Clinton became an anecdote after 9/11, I think to be fair we must admit  
Bush took
the brunt of all attacks for his eight years in office, and didn't , that I 
 recall ever say
the phrase "I inherited....." Obama was elected on a platform that he was  
the man to
fix the prior mess so he can shut up and fix it now. I have hired folks for 
 my companies
who were supposedly going to come in and clean up and they just stood  
around
leaning on the mop complaining about that mess. So far he looks like one of 
 those. I
do hope, for the good of us all, that he gets it in gear, quits complaining 
 about the stuff
that got him elected and gets to work. He promised unemployment would not  
reach over 8 
percent if we gave him his stimulus and did it quickly without reading it.  
We did and 
unemployment created on his watch has gone from 7 to 9.9 percent, a 41  
percent increase.
When each percentage point represents 2.4 million jobs, that is a whole new 
 world
of hurt for a lot of families. Now government motors is closing Saturn  
down, 350 dealerships
plus factories and dozens of factories supplying parts shutting  down. More 
unemployment
that he could avoid but is silent on. Still waiting on word from the White  
House. For less than 
one tenth of one percent of the stimulus money still sitting in Washington, 
 Saturn could be
retooled to produce efficient, alternative energy driven vehicles, Obama  
could keep his 
promise to the environmentalists and not dump tens of thousands on the  
unemployment rolls
but that would be smart and there is not a lot of that in DC anyways.

Makes a nice change  after 8 years of blaming it all on Clinton.

The partisan rhetoric  started to get really intense during Clinton's
administration (it's always  been around), but now it's rabid.

This too shall pass, but I wonder  what will  follow.
