“We’re Losing, and It’s All Bush’s Fault!!!”

From Lemur King’s Folly:

After Obama Rally, Dems Pin Blame on Bush

Never gets old for the Democrats, apparently. Deity forbid Dems take responsibility for their own failures…

As audience members streamed out of Pres. Obama’s rally on behalf of AG Martha Coakley (D) here tonight, the consensus was that the fault for Coakley’s now-floundering MA SEN bid lies with one person — George W. Bush.

But the best quote comes from Representative Patrick “Yes, I am a REAL” Kennedy, who was campaigning for Coakley, even though he represents Rhode Island:

Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-RI), speaking with a gaggle of reporters after the event, said that while state Sen. Scott Brown (R) offers voters a quick fix, in reality, the problems created by “George Bush and his cronies” are not so easily solved.

“If you think there’s magic out there and things can be turned around overnight, then you would vote for someone who could promise you that, like Scott Brown,” Kennedy said. “If you don’t, if you know that it takes eight years for George Bush and his cronies to put our country into this hole … then you know we have a lot of digging to do, but some work needs to be done and this president’s in the process of doing it and we need to get Marcia Coakley to help him to do that.”

Translation: In order to get out of the hole, Dems need to keep digging. I am not making this up. As if that weren’t bad enough, Sen. Kennedy kept referring to Martha Coakley as MARCIA.

Democrats sinking in quicksand. Hilarity ensues.
