You did not make a point with your post. Did Obama blame Bush for keeping the wars going? Did he blame Bush for the increase in debt?
He did both. Or more aptly, he blamed Bush for starting a war without provocation and without evidence. I am not sure what point you are making. He related the debt increase to unfunded wars (the OCO budget).
Not sure why stating the truth is being called "blaming."
Are you also having trouble determining Chippy's point?

Those fake tears and crying. Maybe she aint that good of an actress anyway?
Trump suffers from severe NPD in my opinion. But you dont fight that with severe BPD moves Kathy.

If that "performance" works in turning the tide in her favour, then America is even dumber than I thought.

It won't. People were already mostly indifferent towards her. She'll still have a career in standup somewhat (not soon as theaters she was booked at are canceling her shows due to threats against the theaters and staff - edit: her entire tour has been cancelled), but she'll have clubs and LA to fall back on. But she's done in terms of anything high profile or mainstream.

Eh, he's just throwing meat out to his voters with his decisions at this point. Any remerence of Trump's claims to try and be there for all Americans has been thrown completely out the window. He is a president for the 25% of voters who got him elected and nothing more

Trump decided to be the dumbest person alive again this morning:
It's pretty hard to argue it's not a travel ban for the Supreme Court when you're calling it a travel ban in your own tweets, Donald.
God I hope we don't have to deal with him for another 3 years

It IS a TRAVEL ban. No one is disputing that, though I'd say it's more of a halt. It is not however a MUSLIM ban.
From Inauguration Day until the end of May, just 15 regulations were approved by the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), the White House department that reviews important new federal rules. That's by far the fewest among comparable periods since recordkeeping began in the 1990s: Ninety-three rules were approved during the same period in Barack Obama's administration, and 114 under George W. Bush.
“Gods are great ... but the heart is greater. For it is from our hearts they come, and to our hearts they shall return.” “We were like gods at the dawning of the world, & our joy was so bright we could see nothing else but the other.” “There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.” “You have to pretend you get an endgame. You have to carry on like you will; otherwise, you can't carry on at all.” "Paper is dead without words / Ink idle without a poem / All the world dead without stories."

It is humorous how different CNN and FOX are reporting on the same hearing
Re: The Trump Era: The Awkward Mix of Libertarianism and Fas
It's not unreasonable, and I'm sure it'll be a joke with late night comedians, but his confusion looks like the early stages of Alzheimer's or dementia. The man is 80, it's not like he's immune to it. He genuinely didn't seem to understand the difference between the Clinton investigation and the current investigation. Either that or he just doesn't understand what's going on.

McCain was incoherent and doesn't look well at all.

Quote:
John McCain - "I get the sense from Twitter that my line of questioning today went over people's heads. Maybe going forward I shouldn't stay up late watching the Diamondbacks night games. "What I was trying to get at was whether Mr. Comey believes that any of his interactions with the President rise to the level of obstruction of justice. In the case of Secretary Clinton's emails, Mr. Comey was willing to step beyond his role as an investigator and state his belief about what 'no reasonable prosecutor' would conclude about the evidence. I wanted Mr. Comey to apply the same approach to the key question surrounding his interactions with President Trump—whether or not the President's conduct constitutes obstruction of justice. While I missed an opportunity in today's hearing, I still believe this question is important, and I intend to submit it in writing to Mr. Comey for the record."
