I get sick of hearing these Rethugs ads blaming
Democrats for the (failed) Stimulus Plan and passing Obamacare that (gutted Medicare). For the first time today I see a Democrat ad nailing Mike Dewine for voting for TARP a $1,000,000,000,000 Wall Street bailout. I think the overwhelming majority of Americans think TARP was Obama's and if you listen to Teabaggers that seems to be their biggest complaint. How in the hell do Democrats let themselves get blamed for what they didn't do. Then they let Republicans trash what they did and are afraid to take credit for or defend it? I hear that Obama gutted Medicare and cut $500 billion at lest 50 times a day and nobody even attempts to call them on it.

1. Yup, you are right. The right-wingers see all of TARP as belonging solely to the
Democrats. They also seem to believe 9/11 happened during Clinton's presidency.

I keep wondering if they are really that ignorant, or if they are just deciding to be willfully ignorant. I think the latter in most cases.

2. In the same ad they are hitting Dewine in a round about way
for voting against the Stimulus. They say Mike Dewine voted to put 100,000 police, firemen and teachers out of work. By not voting for the Stimulus didn't the Rethugs vote against the Obama tax cuts for the middle class and didn't they also vote against unemployment extensions for people put out of work from the Bush Depression? I am a high school graduate and can't understand how Democrats way smarter than I am constantly let the Republicans trash them and don't even attempt to fight back.
