Obama's New Tack: Blaming Bush

The Washington Post reports:
In his inaugural address, President Obama proclaimed "an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn-out dogmas that for far too long have strangled our politics."

It hasn't taken long for the recriminations to return -- or for the Obama administration to begin talking about the unwelcome "inheritance" of its predecessor.

Over the past month, Obama has reminded the public at every turn that he is facing problems "inherited" from the Bush administration, using increasingly bracing language to describe the challenges his administration is up against. The "deepening economic crisis" that the president described six days after taking office became "a big mess" in remarks this month to graduating police cadets in Columbus, Ohio.
Good luck with the short attention span generation.Anyway,this is Barack Obama (Democrat-Fannie Mae) saying this.Remember when Senator Obama voted for TARP? President Obama even picked a member of Freddie Mac's board of directors to be his Chief of Staff.
