Our timid president

It isn't exactly like dancing on Neda's grave, but it's close enough to make decent people uncomfortable...At a news conference Tuesday, President Barack Obama condemned the "threats, beatings and imprisonments of the last few days," but stopped short of criticizing the stolen election...

[skimbell]

"Comedian Greg Gutfield described Mr. Obama as "the bystander-in-chief."

The press is starting to turn on The One.

If he loses their "cover" he's going to look to all the world like the buffoon that we know him to be.

[Glenn]

This is an unusual side for the heavily Democrat leaning PPG to take.

Hell may freeze over today.

[SolidWood]

Hussein Obambi has tied his entire foreign policy to the premise that he is going to negotiate with the islamic regime holding Iran hostage.

The narcissist cannot rebuke nutjob without losing face.

Beside that he is himself a petty authoritarian who is taking notes from the thugocracy in Iran on how to stomp out uppity freedom-seekers.

[csmusaret]

Good post bump.

[Vaquero]

this is wrong.

Obama is NOT TIMID.

he just happens to Back, Amedinijad, Kim Jong Il, Hugo Chaves, the brothers Castro, China, any 2 bit African dictator you can name.

He may be a Marxist @$$hole but it is not his timidity that is causing him to not condemn evil....because he approves the evil in the world.

The pundits who condemn him are still looking at Zer0bama through free society beer goggles but Zer0bama doesn't even pretend to be the president of a free nation, but ruler and dictator.

I agree, I think the real story is that the election returns in Iran turned out the way he wanted.

[sport]

He is not timid.He is working overtime on destroying every institution in the United States and is being quite successful at it also.

In less that six months he has done more to destroy the United States than all the enemies in its history. How can you call that timid?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

The correct word is chicken-sh*t president.

[Texas Fossil]

He will not criticize for stealing elections, because he plans to do exactly what they did here again in the future.

[hershey]

Great post.

[Plumres]

I live in Pittsburgh and it is very rare for me to agree on anything in the PPG. I have to say that this is the way Obama said he would govern on foreign policy. On other domestic items Obama told the truth once during the campaign. It was to Joe the Plummer!

[PLD]

Obama is not timid,he is just to busy with the destruction of the USA..making us the same way as the Iranians,helpless and without any hope when he is finished..Only thing is we have guns the Iranians do not..So it is taking him a little longer to figure out how to disarm the American people..

[Gritty]

The Narcissist-In-Chief is not timid. He is cunning. He plans to steal our elections the same ways the Mullahs steal theirs.

So, why should he condemn that which he himself is plotting to do? He admires their skill and success!

[The Sons of Liberty]

Correction: "Our Your timid president

- NEVER Mine!

[Oldpuppymax]

“Timid president...” Are you not paying attention? This thug is confiscating trillions from taxpayers, trampling on the Constitution and instituting fascism in the US and you think he’s timid? He does what is best for Hussein. Period. And, of course, his big money donors.

[PhiKapMom]

I was just going to ask if this wasn’t a heavy Democrat paper.

WOW! Maybe some of the people that are talking about the media starting to turn are correct. I would expect this out of a Middle America paper not one from Pittsburg.

[Condor51]

The meaning here of 'timid' is how the Kenyan pretender-in-chief has responded to World threats, like the current situation in Iran. Not what he's doing domestically in destroying the USA.

1. Obama stopped short of criticizing the stolen election
   
2. The Kenyan's limited criticism took a week after the leaders of Canada, France and Germany issued stronger ones.
   
3. Obama's invitation to Iranian diplomats for Fourth of July parties was still open.
   
4. Negotiating with brutal regimes is one thing, to socialize with butchers while they're killing their own people is obscene
   
5. protesters in Iran think Mr. Obama's equivocation is a tacit endorsement of the regime.
6. "The people of Iran will not forgive Barack Obama for siding with the evil regime,"
7. The Kenyan knows he's been a day late and a dollar short on the Iranian crisis and is defensive about it.

Plus, Barry's got a bigger problem on his hands now. Michelle has apparently found the key to the White House liquor cabinet.

• Michelle Obama, cracking under the pressure
  
• First Lady is drinking way more than she should
  
• MICHELLE OBAMA BOOZE BINGES

So its no wonder why Grandma has always taken care of the girls. It seems Mommy has a little drinking problem.

[freekitty]

The real description is coward.

[DennisR]

Obama is a gutless, waffling, weak girlie man.
