A kid working at McDonald’s has produced more wealth and understands business better than the empty suit. It’s an insane world when the media successfully hanged the word ‘inexperience’ upon the GOP VP candidate, when the main democrat is more inexperienced than just about anyone.
He sure is. Obama will always be a rookie, in that, he will never learn to be a leader, nor anything else. All he has is hope, and hope gets you nothing, unless you have the brains to do more than just hope, which O doesn't.
This whole administration reminds me of the Kucinich fiasco here in Cleveland back in the 70s . . . total incompetents, childish, ignorant, amateurish, unprofessional, kids, totally out of touch with reality, dangerous, and stupid, right from the top down. What a gaggle of goof balls, and we have them in, of all places, the White House!!!! Just incredible!
Somebody in the Dummycrat Party has GOT TO BE EMBARRASSED AND ASHAMED!!!!!
‘The Entourage Presidency.’
This guy is such a piker.
“As usual Thomas Sowell hit the nail square on the head”
Almost. What I don’t agree with is the idea it’s a series of “rookie errors.” I think he is far more in control of his agenda than we want to believe. I maintain the amount of frenzy we’re seeing on the political and economic fronts is designed to keep the common rubes’ little minds busy with the movements of one hand, while the dark and nefarious stuff is done by the other, unseen hand.
FWIW, exactly the same could be said of Mr. Lincoln. Prior to being elected president, he'd never run any organization other than a couple of comprehensively failed business ventures in his youth.
It is generally admitted, even by those who despise him, that he is the most effective politician in American history.
Reminds me of that 70's (?) author who spoke about "The Peter Principle", which if I can remember correctly had something to do with "the most incompetent will rise to the top" or something like that......
He should be ashamed of himself. He needs to resign and return his income since taking the job.....or have it taxed at 90%.
Obama's a real rookie and makes rookie mistakes-check.
Obama reassured Iran we will not oppose their nuclear ambitions in the State of the Union speech-check.
Obama is making a mistake by snubbing our allies-check.
Obama's first call was to Hamas. I had not heard this. I thought it was to Fatah.
The Emperor Has No Brain.
And with the veteran players being the likes of Biden and Hillary, the executive branch is now the equivalent of the Detroit Lions.
The kid on our paper route has more business experience than O'Bambi.
Lincoln loved his country and wouldn't marry someone who didn't. Lincoln didn't need ACORN to get elected. Lincoln wasn't beholden to money interests like George Soros.
Lincoln wanted to preserve the Union. Obama wants to preserve his position as he continues to campaign for the job he just got.
I like that. The Emporer Has No Brain would make a nice bumper sticker.
Wrong.
The Peter Principle theorizes that a person will rise to one level above his competence, whereupon his failings are detected and he rises no further.
Obama has shot that theory down by showing that you can rise to many levels above your competency
But you know what? The more Americans that view Obama as incompetent the better. Diminish his popularity and he becomes easier to take down. It might be easier to convince people that he will allow the country to fall to tryranny because of his stupidity rather than by design.
Actually it’s, “In a Hierarchy Every Employee Tends to Rise to His Level of Incompetence.”
I have seen it, taught about it, and personally experienced it. His survival comes from those who prop him up and hide the truth from the masses.
I’m not fan of Obama, while I am a fan of Lincoln.
I was merely pointing out Lincoln’s remarkable lack of executive experience prior to being elected. Despite being considerably older, he had little or no more executive experience than Obama. Nevertheless, he proved to be a consummately effective Chief Executive, to the point that I believe if anybody else had been president at the time secession would have worked.
This doesn’t mean I think Obama is another Lincoln. It means that our rating of people, such as Lincoln, Obama and Palin, on their “experience” is not necessarily an indication of how well they will perform once in office.
