Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, September 18, 2011, 10:22 AM
In a clip on FOX News Sunday Barack Obama lashes out a Republicans to pass his latest stimulus plan. Obama says he’ll blame Republicans for the unemployment rate if his bill is not passed.
Rep. Paul Ryan responds to Obama’s latest politicking.
“When the president does things like this, it leads me to believe that he’s not in bipartisan consensus-making mode, he’s in a political class warfare mode and campaign mode. And that’s not good for the economy.”

What a pathetic Doooooosh!!!!
Ataaaaaaaaackk Waaaaaaaaatch!
I’m sorry attack watch, this is not a smear, it’s the truth & the truth is not negotiable.
Stephana commented:
Hey Barocky, you cant’ blame the Republicans for something that you have had control of since 2009. The people are awake, and have noticed that the unemployment rate is over 9% and that is after your failed stimulus. Try it affirmative action azzwipe.
Patty commented:
This president needs to be committed into the NEST where the CooCoos are kept. Really, he is going to say this.
The guy is nuttier than a fruit cake. I thought I heard it all when he won in 08 election.
And lately the things he has been saying, “if you love Me” and Odds are I will win re-election and in my opinion he is trying to glob onto something or some phrase that will sick. Catch on!
I have always known Obama is a solid liberal but now, he has jumped the shark.
martha commented:
Obama blaming Republicans-Oh yeah that’s big news- YAWN
So what else is new?
vagabond trader commented:
And the pitifully mute Rs should start their answer with:
“Credit downgrade.” Brought to you by this potus.
Robert commented:
The Republicans are completely failing to counter Obama’s moves,
it’s as if he is running rings around them.
They haven’t made public a single specific spending cut.
They haven’t made public a single specific regulation to cut.
They haven’t marked a single government program for de-funding.
There should be a flood of these suggestions coming out in the media
and on the floor of the House and Senate, instead we get silence.
gus commented:
Let me guess, the RACIST TEA PARTY is to blame for CAPTAIN FUKUP’S economy.
rbosque commented:
Right. Like he and the DNC aren’t already blaming Republicans for everything they do wrong. So….how is this any different?
This latest “stimulus” is only designed to do one thing and that’s blame Republicans anyway because they are naturally going to oppose more of the same failed Obamanomics.
Multitude commented:
Just like the Democrats got all the blame for Iraq and Afghanistan, because as the Pottery Barn rule goes: “If you break something, but demand someone else pay to fix it, and they refuse, then they get all the blame.”
At least I think that’s how it goes…
Sickofobama commented:
Obama trying something new?
NOOOOOOOO!
People are stupid for voting for Obama but Obama is the POTUS and he can blame all he wants – HE IS THE REASON THE ENTIRE WORLD IS EFFED UP RIGHT NOW.
He destroys everything he touches and jobs are number #1.
Conservative Ken commented:
Lemme guess, it’s still Bush’s fault. Right?
Katie commented:
Ya Gotta love Paul Ryan. He never shirks saying it as it is. And he’s right. These are sitting in the Senate. The Reid controlled Senate.
Has Obama’s version of the American Jobs Act even been filed yet?
a former dem commented:
nice try you community organizer…. Bill Clinton was very effective at blaming the repubs, heck I fell for it.
this is 2011, not 1996, and people know exactly what you’re doing… please by all means keep it, blame bush, blame the racist tea party, blame the independents who plan on voting against you and your chicago thugs… blame everyone.
IT WILL NOT WORK.
and oh by the way…. CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS ARE BLOCKING YOUR PLANS AS WELL!!!! (at least the few sane ones who are up for reelection next year)
Stupid But Tempting... commented:
Maybe it’s insane, but part of me wishes the House would just pass it – no strings attached. Then, predictably, when no jobs are created, O will have no one to blame but himself and his dumbazz policies.
His (yawn) strategy is that he knows the House won’t pass it, so he will latch on to that fact for his campaign explaining why he wasn’t able to create jobs…
What’s another half a trillion for a bankrupt county to get this bozo out of the WH in 2012?
a former dem commented:
sorry meant to type “racist” tea party with the quotations.

Your not paying attention son.
This is Obama’s plan all along. Class envy and have’s Vs. have nots. black vs. white.
Not gonna work anymore, America is not a socialist country, American’s are capitalists
not socialists.

No, and it won’t be called The American Jobs act due to Texas rep Gomert.
He filed a two page jobs bill with that exact name to take it away from Obama.
Obama is not going to be able to do anything but EO’s.

Oh yes it will. I am so convinced that America has passed the point of no return. The critical mass of morons has been reached. Look at the poll numbers for the GOP. “It’s all their fault.”
*sigh*

What a pathetic little man-child.
tommy mc donnell commented:
has he set the guiness book of records for lies yet.
shibumi commented:
“Lemme guess, it’s still Bush’s fault. Right?”
Yes.
Exactly.
It is also the fault of:
1. earthquake in Japan
2. tsunami in Japan
3. hot weather in summer
4. cold weather in fall
5. earthquake in DC/ VA
6. “holidays” in general
7. Arab spring
8. world “unrest”
9. jet owners
10. anyone who is employed
Ron commented:
Sir Blamealot of the House of Downgrade is going to blame republicans for his sorry @$$ policies and the mess this entire country is in huh? “BigF****ingSurprise” there. Who’d a thunk it? Boehners response: NaNa-NaNa-BooBoo.
StrangernFiction commented:
#20
I have to agree with you. If the views of our elected representatives are any barometer, America is in BIG TROUBLE. Just look at the lack of will amongst the GOP, much less the ‘rats, to even have a border.
FurryGuy commented:
Gee, like that is something unusual from the Blamer In Chief?
Ginger commented:
Hey Republicans if you value your job …GET LOUD Most of them will not because they are “closet COMMUNIST”
Skip commented:
This is no surprise. I believe he does hope that the GOP controlled House does not give him what he wants. His staff has not even finished writing the bill.
His ‘Jobs Plan’ is a campaign stunt. He has nothing else. He cannot run on his failed policies and agenda.
Perhaps the House should give him what he wants. It will not make a difference. The only cure for the economy is when Obama is removed from the White House.
jorgen commented:
He will blame the GOP? Surprise, surprise!!! When the time comes he will also blame Bush, Rush, Tea Partiers, Palin and a lot of other people for his destruction of the country – just as he has been doing since January 2009. What he will conveniently forget is that the destruction of USA happened because of his stubborn radicalism and bumbling inexperience. He was elected through affirmative action, i.e. the same way got his education, his lecturer job and editor job. It is no wonder he has screwed up everywhere! The MSM has a lot to answer for!
czekmark commented:
How is this even news? Every failure he has, he blames on someone else and Bush and/or the Republicans are his favorite scapegoats.
Valerie commented:
Let him say what he wants. There is a perfect answer:
The GOP was ostentatiously kept from having any input into the laws, both those that created this mess, and those that continue to depress our economy and our employment rate. Obama owns this mess, and so do the Congressional Democrats, because they refused to even let the Republicans in on the pre-legislative meetings.

I as a former Dem, too, can’t figure out why Washington thinks that we are still uninformed??! They must still be watching the MSM!
Stuart commented:
Of course he will blame the Republicans. I made exactly that same point two weeks ago right here in the GP comments section. Obama is so transparent. He doesn’t want the bill passed. He wants a scapegoat and some talking points.
JoyO commented:
Better remind Obama that the Senate is controlled by his party? When did the House of Representatives send the FY 2012 budget to the Senate? When did the Senate pass it?
Oh, that’s right, they haven’t passed it! End of blame game for anyone reasonably intelligent.
lizzy84 commented:
@SnF/#25
I agree with what you and #20 said– the USA has become a country run by vile con artists with no results. We’re screwed. As for the rest, I’ve heard enough already.The Republicans need to step up their game NOW to shut down oBama NOW. This man has nothing to add to the national dialogue…not the one that has anything to do with saving the Republic.
Blacque Jacques Shellacque commented:
The idea that Obie was ever in some sort of bipartisan consensus-making mode is nothing more than a fantasy.
tommy mc donnell commented:
he’s been blaming it on the republicans since the day he took office.
L.E. Liesner commented:
Well on this one he’s not blaming Bush and Cheney. I guess he hasn’t heard that the Democrat run Senate is not even going to bring it up until October.
Sandy commented:
And if the Republicans sign on to Obama’s jobs bill he will blame them for the Unemployment rate anyway. Obama has run out of ammunition and now he is throwing the gun.

Dude can blame whomever he wishes … don’t mean nobody else is gonna give it the time of day … go get a life, dude …

Its Bush’s fault!
Greg Zotta commented:
“Obama says he’ll blame Republicans for the unemployment rate if his bill is not passed.” So what else is NEW. It’s ALWAYS someone else s fault. The Obama Administration puts the blame for the loss of over 1/2 a billion taxpayer’s dollars from Solyndra on George Bush, because Solyndra applied for the money during the Bush Administration. No mention of the FACT the Solyndra was one of Barack Hussein Obama’s “Green Companies,” and their representatives made numerous visits to the White House in order to secure the money.
coolidgerules commented:
He’s going to say whatever the hell he wants. I personally think that he is looking for a reaction from someone on the right to start instituting crack downs on the first and second amendments. That could be the only explanation for some of the ridiculous comments coming from this regime.
Sidenote- All these calls from the Mr. Rodgers Media (land of make-believe) for King Putt to resign are laughable at best. This kook is all in, and he is past the point of no return. The regime has painted itself into the corner of either taking everything over or faing a litany of charges that will eventually doom their cause.
He simply cannot win.
AuntieMadder commented:
He’s a blamer. Everyone knows it and stopped listening to his blaming long ago.

That’s about right.

Of course he is. I mean, what’s Obama going to do? Actually take responsibility himself?
