Martin O'Malley Evokes G.W. Bush in Debate. Again. And Again.

Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley has been doing the talk-show circuits and generally jumping in front of any camera that will air his image and propaganda.  I heard that he was on FoxNews Sunday a couple of weeks ago, but didn't have a chance to watch it until recently. 

If you've ever listened to Martin O'Malley speak, you know that he cannot go 10 minutes without bringing up George W. Bush's name as the source of all blame for anything that ails the universe.  Unemployment? George W. Bush's fault.  Wars in the Middle East?  No, not the terrorsts' fault.  It's George W. Bush's fault.  Mortgage foreclosures?  GW.  Federal deficit?  W.  The failed Imperial invasion of the planet Hoth?  George Walker Bush.

I'm not saying that George W. Bush didn't cause these.  What I'm saying that if you run for President, you are applying for a job where you know what you're getting yourself into.  And if you win, you accept those problems as your own and you vow to fix them.  GWB cannot be the eternal excuse for your inability to fix these problems.  A couple of years?  Sure, I'll give you that.  But we're four years into this.  Claim it as your own.

Here is the interview on FoxNews.  I encourage you to watch the whole thing, it's only 16.5 minutes long.  Check out O'Malley being a total clown at the 10:15 mark with his reference to Let's Make a Deal.  And he brought up Big Bird no less than twice, perhaps more.
