| On Monday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “The O’Reilly Factor,” network senior political analyst Brit Hume said most of the blame for what host Bill O’Reilly called the ongoing “fiscal chaos” lies squarely on President Barack Obama’s shoulders. “Congressional leaders are normally behind-the-scenes people. … They are really not normally the leading spokesman on the issues. … That’s really a presidential job,” Hume said. “President Obama’s behavior in this business about the automatic budget cuts — this itself is the most peculiar behavior I have ever seen by a president.” “A normal president would be trying to reassure the

Comments: Brit really let it fly on the disgusting 0bama. A normal president would try to reassure the public. 0bama is not a "normal" president. He´s the most dangerous, anti-American president ever to hold office. I truly believe he is the Manchurian Candidate. I know, I´ll now remove my tin foil hat.

Not only is Zero unable to act, think or do anything Presidential,ethical or responsible, his wife has a new focus. Now our pets have to be physically fit. Will we have EBT cards for dogs and cats,too? Will she start a pooch patrol? While some who refuse to take the govt handouts are likely eating dogfood while she picks at her caviar, we are to hear how hard they are trying to help us be less foreign oil dependent, fiscally responsible, blah, blah, lie. And the EPA smacks down every attempt to realize independence of any kind.

It´s really funny how the conservative media is now following Rush´s lead after he told his theory a few weeks ago about Obama´s governing style which is to constantly be the outsider, always running against the corrupt govt, trying to right the wrongs...when he himself is responsible for these horrible policies. They are finally admitting that Obama´s goal is to crush the republican party so as to make them unelectable for years to come, something that Rush has been saying for months.
They still are too nice when they talk about him. I want them to get down and dirty and expose his socialistic policies and destroy him so even the LIV´s will see through him.

Brit still pulls the punch, calling it "peculiar" when the facts of the matter point unmistakably to malevolent motives on the president´s part. So Brit gets a little cover by feigning(?) bewilderment.
BO´R announces right off that assigning malevolent motives to the president is "conspiracy stuff on right wing radio," and so is out of bounds as an analysis, evidence not withstanding. I suspect he thinks that would sound over the top to "the folks."
It was a kabuki dance featuring BO´R, Hume, and their unseen partners.

Think about it...Raised, in part, by communists, likens himself to be one of Friedrich Nietzsche´s "Ubermenschs" and can claim a Kenyan Mau Mau, jailed by the British colonial authorities, as a paternal grandfather.

I can´t get over the reaction of people to Obama. Many saw him for what he was when the Rev Wright´s sermons were made public. Since then (it started with conservatives) people would say "Well can you believe..." fill in the blank. Yes we can believe. It´s been easily an outrage per day for four years!
Now it´s Republican commentators. "Well can you believe...".
Amazing.

At the risk of being accused of being a racist and posters asking that my post be removed, let´s face it - Obama gets a pass because he is the first American President of color. My gosh, you still have people going on about how corrupt Nixon was and yet, where was his Benghazi, Fast & Furious, a real enemies list, etc?
The Democrats couldn´t have planned it any better - an American President of color (the First!) to implement their radical agenda knowing that any legitimate criticsm would be drowned out in cries of racism.

This country has never had a President who purposely divides the country for political advantage. He wants the country to devolve into a bubbling cauldron of hate and he is succeeding. He is sowing division and pushing the country to physical unrest. Think it can´t happen here? It will if it advances his agenda. Narcissist ideologues will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals and it appears that no one has the courage to stop him. He is a real and present danger.

At all costs to the people of this country it is ´Never his Fault´! It´s always the fault of the Republicans and they are all rich racists. He´s a 2 year old screaming from behind his protector´s (ie: the press) skirts. Hate blame and then go on vacation while destroying the freedoms of the American citizens with his war on anything constitutional. Sequester will destroy what obama wants it to so he can make it as painful as possible because he didn´t get his way. It´s not peculiar . It´s vengeful and standard operating for the community organizer who thinks he´s a president.

If the lefties cuss, belittle them by asking if their mommma raised them to talk that way or ask if they are a Springer guest (with about the same education), say "once the name calling starts, you are out of valid arguments". Accuse them of being paid Obama propagandists and watch them disappear from the blog. Need an end game? Say, "See you on the battlefield, if you aren´t like your boss and have the guts to show up".

Or failing that, if some muslim islamofacist blew himself up with an anal bomb, while giving Barry his comfort. Could happen at his favorite bathhouse.

Obama´s first autobiography read in many parts like a cry for help. This guy is sooo damaged emotionally and psychologically that he should be in a psychiatrist´s office, not the Oval Office. We saw how he deals with a crisis- he takes his teddy bear aka Reggie Love and goes to bed. The media praised Obama´s extremely dysfunctional background , when they should have been sounding the alarm bells. He was abandoned by his black father, his distant teen age mother had a man´s name, he had a Muslim stepfather , he lived in a Muslim country and his nanny was a gay , transvestite who arrived to the house dressed as a man , but, would often leave in full drag. Turdi, the transvestite nanny ( you can´t make this stuff up ) amused Barry by having them both play with Stanley´s ( the mother ) make up. Barry found a man wearing lipstick to be very funny. The gay transvestite slept in the same bed with Barry for 3 very formative years. Then Barry was abandoned by his mother and sent back to live with his white grandparents in Hawaii , who were strangers to him. He´s had many different names . The grandfather made Little Barry spend time with a known pedophile, Frank Marshall Davis and it goes on and on and on .

President Obama is eager to build public support for his health care overhaul in the few months remaining before its implementation, but waning enthusiasm from Democrats threatens his effort right out of the gate. Two-thirds of Democrats now believe Obama´s health care reforms will either hurt them personally or have no effect on their daily lives, a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows. In comparison, just 27 percent of Democratic respondents said the reforms would help them. The president has long struggled to convince independent and Republican-leaning voters that his health care blueprint would lower premiums and expand insurance coverage.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.

They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.
