Obama is imploding. The first Affirmative Action President, and the second "Black President" (Clinton claims he was the first) is simply not up to the job. Not disciplined enough to take questions, not focused enough to drive the press conference (and not let Clinton take over), not smart enough to re-assure House/Senate liberals that "triangulating" is not on the agenda, but simple survival accommodation is required. As Hot Air wondered, what's next? Dick Morris at the podium, replacing Robert Gibbs.
Obama wanted to be President to do three things: The first was party, party, party. The second was give big, self-important speeches about how important, he, Obama really was to history. The third was to punish "wicked" America for being too White and Western, and weakening it and his own office of the Presidency. While he has accomplished all of these objectives, Obama lacks the intelligence to see the danger to himself, his party, and the whole Affirmative Action superstructure. By bringing home to everyone (including property owning Asians, Blacks, and Hispanics "stuck" in America like Donald Trump and the local landlord alike) but particularly Whites, the dual incompetence and malevolence of the Affirmative Action class in action, Obama has guaranteed that there will be serious efforts eventually to impeach and convict him.
Yes, Ralph Nader says he just might oppose Obama in 2012. Nancy Pelosi, and her House caucus have told Obama to "F Off" in just those explicit words. [We are all adults here, but Google has terms of service requiring at least a minimal effort to rein in the obscenities.] Obama looks weak already, unable to deliver the Dems as leader of his own party, to a deal he himself endorsed. Indeed, his reflexive hard-left denouncing of his own deal and the "hostage taking" by Republicans on not raising taxes for those making more than $200,000 a year made the House revolt of the uber-liberal "Gentry Liberal" Dems a foregone conclusion. While alienating any and all Republican help in making further concessions on this or any other deal down the road. For what? Making deals he does not like politically, as part of being President.
It was more than bad politics. It was total immaturity, from a man well into middle age. It was the sort of thing found among Black rap stars, spoiled athletes, and other coddled people when confronted by reality. It was akin to Albert Haynesworth being unable to make weight and perform for his massive contract for the Washington Redskins, or Vince Young of the Tennessee Titans throwing his shoulder pads into the stands after being booed, and wanting to fight physically with his coach, Jeff Fisher. This has not gone un-noticed.
But Obama's latest stunt is going to cost him, big, down the road. People will remember.
Walking away from the Presidential Podium and Press Conference, and handing over both to Bill Clinton, because he was bored and wanted to go to a party, is the mark of a man to pathetically lazy to do the scut work that the Presidency requires. At a time when Americans demand their President do what he has to in order to keep their taxes from rising, right around the holidays, Obama is too lazy. He has to go to a party. Rather than defend his tax deal and make it happen. He's turned it over to Clinton, like he turned his own domestic policy over to Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, while he did the three things that were important to him.
- Party, Party, Party.
- Give big speeches about how important he is to History.
- Punish "Wicked" White America for being "too White" and diminishing America's power and that of the Presidency itself.
If rapper P-Diddy was President, you'd not find any significant differences in objectives. Obama perhaps is America's First (and likely last) Rap President.
Obama is constantly called "smart" and even "brilliant" in the media because as a Black man, he can avoid sounding like Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton, or Louis Farrakhan. That's a low bar. In reality, he is a man of average, at best, IQ. Too stupid and self-engaged in self-love to realize his own danger. Bill Clinton was at least smart enough to be afraid, eventually, and come up with a plan to pump wealth into middle class America so he could keep his Presidency. Though even Clinton was fairly dumb, risking the Presidency for what, oral sex from Monica Lewinsky. A face (and body) incapable of launching not just a thousand ships, but a rubber ducky in a bath-tub.
Obama just showed, unmistakably, in a way that cannot be denied, spun, or postured, how little he cares about the Presidency and America. When the nation counts upon to keep his own tax deal in place, he turns over everything to Clinton (who in turn hates him for playing the race card against him) and walks out to go to a party.
Vince Young is not going to play another down for the Tennessee Titans, in all probability. Rap artists can get away with that posturing, their White male teen audience eats it up as a the only model of aggressive masculine behavior "allowed" for them to consume. In athletics however, the only sin one can not come back from is "quitting." Quitting on a team, quitting on an effort, quitting on playing.
Obama just quit on the Presidency. To go to a party.
Not only has he lost much of his liberal base, he's lost most of America through one stupid act. When, not if, he faces impeachment, it is highly likely that his quitting on the job will persuade wavering Senators that he deserves to be sent out to an endless party. So that a caretaker President can succeed the job, until the elections of 2012.
This is remarkable. I cannot stress how big this action is. Obama just walked out on the Presidency. Like a bored, stupid, and spoiled Rap star.

Maybe that ad was correct, that Obama doesn't have the mettle for the job. Too bad. Because even though I disagree with everything he has done, I still like Obama better than the Clintons.
My jaw dropped when I watched that. But you missed another salient point: not only was the party a higher priority, but he's so pussy-whipped that he'd rather look bad at a press conference than piss Michelle off.
The way he bowed so deeply when he visited Japan about a year ago made me wonder about Obama.
This is the way a man suffering from Narcissistic Personality Disorder acts when it becomes obvious that not everyone loves him. The inner rage forces him to act out in ways that more balanced people can see are quite childish. To Obama, maintaining the fiction (if only to himself) that he is High Above everyone else is literally more important than the Presidency, or the fate of America, a country he doesn't love anyway.
Sestambi, yes that is quite true. Tick off Michelle Obama vs. sell your signature tax measure for the next two years.
Doesn't inspire much confidence if Michelle Obama wears the pantsuits in the family.
Whiskey, I wonder what you think of former president Bush's refusal to take shots at his critics or Obama, at least in the way that liberals take shots at those who disagree with them (Obama's ass kicking comment). I ask because you've previously stated that feminist view of an alpha-male is a someone who constantly puts down other males in order to increase his status, which in your opinion is not how true males in leadership positions behave (I agree with that having known a few military men).
Bush simply brushes his critics off and states the facts where Obama prefers to use WWE heel invective and verbally curb stomp them.
You've probably already read this but this should come as no surprise to you.

Obama knows that he will not be re-elected. So he stopped caring, is not like he was on this for something else than to prove his own superiority.
Also, my bet is that 2012 will be Sarah Palin vs. Hillary Clinton. Heh, that should be fun.
I hesitate to read so much into this incident, but it looked very, very bad. Maybe it portends the end of the Obama presidency, but it could just be the nadir before the recovery.
Conservatives don't support Sarah Palin. They left her almost a year ago. Sarah Palin is a relativist, multiculturalist, liar that spits on Christianity (Glenn Beck, etc). She also loves her book sales and artificiality. GX1080 is delusional to think that conservatives will support her. They dislike her and won't support her.
If Lawrence Auster has enough experience then he should run for POTUS and I think a lot of the conservative base would support him. If not enough experience then they would pick somebody else.
Hey, I just pointed what the Mangina-tastic leadership of the GOP will do to try to take the White House from Hillary.
This is a worst case scenario, of course.
Actually Obama has gotten alot done.
Let's look at the facts, President Obama has accomplished the following:
1. He stopped the free fall of the American economy2.
2. signed laws to expand children’s health insurance
3. signed a law that will improve the ability of women who allege pay discrimination to sue their employer
4. signed a law supporting increased financial aid to severely injured war veterans and their caretakers
5. returned science to its rightful place by lifting the Bush restrictions on federally funded embryonic stem cell research
6. signed a new hate crimes law
7. passed the largest economic stimulus bill in American history
8. appointed the first Latina to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Did I mention health care reform? No. I saved the best for last. Seven presidents, including at least two Republicans, tried to pass a national health care act. Obama succeeded. If he does nothing else he will be regarded a great president by the poor and those who care about the least of us. In 19 months, Obama has exceeded the accomplishments of FDR and LBJ, the two standards for such measurements.
In President Obama I do not see a miracle worker or Superman. I see a man with an extraordinary understanding of the issues affecting our nation. I admire his reasoned and measured approach to governing. Some call it detached, I call it purposeful, connected and enviable. I marvel at his ability to articulate the positions of friends and foes alike on complicated issues that most of us cannot begin to understand. He is lauded by his peers around the world as a thinker.
The truth is that he gets the job done. With our support President Obama will succeed.
If nothing else, the imagery is bad news for Obama. He's got the most successful Democrat president since JFK there on the dais with him, excuses himself to go to a party with Mrs. Obama, while Clinton continues to hold court for another 20 minutes.
This my friends is the equivalent of George H.W. Bush looking at his watch during the '92 presidential debates: I don't wanna be here.
You are reading too much into the comment about Michelle 0bama. No way he's telling the truth about her because she's probably too dumb to be the leader in the family (failed the bar, made a hash of assignments at her law firm, wrote an incomprehensible "thesis").
It's obvious that 0bama panicked in front of an unscripted audience and took the opportunity to leave as soon as he could. Recall the very long gap between press conferences after the Skip Gates fiasco, and how nearly every non-prepared speaking opportunity he has goes awry, revealing his poor general knowledge (US founded 20 Centuries ago, Eau Claire WI is a "state", 10,000 people dead in a tornado), inability to think on his feet (10 minute response to the woman who asked him about high tax rates), or lack of empathy (stupid insults about the Special Olympics & Reagan).
He also seems to suffer something similar to aphasia when speaking in public - not unlike some of the elderly patients I used to help monitor when I was young:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWy2XzDrz30
Perhaps this is due to his youthful drug abuse, or perhaps it's just low intelligence - after all, his being much more photogenic than most negroid-featured men causes people (especially whites) to overestimate his abilities.

"Doesn't inspire much confidence if Michelle Obama wears the pantsuits in the family."
this was obvious from the get-go -- that the real power was the michellle-oprah alliance and the constituency they represent
as with all "men" of the modern left in overt positions of power, obie is just window dressing, a front-man for the matriarchy
a close study of his background, and especially that of his mommy, Asset Ann Dunham, tells us all we need to know about our Preselected President and the Hegelian Dialectic that in fact empowered his bumbling mediocrity, cynically sold as some wonderful breakthrough in race relations
recently while teleprompting a speech to the "Most Powerful Women Summit" in the District of Goddess Columbia, the Presidential Seal fell off his podium and clattered to the floor
the look on his face made all my work worthwhile

Anon -- Obama ran as a Centrist Mr. Fixit who would bring the economy back up to Clinton boom times. This is not who he was, a race-baiting radical filled with the usual Black hatred/contempt for Whites and America (see Josh Howard of the Dallas Mavs) but that is who he was sold as.
He would be cruising to re-election if had employment at say, 5-6%, with real wage growth. Which is still entirely possible.
Health Care simply ladles extra cost (covering illegal aliens) on top of employers and taxpayers, it is the "export your jobs to China" act and everyone knows it.
What's in it for me to cover the health costs of Mexicans? Let Mexico take care of them, they are not mine. They are Mexico's.
That is the measure of Obama's stupidity. He thought he could be Harold Washington Times Twenty, and that does not work outside Chicago. Because there is nowhere for Whites to flee to. No Evanston or other places. Escaping high taxes, high crime and Black/Mexican anti-White racism and incompetence.
Had Obama reached a deal (eminently doable according to Wikileaks revelations) to bomb the hell out of Iran in exchange for Saudi pumping oil out at $40 a barrel for the next three years (we'd have to repeat bombings to scuttle their nuke programs so the deal is enforceable) and a Reagan style defense build up we'd see unemployment at 5%, wage growth, and a good economy with Dems GAINING seats not losing them, assuming he built a wall and had enforcement.
We'd be talking about Obama as a transformational President not one facing conviction after impeachment. The White majority is uncaring to hostile to all the things he did. They care about MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY. Put cash in their pocket and they will re-elect you: Reagan, Clinton. Don't and they won't: Carter, Bush 1.
This, btw, is why non-White guys cannot lead America. Because they pander to anti-White racism, and have no clue as to what the majority wants: rising incomes/disposable cash.
Obama's desire to be Harold Washington does not scale to the Presidency. People expect RESULTS. He canceled the F-22 Raptor program and threw 135,000 out of work in OHIO. A swing state. Why? Because he as a non-White guy reflexively hates America and the military.
It would have cost him nothing to transform his spendulus into a giant military build-up (particularly naval and air force) putting MILLIONS of blue collar White guys back to work who he could remind all the time, "Hey I got you back to work, and gave you more cash in the bargain!" Instead he let Nancy and Harry go nuts on stuff that did not get him popularity/patronage.
That's like Kobe dunking on his own basket. It was stupid.
Obama came into office with something like a 75% approval rating. He's now down to 42% (almost all of that Black/Mexican).
He is possibly the most unskilled and lazy, dumb President we've ever seen. He makes Warren G. Harding (generally agreed to be the most stupid, and lazy President) look like FDR meets Ike.
I just want to know who will answer the phone at 3AM, the question Hilary asked. She was right, but where do we go from here?
This is reaching but Nancy Pelosi with her super majority has more power than Obama, since she can easily over-ride his veto. That is why she could comfortably say "f off". In this situation our government is like Britain's with Pelosi as prime minister and the president as figurehead monarch, with no real power.
With Pelosi's power coming to an end, it's not clear who is running things, who wields the executive authority of the United States.
Obama has been a disappointing present not because of what he has failed to do, but because of what he has accomplished.
All of his supporters that I encounter try to bring up how he managed to get the health care bill passed or expanded this or that for our poor under served communities. Hogwash, he's done nothing to change the unsustainable concentration of wealth at the top through grift and fraud, passed an expensive health care bill written by special interests that left corporations like Cygna intact.
Health care costs are growing out of control in the US and its not illegal immigration that's driving it. France, Sweden, and other socialist European countries have similar issues with Muslim immigrants; it's the US that has completely out of control health care spending per capita. See here (http://www.oftwominds.com/blogdec10/productivity12-10.html) for more information on Baumol's predictions.
In the end Obama is a failure, because he failed to deliver on his promises and continued the failed policies of the past.
He would have gotten more props for not passing a health care bill (blame republicans). Timmy and Bernanke are going to be able to hold together the faux recovery until 2012 at least. Europe would have imploded first causing dollar purchasing power to appreciate and solidifying it as a reserve currency.
Obama somehow has managed to not just make bad choices, but quite possibly the worst possible choices both for black, white, latino, whatever-color you want alike.
...signed a law that will improve the ability of women who allege pay discrimination to sue their employer
i.e., one more piece of feminist inspired legislation which openly favors women over men. It's also gives the federal bureaucracy more power over the marketplace. I'd be much more impressed had Obama worked to repeal anti-male legislation such as VAWA or IMBRA.
But what makes Obama utterly unforgivable is the current TSA policies at the airports. The pornscanners and slidesearches are incredible violations of civil liberties, as well as being affronts to sanity.
But I suppose as long as he can buy off his feminist overlords by ratting out other men and giving the delusion of making womyn "safe" at the airports, Obama is going to have public support.
1. He stopped the free fall of the American economy2.
No, he didn't. His own predictions said his package would stop unemployment from going about 8%. It went to 10%, and it flattened out there before his ridiculous spendathon put real money into place. By his very own standard, the man has failed. Any attempt to deny this on your part is a lie, and nothing more.
His policies have been so unpredictable, everyone's holding onto their cash, keep economic activity restrained.
The other points on your checklist are trivial or downright harmful. Really? ANOTHER f***ing hatecrimes law? A PR justice? Whooptee doo. She epitomizes everything one thinks of when we think of affirmative action hires. Given the majorities he's had in Congress, the paucity of accomplishment is breathtaking.
The only thing you can claim is the healthcare package, which has incensed so many people, it's going to prove to be poltically untenable in the long run, and will be dropped. His adminstration is pooping out waivers so fast, you'd think they'd OD'd on bureacratic Ex Lax.
Shortly after Obama was elected, I told people that I didn't think he would make it through a single term. I believe that he will be forced to resign or will be impeached. The impetus for such action will be from members of Obama's own party.
I took a lot of verbal flak for holding this view. However, as time goes by the more I believe it will actually happen.
What if we get hit with major event? Such as a massive terror attack, military confrontation with China, or a complete collapse of the dollar? Will Obama be left in charge?
If Clinton was the first black president, then Obama is the first gay president based on his cabinet and judicial nominations (two lesbians on the supreme court). Factor this into future analysis. Surely gays have a problem with the working class and families.
To his credit, the tax cut deal with Republicans will hold off rioting in the streets during his term and allow him to scapegoat Pelosi et al as the problem.
The whole Clinton episode doesn't strike me as weakness, rather it is decently played political gamesmanship/survivalism. Some Democrat factions are attacking, so he sends a countering force against them. One can criticize the execution, but the tactic is effective.
I challenge any politician (Democrat or Republican) to do better given the economic fiasco he walked into when he took office.
"I challenge any politician (Democrat or Republican) to do better given the economic fiasco he walked into when he took office."
So politics is about dealing in counterfactuals & hypotheticals...? IOW, how much worse things would have been, if not for your brilliance? Perhaps you don't pay attention to current events, but look where that got 0bama and his party this past November.
"He canceled the F-22 Raptor program and threw 135,000 out of work in OHIO. A swing state. Why? Because he as a non-White guy reflexively hates America and the military." Robert Gates wanted to cancel it as well, but I just remembered that he was once Minister of Defense in the Black Panther Party...
After the events of the lame duck session, this post looks delusional even by Whiskey standards. Perversely impressive.
Robert Gates wanted to cancel it as well, but I just remembered that he was once Minister of Defense in the Black Panther Party...
Because Gates and 0bama HAD to have had identical reasons for wanting the program cancelled. And speaking of the Black Panther Party, maybe Anonymous could tell his boy to stop running interference for them?? You know, equal protection, & all that Con Law stuff your Majick Negro swears he knows about? Flipping off the nation's racial majority in the midst of a recession is an interesting strategy, but then again, the big 0 MUST know what he's doing...
