Obama's Newest Excuse: Lazy Americans
Townhall ^ | 11-14-11 | John Ransom

Posted on 11/14/2011 6:37:36 AM PST by Driftwood1

Obama took his You Don’t Love Me Enough reelection tour on the road to the 57th state this weekend on his way to a less hostile, foreign audience.

No, the stopover wasn’t in Kenya.

It was in Hawaii on his way to Bali, Indonesia, as a part of a new election strategy that aims to capture the entire foreign vote for Obama and the Democrats.

Hey, and why not?

No one has done more for those thrifty, industrious, hard working foreign countries than Obama has. And under Obama’s executive amnesty program it’ll be easier than ever for foreigners to register and vote for him via absentee ballot.

When he said Transforming America, he wasn’t kidding.

In the stopover in Hawaii, in anticipation of speechifying to foreigners, the President of the United States revised slightly his grand apology speech on behalf of all of us Ugly Americans who are responsible for the world’s ills.

You’ll remember that in return for a Noble “Peace” Prize, Obama toured the world in 2009 apologizing for how great the United States is- and presumably for not firing up enough cruise missiles to prove it.

How dare we have fair and free elections? How dare we not persecute people because of religious and political beliefs? How dare we insist that Saddam get due process and be tried under Iraqi courts and laws? Didn’t we know that we could have just turned him over to an extra legal mob as we did Gaddafi, and have him beaten to death and his body sodomized?

We are soooo, sorry. Start minting the peace prize!

Instead, Obama wants everyone to know that the state of the economy in the US and the world has a simple explanation that has nothing to do with him.

Americans are lazy, says our commander-in-chief.

I love how Obama disses Americans and this Country whenever he gets a chance, and while he's in foreign countries.

Gee, Zero may be right. What he doesn’t say is that “lazy Americans” vote for Democrats.

Americans are lazy, says our commander-in-chief.

I will grant that there are far too many lazy Americans. The thing ZerO failed to mention during his little speech is that they are all his supporters.

This is what psychologists call “projection”. Obama is about the last person in America who should be calling anyone lazy.

Condescension does not wear well on Americans. And Barry cannot open his mouth without being condescending.

Obama addresses the topics he knows best. Today’s focus was laziness. Spot on, Obama is a professional sloth.

I agree!!! We are Lazy Americans.

If we the people,would only freely, accept ‘economic justice redistribution plans’ outlined by the good president,primarily for our own benefit, this nations problems would disappear overnight!!!

“Lazy Americans” is the same refrain that Africans have when they drive through much of DC, and other “urban” areas. I wonder if he thought about it while golfing, playing basketball, or dreaming about Larry Sinclair.

In Obama’s world, everything he has done has been correct. It is just the citizen that has gotten lazy, not kept up with science and math like the rest of the world, so if only the citizens were pulling their weight, Obama’s policies would work.

Barry the blamer. The problem is never him.

Well, not content with the idiot, greedy, corrupt (Democrat base vote), and illegals and criminals, the dead and imaginary, Obama and the Dems could use the foreign vote...let the “citizens of the World” vote in USA elections.

Economy bad because Americans lazy?

Why not use the traditional North Korea excuse of “bad weather”?
