Obama talked about how income inequality has gotten worse during his presidency in his state of the union speech. Okay now. Okay now wait. Hold up....how is he trying to spin that as if it's not his fault?

Seriously. He talks about something bad happening during his presidency but he's somehow trying to spin this into the Republican's fault. But everything good that is happening is because of him? Shouldn't people be lampooning him because income inequality has gotten worse during his term? He admitted it! But instead Democrats are taking that as a rallying cry.

"Obama said income inequality has gotten worse during his presidency! This is unacceptable, Republicans!"

Can you imagine if Bush had said something like that?

I can see the headlines now:

"Bush admits his presidency is a failure; Rich get Richer and Poor get Poorer."
Probably because there's not an enacted policy of his that you can point to that exacerbated income inequality. Otherwise, you're right, he should've been clobbered for that type of line.
