I heard a brief radio spot with some female economist spouting the "Japan theory" -- "strong economic headwinds" -- and knew in my bones the minute I heard it that this was a new meme from the administration.
Posted under foreign affairs because this administration IS a foreign affair.
Just surprised he’s not blaming Israel.
Interesting.
In that photo he looks a bit like Michael Jackson singing “Man in the Mirror”.
For as much as the man uses “I” and “me” he never seems to find those words when it comes time to place blame.
Low down paymwnt loans to people that should have never been allowed to buy a home is the root cause!
Until people living on credit are wiped out recovery won’t happen!
What happened to blaming Bush for everything?
Our president needs to seriously, for at least a short time, shut up. His own words don’t make him sound like he has a clue as to what is going on. Strawmans, Red Herrings, Gaffes, used about every one of them. In fact, I have to say thanks to him for actually making a good example of “fallacies in action”
What an evil bastard from Hell.
>> facing some tough head winds,” he said.
The wind between his ears.
So now the trillion $ deficit is all europe and japans fault.
Well good to know. I´m pretty shure the european politicians say the same for the US.
Because heaven forbit that our own politicians did screw it up.
Sociopaths (and Socialists) by definition always blame others and never take responsibility for their actions.
Everyone needs to carry a mirror (esp a camping metal one) to hold up so Zer0 can see who’s to blame.
Dudes, am I high or did the President of the United States actually say this:
“Lately, it’s high gas prices, the earthquake in Japan, and unease about the European fiscal situation. That will happen from time to time.” ???
THAT WILL HAPPEN FRON TIME TO TIME?? And people are worried about Palin?
Obama should blame himself! Effing idiot.
everyone is to blame but him... shocking!
(not)
If fact he is no better and no different from Deval Patrick - an affirmative action politician who has risen to a level waaaaaay beyond his competancy.
Zer0 has placed Economic IEDs in the road ahead.
That was my first reaction: Whaa? When did Bush go away? Because I thought as of a week ago, he was still ruining the economy and gas prices.
Zippy Obama, the Commie and ACORN are to blame here.
If the goings on in Japan and Europe can so hurt your economy, there’s something terribly wrong with the way you are doing things......
