Few Americans needed Standard & Poor to confirm the mismanagement of the United States government and its finances. The downgrading of American credit will raise interest rates on America’s huge debt and ultimately on all Americans. Popular polls say that most Americans blame Congress—but that’s too simplistic. As much as Barack Obama would like to shift that blame onto Congress, the fault lies squarely on the shoulders of President. It is first and foremost a leadership problem that is crippling America—and the leader is President Barack Obama—not the many members of Congress.
No matter how many speeches he makes, the conclusion is clear: Obama’s greatest failure is spending America into enormous deficits, and being clueless about how to get the economy to recover. His speeches, riddled with “I” and “We” are mostly serving to indict him for his failings. Appearing on TV more than any other sitting president, Barack Obama is constantly “explaining” why things aren’t working, when he should be working on what to do different and better.
Instead he is “campaigning,” which is the only thing he knows how to do reasonable well. But he can’t fix the economy; he has neither the experience nor the knowhow to do it. His failed, misguided policies have only exacerbated the size of his mistakes and shortcomings.

I agree. Anyone that voted for this POS is a person I care not to associate with.
“I agree. Anyone that voted for this POS is a person I care not to associate with.”
Exactly!
The author forgot to mention, "It turns out we found out that things were far worse in 2008 than even we realized....." which beings just about every recent speech.
I wish they could be stripped of their voting rights. I hold anyone who voted for this bastard directly responsible for the destruction of this country.
ObamAA+
prolly the cop-killer in Philly.
Isn’t it possible to be both incompetent AND evil? In a way, incompetence is the most effective evil of all.
“I wish they could be stripped of their voting rights. I hold anyone who voted for this bastard directly responsible for the destruction of this country.”
They are the most damaging segment of the population, in the history of the country.
“Can’t wait to see who he pardons on his last night in the WH.”

Should be quite interesting.
Remember, it was the “Republican” Peggy Noonans, David Brooks, David Gergens, Colon (sic) Powells, John McCains, etc., who all supported this guy.
He cannot wait to become the new Jimmy Carter...an imbecile, ridiculous, preachy ex-president living off the national dole for decades...being arrogant and telling the world how it should live.
Probably not thought anyone here wants to hear...because complacency delivers upsets...but after this, Obama cannot win re-election. Even this is plain enough for the foolish American voters to understand - it is unprecedented. He’s done...Hillary has to be calculating...
When faced with his party’s impending losses in 2008 elections, Obama dispatched Rahm Emmanuel to attempt buying-off candidates in the 2008 primaries with a promise of high-level jobs, a legally questionable practice at best, and unethical one at worst.When faced with his party’s impending losses in 2008 elections, Obama dispatched Rahm Emmanuel to attemptbuying-offto buy off candidates in the 2008 primaries with a promise of high-level jobs - an unethical and legally questionable practice at best.
Not to be a grammar policeman, but this article steps on some good points with weak writing.
We have our second black prez setting out to retire like the first.

Before this American economic disaster is fully delivered, the stooges of Obama will deny they ever knew the guy.
A large jet plane crashed on a farm in the middle of rural Kentucky.
Panic stricken, the local sheriff mobilized and descended on the farm in force. By the time they got there, the aircraft was totally destroyed with only a burned hull left smoldering in a tree line that bordered the farm.
The sheriff and his men entered the smoking mess but could find no remains of anyone.
They spotted a farmer plowing a field not too far away as if nothing had happened. They hurried over to the man’s tractor.
“Hank!!” the sheriff yelled, panting and out of breath.
“Did you see this terrible accident happen?”
“Yep. Sure did,” the farmer mumbled unconcerned, cutting off the tractor’s engine.
“Do you realize that is Air Force One, the airplane of the President
of the United States?”
“Yep.”
“Were there any survivors?”
“Nope. They’s all kilt straight out,” the farmer answered. “I done buried them all myself. Took me most of the morning.”
“President Obama is dead?” the sheriff asked.
“Well,” the farmer grumbled, restarting his tractor.“He kept a-saying he wasn’t. But you know how bad that sumbitch lies.”
Alright, so that wasn’t all that amusing. Given the grim seriousness of the situation I’ll grant that a bit of levity IS warrented; here’s something to cheer you up: http://pajamasmedia.com/victordavishanson/our-ten-trillion-dollar-man/
