WASHINGTON – The Republican National Committee (RNC) released a new web video “From ‘Hope’ to Hypocrisy: Excuses, Excuses” showing how Barack Obama is pointing fingers at everyone except himself for his own failed policies. Barack Obama promised to take responsibility for his stewardship of the economy but, realizing that his policies have been an abysmal failure, he’s blaming everyone–and everything for his failures.
Research Piece: Excuses, Excuses
“For three years, President Obama has been promising a better economy and said he would be held responsible for the outcome,” said RNC Chairman Reince Priebus. “But, when he realized his failed economic policies weren’t working, he decided to blame everyone but himself.
“Candidate Obama pledged to turn the economy around and get our spending under control. Three years later, his promises don’t match his deeds, so he’s searching for someone to blame. President Truman famously said of the presidency that ‘the buck stops here.’ But all President Obama wants to do is ‘pass the buck.’
“The American people are tired of his excuses; if President Obama won’t hold himself accountable, the voters will in November.”
