Often we are quick to find blame with others but yet are unable to give constructive responses. There seems to be a tendency to doubt almost everything. Do we not have faith in our own people's strengths and in our institutions? Can we afford distrust amongst ourselves?
I've criticized President Bush for his failure to use his veto pen. There's plenty of blame to go around. The question is how to solve problems. It's not bailouts. What made America great? Free markets free enterprise manufacturing job creation. That's how we're gonna do it not by enlarging government.
Everybody keeps saying that India's a poor country. Yes we have poverty. But I blame the government of India the political establishment for their failure to educate and therefore their failure to control the poverty.

The failure of world leaders to act on the critical issue of global warming is often blamed on economic considerations.
A man can get discouraged many times but he is not a failure until he begins to blame somebody else and stops trying.

A man can fail many times but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.
A great deal has been written in recent years about the purported lack of motivation in the children of the Negro ghettos. Little in my experience supports this yet the phrase has been repeated endlessly and the blame in almost all cases is placed somewhere outside the classroom.
We experience problem-solving sessions as war zones we view competing ideas as enemies and we use problems as weapons to blame and defeat opposition forces. No wonder we can't come up with real lasting solutions!

You cannot blame the mismanagement of the economy or the fact that we have not invested adequately in education in order to give our people the knowledge the skills and the technology that they need in order to be able to use the resources that Africa has to gain wealth.
The dream doesn't lie in victimization or blame it lies in hard work determination and a good education.
I was just a kid and I didn't have a dad. That's hard because when you're a kid you blame yourself for everything. And I blamed myself for him not being around for my parents not being together.
I fear some of our leaders today have lost the courage to stand up. What we have now are politicians. They won't offer real plans and only stand up when they want to blame someone else.

Hope and change? We're not doing that anymore. They're doing attack and blame. And so I just think people are going to see through this. They want real leadership. They want us to get this country on the right track.

I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up I change bats. After all if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting how can I get mad at myself?

Barack Obama's life was so much simpler in 2009. Back then he had refined the cold act of blaming others for the bad economy into an art form. Deficits? Blame Bush's tax cuts. Spending? Blame the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. No business investment? Blame Wall Street.
I actually was class clown but I don't know how that happened because I've never been considered an outwardly funny person.
