Are you tired of Conservatives whining and blaming Obama- what happened to their personal responsibility ?

Nice biased answer choices.
REMEMBER THIS. I MEAN REALLY REMEMBER THIS: Blaming Bush?

This is just a history lesson. It is history and nothing can change it.

The day the Democrats took over was not January 22nd 2009, it was actually January 3rd 2007,the day the Democrats took over the House of Representatives and the Senate, at the very start of the 110th Congress.

The Democratic Party controlled a majority in both chambers for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in 1995.

For those who are listening to the liberals propagating the fallacy that everything is "Bush's Fault", think about this:
January 3rd, 2007, the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress:

The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77
The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%
The Unemployment rate was 4.6%
George Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT MONTHS of JOB CREATION!

Remember that day...
January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee.

The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy?

BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES!
THANK YOU DEMOCRATS (especially Barney) for taking us from 13,000 DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment...to this CRISIS by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac FIASCOES!

(BTW: Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie -starting in 2001 because it was financially risky for the US economy). Barney blocked it and called it a "Chicken Little Philosophy" (and the sky did fall!)
And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac? OBAMA

And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie?
OBAMA and the Democrat Congress, especially BARNEY!!!!

So when someone tries to blame Bush...
REMEMBER JANUARY 3rd, 2007.... THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!"
Bush may have been in the car but the Democrats were in charge of the gas pedal and steering wheel they were driving the economy into the ditch.
Budgets do not come from the White House.. They come from Congress and the party that controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democratic Party. Furthermore, the Democrats controlled the budget process for 2008 & 2009 as well as 2010 & 2011.

In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases.

For 2009 though, Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid bypassed George Bush entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running until Barack Obama could take office. At that time, they passed a massive omnibus spending bill to complete the 2009 budget.

And where was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he signed the omnibus bill as President to complete 2009. Let's remember what the deficits looked like during that period:

If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the 2007 deficit, the last of the Republican budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the fourth straight decline in deficit spending. After that, Democrats in Congress took control of spending, and that includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets.

If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself.

In a nutshell, what Obama is saying is "I inherited a deficit that I voted for, and then I voted to expand that deficit four-fold since January 20th."

"The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living."

you re absolutly right this is a minority that spent reckless made stupid decisions never questioned their leadership now they re paying the price and are looking for somebody to blame from 2000 to 2005 there was a republican congress a republican senate a republican president every spending bill was approved and signed by bush the thruth is the democrats spend raising taxes and the republicans spend borrowing money now mr bush gave not one but two tax cuts then he went and signed a prescription program for the seniors that cost 60 billion a year he knew that in 2012 73 million americans(ww2 baby boomers) were gonna be 65 years old that means 73 million on medicaid s security and free pills . well this year we have to pay 800 billion in medicaid 700 billion in s security 60 billion on prescription another 800 billion was appropiated for defense then we got 450 billion for social programs to help the misfortunate that lost their jobs and houses and 1.2 trillion appropiated for debt principal and interest this loss of jobs was inhereted by obama gasoline prices on oct 2008 while bush was president was $4 15 a gallon .if obama cuts welfare we would have to gate all around our houses build more jails hire more policemen and crime would increase tremendously then they blame obama for immigration who in the hell wants to come to a country were there are no jobs and according to them it will turn communist socialist . then they bitch about the contraceptives yet they dont want more welfare children collecting checks selling crack and commiting crimes .so go figure this people ps/ 93 percent of population pays their bills have a job and most own their own house .
