Comment on: What's Right

Maybe Joe Was Right

37 Comments

It's pretty scary

to think that the best we can expect of our nitwit in chief is that he "stay out of the way". He is an embarrassment to himself and to our country. Even though Joey the clown has a telant for putting his foot in his big mouth, he was right this time and so are you in your assessment of Odummer.

Good post, Bryan.

good post

but I think that list will increase tenfold in the next year. And that is not a joke either.

Sgt.Stryker

EVERYONE will test him! President Bush kept them on a short leash, NOW they smell weakness and go after it like sharks to blood in the water.

"Nitwit" in Chief (Ha! Good One Bobbie!)

I am praying constantly for our country. We are all adults. We all know what can happen with a "nitwit" like O'Vomit in charge. (i.e., Los Angeles or New York disappearing in a blinding flash)

I have more executive experience than Obama; and that ain't saying much. So all we can do is pray.

Maybe Joe Was Right

Well done, Sgt.Stryker! IMO your analysis of the situation is spot on and your conclusion is one with which I agree.

BTW, I too would “rather be wrong.”

Sir Gaffe A Lot!

Great moniker for Slow Joe the Veep, Sarge! The fact that B Hussein O (we can use his middle name now) chose Joe for his Veep speaks volumes! pbho also gave his first "presential" interview to an Arab network, sent a perky videogram to Iran, and flmo manhandled Queen Elizabeth. It`s been less than 100 days and will be a very long four years! Good, fun post even if he is so detrimental to the nation ....

Bobbie, Eric,Georgetwin,GG,Mrs.AL,DD

Thanks all of you for stopping by and for your insightful comments.

Bobbie-what's that line? "The soft bigotry of low expectations"? His tack is to show up everyday and just throw stuff at the wall, and see what sticks. He is clueless...and surrounded by useful idiots.

Eric-90 days in, and my list was by no means complete. Gonna be a long 4 yrs.

Georgetwin-I could almost see Medvedev licking his chops during the G20. Wait til Dumb-o sits down with Aqua-velva-jad. We're screwed.

GG-Keep on praying, brother. We definitely need some divine intervention.

Mrs. AL-no point in pyrrhic victories.

DD-I was going to add some of those you mentioned, as well as the IPOD for the Queen, and the letter to Medvedev. But space is limited, and my head was ready to explode as it was.

Sgt

Any moron with confidence in the O Hole needs to run, not walk, to the nearest mental health facility and get checked in.
Those of us watching without rose colored glasses are very, very concerned.

boaz

Thanks for stopping.

Be careful, you may be labeled a right-wing extremist. Like me.

I think I hear a knock on the door...

Concerned is not even the word any more. Maybe scared sh*tless is more appropriate.

Sgt.Stryker

Just re-read your bio. Come on now, why not record a dittie and post it ... I would like to hear you sing! With what tune will you favor us with?

sgt. stryker

Just going with craptastic. They are all going to test him. And this guy is just going to keep saying over and over how we are just evil, arrogant and lame. Whether he is on our soil or foreign soil. Oh yes, Mexico we are to blame.....blah....

WTH is going to say when he goes to Normandy? Oh holy heck!

Mrs.AL

Trust me, it wouldn't be pretty. I can't carry a tune in a bucket. On the other hand, I may entertain some requests. If Roseanne can get on national TV butchering the Anthem, who knows what I could get away with giving a truly heartfelt effort? Soul counts for a lot...

Sue

Thanks for commenting. It's something every day with this administration, isn't it? Overtures to Castro, shaking hands with Chavez, telling Israel a 2 state solution is the only acceptable solution, and sitting down with the Iranians, yet Sarkozy says Barry is a wimp and a lightweight. We are screwed.

it's bad

Now Israel knows that with Obama being President, if they decide to take out the nuke factories that the US will not have their backs. Israel is now all alone. It won't really be us that gets caught in the thick of things. The Arab World now knows Israel is at its weakest point in decades. They'll be more forceful and coordinated in their attacks because Israel now has no allies.

Stryker

The list gets bigger everyday. Zero is covering himself in glory as every tin pot dictator in South and Central America takes him in turn to the woodshed.

It looks like Sarkozy sized him up about right.

Jesse,Relic

Thanks for stopping and for the spot-on commentary. I really hope we're wrong, and that the Obamunist is just really good at playing a certain, conciliatory public role while doing what needs to be done...but we've been seeing what hope is all about lately, and it's not a pretty picture.

Sarge

An attempt at understatement.
I am Shiite free

the "BO" in chief

you can smell it from there and everywhere--I smell it even where "BO" is laughing it up with "Haughty Hugo" good post Sgt Stryker do not let up for a moment!!

boaz

Duly noted. Thanks for stopping, buddy.

Snow

Too late to stop now. My line in the sand is drawn.
I want to find a reason to give Barry credit. I've yet to find one.

Thanks for stopping by!

Sgt.Stryker

"O-wacko" still thinks that because he is "in charge" all the nations of the earth will magically come together and sing "kum ba ya" Yeah right. good post sarge.

Pen Captain

Thanks for stopping and commenting. The degree of narcissism is amazing...even Krauthammer commented on it the other day. Combine that with the fundamental lack of understanding of American Exceptionalism, and naievete, and we are in for a long 4 yrs.

Whatever test comes along

Barry will try to vote "PRESENT" on...

Craw

Absolutely. We should be happy he showed up, happier still it wasn't his fault.

Thanks for dropping by!

Sarge

Joe? Right?

Joe Biden was correct?

Ohhhh nooooo.

Sorrowful. Sorrrrowful me.

Biden. OBAMA!!

Good God in Heaven, take me now. Please.


Oh, well. I was willing to go, too.

Good post Sarge. A bit of levity well planned and penned.

Glenn

Glenn

Thanks for dropping by.

Levity is about all I can manage at this point. If I take this craziness too seriously, blood shoots out of my eyes and ears. And I keep running out of Rolaids.

Really, though...I want to be here for the capitulation from the left.

It will be glorious.

2010, baby.

Stryker

Biden's under the bus now. Hey, did you see Lynn Cheney smack down MSNBC? Great stuff, she's a keeper!

davecat

Thanks for stopping by. I hadn't heard about either incident. Did Joe do something else recently??
I'll check the Cheney bit...

Sarge

I wonder if Ole Slo Joe meant we should be looking for threats from internal sources - such as his boss?

boaz

That would require a bit more nuance than Slo Joe is capable of. I think most of us, on the other hand, are, and have been, quite capable of assessing the threat posed by Barry the new guy.

Biden Was Right

"...candidate Barack Obama, if elected, would be tested by the international community within his first six months in office."

He was, and he flunked. This is the most pathetically weak president ever. He doesnt have any conception that we are a soverieng nation with our own national interests. we're screwed!

Good Summary


The big story here is that through ALL this, Obama maintains a 60% approval rating. A tribute to the most blatant media bias ever practiced in a (now) quasi-free society:

“The nonpartisan research group Center for Media and Public Affairs along with California's Chapman University released a study that found the nightly newscasts devoted 27 hours, 44 minutes to Pres. Obama's presidency in his first 50 days. That compares to 7 hours, 42 minutes for Pres. George W. Bush and 15 hours, 2 minutes for Pres. Bill Clinton during the first 50 days of their first terms.”

“Not only has Obama gotten more coverage, but that coverage has been more positive than his predecessors. On the ABC, CBS, and NBC evening newscasts, 58% of all evaluations of the president and his policies have been favorable, while 42% were unfavorable. That compares with 33% positive in the comparable period of Bush's tenure and 44% positive for Pres. Clinton.”

Who gave Pres. Obama the most airtime? And where does Fox fit in?”

“CBS led the coverage with 365 stories and 10 hours 46 minutes of airtime, followed by NBC with 327 stories and 9 hours 38 minutes, and ABC with 329 stories and 7 hours 20 minutes…”

WHY

was I not notified of this excellent post?

Hunker down.

By food, guns, and ammo.

Be prepared.

And be GLAD if you don't live in NYC or DC.

Sgt.Stryker --- Premier Post!

Sarge: Your "Joe" post was stellar, sufficiently sarcastic, and jammed with so many excellent asides that I took an hour reading it so as not to miss anything. You betray an enviable knowledge of the international, and you tied it all together very effectively. The PM pecadillos mention was priceless. Thanks for that one and many others. Say, I'm still getting that "lost page" bit. And I also am missing flags on my incoming mail that new comments are in TH. If you have any suggestions on this, I'm buying. Stand at ease, Sarge, you've earned it. Verne.

Skep

Sorry so late on the reply to your comment, I'm not getting notified of comments for some reason.

I will say that Barry has gotten an A+ on trying to enact his extreme leftist agenda, which he announced throughout the campaign.

He gets an F for his understanding of history, and for his misunderstanding of how deleterious his policies will be for the US.

InTheNow, Boaz, Gunny and Verne

Sorry for the late reply, gentlemen/fellow extremists. Still not getting email notifications of comments. I hope TH gets this worked out soon. I am bundling due to the fact that I get bounced out of the page after each comment. I hope TH gets this worked out soon as well. What a pain in the arse.

InTheNow-I saw the piece you cited. Do you think there is any calamity/scenario that will turn the lamestream media against "dear leader"??

Boaz-Great headgear. I believe that would be the perfect accessory for any pirate ensemble, day or night.

Gunny-High praise, indeed. Thanks for stopping by my humble abode. The reason you weren't notified? I guess it's because I'm not shameless in my self-promotion LOL
Re: the list of things to buy? Locked and cocked, buddy, and hunkered down.

Verne-thanks for stopping and for the wonderful comments. I aim to please. And, I'm just trying to keep up with you, buddy, because you are by far and away one of the pre-eminent writers I have come across here at TH. (No offense to the rest of the crew, all of whom are great!)
