What's this? Has the press finally figured out it bet on the wrong horse?

A do-gooder in over his head.

Jimmy Carter, 1976.

Barak Obama, 2008.

Obama said we must make sure "the disaffected have an effective outlet for their grievances, which assures them they are getting social services."

Absolutely incredible. This guy wants to be CinC, yet his thinking is still that of the Chicago "community organizer," dedicated to lobbying for "social services" for his urban clientele.

Not only is he the farthest left, he's the most pathetically unprepared Presidential candidate ever from any major party. But we need to let him into the White House, so we can "send a message" to the GOP. /s

The real problem is that the majority of the American people know almost zilch about foreign and military policy anymore. We can the liberal hijacking of the education system and MSM for this. At this point, most probably think the delivery of social services is more important than being CINC. Even scarier, they might think that delivering social services is a qualification for being CINC. And even McCain seems to think that Global Warming is our #1 long term security threat.

The press loved to derisively use Bush's middle initial as a nickname - "Dubya."

I think Obama deserves a nickname based on his middle initial , too, - "Aitch"

Barak Obama is no do-gooder. He is evil.

Perceived weakness is a disqualifier. Perception? Its reality.

Re: The good news for Obama is that he is getting a first-rate education on what it means to be commander in chief. The bad news - his teacher is John McCain.

By definition.

Mother Theresa was a do-gooder and holy.
