What a loser. He's 10 times worse than Carter.
He's not up to the job . . . never was. He was a junior senator and a junior president.

Analysis: Obama's buck-stopping goes only so far
WASHINGTON – He says "the buck stops with me," but nearly a year into office, President Barack Obama is still blaming a lot of the nation's troubles — the economy, terrorism, health care — on George W. Bush.

Meh ... how often were we told that the problems during Bush's Presidency were Clinton's fault? I'm not saying it's right, but it's certainly not unique to Obama or Democrats.

I don't recall Bush ever putting the blame for anything on Clinton. In fact when Clinton's left and his staff trashed the White House, Bush quashed any negative comments from his staff.
Clintons staff's actions when they left were horrible (for professionals). Most of the damage was done in the Eisenhower Execitive Office Building adjacent to the White House.

Yeah, for the most part, the Bush Administration didn't play that game.
Others may have pointed their fingers at Clinton, especially in regards to national security, but it wasn't Bush or his people really.
Obama needs to put on his "big boy pants" and take his lumps for the horrible job he's done managing whatever was left to him. He told us the stimulus would fix the economy, but it's actually likely made it worse as it isn't helping stimulate anything, but simply plunging us deeper and deeper in debt at a time Obama has decided we need to spend more money on health care when our current systems are going broke.
Oh..yeah, I guess that's Bush's fault too.

Did Obama actually say "it's Bush's fault"?
What Bush was good at was getting other people to sling his dirt.

Under Pres. Bush, everything was blamed on 9/11. From 2001 till 2008. From 2009 and on, it's all Pres. Obama's fault.

Bush Tax Cuts == Job Killer

2.21 million jobs were LOST after 2 years of Bush Tax Cuts.

Obama has, on numerous occasions, used the phrase The "fill in the blank" I inherited...

Yes, but saying the "bucks stops with me", while continuing to blame Bush et. al. is a new twist.
Even Bush didn't go that far.

We are currently dealing with issues that can be followed back to the Roosevelt administration, if not the Wilson administration. Sure, Harry Truman said "the buck stops here" and he meant it, but it's hard to argue that if the Mideast and South Asia areas hadn't been buggered up by "right thinking, civilized" Westerners back during WWII (and the Mideast even farther back to the aftermath of the Great War), then we wouldn't have these problems. Harry didn't invent WWII nor the bomb, but he took responsibility for using the latter to conclude the former. But a world war is a pretty straightforward thing when compared to control of a fragmented region and managing an obscenely complex economy.
George HW inherited some problems from Reagan, but many of the problems that he took on came from much farther back. Panama (anyone remember that?) had been an issue since the FIRST Roosevelt administration, and HW finally took the appropriate action (IMO) to stomp on a tin-plated dictator that had been bullying the US for years-something that all of said dictator's predecessors had done. EVERY president inherits the sum total of unfinished business left by previous presidents. The issue is generally how bad the unfinished business is, how badly it got goobered to begin with, and whether anyone thought it was properly dealt with originally in the first place. Certainly nobody thought that the Treaty of Versailles would actually cause an even more horrendous conflict...
