In his defense, he gave an one of the most brilliant World Cup performances in history, getting briefed by a staffer on the outcome of the game.

 

Ah, but was he actually in the situation room during that briefing? Isn't it just possible there was a late show taping at the same time, or a fund raiser just down the block...? Did the staffer speak the briefing, or did she/he send POTUS an email, OR was POTUS left to learn the details from an article in the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle? Does he know the USA was eliminated from World Cup play?

Nice puff piece blaming Bush for Obama's presidency. Kind of sad that despite all the media support his approval ratings are still ****.

More liberal whining that the job is just too big for their guy, their ideas, their philosophy. So ramp up the histrionics and point fingers at the first target that comes to mind. Some real forward thinking there. Overlook the underlying causes of the current world status and simply say - hey the other guy crapped in the chair... and you expect ME to clean it up? All the while ignoring the fact that the chair is at the helm of the ship of State and the dangerous world seas are now being navigated by a captain without credentials, experience, or the least bit of understanding of the real world as it simply does not comport with his preconceived notion of how the world is. He's a maroon and nearly singlehandedly is turning this nation into a cesspool of lawlessness.

We’re No. 33!

 

 

 

That’s the bottom line in a new Gallup poll measuring the extent of freedom in 135 countries. Only 79% of Americans say they’re satisfied with their freedom to choose what to do with their lives, down from 87% in 2008. The top five nations where people feel most satisfied with their freedoms are New Zealand, Australia, Cambodia, Sweden and the United Arab Emirates. At No. 33, the United States is sandwiched between Bahrain and Cameroon.

No, I blame Obama, all these people screaming "tyranny" since his election has made many more people feel they have lost their free-dumb

 

So even when you do "blame" Obama you don't. With him it's always someone else. Good job.

You have to remember, to a statist like gator, having more Americans feel their freedom slipping away is good news! But he won't truly be happy until we decline more than Egypt, and given that Obama is partly responsible for the schitthole that Egypt has become, you know gatorman is feeling pretty optimistic about America's race to the bottom.

Our Roost, Obama’s Chickens : From the Middle East to Russia to our own southern border, Obama’s bills are coming due.

By Victor Davis Hanson

 

Often, crazy things seem normal for a time because logical catastrophes do not immediately follow.

 

A deeply suspicious Richard Nixon systematically and without pushback for years undermined and politicized almost every institution of the federal government, from the CIA and the FBI to the IRS and the attorney general’s office. Nixon seemed to get away with it — until his second term. Once the public woke up, however, the eventual accounting proved devastating: resignation of a sitting president, prison sentences for his top aides, collapse of the Republican party, government stasis, a ruined economy, the destruction of the Vietnam peace accords that had led to a viable South Vietnam, the end of Henry Kissinger’s diplomatic breakthroughs, and a generation of abject cynicism about government. Did Nixon ever grasp that such destruction was the natural wage of his own paranoia?

 

In the post-Watergate climate of reform, for nearly three years a naïve Jimmy Carter gave utopian speeches about how American forbearance would end the Cold War and create a new world order based on human rights — until America’s abdication started to erode the preexisting global order. Scary things followed, such as the fall of the shah of Iran, the rise of Iranian theocracy, the taking of American hostages in Tehran, revolutions and insurrection throughout Central America, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, radical Islamists taking over Mecca, more gas lines, continued stagflation, and China invading Vietnam. Did the puritanical Carter ever understand what might be the consequences of his own self-righteousness in an imperfect world?

 

Barack Obama likewise has done some crazy things that seemed for years to have no ramifications. Unfortunately, typical of the ways of Nemesis (a bitter goddess who waits until the opportune moment to demand payment for past hubris), suddenly the bills for Obama’s six years of folly are coming due for the American people.

 

When a president occasionally fails to tell the truth, you get a scandal like the monitoring of the Associated Press reporters. When a president serially fails to tell the truth, you get that plus the scandals involving the IRS, the NSA, the VA, Benghazi, and too many others to mention.

 

 

The same is true abroad. The American public hardly noticed when Obama recklessly withdrew every peacekeeper from Iraq. Did he not boast of “ending the Iraq War”? It did not mind when the U.S. posted dates for withdrawal from Afghanistan. Trashing all the Bush–Cheney anti-terrorism protocols, from Guantanamo to renditions, did not make much sense, when such policies had worked and, in fact, were of use to Obama himself. But again, most Americans took no note. Apparently the terrorists did, however, and they regrouped even as the president declared them “on the run.”

 

{snip}

 

But after six years of all that, our allies have got the message that they are on their own, our enemies that there are few consequences to aggression, and neutrals that joining with America does not mean ending up on the winning side. The result is that the Middle East we have known since the end of World War II has now vanished

Let's see what Barack did today........................

 

 

No time for a presidential trip to the border, but time for three fundraisers and a trip to a brewery to shoot some pool!

"I was furious about the humanitarian crisis on our border until the president bought pizza."

 

He also met with Rick Perry...but I guaran-damn-tee you won't see pictures of that. 'Cause, y'know, he wasn't there for a photo op.

 

 

Brought to you by the same people who thought "My Pet Goat" was irresponsible and pandering.

Did you hear his press conference today? It was pretty funny. He essentially has nothing left. Just babbling at this point.
