When President Obama delivers the commencement address at Kalamazoo Central High School in Kalamazoo, Michigan Monday night, he'll emphasize to the class of 2010 that he believes success is achieved through personal responsibility.

"Don't make excuses," Obama will say, according to excerpts released Monday afternoon by the White House. "Take responsibility not just for your successes, but for your failures as well."

"The truth is, no matter how hard you work, you won't necessarily ace every class or succeed in every job," Obama will say. "There will be times when you screw up, when you hurt the people you love, when you stray from your most deeply held values."

Mr. President, take some "responsibility" for what you have done. Do what you will tell the young graduates to do. You are responsible for our high unemployment rate - you have put this country deeply in debt - you pushed through a scam of a health care bill that most of us did not want - we remember your world apology tour telling most of the people you visited what a terrible country the U.S. has been until you arrived - and your inept handling of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
