It's more than evident that Obama has just mentally checked out. He has "short timer's" syndrome.
One thing's for certain, we can't keep electing presidents who can't do the job. I had so much hope that Obama could untangle some of the mess Bush left, but he's been just an utter disappointment.

I think Obama knew he couldn't handle the job in the first term. Heck, he sure can't work with Congress, so he has no leadership skills. Why did he bother with a second term?

If a president can't handle it, then don't go for the second term. I would have rather taken a chance with Romney.

Default The joke is the GOP

The joke is the Conservative narrative and perspective. Any group of people who thought Bush would make a fine president, people who thought Palin was qualified to be VP, people who thought Paul Ryan was a good VP choice, people who felt Romney would make a great president even though he was only interested in serving the very rich, has no credibility in determining who is a joke and who isn't.

The fact is, President Obama is an exceptionally great President, and this fact is a thorn in the neck of you Pubs. The joke is the GOP and count me among the millions who are laughing AT this hapless bunch.

Is Obama had stayed out of the politics in Honduras a few years back perhaps things would be a little better there.

[MOD CUT/off topic]

Interesting thought.



What did he do in Honduras?

[MOD CUT/off topic] Golf? Eating Texas barbecue? Fund raising? When has there ever been a president that didn't do those or similar things? Social media just makes it easier to see in this century. There will always be problems. Do you really expect future presidents to never leave the White House until everyone in every country is at peace and happy because he or she might show up on Facebook or Twitter having a good time?
Great to read posts by the most enlightened people in this county. Our President is doing an exceptional job in the face of irrational, pathetic Republican opposition.

One thing is for sure. When Republicans are unhappy, the country is flourishing. Kudos to our great President Obama.

I apologize, I assumed that after this long they actually had managed to finalize it. Doesn't matter, some of their friends actually floated the idea that Bush had caused harm to their relationship and was indirectly responsible for their split.
