Does Obama get blamed for TARP too?

Yes indeed he does. He vote "Aye" to pass it in a coequal branch of government. He could have also joined in the fight to reform Fannie and Freddie years before so it would have enough votes to get through cloture and instead the legislation died...it was being supported only on a party line.

You are not only getting the most basic facts wrong about the situation, but also don't seem to understand the basics of our system of government...I don't say that to be disparaging toward you, it's just the way it is based on your comments.

All I can say is WOW. The cognitive dissonance of those who wish to hold Bush blameless is breathtaking. To say Obama deserves the blame for TARP is simply astounding. I could agree with that if it was part of a larger point about all the politicians in 2008.

I’m in a good mood today so I’ll ask you, what basic facts did I get wrong? Be precise. I am.
