It's particularly dumb in this case because the situation long preceded Obama's oath of office. Bush came into office with a strong economy and a budget surplus, and by the end of his term we had the biggest debt in history, so it seems not ENTIRELY off-base to blame some of our economic trouble on his policies.

But it's generally true that any president at best has a tiger by the tail, where it comes to managing the economy.
