Their Clintonian Attorney General seems to be floating above it all.

God help us.

Another incompetent panics:

Chuck Hagel Goes Full Fearmonger: "ISIS Poses Greater Threat Than 9/11, Prepare For Everything"

Meanwhile, Hillary tries to distance herself from this incompetent, criminal regime.

Obama is a TelePrompter reader only, no leader, no brain, no passion except for vacations and the good life his reading skills have afforded.

Obama is not capable of rising to the occasion

Obama sinks to the occasion! Every time.

A couple of days ago I had the news on TV in another room, so I was only hearing the sound. One of the Administrations spokesperson ditzes was on. I was struck by how uncertain and defensive that person sounded, and how the press, while not aggressive, was asking questions that caused them to respond nervously.

I was also thinking about how it seems that every Presidential Press Secretary — Earnest, Carney, and starting with Gibbs— seems worse than the last.

Bizarre as this may seem, I actually have to come to Obama's defense here.

Let's be honest about this. Barack Obama was never supposed to be a real president in any sense involving leadership or executive capacity. His only purpose was to read idiotic nonsense off a teleprompter and sign any legislation that Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid sent to his desk. Even the defining legislation of his presidency -- "Obamacare" -- should more appropriately be called "Pelosicare" because it was drafted by staffers and lobbyists affiliated with Democrats in Congress.

This is why Obama's presidency effectively ended after the 2010 election. Without a Democratic Congress to tell him what to do, he's resorted to doing what he does best when confronted with a situation that requires leadership, competence, or even a shred of intelligent thought: NOTHING.

The Marxist has always been JV. Lazy, loves fun, hates work. Yet arrogant. I’m guessing every teacher/professor who had him in their class knows this well, but were paid off not to state it publicly.

But why Obama doesn’t court Democratic pols who could help him, have them over for a movie or up to Camp David, remains a mystery.

Could it be, does not want to interfere with a drugged high or a "liaison" interlude.

Part of me wonders if Obozo’s antics are part of the plan to pitch Hillary in 2016.

The left can’t push its full agenda through a candidate who’s up for election or when a major election is around the corner. After the mid-terms pass, Barry will be free to go town and decree everything that the liberals have wanted to do. He can be their lightning rod so that the liberals in Congress can save face.

In 2016, the left disposes of him like a dirty diaper and Hillary emerges as an “alternative” - who will coincidentally be against repealing anything that Barry has done, but that’s how the media will spin her candidacy. You can already see this playing out in spats over foreign policy.

The ignorant American public, too stupefied to tell that Hillary is simply a continuation of Obozo, vote her in for office, and we get another 4 years of socialism.

Let’s be realistic: you can’t even count on the Republicans to provide token opposition these days. Glenn Beck is showering the illegal invaders with gifts; Willard Romney the open socialist and Paul Ryan are off promoting an amnesty book. Boner and the gobbler (McConnell) are wringing their hands.

I could almost understand the Democrats having to manufacture their own opposition.

If Democrats and the press are souring on Nobama, they’re hiding it very, very well.

It appears to me that to those in his party and especially to the press, Nobama has a perpetual “Get Out of Jail Free” card which allows him to waltz through scandals, errors, and incompetency unscathed.
