Krauthammer on Obama’s Address: “I Thought I Was Cynical Until I Heard That Speech” (Video)
Gateway Pundit ^ | 7/25/11 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 07/25/2011 11:22:01 PM PDT by Nachum

Charles Krauthammer unloaded on Obama tonight after his stale poll-driven speech to the nation. Obama still has no plan.

“I thought I was cynical until I heard that speech. It was purely partisan. It was meant as a campaign speech. And I think it was a speech from yesterday.”

Charles, BamBamKennedy is NOT saying anything different now, than back when you were wowing and wooing him. Some of US took note when your guy told Joe the Plumber what his intentions for US were before he was elected. Why did that NOT cause you to question what was about to be done to US then? See Charles your reaction to Sarah's speech at the convention and putting her down over BamCare ‘death commissions’ are still sealed in my mind. Meaning your opinion does not hold any weight.

Krouty is right on here. This dull speech was for the Independents consumption. Only problem is that Moderates probably didn't watch that turd and have already given up on him. Polling shows this. The GOP ought to ask for Obummer to pay the networks for airing a blatant campaign ad.

It was a blame everybody but himself speech.

He should be embarrassed but he's not capable of that in the little Marxist world he's dwelling in.

Sheesh.... This guy's turning himself into the biggest laughingstock in history.

He may well be 'book' smart, but he was from the get go a BM/Biden supporter. And there was NOT a lack of information of what the liberals had intent to do to US even back then. And I won't be forgetting any time soon his reaction to Sarah. He can sit on his haughty intellect and at least when I get the opportunity say, 'Hey Charles, you are dissing your guy'. Cry me a river.

I have the same trust in the sincerity of Kraut's commentary as I have in Karl Rove's.

Like those old ads for Tuna Fish, "Sorry, Charlie".

Kraut was more than happy to champion Barry at several critical junctures and no matter what he does now that the tide has turned, I say he's shown his true colors. At best he's an idiot RINO who is as opposed to true Conservatives as he is to radical fascists, and at worst he's just another fascist plant to spread disinformation in the form of "thoughtful conservative commentary".

Like Noonan and Gurgin, he's been willing to support fascists who want to destroy the Constitution over Conservative Republicans, so the most important thing to him is his own standing, even if he has to help the democrat fascists to hang onto it. No matter what he does or pretends to believe at this point, when it could have made a real difference with a lot of people in the middle he went along with the fascists rather than fighting for the alternative and even went out of his way to slander Palin.

JMHO

I do not trust either of them. But I cannot 'judge' their sincerity... this maybe just who they are and nobody has ever called them on their double minds.

You are correct! Dr.K has taken 3 years to get up to speed. Most of us
knew better.

These so-called smart guys only comment on the present .Dr. K is weak or is overly cautious in his political analysis.

I’m sure he was one of those “intellectual conservatives” who believed Obama
would be rational rather than ideological.

We do need Obama to fail, Dr.K.

scant insight into l ,philisophical o foresight
or insight

Note to Chuck: This is the same angry, disjointed speech he gave at the 2008 Convention when you said he “came down from the mountain”. It was clear then, and it’s clear now. You’re late to the party.

Amen. All those who claim he used to give a good speech but now doesn’t fell for the lying hype.
