Spence, you also say it's just "politics" that Obama puts all the blame on the GOP, even though you think there is blame on both sides. I agree, it's just politics, and most politicians do stuff like that.

But remember, Obama campaigned on some vague notion called "change". He had no accomplishments he could point to, so he promised that HE would be the one to bring change to Washington, HE would be the one to put "politics as usual" aside, He, and only HE, could do things differently.

So I really, really love it when Obama defenders say things like "all politicians do that". Because that should NOT be an acceptable excuse from someone whose entire campaign was based on the promise of "change".

Your response???
