... Obama is the smart, well-behaved lad in the global high school that punks love to pick on. As president, hes tried for six years to be a rational-minded conciliator. He wants his opponents, both foreign and domestic, to simmer down, dispense with threats and do the logical thing. Apparently -- from the bully who brazenly stole Crimea to the wild bunch who shut down the federal government -- everyone but him thinks thats a lame idea.
Its doubtful anyone worries about Obama doing anything crazy. Contrary to what Nixon believed, sanity should be a good thing, right? Maybe, but is Obamas caution also why the Russians and, perhaps, the Chinese, have no compunction about defying him?
Its a tough, crazy world out there and, though we wish humanity would grow up a little, it still seems as if we are stuck playing the foolish games of high school on a global scale.

Ah, David Horsey, a guy too liberal for the Seattle Times so he scooted to LA for fame and the big bucks. If they ever have to do an autopsy on 0bama they'll find Horsey's lip marks on his butt.

Another “America has failed Obama” article. What a cult.

Its doubtful anyone worries about Obama doing anything crazy. David Horsey: the deaf, dumb and blind columnist.

Obama was the kid who always screwed things up but managed to pin the blame on someone else.

That’s a lot of words to try to make being a wimp that nobody respects a positive trait.

It is not his sanity which concerns me.
Rather, the depth of his evil.
