Obama's Blame Game: It's Not About Turning Out Voters, It's About Protecting Himself

Thursday, September 30, 2010

You'll have no one to blame but Obama and Rahm Emanuel should Sarah Palin in 2012 happen. 

The Republican Party was not only on the ropes after the 2008 campaign, but down for the count.  Obama and Rahm Emanuel didn't go after the Republican leadership in Congress, or even the Bush-Cheney administration for their many crimes.  No, Obama and Emanuel blocked all investigations into Bush-Cheney, and then elevated Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh, two people with absolutely no job, no position in the GOP, to their target sites.  

Obama and RahmEmanuel have never gone after the Republican leadership directly. Not MitchMcConnell, not JohnBoehner, not EricCantor, not JohnMcCain (the titular head of the Party, as the last presidential nominee).   

Obama and Rahm Emanuel won't go after Bush, Cheney, Rove, Rumsfeld, Feith, Wolfowitz, Yoo, Bybee, et al, or anyone in the Republican leadership or in Congress, but instead they go after Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin (two people with no official role in the Republican Party).

Why hasn't Obama (nor any of the DemocraticParty leadership) held the BushAdministration to account?  

Perhaps it would be kind of hard to swallow (Obama going after an administration for having committed crimes) when it's the same activities that Obama's actively engaged in.  It's also counter-intuitive to your other agenda, the DLC's agenda for the past 20 years, which is to attract Republican politicians & their supporters into the DemocraticParty, which can only be done by moving the DemocraticParty to the right of right-of-center.
