The Washington Times is reporting how a very desperate Obama, watching his popularity in the polls plummeting recently, has begun resorting again to public Bush-bashing in hopes of rallying supporters with this tried-and-true tactic.
In his White House press conference last week, Mr. Obama referred to the Bush era at least nine times, three times lamenting that he “inherited” a $1.3 trillion debt that has set back his administration’s efforts to fix the economy.
This is yet more broken promises from a man who ran on a platform of “post-partisanship” and whose inauguration speech promised things like:
On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn-out dogmas that for far too long have strangled our politics. We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things.
and who is on record as saying things like:
This is not a Republican problem or a Democratic problem at this stage. This is an American problem.
and:
What is not an option is for us to sit and engage in posturing or the standard partisan fights when the American people are out there struggling.
Obama must be taking advice from Democratic Party strategist Liz Chadderdon who said, ”I think Bush-bashing has been alive and well since ’07 and, since it keeps working, why not use it?”

I previously posted about the latest rash of scandalous photos coming out of Afghanistan showing U.S. military atrocities under Obama’s command, and wondering if the media would pick up on it the way they did when it was Bush’s army… Well, here’s a twist I wasn’t expecting: yes, one of the U.S. media, Rolling Stone, [...]
Jeffrey Goldberg, a correspondent for the Atlantic, cast a spotlight on yet another disgustingly overt example of pure bias in the mainstream media, particularly at the anti-Semitic Reuters newswire. He points to a Reuters news item which contains the following despicable sentences: Police said it was a “terrorist attack” — Israel’s term for a Palestinian [...]
In the [sparse] reporting of the Palestinians’ massacre of the Fogel family, several newspapers stand out with their distorted sense of “balance”, i.e., where they feel overwhelmingly uncomfortable describing the barbarity of the Palestinians without at least taking a swipe or two at the Israelis, no matter how patently irrelevant or disgustingly disrespectful it comes [...]
Someone said it very well recently: Obama is still campaigning rather than running the country.
