Words are a lot like money. When misused, they lose their value. Read my article @ FrontPageMag on how before the president damaged America's credit, he damaged his credibility with Americans.
It’s never the fault of he or his cronies. And what clearly applies here is Einstein’s axiom that insanity is doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results. Like everything this President does, if it ain’t working – just keep doing it. If it weren’t for the destruction of our country, it would be comical.
Obama's guy lectures, “lack of knowledge about basic U.S. fiscal budget math”. The hubris and shear stupidity of Geithner is glaring. Not only does he not understand point one of ‘fiscal budget math’, but he doesn’t understand basic tax code. So, remind me again why it was so important to HAVE TO HAVE little Timmy at Treasury?
This is the quality of individual we have some to expect from this most corrupt and inept administration.
And all you need to know about the Nobel Prize and it’s irrelevance is that Paul Krugman and Barack Insane Obama both have one.
Outside of academia,media,and the old washed up retreads left over from the watergate era,who has respected Barry?
Dan,you overestimated Krugman, retread,and Obama.
Hooah!
I think he is generally disrespected because he has degraded and, himself, disrespected the office of the Presidency with demonstrations here and around the Globe. No matter how much people around the Planet will criticize the United States or no matter what the lowest or most self-loathing American thinks about their country, most still expect that the President of the United States comport himself with some kind of semblance of respect that the office of the most powerful person on the Planet should demonstrate.
Since he was catapulted into the White House, he has often times spoken of the country he purports to lead as a budding young second class nation, less than exceptional and one that has to pay for some imagined past indiscretions. In other words, he has projected a disdain for this nation like the true Marxist that he is. And he has carried out policies that seem to insure that his dream of a diminished America happens.
What people see is not a leader but an agitator and a class warrior. For a person who was supposed to sooth our ills, he has done the exact opposite, spreading doom and gloom and the overall sense that we will and are destined to fail. At the end of the day, I think people ask themselves - who really does not want to be number one? And they see a President working against that achievement.
