I think you have been misreading our posts. No one is blaming Obama per se for the current economic woes except to the extent he particpated in votes that supported the actions of CRA/Fannie/Freddie/ACORN. And lets face it, other than his days as a community agitator/ACORN trainer and the few months he was actually in the U.S Senate before he abandoned that job to run for President, he has so little experience doing anything of consequence that we could hardly hold him accountable for our current woes.

Where Obama has seen scorn heaped in his direction from all quarters (right, middle and left) is his actions and those of his administration. Between the gloom and doom in order to garner support for his socialist big government programs to his total inability to assemble a cabinet of any credibility or real expertise given the issues of importance to the country. He has surrounded himself with partisans more interested in taking advantage of a good crisis to fulfill their liberal, socialist wish list (some call a stimulus plan).

Two points. First, many of us recognized early on he was out of his element and with an ill-conceived ideology to boot. Second, even if he remotely had his act together would he be strong enough to reign in Pelosi/Reid, et al? Few of us thought so based on his scanty record and we have so far been proven right. Left leaning posters like Hound have been honest enough to admit areas where he has gone astray. Many of the rest of us can't find one thing he has done right.
