OBAMA: I ACCEPT THE RESPONSIBILITY ((for the economy), and then blames Bush)
MSNBC ^ | July 14th 2009 | Athena Jones

...“It’s a job I gladly accept,” he said to applause. “I love these folks who helped get us in this mess. And then suddenly say, ‘Oh, this is Obama’s economy.’ That’s fine. Give it to me. My job is to solve problems -- not to stand on the sidelines and carp and gripe. So I welcome the job. I want the responsibility.”....

OK, let’s get this straight!

It’s like e-Bay.

Obama bid on this, and he won it!

“We know how bad it is. Bush is lying to us. It is worse than they say. But we have it right.”

He did NOT inherit it, he bid on it and WON it.

“My job is to solve problems — not to stand on the sidelines and carp and gripe.”

what he really means to say —— his job was to create the problem, blame others, make certain everyone knows it was ‘Bush’s fault’, travel around the world apologzing and blaming the United States of America for whatever.

Truth be told, I do think he is on the sideline - but can’t figure out just how pulls the strings.

Wow. I bet this will just send Bush's approval rating plummeting. Oh, I forgot, Bush isn't President anymore.

Oh well, this will give Obama a big boost in his Rasmussen Poll numbers. They will probably move up from -8.000 to -7.999.

“Nobody I know is buying this BS.”

I live in a huge LibTard Mecca, second only to Berkley, CA.

The ‘tards I work with are completely SILENT on 0bama; you couldn’t shut these broads UP for months before the election, and up through the ‘coronation.’

Now, nary a PEEP as they watch their 401ks TANK and their husbands lose their jobs....

And, GOOD! I wanted them to STFU for months; finally got my wish, LOL! If THIS misery is what it takes to ‘change hearts and minds’ so be it! :)

In a speech to a cheering crowd of more than 1,500 people, who waited for several hours in the hot sun at Macomb Community College to hear him speak, Obama said it was his administration’s job to get the economy back on its feet. “It’s a job I gladly accept,” he said to applause. “I love these folks who helped get us in this mess. And then suddenly say, ‘Oh, this is Obama’s economy.’ That’s fine. Give it to me. My job is to solve problems -- not to stand on the sidelines and carp and gripe. So I welcome the job. I want the responsibility.”

From the article:

"In a speech to a cheering crowd of more than 1,500 people, who waited for several hours in the hot sun at Macomb Community College to hear him speak..."

Huh? I don't even think it hit 80 in our area today. Those 'several hours' must have been gruelling out there in the mid-70s. Damn this global warming...

Sheesh - the lengths these MSM types will go to to make it look like everybody loves Obama!

My favorite trick like this was when Hillary said, “We need to stop playing the blame game like they did during the last twelve years of Reagan/Bush.”

“On the job training” ended with the passing of the porkulus bill earlier this year. He’s owned this mess since then.

I used to say something like that about cool summers and people who railed on about global warming. I would accept the cool weather because they couldn't wax on about how hot it was due to global warming. This is our third cool summer in a row........I'm taking it back. They can talk any time about global warming, and when (if) it goes over 80° I will simply enjoy the warm weather.......
