Compared to Bush, Obama is a sniveling whiney loser. Bush did his job and never blamed anyone.
Oh really?
Seems you're doing a revision of history because the bush boy blamed a lot of things on Bill Clinton. In fact it became a joke with us liberals because the bush boy always blamed someone else, mostly Clinton, for what the bush boy did.
The one I find especially funny is the one where the bush boy says 2 hundred thousand jobs were lost in 6 months and it's Clinton's fault yet the last month of the bush boy's presidency the bush boy lost 850 thousand jobs. In just ONE month.
Bush Administration Blames Bill Clinton for Deficit*Pensito Review
Obama does acknowledge that Bush is responsible for the economy, that he started two wars and that the atmosphere at MMS was under his watch.
For those who need reminding here's a list of some of the things the bush boy blamed on Clinton:
North Korea:
Clinton reached a bilateral agreement that failed. -GW Bush
"The United States tried direct dialogue with the North Koreans in the '90s, and that resulted in the North Koreans signing onto agreements that they then didn't keep." Condi Rice
Economy:
"Two-and-a-half years ago, we inherited an economy in recession." GW Bush
Middle East:
"It wasn't all that long ago where a summit was called [referring to Clinton's summit] and nothing happened, and as a result we had significant intefadeh in the area." GW Bush
Re 9/11 (a three-fer, encompassing Clinton, Carter and Reagan):
"They looked at our response after the hostage crisis in Iran, the bombings of the Marine barracks in Lebanon, the first World Trade Center attack, the killing of American soldiers in Somalia, the destruction of two U.S. embassies in Africa, and the attack on the USS Cole. They concluded that free societies lacked the courage and character to defend themselves against a determined enemy." GW Bush
Job losses:
"In the last six months of the prior administration, more than 200,000 manufacturing jobs were lost. We're turning that around." GW Bush (fun fact, at the time in his administration, there were job losses of 913,000)
In 2008, re the economy:
A senior administration official says the budgetary problems stem from what is believed to be inadequate defense, intelligence and homeland security resources that were handed down from Clinton.
When they say Bush never blamed anyone they mean they just dont remember it happening therefore it never did. Republicans are funny that way
