Is it Bush's fault, Obama's fault or the US voters fault? Please explain.

Some people voted for Obama. Are You happy.

people need to stop believing there are 2 parties. think about all the secrets government keeps. so a puppet is elected, enters office, and is told all the secrets. LOL! BS!!

Most of us. The presidents are just front men. They are powerful, sure, so long as they maintain the status quo. There is rarely if ever a significant difference.

plenty of blame to go around...

Country was already in decline because of him before Obama stepped in, so i guess you could say those who were stupid enough to vote for Bush in the first place!

and Obama

Voters...MUST demand better government.... start by voting old rascals out of office...
in 2012.... bark

American voters, and the left wing news media that failed utterly to vet this clown, or provide any objective investigative reporting, and destroyed anyone who dared to ask questions

"The specifics of your question leads me to speculate", The voters are more responsible, most don't engage in research but instead are lazy and are swayed easily...

The danger to America is not Barack 0bama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency.

It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an 0bama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president.

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. 0bama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America.

Blaming the prince of fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack 0bama. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.

Absolutely!

Thanks

Those who voted for him (some were my closest friends, friendship was saved), were sold on the snake oil salesman's charms, never mind that the snake oil did really work. I never saw a country so mesmerized by a tabula rasa who promised them the moon, the sun and the sky.

Simple to those who know anything how the government works....Presidents do not hinder or help the economy or control spending. It's controlled by the Congress and Senate...Congress controls the spending, National Debt area "BUT" the Senate must also okay all bills, as with the Senate they make the laws, rules and Congress must also okay the laws. Presidents can suggest, try to veto but they can be overridden by the Congress & Senate as was the case from Jan 2006 till Dec 2010 when the Senate & Congress was under full veto proof control by the Democrats (fact). The American had any knowledge of how government functions they will understand the power of the National Debt, spending and recovery is in their hands and not the person in the White House.........only President Regan had the ability to go over party lines to make Democrats and Republicans to agree to do things for the benefit of America not the party.

Who ever the Hell Obama really is He's a LIAR, :Liar,:LIAR

You can go around blaming others but at the end of the day in a democracy the buck stops with you. The only people more responsible for the problems of America than the American voter is the American non voter.

Still...not funny.

Your posts are consistently incoherent and banal. Please tell your nurse to up the meds.

It's not the US Voter's fault either, it's the way things are rigged. It's how they buy themselves into office, how a good fiscal year with lots of profit is more important than human well-being and civil liberties. The rich want to stay rich and they don't care about anybody underneath them. And don't tell me that this is not about how rich somebody is, because that is EXACTLY what it is about.

All of the above but Obama currently has the job which makes him the lightning rod for negative comment.

We vote these greedy psychopaths in! They go to Washington for prestige, payola and privilege; and they retire rich.
National politicians need to be stripped of all special privilege and, most especially, reduced to one term. This would bring a new day to America.
U.S. Representatives and Senators represent the government — not the American people
As long as the political system is viewed by the American people as having two parties, elections will be manipulated and the people will be deceived. This is an absurd front for what Americans believe to be a two-party political system. It covers fraud and helps charlatans and psychopaths cling to power. But the reality is that everybody is wearing the same hat with a different color.
Governments always silently make war on their own citizens behind a propaganda front so as to alert as few people as possible. The less resistance there is the better.
One of the fastest ways to clear the mental fog is to realize that the two-party political system is a fallacy. Both parties are working toward a common goal. Anyone clinging to the illusion will be deceived to his grave.

To be fair it's all of the above. Although I don't necessarily agree that it would be the US voters fault because as far as i'm concerned US voters really have very little to do with the outcome of elections, in the same sense that the president really has very little power over what happens in the country. So while it can be seen as all of the above, more often then not I want to say it's none of the above.

Yes, it's ultimately the voters fault. We have allowed the education system to be taken over by the government so we are dumbed down. We don't take time to learn about any of the greedy pin heads who run for these offices; we decide through the party. We allow elected bureaucrats to disrespect the constitution and disregard their oath. We permit our presidents to be elected with a system that is nothing more than a 2 billion dollar beauty pageant instead of the responsible selection process our Founding Fathers wanted us to have, so now, instead of having stalwart executives for presidents, we have power hungry elected politicians.

They fall for it every time.

unfortunately most of the voters here are a bunch of damned party sheep.

voters placed bush in office and they placed obama into office. the voters also elected congress. so remember who ahs the power in america

you friggin stupid ass morons who couldnt pick the right person if God himself came down and told you who to choose

We only vote on the slate of pre selected candidates.
How do you guarantee that the politician you bought wins the election?
You ensure that Every candidate running is bought, so no matter who wins, so do you.

my candidate cannot be bought

Obama lied and the economy died!

Bunch of air headed fools.

Ultimately, the blame lands squarely on the voters who aren't diligent about who they choose to represent them. I feel that the current government is working against me and therefore, I will actively work to change the leadeship and direction of my nation!

Since we're the ones that elect these knuckleheads. But I should have hit obummer. Since he's making laws and bypassing the constitution and in 2010 we the people sent a message to obummer and he's pretty much said -u-k you!

Who elected these folks if not us? When I see our choices each time I go to the ballot I cringe...I know America has better choices than we are presented. Shoot I have people cut my hair that are more knowledgeable about the state of this nation than many of these elected officials. Corruption in the upper ranks needs to be dealt with and soon.

The voters should have demanded better choice or voted for the independent during the last 3 election. Bush and barry suck and so does dumney. Hopefully we can elect paul or gary johnson.

The fault lies with the US Voters. I mean we keep putting these dumb people in office that dont know what the hell they are doing.

Americans across the board, and not just the electorate, have a really tough time taking responsibility for their phuck-ups. That's why they keep repeating the same stupid mistakes over and over and over and over again.

America's political system is broken beyond electoral remediation. Anyone who WASN'T in denial would recognize this. The fact that a third party has not become viable only demonstrates that the system cannot be fixed by using the system.

We can screw it up, we can fix it... the question is how?
