WHat a headline to have only about 60 days after his inauguration.

LOL!

Worries grow that Barack Obama & Co. have a competence problem

Do ya think...?

[jersey117]

I can’t believe the NY Daily News is turning on zero too. His incompetence must be coming through loud and clear.

[culpeper]

Surprising for the Daily News, they are pretty left wing.

a veteran Democratic pol approached me with a pained look on his face and asked, "Do you think they know what they're doing?"

Duh, NO!!!

[cripplecreek]

That’s what happens when you elect a man based on what he promises to do rather than what he’s already done. (Which is exactly diddly squat)

[bestintxas]

sounds similar to hat they said about Carter’s team, doesn’t it?

[swatbuznik]

It sounds like all smokescreen to me, but I wonder if he might not be having doubts about his own Marxist ideals? Or cold feet? It may have sounded good to have a civil uprising against him so he can exert control through military means, but it may just be too intense for him to go through?

Just thinking out loud here...

Goodwin has been after O nearly from the start.

I suspect it’s more about how he treats the media than any concern for the country.

[Don Carlos]

Morning after remorse! Sorry, Dems. You can’t un-ring the bell.

[bamagirl1944]

Are they finding chinks in the armor, do you think?

[Joe Boucher]

The “magic negro”?
How about the inept negro?
But he has a nice smile.

[Islander7]

Buyer's Remorse!

We tried to tell you fools!

Say hello to President Barney Fife.

Next gambit: any allegations of "incompetence" will be chalked up to "racism."

You heard it HERE first.

[capt. norm]

He was selling totally GENERIC change with no specifics which =

They couldn't wait to vote him in and now they get a good look at their purchase and buyer's remorse sets in.

This is a good reason why he insists everything is a crisis and must be done quickly....before people get a chance to see what he's really up to. Bills that go through Congress without time for them to be read would be a good example.

[Jess Kitting]

Perhaps it was a bid to combat the Geithner blues that led Larry Summers, Obama's top economic adviser . . .

Is this the same Larry Summers who was castigated while President of Harvard for making "sexist" comments? What's he doing as a member of Obama's team?

Do liberals have such short memories, or are they just hypocrites?

Perhaps Summers has done his "penance" by donating to or promoting some ultra-liberal cause. I guess all has been forgiven.

[ebersole]

He’s only incompetent if one view’s is through a natural born American, republic form of government and capitalistic lense. The lense in which this idiot views himself, us and the world, he is perfectly competent and doing exactly as his previous actions indicated he would.

[DarthVader]

I think Obama is going to set a new standard for incompetence the likes we have never seen.
