For Republicans already blaming the economic mess on Obama
saying that since he is 5 months into his term, all of the economic problems are now his, and that are calling for his impeachment because of the economy... does that mean you also agree that 9/11 was Bush's fault because that happened 8 months into his term? After all, if you are blaming a recession that started in December of 2007 on Obama, then your logic dictates that both 9/11 and the USS Cole bombing are the fault of George W. Bush.

Or, does blaming only apply to Democrats and it's okay if you're a Republican?

8. Sad, but true.
According to a lot of posts I see on DU, everything is Obama's responsibility, and thus, if things don't get fixed toot sweet, everything is Obama's fault.

I guess people got so used to Bush's way of "presidentin'" that they think that Obama taking it back to where it should be means that he is just a lazy sop who isn't going to do a damned thing about anything.

3. Of the current $11T debt aren't repugs liable for @95%?
especially Team Bush. Most of it was basically a transfer to their buddies.

4. about $1 trillion total before Reagan
everything since then is Reagan, Bush & Bush... except the small portion since Obama became president.

7. That was a fantastic line
I think I heard similar when somebody posted a video of some wrestler saying that.
