Welcome back, Mr. President; Here's your worst job approval ever

For consuming a week of presidential time and Lord knows how many millions of borrowed dollars, Barack Obama's admirable Asian adventure was not terribly productive.

The much-anticipated trade agreement with Japan fell through, as trade talks with Japan are wont to do for decades now. Obama did sign a new base agreement with the Philippines.

But on the home-front John Kerry pulled one of his own "bitter clinger" moments, saying revealing things he shouldn't about Israel on the incorrect belief no one in the room was recording his words. "Israel" and "apartheid" in the same sentence strike some as resignation-worthy.

The first lecture for any freshman public figure is: "Nothing is ever private or off the record. Period." But John was probably wind-surfing the morning of that class.

Not that Obama cares about polls you understand, but there are also some really discouraging new numbers for him out this morning. More on that shortly....

his freebees are pretty much being given away on borrowed trillions!

Kerry, or anybody else in this administration along with ever democrat politician, could say “All Israilis are descendents of monkeys” and would not have to resign. They can all do anything they want.

Being a Democrat means never having to say you’re sorry.

Baraq is on cruise control (and on vacation and on the golf course) until Jan 2017 LOL.

Just an aside to the Japan trip. In real administrations the negotiations are worked out well in advance and the leaders get together for a photo op and a signing. With a KENNEDY at the helm in Tokyo and a KERRY at the throttle in DC there is no wonder that the agreement was not made. Incompetence and Ignorance rule. Damn reality in the world we have a equal opportunity community organizer at the helm...full speed ahead.

It seemed so much easier to run the country when he was sitting in his junior senator chair.

When he first announced for president I said that he was typical of most apprentices. To the untrained eye, everything is so simple.

See my tagline.

But the striking thing about Sterling's comments and Paula Deen's and Cliven Bundy's really is that they all came from, shall we say, seniors...some, like Krauthammer, feel racism has become a "generational" issue, and that younger people no longer experience such sentiments - I think the youngers have just learned to keep their mouths shut to avoid the punishment of being labeled "racist" and hounded by the self-righteous and morally-superior.....

[Jack Hammer]

At this point in the nation’s history, there are only two groups of Americans any longer: 1.) Those who understand that Obama is by far the worst president in the entire history of the United States; and, 2.) Certified imbeciles.

He couldn’t care less what his numbers are....he’s got a certain amount of time left to continue pushing through his destructive agenda, and vacation. He (and his Mrs.) are going to suck whatever they can out of their time left. I’ll bet Michelle travels more in the next two years than most do in their lives.
