And yea, I know that something as complex as the economy isn't something that can simply be "fixed" with a button, but for someone who was elected president, you would think he'd know that as well. For having a party majority during the first portion of his presidency, I wouldn't think the whole "Republican's fault" argument would have come into play in such an encompassing way.

Just sayin'.
