President Screw-Up
Sunday, November 14, 2010 | cc

Posted on 11/14/2010 2:40:33 AM PST by canuck_conservative

This guy has the lead touch.

Next time your liberal friends tell you what a great leader Obama is, just point to what happened in Asia last week.

One of the main purposes of the Asia trip was to sign a free-trade agreement with South Korea. The deal had already been fully negotiated (under Bush), was all set to go, it just needed the President's signature. So what does Know-It-All do? He tries to renegotiate the terms to be more friendly to his union buddies back home.

End result? Talks collapse, no trade deal. Obama heads home empty-handed - again. Talk about snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory.

And now this idiot wants compliments??

Fortunately, only another 25 months of this screw-up to put up with.

Who has liberal Friends?
The 12% who defend this idiot would say what ZERO would say, that the deal was bad for America.

For decades I have referred to it as the “Reverse Midas” touch. Every thing he touches turns to “crap” (is the nice word).

There was not much expectation at all for this trip out here. Nearly zero.

He certainly managed to not disappoint!

Fauxbama is a screw up and the worst salesman on the planet.

He couldn’t close a closet door.

Nothing like on-the-job training in negotiation skills to eliminate all doubt as to one’s savoir faire.

Palin successfully negotiated with Canadian counterpart to give us that Largest Gas Project in America.

Obama only had to eat what GWB has cooked for him. Instead he put “foul” ingredients and the South Korean counterparts vomited everything.

Compare the skills in negotiation ... and the clear winner is SARAH PALIN!

Hi AIT. How was Zer0’s Japan trip reported in Japan? Is the Japanese press pro-Obama or do they call it like it is?

There’s such a total amateurishness to the way the White House is operating now, you really have to wonder if Obama is ignoring his professional advisors (who are mostly white) and listening only to his inexperienced female troika (Valerie Jarrett, Michelle, and Mother Robinson).

Would explain a few things.

Errr. You better hope that there IS an America left in 25 months.
I would not take any bets on it.

The line about beer to Marines in the middle of a desert comes to mind!

Eventually, it has to penetrate even his unbelievable Narcissism that he is NOWHERE near as smart as he thinks he is, that he is NOT universally loved or admired, and that one of the biggest reasons why the world’s opinion of Americans has taken a nose dive recently is because the country was stupid enough to elect him.

I never thought I would look back nostalgically for the Clinton years. At least while he was boffing bimbo interns he was not screwing the rest of the nation.

25 months? Sheeesh! I want him gone yesterday.

I do not think he can last another 6 months let alone 25.

Rumor is that he is mentally unstable, and on medication.

I don’t think Obama wanted this FTA to succeed in the first place.

Hitler finds out Obama danced in India. IMHO the funniest Hitler parody.
