Another thanks to Blogger Gunny for this interesting insight into Obama's involvement in decision making in the Executive branch @ Obama Aides: He Didn't Know Extent of NSA Surveillance | Truth Revolt

Obama Aides: He Didn't Know Extent of NSA Surveillance
"I think it was disturbing to most people, and I think he found it disturbing.”

Is anybody going to wonder exactly what he's doing if he continually claims, “I didn't know ...”?

Obama is too busy playing golf to know anything. He is the clueless president and doesn't do his job at all.

He's either a liar or incompetent. There aren't any other choices. Everytime a problem comes up he knows nothing. Since he doesn't fire anyone, I lean to he's a liar.

He does this because he knows the adoring liberal media will cover his ass.

If anybody else consistently stated that they had "no idea" at their own job, they would be without a job very quickly. For some reason, however, some people in this country believe that the person acting as President of the US not having any idea about so many things going on is perfectly acceptable. They also like to remind us what schools he attended, and how so very smart he is.

Ok, then that leaves nothing left but a liar.

I recall a Doonesbury cartoon that came out during the Watergate era (yes, I'm that old). It didn't show any faces, nothing but four panels depicting the White House in each one. Above the White House were "speech balloons" that related what someone inside (obviously then-President Nixon) was saying to some colleague.
_______________________

First panel: "If I knew about all this illegal stuff the people working for me were doing...."

Second panel: "....then what am I doing in the White House?"

Third panel: " And if I didn't know about all the stuff the people working for me were doing...."

Fourth panel: "....then what am I doing in the White House?"
_______________________

A good question then... and a good question now.

Nah, he's just stupid for failing to recall a simple "Well, I don't remember" would pacify the right.

So he's *not* an evil mastermind working tirelessly to force America to adopt his godless Muslim gay socialist communist fascist environazi agenda?

Well. That's a relief.

No chance that different people said those different things?

(Did someone mention someone being a "boob"?)

The thing about the liar-in-chief is that he portrays himself as weak by not knowing what his minions are doing.

Thus he must be the weakest president the country ever had.
