Remember, when shit hit the fan, and the Reich-wing would knee-jerk blame it on Obama?

And on, and on, and on.....

Since Trump was inaugurated one Navy warship has run aground, and two - TWO! - warships have been rammed by freighters.

Response from the Reich-Wing blaming Trump - who JUST got his SECNAV into the job ? <Sound of crickets...>

Oh, wait! Spoke too quick. There it is, yesterday!

&quot The Navy) got their sensitivity training, they got their race relations training, they got their sexual harassment training and we have for a long time, but particularly under Obama, turned the military into a social engineering experiment." - Fox News' phuckwad analyst, Lt. Col. Ralph Peters, (whose name translates to “vomiting penises” in Slanglish)!

It is always someone else's fault! (Unless it is something good, in which case, it was all because of Reagan.)

* I have no idea how that smilie got in there. Tried to delete it; could not.)

1. When I get an unintentional smilie, I just put an additional blank-space in there.

2. This is true of any Republican president

Trump is the extreme case, to be sure, but the pattern is familiar. For instance...

"The president has no power to affect the economy" unless:

1. The economy is strong and the president is a Republican
or
2. The economy is weak and the president is a Democrat

If the economy is weak under a Republican, it's because the previous Democrat's policies are finally having their effect, and if the economy is strong under a Democrat, it's because the previous Republicans policies have finally borne fruit.

I've seen it happen many times even during my comparatively few years that I've been politically aware, and I'm sure that it's gone much longer than that.

3. True!

And I remember it so clearly after Clinton increased taxes (by one vote - Gore's, as President of the Senate) over the howling of the Reich-wing that it would destroy the economy. Less than two years later the economy is really humming.
And, when questioned by the media?

"This is just Clinton following Reagan's economic plan." - Overfull pantload, Newt Gingrich.

I still remember that.

4. and how the media pushed the republican lie that President Obama would not work with republicans

The media is as much to blame for the hypocrisy and false equivalency as the republicans
