The wheels are off the Obama bus. It's up on the cinder blocks on some rental property in Martha's Vineyard this weekend. It is the end of the summer of discontent for a president who's clearly in over his head and whose wallowing is most unbecoming.
Mr. Obama's economic policy prescriptions, textbook Keynesian mumbo jumbo, have failed. History would have been instructive had only he been learned in the discipline. Obviously, he's not. Next month, he'll return with yet another chapter of the novella best titled "Hocus Pocus."

For it is a tragedy of our own making.

His “Jobs Plan” is now an outline. This would be hilarious if it weren’t so important.
2012 cannot come soon enough. I just hope it is not late.

As Gettysburg College history professor Allen C. Guelzo...”
I’m familiar with this guys work. It’s amazing. He’s not really a conservative, but he is a very, very distinguished historian of all things American. It’s great to see some distinguished intellectual elites turn on Obama!!!!!
(and about time, too)
53% of voters voted for him.
Granted, he’s lost some of those, but that’s a big pile of “idiot” that ain’t going nowhere soon.
G4
The damage done by this sitting moron may take a decade to heal.
Obama might bow out like LBJ. Most Rats can’t stand him any longer.He’s giving them a bad name. When Maxinw Waters is unhappy with him, it’s not good.
um ... let me ... um ... be very ... um ... clear ... I HAVE NOT COME UNDONE!
[tantrum erupts; stomps foot; screams at staff]
No. You should be worried about the mental state of the people who voted him into office.
"And it is not for him that we feel sorry, but for ourselves."
Well if those are his words, Gettysburg College history professor Allen C. Guelzo is as maudlin a self-proclaimed victim as he accuses President Obama of being.
"For it is a tragedy of our own making."
You bet it is! And it is the direct result of hubris, denial, and MONUMENTAL STUPIDITY on the part of the U.S. electorate.
Those who elected those Democrat Politicians to high public office deserve everything they have brought onto themselves and everything they get!
When was he ever "done".
He has lost a LOT of those. He will not get the indie vote in 12, he will not get any white guilt or “yippie the first black prez” vote, and many of the youngsters who dropped their bongs to vote for him, will keep on hittin instead.
Bambi is toast.
Not yet be he is getting there
Of course, this media outlet (the Tribune-Review) did not make an endorsement in the 2008 general election, and was endorsing Hillary in the primary (and McCain, no surprise there).
I'm still waiting for a propagand outlet that pushed Obama in 2008 to make a revelation like this editorial.
When he reads his speech from the teleprompter, it will be just another campaign speech. No outline, no ideas, it's all Boehner's fault.

We need a picture of Obama behind the desk in the oval office, with a plaque on his desk that says, “Don’t blame me, I just read the Teleprompter™.”
“2012 cannot come soon enough. I just hope it is not late”
I’ll second that emotion. 15 more mos of Barry working his wicked ways on the economy and we will be lucky if we are not in a complete economic collapse.
Just substitute “He” for “She”

She’s come undone
She didn’t know what she was headed for
And when I found what she was headed for
It was too late
She’s come undone
She found a mountain that was far too high
And when she found out she couldn’t fly
It was too late
It’s too late
She’s gone too far
She’s lost herself
She’s come undone
She wanted truth but all she got was lies
Came the time to realize
And it was too late
She’s come undone
She didn’t know what she was headed for
And when I found what she was headed for
Mama, it was too late
It’s too late
She’s gone too far
She’s lost herself
She’s come undone
Na, na na na na na na
Too many mountains
And not enough stairs to climb
Too many churches
And not enough truth
Too many people
And not enough eyes to see
Too many lives to lead
And not enough time
It’s too late
She’s gone too far
She’s lost herself
She’s come undone
Doh doh doh doh ....
It’s too late
She’s gone too far
She’s lost herself
She’s come undone
She didn’t know what she was headed for
And when I found what she was headed for
It was too late
She’s come undone
She found a mountain that was far too high
And when she found out she couldn’t fly
Mama, it was too late
It’s too late
She’s gone too far
She’s lost herself
She’s come undone
Doh doh doh doh doh doh doh doh
Doh doh doh
It’s too late
He’s gone too far...
