First Fineman, Now Broder: Obama’s A Toothless Tiger
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 03/14/2009 5:06:43 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

I thought the most newsworthy comment of the week by an inside-the-Beltway kibbitzer was this by Howard Fineman:

The OBumbler in Chief. They need to tape his mouth shut in order to prevent the financial markets from repeatedly crashing.

Rush was all over this playing clips of Buffett, Walsh and others going on TV to diss Zero's economy policies.

I will only believe he is toothless and harmless when he is officially out of office.

Excellent point. So long as he has the power of appointment to the Sup. Ct. and all administrative agencies, can start or stop wars, etc., he has lots of power, even if no one respects or fears him.

David Broder is telling the MSM Press they don’t have to follow President “Thelma & Louise” over the cliff.

Actually, your right once they smell blood in the water and they don't want to look more foolish than they already do there will be a ruff time for Obama. I think his people must already know this and that is why the all out assault on Rush Limbaugh.

I agree. Scariest president ever. The repercussions of these spending bills alone will be felt for decades. And that’s just one scary aspect; there are many others.

Russians are moving bombers into our hemisphere.

Chinese are trying to get a "special" deal on TBills

Congressional dems loaded up the stimulus with so much pork that it won't save the economy

and Ma-shell refuses to stop wearing muscle dresses.

Obama correctly judged the intelligence of his Libtard supporters. He told them whatever they wanted to hear so he could get elected, and what they didn’t hear they projected onto him. Now he is doing whatever he wants and dimbulbs like Broder, et. al. are shocked and suprised.
