nobody on this Forum has told me how Obama is to blame for all your problems...I have heard alot of rhetoric and anti Obama bumper sticker ramblings, but only one guy gave stats, and those stats supported obamas efforts. Come on now...where is the math, were is the proof. The best some of you have is that...he is overwhelmed with the crap he was left, and cant fix it. How are you quantifying that? Wouldnt it be nice if he DID succeed..I know that alot of you WANT another recession, just so he will fail. How stupid is that. I wanted BUSH to succeed, it would have broght me more customers a few years back. Id be a fool to have rooted against him. Your fools to root against your commander and chief.

Time for conservos to face reality. And the reality is that 1000 years from now, the things Bush fouled up will still be Bush's fault.

Just the way the cookie crumbles. Life's tough that way.
Obama will be forever known as "that guy" who ruined America's AAA credit rating.

It's extremely pathetic when you have someone as immature and thin-skinned as he is who refuses to accept blame for the results of his policies.

I don't recall GWB signing the super=awful and undoubtedly disastrous cash for clunkers, ObamaCare or Dodd-Frank bills or initiating multiple extension for unemployment insurance, on top of multiple episodes of interfering with private enterprise.

Bush started it. Obama made it 10 times worse. Face that reality!

I made more money when clinton was pres, only because I had an awesome job I was dumb enough to quit, thinking a closer locations was better economically,...well, it never was, but I manage. Its not Bushes fault, its not Obamas fault...Its just MY fault, just like its YOUR fault. Are you saying that Obama shipped your job over seas or something. Reminds me of that South Park Episode my son made me watch were THEY TOOK R JEBS.

Obama interfered with what should have been a normal bankruptcy (DCX). His unconstitutional interference caused thousands of local Dodge and Chrysler-Jeep dealerships to close even though they were profitable and employed people providing good wages and benefits.

My moniker is short for Mopar Monkey, as in grease monkey, as in auto mechanic. I'm a Chrysler mechanic (mo-monkey).

Here in Michigan having my skill set, a skill set which took me and the Daimler-Chrysler organization years of effort and expense to develop, is basically useless because most of these dealerships were forced closed and their employees fired.

When I worked for DC dealerships I earned $26+ per hour and got a stack of benefits to include BC/BS, a very good prescription drug plan, life, dental, vision, st disability, pre-paid legal, 401K, new vehicles at invoice, personal days, vacation, paid holidays, uniforms, paid training, certification cost reimbursement and more.

Most days I drive past a dealership where I used to work. The parking lot is overgrown with weeds and the windows are white washed. All the people I used to work with lost their jobs. Many of these people simply abandoned their homes and moved to their states where the employment opportunities are better. Personally, I have family commitments which keep me in Michigan.

How was closing these profitable dealerships an intelligent decision?
