Seeing as how the dims have had Congress for most of this time, and they have voted in favor of everything that the Republicans are doing, I think it's rather infantile to point the finger at one particular party while not pointing your finger at the other.
Oh no doubt the dems are not atleast partially responsible, but the price of being THE man is when shit goes bad, everyone looks at you..and in this case, his party. And I would bet that if you sit and took everything into account, the fucked up scales tip way more to the repub side of the house than the dem.
