Because he doesn't have a clue how to do his job. Zero executive experience before the presidency and an abysmal failure there. And actually doing his job would be, you know...work. It's much easier and more fun to play rock star on the campaign circuit. And uninformed voters eat it up.

Frankly, I'm at a loss as to what he expects any of us to do about the crap going on in Washington, anyway. It's been nothing but constant fighting in the Senate and Congress.

And the President traveling around the country, talking to Americans about what's happening in Washington. What the heck is that all about? It's like he's still campaigning. What does he think that will accomplish? We're at the mercy of what those goons in Washington are doing. We have no power over that.

As long as I'm going to rant, I might as well ask what's the deal with hanging out with all the celebrities, too? Appearances on late night talk shows and recurring visits to The View. And the Mrs. being a presenter at the Oscars???? After they leave the WH, are the Obamas planning on going into show business? Good grief.

thats part of the problem with this president, but understand he also wants to destroy the republican party. its his way, eliminate all competition in any way possible, even if that means lying to everyone.

I don't know if it is more hilarious or more sad that some seem to believe that if the President of the U.S. is keeping the people of the U.S. informed as to the workings of the government and the impact of those workings on the people of the U.S. he is "not doing his job." In point of fact, he is actually doing exactly what he should be doing. I guess if some folks don't want to be informed or would rather have their information come to them only through Fox news filters then that would be their problem. The majority of thinking citizens actually prefer to have a president who sees it as his duty to keep us informed.

I'm so over his pitches, that are fake anyways. He does everything for an audience, plays the blame game for the naive and faint at heart, and it works.

Blames the other side continuously, his side is innocent we know, we've heard it for 4 years now, has no idea about how this happened or that happened, it is so old now. Tired of his mannerisim. Seems he does more traveling then anything, and at what a cost.

He's wanting to destroy the republician party, for the idiots that can't see thru his logic, he has won. Over it already, and get something gosh dang done, for the sake of this Country. We are not the best we can be. His bullish arrogant behavior, is so inmature and child like.

the problem with this president is that the information he gives is mostly negative. back during the reagan years, reagan had to deal with a sequester also. the difference is that reagan didnt predict doom and gloom, he went out and dealt with the situation and made it work. this president is throwing a temper tantrum and blaming the republicans for something HE WANTED in the first place.

Like Obama is going to tell the whole story he will give his slanted version and convince the ignorant he had nothing to do with it. We have seen this old re run.
