While presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump loom horrifyingly larger, can we spare a little horror as U.S. President Barack Obama looms ever smaller?

Robson is one of my favorites. Watching his Magna Carta documentary is a must for everyone.
2 Quotes of the week, from one article:
it never crosses Obama’s mind that America is in the right and should be tougher. Never.
good intentions without sound methods are just sanctimonious, and humility without purpose is just grovelling
The simple truth is that Obama has always been nothing but vapour. He is like one of those giant gorilla blowups that you see around mattress and car sales. Nothing but air. By far….BY FAR, the worst President of all time. Jimmy Carter must be very happy.
Small potatoes aside, he is able to stand and negotiate stairways without obvious assistance. An ability we may sorely miss in a few more months.
Carter at least admitted that he could have done certain things different. I doubt that Obama would ever say the same thing about himself.
Then again, Carter didn’t set out to deliberately destroy his country and had respect for its institutions.
Exactly.
I repeat the comment I made in the Operation Empty Chair thread above and expanded a little on it.
The header caption explains well the foreign policy of the current administration. The only successful accomplishment this administration has is in domestic policy, and that is one of economic decline mostly through the green initiatives fraud and degradation as well as increasing explosive racial tension.
Why didn’t anyone see this in 2008?
The electorate has changed so dramatically that someone like Obama or Clinton (or Wynne or Trudeau) can get into power and receive adulation they don’t deserve.
Obama always was an @$$hole and those who voted for him truly are what he said behind their backs (like teh cowardly tapeworm that he is): lazy and stupid. If they had any self-respect, they would confront him, ruin yet another golf game or screw Hillary’s chances.
And think of this: Li’l Obammy Limpdick is to Tinkerbell turdo, as punchin’ is to smoochin’.
O’Bummer was elected in 2008 because of his predecessor. It wouldn’t have mattered who the Republican candidate was, though I think McCain would have lousy had he been elected.
I long had the impression that Romney was a pompous ass and his infamous “makers vs. takers” speech likely did him in.
It’s unfortunate that politics has come to this. One doesn’t choose a candidate that one likes, but the one that may do the least harm.
One chooses a candidate on who is more tweet-worthy.
It’s time to head for the hills.
I believe that President Obama deserves some credit for sparing us eight years of Hillary. Had she won in 2008 and been re-elected in 2012, Americans would now have been ruled by the same two families since 1989. And who knows? If Jeb Bush had then become president in 2017, they could have faced 35 years of Bush-Clinton family tag in the White House.
And for this sorry spectacle they sent poor old King George packing?
God Save The Queen.
“One chooses a candidate on who is more tweet-worthy.”
So true. And it is only going to get worse. They say goldfish have an attention span of 2 seconds. I figure that is about a thousand times longer then the twits on twitter. And they vote.
Romney had the audacity to speak the truth about makers vs takers, and was roasted by it. So it goes with the media and the LIVs, the speak the hard truth, and you get crucified for it.
The electorate enjoys being lied to, being sold sweet nothings, whispered in their ears. That’s how we got Jughead Round 2 and PM Potato Head, TruDerp II.
The runup to the Brexit vote was sold the same way, an attempt to sway public favour, that voting YES, would be the most damaging (LIES). And so it is with Trump, trying to sell him as the most damaging, with ILLary as the least worst choice (MOAR LIES).
Damaging to whom, is the real question to ask!
(I should add that Robson’s “Incredible Shrinking President” is certainly an apt moniker for Obama at the fag-end of his second term though.)
and as for the wanton successor to OBlamer, well, all I have to say is that -pneumonia- is a really strange way to spell PARKINSONS DISEASE
“Small potatoes aside, he is able to stand and negotiate stairways without obvious assistance. An ability we may sorely miss in a few more months.” RIMcmt
Hillary had a seizure (second one shown on Video) and the useless Journalists are blaming disclosure (That is why they Exist, find the truth) The lack of disclosure rests with the Media. Are they all smiling crackheads on a tour….Now Trump must show his medical records..yeah! that’s it.. Trump is the problem and it’s only fair that they both provide records..She hid hers because of Trump…
All the Democrats are now saying they too have/had pneumonia.. Hillary “may” have pneumonia “TOO” as well as repeated seizures…IMHO She and SCOTUS John Roberts have a secret…
The worthless Media have more than Blood on their hands…Lies & distraction
The Man-Child was never respected.. It is the office, not the man…
I have always distrusted Obama. I think his performance is even worse than is being indicated here. I think he is a traitor to the country. It may be worth noting that it was Hillary who originally posed the question of his eligibility for office. I think that remains a legitimate question.
I did like Romney. I read some positive reports on him at the time of the last election and he seemed to me to be a decent sort. More recently, I have read some very scandalous things about his money and I have not been impressed by his stance against Trump after Trump legitimately won the primaries.
Romney’s more recent actions, and the current “hand-off” from Obama to Hillary, supported by a completely compliant and supportive media are clear indications that Washington, big business and to some extent the media are all being run by self-serving insiders. (I have never seen such bias as the anti-Trump stance coming from MSM.) Anyone who wants to bust this up should be voting for Trump. There will not be another chance.
I admit that I was taken in by Obama. I thought he was the change that the U. S. needed after Bush II.
I began changing my mind about him when he made his infamous “if you own a business, you didn’t build that” remark in his State of the Union address that year. And then came his shameless support of BLM after the Ferguson riots.
I, and many others around the world, will be glad to see him go. The question will be who his successor is.
As I said, head for the hills.
I sized the Obungler up before he was elected. When taking my IE course, we learned how the assess management, and in some ways the POTUS is a managers. When I read about his stint as president of the Harvard Law Review, were he would come in occasionally and talk to some of the people and then leave. The job was a hands on day to day position. When I had first read about him in 2006 I think it was, I did think that a competent black would be good for the country, even if he/she was a democrat, and I was wrong on that take. He is a puppet of soros, installed by Axelrod, supported by the like of Lerner. I call him the first Jewish president:-)))
I had doubts when I read “The Audacity of Hope” in 2008, and that solidified with his speech in front of the SiegSauele in Berlin. Nothing since has surprised me much.
“When I had first read about him in 2006 I think it was”
Liar.
Nobody on the blogs ever heard about him before 2008. He was a stealth candidate.
Obama purposely voted “PRESENT” from the time he became a U.S. Senator until he started his Democrat presidential candidate campaign in order to have no voting record by which people could gage him.
He voted the same when he was an Illinois state senator.
You could not have read about him.
You’re the dumbass that asked 3 Easter’s ago how people could know what was said 2000 years ago.
You are not well read.
