Unfortunately, the only effective argument you can muster is the "atypical lesser-evil liberal" which is more true than not. Unfortunately as well, Obama can't give "trillions" to Wall Street, despite of giving billions to Main Street.
So if my predecessor to my current job murders people, I can do it blame-free? Wow. Cool. Didn't know that.
Love the "But Bush did evil things, so why can't Obama?!" argument.
And Obama has given trillions. Unless you want to argue the Federal Reserve is completely private and the President has no control over them (but that would be conspiracy theory land), after all the Federal Reserve even gave $15 trillion to European Banks during the crisis, more than the ENTIRE US Federal debt combined.
I don't think you're understanding what "blame" means. It's factual to blame Bush jr. for "assassinations without trial". It's also factual to say that such a policy has continued under Obama. It's not factual, as I'm arguing, to blame Obama for "assassinations without trial", as he is not the source of this modern incarnation of it. As for the Fed, that's Ben Bernanke you're referring to.
