Former GOP Rep: Obama is “Not Competent” to be President; “But We’re Stuck with the Guy” – Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | September 9, 2010 | Brian

Here is video of former New York GOP Rep. John LeBoutillier on with Don Imus this morning, where he flat out said that Barack Obama is not “competent” to be President.

LeBoutillier compared Obama to former President Jimmy Carter – whom he also said was not competent.

“He (Obama) has come into focus, and he is not up to being a leader of the United States of America – he can’t do it. But, we’re stuck with the guy. So, we’re floundering around as a country.”

That pretty well sums it up. Our situation is a stark reminder of the consequences of electing a President for any other reason than whether or not the person is qualified, and stands for the principles that have made America great. Obama does not fit the bill on either count. That was plain as the nose on your face all through 2008.

I think he meant to say foundering, not floundering.

This is what you get when eighty percent of the media are camp followers.

The MSM elected Obama...and they will never recover.

WHAT? My goodness, the poor benighted fellow should have a chat with Juan McCain. After all, Juan ENDORSED Hussein, claiming he was eminently qualified for the position. But then Juan only attacks CONSERVATIVES, not American hating leftists.

One of the best lines I ever heard about obama came from Imus;

“He’s not just stupid. He’s jimmy carter stupid.”

Why do so many people think Obama is incompetent? He isn’t. He means to destroy America as we know it. And he is doing a good job. Obama never meant to preserve the republic. He stated as much. His stated goal is socialism and total government control. He has done that very well in just 19 months.

He told Joe the Plumber the truth. That’s why the press went after Joe. Smoke and mirrors. Everyone was completely sidetracked by the attack and Obama’s admission was forgotten.

If you’re still struggling you’re floundering.

I think he has given up.

No big deal either way, but he is talking about our country floundering about as a result of Obama’s policies.

“This is what you get when eighty percent of the media are camp followers.”

And the leopard doesn’t change its spots - I had the misfortune to be in an airport yesterday when CNN gave Obama 45 minutes gratis for a campaign speech. Made me sick.
