Barack Obama's next move

I can't figure out the game plan. Obama is a combination of the worst of Bush and Carter. It seems that he's going out of his way to alienate literally everyone. Conservatives, progressives, Republicans, Democrats, governors, European allies... and it's all reflected in the polls. He's even more unpopular than George Bush.

What can he possibly be thinking? Are his handlers just stupid? Is there a total vacuum chamber over the White House, and no one inside can see or hear what is going on in the real world? His #1 goal should be encouraging the creation of private-sector jobs. That's it. Yet everything he's done so far will accomplish precisely the opposite.

In all likelihood, this will be his next move.

Dude! He is the first minority president. Cut him some slack.

This is what he does...always has...why do you expect him to be something he is not? He will do what has worked in the past..it has always worked and frankly may work again.

W, what I'd like to "cut him" sure as hell ain't slack....

Personally I hope his next move is back to his native Kenya, preferably in hand cuffs and leg irons.

Funny! The word verification is "spine"

Rorschach, we all need to be willing to sacrifice quality and experience in positions of power to increase access to women and minorities.

It is not like the presidency of the United States is that important.

Besides, you are a white guy hiding behind a mask...very suspect.

Being minority is not the issue, it is being a good leader and making good decisions that effects our country. He has no experience running a business. His previous job was registering voters and running for office. Personally, being, black, hispanic, asian or white has nothing to do with his job performance. We cannot give him a break because he is a minority. He is a educated man but makes wrong decisions. He needs much better handlers.

He's turned into a total disaster.

To a certain extent we have built a system that is now too complex to be managed. Basically, it's just flying on it's own.

A good President is kind of like trim tabs on the Titanic. Just making the ride a little smoother until the ship of state crashes into the Hell sized iceburg of decades of good intentions.

Playing golf is just like fiddling while Washington rapid oxidizes in it's on contradictions.

Can't we all just get along...the politics of hate is what is wrong with this country. OK, what I really think is that everytime I hear the term diversity I just want to rip someones head off...I want to hear about what makes us one nation & one people not what makes us lots of minorities....anything else is the true hate speech (trying to make us mistrust each other), any good CEO would see that.

I just want to fast forward to November...err make that January...boy can they do damage as lame ducks given what they have done while running for re-election.

I am not really with any ideology; I just want to be left alone and have the smallest government possible. Last election I was willing to give Obama a fair chance beacuse the idea of the 110 year old McCain as prez did not appeal to me. Times up, Obama has been pretty terrible time to move on. To what though?

I'm from New Hampshire, so according to Roland Martin, anything I say will be racist anyways.

NH,

Yeah, that's pretty much me as well. Prayer in schools and gays in the military aren't hot-button topics with me. A government that actively seeks to destroy US industries is.

I hope you all can tell that my scribbling us purely sarcastic.

Michael Ryan said...

It occurs to me that wherever he is he figures he's the smartest, most capable person in the room. So when someone tells him he's f-ing it up he simply doesn't believe them. "Handlers" can only do so much.

To W,
Here you go again...are you saying that because he's black, he can't do the job? You racist bastard! You people believe in everything you hear and read from the media. Why don't you go to the WH website and see what's going really on? Do your research before posting ignorant crap. You biggots don't want change, you want things to stay the same as always. Polls don't mean crap. Were you on one of those polls? I don't believe a damn thing the media feeds to the American people but you all need to start reading between the lines. President Obama is doing a fine job. You're just mad because things are not going at the rate you want them to go. Rome wasn't built in a day. Don't screw with Obama!

JHW:
You are obviously misguided. What president do you know who had experience? NONE! Unless they been in office for the second term like Bush, who made this mess under his presidency. I guess you rather have that so called war hero McClain and the Maverick Palin in office. None of them have experience in running a darn country. Go kick a rock!

To Funny Circu Bear,

Your life is a disaster. Go and clean it up before you start spewing blame on the president.

Seems like you are disconnected. How long did you think the recovery would take? Things don't happen overnight. The economy and jobs will get better. Some people just do not have faith in anything.

If you truly believe that, then don't say anything. Just go on in life being a mute.

Stop being sarcastic. It doesn't work. It only makes you look and sound ignorant.

To Michael Ryan:
What is he f--king? I didn't see any walls cave in. Are you afraid of a black president? Or should a say, "half black/half white? Get your butt in gear and stop making predeterminations about what's going to happen. That's what got Shirley Sherrod fired, white people jumping the gun.
