How to be Unpresidential

Has everyone seen the latest from our current liar in chief?

In response to the public's correct view that this President is unqualified to be a leader during disasters, Barry makes the following comment: "I was down there a month ago, before most of these talking heads were even paying attention to the gulf. A month ago I was meeting with fishermen down there, standing in the rain (poor baby) talking about what a potential crisis this could be," Obama said, defending his administration's handling of the spill. "And I don't sit around just talking to experts because this is a college seminar; we talk to these folks because they potentially have the best answers, so I know whose ass to kick."

Tough words from the person who has allegedly been in charge the entire time. How about starting with your own? Add this to his unpresidential statement of how he has his boot on the neck of BP. Then add on how he was spouting about forcing BP not to pay their dividend. Why doesn't he just force BP into bankruptcy? Is Barry short BP stock or something? I would like to know how many retirees depend on BP dividends. Maybe he should just take over BP, I am sure that would make the average American feel so much better given Barry's tremendous experience at being in a position of executive leadership.

According to the latest ABC/Washington Post poll, more than two-thirds of those polled, 69 percent, disapprove of the federal government's handling of the spill. That's higher than the outrage over the Bush administration's handling of Hurricane Katrina.

Rich, that number is 69%! Unfortunately thus far Barry has made most of my pre-election predictions come true. The only people still supporting him are the hard core liberal Kool Aid drinkers or those that stand to gain financially because of Barry taking care of them. Rich has pointed out that President Reagan's poll numbers were lower at this juncture. But what you fail to mention in your attempt to rewrite history is that Barry was at a 69% approval rating in January of 2009. No President has fallen farther and faster at this point in their Presidency! Barry came in promising a new and better world and he is delivering the exact opposite. Instead of hope we are getting despair!

President Reagan was blessed with his unbridled optimism and the fact that he had experience being an executive where Barry has this so called cool, laid back demeanor coupled with tremendous arrogance and a hair trigger temper. Not qualities to give the American public confidence that things are going to get better. We are all witnessing the fall of the US mostly due to the ugly fact that the liberals still believe in Keynesian economic principles even though they have been shown to be ineffectual over and over and over again. We cannot continue to sustain the pace of spending 100s of thousands of dollars for each temporary job that this Administration creates. It is clearly unsustainable and the road to ruin as a nation.

Mark - Did your pre-election predictions include Obama arresting Bushes plunging job tally's and reviving job growth? Did they include boasting the strongest economic growth relative to Europe and Japan? That, despite inheriting the worst economy since the Great Depression would suggest solid policies. Did you predict that America would begin to regain her moral authority around the world?

If you had predicted those things - as I did - you were prescient.

Watch Obama's "ass kicking" statement beginning with Matt Laurer's question, which asked if he needed to "kick butt". Add some context, my friend...

Doesn't matter what the context is. It was a low class statement and since he is in charge of this disaster he should get himself an ass kicking machine so he can start with the number one problem, his own.

Barry hasn't even talked to the CEO of BP. He is in so far over his inexperienced head that he has no clue what to do anymore.
