Obama couldn't handle a class of kindergartners.

The Shrinking Relevance of Barack Obama is more like it.

“...Col. Gadhafi needs to step down...” “O” lied and Libyans died. Look... if anyone expected ANYTHING different from this guy, I blame THEM and not him...and that includes all the global leaders and the makers/disseminators of 'public opinion' who railroaded this slapstick comedian into the WH. These knuckleheads salivated over "O" BEFORE he was elected and have (until NOW) never ceased in their vulgar, uncontrolled and frankly, disturbing adoration for this ‘Mr. Nobody-from-Nowhere’!!!!

Obama is pathetic as a leader. That he would dither and not be able to make a decision in a crisis was obvious from his first crisis, the seizure of the Mursek Alabama by Somali pirates. Obama dithered with hostage negotiation and missed one opportunity to end the standoff. Only when the commander in the field took the initiative were the pirates dispatched. I hope were never see a major terrorist attack on the US during Obama’s watch as he would be waiting for the UN to do something.

As a leader? When has he ever lead?

Yes, WE are also fading into irrelevancy. We* did elect this ... person, and we are allowing him to lead us off the cliff of irrelevance.

*present company excepted, of course.

As long as he has 50 million apostles, “Lord” Obama is never irrelevant.

What he meant to say was:

“Mr Qadaffi, if it wouldn’t be too much trouble (I’m not bothering you am I?) I would like to respectfully request, if you wouldn’t mind abdicating, or whatever you call it, so that things would go more smoothly for ME over here in America.

We are a rich country, I can easily plunder some of our remaining wealth and buy you candy, and TV’s, and basketball tickets. We could fly in a pizza staff from St Louis every weekend. I could teach you to play golf. It would be really cool and you could be my BFF. Come on, it’d be cool! I can tell the TV stations to say what a great guy you are and most people will believe it. If you say that you think Global Warming is a very bad thing, you’ll really catch on with the crowd that believes everything that I say.

Think about how this affects me!!

Neither could the American people; all they know to do is raise taxes.

Absolutely. To call the phrase merely “oxymoronic” would be perhaps an understatement. One can be sure that Buchanan, truly a master wordsmith, didn’t write the headline at issue.

Obama and his administration are the fulfillment of marxism's long march through the institutions. What they could not achieve by force of arms they've achieved through the ballot box after decades of cultural indoctrination from every corner.

My only concern is do they plan on completing their work in four years and if not how do they plan to remain in power until they finish the job. The administration seems oddly nonchalant about 2012.

“As a leader? When has he ever lead?”

Obama is doing exactly what his handlers are telling him. There is no other explanation for this lunacy.

The world may have wanted him, but remember that a lot of our countrymen voted for this POS. Most are regretting it now, but too little, too late.

You’re right, but I tend to look on the bright side: he’s awakened the “sleeping masses” in a way that no one could have imagined and exposed the liberals and democrats for the thugs they are. He has single handedly made liberals a laughing stock and made the race card null and void.
