It's Our Fault

Lately, President Obama has blamed practically everything and everyone (but himself) for our lackluster economy even though he's been in charge for almost three years.  This week we were told "Over the last six months we've had a string of bad luck."  Bad luck, huh?  Was it bad luck that spent a trillion dollars on a "stimulus" that stimulated nothing but bigger debt?  Did someone in his administration walk under a ladder or break a window that led to the passage of Obamacare?  Did a black cat cross the path of Obama's dog Bo which in turn caused the first credit downgrade in America's history?  We all know the answer to these questions.  And we all know when we are being taken for a ride.  The truth of the matter is that America cannot recover while this man is in office, and for that we have only ourselves to blame, particularly those who voted for him in the first place.  Let's not repeat the mistakes of the past even though we have a president and a Democrat party who are determined to do so themselves.  Let's not get bogged down in their malaise, but instead try and rise above it, at least, and until we get the kind of real leadership necessary for growth and a return to prosperity.
