Obama's New Tack: Blaming Bush
washingtonpost ^ | Saturday, March 14,

Posted on 03/14/2009 12:00:31 AM PDT by JoeProBono

In his inaugural address, President Obama proclaimed "an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn-out dogmas that for far too long have strangled our politics." It hasn't taken long for the recriminations to return -- or for the Obama administration to begin talking about the unwelcome "inheritance" of its predecessor.

“The truth is that 98 percent of his speeches are about the future, and 2 percent are about inheritance,” Emanuel said. “Whereas I think for Republicans it’s 2 percent about the future, and 98 percent hope that the people have amnesia.”

talk about irony!

As someone who has been critical of some of Bush’s policies, we are two months into this administration and it’s enough to make one vomit.

Not ironical at all, however it is a total crock of horse hockey!

Has everyone forgotten that the House, which controls spending, and the Senate have been in Democrat hands since 2006?

New Tack?

Heck, for the last 8.2 years the only thing that ANY democrat candidate, for any position has done is blame Bush.

If Bush’s spending was so bad, why continue it in hyper mode? 0 must think we are stupid. Oh, yea, 52% are.

Very true. Even when President Bush is gracious towards Senator Byrd...

Wow.. how can this guy lie so much with a strait face. Typical marxist double speak. Pledges to end “false promises, the recriminations and worn-out dogmas”. Funny, that’s about all we’ve seen out of him since he started his run for president. That, and grand old Chicago style corruption.

It's a time-tested technique among shysters and con-artists. Direct your false promises toward the weak of intellect, and don't worry that intelligent people (a minority, at all events) can see right through you. Works every time.

“Deepen, exacerbate existing problems, crises, differences, and if they don’t exist, create them or convincingly claim that they exist, and then deepen, exacerbate them...and profit [politically, ideologically and even financially] the most from them in any way you can, and, in the resulting chaos, blame our enemies for the whole thing.” — Vladimir Ilich Ulianov (Lenin)

Sure does...if one does not believe it just look closely at obama and his administration.

This guy is a broken record.

"By any measure," he said during a March 4 event calling for government-contracting reform, "my administration has inherited a fiscal disaster."

It's inherited from a DEMOCRAT CONGRESS and a homosexual brothel owner Barney Frank who refused to stop the loans that make his buddies billions and him millions in his back pocket and the congress that legislated us into this problem

The truth is that 98 percent of his speeches are about the future, and 2 percent are about inheritance
Good article, shows how Emmanuel tries to Rahm his lie of "inheritance" into the brains of followers of The One when they inherited from themselves.

Kinda like "I am the one we have been waiting for"

They say that fanaticism can be defined as "doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result each time."

The Kenyan sort of backed off on the bush-bashing for a few days - that is until the winds of discontent with obamaland started to surface.

To wit, he has again ducked behind his perceived "safe haven" of bashing Bush.

CommieBama and his entire corral of comrades are truly the same as a junior high school class playing "president".

Note to CommieBama: George ain't the President anymore...YOU ARE! You're the one making the current mess, destroying our economy, and indebting our families for generations to come.

You're the one trying to redistribute the hard earned money to malcontents who think "work" is a dirty word.

You're the one hiding your birth origin and other facts from the public.

You're the one telling us to cut back and lower the thermostats while you sit in the White House using our taxes to pay Stevie Wonder and Earth, Wind & Fire to entertain your "friends" while they enjoy $100 per pound Japanese beef with the thermostate on 85 in the Oval office.

CommieBama, you're a Frat Boy with a postage stamp resume' and consumed with "entitlement syndrome".

Please resign.
