Yep.
President Barack Obama acknowledged Monday that the economy continues to struggle and too many Americans are still struggling to find jobs.
He also took Republicans to task for what he said was partisan politics that are standing in the way of passing a bill aimed at helping small businesses.
The bill “has been held up by a partisan minority that won’t even allow it to go for a vote,” Obama said in brief remarks on the economy from the White House Rose Garden. Obama spoke shortly after meeting with his economic advisers.
Let’s see… Obama and his fellow Democrats control the presidency and the entire Congress by large majorities. They took over GM and Chrysler. They passed a massive stimulus bill and spent it according to their will. They passed banking regulations. On and on and on… and the reason that the economy isn’t recovering is because the Republicans oppose this one bill? Even though the Democrats still hold large majorities and could pass it in a heartbeat?
Obama’s excuses for his failed leadership would be laughable if the consequences weren’t so dire for so many unemployed Americans.
