Wow, with headlines like that, after the election mind you, you would think George Bush was still in office...

Wow. Obama must be to blame.

For some of it, surely. But, rest your little heart, since he won Tuesday, we can look forward to four more years of Bush being blamed for everything.

It couldn't possibly be due to the cowardly negligence and obstreperousness of the Congress that's failed to address the budget in any real terms... Nah. Or simply infrastructure failings in the wake of a rather unprecedented storm. And so on...

Nah, it's due to the election results two days ago.

Folks -- I simply beg everyone to drop the partisan BS and all work together to restore this great Nation.

In fairness, Obama is the Anti-Christ...

...and just posting a list like this isn't a great conversation starter.

Nah, were he the Anti-Christ he would have won Every state...

Most of those things listed have absolutely nothing to do with Obama being elected and only have relevence to each other in a mind that wants it to be there. Sorta like saying the economy will do worse if a team from the NFC wins the Super Bowl. It is garbage.

Some people are awfully butt-hurt after the election. This is called 'acting out'. Hopefully it will pass.

 

[arnisador]

I don't have that much hope, I'm afraid.

Maybe... this is from Matt Stoller, Progressive Democrat, ActBlue Advisor and MSNBC Producer: So he is most definitely PRO Democrat and this is his take:

Under Bush, economic inequality was bad, as 65 cents of every dollar of income growth went to the top 1 percent. Under Obama, however, that number is 93 cents out of every dollar. That’s right, under Barack Obama there is more economic inequality than under George W. Bush. And if you look at the chart above, most of this shift happened in 2009-2010, when Democrats controlled Congress. This was not, in other words, the doing of the mean Republican Congress. And it’s not strictly a result of the financial crisis; after all, corporate profits did crash, like housing values did, but they also recovered, while housing values have not.

It is not that Obama was stymied by Congress, or was up against a system, or faced a massive crisis, which led to the shape of the economy we see today. Rather, Obama had a handshake deal to help the middle class offered to him by Paulson, and Obama said no.

SO... I'm not so quick to lay all the blame on Bush, or Obama, or Congress. I think that The Bush Administration Started it, that Obama himself allowed it to continue, and his apologists are blaming congress.

I agree wholeheartedly we need to put the Partisan BS aside and work together to fix things, But thats EVEN IF that means putting blame where blame is due and you don't want to. For both sides.

*edit* and when I say "you" I'm referring to the reader, not JKS or any other specific poster.
