The stunning decline of Barack Obama: 10 key reasons why the Obama presidency is in meltdown

By Nile Gardiner

The last few weeks have been a nightmare for President Obama, in a summer of discontent in the United States which has deeply unsettled the ruling liberal elites, so much so that even the Left has begun to turn against the White House.

While the anti-establishment Tea Party movement has gained significant ground and is now a rising and powerful political force to be reckoned with, many of the president’s own supporters as well as independents are rapidly losing faith in Barack Obama, with open warfare breaking out between the White House and the left-wing of the Democratic Party.

While conservatism in America grows stronger by the day, the forces of liberalism are growing increasingly weaker and divided.

One of the posters in the Telegraph article said this:

“The 11th reason is because Obama is a “Pole Turtle”. If you ever see a turtle sitting on top of a fence pole you know the following: He didn’t get up there by himself. He doesn’t belong up there. He doesn’t know what to do while up there. He certainly isn’t going anywhere and you have to wonder what kind of dumbass put him there in the first place.”

LOL (if it wasn’t so sad)

#11) Because the Kool-Aid was new and improved Marxist flavor?
#12) Because bankruptcy is bad enough when you do it to yourself, but it REALLY sucks when the government does it to you?
#13) Because there are still enough Americans that believe that they should be represented, not ruled?
#14) Because my dog has more papers regarding her birth than Obama?

7. Obama’s handling of the Gulf oil spill has been weak-kneed and indecisive

Aside the obvious in this category, two things ticked me off:

1. The sound-bite (before BP met and put some money in the fund) when BO was asked he was going to meet with BP's CEO. He would not because of (his - BO's) Vast Experience. Many articles point out in any setting he's in he is out-classed in the experience dept. All this childish remark accomplished is how bad he needs to bluster to mask his lack of experience and wussiness.

2. The MSM making all the 'noise' about the CEO sailing off England during the crises while silent of BO's golf course stints during this time.

“Obama thinks he has only one thing going for him - he is not Bush.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

In his case that is not a positive. Obama would need to climb a tall ladder to be in a position to kiss George Bush’s rear end.

This is actually a list of numbers 991 through 1000 — the first 990 are “He sucks.”

I was wearing my “I LOVE MY COUNTRY-IT’S THE GOVERNMENT I’M AFRAID OF” t-shirt while doing some grocery shopping today and the first ten people who commented on it told me Obama is an A$$HOLE. I’m going with that. ;-)
