Barrack "Jimmah Carter" Obama is a total and complete absolute failure.
He couldn't pour piss out of a boot, if the instructions were written on the heel.
To understand the oil spill, one must first understand the actions and plans of Obama and his puppetmaster, Soros…..its easy if you can read and understand English.
Try it: http://69.84.25.250/blogger/post/Obama-Boss-Georg...
Before you declare failure you must first understand intent.
Hussein's goal was to exploit this tragedy and use it as a political weapon. What else would explain his reluctance to look for a solution or accept help from other nations for nearly two months not to mention his obstruction towards Louisiana's rescue efforts.
I will say it again, Barack Hussein Obama is an enemy of the state; how this seditious shitbag got elected will be pondered for decades but as of this November we start are undoing the damage culminating with the removal of the traitor in 2012.
Good one. Why leave a good crisis go unused when you are gunning for the Big Oil companies and pushing ridiculous national green energy schemes? I suspect the Dems are loving the oil spill. Two months into this, where are the Feds?
"how this seditious shitbag got elected will be pondered for decades"
I'd say that answer is plainly obvious. A slick PR campaign, a soros owned and operated main stream press, and illegal, overseas campaign cash BOUGHT him the presidency. Throw in a deluded, uneducated voting block and presto; you have a "progressive" douche bag as "president."
How could Obama possible 'understand' failure…he has NEVER accomplished anything worthwhile in his entire life! Never held a job, never been held accountable for anything he has ever said or done…he is the most useless, crass excuse of a man I have ever seen! And NO it has NOTHING to do with the color of his skin!! It has everything to do with LACK of character, lack of class and most of all lack of compassion for his fellow human race!!
er throw a piss in a boot either…..bloody useless. Lose the hat, buckarooo!
To solve the problem, in the words of "Galaxy Quest's" Dr Lazarus…"You're going to have to understand it's MOTIVATION….what does it WANT…what is it trying to DO!"
Alas, like PETER….peter….peter…QUINCY…quincy…quincy…TAGERT,
OBAMA…obama…obama HAS NEVER BEEN SERIOUS ABOUT THE CRAFT!!!
))))))))))))
How long, ya think, before the public, as they watch footage of the destruction of the Gulf Coast, interspersed with the dead end, no plan in sight, feeding of our young soldiers, one life a day to the FAILED POLICY MACHINE in Afghanistan, gets a belly full and lashes out with more than words or threats of a November electoral rout, John?
Seriously. There really are tipping points.
Love reading the heated rhetoric from the Obama haters. Let's see: which President had the big oil companies write their own rules and regulations in secret at the start of his Presidency? Which oil company refused to follow the warnings of its own workers that the oil rig was not being properly used and that the drilling could be a problem? Which oil company did not spend the $500,000 (rather paltry compared to $20B I'd say) on a protective device that might have stopped the blow-out? Which President actually visited the Gulf four times to lend support and who got the $20B from BP so those who were damaged would not have to wait as the folks have since the Exxon spill in Alaska? See, you Obama haters cannot stand the fact he is articulate, speaks in full sentences, has actually succeeded in all he has attempted ( some recent President failed in all of his endeavors), has a sterling family life, does not philander, can actually hit a three point jump shot, and thinks before he speaks. Does he walk on water? No, but he does not deserve the narrow minded, ad hominum attacks based on his color, race, name or whatever his religion or non-religion. Oh, yes, I am a life long Republican who was a member of the Bush-Quayle Presidential Round Table and who ran the local McCain for President campaign in 2004. I'd love to see serious criticism and not this blathering bombast being unleashed on our President.
JohnK, I think you hit it right on….
Obama, has on his door at the oval office" Gone golfing". Need we say any more?
ROFL!!! Two birds with one stone

GOD bless America
Barack Obama: I bla bla me bla bla me bla I bla myself bla I bla me bla bla bla me bla myself bla I bla me bla bla myself bla me bla I bla bla bla bla I bla myself me me me…
Meanwhile…
Gulf oil disaster…
Nashville floods…
Iran gets the bomb…
Stock Market tanks…
Businesses failing…
Illegals killing Americans…
Unemployed numbers increase…
The Feds missed another terrorist bomber
That all depends on what you call a tipping point. And what you mean by lashing out. If we think in terms of polling, we're way past the tipping point, especially among the voting public. Rasmussen's at 42%. The first time that hits the thirties, it's all over for obama in polling. He'll never get it back. If you're thinking about media coverage, at least the foreign press is already there. The man has no friends left overseas. It's only a matter of time before the US media catches up. But what I see as the great harbinger of electoral demise will come in 2011 if the GOP wins the House. That's when Darryl Issa will unleash congressional subpoena power on this administration. When the stories of criminality in the White House hits the headlines, absolutely nothing will save this presidency. That's when you'll see the real public outcry for impeachment and/or criminal trials of obama's highest appointees.
As for lashing out, if it's coming from the center/right side of the population, I wouldn't expect to see much more than what you're seeing already. It's really only the left in this country that become brutal and even violent in their protest. The center/right will simply organize and finance opposition against the abuses of this administration. And if it stays consistent in that effort, it will be enough. We are the majority in this country, and sooner or later, the majority always has the last say.
But here's one tipping point that we haven't seen yet. And this is a big one. When you see a change in attitude from corporate America, because the federal government will no longer be allowed to bail them out, then you'll know that America is back on the road to recovery. Only a change in policy and leadership will ever bring that about.
Ya know, there are some people who just should not wear hats. People who do not wear a hat on a daily basis, should NEVER put one on for a photo op, unless they are on vacation in Mexico and have just won the Tequila chugging contest and are wearing the Sombrero from the bar.
Obummer looks like a turd wearing that cowboy hat that has been posted here repeatedly. I do believe he would be in his natural element and look quite comfortable wearing a turban………….
The incompetence with this administration and Congress are staggering if not stupefying!
Jimmy Carter is dancing joyfully every morning when he wakes up and every evening before bed knowing that he is no longer the most incompetent, impotent president in modern US history!
VOTE NOVEMBER FOR OUR CONSTITUTION AND THE REPUBLIC, NOT IDEOLOGY!!!
The final tipping point is fast approaching for one other group, IMO. The GOP and it's leaning at a 40 degree angle right now. If they don't get their act together in terms of syncing up with the public the elections won't be nearly as effective as we need. Right now they're hearing, but they're really aren't listening.
They have GOT to get out of bed with big business. It really is little different from dems and unions….and drives voters to hopelessly underfunded candidates who can't win but sure can mess up a primary.
One way philosophically they could gain some ground is to be frank about the war. With a son in Intel I can tell you this war has no end that does NOT include the Taliban running drugs and Afghan politics and no leaders are pretending otherwis. They could attract disaffected anti-war liberals AND DO THE RIGHT THING BY OUR SOLDIERS by ending this charade.
Stragegically Republicans have more to gain than Dems have to lose by declaring they will NOT ALLOW this to become another VIET NAM, AND WITHDRAWING NOW saving literally hundreds of soldiers' lives.
The question is which party will the staunch anti-war vote by stating the obvious and demanding an end to the bleeding, whether you define bleeding in monetary terms or the death rate. Bird nest on the ground.
Off topic….have you seen Missouri's illegal alien legislation. Far smarter than the AZ bill since it focuses mainly on STATE spending programs and who benefits from them but yields the same effect.
Very savvy.
Win-win for the first one out of that gate.
Yup…..
Ask me….I prefer him in a Burka, bwahahahaaha!
