Obama Never Is To Blame

If you said Obama has inherited this mess when it comes to the oil spill you are right, but not for the reasons you think. It was not inheriting an oil industry that was under regulated it was decades of heavily regulated oil policy that forces companies to drill off shore because our congress will not let us drill in our own yard,an approximately 100 yard drill area in ANWR, Alaska. Meanwhile Obama's friends in Venezuela, Cuba, and Russia are taking advantage of oil in their own areas. Obama's own party is to blame for not allowing us to drill on land so that we would not be so dependent on foriegn oil. I am not one to blame Obama for this, or his lack of response, or emphasize how many rounds of golf that others did when Bush was in office.

Obama Supporters, at what point does Obama lead and show what he is doing than falling back on what appears to be every liberals favorite excuse for failure, now even in their own marriages, blame it on Bush. Two stimulus packages, cash for clunkers, and several bailouts later and instead of admitting that was not the answer, Bush is blamed.

I did not hear bush blame the poor infrastructure in New Orleans, that made things worse during Hurricane Katrina, on the decades of corruption and lack of leadership by the Mayor of the city and Governor of the state that prevented money going to fortify the Levees. Federal funds went there, yet there were approximately 50 failures of those levees.

It is true that Obama does not deserve all the blame but, he did spend trillions of dollars in a short period of time and was in charge when we lost are AAA credit rating. There has been no effort to share any of the blame for where we are. It is as if Obama is sitting at home like you and me and watching things happen. What we need is a president that will honor his/her oath of defending the constitution. This will help the economy because the nature of the constitution is to restrain government from interfering in the business of the people and protect their rights so they are free to pursue that business. The constitution is for regulating the government and to stop the government from regulating the people.

With our current president, there always seems to be someone else to blame. Leadership does not look for someone to blame but, offers solutions and works towards them.
