Why does Obama have no responsibility for anything?

[penguins]

If he does anything bad everybody says it's congress or Bush, why can't he be held accountable like everyone else?  Folks will blame Bush for the housing market collapse, terrorist attacks on the WTC but Obama isn't held responsible for anything, why is this?
@Jess Do you realize you just proved me right?  Don't get into a credentials contest with me either because you will lose.

Because according to your lack of examples he hasn't done anything bad to be held accountable for.

Actually, Bush is partly to blame for the housing market collapse.  The Clinton Administrators and activitist like Barack Obama forced the banking industry, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, to underwrite more low income housing loans.  Bush expanded the program since he believed in extending the American dream.

His father was a typical drunk that was never around to teach him responsibility.
That and he is a narcissist a$$.
And Bush attempted to regulate Fannie Mae,,,,so he was not part of it.

A Google search brings up the following Sept. 11, 2003 New York Times article, which shows the Bush administration was aware of potential lending problems and did try to do something about it:
 
The Bush administration today recommended the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis a decade ago.
 
Under the plan, disclosed at a Congressional hearing today, a new agency would be created within the Treasury Department to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored companies that are the two largest players in the mortgage lending industry.
 
The new agency would have the authority, which now rests with Congress, to set one of the two capital-reserve requirements for the companies. It would exercise authority over any new lines of business. And it would determine whether the two are adequately managing the risks of their ballooning portfolios.

You've also noticed the lame stream media covers for him?

When Bush does something wrong --> HIS FAULT!!!
When Obama does something wrong --> look the other way, it's someone else's fault.

It's all driven by the criminal liberal media.  He's black, his name is barrack husain Obama(a very un-American name), he wants more immigration.  And any time he does something bad for the country(almost everyday), the media just either doesn't talk about it or blames it on someone else.  Bush has been outta office for almost 3 years and they're still blaming everything on him.

Actually Obama is much more to blame for the housing market collapse than Bush.

He only cares about himself... Oh and his vacations...

Getting America into its current situation was not Obama's fault, the responsibly there lies with successive Republican and Democrat governments going back decades.

What will be Obama's responsibility is the economic recovery and how sucessful/unsucessful it has been by the end of his term.
