Ummm, you have a good point. His teleprompter quit. Did you hear that? The pretty boy is going west to see if he can make a new career of stand up comedy. As I figure it, he’s got a pretty impressive track record and an impeccable resume. If someone wants to say his wax wings are melting, then maybe Madame Tussauds ought to get involved.

Fresh new way to upset Pelosi. Fresh new sign of disrespect to give us no starting point for debate!

The Democrats should not have run an obviously inexperienced unqualified individual in the first place. His speech the other night was same old same old. He and his team do not have an original thought of any kind. They are just peddling the same old tired liberal/radical wish list that have been tried in the last three years and failed. Obama could care less about this country other than being re-elected. Hopefully the people who voted for this jerk have wised up!

When I saw his campaign in 2008 and the way people were reacting to him and the way we was starting to believe his own hype even months after he was elected, i.e. “you got me” during the healthcare debate, I told my wife that his fall will be as hard as his rise.

Looks like I got a winner

I hadn’t realized that Dana Milbank, of all people, had turned negative on Obama, too. In addition to Maureen Dowd, Bill Maher, Louis Farrakhan and others. Hell yeah; I'm lovin' this.

It is my dream that Obama is retained as the Democrat nominee. It will be an ugly fight and leave many of the Democrats in Congress wounded and or defeated.

Obama will not be reelected. However, he may with good luck take down a major portion of Democrats in Congress with him.

The main stream media does not give a damn about Obama on a personal basis. They are ideologically driven. When articles such as the above start coming from them they know he is poison for them.

Et Tu Bruta.

By now, the cult-like effect Obama had on his supporters is a distant, fading memory. The Greek columns built for his convention speech now look simply silly, as does Obama's promise to heal the earth and reverse the ocean tide.

I got yer "Greek columns" hangin' right heah, Mr. Obama. Heh, heh...heh, heh...

was routinely compared to Kennedy, to FDR, and even to Lincoln

By himself, Demonratz, and a lying syncopantic press....

Rational people compared him to Jimmy Carter, Mao, Al Sharpton....

And I wouldn’t give him credit for being a “literate” man by more than the lowest level of standard.

AT one time, I was very liberal, and I grew up, learned, and changed my world view to very Conservative. D’ohBama, having grown up, NEVER has learned anything new since he was educated un-American. That to me doesn’t imply any high IQ. At some point, a smart, high -IQ type would learn from past failures, and improve. D’ohBama has not done this, from my perspective.

Excellent post.

Obama’s greatest value to our side will be in all the Dems he’s taken down in 010 and more 012.

Any Dem who’s not in a raving liberal district or state is sweating bigtime over the 012 election.

"It has been a stunning fall from grace for Obama...."

"Stunning fall", my foot!

This phrase is reminiscent of the "unexpected rise in unemployment figures" and the "unanticipated fall in retail sales" spins we hear every single week as the economy worsens.

Obama's fall is not "stunning" to those of us who knew a lot about the original presidential candidate Obama. Especially those of us from the Chicago area.

We knew he was a street pimp hustling votes and passing out turkeys and cheap wine to help corrupt ward committeemen on election day. We knew he was the most liberal state senator albeit an ineffective one, consistently voting "present" on touchy issues. We knew he was a red diaper baby, a trained but cleverly low-key radical....all the while socially adept enough to mingle with the leftist academic elite and monied leftist swells in and around the University of Chicago campus....a commie training ground since the early 1900's.

Many folks familiar with Barack Obama's red history and lack of qualifications for the presidency tried to warn people but there was too much stardust in the eyes of average joes and in the eyes of many friends and neighbors we thought had more discernment.

And, of course, the corrupt media fanned the flames of cultishness surrounding the boy king and covered up his biography or lack of one.

Funny thing is, I had an educated furniture "repair doctor" specialist over yesterday to mend a broken bureau. He had voted for Obama. He told me his business was "slow".

When I naturally followed up by asking him how the messiah's "hopey, changy thing" was working for him he answered, of course, by blaming all the current catastrophes on Bush.

We may laugh, but I hear this a lot from diehard Obamanites who should have learned something by now....and, believe me, "it's all Bush's fault" is said in all seriousness even in the midst of the current chaos and despair.

This ongoing stupidity and obliviousness is what's REALLY "stunning"!

I am sure there STILL will be those who have blinders on as to the truth about the goals of Obama and his Marxist gang and no doubt many in Illinois and other “Socialist pockets” across our country. But I still see the tide turning.

Just a little fact from New York this morning:

This happened in NYC .. Ground Zero .. For the ones who didn't have the chance to watch the Memorial today ... Both Obama and Bush in attendance ...

8:46 AM Obama spoke, nothing spectacular ... Silence ...

9:03 AM Bush spoke .. read the letter that Lincoln wrote to a widow who lost 5 sons in the Civil War .. Interrupted twice with cheers and applause ...

Yes, Mr. Obama, the people are telling you how they feel about you and how they don't appreciate you destroying our nation.

Like that great billboard in Texas says: "So you voted for Obama to prove your not a racist? Vote for someone else in 2012 to prove your not an idiot!"

All that is said in this thread about arrogance, hubris and disconnect was evident in the fiasco of the 'Bamster demanding a joint session of Congress [during an important Repub media event] in order to make a political speech. ...and, let us not forget how the stupid MSM has done everything they can to promote this silly fantasy of divine destiny.

In reality we seemingly witness Navy flight 19 winging confidently into the Bermuda Triangle.
