Obama: Stop Blaming Me For the Economy, I Just Got Here in January
NRO ^ | July 01, 2009 | Jim Geraghty

Posted on 07/02/2009 11:50:52 AM PDT by RobinMasters

Obama, moments ago, responding to unemployment hitting the highest it's been in 26 years: "It took us years to get into this mess, and it will take more than a few months to get us out."

This ignores the fact that after the stimulus passed, the economy has not merely not "gotten out out of the mess," but the mess has gotten worse.

Obama hasn’t a clue.

He try to get as much mileage out of “the mess wasn’t mine” for as long as he can.

People are starting to wake up...although they should have woken up much sooner than this.

You can fast forward these comments to October 2012.

"I didn't cause this on-going depresssion".

It took 233 years of Federal gubmint spending to equal what Barry has spent. So he’s got that going for him....

Hey Barry, you’re the one who started all that “Change We Can Believe In” stuff, so don’t blame your voters if they believed what you said!

Then what was the whole point of this graph that Obama put out? He certainly seemed to think that it would only take a few months for the Stimulus to save us.

Look up who makes most of the photovoltaic cells in the world. Hint: don’t look here. Wind turbine tech, also.

Maybe he’s talking about laying sod — that’s a green job. But wait! The illegals have THAT sewn up too!

OK, you nailed it, he’s lying.

With all the thrashing about with the economy he's planning on doing, I'd be surprised that any company was hiring anyone before the final taxes and medical insurance rules are set. No one would want to have a new employee if there was a risk that employee would have to be covered in a medical plan even after you fire him.

Mr. Obama, your reckless spending is doing nothing but making matters worse!

Just wait until the Stimulus money REALLY starts flowing, just about the time Inflation skyrockets.

Didn’t Obama ram through a stimulus package several months ago? Didn’t it design just short of $1 trillion dollars in spending to turn things around? Isn’t the economy still suffering extreme stress? Aren’t we still losing jobs?

Our _res__dent has some splainin’ to do.

Until that stimulus package went through, he could claim it was all Bush’s fault. Sorry, $1 trillion in spending, and no impact whatsoever? Cry me a river Barry. Enjoy the meltdown. It’s all yours baby.

What's 0 complaining about, he's the one who set up high expectations for his term:

Because if we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on Earth. This was the moment -- this was the time -- when we came together to remake this great nation so that it may always reflect our very best selves, and our highest ideals.

Just curious if you felt the same way after 9/11?
