Obama should accept blame for country
The Gazette Opinion Staff

Whether you're a Democrat or Republican, it's clear we have a professional campaigner and an incompetent leader surrounded by his top 10 Harvard advisers with absolutely no business sense.
As a retired chief executive officer, I say you take the blame when things are bad and give credit to your team when things are good - something President Barack Obama and his team are clueless about. It's always everybody else's fault. What is of serious concern for all of us is there is no plan or direction being shown by this president.
The only person happy is Jimmy Carter, because someone has inherited his legacy as the worst president. For the good of our country, we hope November 2012 comes before we go beyond the point of no return.
