Democrat Representative Dennis Cardoza of California bitterly announced his retirement yesterday and the five-term congressman also took the liberty of lambasting President Obama on his way out. In a post by Jim Hoft of www.thegatewaypundit.com he elaborates on how Cardoza “issued a scathing parting shot at President Obama’s track record on his way out”.

In a statement describing the reasons for his decision to retire, Cardoza claimed he was “dismayed” by the administration’s “failure to understand and effectively address the current housing foreclosure crisis”.

“Home foreclosures are destroying communities and crushing our economy, and the Administration’s inaction is infuriating,” Cardoza said.

Cardoza is the sixth Democrat to announce intentions to retire. There are many Democrats who are keeping their distance from Obama, and this is most evident in the Senate where Democrats control the majority and even they will not pass his jobs bill. The bill had failed to pass a couple weeks ago and it failed again recently.

830.5 miles to go.

Here is what happened one year ago on Day53.
