Define The Blame Game Meaning

The Blame Game
It's accusations exchanged among people who refuse to accept sole responsibility for some undesirable event - both in daily conversations as well as discussions regarding sports, politics, etc.
It can be a way to avoid shame, distrust or minor sentiments of agony.

Political Party Blame Game
When people (most famously pundits like Hannity, O'Reilly, Olbermann, ect.) blame all of our problems and nitpick the problems of their opposing party. While not touching on subjects that portray THEIR party negatively.

Or more simply, somebody of one party blames all of their countries problems on their opposing party. While ignoring anything negative their party has done to the country.

Olbermann wouldn't stop talking about how Bush was ruining America, but doesn't say how Obama is ruining America.

While Hannity didn't say how Bush was ruining America, but tells how Obama is ruining America.

These are prime examples of the political party blame game. Blame everything

Big Pharma Blame Game
When big pharma is allowed to produce and unlimited amount of pain medication and never gets any blame for the drug problems in the country. This is the essence of big pharma blame game.

When the government issues a license to a pain clinic and the doctors overperscribe medication and the federal court blames the owner of clinic and sentences the granted license holder to 20 years in prison. This would be the scapegoat of the big pharma blame game.
