Oh Lord, Oh Lord!
What a sheer bloody joy it was to see Barack Obama, peace be upon him, exposed as the mediocre, media-inflated, self-important regional politician he so obviously is.
The emperor was revealed as having no clothes at all, as being totally naked. In spite of the massive amounts of media spin and Hollywood slander, in spite of the pompous, smug, verbose and tendentious moderator, in spite of Obama’s blatant dishonesty, Mitt Romney looked the adult to the president’s child. A mature and responsible adult at that, to a petulant and angry child.
Perhaps the most startling moment of the debate was when Romney told Obama: “Listen, I’ve been in business for 25 years. I have no idea what you’re talking about. I maybe need to get a new accountant. The idea that you get a break for taking jobs overseas is simply not the case.”
Obama was suddenly the community organizer playing with the big boys. He lowered his head, looked scared and tired, was clearly in enormous trouble.
Beyond Romney’s electoral gains after the debate, remember foreign policy is still to come, and that should leave the president drowning in a sea of accusations.
Why did he joke and laugh with donors hours after a U.S. ambassador had been murdered?
Why did he tell us a movie had caused that murder when he knew it was a planned terror attack?
Why has he insisted on apologizing to an Islamic world that sees compromise as weakness?
Why has he not supported foreign liberation movements in Iran that look to Washington for help, but aided revolutionaries in the Middle East who despise the United States? Does he realize that his policies have increased the chances of war between Iran and Israel? Does he know that Russia feels more enabled under him than it did under President Bush? Why do allies in Europe and Asia feel betrayed?
There are only so many ways and so many times you can tell people, “Yes we can,” when four years have shown, beyond doubt, that no, you can’t.
Whatever Bill Clinton’s moral failures, he was a well-travelled and informed politician when he came to the White House, and can boast some remarkable achievements in domestic and foreign policy while inside it. In comparison, Obama is a flickering shadow.
This may have been the worst defeat of an incumbent in the history of presidential debates. Challengers have been ripped apart in the past — nobody got the better of Ronald Reagan — but never has a sitting president done so badly. You know you’re in trouble when even your buddies in media and entertainment can’t joke and lie you out of defeat.
I almost forgot. A former substitute drama teacher announced he wanted to lead the Liberal party and become prime minister, because he loves his country and everybody else has got politics wrong. The theatrics of the banal; or, to put it another way, a downmarket Obama, but with even less gravitas and the speaking skills of an annoying 15-year-old agitator.
Mind you, my 14-year-old daughter’s school is putting on Romeo and Juliet and they do need an assistant stage manager.
Only part-time though.
WOW!!!
Mitt only needs only needs two coaches for his foreign policy debate preparation sessions: John Bolton and Newt Gingrich.
I believe credit should be given where credit is due. Let's not overlook an undeniable accomplishment by Obama of singlehandidly adding 7 states to our union.
LOL....
Damn... you know it';s going to be an ass kicking article when you read that in the first sentence...
Twofer..smear that pedophile mad man and offend his vermin followers and the fake demi-god Obama in one shot..
Obama doesn't need to realize it, he planned it...
I agree. Bill Clinton has nothing to boast about. He is pond scum with may dubious “achievements”.
When the story of this election cycle is written hopefully the conclusion will be that obozo as “bubble boy” - an affirmative action overreacher who was told he was brilliant by professors, enablers, a fawning media and a bunch of deluded libs - wilted under the bright lights of an even playing field.
Clamoring for a "king" when you don't need one is just idiotic nonsense. When some people think the president gives you a cell phone and a check you're basically in trouble, and these are the type of people Obama has been use to dealing with and why he couldn't keep up with Romney!
Now that obama is naked, I hope the Romney campaign strips the bark off him.
Defending liberalism before Obama was far easier. It hadn’t been codified in law.
The fact that the results of liberalism, with all its “unintended” consequences, have caused such glaringly apparent devastation on the economy makes liberalism impossible now to defend.
For this reason, Romney will win the next two debates, and Ryan will win his. Even Clinton would have trouble defending the last four years, they are simply indefensible.
Let's all hope & pray that Romney doesn't let up or buy into some of the crap I've read about how he was too "aggressive." I want to see bloody entrails on the floor at the next debate.
BUMP
Obama only knows how to play small ball. Look for him to get trounced again on foreign policy in the next debate. After that it will be all over except the cryin.
Obama will come loaded for bear at the 2nd forum and Romney will once again play the fox and box the pretender prez around the ears. The only hope for the Rats is to get the other debates canceled.
Bill Clinton has nothing to boast about. He is pond scum with may dubious “achievements”.”””
Most of Bill Clinton’s economy acheivments are directly tied to the burst of dot.com activity that occurred under his watch.
He didn’t start it—he didn’t get in the way of it—but those events occurred outside of his policies. Serious investors made it happen....not Clinton. He & Hillary were working hard to choke 16% of the American economy with Hillarycare.
I wish someone would point this out when everybody on the Liberal side is talking about how successful the economy was under Bill Clinton.
It was a fluke.
OTOH—I am tired of everyone blaming Bush for a deficit when he certainly wasn’t responsible for 9-11.
I put more of the blame for 9-11 against Bill Clinton & his stupid Sec of State. She wasn’t so ‘bright’ after all.
May Madeline Albright rot in hell for her and his policies.
They both got sold a huge bill of goods that we didn’t need intelligence ‘boots on the gound’ around the world & that everything could be done with electronic surveillance & satellites overhead.
It was a disastrous mistake, which someday a smart author will put all the pieces together & connect all the dots & write a blockbuster book about this failure.
The shine will then be serverely tarnished on Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton & Madeline Albright. The ‘professionals at the State Dept. should also have known much better.
