A perspective on our president from Down Under.
In Herman Wouk’s classic World War II novel, The Caine Mutiny, there is a moment when a group of the ship’s officers are getting away from the increasingly eccentric Captain Queeq by relaxing ashore.
Suddenly the malcontent Lieutenant Keefer asks the others: “Does it occur to you that Captain Queeg may be insane?
In fact Queeg is not insane, at least not at that time. He is simply grappling, more and more disastrously, with a job too big for him. Come the crisis of a typhoon, he becomes paralyzed and nearly sinks the ship by failing to give the obvious orders.
Before this, the officers have searched the regulations for guidance, but the regulations refer only to a captain who is clearly and unmistakably insane, not one who is merely guilty of eccentricity and bad judgment.
Like Queeg, Obama shows an inability to change course when such a change is desperately needed.
What, exactly have things come to when a cockroach of a country, apparently run by real, certifiable lunatics, can threaten the United States with nuclear weapons? The typhoon waves are starting to break over the bridge.

Check all that apply...
Well, he is not insane and he is not stupid.
Anyone who started college in 1968 or later knows EXACTLY what he is.
Anyone who has studied Marxism-Leninism knows EXACTLY what he believes, and why, and what’s next.
He’s amazingly simple to read - its just that most Americans can’t or don’t want to believe it.
And he’s not Queeg.
So much idiocy in journalism. Sigh.
Huh?
BINGO
Hat tip back to you! \:)
Fabulous picture, HA!...YOU.. are.. the.. BEST!
He’ll be your strawberry.
Fabulous picture, HA!...YOU.. are.. the.. BEST!
He should be referred to as..”Old Yellowstain”...yeah..

I might believe that Obama is incompetent if he would stop getting everything he wants.
Seems to me he is pretty shrewd and indeed has a plan.
Exactly what would have happened to Sherman Cooper if his friends had turned against him in Big Bang Theory.
ALL democrats are insane, and evil.
And need to be gone from the world.
He’s evil and stupid but Queeg was relatively a completely benign figure.
Oh, and Boehner and McConnell will fold like a couple of cheap suits before this Friday.
I would have gone with Reggie Love's pet name for him: ”Old Brownstain”...
“Well, he is not insane and he is not stupid. Anyone who started college in 1968 or later knows EXACTLY what he is.”
I agree he is not insane or stupid. He is just a true believer of the insane and stupid things he was taught. He is also an activist. That makes him dangerous.
Ya THINK!?!?!??
If we're lucky they'll stop at merely giving him everything he's asked for.
