A Working President?
The American Thinker ^ | March 20, 2009 | D.L. Hammack

Posted on 03/20/2009 6:16:44 PM PDT by Scanian

Yesterday, with teleprompter at the ready, our illustrious leader spoke (I should say read) a special message to the people of Iran, espousing his understanding of their culture and promising a renewed compassion by the American people. While the basis of the message was similar to the stance by the Bush administration, perhaps it was the delivery of the same that appeared to make him (not us) look so very weak.

In light of his visible participation in many leisure activities, one can only imagine how seriously Iran -- or any other foreign nation takes us. I can picture snickers from abroad as our President parades from a quick message to the Iranian people -- to the Shamrock Day party -- to the Final Four bracket picking session -- to an appearance on the Tonight Show. Perhaps tomorrow he can squeeze a moment between bowling and riding around on Air Force One-to actually attempt to fill one of the 17 vacant positions in the Treasury Department?

Nobody said it was going to be easy. Instead of coddling "man made disasters" (as so eloquently put by our new Secretary of Homeland Security), the President needs to roll up his sleeves and get this economy fixed first. If he doesn't get this one thing right, Iran will be the least of our worries.

Mr. President, America doesn't expect you to do everything. We do however, expect you to oversee the show. You've got a Secretary of State...let her play the games with Iran.

Frankly, I'd prefer he took a two-year vacation. Parties every night. Invite all of Congress, PLEASE.

It would cost us far less than to have him "working."

Obama gets into the Oval Office bright and early at 9:30.
He is one hard working SOB. He even gets in that early on Thursday mornings, after his Wednesday night cocktail parties. He is living the life of a Rock Star.

On the other hand, President Bush was there at 7:00 A.M. along with Vice President Dick Cheney. You remember Cheney, he's the guy that had three heart attacks.

Hey Iran. This assclown does not speak for me nor likely the majority of Americans who realize that you are the enemy and that your sole purpose in being is to exterminate the United States and western civilization.You are the enemy and all real Americans will fight you to the end...

Obama is simply an entertainer. He does not have the skills needed to be President. Going on Leno is not what a President should do. This guy wastes time feeding his fat ego.

Drudge calls this “YouTube diplomacy.”

If you can stand it, here’s Obama’s message to Iran:

What do you want to bet she plants hemp, for a new source of fiber for making her designer clothes?

If the White House supervised the suggested DVD drop, they’d probably have the wrong region codes.
