Our political differences have grown so profound, and become so nasty, that we've lost sight of the one thing that matters more than policy: competence. Even the wisest, most carefully conceived policy will end in failure if the officials who execute it have no idea what they're doing.
To point out the obvious, President Obama and his team are utterly, completely incompetent when it comes to executing national policy. The catastrophic launch of Obamacare is only the latest example. Whatever that gun-running operation to Mexico called Fast-and-Furious was really about, it's clear the administration made a mess of it. The president and his national security team failed to protect our consulate in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. And when the attack came they failed miserably, and fatally, to rescue our Ambassador and his three colleagues.
I'm not asserting that the president and his team are totally incompetent. They do a better job of getting their base out to vote than any group of politicos have ever done before in our country's history. Their efforts to trash their political opponents are unfair and often vicious but -- alas -- they are astoundingly successful. Their talents for deflecting blame and stonewalling investigations of their criminal mid-deeds are extraordinary.
It's just that they have no idea how to run a government -- which is what they were elected to do.
Author's note to those readers who are already jumping out of their chairs and starting to type comments-to-the-editor suggesting, not very politely, that Herb Meyer is so stupid he doesn't even realize that...

Yes, I know it's a mistake to underestimate one's enemies. But it's an even bigger mistake to overestimate your enemies and give them more credit than they're due. And this bigger mistake happens in politics all the time...

I disagree. I thank God daily that Obanma is so massively incompetent. The only thing worse than an incompetent communist, like Obama and Pelosi, would be a capable one.
Agreed. This is the only silver lining to this dark cloud.
However when that policy would destroy American exceptionalism, and all things good about America, well, then, Obama an company are much more competent.
If the goal was the financial ruin of the US and subjugating its people to a tsunami of crippling new taxes, regulations, and onerous demands befitting of an emerging fascist state, then I’d call zero and his team top-notch professionals.
Competence is racism.
Obmommy mode = OFF.
The most important part of competence is knowing what to not even try to do.
“The key to having the golden touch, is to be careful what you touch.”
Obastard is not incompetent. He is VERY competent at wrecking the US economy and military. That is his goal!
Whaddaya want, competence or collectivism? Ya can’t have both. Choose one.
