“He has to find some way between now and November of demonstrating that he is a leader who can command confidence and, short of a 9/11 event or an Oklahoma City bombing, I can’t think of how he could do that.”

Please don't give The Punk any ideas.

He got through school cleverly reflecting their opinions, having no value base of his own.

He does have a value base, a result of the indoctrination by avowed communist Frank Marshall Davis during most of 0bama's impressible teenage years. The conflicting problem for 0bama is that this is what he believes while he knows that to put it over on the American public requires major deception and manipulation a la Alinsky, in which he is trained but simply not very skilled. Part of the counterweight so far is our awareness of the methodology and his minions' inability to wage a long-term stealth campaign, both thanks to the Internet.

Robert Gibbs doesn’t say anything that hasn’t been rehearsed. He knows the questions in advance. The only exception is when he calls on Fox news. Unless some of the liberal reporters are conning him.

Maybe he can steer, but can he reach the pedals?

At BEST Obama is a Euro Socialist, at worst he is a Communist.

He’s not a phuking leader, he’s a community agitator who happens to be a communist.

An attack event would expose this fraud like nothing else would I imagine. Just try and picture how this guy would have handled 9 11 and your worst nightmares would come to life.

He would go into hiding while a legion of federal agencies inposed martial law. That is all.

That 40% is overwhelmingly on the government teat and in our pockets. They will remain there until we tear off their lips and snap off their fingers.

“Obama ever had any credibility?”

But now, he’s infecting the country like a a really bad strain of MRSA.

>>Why do people act like it is so shocking Obama is a socialist (actually I think he is a liberal fascist, but that is another conversation)

Those shades are pretty close to each other on the Pantone sheet.

For more on that, see the 3rd quote on my FR profile page, the two-paragraph one by Hayek.
