REALLY? So, this is how things get better?

[Sooner in Tampa]

"After I signed the bill, I looked around to see if there were any asteroids falling, some cracks opening up in the earth," Obama said, adding it turned out to be a nice day and "birds were chirping, folks were strolling down the mall."


Well, I say go for it," Obama said, goading his critics.

Can the current president be anymore arrogant?

I am sure grandstanding and goading will help the current ****ed up state of affairs in Washington...instead of trying to close the gap...let's just make it wider

Enjoy your one term

What's funny about that is they can't decide if Bush II was just a dumb hick or a criminal mastermind. I have heard the same persons express those opinions more than once.

"There are some who feel like that, you know, the conditions are such that they can attack us there [in Iraq]. My answer is, 'Bring 'em on.' "

But this makes it all better. ...

"I regret saying some things I shouldn't have said, like 'Dead or Alive' and 'Bring 'em on.' My wife reminded me that, hey, as president of the United States be careful what you say."

In late 1988, Obama entered Harvard Law School. He was selected as an editor of the Harvard Law Review at the end of his first year,[35] and president of the journal in his second year. After graduating with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) magna cum laude from Harvard in 1991, he returned to Chicago.




Dude, say what you want about his politics, but Obama is smarter than about everyone on this board.

Let's keep our eye on the prize here boys and girls...To brag about his "victory" in said manner...REALLY makes him look petty and immature!

Dude, say what you want about being smart, but any employer can tell you that smarts are third on the list of considered predictors behind attitude and prior experience. Obama is a big fat fail on those factors.

[OUMallen]

I'm going to put this out there, and I would think it's pretty inarguable.

Anyone that knocks a person's intelligence, when that person was an editor of the HARVARD LAW REVIEW, graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law, and subsequently was a lecturer at CHICAGO LAW, is only indicting their own intellect.

It's OK to say our president is exceptionally intelligent. That's a good thing. Even if you hate his policies and maneuvering.

When you've done everything you can possibly do to indicate that you won't listen to a word the man says, why do you get so offended when he decides not to listen to you in return?

I watch/listen to every word the man says, because its my civic responsibilty. Which is quite a chore since my least favorite thing is to be told its raining while somebody pisses down my back.
Its true he does not listen, but right now my point is...would it be too much to ask for him to try to act presidental. Bush apologized for his cowboy bull****. You will never hear this arrogent prick apologize for anything.

It's easy to apologize when you don't have responsibility.

What could Obama do to act presidential in your eyes? And no, "resign" is not an acceptable answer.

[Veritas]

I'm no Obama supporter, but jeez man, let's have a semblance of reasonableness here.
I'm not sure what you're aiming at here. "As if I know about anyway" about what? If you're going to take personal shots then explain yourself.

I'm in the software development business. Before that I ran a mold remediation business. Before that I was a sales manager. Before that I ran restaurants. The greatest challenge of any business I've worked with is hiring, and I've enjoyed some very expensive lessons. I can tell you with 100% confidence that intelligence is no predictor of whether or not someone is going to be good, even in a field that requires a very high level of intelligence.

Attitude is the most important factor. The first time I was responsible for hiring a programmer, I looked for the smartest guy I could find. I ended up hiring a propeller-head version of Dr. House. The guy was staggeringly brilliant, crazy GPA with honors from one of the top engineering schools. He was also an arrogant ******* that was impossible to manage and horrible to work with.

Experience runs second, depending on how technical the field is. Experienced people solve problems more quickly, and if you're hiring an expensive programmer, this is pretty important. If you're hiring a grunt to do mold remediation it still matter, but less.

Intelligence is third…sometimes second, but usually third. Intelligence is like horsepower. It's alluring and fun to brag about, but it don't mean **** unless it's properly applied.

As those three factors apply to Obama, he clearly has intelligence in spades. Unfortunately he's an arrogant man with no leadership experience who has become disappointment to many who held such high hopes for him. Read the more blatantly liberal blogs and news source; the disillusionment is setting in.

You totally missed the point. Have you ever been around teenagers with high IQ's? They are arrogant, close minded, difficult to teach, naive, disrespectful, and don't feel, but know for a fact they are just plain better than everybody else. Actually, they don't know ****, they are immature little brats.

Let's see, what could Brack do to act presidential? Hmmmm. This is a hard one, but I'll play:

How about put your ****ing hand over your socialist heart for the pledge? How about wear a ****ing American flag on your lapel? How about stand eye-to-eye and toe-to-toe with the ragheads instead of bending over and sucking them off? How about telling the Surrender Monkeys in France they oughta be grateful for our assistance instead of apologizing for all of our grievious misdeeds on their soil?

Well its one hell of a cherry on top of a hundred years of treating our Constitution like toilet paper.
The socialist in this country have been setting the table for Brack for century. America has historically been too independent to be remade over night. Pull your head out, or just admit you want to live in county were the collective is valued over individual freedom.

Obama is not really the problem. He is an annoying cheerleader figurehead. The real problem is Pelosi and the democrat run congress.

And why do any of these things matter, in the grand scheme of things? Do you really think the United States is that weak?

[delhalew]

A) Bush has been silent on all of the golden boys bungles. See, he is not even in office and manages to show some decorum.

B)What ****ing world do you live in? Our president is the public face of our nation. We generally prefer they behave like an adult. Also, showing a little pride in what this nation has accomplished is kind of nice. To Obama, every problem around the world is our fault and we would quite being so selfish the world would be healed on sunshine would shoot out of the @ss of every dictator and cowardly terrorist around the globe.
He will lick the taint of every ******* in the world, but the problems in Mexico are OUR fault, we are close minded and stupid because we don't want his economically disastrous policies. The bull**** never ends with guy.

Just goes to prove my point. You don't like him, and that's that. You'll always come up with some perceived slight to justify this. Obama's not a perfect president, but he's not the Antichrist. Stop acting like a scared child.

My eyes are open. I don't like his policies and I don't like his actions. I love how any disagreement with this president is dismissed as some personal problem. Socialism is the new N word. That's my favorite.

I used to give Clinton a pass on EVERY thing he did. None of these jerk offs are getting by with this crap any more...without me calling them out on it.

Huh? Let's see, why did it matter if Bush couldn't say "nuclear?" Why did it matter when he said "Mission Accomplished?" Why did it matter that he couldn't make a decent speech to save his ***? Guess what? None of that mattered. It did not interfere with the job he was doing. Did other countries think he was a goober? I'm sure, but they didn't **** with him either.

Now on Brack. He's gone out and cowtowed to every leader from every country he's visited. He's shown the world what a bunch of limp-wristed, apologetic, n'er do well the Americans are. And you love him for it.

not to discount ANYTHING you are saying but, i work for the government...you'd really be suprised at how SOME people get put into positions of power. I'm not saying he's dumb or anything but, im not buying all the ivy league BS...is it impressive? sure but how do we know they didnt need to make a quatoa? bush was in that skull and cross bones thingy...rich boy gangsters? please. theres a gang of girls at yukon high that would whoops those boys azzes/

You're right. It didn't matter. And Ahmadinejad made a parlor game out of tweaking W.'s nose. International relations isn't a game of who's the toughest guy in the room. It's a game of how much you can get away with before everyone wants to kick your ***, and then how much after that.

That would be one thing if the United States weren't capable of leveling the planet at any given moment. However, we still are. Teddy Roosevelt didn't just say "carry a big stick."
