Dems expolit oil rig explosion that killed 11 Americans to raise $$$…
they say, “Obama administration has vowed to keep a boot on the throat of BP…”
Do we need this kind of jack-booted language?
I guess the Dems need it.

Obama seems to have developed a political tic. You could call it BBTS, Blame Bush Tourette Syndrome. You could call it Post-Bush-Derangement-Syndrome. Every time Obama gives a public speech, he seems to blame his predecessors, especially if it looks like he’s blaming Bush, but more often than not, he’s assigning blame to predecessors while the actual people behind decisions he’s criticizing with respect, in particular, to economic policy are people in the administration and government right now, ie. Bernanke for one. While the dems are trying to sneak in the illegal (they’ll just change the law, right?) diversion of TARP funds to a Stimulus II, Obama is busy blaming the “hasty” formulation of TARP one. Wasn’t it the DEMS and the likes of Bernanke that formed that thing and dragged every Republican along for the ride?
Thinking this is just an economic flavored tic? Look at the new rhetoric blaming the prior execution of the Afghanistan war. Obama, again, blamed the prior administration for the current situation. Who was actually in charge of that? Who runs the wars? Isn’t that someone like the incumbent Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates? Wasn’t he running things since 2006? Isn’t he now Obama’s man on the job?

One response: what is he not taking responsibility for exactly?
I was compelled to reply: For one, he’s responsible for campaigning on Afghanistan as “the war we should be focused on” and then dithering for months on end before reaching the foregone conclusion to engage in a half hearted “slurge” but then history is full of examples of feckless leaders who stalled and succeeded. Wait- no it isn’t.
It remains to be seen whether our troops are constrained to adopt a Vietnam style policy of “contain and suppress but don’t win.”
For the Cadets who nodded off during the speech, don’t feel bad – it wasn’t exactly the Gettysburg Address.

Obama says “wait” one more time. Now he has asked congress to hold up hearings, “until the Army has completed its investigation.” Obama said it was “unthinkable” that a fellow service-member could have pulled the trigger at Ft. Hood.
Really? I agree with him. Of course it’s unthinkable! This was no “fellow service-member” but a known terrorist.
