(CNSNews.com) – First Lady Michelle Obama said Friday that her husband, President Barack Obama, was not “pointing fingers” and blaming anyone for the economic crisis happening when he took office. But one day before, on Thursday, Obama blamed the policies of “the previous president” for the ongoing weak economy. Appearing at a Las Vegas campaign stop on Friday, Mrs. Obama said that the president did not blame anyone else for the economic crisis he inherited. “He inherited an economy in rapid decline,” she said. “But instead of pointing fingers, instead of placing blame, your president got to work because he was thinking about folks like my dad and like his grandmother.”
However, at a rally in Ohio on Thursday, President Obama blamed “that philosophy in the decade before I took office” and the policies of the “previous president.”
