32. I 'understand' what was written, I just don't agree with it.

Why is it so necessary for some to always BLAME Obama for every thing?

Obama can not FORCE the bankers to lend out their money to folks that they do not want to - BLAME them, not Obama.

Obama is not the one that got our economy into the shit-hole, Bush did! Where are the folks BLAMING Bush for the mess instead of Obama.

And President Obama HAS made it clear that those things listed in the other DUer's comment are problems.

Just because someone doesn't 'hear' everything that Obama says doesn't mean it hasn't been said, and just because apparently some folks haven't been paying attention to all the things Obama HAS done for the poor, homeless/jobless, women, minorities, etc doesn't mean that he hasn't been getting things done!

Honestly reading some of the things 'some folks' say sometimes seems like some folks not been paying attention to anything that Obama has actually done!

Have a great day.
