Just Warm Enough for Golf, Obama Back on the Course

What the hell is wrong with this man?!

As long as he’s slapping the hell out of golf balls, he’s not slapping the hell out of the economy. Let’s leave him alone with his driver.

Those 30 hr. work weeks of mis-information and outright lying is quite stressful. People thought Bush did not work hard. This man needs a vacation from his vacation.

Ya can’t fix stupid!!

Isn’t there anyone around him who’ll say “You know, you might want to cool it with the golf a bit”?

Listen folks. At the press conference Friday Obama told us all ht was doing a great job. Libya…studying it, Japan…wow big shake up huh. Oil production is up..Not because of any policy of his but it is up. The budget…well he made a 2012 budget his own folks say is not sustainable.
But darn folks. It is tee time and basketball on the tv later. Life is good when you are king.

Hey, if I had issued a statement yesterday in the aftermath of the Japan earthquake that said our relationship was “unshakable” I’d probably want to hide on a golf course, too. Largest quake in the nation’s history, hundreds of people missing, and he says unshakable. REALLY?

Obama has the media and so call jounalist in his pocket. Plus the stupid people that fall for their reporting, it’s no wonder that he gets 4 more years. Oh just saying that I want to throw up!

61 rounds of golf in 25 months?
25 games of basketball.
Marthas Vineyards and Hawaii vacations,
Aspen, Spain trips for the first lady.
Let them eat cake,
obamanation

Don, I don’t like Obama any more than most Americans who actually pay attention, but the lightning strike comment was out of line. Not cool!
Never act like the left.

A word doesn’t exist that would accurately describe my feelings toward this disgrace we call our President. I’m simply all out of adjectives. Can anyone help here?
How about “demented charlatan”?

@Wes, that was redc1c4

Affirmative action president needs to be thankful for the inferior schools systems in our country… How else would you explain the fact that there are so many stupid people buying his pseudo intelligence spill!

@day of reckoning
Low-rent, narcissistic, megalomaniac

What do you people expect? A large majority of Democrats still approve of his job performance. 90% of blacks still like him. At least 40% of independents have a favorable opinion of the guy. And we have a lazy, corrupt media that knows their fate is tied to his(they essentially put him in the White House), so they’ll never turn on him or even ask tough questions at press conferences or in interviews.
By that rationale, why wouldn’t he enjoy a nice round of golf on a sunny Saturday while Japan is literally melting down? Like it’s gonna hurt his poll numbers on Monday? Until the folks in this country who lean left wake the F up and demand some accountability from the people they elect(you know, instead of cheering them on when they leave Wisconsin for 3 1/2 weeks), then this is what you’re gonna get. Don’t champion mediocrity and then act surprised when the country is mired in it.

God help us. Pray for our Country………

I just read another story on how a Police Dept. lowered it’s testing standards in order to get more blacks to pass. I am guessing that is why Obama’s approval is so high among the black community. It was said to be under his order that these standards be lowered. How proud the black community must be right now. To know that he understands you all just can’t do any better, and the bar must be set lower so you all can pass a test.

“Even as his administration and the U.S. military help Japan recover…” Really? What exactly is his admin and the military doing to help? Are they airlifting food and water to the millions who have none? Emergency generators? Medical supplies? Is the military helping recover bodies? What are they doing?
So far as I can find out…talking, and lying. It’s all they are good at.
At least if he’s golfing the only thing he’s lying about is his score

The immates have taken over the asylum.
o needs to go.

Bill H, you crack me up. Yep, I caught that “unshakable” statement, too. How the press would have howled had it come from, say, GW Bush.
Tahman, I loved this post. Thanks! It’s a crying shame the president felt it appropriate to hit the links for a second weekend in a row. I shook my head last weekend, but this weekend? Things are even worse.

I’m sure they can reach by phone if anything important occurs?

Maybe now that a kidnapping occurred of an Arizona professor – an ecological and environmental anthropologist – Obama will drop his golf clubs take the border situation seriously and come running to the rescue of one of his own. Except even still, I’m not holding my breath.
. . . “Fore!”

I ask one question only – what would the media say if GWB had played golf while Japan was into it’s second day of hell; while the Middle East was on fire and while his OWN countrymen were suffering acute financial stress/unemployment/hunger?
Obama is heartless and couldn’t care less about anyone except himself – he is a total narcissist.

Tahman Bradley makes him sound like a little kid. Oh wait…

Remember this when the next one hits this continent. He’ll most likely be playing golf then too….

meant to say 0.1% (not 1/2%) unemployment drop is not significant.

SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL SAID,:IN A WORLD OF BIG EVENTS,WE HAVE LITTLE MEN. ENOUGH SAID.

With all this golf, is his game getting any better? That is a silly question I know, but usually someone who plays the game as badly as him quits….he really stinks…I don’t get it. Maybe he is just getting away from Michelle…I would. The world is burning and Obama is playing golf. GWB quit golf the last 4 years. He is a good golfer too. Priorities…sad.

Hamid Karzai has just requested that all NATO and US troops withdraw from Afghanistan. How will the leader of the free world respond? Will he perhaps issue a statement from the 18th green?

It’s total arrogance and narcissim on parade.

Probably still grappling with gay marriage too. Must be rough.

Meanwhile ol’ Newt is in Iowa trying to blame his chronic infidelities on overwork, Romney has supposedly been modeling tight pants, and Sarah Palin’s approval numbers continue to slide further into the tank every time she opens her big mouth.
Keep up the desperate effort Obama bashers, you’ve got a very long road ahead.

So…the Middle East is melting down, Japan lay in ruins, obama has done his best to sabotage domestic drilling and LIED about it at the presser (and the media lets him get away with it), he has even the democrats on his case for lack of leadership on the debt/deficit/spending…yet he has time to party down and hit the links…and look at the way this ABC is framed.
How much longer will the media shield and protect this fraud? How much longer will they SUPPRESS and IGNORE stories about this poser?

USS Tortuga, USS Blue Ridge, USS Essex, USS Ronald Reagan and more are speeding toward Sendai this very moment — more than Dubya ever did for the victims of Katrina. But now I suppose the righties will complain that Obama only cares about Japan. Hey, righties, in case you forgot already, read what you just wrote about Obama being lazy (yes, just move your eyes up the screen and try to process the little letters). Obama gets more good work done in an hour than Bush ever could in a month. Alas, our good president is still trying to get us out of the enormous dung-hole that Bush got us into.

Put. The. Kool-aid. Down.

Why is it evertime Obama is
criticize, like the Obama
supporters, they bring in Sarah
Palin. If she runs I will vote
for her. We, the American need to
get this circus out of town.
God Bless America, we need it.

Obama sure knows how to play and party. Golf last weekend, golf today, a White House party last Wednesday, a Motown party the week before. One would think Obama was elected to party and play, not lead our country!

…at least he’s able to get around the military course quickly these days, since those for whom it was built are otherwise occupied in large numbers.

JPMinNC -more than Dubya ever did for the victims of Katrina.
Being ex-navy I followed the USN’s response to Katrina. And you are dead wrong. The USS Iwo Jima, an amphib loaded with copters, sailed right into the back of the storm as it passed over NOLA. It was an amazing operation.
For more of what the USN did at NOLA -
- More than 9,790 Americas were rescued or evacuated by the 50+ Navy aircraft from deployed ships, as well as NAS Pensacola and Atlanta.
- 17 Navy ships on station including Iwo Jima, Bataan and USNS Comfort, which treated 1,000 patients.
More than 3,400 Seabees deployed to the region and helped clearing roads, disposing of debris and building shelters.
- Ship’s small boats performed 380 evacuations, 28 MEDEVACS and six rescues. They delivered 68,900 pound of food and 113,000 pounds of water. Onboard aircraft flew 1,730 sorties.
- The ships performed 380 evacuations, 28 MEDEVACS and six rescues. They delivered 68,900 pound of food and 113,000 pounds of water.
- The Navy took care of the more than 800 Navy families who lost everything.
Don’t let the facts hamper your hate.

I wonder, is he the first bureaucratic president in our history? He’s like one of those jerks at the DMV who shuts the window at 5:00 PM sharp, regardless of how many people are in line and no matter how long they have been waiting. I would like to let him know that it is perfectly clear to most of us that he is a lazy, not too intelligent, affirmative action hire who cares nothing about this country. He does not get to the office before 10:00am. He does not work weekends. He takes vacations no matter what is going on. If only we could fire him for his dereliction of duty. But alas, the unions, the clueless, and his fellow travelers will protect him to the bitter end.

The Middle East in flames, devastation in Japan, gasoline quickly approaching $4.00 a gallon, unemployment still rising, the economy in the tank and Barack Hussein Obama hits the golf course again. Imagine if George Bush acted like this. Obama wants the perks, but is clueless as to doing the job. Maybe the media will finally look at him for what he is, an empty suit!

@ ew-3 who posted Mar 12, 2011 7:06:22 PM
EXCELLENT post…too bad the media never told America about this…thank you for your service!!!
Omitting news stories is just as bad as lying about the news – the mainstream media has little ethics.

Good for our President to release the Stress of the job! Afterall attempting to fix the huge problems created by the Republican DICTATORS decade after decade, an ally’s natural disaster and the WAR MONGERS wanting another war..I need a President Who has the guts and calmness to deal with it all. Have a Great day, Mr. Presidnt, because the republican Dictators Wants this country ran NOT by the people but BY the Corporations. They want DUMBNESS and Uneducated “minions”. They can afford to send their children to college, that way the line of “inheritance” could continue to “them”….everybody else will be their “slaves”, including their “dumb” followers.

I hope his golf game is better than his leadership skillset.
But alas, he will be re-elected. The PR campaign is Obama’s strong suit, while his executive management skills are his weak suit. The press will remain misty eyed and in awe of the image while ignoring the lack of substance. 2012 will be Hope and Change 2.0. Whoever the GOP runs will get crushed by the main stream media.

Excuses excuses
The GOP field will get crushed because they’re all so lame.

Goldman Sachs, GE, AOL Time Warner, Microsoft, Ford, Walt Disney etc are all in the Dems column
—————
If you’re talking about campaign contributions the employees of these companies favor Democrats, the companies themselves do not.

Oh dear Raven, the jig is up. All it took was for Americans to see videos of the Wisconsin protesters live and in action. Those are Mr. Obama’s people. Unless you are one of them yourself, you are in for a rude awakening. He will break your heart dear.

This president isn’t fit or smart enough to be dog catcher and he’s almost as big a liar as Bill Clinton.

This president does’nt give a darn about this country, he’s so full of himself he does’nt really care about anyone but himself and he’s a almost as big a liar as Bill Clinton. Obamo is taking this county right down the toilet.

Obama is shameful, but he has no sense of shame. There’s something very wrong with him.

Obama is a lazy, slacker of course. But his staff must be full of spineless yes-people not to warn him this type of behavior is reputation poison.

For my part I never claimed no corporate executives are Democrats. However it would be really revealing if you could show that most of them donate more heavily to Democratic candidates. I find that highly unlikely.

The state has jurisdiction during the first 24 hours of a crisis like this
=====================
But who has jurisdiction after that? Those people were stuck there for days. I’m not trying to exonerate the Mayor and the Governor for their mistakes, but people sure make a big effort to exonerate Bush.

The state is still responsible. They put these people there. I know where I live (MA) where we have competent local emergency management the state runs things. LA had no emergency management. That is not the fault of the feds. That is the fault of the state.
The mayor of NO was/is a lot like ‘H’. He was/is a cheap empty suit that would rather play golf.

It must be nice to have a low intensity job which allows you to play a lot of golf…

Obama is “right” in one regard – he has no meaningful knowledge, skills or interests of use in resolving the world’s problems. In fact, the less he does, the better the impact. Not to say that a competent caring leader couldn’t make a world of difference, BUT we are talking Obama here – an arrogant self-serving twit with a desire to “transform” (aka destroy) the USA. Better he fritter away his time on the links and money on lavish parties and vacations, than engage in actual “work” that would more likely than not, be to our detriment. 2012 cannot come soon enough!

It’s time to crush the main stream media.

obama only cares about himself! it’s sooo obvious! is so stupid that he doesn’t realize the perception of him having a good time over and over and over again while everyone else is struggling!! worst ever!!! while on the course all the time he’s trying to devise a scheme to obtain a fake long-form birth certificate!!

With the rising cost of gasoline that our incompetent president fails to do anything about, I just wonder how many cars were transporting him and his entourage to the golf course? If W. would have done that during a crisis such as Japan is going thru, wow.. the libs would have been all over news with critic!

@ skip – you miss the point – the people who refused evacuation and/or did not have the opportunity to board those yellow buses that never came (but the buses flooded eventually), or the democrat governor who refused Bush’s request and delayed calling out the National Guard – Hurricane Katrina was a failure of the local and state DEMOCRAT leadership. Bush failed in that he did not stick up for himself and his administration against the all-out opportunistic politically-motivated media attack.

Don’t worry about playing golf “O” In 2013 you’ll be able to play every day! LOL BTW guys, don’t worry about our “President” taking valuable time away from leading the Free World. He’s just a PUPPET of the Elitist “Shadow Gov’t” They are the real bosses.
This guy couldn’t lead you to the bathroom!

Golf, parties, gold, parties. This man definitely love the “aura” of being president more than the job.
Moomar Quadafi is gaining ground, the middle east is falling apart, our japanese friends are in dire straights (complete with a nuclear disaster), the this President seeks to party as much as possible.
I guess the democrat senators from Wisconsin feel vindicated for walking off the job as well.
Shameful

Bush gave up golf during hs term because he felt overcome with guilt. playing while soldiers lost their lives and other world crisis’s. On the other hand, Obama seems determined to perfect his game.

I’d just as soon see the president golfing 3 times a week. The more time he spends on the golf course the less damage he can do. And God knows he has caused enough damage to our country.

Does this president ever work???

Are you kidding me?!! The Man/Boy is such a disgrace to this country – I cannot stand it anymore!
Everything going on from here to Japan – and this guy plays golf.

Let him play golf. Everyone needs a break. He probably does a lot of thinking while swinging. As for the parties….well….it reminds me of royalty. France, Russia…

I hope he plays golf every day for the next two years, at least things will not get WORSE.

The lastest media spin is that Obama is “above the fray.”
above the fray- 3 dictionary results [ar-uh-guhnt]
–adjective
1. making claims or pretensions to superior importance or rights; overbearingly assuming; insolently proud: an arrogant public official.
[ley-zee]
adjective, -zi·er, -zi·est, verb, -zied, -zy·ing.
–adjective
1. averse or disinclined to work, activity, or exertion; indolent.
2. causing idleness or indolence: a hot, lazy afternoon.
That about sums it up.

He might as well hit the links – maybe he can see some improvement in his golf game since he last touched a club…everytime he touches the economy it’s a triple bogey (or worse).
We’d just like to avoid taking an ‘x’ on the next hole, ‘Mr. President’.

Libya in revolution, the middle east in turmoil, families being murdered in israel, pirates off africa, our economy in a meltdown to equal the reactors in Japan, and what does obama do? Why, go golfing of course!!! Comparisons to Nero are quite apt. At least he cant do further damage to our country or the world while on the links.

rome burns and Nero fiddles

………..and the 5th estate says nothing.

If you designed an insensitive lout, what would it look like? I think we know.

Obama = partying, insensitive, lazy, what’s in it for me, worst President EVER. Epic failure, country destroyer, nightmare beyond belief, job killer. Vote out this monster in 2012!!!!

Early to putt and early to drive, makes a prez elitist and arrogant, surprise!

The world burns and Emperor Nero Obama fiddles. What an unparalleled embarrassment this manchild is.

Hey this poor excuse of a president knows what his doing. First he knows tpohat he is a one term president. Second, the less he does as leader and plays more golf or parties he will yank the tail of the right to get outlanish statements thrown at him, /then the left media will defend him saying that the right is attacking him unjustly.

And right after this it’s off to the courts, then a night on the town NYC, then a couple days in Martha Vineyard… after that hard work he’s gonna need a an all expense paid vacation in Hawaii…
You people out there who “support” this guy… do you support him because he’s a Democrat and NOT a Republican? It that reason enough? Because I can’t imagine anyone supporting him “honestly” on substance.

We elected a Tiger Woods wannabee instead of a serious President. God help us!

Thanks for helping prove Deez right Lorenzo, your admission, by calling the middle class losers, only compliments all the efforts by Chris Walker and others to energize the Democrats like nothing else. And with nothing but a field of bozos vying for the Republican nomination and 2012 right around the corner the timing couldn’t be better.

This is not how Ron Paul would be showing the world the American peoples concern.

right…..because McCain / Palin would have done any better.

This administration is turning into a nightmare. Obama, WHO REPRESENTS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, amuses himself endlessly for all the world to see while our close allies, the Japanese, are in utter anguish, Libyans are being slaughtered and begging for help, and an Israeli family was brutally killed in their home leading to heightened turmoil. Obama continues to vote “present” as he did in the Illinois legislature and the media runs interference for him. Befitting a Community Organizer, his only actions are designed to agitate the citizens of this country pitting one group against another, making every effort to break the back of the U.S. Constitution so its words are meaningless and powerless to protect us anymore, all so he can “fundamentally transform” America. He bows to foreign leaders who are stiff-spined in representing their countries. All the while, he stands back and enjoys all the perks of office, and simply creates turmoil in an attempt to destroy our form of government. Can our Republic long withstand this type of “leader”? And yet, the media says nothing. Don’t they have children? . . . Are they so poorly educated or enamored of being with the “in crowd” that it is worth losing the freest, most exceptional country and system of government known to man?

I wonder what would interfere with his pursuit of pleasure while the world is in chaos?

Somehow I doubt that anyone begrudges him times of relaxation, but it would be nice if he seemed to be working in between those times. In every crisis during his administration so far, it looks as if he is watches from a distance and then goes on a vacation/plays golf/attends or hosts a party. The result is that our country, to all appearances (see how kind I am trying to be???), does not have a leader but a relaxer-in-chief. Instead of a confident, reassuring leadership figure, we get clips of him teeing off or bowing to a world leader, and we’re left wondering if he has any leadership abilities at all. It is indeed, a very sad chapter in our country’s history.

Skip, yea, the right is energizing the liberal base. You’re only problem is that you’re losing the middle, too. I read your comment on teachers and my response is if money were the answer, our kids would lead the world in education, like they did 40 years ago before education was nationalized. I’m tired of my taxes going up and my kids test scores going down to support and education system that FAILS all of us.

High gas prices and no jobs and this man is out playing golf again. Then he’ll get into the taxpayer fueled Air Force One and go fundraising and campaigning. I can’t wait until 2012 to get rid of this egotistical person before he does anymore damage here and abroad.

David-What the hell do you think the Tea Party protesters were doing?! By putting themselves out there, they have been vilified, demeaned and insulted by the left and a large portion of the American people.Gee, why do YOU think more people aren’t out there?!

if money were the answer, our kids would lead the world in education
=====================
Money is always the answer for everything else with you guys….but our education system on the other hand is supposed to be like the Peace Corps or something.

Come on you Obama bashers. You are so wrong.
Obama knows how to do a lot of things.
He knows how to operate the auto industry, the banks, Wall Street, small and large businesses, keep the oceans from rising, the health care system and how to create shovel ready jobs. He even knows how big the portions should be on plates when we eat out.
He learned how to all these things while dipping ice cream at Baskin-Robbins and as a community organizer.
We are blessed to have him as leader. And thanks to the Democrats and the main stream media for helping us to elect him as President.

My first thought when the Japanese quake hit was: How is Obama and the left going to use this diaster to raise our taxes and restrict our freedom even more
========================
-this message brought to you by the Party of Greed and Fear.

Can’t wait until he’s gone for good!

Nero had his fiddle – Obama has golf.

Can’t wait for this guy to be ousted on the next election!

Impostor in chief at it again. The middle east burns, gas at $4.50/gal, 9.0 Earthquake and nuclear reactors in critical states and 1.6 trillion deficit this year and a 14+Trillion debt mounting and the dollar nearing a crisis, and this man celebrates because he and his rat vermin friends who are enemies of freedom, liberty, constitution and country are going to use this crisis to demonize nuclear power and push the communist green agenda. But at the end of the day, this Obama character is the enemy within, he is dangerous and anti American and his regime must be stopped.

He Michelle, and their kids are like children at a rich granny’s house. Stuffing their faces with goodies. Night in New York on Air One, Paris bistro, Spanish holiday,Aspen,Hamptons. If they knew better they would be ashamed. Having ripped off Chicago all their lives they know no shame. Pigs at the trough!!!!!!Pigs everyone of them!!!
Bill T.
California

SO nice he played golf while the rest of the country tried to figure out where they next meal and job would come from and the rest of the world is in turmoil Wish I had a job that gave unlimited travel and vactions regular parties unlimited spending and I really dont have to do a thing other then play golf an b ball

President Teddy Roosevelt said: “speak softly and carry a big stick.” He for workers rights, but also for American business interest abroad.
Over 100 years later, Obama says:”I bet I can reach the 4th green by lunch.” This as our allies suffer earthquake and tsunamis.
One cannot be President, enjoying multiple vacations, rounds of golf, while the world explodes around you. While turmoil in the Middle East, natural disasters and gargantuan budget deficits plague the public.
It’s akin to Nero fiddling, while Rome burned. Sorry Mr. President, GIVE up your rounds of golf. GET to the office, make phone calls, LOOK like your working, even if you’re not.

By the way, the people who work in the MEDIA make their living in this Country. I am sure they have a stake in the future…some of them even have kids! When is the Media going to stop protecting Obama and start reporting and writing opinions on the complete failure he has been and the damage his policies are and will do for generations???

Oh right. I made an earlier post about Obama getting to work, LOOK like he’s trying to do something.
Maybe it is BEST that he stay on the golf course. THE less he does, the better.
Maybe during his re-election campaign he can explain why:
1. HIS budget deficits are so much larger than Bush’s.
2. Explain why he is for terrorist rights, and Islamic groups being able to CRY before Rep. King’s committee, but if a Tea Party patriot tries to have a protest, they are “racist, bigots, who don’t understand government”?
GOD FORBID we have another terror attack that is nuclear in nature. He could then explain why AVERAGE Americans had to subject themselves HERR GOERING/Napalatono’s Gestapo, but didn’t focus on ISLAMIC terrorist who are AMERICANS. But hey, lets not profile.
PLUS: SHOW THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

Lesson in MEDIA MANIPULATION 101:
Katrina vs. Haiti:
Bush fights LA governor to get relief aid and national guard sent in. Finally gets help to people in need and media slams him for it focusing on the Superdome debacle for the next five years.
Obama sends Clinton to Haiti for a short time, media elites help pull a few people from collapsed buildings, then everyone wraps it up and calls it a day. After a month or two nothing, even though people are still suffering there.
Indonesia vs. Japan
Bush mobilizes the military to help Indonesia after the tsunami, US troops and aid visibly there within days. Media goes out of there way to find some angle to spin it as another Bush debacle.
Japan is devastated, worse disaster since WW2 and nuclear meltdowns happening. US has bases there but still no visible response. Meanwhile Obama has basketball parties, media elites and Obama have high priced posh parties that are closed off to all the little people, and he hits the golf course for another round. Media elites have nothing to say, because they are living it up too. All you little people can go eat your cake, they own you and they know it. har har

Everyone deserves some down time – to exercise, to reflect, to listen to the voice inside, to have fun. Obama deserves this too, yet it would be nice if we could observe him working and leading as well. How can someone of supposed high intelligence stand by and “do” nothing or inconsequential things. How can he allow the justice department run by Eric Holder to require the lowering of scores in Dayton Ohio because blacks are failing. Why doesn’t he lead? He has done more toward discrediting blacks than anyone I can remember in my sixty years of watching the political landscape. We ought to be listening to the Thomas Sowell’s of the world, those black men who have substance as well as intelligence The liberal elite media who got him elected seem to carry guilt for being white, and any black man in the presidency is good enough to ease their guilt. I’m sure he’s a nice guy, but we need a leader.

When I was young I used to be a very avid golfer (played or practiced 150 days+ per year). However, I now own a small business. Given that an 18 hole round of golf requires 4-5 hours (not to mention the time getting to and from the course), I find it extremely difficult now to play more than 10 – 15 rounds per year. It’s just hard to justify devoting 5-6 hours per round when there are so many other important competing business time demands. My job/business is fairly inconsequential in the scheme of things. I can’t fathom how someone leading the largest economy in the world could possibly find time to play even a couple of rounds of golf particularly when the country is in crisis. I’d call it dereliction of duty. He needs to go. NOW!!!

“Yeah right, like the economy was just vibrant when Obama took over.”
How was the economy, our national debt, our annual deficit, the poverty rate, and the unemployment rate when Pelosi and Reid started running the Legislative Branch back in January 2007 compared to now? Wasn’t Obama a Senator back then?

How was the economy, our national debt, our annual deficit, the poverty rate, and the unemployment rate when Pelosi and Reid started running the Legislative Branch
=====================
-A further attempt to foment the ridiculous notion that the Legislative Branch could have immediately reversed 6 years of Republican policy and fixed the housing bubble. By the same token America was safe until George Bush allowed 9/11.

From Iran to Egypt to Libya, he has shown the world that he is terrified of actually taking a stand and making a decision–he seems paralyzed
========================
He doesn’t seem paralyzed to anybody but his dedicated critics. At least he has the sense to know better than get our military interminably stuck in another potentially unstable Middle Eastern nation.

Ace of Spades sums it up pretty well:
“In the cases of uprisings in Iran and Libya, rather than show American leadership, he once again voted present and said little and did even less. He left a leadership void in world leadership now being filled, thankfully, by the British and the French.
“All of these cases illustrate that Obama really isn’t bringing anything to the table. He is not contributing to the most important questions facing the country – he does not offer ideas, or support for particular plans. He lets other people do the deciding, and then he embraces whatever consensus others have created.
A Republican candidate for President should ask: For $400,000 per year in salary, what are we actually getting? Is he actually doing his job? Couldn’t anyone do what Obama has done? Put anyone in the office, someone unqualified and well over their heads, and they’d do the same thing, sit back, let other people handle it.
(H/T: Hot Air )”

someone should ask Obama how much a gallon of gas is. Remember when they tried to show how bush was out of touch because he didn’t know the price of milk? Obama can get away with anything. Pretty scary.

It is good to be King and leave your carbon foot print

James: Please stop smoking Obama’s crack. Obamacare is hugely unpopular with people of all persuasions. Poor people will be particularly affected, but Obama’s state-controlled MSM conveniently ignores this fact.

I don’t hear conservatives clamoring to go into Libya
======================
Oh no? Well what are they clamoring for Obama to do about Libya then?

I can’t believe I used to like this guy. What an arrogant jerk. You would think he could put off his golf game for a day and appear a bit more concerned for a close ally that went through a major disaster.

I’m perfectly comfortable paying higher taxes to break the insurance industries’ grip on healthcare. I’m confident I’ll actually be paying less in the long-run.

I wonder what Marx, Lenin, and Stalin would do if they knew that their apprentice spent so much time playing this Capitalist game of golf? On the other hand, I would like to see him ‘STAY on THE COURSE” for the next 2 years. Can we arrange a Ground Hog Day experience for Obammy?

When Pelosi and Reid took over unemployment was 5.5% and big spender Bush’s biggest deficit when he left was $161 Billion. After two years of Pelosi and Reid unemployment 7.0% and after two years of Obama unemployment 10% and Deficit 3.7 Trillion dollars. Where has all of this money gone, things aren’t any better here. Obama’s a crook, who only cares about himself.

: Skip:Oh my gosh, Please do not tell me you would vote for this disgusting person again, IF he and Palin are the nominees for Pres? For me, no one can be any worse in that office. I am so concerned about the 2012 election. There is No telling what he can do to us by then. The main problem, I see, is that the people that voted for him before just cannot see what harm he has done. What would it take?

Man, does this guy have a job?
Oh right, is supposed to be the president…
He has “hope” alright – hope his swing gets better.

This guy is the quintessential elitist liberal. He just knows better than everyone else… read his posts, he a comment for everyone. Of course his ideas are right and everyone else who thinks otherwise is just plain old wrong. And he’d gladly silence those critics, which I’m sure he’s all for shutting down the likes of Rush, Sean and Fox. Of course he shares company with very few other “educated people”. That’s why they –namely liberals– need the votes of the uneducated masses which their education system has created.

He can play at being president; he can play at being caring; the former two he can’t do, but he can play 18 holes of golf because that’s what he can do best!
What should frighten most, however, is the ‘shadow government’ that is carrying out his disastrous plans: participating in the Middle East unrest, plotting to see gas prices at the same level as Europe, contributing to terrorist groups in Israel just to get a Palestinian state in place, etc., etc.
Why do Americans expect something from the person that he has no intentions of delivering? He doesn’t plan to ‘lead’ — no, he plans to dictate.

Google Pravda American capitalism gone with a whimper.
Chilling.

If you voted for Obama the first time you had better ask yourself why. Identify your error so you are not doomed to repeat it.

Flat out lie. Maybe you missed the thousands of people rescued by the Coast Guard and National Guard, dropping them off at the Superdome where command centers were set up IN ADVANCE of the storm. There was a working chain-of-command in place… unlike DEMOCRAT’s Nagin and Blanco who absolutely FAILED in executing their emergency plans which would have moved MOST of these people to further inland. INSTEAD thousands were left behind that rescuers then had to deal with once the storm had passed. Many were in the SUPERDOME where they were at least SAFE rather than being left to fend for themselves in the flooded and damaged city. These rescue authorities FOCUSED on continuing to save those stranded rather than ordering Happy Meals for the DEMOCRAT dependents stuck in the SUPERDOME for a couple of days.

callmedelusional …Please explain that to the 17 naval personnel who were exposed to radiation…Obama sending in relief help with NO thought to possible radioactive disaster…50,000 military personnel and their families (kids) remain in the area with NO thought of evac…And he is on the golf course trying to lower his handicap…..Ya, you betcha, he’s a real treasure alrighty…..

@Scooter Van Neuter Nope, sorry, that wasn’t a lie and easily verifiable with Google.
For Chertoff’s ignorance, Google: Chertoff NPR Convention Center
For Brown’s ignorance, Google: Michael Brown CNN Zahn
Bush-bashers do so out of knowledge, Obama-bashers do so out of ignorance.

Typos and copy/paste mistakes ahoy — That’s “GK” rather than “CK”. This comment format setup blows.

@Parallex View Google can be your friend as well: “According to Cmdr. Jeff A. Davis, a spokesman for the American Seventh Fleet in Japan, the personnel had gone through a decontamination scrub, after which no further contamination was detected.
“‘They received very, very low levels of contamination,’ Commander Davis said in a telephone interview with The New York Times from Japan early Monday.
“‘It certainly is not cause for alarm,’ he said. ‘It is something we have to watch very carefully and make sure we are able to monitor, and to mitigate against this environmental hazard.’
“The contaminated military personnel, who had been aboard three helicopters flying through a radioactive plume from a damaged nuclear power plant, had received the amount of radiation equal to one month’s natural background radiation from the sun, rocks or soil.”

@gk Sorry dude, but I did my extensive research into Katrina a long time ago, and I used original sources. In the case of CNN or NPR, both Brown and Chertoff admitted their cluelessness live on those outlets and the video and transcripts from them function as primary sources. As for your reference to Lou Dolinar’s article, it’s just poorly researched right wing rubbish (which is actually a redundant statement.) The was an initial burst of activity by the Coast Guard and the like, but when it became obvious that a some helicopter rooftop rescues wasn’t exactly address the bulk of the problems NOLA was facing, the plan that was supposedly in place meant a much broader federal response. But that’s where things fell apart. The media did indeed miss a lot, but it was their usual random lack of research and detail — like for instance all those infamous submerged school buses would have been totally inadequate for evacuating the types of people who mostly were not able to leave on their own: poor families and the elderly. NOLA is in the middle of nowhere so the evacuation routes were running 20+ hours long in some cases, and those buses had no toilet facilities. These are the details that the media really botched up, and not how Bush and his people were grossly incompetent, which actually was true.

Must say callmebc…you have to be the very first left leaner I have read that gives our military the benefit of the doubt…I am concerned that the government of Japan is being less than honest regarding the magnitude of the problem Don’t think our people are being fed honest info…100,000 evac…passing out PhosIodine…calling in NRC for help and Obama appearing to ignore all the signs…” I am not spending time on the golf course, I am investing time in the golf course.” WOW…

What a surprise! Obama is self-centered and self-serving. I can’t imagine.

Ridiculous to quote the Bible as support for the very racist attitudes it condemns.

I should have my @ss kicked for actually voting for this man. Here we are in the midst of a worldwide disaster unmeasured by any previous catastrophe and our President goes out to play 18 holes of golf. This man is supposed to represent our nation for goodness sake!! What he does demonstrate, yet again, is that he has zero capacity for real leadership, humility or compassion. This latest show of Oarrogance is much more than just embarrassing, it is purely disgraceful. I can’t wait to get this president onto the golf course – permanently.
-Wouldn’t make the same mistake in 2012.

Strange…that excuse never worked for Bush according to the lefties, why should it now work for oBama?

What an absolute clown. It’s disgraceful and he really doesn’t give a damn about ANYONE but himself. He’s full of blarney.

Playing 18 holes of golf once a week to balance the most stressful job in the country??? I admire his ability to keep himself in balance. When was the last time all you critics gave up your weekend after a stressful week at work?

I normally wouldn’t care if he was playing golf during the weekend. But, the fact that it was the weekend of the Japan earthquake and tsunami, with the nation facing a possible nuclear melt-down, it seemed bizarre and ridiculous that the leader of the free-world was relaxing on the greens as the world was literally falling apart at the seams!

Excellant blog entry Bradley.
This needs to be headline news in all seriousness.

Tahman Bradley, I give you much respect. You report it as it is.
I do not care if Mr. Obama is the first half black president. The only colors he need to represent are red, white, and blue… and greens. Fore!
Mulligan?

It must be nice to be able to get out and play golf in between life and death decisions concerning our military, people in distant lands, and our favorite dictators.
