Amazing how they use the redistribution of wealth to their favor, isn’t it?

Lack of leadership, no vision for the nation, no idea of what security is….just a few of the DUH-1 shortcoming list….but, they nevertheless beat the “Bush caused this problem” drum over and over again. When is he actually going to act like the leader of the free world and make some major decisions? Not until he is absolutely sure he won’t get pinned with blame. Oh, and how does a leader not accept responsibility? Watch as DUH-1 demonstrates the awesome ability to shrug it off….I pray for a single term for this guy….how can ANYONE not see that he is an empty suit.

“Valerie Jarrett, a product of Chicago’s Daley machine, couldn’t manage a housing complex with millions in taxpayer funds. But I’m sure she could manage, say, an overhaul of the $3 trillion health care industry. What could possibly go wrong?”

Why stop at Jarrett? Every stinking one of his appointees (whether confirmed by the Senate or not) has a similar ability to confront problems, blame someone else for their own failures, and walk away monetarily richer for it. And, almost without exception, they are socialists.

The problem is that Obama was not qualified to be President because he had no real experience in politics. So he comes to Washington, and knowing he doesn’t have a clue about how to get things done, tries to surround himself with all his groupies, who he thinks know how to get things done. Unfortunately, all his groupies, like Jarrett, are just as clueless as he is. I mean just listening to their conspiracy theories every time someone criticizes one of their plans or ideas is just embarrassing. They can’t even explain or defend their positions so they instead attack those who question them about their plans or ideas (they’re racists or the reporting is unfair or the Republicans are launching a big conspiracy against them).

I’m afraid we are going to be subjected to this petty, silly dribble coming out of the WH for another 3 years. But I have no doubt in my mind Obama is going to be a one term President because of all of it.

Not only are most Americans not socialists as Obama believes but they expect the leader of the most powerful country in the world to behave with more class and dignity than that being shown.

But Jarrett dismissed [the premise that the WH was trying to stamp out dissent] during her interview.

Jarrett is such a bad liar. This is exactly what it is all about. Just ask Alice Palmer. He got rid of her due to a technicality, and thus ran un-opposed for the IL state Senate.

In all honesty tho, this is what I expect whenever Democrats are elected to this high position. This attitude is the reason we can still make fun of Hillary and her “Vast Right Wing Conspiracy” comment. It is divide and conquer politics, and nothing has changed since 1992 when Washington DC became the most polarizing force in this country. I just can’t believe that we have another 3 years and 3 months of this crap. Talk about a man who is behaving like he does not believe he is going to have a 2nd term and I will point to Barack Obama. – Lorica

I will be totally shocked and disgusted if Fox caves, but if they do, it will be because of serious threats by Obama and his thug friends. I guess the Chicago Machine is alive and well!

I will stop watching them if they cave

She would have been a much more successful slumlord (MUCH more) if Chicago had gotten the Olympics.

But no, ST, I’m NOT snickering, actually – I’m full-throated laughing out loud!

One of the better chapters in Malkin’s “Culture of Corruption” is the one on Jarrett. Not only was she Michelle O’s patron on the way up the Chicago Way ladder, but she’s also a slum-lord. What a charming person to have as a key adviser to the President.
