Krauthammer: Obama Acts Like He Wandered Into White House on a Tour and Discovered He Was President

Syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer had some harsh words for Barack Obama Friday.

Appearing on Fox News’s Special Report, Krauthammer said, “It's as if this guy discovers everything late, as if he wandered into the White House on a White House tour and discovered himself in the Oval Office as president.”

BRET BAIER, HOST: What about this whole thing that his take, Charles, that government is not good at certain things, and we're looking to consolidate some agencies, and yet his administration, when describing the success that they're having now, says that the website is operating at private sector velocity?

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: And this is after he's argued for basically half a decade now in office that government is the font of American enterprise and success. If you built it, it’s not you, it’s the government.

It's just amazing how he right now in the middle, in the beginning, well, in the middle of his second term, he says there's a real problem here with the big agencies, some of which are outdated and not designed properly. So he discovers this three years after he decided to pass a bill that would consign a sixth of the U.S. economy – the entire ecosystem of American medicine - into the hands of precisely an outdated and improperly designed bureaucracy, i.e. HHS.

It's interesting how he discovers everything late. A month ago in that press conference he held where he apologized, sort of semi-apologized, he said he hadn't quite realized how hard it is to purchase health insurance. And this is, of course, after, three years after he nationalizes the purchase of health insurance.

And this reminds me of the time when after, remember he said that he discovered no-shovel ready jobs? But he discovers that after he passes a trillion dollar spending bill on the argument that there are all these shovel-ready jobs that will stimulate a depressed economy.

It's as if this guy discovers everything late, as if he wandered into the White House on a White House tour and discovered himself in the Oval Office as president.

Props to Krauty, on this one.

[SkyDancer]

I would love to meet Krauthammer.

[Duckdog]

Charles is great!

[Slyfox]

Krauthammer is a trained psychiatrist. It would be interesting to get his take on Obama’s psychopathy.

[Vendome]

No one could blame him for all his odd and strangely unAmerican press conferences as a”Pwesident Ewect”.

What an insufferable boob with a marginally nebish personality .

[Vendome]

He found out he was president the same we all did.

He was hangover and upon reading the newspaper exclaimed same”W in TF?!”

...Like a Forest Gump without the smarts.

Obama is dumber than donuts.

[jmacusa]

Obama is Walter Mitty.

[gaijin]

He is spot on, but the lesson here is that a Harvard MD in psychiatry gets his ideas from a Missouri high school graduate who had to be driven to the nearest college for A YEAR cuz he hated academics soooo much.

Charles is just clinicizing an observation that Rush makes about twice every day.

[EEGator]

I’m President Obama?

Damn it! Who put the question mark on the teleprompter?

[Ezekiel]

...Like a Forest Gump without the smarts.

Or Chauncey Gardiner with a black thumb.

LOL

Now if we could just slip a resignation speech onto the prompter.

[Stentor]

It’s a cargo cult mentality. He’s never been close enough to hard work and actual enterprise to disabuse himself of the notion that white folks steal the finished products of the gods off a recently landed C-47.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

This will not end well. I can’t see Obama becoming an elder statesman. When it happens—it will be quick—that’s all I know—the how is still up in the air—but Happen it will. He will not finish his term in office.

WHERE DID THE OBAMACARE WEBSITE DOUGH GO????? Hannity recently had two PROFESSIONAL web site developers on his TV show. He asked them both how much they might have charged to construct a secure web site that functioned as necessary from the git go: Their TOP figure was around $10 million!!

That's much more than one well respected US IT firm offered to do the project for: THEY'D HAVE DONE IT FOR FREE!!

Compare those to the estimated $1 BILLION this SOB has shuttled to his cronies for this turkey and I think even the most devoted obozo worshiper can grasp the magnitude of the CORRUPTION in this on-going CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE!!! (Well that's almost certainly an overstatement...)

WHERE THE HELL IS CONGRESS IN ALL OF THIS?

ANSWER: On their computers checking their numbered Swiss accounts to be certain the proper amount was deposited!!!!

IF THIS DOESN'T P.I.S.S. Y.O.U. O.F.F. you aren't paying attention and you're certainly too stupid to vote.

We need an angry electoral tsunami to sweep the parasites on the Potomac OUT of Malfunction Junction in the next cycles!! Anything short of that and we're TOAST!!

Obama Acts Like He Wandered Into White House on a Tour and Discovered He Was President...great line.....

[Taxman]

We, every one of us, should be hoping, praying and WORKING to ensure that Ophonybama and his LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascist minions come to a bad end!

If we all do just a little bit more and work just a little harder, we can end this nightmare!

[EEGator]

He'd be all washed up.
