This articles got lots of fuel for the Obama fans, and it closes very well imo (though I can think of at least 6 first mistakes that it left out). Whats remarkable to me is that even when given a partial list of the Obama administrations fubars-as listed by leftist/Obama supporting sites-Obama supporters often deny any and all mistakes; dismiss them, degrade them. Ive even seen them declare that in the time between being elected and being sworn in he can do no wrong because, Barack Obama isnt even President yet.
While those same supporters suggest that his opponents (almost half the nation) give the man a chance (ie ignore his mistakes until X/Y/ZZ) theres a simply delicious irony that the right and Obamas opponents are enjoying right now. That irony is that as every day goes by, Obamas Administration is either
1) screwing up so bad that even his friendly media recognize it
2) changing his policies, positions, and promises to not only match, but EXCEED the hated George W Bush policies and John McCain promises
3) proving that it IS NOT INFALLIBLE
When Gov. Bill Richardson withdrew his nomination as commerce secretary earlier this week, NBCs Andrea Mitchell declared it the Obama teams first misstep.
On Nov. 7 just three days after the election Los Angeles KNBC said Obamas flubbed joke about Nancy Reagan and séances was his first misstep.
On Nov. 14, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban wrote a Huffington Post piece on Obamas economic advisory team titled President-Elect Obamas First Big Mistake.
Nov. 19, Michael Goodwin of the New York Daily News said Obamas secretary of state dealings with Hillary Clinton might just have been his first big mistake.

Don’t you know Obama has to be the first in everything? So it is no wonder he has made the first big mistake in every action so far. :-)
Barack Obama Is Not Even President Yet
***And with God’s help, the SCOTUS will rule he’s ineligible and will never get to be pres.
What a pantload. It's the media's ability to putting 0bama's mistakes behind him, not the 0 administration.
I sincerely pray daily that he is the first president-[s]elect kicked to curb for being foreign born.
[hey...it’s all the hope I got left]
Without Valerie Plame; Super Spy.
I guess Leon Panetta; Super Spy ; will have to pull double shifts to make up for it.
I agree with you in that prayer.
[frankly, THAT should be the daily “prayers for Obama” thread]
Technically even after he is sworn in he will be an imposter, a fraud and though many claim it cannot be done many do believe they can contest anything he says, any decree, initiative, law, mandate, emergency action.
With about 9 more days to go what most people do not realize is that a lot of legal proceedings against Obama were being held up until he is actually sworn in, at this stage figuratively he has a thousand misdemeanors, after he is sworn it its all felonies.
The real action starts as soon as he is sworn, THEN the shiite hits the fan, and he cannot stop it like many preach because he is an impotent president, a king of nothing, a fool on a stick.
This is not just a series of “first missteps”. They are hitting the ground running with their shoelaces tied together.
Maybe not so good for the country in the short run, but funny as heck to watch.
They could just tumble along for a while, and while tumbling, manage to get the shoelaces untied and roll back up on their feet and start really running.
If they can remember by then which direction they were going.
Not even president yet? Well he has been running his big mouth like one maybe he should take down that silly seal of the president elect and STFU.
Since He never has to account for His blunders, He can keep stupidly making them, just like a spoiled child. We are the ones who will have to pay.
They’d ban you - have you seen the prerequisites for that site?
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
Barry’s Fault.
I hope that neither Cheney or Rove reveal the secret identity of Leon Panetta, Super Spy.
Let Armitage have all the glory.
Don’t know ,...I’m not watching any of them.
No, nor do I want to.
I absolutely can not countenance “praying for” a person who just successfully pulled off a political coup with the backing of foreign/enemy money and ACORN.
Ain’t gonna do it.
Someday, I’ll have look God in the face and explain myself.
This is one less thing I’ll have to try and justify.
