How can this economy not be Obama's fault?

Could it be:

The $1 trillion stimulus?

The additional stimulus packages when the first one didn't work?

The cash for clunkers debacle?

The $500 billion first time home buyer credit?

The state take-over of the auto industry?

The cutting of revenues by restricting oil drilling?

The massive Congressional bribery required to pass bills like Obamacare?

Additional bank bailouts AFTER TARP?

International bailouts of other countries' debt crises?

Failure to end the war on terror as promised?

Update:

Are Democrats afraid of this question?

    Most of your questions are factually not true. But he does own a big part of the economy as do republicans there is more than enough blame to go around on both sides.

    Its Obama's fault.

    Progressive Liberalism for the last 45 years is the real culprit. Building towers of of cards that can't possibly keep growing and are ready to come crashing down.

    The information you need is on this link and it shows the utter fault of Bush 43 and NOT Obama.

    It has to be posted in three lines and you'll have to type it in yourself. The link has been tampered with, so it will not show up if I post it on one line.

    Because even now most of the deficit spending is from continuing the Bush policies. Only 1.4 trillion has been spent on Obama Policies.

    Blaming other people for your problems. Okay, that's one way to go.

    When you've maxed out your credit and can't afford to buy, the economy suffers.

    The house of cards crumbles.

    Because the republican congress stops any effort to make the economy better. We have been going down hill ever since the gop took congress. Fact!

    Because the debt has accumulated from every president.

    The GOP didn't have to scare the world by openly admitting their willingness to renege on America's obligations. That is the heart of the problem.

    Very original.

    I always knew conservatives share one brain between them.
