I can empathize with Obama and his economic team. Let me tell you short story.
When I was 15 years old, I worked at the local Carls Jr. A couple a rich kids (their parents didn't make them save for a car) walked in, ordered and sat down. Then, one of them spilled their drink on the floor. I'm not sure if it was on purpose or not - but they certainly didn't feel bad about it.
They called me over and arrived with a small rag, but quickly realized the spill was too much. So I went to the supply closet to get the mop. When I returned, one of the kids told me these exact words:
"What? you haven't cleaned our mess up yet ..."
This is, basically, the Republican message: Sure we spent 8 years fighting pointless wars and mismanaging the economy into recession; then we spent the last 4 years doing nothing but obstructing the recovery process ... but, Obama hasn't fixed it all yet so he's a failure.
I know spoiled immaturity when I see it.
