OBAMA TO KROFT: 'I DIDN'T OVERPROMISE'
The Drudge Report ^ | 9 Dec 11 | Kroft

Posted on 12/10/2011 3:10:56 AM PST by Evergolightly

STEVE KROFT: Did you overpromise? Did you underestimate how difficult this was going to be?

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: I didn't overpromise. And I didn’t-- underestimate how tough this was going to be. I always believed that this was a long-term project…And-- you know, for individual Americans, who are struggling right now, they have every reason to be impatient. Reversing structural problems in our economy that have been building up for two decades, that was going to take time. It was going to take more than a year. It was going to take more than two years. It was going to take more than one term. Probably takes more than one president.

This lying POS as usual gets the soft massage from the leftist media. They want to reelect their sock puppet so they can believe they are running the country.

The only telling thing in the article is Obie says he thought he would take longer to destroy America than four years, he is right, the communists and leftists have been working toward our destruction since FDR and his minions.

GOD help us if we the people do not wake up and send this POS packing and begin ridding our political, educational, media and enetrtainment of the leftist scum and deviates that populate and indoctrinate our people.

Is it too late?

Get rid of the EPA and you've gotten rid of half of our problems. Get rid of Islam and you've gotten rid of half of the world's problems.

Reinstate morality and half the problems are solved. No more abortion. No more pandering to gays and whatevers.

Stop bullying us!!

I am afraid Americans do not have that resolve anymore. The current crop of leaders we are running leave me very uneasy that we can recover from the cancer of the hybrid democratic socialist communism that essentailly runs our country now.

Probably, commies always win elections, because they have no qualms about breaking the law. Of course, we always have Eric Holder to police the voting process. America’s media is a watchdog for fair elections, right?

It appears to me America needs a new Revolution to rid itself of the terrible cancer that has enveloped this nation.

“Stop bullying us!!”

You’ve got that right! The problem isn’t that most Americans are communists, it’s that they don’t realize how long the commies have been indoctrinating our students, and the mass media readers and TV watchers. Kruschev said years ago: “We will bury you and we’ll do it from inside.”

Now they want our guns, and they want to take over the internet.

Talk to your kids about what they’re learning, talk to your co-workers. Talk to your friends and neighbors, and warn them.

The man is the most ungracious president in our history. He has contributed to the structural problems as a CA, legislator, and president. He has added to the time and pain required to restore the economy.

He's overseen the passage of one piece of highly visible legislation during the past 3 years - Obamacare. I'm sure he thinks of this is some great accomplishment, but in reality it was a disaster - and clearly has contributed significantly to the climate of uncertainty that has held our economy in check and hurt many people. Further, this never would have gone anywhere if he hadn't been handed significant majorities in both the House and Senate - by the feckless campaigning of the Republicans during that election cycle, combined with the political activism of the media.

“Is it too late?”
You never know. With zero having a billion dollar war chest and most people really not paying attention to the election until the last month, it’s a possibility. IMO

Sixty Minutes is part of the Obama campaign...along with the rest of the alaphet letter nets they see their job as getting this anti-american reelected.

They are terrified of Gingrich...wait and see.

"It was going to take more than a year. It was going to take more than two years. It was going to take more than one term."

Seems I remember Zero saying that if he hadn't turned around the economy in 2 years that he would be a one-term president.

Does anyone know the exact quote?

FLASHBACK: Obama: My Presidency Will Be ‘A One-Term Proposition’ If Economy Doesn’t Turn

President Barack Obama said in February 2009 that his presidency would be “one-term proposition” if the economy did not recover in three years, giving him less than six months from today.

Obama ... blowing epistemological bong smoke, as he does every time he opens his mouth.

I agree but sadly, I fear, we are in the minority.

Actual Obama Quotes:

"We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek."

"I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal"

"If you love me, you got to help me pass this bill."

"At this particular moment, with the private sector so weakened by this recession, I am the only entity left with the resources to jolt our economy back into life."

"Today we begin in earnest the work of making sure that the world we leave our children is just a little bit better than the one we inhabit today."

"Look, when I was a kid, I inhaled frequently. That was the point."

"It's been a great ride. But I know how quickly these fads can pass. You all remember the pet rock, the mood ring, Howard Dean."

Where's your messiah, now?
