Will history record that Barack Obama’s only great achievement as president was getting his golf handicap down to the teens?

When Folks Stop Liking Barry:

President Obama’s image of leadership flounders in the Gulf of Mexico. While Governor Jindal displays the true qualities of leadership, our president is stuck in Saul Alinksy gear, demonizing a foreign corporation instead of actually doing anything constructive. Disgust at Obama’s genuine incompetence at this genuine ecological disaster stretches across party lines and the ideological spectrum.

Barry blames Bush for everything about our dismal economy. A partisan rubber-stamp Congress has given Obama the wild and wasteful expenditures which his childish, failed, quasi-Keynesian witches’ brew prophesies will spend us into prosperity. It hasn’t worked. Now, oddly, congressmen facing electoral apocalypse have stopped writing our wise leader a blank check against the federal treasury.

Wearing the hat of Commander in Chief, Obama explicitly sought a general in sync with his plan to end the war in Afghanistan. Then, when General McChrystal snickered too publicly at Obama’s cartoon leadership, the president replaced him with the old Bush team — the man Obama and his pals three years ago were calling “General Betray Us.” Does this cause a “willing suspension of disbelief” in Obama?

The nomination of radical leftist women to the Supreme Court simply reinforces the image of Obama as a closet Marxist. His cabinet choices reinforce this image of radicalism. The American people, during Obama’s administration, profess to be conservative — and increasingly conservative according to Gallup, a poll that already shows that conservatives outnumber liberals in every single state of the Union.

To show a modicum of concern, Obama finally went to take a look at oil on shore last week –- weird, yes. Bet you didn’t know “there were golf courses near the Gulf.”

Alas, it won’t work now that a backlash is building against the new offshore drilling moratorium, which some argue the dems will try to make permanent. “The order to idle 33 deepwater rigs could sideline as many as 7,000 highly paid rig workers and cost four to five times as many support jobs at catering, service boat and drilling supply companies, the oil and gas association said.”

Liz Cheney on Obama’s response to the BP oil spill: “You know you’ve got a president who believes that saying something makes it so. You showed it in the last segment when he said he was going to have the most transparent administration in history. But, that doesn’t mean you’re actually going to be open and transparent. It’s not the same thing as we’ve seen with him. On the war, he says he knows were at war but he doesn’t actually understand he has to lead us in the fight… And, going down to Louisiana he says, “Gosh, I’m heart-broken. I’m angry. I’m frustrated.” And then going on vacation to Chicago really doesn’t send a message that this is a man who’s leading… A gift for reading the TelePrompter is not the same as leadership.“

Mhew, the Won doesn’t care what the bitter-clingers think. With the Gulf Oil spill turning catastrophic, the stock market tanking, Europe set to riot, and North Korea about to start a new war, Barry is heading to Chicago for a long weekend of golf and rest. Nothing bothers this cool joker, nothing at all…

While the BP oil geyser pumps millions of gallons of petroleum into the Gulf of Mexico, President Barack Obama and members of Congress may have to answer for the millions in campaign contributions they’ve taken from the oil and gas giant over the years.

BP and its employees have given more than $3.5 million to federal candidates over the past 20 years, with the largest chunk of their money going to Obama, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

He does better when he does nothing!  Check out the NPR article here, and the internals (sans the liberal handwringing and reassurances to Obama supporters plainly evident in the NPR article) here.

Yet if you point to the error of their ways, the robotic clichémongers immediate spout off what talking points they have been told to use and can recall “… Last eight years … Bush … the mess he inherited …” while giving no thought to the fact that the dems controlled congress for the past two years when it began to spiral out of control.

“CAEWWTDUH.”

For White House Toadies, at least the DUH part is correct…
