When Failure Is Something to Brag About

One of the newsletters I get (sorry, can’t link to it) had this story:
Obama takes credit for U.S. economic recovery 
It's been five years since Lehman Brothers went belly-up, and the Obama administration is seeking to use the anniversary to take credit for the country's economic stabilization.
That’s really scary, because it means that he actually thinks things are going well and that there is ‘credit’ to be taken.

When I had employees who were doing a poor job, but knew it, I would have hope that, with help, they might be able to fix things. But those who were so clueless that they didn’t even realize they were screwing up were beyond hope. Obama is apparently in the latter category.
