Start impeachment proceedings since he is NOT a NBC...due to his father...a Brit not an American Citizen.
His idea of "getting something done" is to tell somebody else to do it.
You are so right.
Not long ago, I ran across an old article that featured his Senate office. It pointed out the tasteful furnishings and "meaningful" artwork to be found there.
The desk was bare.
It also pointed out that the credenza behind the desk had file drawers, which were empty except for a "handful" of file folders.
I thought, looking at it, that this was a "showroom" office. There was nothing to indicate that any work was actually accomplished there. I'd have liked to have seen his staffer's desks by comparison.
Yes... the ghosts of Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao.
Plus Castro, Chavez, Kim Jong-Il, and Imanutjob.
There is no substance.
An article which examined Obama's entire job history -- it was by either Byron York or Stanley Kurtz -- recorded a clear pattern. Obama would take a job -- economic analyst, attorney, community organizer, foundation board member, state senator, US senator, etc. -- and immediately complain that he couldn't get anything done...because he didn't have enough "power".
Thus, the next step up the career ladder -- in search of more "power". Which, of course, also proved to invest him with insufficient power to do what he wanted.
Clearly, this is a man who has no understanding of "power" and where it comes from. To him, "power" is a cloak of office. It isn't earned, it's assumed by virtue of position.
As a concept, leadership is meaningless; persuasion is unneccessary. "Power" is the force majeure to decree what one wants.
The man has the arrogance and ego of a totalitarian. And he has the maturity and judgment of an adolescent.
These are dangerous times.
His idea of "getting something done" is to say it's done.
He closed the Guantanamo Bay prison for terrorist his first week in office. But we still have prisoners there.
He spent a couple trillion bucks to create jobs. He declared he had "created or saved" jobs.
He held a job summit and declared jobs "created or saved".
He declared he was sending aid to Haiti after the earthquake, yet the aid has not yet arrived.
Let's be precise, shall we?
Obama's idea of "getting something done" is to tell somebody else to do it. Then, say that it's done.
Don, I think your font size is a little large for this type of response. Lighten up, sir!
“The man has the arrogance and ego of a totalitarian. And he has the maturity and judgment of an adolescent.”
Well stated, okie01!
I merely replied in the same manner as Mrs. Palin did when a reporterette used that salutary in the lead-up to a question.
The size of the font was for emphasis, as opposed to volume, that being implied through all-caps and excessive punctuation.
Nonetheless, I will try to be less excitable on such minor insulting trivialities.
Have a good ‘un
“I merely replied in the same manner as Mrs. Palin did when a reporterette used that salutary in the lead-up to a question.”
My apologies for reading too much into your post. Have a nice day.
