ORIGINAL: mnottertail Seems to me that Republicans NEVER take responsibility. So, we await republican examples here of claiming personal responsibilty for bankrupting the country, invasions and the like. THIS I have never seen the repiblicans take responsibility for it Ron and believe me Ive looked. To be fair, you almost never see politicians (of any stripe) taking responsibility for anything they've done, be it getting a blow-job, knackering the country’s finances, failing to negotiate a narrow bridge when pissed off their faces, tapping phone lines and burglarising enemies, or rushing into insane wars. Now I'm trying to think of the last time I remember a politician taking responsibility for something negative they'd done, and failing dismally ... anyone? UK I'm thinking of, but US would be fine too. Obama’s “yes I inhaled, that was the whole point” admission wasn't really the same sort of thing as by then having smoked pot wasn't viewed as a major negative ... Isn't taking responsibility for everything that goes wrong in the country Clegg's job description? Cameron claims credit for anything that might be even vaguely creditable, and Clegg's left holding responsibility for the other. (I might feel sympathetic if he was less of a snivelling two faced cunt who's seen to it that his party's going to spend another thirty years in the wilderness the second the coalition collapses...)
