WASHINGTON — President Obama has almost run out of people to blame for the sad state of the union, Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., told WND.
After five years, he can’t blame Congress or the previous president.
So he is blaming the voters who gave him a Congress he doesn’t like.
Referring to the president’s threat to increasingly bypass Congress by issuing executive orders, Huelskamp observed, “If you say you’re going to go around the duly elected Congress, you’re blaming the voters.”
The plain-spoken Kansan told WND it is as if the president is telling the American people, “Hey, you know what? I don’t like the people you sent to me, and I’m going to ignore them.”
As President Obama prepared to give his State of the Union address before a national television audience Tuesday night, Huelskamp offered his own take on the country’s condition.
“The real state of the union is weak,” he said.
The congressman believes the nation weaker than when the president took office, and that Obama is really hoping people will forget he has been president for five years.

Anyone still think Romney would have been just as bad?
i showed my dermatologist a picture of obama and he said you need to see a herpetologist and he said see a helminthologist and he said worst case of herpes i have ever seen
I am blaming the voters too ....the voters that gave us Obama. Twice.....
It was their vertical division, between the states and the federal government they created that was supposed to be the bulwark of our liberties.
Absent a senate of the states, the emergence of an Obama was only a matter of time.
Obama doesn’t like congress, America, Americans in general and white Americans in particular.
He doesn’t seem to care at all for Christians, patriots, self supporting independant people who actually work for a living, gun owners, heterosexuals, or military veterans.
) It was considerable anguish when I realized I could not, in good conscience, cast my ballot for the Republican candidate for the first time since I turned 21. I voted third party, for a man who I felt would have been a very good president, too bad you did not do the same. Not only that, but most importantly, as a Christian, I fear that many vulnerable souls might have been lost forever from the Living God, trapped and deceived in cult, that is very Islamic in its nature. There is little difference indeed between the Islamic Jesus and the Mormon Jesus. I could not choose a man to rule over this country who was leader in this godforsaken cult; it just was too monstrous of a sin.
With each passing day, more and more like a dictator
Memememememememe. That’s what it’s all about: What the “leader” wants/thinks he should have. He’s in the wrong country for that. Maybe Cuba would be better?
i am blaming the people who are to blame
I understand why you voted third party, but in 2012 our next President was either going to be Obama or Romney. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Romney supporter. I spent plenty to get ABR nominated, but the voters had other ideas.
Voting for Conservatives values by voting for a third party candidate accomplished nothing, because none of them had even a slight chance of winning. The only effect a third party vote had was to make it easier for Obama to win, regardless of the reasons. Once we were stuck with Romney, I wasn't going to do that. The best we could hope for was a Romney win to stop Obama, and a GOP Congress to stop Romney, but neither happened.
As to whether Romney and a Republican Congress would have been worse than what we have, I don't see how.
Well said and congratulations. I wish I could say I did the same. There are two votes for which I’ve asked God’s forgiveness.

Obama will say that Voters are so dumb that he'll be canceling the 2016 elections for the good of the USA.
Herpes? I thought herpetology was the study of snakes...oh, wait...
