I think he simply lied about these things, though I admit there's plenty in the clueless category.

Obama's bin lyin about his entire life story and his aims. He is a marxist and his aims are marxist...from the economy, to our military, to foreign policy, to social issues.

Understanding that lets you read Obama regardless of what words he speaks.

OBAMA, THE STOCK MARKET, AND ENERGY

I think he lied a lot as you said, but I also think he is learning an awful lot about reality in the past weeks and months.

For much of the campaign he sounded like an ivory tower elite or idealist college student because he simply does not have enough real world experience to be able generate real solutions to real problems. Now, he is dealing with these problems in real time. IMO, this is scary to have such a newbie in this position. That said, his selections so far for cabinet and advisers are about as good as we could have hoped. On the whole, he is not filling the White House with other newbie and far lefties, but those with practical experience.

Since liberals have no convictions, the means to the end is whatever it takes. Say or do whatever it takes to gain power. I want my tax cut, LOL!!

Obama and many others suffer from Asst.Manager syndrome. They have all the answers until they are asked to run the store. Reality sucks.

That is a positive sign. But they still want to steal your money and children, so I plan to apply the same amount of goodwill to them as was given to Bush.

That is, I wish Obama to be ridiculed and ostracized because he really is a life and death threat. A lot of soldiers will needlessly die because of this idiot, as well as unborn and many others.

What’s with all the news conferences and that stupid “Office of the President Elect” sign. This guy is clueless. I think he thinks he has been crowned the king

Wait till he has to deal with "Pooty-Poot" Putin. We've got an affirmative action Ivy League lawyer, with a chief of staff that thinks he's "Don Corleone" dealing with a KGB thug who has killed many men in order to get and stay in power.

Obama better keep wearing dark pants so when he cr#ps his shorts, it won't show.

His entire campaign was a lie. The truth came out rarely amd only accidentally...like spreading the wealth around.

> And Obama has begun to find this out the hard way in just the 20 days since he was elected.

I think his four years is going to be shambolic. He doesn’t have any experience and he doesn’t really know how to convert his ideas into reality.

On that basis, I suggest look for the power-behind-the-throne, the hand-up-the-backside-of-the-sockpuppet.

Who might that be? Michelle? Could be: she at least has *some* experience. I’m going to guess it will be someone in the political sphere, tho’. But who...?

"Obama may decide he wants to keep the road open in certain cases for the CIA to use techniques not approved by the military, but with much greater oversight."

This means, "...just run it by me before you do it, and if anybody finds out what happened, I´ll throw you under the bus in a heartbeat. Thanks."

Has any previous President-elect had such a podium shield made up for themselves? I don't recall Bush or even Clinton having such a thing.

Or perhaps someone with an olive-colored tan and a body scent of goats and camels...

Les Aspin was the classic example. He made a career out of criticizing DoD management/leadership. He gets named SecDef and makes “politically correct decisions” that get soldiers killed in Mogadishu... The pressure is too much and eventually he dies pretty much as a “broken man”.

Obama’s election is beginning to look more like a Clinton third term!

The “practical experience” of which you speak was to earn a commission for getting us in the mess we are in.

Obama has such wonderful charisma that these rats on the sinking ship will praise Obama’s name when they jump into the deep blue sea.
