The Democratic George W. Bush

The buck stops over there. Everytime something goes wrong, Barry Obama blames his staff rather than accept responsibility himself. Who hired these fuck ups anyway?

So, for those keeping track at home, that's ten instances of Obama publicly blaming his staff for various screw-ups.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!

(You of course could also add Austan Goolsbee, Samantha Power, Gordon Fischer, and retired Gen. Tony McPeak.)

That would be 14. We will continue to keep track.

And for the record, yet again, let me state that I find Sen. Obama's staff unfailingly competent and polite, courteous and efficient, and I once again express my regret that Sen. Obama does apparently not feel the same way.

Well, at least we know that nothing much will change if Obama manages to win the White House. Oh, well one thing will...Democrats will defend his buck passing and Republicans will remember that the buck is supposed to stop with the POTUS.

It seems as if Tapper is stretching a bit to create a larger list. Unless, of course, you'd like to argue that Obama is so forceful that he maintains 100% mind control over every campaign staffer.

One example..


In January, during MSNBC's presidential debate in Las Vegas, Obama was asked about a document put together by one of his South Carolina staffers that listed comments made by the Clinton campaign that some perceived to be attempting to stoke racial fires. "In hindsight, do you regret pushing this story?” asked Tim Russert.

"Our supporters, our staff get overzealous," Obama said. "They start saying things that I would not say, and it is my responsibility to make sure that we're setting a clear tone in our campaign.”


Very weak buck passing as example of Obama "badness", imo.

Well, I guess if you don't count that he won't be blaming other people for destroying other countries which hadn't threatened us, standing around watching an entire US city drown, shredding the US Constitution, driving the economy into a ditch or debasing America's standing in the world by kidnapping, torturing and murdering innocent people. Glad to see you still have your sense of discernment.

I'd rather have blame properly assigned than not even acknowledge that anything was wrong, which is the typical GOP MO.
