Wouldn’t you love to see Obama live what John McCain had to endure? No way that twinkie would make it through.

“All he can do is talk.”

And he can’t do that without his teleprompter...

He has come a long way on a gift of gab and personal charm.

This is a useful article because it identifies one relevant aspect of Obama. His toxic agenda aside, he is a perfect example of a goobermint bureaucrat or a functionary for a Nonprofit NGO: what he likes most and does best is sit and have meetings. Talk.

He does little work, grabs credit from those who do more, and -- meets with other bureaucratic types who share his aversion to actual work.

Come to think of it, this is what a community organizer does--meets with people and jacks his jaws and talks ya-ya with the pols to milk some cash out of them.

Yet again I am surprised that people are surprised.

How is it possible that so many people, able to glean what they could of Obama’s record of “accomplishment”, able to form judgments about the nature of a man who wrote 2 books about himself by 45, able to see the protection afforded him by the press and the willful disregard for Obama’s gaffes along the way, able to ascertain his associations in his personal and professional life ... how is it possible that anyone is surprised now by what sort of person Barrack Obama turns out to be?

I mean I can understand the millions of sheeple beating blindly about the ‘historical’ aspects, and buying the bullshit hook line and sinker because there was nothing really presented to them to cause any dissonance.

But professionals, people who should have keen sensibilities ... did none of them at any point, being exposed to the questions about accomplishments, judgment, character, work ethic, etc., give any consideration to what they were seeing, and what it would mean if Obama was handed the most demanding executive position in the world???

Again, I am surprised that anyone is surprised.

No, unfortunately, I think we're stuck with this bozo...

If he tarnishes the Democrat brand enough, they'll stand by and let us take him down. That's why Nixon quit. The GOP said they would not defend an impeachment.

He's just a talking head with a teleprompter.

Who knows who runs the executive branch.

I think Obama's stamina is OK but he just has two big stumbling blocks--he doesn't want to work very hard, and he doesn't know how to do anything very useful.

His primary threat is his ability to get other grimfaced apparatchiks to do his dirty work while he stays serenely above it all.

He’s not lazy - he’s entirely consistant. He’s been doing the exact same thing he’s doing now his entire life. He is a professional front, and he makes no bones about it. He works out, eats well, parties, and says what he’s supposed to say while other people put things in front of him to sign. There are absolutely no surprises going on here at all, and to be shocked at this point is simply tedious.

Or does she have something on him?

He as well as Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter should have never been President of the United States. They are clearly not up to the task as none of them cared a flip about America or it’s people.

"High crimes and misdemeanors"

That's what you have to make stick.

The dims won't go along with an impeachment just because the guy is a bum. Besides, Nancy and Harry have to love this. They get to run the country while Obambi sleeps 'til noon...

They love it for now. When the money drys up, when the threats are more frequent than the praise, when they see the potential end of their petty reigns, they'll cut any President loose. Professional politicians are as much driven by the survival instinct as the cockroach. It's all about them.

well, actually I wouldn’t want ever again to see another American go thru what McCain did, but I can’t even imagine Obama (if he’d ever have put on the uniform) surviving the first week in one of the Vietnamese prisoner camps. Forget about the patriotism, he just doesn’t have the character.

Almost daily I wonder how it is that three times now, we’ve watched adolescent males defeat genuine men, war heroes, to serve as POTUS. We have become addicated to form over substance, and that does not bode well for this nation’s future.

Hmmm.....some one broke into the State Dept’s passport records. Sandy Burglar?. Nah.....he’s controversial and off the list for now. Joe Wilson.......? Nah....same thing. How many other career people were left over in State that were appointed by Slick Willie?

I would love it if somebody unplugged his teleprompter - on a regular basis.
