Say what you will about George W. Bush, but I can't remember Perino, Snow, et al. ever spouting such a continuous waterfall of blame-game douchebaggery against congressional democrats.

Indeed.
They were still blamed when they were the minority party in both houses.

"Obama has no Honor" therefore he will never take the blame for anything he does
