President Facetime Is Wearing Thin

Another installment from the It's Not Just Me Dept.

If ubiquity were the measure of a presidency, Barack Obama would already be grinning at us from Mount Rushmore. But of course it is not. Despite his many words and television appearances, our elegant and eloquent president remains more an emblem of change than an agent of it. He's a man with an endless, worthy to-do list—health care, climate change, bank reform, global capital regulation, AfPak, the Middle East, you name it—but, as yet, no boxes checked "done." This is a problem that style will not fix. Unless Obama learns to rely less on charm, rhetoric, and good intentions and more on picking his spots and winning in political combat, he's not going to be reelected, let alone enshrined in South Dakota.

Who knew Howard Fineman was a racist too?

Hardly a Bitter/Clinger stalwart, Fineman is noticing something he could have learned from me in August of 2008 had he paid any attention. The Barack Obama Show is a lot like Cirque du Soleil: fun and flashy but not exactly laden with substance.

[Senator John Blutarski]

John Kerry is desperately jealous.

[MNJohnnie]

NO NO NO! Seen the polls? We want Dear Reader out there 244-7-365. It even penetrating the welded shut minds of Leftist Fineman’s that 0 is destroying himself with his narcissism

“Will the real Barack Obama please stand up!”

The Barack Obama Show is a lot like Cirque du Soleil: fun and flashy but not exactly laden with substance.

No when i watch Cirque du Soleil i get the feeling that the people I'm watching really know what they are doing. Watching Obama and his team is like watching an episode of Keystone Cops. No substance, just watching a bunch of idiots throw pies.

[Zathras]

Ever worked for a manager who clearly didn't know what he was doing?
Thats how I feel about Obama (other than he's a commie).

[Verginius Rufus]

I’d rather see him enshrined in South Dakota—maybe as chairman of the political science department at one of the state colleges. His ability to harm the country would be reduced to almost zero.
