Obama Admits that He’s Just Not Up to the Job
PJ Media ^ | July 31, 2013 | BRYAN PRESTON

Posted on 08/03/2013 9:07:51 AM PDT by Hojczyk

But what has Obama himself been doing throughout 2013? Pushing gun control, and then pushing an immigration bill, and failing at both, in between vacations and rounds of golf. Whose eye is off the ball here?

As the failures have piled up and the economic data isn’t getting any better, a frustrated Obama now critiques the system he leads as if he’s just a bystander and threatens to just bypass Congress to exert his will. Neither of those amounts to anything close to leadership, making deals, and compromising. His rhetoric in fact makes compromises all but impossible, because he resorts to accusing Republicans of various evils rather than acknowledging that they have real, legitimate points.

He mounts campaigns. They fail. He gives empty speeches that no one outside his hand-picked puppet shows believes. He beats up on the system that he’s been elected to and is supposed to lead, but can’t. When the system goes awry, which is the most charitable view of the IRS scandal available, he fake-fires people and calls it a day. Or, in the case of Benghazi, he just pretends that he doesn’t have to explain his actions that night, and acts like he isn’t the commander-in-chief.

Barack Obama is admitting in all this that he just can’t do the job of president and he doesn’t really want to anymore. Not in the system we have, anyway. So he’ll be a mouthy dictator and endlessly unhappy critic for three more years, and the Democrats and the media will go on pretending that he’s a god-king.

He has the lung capacity of a parrot and speaks in an annoying 3-4 word cadence, then pauses for a gulp of air in his tiny lungs. Throw in the uhs and umms and ahhs and you have one rousing public speaker, no doubt.

Dang it. He’s good at giving speeches. I are writing gooder and speaking weller all the time. I put it down to my public school education.

“but interesting enough he has on a gentleman who claims the lack of jobs are one reason things are so bad”

They keep dancing around these important points: if you are motivated, talk well, dress accordingly and have some gumption, there are jobs out there to be had. Or if your talents lay in the mechanical area, word of mouth alone will get you all the business you can handle The best example is the jerk running this country. With nothing more than a gift of gab, a decent suit and a swell tan, he talked himself into the Oval office. Sadly, a media driven personality has the future of me, my family and perhaps the entire free world in his grasp and he does not have the sense to do the right thing, he’d rather rule in democrat hell than serve the nation in conservative heaven.

How about if BO is not responsible for the economy, then why was Bush or Clinton? Next time the BJ lovers start talking about how great Clinton’s economy was it should be pointed out that he wasn’t responsible just like Obama.

He can give a good speech. He’s a one-trick pony.

One man's opinion...(on the speech that is, as to the pony thing, he is an exceptionally good liar, world class like whatshisname, you know that, Clinton fella!)

He beats up on the system that he’s been elected to, and is supposed to lead, and is administered by people who think like he does, but can’t.

Management by dreamworld.

Ever see the movie “Idiocracy”?——it’s way too close to be funny. More like a documentary.
