This guy is awesome. Let’s just get this fact out right up front. Barack Obama has no executive experience. Period. Any question about his executive experience is a trick question, and Obama should know that. It cannot logically be answered because he has never been an executive and thus cannot have any executive experience. But being Barack, I guess he can Hope for some. Hope counts for something, doesn’t it?
So when Anderson Cooper asks Obama to compare his executive experience to that of Sarah Palin, The Messiah almost made me spray my coffee. Partial transcript follows the video.
According to Obama: “My understanding is that Gov. Palin’s town, Wassilla, has I think 50 employees. We’ve got 2500 in this campaign. I think their budget is maybe 12 million dollars a year – we have a budget of about three times that just for the month,” Obama responded.
It is interesting that his experience is compared to her time as mayor and not her time as governor of Alaska. Alaska has a budget of $2.9 billion.

A smile wide and two teeth deep!!!! - all style no substance. He flashes that smile. Hillary's wrong, Obama has more than a speech he gave in 2002; he has the smile too.
I almost fell over last night on Brit Hume’s show when Mort Kondracke said almost the same thing - when challenged about Obama’s lack of experience, Mort replied that he has more than Gov Palin “because he’s been running for President the past two years.” I swear if the other panelists had been drinking anything, they would have had a group spew! I’m still laughing at it...
I think this nailed the coffin on a nut case.
Please bury this man in a deep hole and let’s not ever see something like this again.
What is Nancy Pelosi’s executive experience? After all she is just two heartbeats away from the Presidency.
Hillary’s campaign “ended” tens of millions in debt.
An administration that left such a trainwrecked economy would be a disaster for the nation.
An elected leader steers the course for a brief while, but the wagon will continue to roll after the reigns have been passed.
An election has an “end game”, election to a higher office. The budget has a single goal. The available money is freely given/solicited, not taken by forced taxation.
Barack Hussein Obama has been running for president since 2004.
Obama had 4 days to come up with an answer and THIS is the best he can do? Besides, he doesn’t actually RUN the day today operations of the campaign. He has hired someone else to do that.
Look in the dictionary under narcissism and there is a picture of Obama. Everything is all about him.
For one thing, any decision he makes about a campaign only affects his chances to dupe the public about his candidacy. Not very meaningful except to him.
Every decision a Governor makes affects every citizen of the state in a meaningful way.
If he’s going to cite the way he runs his scampaign as “experience” to run the country, how GREEN is his campaign? Do they use non-petroleum energies?
Do they offer full medical plans for all workers regardless of job level?
Do they perform background checks before letting someone “in”?
Do his campaign offices offer free child care for all employees?
Do his campaign workers get paid “a living wage”?
Th’ guys got no executive experience at any level; business, professional, governmental, anything. Sarah Palin has been effectively RUNNING A STATE, for cryin’ out loud.
Do the Demmies ever stop and think how absolutely thin on substance they appear? If these bastards win this election, I’m moving to MEXICO!
Sorry to offend.
Nader can’t be controlled like the Obama Puppet—so he will vanish. Obama is a one trick pony. After he loses he will go back to the Senate and become a new Teddy. Maybe he will even grow into a good senator with time.
