The duties of office are somewhat of an annoying interference to the fun and frivolity afforded him in his position of power and in which he is constantly engaged. He loves the trappings of power and conspicuous consumption. Elitist delusions of grandeur keep him believing that this attitude is somehow OK. "The little people will just have to understand and excuse my dereliction of duty, because I'm Important!" Some humility. Even if he were to wake up and realize that his attitudes don't actually fly with the unwashed masses, at the root of it all, he just doesn't have the ability to stand up and face the mess he's in and the problems we're facing. Apparently, being President is not all about giving soaring Teleprompter speeches with affected MLK cadence to masses of adoring fans.

Who could have thought this was a good idea?<br />Perhaps Mrs. Clinton suggested this.......it would certainly be a fabulously wicked thing to do.Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05756137413824366993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-50945525143592242982010-12-11T23:42:36.587-05:002010-12-11T23:42:36.587-05:00When the going gets tough, Obama gets going to ano...When the going gets tough, Obama gets going to another champagne and caviar party.<br /><br />This press conference was an embarrassment of leadership, but Obama/Axelrod view it as humility. But it's a symptom, not a cause of Obama's problems.<br /><br />Obama suffered a tremendous defeat in November; his agenda is over. He broke his promise to "reach across the aisle," and this compromise was his LAST chance to do so. The morning after his posh New Year's party, Obama will be facing a Republican House and a decidedly more conservative Senate. He HAD to establish a rapport going into the new Congress. It's the only way he'll keep his job.<br /><br />Bringing in Clinton to soothe his angry base and herd the Demon Rats into submission was absolutely necessary. If the move succeeds, he gains a small victory. If it fails, his image can't be hurt any worse.<br /><br />It just goes to show that we elected the most inexperienced, callow, self-effacing, and feckless president in our history.Hot Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10848778804406692799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-65130126665008148442010-12-11T23:14:04.287-05:002010-12-11T23:14:04.287-05:00And for the first time in almost 2 years, there wa...And for the first time in almost 2 years, there was someone with actual leadership experience in the White House.<br /><br />I'm no Clinton fan, but at least he doesn't suffer from intractable craniorectal inversion like BHO. His head is so stuck, even the Jaws of Life couldn't extricate it.Angie Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02342713829455027103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-77738540559264256042010-12-11T17:06:39.269-05:002010-12-11T17:06:39.269-05:00It never ceases to amaze me how long these Democra...It never ceases to amaze me how long these Democratic Party ex-presidents [or wife of ex-prez] are determined to cling on to power. They seem to just obsessed with influencing the public even after their terms had been served. <br /><br />Shall I say, Jimmy Carter, the Clintons, and I suspect, if it all goes well, one-termer Obamas [him and wife]. They keep on writing books of narrowing interest and one-sided opinions, and give endless campaign speeches years after their prime.<br /><br />Mr Bill Clinton [and Mr Carter], please, just retire and leave us alone, we would love to move on.<br /><br />2nd Anony.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-6363421788942630532010-12-11T13:59:14.681-05:002010-12-11T13:59:14.681-05:00MY GOD!!!
