He's only 48 years old!! These people are in way over their heads, already!!

[AD from SpringBay]

After all that experience at community organization and that half-term as a senator, who knew we were electing a lightweight, unprepared, puppet?

...the new president is not getting enough rest.

That's what happens when you party (on the taxpayers' dime) every night of the week.

We need to see a new iconic photo of Prez Obama slumped over his desk just like the classic one of LBJ.

They also need to keep the lights in the Oval Office on 24/7 just like the unoccupied office high up in the Kremlin that was always lit late. So that Muscovites could look up and see that Stalin was always toiling late into the night on their behalf.

Sources close to the White House say Mr Obama and his staff have been "overwhelmed" by the economic meltdown and have voiced concerns that the new president is not getting enough rest.

It took a foreign news source to voice that Obama and his staff are "overwhelmed" by their jobs?! Maybe Obama should stay in the White House and do his job instead of flying all over the nation like he's still campaigning...but on the other hand, the less he does the less damage he can do to the nation, so if they need a hang fueling up Airforce 1 I hope they give me a call.

[A_Former_Democrat]

He’s “overwhelmed” all right. This SOB is in way over his head.

[ditto h]

Give Obama a break. He is up late and working very hard...to destroy my country.

But Washington figures with access to Mr Obama's inner circle explained the slight by saying that those high up in the administration have had little time to deal with international matters,...

[DesertRhino]

Hell, ive never been in government, and i know how the joint press conference goes *just from watching TV*.
Im gonna go out on a limb and say i would have even thought the DVDs might have seemed tacky as an official state gift.

Inexperience doesnt excuse rude or tacky.

[bgill]

Cut out all the jetting around the country and parties at taxpayers’ expense and maybe the poor widdle baby won’t be so tired.

[John W]

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if this was true as he has never done anything, period. But, it is surprising that “sources close to the White House” are actually saying this out loud to someone. Why?

[Carley]

Perhaps he has an undisclosed illness?

[ETCM]

"the president's surprise at the sheer volume of business that crosses his desk"

You can't just vote "Present" when you're POTUS.

[stayathomemom]

Those visits to the gym are doing nothing to improve his stamina.

[deannadurbin]

If he’s too tired it’s not because he’s concentrating on his job but that he’s GOING TO TOO MANY COCKTAIL PARTIES, damn him!!! Don’t you DARE tell me this commie bastard has a conscience about this country’s decaying economy!

‘This party atmosphere sends the wrong message’

President Bush must have been in better shape physically and mentally ‘cause he took on 9/11, war, economy, the MSM, and everything else seemingly without effort.

(Blessings on GW and his family)

[NonValueAdded]

Sweet Mary and Joseph, that’s not the excuse they gave, is it??? Holy carp, even if it was true - and the cure is to stop jetting across the country for every 25 jobs “created” - don’t put that weakness on display for our sworn enemies with a track record of miscalculation to see. That’s just plain reckless.

[KevinDavis]

Well if is to tired to give a proper welcome maybe he is too tired to be President..

Sources close to the White House say Mr Obama and his staff have been "overwhelmed" by the economic meltdown and have voiced concerns that the new president is not getting enough rest. British officials, meanwhile, admit that the White House and US State Department staff were utterly bemused by complaints that the Prime Minister should have been granted full-blown press conference and a formal dinner, as has been customary. They concede that Obama aides seemed unfamiliar with the expectations that surround a major visit by a British prime minister.

But Washington figures with access to Mr Obama's inner circle explained the slight by saying that those high up in the administration have had little time to deal with international matters.

Translation: They are incompetent and overwhelmed. Doesn't seem as they care, either.
As each day goes by, I get more worried about our nation. And the question remains: How long until the MSM realizes how bad he is and turns on him? Will the Chicago homies then go after the MSM? Something's gonna give sooner or later, we just can't stay on this course.

[I Hate Obama]

John McCain could have handled it and his age is equal to all the times Obama says “uhhh” without a teleprompter.
