The spell The One weaved around people has been broken. Obama is in danger of becoming the Rodney Dangerfield of American Presidents.

Hey, if he fails to do any of the things the Nobel prize committee expected of him when they gave him the award, does he have to return it?

Nope. Its an affirmative action award. But we knew that when they announced it back in September.

I don’t think I have ever seen anyone piss off all sides like Barry seems to on every issue.

He has the opposite of the Midas touch...

To think that a year ago, millions adored him and people thought he could shake things up in Washington. Then they discovered they didn't want that hopenchange. History is bypassing Obama.

It must be a real bummer when the Chinese force you to grovel at their feet.

When is Obama going to learn............

“”””Update: Obama did manage to offend China. From the U.K.’s Times:

China took huge offence at remarks by President Obama

remarks the Chinese interpreted as an attempt to humiliate them, prompting Prime Minister Wen Jiabao to return to his hotel.

President Obama will now hold a second round of talks with Mr Wen in an attempt to patch up the disagreement.””””

Has there ever been a more pathetic person in the position than the Kenyan Klod? Get ready folks, he doesn't deal with rejection and he'll throw a tantrum by creating a “crisis” to punish his detractors and validate yet more of his catastrophic rhetoric

He was going to make our enemies our friends. But in making our enemies out friends, he made our friends our enemies. So now he going to our new friends, who used to be our enemies, and making them our enemies.

When he’s done, everyone will be our enemies. Well done!
