Mr. Obama, you need to take responsibility

Poor President Barack Obama.

No one told him that an ambassador was pleading for extra security.

No one told him that the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms was giving guns to the Mexican drug cartel.

No one told him that the Internal Revenue Service was subjecting conservative groups to undue scrutiny.

No one told him that the Veterans Administration was not serving our nation’s heroes.

If the heads of these departments did not report these conditions to their boss, they were derelict in their duties and deserved to be fired.

Now, who would be so careless as to appoint such incompetents?

I understand it was Harry Truman, a Democrat, who said, “The buck stops at the Oval Office.”
