Beldar nails Obama far better than I can. (When I try, I sound like Ferris Bueller's sister, flabbergasted that her brother has once again hoodwinked everyone.): Obama has dispelled his mystical (and entirely unproven) aura of competence with breathtaking rapidity. I began my mental planning for this post by asking myself: "Self, of all the functions which the Constitution and our modern systems of government entrust to the POTUS, which ones do you still have even a modicum of confidence that Barack Obama is capable of performing? (As compared, say, to the modest but hopeful list which you, as a pretty skeptical conservative, would have constructed for him on his Inauguration Day?)"
Yes, Obama has proved this week that he's capable of reading aloud from a teleprompter, without faltering, not only his own speech but even the speech intended for the Irish Prime Minister. And he's proved that his adoring media are still so much in the bag for him that they'll cover that up for him. But of the medium- and up-sized potatoes on every POTUS' plate, which ones do I confidently still expect Barack Obama to be competent to handle?
I'm genuinely open to more suggestions in the comments. But I could only come up with one: I'm pretty sure he won't arbitrarily and suddenly launch a nuclear strike on Russia. And that's it. That exhausts my list of things I'm confident that Barack Obama won't screw up as POTUS, and I reserve the right to revise my opinion on that.

I knew we were in for a rough ride when Obama got elected but I thought it would be kind of like the Clinton years. Not even close. This guy will make Clinton look like a good president.

Obama will learn his job in time—the real question is who is writing his speeches? Who is the puppet master behind Obama? Is this person or persons able to rule? Obama is a front man only, a prop, a sock puppet, for others who may have dark plans. Let us hope these directors at least love their country in some way or we are in deep do do. Who is this cabal? Seros? Nancy? Harry Reed?

Think about IT!
Two movies come to mind:
1) Wild in the Steets
2) On the Beach
Sometimes I find myself hoping that something gets so badly broken that he will go to the White Hut boiler room and hide in shame. I soon enough get off that kick, however. It is becoming more and more clear that nothing will ever shame him to that degree. Probably to any degree.
“the real question is who is writing his speeches? Who is the puppet master behind Obama?”
I thought it was well established that he is Soro’s boy.
