As far as I can tell, Obama has never exhibited any leadership. But, hey, I’m just a dumb conservative right?

Obama is really failing today! DOW is now -158 down; 7,206.
Way to go Obama.

Break out sessions? That's what high schoolers do to organize the prom.

The insanity before my eyes is unbelievable.

“Barack Obama is not a leader by nature”

Really?I thought the term “Zero” meant there was nothing he DIDN’T know...wow, learn something new everyday!

He is the most intelligent guy when no one else is around...

I see no leadership qualities either. His whole life has one of others manipulating him.

And not a drop of economic background to help when we need it the most!

He’s turning our Government into an appendage of ACORN before our very eyes! This is how ACORN ‘organizes’ in neighborhoods. This is the only experience he has. I am going to wait 6 months and then ask all my Lib friends ‘how’s this all working out for ya?’. What a mess!

If he had a thought and farted at the same time he’d blow his brains out.

Failing would indicate that he had some form of leadership to begin with. I must have missed it.

The real story is Jindhal. This is his keynote moment. Obama built his vault to the presidency on a key speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. Jindhal needs a Reagan moment. If they were smart, they would do the Republican response in a large room with a very supportive audience. It should be grand and historic looking. Jindhal’s speech should be on basic American Values, hard work, saving, fair play, rewarding success and then offer solutions that are more fiscally sound than what we have been getting over the last month. Throw in thunderous applause and uplifting rhetoric and you’ve set up a choice. Both are exotic candidates but which one shares our values?

Game on.

0bama is a bright and shining star.

And like a bright and shining star, it will take light years for his brilliance to reach us.

I think he may turn out to be our weakest President ever. He has ceded control of economic policy to congress at a time when that is the most critical problem we face. He’s a figurehead.

“..Obama has never exhibited any leadership..”

He has about as much leadership as Kim Young Il has. Republican congressmen should understand that they are NOT dealing with fellow Americans but that the situation in Congress is similar to that prevailing at Panmunyong.

So, I have to ask. Is anyone even paying attention to how the markets are reacting to the Obama Marxist/Socialist fiscal agenda? God help us!

Most of the Republicans in the Senate, at least, won’t understand that. The House Republicans seem to understand this.
