The blame? That's real simple. Every sitting POTUS taking office from 1989 - present, the GOP so called majorities elected in 1994 and sold us out in 1995, a majority of both DEM and GOP house and senate members for the past 40 nearly 50 years. The majorities changed but the agenda's did not. The GOP has been every bit as guilty on the oil issue as the DEMS. What is worse is Liberals in a few states have chosen McCain as the GOP choice. Either way we loose. The DEMs get another Bush like Stooge to do their work for them and blind Wepublicants cheering him on.
Well that’s the attitude that elects Obama. Good luck with that.
