Many Rabid Cons are Bloviating about Obama not taking Responsibility

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/video/obama-responsibility-12046526"]Obama: "I take responsibility" (for the 2010 election results)

More from link above:

Senior Obama Campaign Adviser Axelrod: Obama "Takes Responsibility For Everything That Happens On His Watch." Senior Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod appeared on Fox News Sunday and when discussing the Benghazi attack, stated: "At the top-line level, the president of the United States takes responsibility for everything that happens on his watch."


Obama: That's what the President said back in July. In the same interview, he went on to say, "one of the things you learn is, you are ultimately responsible for the conduct of your operations."
