Major Garrett: Obama 'Bordering on Panic,' 'Dangerously Close' to Losing Connection With Americans
FoxNation.com ^ | July 7 | Staff

...as it stands right now, Obama’s failing to connect and Garrett cited his so-called Twitter town hall meeting as an attempt almost in desperation to resurrect the messaging success the president in his prior election. “[I]f people aren’t listening to you on that core message, it doesn’t matter what you say anymore,” he said.

John McCain was a rotten candidate who ran his own campaign.

Other than being a career Washington politician, McCain's biggest problem was he believed the press actually liked him. He was little more than a weapon the press used against W in the primaries.

We need some stalwart jack russel media types to dog his heels. Alas, there are none.

I had to reread your comment because I knew a media type just like that, back in the day, and his name actually was Jack Russell.

He was a die-hard Democrat, but not of the kind we see today, and he didn't give a rip what letter was behind the name of a politician - if they did wrong he was all over them like white on rice. He was a true journalist who did not let his own politics get in the way of telling the truth.

That guy’s NEVER going to make Lt. Colonel, is he?

I had a great-uncle who was named Captain General Hicks.

He was drafted into the Army as a Private of course.

Needless to say, there was some confusion.

The original purpose of "the press", and a contributing force behind the first amendment.

In the end I think that the Fast and Furious thing will take him down.

There is a LOT to be said for making one’s public appearances brief and rare when one is a leader. Once a leader over-exposes themselves, they become part of the noise of everyday life... and situation of “Oh, YOU again? Jeez, will you never STFU? Why are you on my TV AGAIN?!”

When we were kids, remember how “important” it was when the POTUS would come on the TV?

You may be right. But it will have to be the press that takes him down. No body in his party will confront him and he is not going to go quietly into the night.

I firmly believe he is on some serious psychotropics and will either end up having a nervous breakdown or an overdose.

At least he didn’t end up like Major Major Major Major.

We need some stalwart jack russel type to go after reporters and ask them why are they covering for this idiot.

I agree. Some days he does not even know what year it is. I will vote for #1 & #2

Always remember, they are nothing more than the propaganda arm of the dnc. Their sole purpose in all their efforts is to elect liberal rats into office and push the lib agenda, from dog catcher to CIC.

Once that fact sinks in, everything they do falls neatly into place. No exceptions.

One of his followers on a page I can’t remember, said the vacations are good for the country because they renew obama’s strength. Scary how so many people worship him.

He's going on vacation in a few weeks so that he can rest and relax.

In the meantime, he should play a round of golf or something.

Is Major Garrett surprised, or not, to see firsthand the result of placing affirmative-action beneficiaries in positions they are utterly unqualified for?

Just like Gaddafhi is never going to pin on that star, either. (An old joke but I've always liked it)

Boy King has no idea what or who an American is...nor does he care.

Boy King does, in fact, know what an American is. We're the ones funding the corruption and thuggery that democrats label their administration. How many unemployed and/or homeless Americans could he have sustained with food and shelter for the costs involved for the "vacations" his family takes about every other week?

He knows (as do his democrat enablers) that AMERICANS are paying to the hilt for the entitlements illegal aliens now expect from citizen taxpayers. The intent of democrats for hiking our taxes to pay for Obama/democrat "favored" people has finally hit a brick wall. If Republicans cave in on the debt ceiling, it will be the worst thing they could ever do from a historic (will of the people) standpoint.

Translation: If you’re a Marxist idiot intent on destroying their country, people aren’t going to listen to you anymore.

Unless they, too, are idiots.

As long as there are still employed citizens out there, he'll never rest.
