WHAT A DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES: 7/09 OBAMA SAYS IT'S HIS ECONOMY; 8/10 - HE BLAMES BUSH!

THE HILL VIA GATEWAY - WHO HAS MORE: A year after claiming the economy as his own, Obama points finger

President Obama this summer has repeatedly blamed George W. Bush for the nation’s economic woes, a year after he took ownership of the economy and criticized those who “carp and gripe.”

The White House’s effort to tie congressional Republicans to Obama’s predecessor comes less than three months before the midterm elections. But the president’s campaign speeches this summer contrast to a speech he delivered in Michigan last year when his approval ratings were 17 points higher.

During a July 14, 2009, address in Warren, Mich., Obama said, “Now, my administration has a job to do, as well, and that job is to get this economy back on its feet. That's my job. And it’s a job I gladly accept. I love these folks who helped get us in this mess and then suddenly say, ‘Well, this is Obama’s economy.’ That’s fine. Give it to me. My job is to solve problems, not to stand on the sidelines and carp and gripe.”

At the time, the AP wrote, “With four simple words -- ‘Give it to me’ – President Barack Obama took possession of the economy.”

Throughout this year, Obama has blamed Bush and the criticism has intensified this month.
OBAMA HASN'T GOT A DAMN THING RIGHT.
  • AS SENATOR, HE WAS WRONG ON THE SURGE.
  • AS POTUS HE WAS WRONG ON THE PORKULUS,
  • HE WAS WRONG ON OBAMACARE,
  • HE WAS WRONG ON THE GROUND ZERO MOSQUE.
  • AND SO ON.
OBAMA'S A LOSER.

ONLY WE'RE PAYING THE PRICE.

WE CAN CHANGE THINGS FOR THE BETTER THIS NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP!
