Obama the wimp: unable to act like a President
thefirstpost.co.uk ^

Posted on 6/6/2010, 10:52:16 PM by Maggie Maggie Maggie

Americans don't care to have a wimp in the White House.

They'll take almost any outlandish vulgarity from their commander-in-chief and give him a positive job-rating. But wimpishness? No.

Until Obama, the last president to earn wimp ranking was Jimmy Carter whose chances of re-election 30 years ago expired when he gave wimpish speeches about America's "malaise" and was photographed beating off a rabbit that swam up to his canoe and tried to board it.

Obama isn't in that sort of trouble yet, but he's drifting close.

The fates soon sniff out wimps and deal them bad cards. Obama was all set to make a big speech in Chicago on Memorial Day, last Monday. Not only was he rained out but he started quavering to the crowd about the danger of lightning before scuttling off with his Secret Service guards and getting bogged down in a traffic jam.

Maggie... I don’t know if you read the whole article but it seemed to me the author is pretty much virulently anti Israel. Not too cool JMHO.

No one with any sense listens to that drug addled idiot. Didn't we tell the Brits to buzz off in 1776? I think we did. Piss off Paul.

Ain't one damned thing wimpy about Obama. Heck, Barry is so manly, he should take over the Old Spice job from this guy...

Apparently Obama makes for a GREAT politician/snake oil salesman however when the rubber meets the road and decisions have to be made....

The guy has no soul, no credence, no sense of right and wrong, he has nothing to base a decision on.

He is no leader.

Good article except when the writer referred to “Israel’s piracy.”

I keep hearing Obama is this hardened Chicago-style thug politician, but I don’t buy it. I think he’s more just a puppet doing the bidding of such types.

It ain't the "fates" it's the wolves. When they sense weakness they circle in for the kill.

"He is no leader."

He isn't even a man. He is a low life politacal hack without a set. I'll bet he sits down to (well you know what).

June 4 (Bloomberg) — President Barack Obama is poised to increase the U.S. debt to a level that exceeds the value of the nation’s annual economic output, a step toward what Bill Gross called a “debt super cycle.”

I wish the article had said “fending off a rabbit” instead of “beating off a rabbit”.

I was a nadir moment in a basement presidency though.

Agreed. Perhaps a sacrificial lamb.

We now know the gory details of Barry’s Occidental years.
He was an avowed and committed Marxist.
He looked forward to the revolution when the Marxists would overthrow our government.
His love for Marxism was unusually strong .
He was in passionate agreement with the most radical Marxist Leninist professors.
The full interview is devastating.
Too bad Fox News ignored Dr Drew in 2008 when he contacted them.

Family of origin - red diaper baby, as they used to say.

I still think he is disposable in the view of his handlers though.

The specific attraction to Marxism-Leninism is particularly interesting. Much of what he is advocating and in fact advancing is analogous to Lenin’s New Economic Policy as a transition to proletarian socialism.

Lenin was also quite express that total control of media and the violent liquidation of political opposition were inherent components in his concept of revolution.
