Obamanomics on trial: Dick Durbin admits that this is now Barack Obama’s economy

With friends like this, who needs enemies?

Dick Durbin, the number two Democrat in the Senate, appeared on MSNBC and spoke that which has so far been unspeakable for Democrats. He admitted that this is now Barack Obama’s economy and the voters will rightfully hold him accountable for it.

Spoken like a man who doesn’t face reelection until 2014 and won’t have to worry about getting swept away in the coming 2012 landslide.

That gives him two years to make a comeback. And with the Republicans propensity to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, Durbin’s probably pretty safe.

  • At least they're finally started to see the truth for what it is... A mental midget in power that has the common sense of a dead gnat.

  • "Dick Durbin, the number two Democrat in the Senate,( a scary thought in and of itself), broke his lip-lock on Rahmbo's backside long enough to..."

    I still say I'd make a good yellow journalist.

  • Finally...FINALLY...Barry-O's Rasmussen DT Poll ratings are plummeting. Loss of nine points in four days, from -9 to -18. This time I don't think it will stop until he hits -25.

  • Bush's fault mantra is now dead. Any idiot that uses that will be behind the times. Although of course this became Obama's economy the first time Obama made a decision for the economy. I agree that Bush messed up and bad, however no one had a gun to Obama's head to make it worse.

  • Comes the dawn. The truth shall make senator Durbin free, or, more likely, make him "disapppeared".

    • So I asked Homer what he would say about Obama's economy. Didn't say doh, but he did say "ruf" which I interpreted as a lack of doh.
