Barack Obama’s Latest Line: “I Bear Full Responsibility For Everything”
Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, September 23, 2012, 8:43 PM
For years Barack Obama blamed Bush, Europe, the tsunami, earthquakes, ATMs…
After years of deflecting blame, tonight Barack Obama told CBS, “I take full responsibility for everything.”
CNN reported:
President Barack Obama discussed his frustration with gridlock in Washington, saying his “biggest disappointment” in his nearly four years in office has been the failure to oversee change in the nation’s political climate.
“My biggest disappointment is that we haven’t changed the tone in Washington as much as I would have liked,” Obama said in a CBS News interview that aired Sunday.
Asked if he bears any blame for the stalemate, Obama said the buck stops at his desk.
“I think that, you know, as president I bear responsibility for everything, to some degree,” he said on CBS’ “60 Minutes.”
Throughout the presidential campaign, Mitt Romney’s campaign and Obama’s critics have dogged the president for failing to get certain legislation passed in recent years, while Team Obama responds by faulting congressional Republicans for not compromising.
That will last about a week.

Michele commented:
He had two years of a Democratic house and senate, and wasted it on a health care bill nobody wanted. I think this new line of taking responsibility is so he’ll look like he isn’t Mr. Short Pants.

““I think that, you know, as president I bear responsibility for everything, to some degree,”
“to some degree”?
. . . just another grandstanding, self-absorbed, and ultimately meaningless statement from President 0.

Finally Obama admitted full responsibility of his failures. Now time to vote out the biggest failure of America.
Katielee commented:
“I bear responsibility for everything, to some degree,” …To some degree. How much degree he defines that as, is the question.
I guess if the blame game doesn’t work, maybe try humility and accountability. Whether he really takes ownership of it is debatable. I’m going to say no—just doesn’t fit in his psyche, and I doubt he’s had some watershed epiphany.

“I think that, you know, as president I bear responsibility for everything, to some degree,”
“to some degree”? You either do or you don’t. None of this to some degree B.S.
Militant Conservative commented:
correct, a narcissist will only tell you what you want to hear.
His internal polling data must be very grim for him to try this tactic.
TXPatriot commented:
“to some degree,”
Probably will depend on your definition of is…
Robert commented:
He is saying several things that appeal to people, but his actions belie his words.

Exactly. He is bitter and angry and no matter how the media covers for him — The guy who is as cold as ice has a glass jaw.
