Obama is just another lefty who loves humanity. It’s people that he can’t stand.

Is that all you got Greg? Can you STOP living in the past? So the Patriot Act is “bad” but TEO taking over PRIVATE networks and the internet is “OK”?

And I’d think 20 million FREE people today wouldn’t say it was unnecessary – but then that doesn’t matter to you? Nor a dictator THREATENING us? We should have apologized for our buildings being in the way of the high-jacked airplanes, is that what we should have done?

Yes, we HAVE all seen this before in the form of our Last President. Inept , ignorant , callous, George Bush. He brought us an unnecessary and illegal war in Iraq, a near depression in our economy, and a trampling of our civil rights in the form of the so called Patriot Act.

I like to use the analogy of the dog that chases cars.
Assume for a moment the dog is successful in his quest and is now behind the wheel.
All the dog can do is look around and think, “what now?”

This President and his administration haven’t the foggiest idea of governance.
Good news for Jimmy Carter though. He’ll get to move up one position on the list of Amerca’s most ineffectual presidents.

We’ve all seem them sometimes in our lives – a person who’s been promoted beyond his ability to do the job, by lying and smoozing the “correct” people on the way up. But instead of at just someone in company management who’s underlings carry him/her for a while, the entire world is seeing this one, and his underlings can’t make up for his ineptitude.

Someone suggested that Obama views the American people more like an anthropologiest would than in the way a native would view us.

Another analogy is that Obama is like a marketing guy who is selling to a demographic very unlike his own–say, a totally whitebreat guy who likes 1950s jazz and rare steaks who is marketing music and groceries to first-generation Hispanic immigrants. Our marketeer has had a couple of big successes and gotten promoted, but he doesn’t have any intutitive feel for his market, and sooner or later–probably sooner–will really mess things up.
