Media Furiously Spinning for Obama ‘With His Poll Numbers Dropping’ - Big Journalism
- “With his poll numbers dropping, President Obama defended Muslims for wanting to build a mosque a stone’s throw from the worst Islamic terrorist attack in American history.”
- “With his poll numbers dropping, President Obama shot a 48 today on the back 9 at Congressional Country Club while 30,000 more American lost their jobs.”
- “With his poll numbers dropping, President Obama blamed George W. Bush for his poll numbers dropping.”

Your Say
Wait - Barney Frank said the problem was that President Obama didn't blame the Republicans enough! More blame, accusations, and finger-pointing would have kept those poll numbers up. And one thing we know is that when everything is going from bad to calamity the people demand that their leaders sit around blaming each other, because everyone knows the one solution to any disaster is blame.

I am so tired of the blame game. When is someone going to get some balls and have accountability by saying, " the buck stops here."

Well, the buck WOULD have stopped here, but George W. Bush STOLED it when Obama was on the back nine at the Congressional Country Club. But you didn't hear about THAT did you? No, you did not!

Oh.. oh... I know, I know /wildly gesturing from the back row.
When/if something FINALLY goes right, Obama will say, "the buck stops here." Until then, "Bush did it."

That will never happen; thanks to the stimulus, we don't have any more bucks to stop here.

I find your use of the word "buck" in conjunction with our President offensive. Raaaaaacist!

Actually, the GOP is partially to blame for the current problems of the USA. If it wasn't an unholy alliance between those who either are, or are bought and paid for by, billionaires and far-Right fundamentalist lunatics, and therefore had fielded candidates for President and VP that were acceptable to the majority of Americans - then there might well be a Republican President now.
