Captain Obvious Learns the Limits of Cool (Dowd Spanks Obama, Again.)
NYTimes ^ | Published: January 9, 2010 | Maureen Dowd

Posted on 01/10/2010 5:32:26 AM PST by TexasCajun

Our president came down from the mountaintop.

He had applied the freshness of his independent thought to the critical matters at hand. He had convened his seminar, reviewed the reviews, analyzed the intelligence every which way, thought anew about everything, and lo and behold, he finally emerged to tell us some stuff we already knew.

“Our professorial president is no feckless W., biking through Katrina. He is no doubt on top of the crisis in terms of studying it top to bottom. But his inner certainly creates an outer disconnect.”

Barry is no feckless W... W had his warts. No, W was an American. Obama is a Radical Muslim trending towards Marxism throughout his life.

Thanks, Dowd???? I don't think so!

The media is sinking, and MODO is not immune. This new found clarity could be more for economics than ideology.

I’m hoping for a Brutus.
Someone like Nixon’s Dean.

There is no justice in the world as long as MoDo gets paid to write her columns. Any leftie with a foul humor and a BA in English Lit (of which there must be millions) could crank out the same stuff on a whim.

Unlike the Republicans, who have yet to take responsibility for a single disastrous thing they did, President Obama said “ultimately the buck stops with me.”

Uh no, Maureen, you fickle and lying sack of filth. Republicans did nothing wrong.

“He had applied the freshness of his independent thought”
-M. Dowd

Independent from what? Clearly joined at the hip with Karl Marx.

I think the center left media is realizing they’ve been duped.The hard left media will back this administration regardless. This book Game Change which comes out tomorrow is going to fun to watch how the media handles it.

Where the hell does the media get off describing Obama’s Marxist views as some kind of new and fresh independent thought process. Did world history begin in the 60’s when most of these so-called journalists were coming of age?

I think I know the PERFECT job for Barack Obama!

Actually, his first name almost became more common to the American people in the 1970's, but audience research indicated that "Venus Flytrap" was more accepted than "Barack Flytrap".

There’s no one more P.O.’d and bitter than a scorned, white, round-heeled, female liberal.
Especially when the scorner is a smooth talking dude of color.

Every time I see those pictures, it sickens me that this is what we have as president.

She will feed the info but let someone else spill to the media so she won’t look like a backstabber.If,of course ,the State Run Media would actually report anything against Dear Leader...

I would not call him “Captain Obvious.” More like Private Obvious. He spent the first 9 months of his Presidency in willful disregard of the obvious.

Um, how about Captain Oblivious?

Like losing the presidency to Obama?

Don't worry MoDo...we will never forget.
