Obama: 'There’s A Sense ... The World Is Spinning So Fast and Nobody Is Able To Control It'
Weekly Standard ^

Posted on 10/07/2014 7:02:50 PM PDT by bryan999

At a DNC fundraiser today, President Barack Obama voiced a concern many Americans might now have. "There’s a sense possibly that the world is spinning so fast and nobody is able to control it," Obama told Democrats at the White Street Restaurant in New York, New York.

But Obama suggested that he has things under control.

"I was here in New York just a couple weeks ago -- you noticed the traffic was even worse then -- during the United Nations General Assembly annual gathering of world leaders. And it's appropriate to talk a little bit on the front end about why this particular General Assembly was so indicative of America’s position in the world. There are times where I think in this country we doubt ourselves, and there are times when we're uncertain of all the changes that are taking place all across the globe. And understandably, when you see the headlines every single day and you read about ISIS and Ebola and the Russian incursions into Ukraine, there’s a sense possibly that the world is spinning so fast and nobody is able to control it."

“Obama: ‘There’s A Sense ... The World Is Spinning So Fast and Nobody Is Able To Control It’”

That sounds like the statement of someone that is in WAAAAYYYY over his head, and is feeling overwhelmed.

Maybe it's the Founding Fathers and all those Patriots who gave their lives since for the country spinning in their graves....

...so affecting gravity...causing the world to spin out of control

Or the willingness to influence it. I think we’ve just had our malaise moment.

I have a suggestion for you nobama: if you can't control it, maybe it's time to resign.

The nearby tree would have made a better President.

A nearby tree would be a better place for this occupier of the White house.

Ummmmm, I meant he’s more suited to playing in a tree house than the White House...

So kind of him to tell us, in case we didn’t notice. “Now give me your money, chuckleheads.”

And the Asshats at the World Health Organization are talking about reducing tobacco consumption and a global tax on tobacco.

Now who can argue with that? I think we're all indebted to Barack Obola for clearly stating what needed to be said. I'm particulary glad that these lovely Democrats were here at the White Street Restaurant today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic Community Organizer gibberish, it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age.
