And this is supposed to inspire confidence in his own leadership abilities? Sounds like the good mayor is trying to deflect criticsm of his own inept administration to that of the national govt, which makes for a convenient target!
Notice the Dem's ability to indentify themselves as victims, "I don't see where I'm better off than I was four years ago"; I'm sure this guy is living on peanut butter sandwiches and macaroni and cheese (or is that cheese and macaroni?).
Maybe we are looking at this all wrong. 4 years ago, George W. Bush was Governor of Texas. Maybe he thinks he would be better off if George W. Bush were still governor over his small town.
