Democrats took over congress in Jan, 2007 and held control for 4 years. Do they share any blame? What about all that spending before Bush even became President? Our problem has been years in the making.
Hugo Chávez says Obama is 'a clown and an embarrassment'

Did you feel Democrats and Chavez shared common ground when Chavez called for the destruction of America and President Bush?
(Pretty easy to make stupid facile comments huh?)
Ive been being facious because I remember the Republican comments when Chavez attacked Bush.
Right again......On this issue, Republicans and others find common ground with Chavez......the Destruction of America and Obama go together like hands and gloves.
Who isn't holding him responsible?
He did not CREATE this mess. Do you disagree with that?
Of course not.....Congress is only held responsible when Republicans hold a slim majority in one house.....everything is the Republicans fault....
Even when when the Democrats held the Senate and the House, with unbeatable majorities , and the Presidency, they STILL weren't held responsible for anything....
go figure...
Not Legion. Vader is simply a new poster.
Not quite, republicans were "responsible" for everything even when the Democrats held super majorities in both houses.
I blame both parties, this mess has been building for decades, increasing with each new President who wanted to claim "more <insert minority group of the day here> own houses than ever before!"
Sure thing, Damo. So, I'm guessing you agree w/ bravo that Obama "created" the economic mess?
You're really such an insufferable right-wing hack sometimes....
Of course......a Democrat congress created the mess, along with existing Democratic policy that was already law...... it was holding the reins of government for the last 2 years of the Bush admin....all the Chairmanships, the budget, the oversight,....the regulating power, legislating law, ....... everything.....
A US President isn't a dictator ....he is but 1/3 of the government, the only power he has is the veto and that would do nothing more bring government to a standstill........with hindsight, that might have been the better course, but we'll never know.....
Nope I already answered that question. You really don't pay any attention sometimes....
Is it your position that hacks didn't try to blame every instance where Obama didn't get his way on republicans during the first two years of his tenure?
This is a complete contradiction to the argument that you just made - that I was rewriting history by not saying that Obama created the mess.
It seems like you just want to blame whatever Democrat seems handy. Do you realize how much you just contradicted yourself?
This all started from a statement by Chávez.
"Focus on governing your country, which you've turned into a disaster".....
Obama was not president when the downturn started....we all know that and we call all agreed with that.....
just like agree with Hugo.......Obama's attempt at governing the country, has turned into a disaster.....
and that disaster is Obamas responsibility as of January 2009....todays economy is his fault and no one else's.....
Even foreign leaders put the responsibility where it belongs....
Unemployment is down, the stock market is up, interest rates are down, inflation is limited.... Id say its starting to look much better.
Because that is exactly what you're doing.....you can't do it and 60 seconds later, talk like its a surprise we mention it.....
That's the worst spin I have ever heard.
But I'm glad you realize that you completely contradicted yourself, and that you were wrong when you said I was rewriting history.
