Obama’s ship is sinking
nypost.com ^ | 9/14/14 | MICHAEL GOODWIN

Posted on 09/14/2014 5:04:38 AM PDT by Liz

--snip--

Obama's disjointed ISIS speech was about saving his presidency. He is sinking fast... It may already be too late to save the SS Obama......teeming w/ second term disasters....the toxic brew of his Obamacare lies, middling economic growth and violent global breakdown....

....the public has tuned him out...they no longer trust him and don’t think he’s a good leader.....a tsunami of recent polls amount to a vote of no confidence.....his plan to grant amnesty to millions of illegals was put on hold to try to protect Democratics from voter wrath in November.

He has been wrong about virtually every major issue. His worldview, his politics, his prejudices, his habits — they’ve been a mismatch for the country and its needs. He has been a dud even in the one area where he seemed a lock to make things better, racial relations.

The lasting image will be his yukking it up on the golf course minutes after giving a perfunctory speech on the beheading of James Foley. It revealed him as hollow, both to America and the world, and there is no way to un-see the emptiness.

Of course, there is a possibility that America could rally around in a crisis. But a national consensus requires a president who is able to tap into a reservoir of good will and have his leadership trusted. That’s not the president we have.

The no inflation LIE can only go so far until everyone's broke paying for food and fuel.

And the increased cost of Obamacare-driven health insurance...

Obama can’t sink fast enough, IMO.

I'll believe it when I see it.

I'm not sure whom I'll be voting for this fall.

There are so many ripe, low hanging fruit from which to pick...yet the GOPe refuses to reap the harvest.

That's why we have Ted Cruz.

Rush, Sean, Glenn and Mark better line up behind him soon, or they're going to bear a lot of responsibility for sticking us with Jeb or Mitt.

“Poll taxes sound like a better idea each day.”

I would rather they had IQ tests before one could register to vote. 100+ or no vote. We can’t afford to have the below average determining the nation’s future.

What is unbelievable is that it has taken 6 years for folks to see this clown is a phony. Better late than never.

Considering that he was reelected, late is no better than never.

The no inflation LIE can only go so far until everyone's broke paying for food and fuel.No kidding. The cost of groceries is out of control.

We need to kill the ethanol subsidies and get farmers back to growing corn for food.

Took six years of incompetence, ignorance, gutlessness, and outright stupidity for the stupid of this country to figure out that the jug-eared Marxist is an ass clown.

We have a surplus of corn. The price has plummeted. The is not enough storage space. The rail cars are hard to come by. Our local power plant had to pull strings, beg and jump through hoops to get rail cars for coal for the winter. Corn will be sitting in mountainous piles everywhere after harvest. we will be drowning in corn.

This is feed corn. There is too much corn for a reduced beef herd. Pig and chicken diseases have lowered the stocks of those animals. Humans do not directly eat this corn.

We had Carter fatigue, Clinton fatigue, Bush (GW) fatigue. It is not surprising that we now have Obama fatigue. Wonder if/when the media will start using that phrase?

Of course, the media and party sycophants are still doing everything they can to cover for him. But even they are having a difficult time continuing the defenses with straight faces.

Whoever believed that Obama was trustworthy or a leader for one second was a fool and a rube.

We are on the same page about IQ tests, and it should certainly require basic literacy to be able to vote. I would take it much further. I was a secretary. Happened to work in the Fed Gov’t, State, and County offices during my working life. ALL required you sit a general intelligence test, and skills test prior to employment. I’d like to see all government officials be required to do the same, it would certainly improve our Congress, and Presidency to remove the dimwits!

ISIS is beheading liberal elite members of the press. If they keep that up we're within weeks of our elites deciding all cultures aren't equal after all... When the press is 'disgusted' with a Democrat President it carries more weight than a poll...

Recognizing that history repeats itself, 2014 is going to again prove that the dem’s “come yet” base is highly unlikely to vote in November. King Putt, dingy harry, nasty peelousi and the “hands up” riot are not giving the dem freeloaders any inspiration to vote, Why? Because the issues are mostly Whiteys fightin Whitelys with very little to create a heat under the dem bases. They have their “in yo face” Magic Negro Prez the crackas can’t stop.

The demonicrats who voted for this maniacal Traitorobama, but now claim to regret it should seriously consider never voting again. They should also consider leaving the country in order to reduce the number of traitors we have.
