(CNSNews.com)  First Lady Michelle Obama said Friday that her husband, President Barack Obama, was not pointing fingers and blaming anyone for the economic crisis happening when he took office. But one day before, on Thursday, Obama blamed the policies of the previous president for the ongoing weak economy. 
Appearing at a Las Vegas campaign stop on Friday, Mrs. Obama said that the president did not blame anyone else for the economic crisis he inherited. 
He inherited an economy in rapid decline, she said. But instead of pointing fingers, instead of placing blame, your president got to work because he was thinking about folks like my dad and like his grandmother.

    Oh shut the hell up.
Now we have to hear excuses for the president responsible for nothing whose greatest skill is his ability to blame others for his own failings.

    Well, us ‘folks’ out here are just about sick of you and your hubby’s act, Michelle. You will be able to stop trying to rectify this awful situation that someone else created in about 8 days.

    Who on earth could she be trying to sell this to? There is nobody who paid so little attention that they would even listen to this.

    Anticipation is very anxiously making me wait for the day I can feel proud of my country (again) once this monstrosity that is MO is gone none-too-soon from within our midst.

    The drones will believe her. She’s as much a pathological liar as her husband. I want them to go away as soon as possible.

    All is not lost, Michelle. You have a large pension, and several high tech billionaires will throw millions at your husband. Now go have a 64oz. Coke, and a large bag of chips.

    He inherited an economy in rapid decline,NO, HE DID NOT! He actively campaigned for and actively sought out the position of POTUS. Once he gained the position, he quickly showed us he was not up to the task. Is the job tougher than he thought? Absolutely, be he didnt inherit it, he asked for it.

    Perhaps her and the doofus finally figured out the Democratically controlled Congress controlled by Looney Tunes Pelosi did an awful lot of spending. If so, I'll bet it was a huge “oh sh@t” moment.
