Yes - he did blame Bush:
“After years of championing policies that turned a record surplus into a massive deficit, the same people who didn’t have any problem spending hundreds of billions of dollars on tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans are now saying we shouldn’t offer relief to middle class Americans like Jim, or Leslie, or Denise, who really do need help.”
The script is here:

"We need to pass it for men like Jim Chukalas, who’s with me today"

Why do politicians still think that trotting out the Common Man Argument is anything other than idiotic?

Who is John Galt?

Cloward and Piven's worst nightmare. It does no good to overwhelm the government with demands for purloined wealth that can no longer be found.

And I’m convinced that the real numbers are far more dire than even this statement shows.

I recently had a job posted for a Project Manager for IT related projects. I had over 150 applicants. Of that number, at least half had enough experience to get the job.

“there are five applicants for every opening”

Oh, the ole Clinton, I feel your pain.

Then takes another stab to your heart.

Ignorant voters.

At least you are able to post a job.

There are a few openings here, but I have not applied - too hard to be seen through the crowd. This winter will be no fun.

Not sure what’s worse:

Unemployment across America
or
Employment specifically at 1400 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Pretty damnng statement from a sitting president.


Especially after he was handed over a $Trillion in stimulus money that was supposed to help create jobs.
