The power of the purse is vested in the congress. The deficit wasn't at ZERO when Obama took office. Obama wasn't the director/supervisor of Fast and Furious. I don't see Obama's name anywhere on the list of people in charge of that debacle. It's hard for me to believe that Al-Qaeda reemerged when Al-Qaeda never disappeared. Who knows if Al-Qaeda is even real? The blame for Benghazi goes on US foreign policy, the military industrial complex, the CIA and the JCS. I don't see Obama's name anywhere on the list of people found to be behind the IRS scandal?
The deficit ballooned under his watch..and one thing that's keeping in check is sequestration cuts ,,brought on by Republicans ..gridlock.
Fast & Furious ..the United States is running guns to Mexicoand the President doesn't know anything about it ..who's running the show?
President Obama told America al Qaeda was on the run and decimated ..not his fault if it wasn't ..right
You misread ...Did not say the blame for Benghazi was on Obama ...the cover up and lie about the Mohammad video as the cause for the attack was on Obama ..
ISR scandal not Obama's fault why should Obama as President of the United States of America be aware of what the most powerful agency in the country is doing ?
The NSA program was created by the Bush administration. All Obama is doing is continuing the Bush and Cheney post 911 plans. I could be wrong but is Obama a computer network technician? Everyone knows that Obama is a political puppet for the oligarchs and plutocrats.
NSA scandal not Obama' fault ..it was Bushes fault.. ROLF
MoneySRH.. In your last sentence - even with President Obama being the only person who can sign E.O.'s for sanctions on Russia - you don't hold him responsible for signing them ...Sad..

Sara....G.W Bush took more vacations days than any other president.
487 days at Camp David
480 days at the Crawford Ranch ( Dam, that's more than a year )
43 day at Kennebunkport !
So STHU
Don, you forget that they (Slim and the other stooges) don't let facts get in the way of their arguments. If they say the sun is blue, it's blue no matter what evidence there is.

SS, It wouldn't make a difference if a republican was in the white house, right now... the status quo would still be in control. The white house was sold to the highest bidders. Obama has been in charge for 6 years. The economy started to fall apart and spread like cancer years before he took office. It was a republican and democrat title wave that was impossible to stop. Libertarians know this for a fact, but for some reason republicans don't get it. I'm all for gridlock and cuts as long as both parties suffer. If democrats are going to make cuts to democrat programs, republicans must publicly concede all the bullshiit wars.
You're blaming government waste on Obama. When republicans are just as wasteful and areas equally responsible for this mess. The problem is democrats AND REPUBLICANS not just democrats. It's republocrats. Libertarians are the only ones that are informed about this fact. Where in Obama's job title does it say ATF agent? Law enforcement is responsible for the Fast & Furious debacle. Obama was TOLD that Al-Qaeda was on the run and decimated. Obama was TOLD that the Benghazi attack was a response to the Mohammad video. Where in Obama's job title does it say IRS commissioner? Obama's a ventriloquist puppet with a hand up his a$$. Oligarchs and plutocrats selected him asthe face of the country.

The next face will be Hillary and she will be the first female president for 8 years. The president after her will be a Hispanic democrat for 8 years. After that ... know knows?

I am not so sure about that. Yes, the demographic has changed but history hasn't been kind to the incumbent's Party, especially after a 2-termer.
The truth is under the current political climate, things aren't going to get done no matter it's a D or R in the Office but the majority of the fault would be placed on....(Bush was in the same boat)

The POTUS sets the atmosphere for job creation and can direct ( picks winners/losers ) funds to businesses that can create private sector jobs ..For one example :. Solyndra and other Government subsidies and incentives to the solar industry ....e.g. Solar tax incentive for installing solar energy for home or business ..creating the need for jobs in the private sector.
Republican administrations are just as much to blame for creating our economic woes. Study after study shows that taxes, regulations, and trade restrictions destroy businesses that create most of America’s jobs. Both Democrats and Republicans have voted for all three, even when paying lip service to "smaller government." The economic stagnation we are now experiencing can be laid at the feet of BOTH parties.
We are in agreementin the bold.....But,, Obama's economic cure for stagnation was the $800 billion Stimulus package..it was to create 6 million jobs ..most of them promoted by the President as "shovel ready "private sector jobs ..
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Stimulus bill )ended up supporting bloated agencies that were steeped in scandal.
...And this massive package passed without the support of any Republicans in the House and just three in the Senate — one of whom, Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, soon would be drummed out of the GOP for that vote,
MoneySRH : You're blaming government waste on Obama. When republicans are just as wasteful and are as equally responsible for this mess. The problem is democrats AND REPUBLICANS not just democrats. It's republocrats.
No, MoneySRH.. ..I countered all your defense of Obama excuses ..and you missed the jest of my post #39 it wasn't to assign blame to Obama ,but to point out ... "President Obama is never responsible for anything ever ."
So,, Since Obama is not responsible( in your eyes) for anything that I mentioned in post #39...... I ask you ...is President Obama responsible for the Executive Orders he signed for sanctions on Russia ..or will that also be blamed on someone else?

DJ and donjuan What does it matter what Rick would do? He's not running this country. Party of know nothings---donjuan--u are a loser. To just throw out a blind blanketed statement that covers EVERONE in the party. How about a blind statement that just covers u? Narrowminded parrot. Do u ever care to explain how lies by our prez are OK by u?

Bunny, we living in the hip-hop and digital age. God, guns, religion, fear, bigotry and racism no longer work as a platform to win national elections. People will always vote for the lesser of the two evils aka democrat party because the republicans are stuck in a primitive state. I dream of a third party of ideas emerging.
The original plan was to use the GOP for domination but oligarchs and plutocrats realized that democrats don't get resistance from voters. Obama was the perfect face they needed to continue the plan. A woman is next face and then a hispanic to complete the systematic takeover.
SS, President Obama is only responsible for things that are in HIS control. The man can't take blame for the actions of others. Show me evidence that he was directly in charge and aware of any of the republican conspiracies and I’ll change my mind. I believe Obama is doing what he is told he should do or is being ordered to do.

So your answer is..... Obama is not responsible for the Executive Orders he personally signed for sanctions on Russia ?

If the person indeed signed it, then yes. Ignorance can't be used as an excuse in the court of law, let alone in the court of public opinion.
Bunny, Ok, hear me out on this... how about suggestion/duress defense? I believe the president is just a puppet. A team of selected advisers advise him on what actions to take. The president is given the illusion of choice. Through political duress and the power of suggestion the president ends up signing whatever is placed in front of him.

Once Republicans take the Senate they should stand over the President and make him sign his resignation papers.

You are really bending over backwards again, in defense of a big govt. Democrat .
