If any president attempted to "close all the hospitals" he would be removed from office so quickly it would make our heads spin.

And the comment about "blaming those in the past" is pretty ridiculous also. We are blaming "those in the past" because they physically brought us to our knees, bringing us to by far the lowest point in our lifetimes. People ignore what just happened to us at the end of Bush's term; Exactly half the people on my street lost their house. Many more lost their jobs. It just doesn't get any worse than that. Everything we are doing today is because of what happened with the recession.
