Announcing Retirement, Democrat Congressman Bashes Obama

National Journal reports:
Rep. Dennis Cardoza, D-Calif., announced his retirement from Congress this afternoon -- and he issued a scathing parting shot at President Obama's track record on his way out.

In a statement explaining his decision, Cardoza, a leader of the centrist Blue Dog Coalition, said he was "dismayed" by the administration's "failure to understand and effectively address the current housing foreclosure crisis."
Even the National Journal noted:
it's rare to see a departing congressman blast the president in an official statement.
Barack Obama sure knows how to make friends!
