My personal opinion is 0bama is not keystone kops, but rather intentional and premeditated in his evil ways. VDH wants to give him the benefit of the doubt of better intentions but just being absent and incompetent.
0bama is also incompetent but it is always in failing at his otherwise malevolent pursuits.
VDH puts his name/face out there, unlike me (a faceless commenter on a blog), I don’t need to be as nice.
All Obama had was “I am NOT BUSH”.
It “worked” for two elections and the first few months into his presidency. Now everything blowing up in his face.
Too bad he couldn’t say it is all Bush’s fault, .... No, wait....
