“general inability to juggle more than one issue at one time”
Let’s give the man credit where it is due. He seems to have no problem juggling his golf and hoops activities even though they apparently require a sizable chunk of hours every week. If we add in WH social activities—which to all appearances have in no way been curtailed despite the growing number of matters that have reached crisis proportions—his juggling skills are even more remarkable.
I think it all comes down to priorities: his actions tell us quite clearly where his real interests lie. For all his flaws, Clinton was a policy wonk who literally couldn’t get enough of policy challenges to engage his mind while in the WH, often working into the wee hours of the morning and putting his advisors through exhausting meetings in which every nuance of a decision was explored before it was made (his addiction to working on policy matters even led him to engage in occasional multi-tasking activities with Monica Lewinsky).
I disagreed with a lot of Clinton’s policy directions, but never doubted that he really did work hard as president. Not doing his homework on an issue literally would have been inconceivable to him. In contrast, we now have a president who instinctively reaches for the Easy button whenever the going gets rough.
LOL. I stand corrected. It’s impressive when you think about it.
Hey, now. This is the guy who has taken over banking, education, healthcare, and General Motors, and is now working on oil, the media, and all energy right down to your thermostat. Every bit of infrastructure this country relies on.
He also told the Egyptian ambassador that he’s a Muslim and supports the Muslim agenda (Sharia and the destruction of Israel and the US, apparently) so I think we can credit him with screwing Israel and our military also. He’s succeeded incredibly at alienating our closest allies and he’s made sure our soldiers don’t even have coffee as they prepare to go out and get shot up without fighting back.
So hey, give him a break. He’s been working on everything he intended to work on, and accomplishing most of it as the country stands agape watching.
Obumbles reaches for the “Easy button” because he has absolutely no clue how to do otherwise. The narcissist is incompetent. Period.
