Who's To Blame?

It is so interesting to me that the president is asked who would be to blame if people didn't get their Social Security checks, or the military didn't get paid due to this debt crisis. He promptly lays it at the door of the house republicans, and the media don't ask him why he wouldn't be to blame since he is the one who has refused everything they've offered and has not offered anything himself.

In the very n next sentence he goes on to say that he doesn't want to blame anyone and then follows that with more minutes of blame.

We have a president who is quite good on blame and very poor on responsibility. I would say you have to wonder how such a man who knows nothing of responsibility could become president. I can see how he got other places in government. He's never had to or seemingly been able to be responsible with anything else in his life except maybe community organizing, so what else could a person who can't run a business, or hold an executive position in a company do? Well run for office, after all in government incompetence doesn't seem to matter at all.

Where you would think and hope some of the most competent people in the nation would be the ones running things it seems to have turned out to be just the other way around.

It is also surprising to me that the whole time he denigrate the republicans he acts like he's trying to work out a deal with them and they just won't do it. I can't think of many that would in those circumstances. For some reason the republicans all act like they're taking the hire ground by not criticizing their opponents or showing how they're failing or are to blame, then they wonder why they come out of it looking like the bad guys.

Unfortunately the republicans seem to have no spine at all when it comes to conflict and standing up for themselves and what they believe. Every time they cave in they behave again as though they are taking the higher ground, but the way it is spun is that they realized they were wrong, and again they don't even defend themselves in this.

Maybe the republicans just view their position as pacifiers. They are supposed to look like they're fighting for the people and against big government so at least the people feel like there's someone there in Washington for them. They must realize that if WE THE PEOPLE, came to realize they were all for bigger government and socialism to one degree or another there might be a revolt.

It helps to keep people docile as long as they feel there are at least some people fighting for their position.

Obama sounds more than willing to not only let the country to into default, but if possible to drive it into one and then surprise surprise he'll even find a way to blame it on the republicans and won't take an ounce of responsibility for it.

It is rather like watching a British comedy, where the man says, "I'm not saying your stupid..... Stupid, though you are stupid, but person I think you're very bright, you dim wit." What the president did today was just that obvious and it was equally obvious that the media didn't call him out on it in their questions. They just ate it up and faithfully reported every word he said. Well maybe they reported them faithfully, unless of course he made a gaff or the like in which case I'm sure damage control would be in overdrive as it always is.

It is time some put the pressure on the president for a little responsibility and compromise. He is a man who knows nothing about compromise or working with people. He is a narcissist. It is either his way or no way and then of course in his mind and the media's it's the other sides fault because they didn't give the spoiled child president everything he wanted.

Sometimes I feel like I'm watching 12 year olds in charge of the nation. They think the money comes out of thin air and they can spend as much as they want and the citizens will just have more to give. There is almost no concept of adult responsibility. The few sane voices like Paul Ryan, Michele Bachmann, Sara Palin, Rick Perry, and a few others are laughed off as irrelevant or extremists that certainly no one is going to back.

Maybe the president considers responsibility extremist, but it is clearly just what it is RESPONSIBLE.

We need to get these people out of office as quickly as we can. At this point it's beginning to look as though the next election may be too late. They're all determined to drive the United States under so they can "TRANSFORM" the United States.

It would seem they've read the founding father enough to understand that if we lose our liberty we won't get back and they're depending on the ignorance of the American people to let them take our freedom thinking we've never lost it before and thus assume it can't happen now. Our founders understood only too well that our liberty could be lost. It was the reason they recognized he right to own and BEAR firearms. It was there hope that we WHEN, not IF the time came when the government started to turn on the people, IF the people still had the will to keep their liberty that they would also have the means.

Thankfully it has not come to that yet, but the American people need to get busy putting pressure on our leaders to begin acting responsibly. Why do we have Harry Reid, Barbara Boxer, Lynn Woolsey, Diane Feinstein, and many others back in office? Did they really do such a great job that we want them to do more of the same?!

Let's get rid of the ones that only know how to spend our money, but know nothing of responsibility. It is a game to them, it is LIFE and liberty to us!

This blame thing has to stop. The president needs to be called on it when he does it as do any others. GET THE PROBLEM OF OUT OF CONTROL SPENDING SOLVED!
