He’s a steaming pile of every personality characteristic of someone who should NEVER have been elected to ANY public office.

Worth repeating...
Obama was running for Senate at the time, largely unopposed. Lizza sat with Obama one day while the candidate was making fundraising phone calls. As he talked to the donors, he started drawing a little sketch on the newspaper lying in front of him. Lizza reported:
I couldn’t help noticing, when we sat down to talk in the dilapidated storefront that houses his Springfield campaign headquarters, that the blue-pen drawing he’d doodled on his newspaper during fundraising calls was a portrait of himself.
This guy, Obama, is one sick mo-fo. If he can be beaten in 2012 without him fomenting a civil war, America will have dodged a cannonball.

Slick had a defining moment. It just wasn’t a global crisis where he could rise to the occasion, but Monica Lewinsky.

We need a war to get rid of the bad guys. They need a war to add to their resume.

Clinton’s legacy is a stain on a blue dress.

“Mr. Obama has told people that it would be so much easier to be the president of China,”

yeah because he is a communist dictator

As I was reading this I couldn’t help but think of a guy I used to work for. I saw the same behavior in him. Every day was his birthday and every event or function he attended was his birthday party. No matter what the occasion he believed it was all about him. Like Obama, that guy was completely ineffectual and succeeded in ruining a great organization . . . so much so that a lot of long-time and really talented people decided it was time to dedicate their talents to another cause. This experience really put the Obama presidency in perspective for me. I wonder about all these people who have been bailing on his administration. I suspect we’ll have some really good tell-all books before it’s all said and done.

Too much credit or blame is tagged to Obama. He is doing everything he is intellectually capable of. He is the coolest kid in junior high, and his buddies got him elected president of the student council. But the expectations can't be too high, because the only grade he has ever gotten in school has been an Affirmative Action A.

That is not a predictor of success.

... the medias made a god out of him, white guilt backed him and he turned out to be worse than a mortal man ~ a royal failure with no exerience and competence. He is in “way over” his head.

I can see him doing the corrupt African dictator thing - dressing up in a fake uniform with plenty of fake medals, standing over us all in a kingly posture...not wanting to ever step down as our dear leader.

"It is a great advantage to a president, and a major source of safety to the country, for him to know that he is not a great man."

"This country would not be a land of opportunity, America could not be America, if the people were shackled with government monopolies."

"Wealth comes from industry and from the hard experience of human toil. To dissipate it in waste and extravagance is disloyalty to humanity."

"When a man begins to feel that he is the only one who can lead in this republic, he is guilty of treason to the spirit of our institutions."

But we should forgive Obama his mutterings.

I forgive Hussein NOTHING. He is unforgivable.
