Obama has spent the last 3.5 years blaming Bush for all of his problems. We expect kids to grow out of this blame game by age 10 or so, but Obama never did. Even if it were true (and it's not), I'm not sure I'd still be claiming this at this point if I were Obama. Is he really so impotent that after almost an entire term as president (the first half of which his party controlled both houses of Congress, and the second half of which they controlled the Senate), he still can't accomplish anything? He should get fired for that alone. Of course, it's not exactly an either/or - either he's a liar or incompetent - he's both.
But I digress.
Today he set a new standard for classlessness. He launched into his "IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT!!!" routine at with Bush present at the ceremony unveiling the Bush portrait for the White House.
Barack, Barack, Barack. Real men, real statesmen, real presidents are so far above that kind of behaviour that they would never dream of it. Bush didn't spend four years blaming Clinton. And Bush has endured all the left's tantrums and insults for almost 12 years now with quiet dignity. The difference in class couldn't be more stark.

Liberal hypocrisy at its best
Part of Team Obama's strategy for beating Romney is to portray him as a rich elitist who's out of touch with the average American. This is, if you'll pardon the pun, rich. It's difficult to imagine a more elitist president than Obama. Along with all the extravagant parties and holidays, there's the little fact that Obama employs a dog trainer at $102,000 per year. Ah, yes ... now there's a man of the people!
Of course, the difference between him and Romney is that Romney spends his own money whereas Obama spends ours. Which is by and large the norm. There are many wealthy Republicans. But typically they've earned their money by hard work, providing countless jobs, products, and services that benefit average Americans. There are just as many wealthy Democrats. But they usually have become wealthy at the expense of average Americans.
We'd better hear about Obama's dog trainer a million times during this campaign ... enough that he springs to mind every time some Obama shill has the gall to talk about how rich Romney is.

The humble Obama
Evidencing the same humble dignity that we've come to expect from Obama, he opined today that he probably knows more about Judaism than any other president. Of course, he doesn't. Nobody (with the possible exception of himself) thinks he does. It's merely his pathetic attempt to regain some of the Jewish vote that he has lost by consistently stabbing Israel in the back. But it does go to emphasize how little class this man has. Other than pro wrestlers and grade 4 boys, who engages in such boasting?
