obama is cracking

One thing to be concerned about is that he finally breaks in a very spectacular way...his own power base and in particular his professional staff and the leftist bureaucracy is not inclined to protect the nation at the cost of their leader. They back the leader and stick with him in order to maintain some possibility of retaining power.

We thought that the rise of Obama was an unmitigated, monumental, disaster.

His fall, as necessary as it is, could be even worse.

How about “The GOP has no new ideas?” (Obama thinks spending, borrowing, bribing, etc. re “new ideas.”)

LOL!!! Not only does he have too many but the choices are so syrup-y. Do we really need to see his wedding photos when he’s giving a serious speech?

I missed the speech and commentary tonight. That’s a really scary pic. OMG, what cold, cold eyes. The narcissist is out and in full face mode. Obama is in for a melt-down. It will be worst after the November elections. There is no doubt in my mind about this.

Obama knew a full-on frontal photo would be scary, which is probably why he usually speaks in that odd side to side manner instead of looking directly into the camera.

I remember the old story about his grandmother "Toot" telling him to smile a lot. His eyes are too intense—too revealing about what's in his dark, dark soul.

Looks like he lost some pounds fasting.

He also looks like he's aged about 10 years - look at the creases around his mouth - there's pics here of him - he looks very old and tired - I guess all that vacationing, good food and golfing takes its toll!

I’m watching the re-run on Fox and his voice sounds as if he was screaming at the top of his lungs earlier in the day.

Good observation. Something was different last night.

We shall have our elections in November or that rebellion that’s brewing, which Jim has been talking about will boil over.

I am in agreement on this...there is so much at stake in Novemeber, much weighs in the balance. I pray we will see A full victory for Rep.s and all the hope lost will be restored and renewed to move this ship forward again.

It looks like they have installed new windows in the Oval Office. See how the mullion comes across much lower on the US flag on Obama that it does on Bush?

My heart and soul go out to those American families who have lost loved ones in the foriegn theater of war in Iraq and Afghanistan. It is one thing to lose a loved in total defense of your country and loved ones. It is a horrific loss when a loved one is lost because the military is ordered to fight with one hand tied behind its back!!! it also burns me up inside that the POS POTUS Obama is vacationing, dining like a king and golfing non-stop while our troops are in harms way and are prevented by him from fighting with all they have. And....the Queen, Michelle Obama living on the high hog in Spain burns me up, no end!!! How in Gods name could the American voter ever choose these elitist representative of the Devill himself? They must really hate America and American to their very being and core!!!
