An idiot surrounded by idiots. In The Price of Politics Bob Woodward writes about a CEO who says at the Obama White House “we talk to people we wouldn’t hire.”
Andrew Stiles reported at National Review:
Larry Summers, former head of the National Economic Council, thought having Jarrett represent the White House was a mistake. Business leaders “felt patronized and offended by Valerie,” Summers told Woodward, largely due to her tendency to insist that she spoke for the president, and an approach to problem-solving that involved little more than scheduling multiple lunch meetings. One CEO complained to Alter that “when we go to the White House, we talk to people we wouldn’t hire.” Alter himself has likened Jarrett’s role in the White House to “the CEO putting his sister in charge of marketing.”
I have to wonder how the CEO who said that voted.
How succinct is that?
Well.. you have to understand that Obama doesn’t like anyone around him that is smarter than him. And since he is dumb as a box a nails, that means those around him are not up to mopping a McDonalds floor much less helping to run the country.
There are outstanding individuals on the govt payroll, but I wager the vast majority would have a hard competing in the private sector.
Government Security Officer: When we go to the White House, we talk to people we wouldn’t clear.
If you really want to piss Obama off then make something happen that will require his presence when his favorite NCAA basketball bracket match-up is being played.
I think they have it backwards. Obama is the unemployable little brother of the boss. Valerie is the boss, though there are others she reports to.
An incompetant manager hires incompetant sycophants to work under him. With as much obvious and abject failure produced by this White House, you would think someone would get fired and people would be brought in to help the WH recover it’s footing. So far, all we have seen is the opposite - the few competant WH aides like Rahm and Bill Daley leave, while the truly, densely stupid like Jarrett only accrue more power. I’m stunned the liberal press either hasn’t wanted to push the WH to bring in better talent, or simply can’t penetrate Obama’s thick skull.
“There are outstanding individuals on the govt payroll, but I wager the vast majority would have a hard competing in the private sector.”
I don’t know, Gene...maybe you’re luck you don’t have to compete... incomplete sentences and all...
Case in point...Joe (Numbnuts) Biden
I thought Obama spoke for Valerie.
So much for "the smartest guy in any room he's standing in," huh? The rest of America, and the world, is starting to see what we've known all along:
O'Bunghole is a mouth-breathing imbecile, and he's surrounded himself with like-minded rutebagas. I just love it when a vile Liberal plan unravels amidst the fanfare of public display!
President Douchebag and his pack of drooling ninnies.
LMAO!!!
;-\
when he has permission
This is like the political officers in the Soviet Union. Didn’t matter if they were competent. They were ideologically trustworthy.
There are likely some wholesome, family orientated, still married, God loving, patriots that work for the government. But most are either not qualified or not competent enough to hold an equivalent position in the private sector for the money and benefits they are getting. Does that better translate it? Then I agree. Soldiers are also on the govt payroll.

One of the cardinals of good management is surrounding yourself with people who can do your job. Co-workers or subordinates, you are always looking for the person that will replace you. It may sound backwards at first but in essence you are surrounding yourself with the best people you can find and thus making your life easier in the process.
All that said, Barack chose Joey Choo Choo. What does that tell you?
Wow. That’s weird.
