This article explains why it does not go away....it is a promoted party line from the top:
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/jul/29/obama-still-cashing-in-on-bushs-economic-failings/print/
Obama (or any other incumbent for that matter) has never ever really had executive experience nor do they understand what comes with the job.
He used the economy for campaign leverage. Now 6 months later when things are not going according to the Obama dictate he, his advisors and constituents fall back on the lame excuse making smoke job of blaming his predecessor or that it was worse than he thought.
When you take on a new job you get what comes with it. Good and bad become your responsibility day one. It is completely and totally unacceptable to point to a predecessor condition as a fault for not making progress. In my corporate America days if anybody came to me and said they couldn't meet their commitments because it was tougher than they thought or if they even attempted to lay the blame for lack of progress on their commitments, they would get a one time warning to cease and desist.....go make the commitments happen....or resign.
Lack of progress on commitments......especially after 6 months into the job......only a politician would/could try something so lame as to STILL be offering the other guy as an excuse.
Now I understand where the Obama constituency gets it from the top and his whiz bang smoke screen advisers.
Now if he had a plan he could tell us where he was off and why....what it will take to recover back to the commitment and when!!! There I go again forgetting we are talking about politicians...no plan....no responsibility....no accountability...what's in it for me preservation.....
