Where Obama went wrong: How failing to “seize the radical moment” explains his terrible week

Salon ^ | November 8, 2014 | Elias Isquith

Do these people even live in the same galaxy that we do?

[Diogenesis]

What do they smoke at Salon?

[SpaceBar]

Oxygen depravation from the sphincter around their necks.

[lurk]

It was the perception that the radical moment was being seized that led to the week’s election results.

Not expecting the libs to understand this.

[IronJack]

The delusion is strong with this one.

[Graybeard58]

Because Obama is a miserable failure at everything he does or fails to do.

[5thGenTexan]

So 9/11 was no big deal to these people?!?!

[Veto!]

Judging by his post-election press conference on Wednesday, the wave of bad news hasn’t really dampened the president’s spirits.

Because he's mentally ill, on drugs, and totally in denial. And so is the writer, apparently.

[Rennes Templar]

“...but insists that there is no “substantive reason why Obama has lost altitude.”

Funny!

[Veto!]

LOL…but not MAO, un uh.

[jospehm20]

Apparently not.

[Louis Foxwell]

I think not. Theirs is the Never Never Land of pipe dreams and empty orgasms. One must be far to the left of the moon to discern Obama as too centrist and mired in the status quo to win the day.
We now have a golden opportunity to change the conversation, something most in this country sincerely desire. If the Pubbie leadership continues to play their status quo game we will lose more than an opportunity. We will lose our country.

[Dick Bachert]

That looks almost as uncomfortable as getting your ass kicked in a mid-term!

[Sasparilla]

Salon? More like Saloon. Obama fails the test for leadership.
He brought ALL of this on himself through his arrogance and ineptness.

[Hugin]

GW Bush inherited a recession, and within the first year had the Chinese capture one of our planes, and of course that little problem on 9/11/01. You never heard Bush whine about how tough he had it.

[JimSEA]

So if Obama had trashed the Constitution and ruled as a dictator, all would be well? Thanks for letting us know what is coming, if not under Obama, then under Elizabeth Warren or Hillary.

[SpaceBar]

Leave Omoeba alone!

[Calvin Locke]

If it's Salon, it's time to head for a saloon.

I had to contain dry heaves after reading just the opening sentence.

[Salman]

The president isn’t dictator enough for some people.

[driftdiver]

How he went wrong? He went wrong for America when he left Kenya.
