He is out of his league. He is clearly stumbling from day to day hoping some big news breaks his way so he can look “presidential”.

He is crazy. A pathological liar that makes Clinton look like a saint.

Obama should be in an institution for insanity, not the capital.

“He is out of his league.”

He keeps randomly throwing stuff against the wall and hoping something will stick. Obama is completely clueless.

The man behind the curtain? My guess is anyone who holds a "leadership" position in a labor union.

Most of what he is throwing comes form the floor of a cattle car!

Obama has bet the farm on a pipe-dream of renewable energy.

He has left this country vulnerable to oil price shocks.

Treason and Insanity.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
