The Blame Game

Who's to blame for the economy? Bankers (34%), Bush (29%), Obama (24%). Of those who blame bankers, Republicans hold an 11 point advantage.

1. Aaaaand of course the solution is to vote the banker's best paid prostitutes in.

As in the case of IN.

2. Which only shows how well the Republican Noise Machine...

...managed to spread the meme that "Obama and the Democrats were 100& responsible for the bailout." :eyes:

3. Obama does deserve some of the blame...for not telling the cons

to fucking stuff it and passing shit with what we needed.

They changed legislation to bend over backwards for the republicans and the fuckers didn't vote for the shit anyway.

We needed a much bigger stimulus but they pulled back to try and get repub votes and got none.

5. Didn't help that he compared them to baseball players

who hadn't won the world series and seemingly approved of their bonuses.

Perhaps the single most tone deaf statement I've heard since Bush I stated that he didn't know what groceries cost.

4. That's incredibly sad.

(if I understand the meaning of "advantage" in this correlation)
People who understand the banking mafia's central role in our national tragedy OUGHT TO BE much more favorable to Democrats instead of Republicans. But Democrats can't woo bankers for their dough and tell the truth on them at the same time, I suppose.
