I do not think any of you actually read what was in the OP. Biden did not blame Obama. Biden accepted blame for that fact that his team is in charge now and the only people that can fix it now is them. It is really pretty clear English. Obama began by saying he would not be looking backward, but forward. This would just be more of that if anyone can actually read it.

es, thank you for handing more power to the FDA, the worst government agency out there...
Thats ridiculous. The FDA is there to make sure that companies dont engage in harmful practices with our food supply. De-regulation is not the answer.

Can't decide between or for this response trying to somehow put a positive spin on Biden's remarks.
Especially the part where you said "Obama began by saying he would not be looking backward, but forward."
Obama has been blaming Bush since day 1 of his administration for every problem he can. Which would make this a huge broken campaign promise, and nothing to give obama credit for.

WOW!! That link is a major crock - o - you know what.
WOW! Then I would have expected you to actually debunk them all instead of trying to pick at less than 5% of the items listed.

There's nothing trollish about it. I asked your opinion on what Obama did with that money. C'mon, are you afraid to voice your opinion on that particular economic faux pax (read "crime.")

I went through them in order until I got bored. If I can debunk 100% of the first 10 or so, then I can reasonably assume they are all a crock.

Sorry, but I have no inclination to spend 2 hours pointing out the obvious.
Instead, how about you offer up a few of your favorites and most difficult to debunk?
If you can find a true "accomplishment" that I can't debunk and he wasn't forced into by a judge, then I will happily give him credit where it is due. This should be fun.
In its quest to promote taxpayer-funded entitlement programs, the Obama Administration has actually rewarded one state with a $5 million bonus for its efficiency in adding food-stamp recipients to already bulging rolls.
It’s part of the administration’s campaign to eradicate “food insecure households” by improving access and increasing participation in the government’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Incidentally, the program was recently changed to SNAP to eliminate the stigma that comes with a name like food stamps. Just a few months ago the federal agency that administers the program, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), launched a multi-million-dollar initiative to recruit more food-stamp participants even though the number of recipients has skyrocketed in the last few years.
This week Oregon officials bragged that the USDA has given the state $5 million in “performance bonuses” for ensuring that people eligible for food benefits receive them and for its “swift processing of applications.”
Could this be why the number of food-stamp beneficiaries in Oregon has increased dramatically in the last few years? Since 2008 the state has seen a 60% boost in the number of food-stamp recipients, which means that more than 780,000 people (one out of five Oregonians) get groceries compliments of Uncle Sam.

Dont pay attention to these planetary games.
“Even though fifty-some percent of the American people think that the economy tanked because of the last administration, that’s not relevant,” Biden stressed. “What’s relevant is we’re in charge. And right now we are the ones in charge and it’s gotten better, but it hasn’t gotten good enough.”
