Obama has no 'charm' but presents only an embittered countenance and appears anxious to get away for a smoke break.

Strict adherence to the Constitution would do Americans a world of good. It would lead us to far more prosperity than the Progressives (Communist Traitors) could dream of. And that is the point--we don't want them implementing the policies of their dreams. We want the individuals to do that! We want to be the Progressives' nightmare.

I think much of 0bama's 'arrogance' is based on weakness. It's a front for the fact that he simply cannot allow for any of his policies/programs to be seriously debated. He's a dumba$$ in my book. I remember pimps on 14th Street in DC who were just as glib but far wiser than him.
We didn't just lower the bar for 0bama; we laid it on the ground.

Obama’s been named Captain Ahab in the Brit press for his obsession with healthcare “change” and inability to govern.

How apt!

He showed himself to be a petulent child like politician, not the miracle worker and constructive person he desired to demonstrate. All in all it was very boring to watch and one had to be alert to the nuggets of truth that showed through. I think perhaps the GOP could have made more of the fact they had not been consulted about anything prior to that day. Canter had the perfect opportunity when demeaned by Ozero for bringing a “prop”, the actual bill. He could have countered this was the first time they had any input into the pile of crap sitting before him.

I do not believe the GOP came off as “obstructionist”. They merely pointed out what they wanted to see in the bill. Meanwhile, there was never an adequate answer from either Ozero or his fellow travelers how any of those points would or may be addressed, rather, Ozero just wanted to polish the language and try to make a sow’s ear into silk purse. Meanwhile, Ozero and his minions know they have until the New Congress gets seated to get this done if they ever do because many of the pro bill supporters will be GONE in 2011.

Does anyone else think his casual attire at these meetings is demeaning to the Office?

“You’re right. There was an imbalance on the opening statement because I’m the president.”

In print, this comment loses the dripping arrogance with which it was said.

0 has no style, no experience, no substance. It has been elected through the cult of vacuous personality which permeates the political estate, in which truth is transient and sincerity is rehearsed.

Obama is a puppet. It’s the puppetmasters that scare the crapola out of me. He’s got another one, the union president that so far has been running things under the radar, coming to the rescue. God save us all.

” . . . and that’s what elections are for.”

Seems that the Democrats and the liberal media have missed the point that the Bamster has thrown them under the bus in his spoiled-brat, Lucy-Van-Pelt temper tantrum. He wants to have his way and believes everyone else is Charlie Brown.

Not to mention that the commiecraps’ presentation looked like a yuppie group therapy meeting at the asylum blaming their actions on the stories of fake constituents having to wear their dead sister’s false teeth that need their help, terribly....just terribly.

lol with remarks like “Because I am the President.” I expect even the foolish Reps could be won over.

Obama has the charm of the brother-in-law who can’t put down the spiked egg nog at the family Christmas party.

Obama's "Charms" failed to Woo GOP at Summit

Looking back a few months from now, that may be the understatement of the year.

Any person who is seasoned in the business world has encountered this personality type. Overall, in the end, all but a limited circle of close associates just quiety avoid the person and avoid having to interact with him/her. I suspect that, my now, a large number of both REPUBS and DEMS have decided to just avoid the Odumbo at all costs and to go about doing the best they can under the circumstances. Reid and Pelousy are stuck to Odumbo’s arse, unfortunately.

TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search:

http://economicspolitics.blogspot.com/2009/05/tricare-for-life-is-obama-trying-to.html

This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollee’s cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.) http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/99xx/doc9925/12-18-HealthOptions.pdf

By Rick Maze - Staff writer, Oct 7, 2009

Tricare fee increases imposed last week by the Defense Department will be repealed by a provision of the compromise 2010 defense authorization bill unveiled Wednesday by House and Senate negotiators.
Snip The fee increases were announced on Sept. 30 and took effect on Oct. 1, but the defense bill, HR 2647, includes a provision barring any fee increases until the start of fiscal 2011.

Snip

Retired Army Maj. Gen. Bill Matz, president of the National Association for Uniformed Services, said the announcement of fee increases was shocking considering that the Obama administration promised earlier this year to hold off on any new fee Tricare fee increases until fiscal 2011.

“President Obama and DoD assured NAUS and the entire military family earlier this year that there would rightly be no increases in any Tricare fees” in fiscal 2010, Matz said. “We took them at their word, and I can’t believe that a co-pay increase like this was allowed to go forward,” he added.
