Postpone the elections?

Rush: Left Wants Obama to Postpone the Election

Tuesday, 30 Oct 2012 05:42 PM

By Todd Beamon

 

Radio show host Rush Limbaugh said on Tuesday that left-wing media outlets are pushing for President Barack Obama to postpone next week’s election because of Hurricane Sandy — something he says Obama has no authority to do.

“The president has no power whatsoever to do this,” Limbaugh said on his radio program. “The president cannot do it. The fact that so many people want the president to is alarming, because it indicates how many people would be comfortable with that kind of autocratic, totalitarian power.”

Limbaugh cited articles published on such websites as Politico, Slate, and The Atlantic – as well as questions posed by reporters on Tuesday to White House spokesman Jay Carney as indications that left-wing organizations are pushing for a delayed Election Day.

Urgent Poll: One Week Until Election Day. Obama or Romney?

“But in our constitutional system, the president has no say,” Limbaugh said. “I hate to tell you this, but the president can't do a thing about this. The Constitution sets the terms of the election. The states determine where the elections are, the federal government and states together.”

Limbaugh quoted from the Politico report, which suggested that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) could have a role in moving the election from Nov. 6.

“Here just one sample story on moving the election. It's from The Politico. The headline: ‘Hurricane Sandy: Could It Push back the Election? — [FEMA] is preparing for Hurricane Sandy to disrupt next week’s elections, agency Administrator Craig Fugate said Monday afternoon.’ Really? How's FEMA preparing for Hurricane Sandy to disrupt the elections?” Limbaugh asked.

“What's FEMA got to do with it? FEMA doesn't have anything to do with this. ‘We are anticipating that, based on the storm, there could be impacts that would linger into next week and have impacts on the federal election,’ said Craig Fugate, the FEMA administrator.

“He can ‘anticipate’ all he wants, but FEMA's got nothing to say about this,” Limbaugh continued. “Congress sets the date of election. The states have to get their re-elects in by the middle of December. They've got 34 days to have their electors vote. States don't set the Election Day; the Congress does.”

Urgent Poll: One Week Until Election Day. Obama or Romney?

He suggested the reason for all this talk is because, “They don't realize that the longer this goes, the worse it's gonna get for Obama. If they were smart, they'd want to move the election up.

“But, of course, that isn't gonna help 'em, either, because Romney is leading in the early voting 52-45, plus seven,” Limbaugh said. “There is nothing the president can do, legally. He can't do anything about the election. If he could, he could also cancel it, couldn't he? He doesn't have that power.”

No Oil Drilling: Obama

The Obama administration, citing environmental concerns, has banned drilling on half of the vast National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska in a move decried even by Alaska’s congressional delegation.

“The price of gasoline, which was $1.84 a gallon the day President Obama took office, has more than doubled since, willfully aided and abetted by an admi...

nistration that claims we can't drill our way to energy independence as we ignore vast reserves of North American energy that dwarf OPEC's and we sit on 100 years' supply of petroleum,” Investor’s Business Daily (IBD) stated in an editorial.

The National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPRA), not to be confused with the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) to the east, is a 23.5-million-acre, Indiana-sized tract on Alaska’s North Slope. It was established by President Harding in 1923 to ensure oil supplies for the U.S. Navy.

The desolate NPRA has been described as the largest tract of undisturbed public land in the United States and includes a point 120 miles from the nearest village or usable road.

In 1976, the reserve was transferred to the Interior Department and Congress designated it as a strategic oil and natural gas stockpile to meet the “energy needs of the nation.”

But in August, Obama’s Interior Secretary Ken Salazar announced that new drilling would be allowed on half of the reserve while the other half will be off-limits to oil and gas exploration.

Environmentalists had lobbied to protect the habitat of caribou, eider ducks and other Arctic species.

“The move drew praise from environmentalists but sharp criticism from oil and gas proponents who said it would restrict the industry’s ability to tap the nation’s hydrocarbon resources,” the Washington Post reported.

The off-limits portions of the reserve are “the most productive areas” of a tract that IBD says contains 2.7 billion barrels of oil and 114 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.

Alaska’s congressional delegation — Sens. Mark Begich (a Democrat) and Lisa Murkowski, and Rep. Don Young — call the administration’s action “the largest wholesale land withdrawal and blocking of access to an energy resource by the federal government in decades.”

They also said the move “will significantly limit options for a pipeline” through the reserve to transport oil and gas.

Erik Milito, the American Petroleum Institute’s group director of upstream and industry operations, said the plan “continues to leave domestic energy resources, jobs and government revenue off the table.”

IBD concludes: “The move is typical Obama sleight of hand: Take credit for increased oil production on public lands that you had nothing to do with, lock up resources on federal lands with the exception of places the oil companies find unprofitable or unpromising, then blame them, not your administration, for driving up prices.”

Where is the rage?

PATRIOTS for AMERICA 

Benghazi Update: WHERE IS THE RAGE??? I'm posting here because the media is protecting Obama... By now everyone knows that Obama lied about Benghazi and was still lying about it at the UN on 9/25, two weeks later.... No protest, No video. Denied security requests. And, people got murdered.

But, have you heard Charles Woods, attorney, judge and father of murdered Navy Seal Ty Woods? He called Beck on Thursday and was interviewed by Hannity yesterday to try and get the truth out:

When his son's body arrived at Andrews AFB, Mr. Woods met with President Obama, VP Biden and Hillary Clinton.

According to Mr. Woods: President Obama wouldn't look him in the eye, mumbled an insincere apology and was like shaking hands with "a dead fish".

VP Biden inappropriate exclaimed in front of the parents: Your son must have balls the size of cue balls. And, Hillary continued the lie...

Ms. Clinton told him: We'll get the guy who made this video...

Why didn't Obama, Biden and Hillary tell him: We'll get the terrorists who MURDERED your son?

All Mr. Woods wants to know is: Who, at the WH, gave the order NOT to save my son?

The attack and firefight last for 7+ hours... Cameras in the compound, drones overhead and satellites streamed LIVE LIVE LIVE video to the State Department, CIA, FBI, Pentagon and the WH Situation Room. Did Obama watch Ambassador Stevens and three other Americans die in REAL TIME, or did he sleep on it and watch it in the morning en route to more campaigning in Las Vegas?

Mr. Woods wants to know: Did Obama personally block the orders to send in the Quick Reaction Force commandos from Sicily or elsewhere nearby? The Seals were using lasers to "paint" the targets where the mortar attacks were coming from, for air support that never came...

How's that for leaving them for dead? I'm sure the FBI, CIA and military are brimming with confidence to see how the Commander-in-Chief "has their back". Making a mockery of these murders, lying about it and now blaming the "fog of war".

Why did it take three weeks to get an FBI investigation team there, when CNN could stroll in the next day and get Ambassador Steven's journal? I'm sure Team Obama (and the biased, corrupt media) are just hoping voters won't find out the truth until after the election. After all this is all about Obama and HIS campaign. Remember, to Obama these murdered Americans are just "bumps in the road." NO RAGE from Obama...

Americans were MURDERED and Obama, Hillary and everyone else let it happen, then LIED and continue the COVER-UP.

Where is the RAGE at EVERY campaign event Obama has? How about the media? If this had been Bush or any Republican they'd be covering this non-stop, 24/7. Are they so far gone for Obama they have no morals, or sense of right and wrong, either?

Where is the RAGE????????????

Unbelievable!!!

Read the Washington Post story. That leftwing rag — once a major newspaper — endorses B.O. for re-election, then cites his shortcomings. Unbelievable! These shortcomings are reasons NOT to endorse him. Liberal fools do not see the forest for the trees. Unbelievable! This country is going straignt down the tube.

Washington Post Endorses, Criticizes Obama

On Friday, The Washington Post endorsed Barack Obama for re-election, but was quick to criticize the President for his shortcomings.

The paper said Obama is a better "navigator," who "could better lead the country during the next four years — and, most urgently, who is likelier to put the government on a more sound financial footing."

The iconic liberal paper said it made its judgment "with eyes open to the disappointments of Mr. Obama’s time in office."

The Post cited some of these failures:

• He did not end, as he promised he would, “our chronic avoidance of tough decisions” on fiscal matters.
• "We were disappointed that Mr. Obama allowed the bipartisan recommendations of his fiscal commission to wither and die and that he and Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) failed to seal a fiscal deal in the summer of 2011."
• "Mr. Obama alienated Congress and business leaders by isolating himself inside a tight White House circle that manages to be both arrogant and thin-skinned. Too often his administration treats business as an obstacle rather than a partner."
• He hardly tried to achieve the immigration reform and climate-change policy he promised.
• In reviewing his foreign policy record, the Post said Obama "was hesitant and inconstent in responding to the two greatest and most unexpected foreign-policy opportunities of his presidency: the pro-democracy uprising in Iran in 2009 and the Arab Spring two years later."
• "Mr. Obama kept the United States on the sidelines as Syria plunged into civil war, costing more than 30,000 lives — most of them civilians — and breeding extremism that may destabilize a half-dozen countries."
• "By not securing a presence in Iraq after ending the U.S. military mission, he failed to capitalize on America’s decade-long commitment to that nation, and his ambivalence regarding Afghanistan — sending more troops, but with artificial deadlines and no clear commitment to their success — promises trouble in coming years."

42nd Annual Regatta

Philadelphia - October 25, 2012 -  The 42nd Annual Head of the Schuylkill Regatta®, Philadelphia's largest and most inclusive regatta attracting more than 6,500 competitors in 1,430 boats, is this Saturday, October 27th and Sunday, October 28th on Philadelphia's historic home of rowing, the Schuylkill River. Competitors from 26 states (as well as the District of Columbia), and from four nations (Canada, United Kingdom, Greece and Australia) are registered for this weekend's regatta.  Featured this year will be current Olympians, as well as Olympians from the recent past, including Esther Lofgren, Gold medal winner in the women's eight from the London Games, who will race her single in the women's open heavy singles at 9 a.m. on Saturday.  Also on Saturday, Sarah Garner and Christine Collins, Bronze medal winners in the 2000 Olympics, will compete in the women's open heavy doubles. A keystone event in the 2012 Philadelphia Classic Regatta Series, the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta is a 2.5 mile head race for high school, colleges, open and masters' rowers, as well as featuring adaptive and recreational categories over both days.  Races begin on both days at 8 a.m. and continue to 4 p.m. each day.  Admission to view the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta, on the banks of the Schuylkill River along Kelly Drive, is free of charge.  The starting line for this weekend's Head of the Schuylkill Regatta is above the Strawberry Mansion Bridge, with the finish line above the "Viking" statue on Boathouse Row.  The Head of the Schuylkill Regatta is what is commonly referred to as a "head" race: A rowing head race is one where competitors race the clock over a course typically two to three miles long, compared to sprint races of 1,000 to 2,000 meters. Head races are a format that began in England. The launching site for out-of-town crews, as well as the Festival Site, including awards ceremonies, vendors, exhibitors, artists, entertainment and food, is approximately one mile North of Boathouse Row on Kelly Drive at the "Three Angels," the popular name for the Carl Milles' sculpture "Playing Angels." Free transportation will be provided to spectators this weekend, from Lloyd Hall on Boathouse Row to the "Three Angels" statues, as well as to nearby parking areas.  Limited parking for cars is available nearby in Fairmount Park. Presenting sponsor of the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta is NSM Insurance Group.  Gold Sponsors include the Greater Philadelphia Tourism & Marketing Corp; Aleden Rowing; ARAMARK; East River Bank; and Exelon.  Silver Sponsors include:  OarTec; Shimano Rowing Dynamics; Ace Insurance; and Mariner Insurance.  Bronze Sponsors include:  Semanoff, Ormsby, Greenberg & Torchia LLC; and ROTHMAN INSTITUTE. Along with Lofgren, Megan Kalmoe and Hendrik Rummel, 2012 Olympic medal winners, will appear on the medals stand to help present Head of the Schuylkill Regatta medals to first, second and third place winners in each race.  They have also agreed to sign autographs at the USRowing booth (#23) in the Festival Tent.   The Festival Tent features vendors including: Boathouse Sports, the Perfect Snaque, PhotoBot, Henson, Wave One, Regatta Sport and Approach in addition to the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta's exclusive food vendor, Winnie's LeBus Manayunk.  NK is the official sponsor of this weekend's "DJ," and will be the voice of the regatta in the Festival Tent.  For the first time, there will be a warm-up tent, sponsored by OarTec, with "ergs" for crews that would rather warm up on land.   More than 250 volunteers, including members from across Boathouse Row and the rowing community, as well as from Philadelphia City Rowing, will begin working early Friday, October 25 until the end of the day Sunday, October 28 to make Philadelphia's largest regatta a success on and off the water.   The official Twitter feed of the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta is https://twitter.com/The_HoSR, and results will be posted there with the hash tag #the_hosr.  Results will also appear on the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/HeadOfTheSchuylkill?fref=ts. This weekend's Head of the Schuylkill Regatta has its roots in 1971, when three members of University Barge Club launched the idea for a new fall race, transforming the 1,000 meter Graduate Sculls race into a head racing format. The aim of 1960 Olympian Lyman Perry, Jay Pattison III, and the late Raul Betancourt was to offer rowers of all ages congenial autumn competition. At a time when only elite, college and junior athletes competed in "head" or distance races, the newly-established Head of the Schuylkill Regatta emphasized graduate oarsmen and opened racing to newly emerging masters' and women's teams. In time, the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta became the world's largest one-day rowing competition, but its popularity soon exceeded the river's capacity, so in 2008 the format was changed to a two-day event. Additional information about the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta is available at http://www.hosr.org. With three of the largest regattas in the Mid-Atlantic region on the schedule, as well as two of the nation's oldest regattas, the Philadelphia Classic Regatta Series connects the rowing competitors of today to the historic home of the international rowing elite. It is built upon a tradition that launched November 12, 1835 with the first organized regatta on the Schuylkill (a full eight years before the start of the rowing program at Harvard). Over 175 years later, the Schuylkill River hosts more regattas annually than any other river in the nation. Additional information is available at http://www.BoathouseRow.org.

Protection Bill

The full N.J. Senate has advanced bipartisan legislation sponsored by Senators Kevin O’Toole (R-40) and Diane Allen (R-7) to protect the e-privacy of job seekers.

“Job seekers have the right and freedom to use their private online accounts without fear of privacy invasions or discrimination,” O’Toole said. “They should not be disqualified, threatened or in fear for denying an interviewer access to their photo albums, political affiliations, religious practices, sexual preferences and communications with family and friends.”

S-1915/1898 Scs prohibits employers from requiring applicants to provide online passwords or in any other way access to their private accounts.

“It is illegal to invade someone’s house for personal properties and open another person’s mail. So, what gives an employer the right to forcibly access such a broad scope of personal information against an applicant’s will?” Allen asked.

This legislation also bans any associated discrimination or retaliation, allows applicants to sue for appropriate injunctive relief and damages, and imposes a $1,000 initial fine and $2,500 fine for subsequent violations.

“Given recent reports of employers requiring account access around the country, we clearly need a law to protect applicants’ e-privacy and shield those who lawfully deny access from the possibility of retribution,” Allen added.

This measure was passed by the Senate Labor Committee in September with amendments and clarifications that include prohibiting employers from requiring or requesting the employee to disclose whether he or she has an online account. An Oct. 4 Senate Floor Amendment exempts the Department of Corrections, State Parole Board, county corrections departments, and all state or local law enforcement agencies from the provisions of the bill. Gov. Chris Christie will now consider signing it into law.                                                   

“There are plenty of other steps in a job application process for employers to gain a profound understanding of an applicant’s experience, fitness, and personality,” O’Toole concluded. “Applicants should not have to choose between preserving their due privacies and earning incomes.”

Obama at Hofstra: relatively alert, therefore big winner

By: Ann Coulter
10/17/2012 03:42 PM

The best question at the second presidential debate came from Michael Jones, an African-American who said: “Mr. President, I voted for you in 2008. What have you done or accomplished to earn my vote in 2012? I’m not that optimistic, as I was in 2008. Most things I need for everyday living are very expensive.”

To which Obama said: “Are you my half-brother?”

Actually, all Obama could say was that he had ended the war in Iraq (while pointlessly escalating the war in Afghanistan) and that Osama bin Laden is dead (and so is our ambassador). Both of which must be a great comfort to Mr. Jones as he tries to pay his bills every month.

Jones was right: Since Obama has been president, everything you own — your home, pension, savings accounts, weekly paychecks — are all worth less.

Meanwhile, everything you need — gas, food, and anything else that requires fuel to be transported to you — costs more.

Obama can’t talk his way out of his record. As Romney said in response to the president’s allegation that he is gung-ho about drilling for oil to lower fuel prices: “But that’s not what you’ve done in the last four years. That’s the problem.”

Obama also suddenly announced: “I’m all for pipelines. I’m all for oil production.” But he vetoed the Keystone pipeline.

He explained that the price of gasoline was $1.80 when he took office because the economy was in the toilet. Apparently, prices have spiked to more than $4 a gallon because all Americans are back at work now and making big bucks!

Obama said the “most important thing we can do is to make sure that we are creating jobs in this country.”
So now he’s going to create jobs? Because, nearly four years into his presidency, 23 million Americans are out of work and more than half of recent college graduates can’t find a job.

He claimed to believe that we should reward “self-reliance,” “individual initiative” and “risk-takers.” And yet, a few months ago, he ridiculed these self-reliant risk-takers for thinking they were “just so smart,” sneering “if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”

Obama said we have to be “serious about reducing the deficit,” calling it “a moral obligation to the next generation.” But he’s increased the deficit by $5 trillion — more in four years than President Bush did in eight.

He also said he supported cutting corporate taxes. But only in odd-numbered years that don’t start with “2.”
The media will lie and say Obama won the debate — he has stopped the bleeding, he’s drawing huge crowds, the momentum is back! But as Romney said in response to many of Obama’s promises Tuesday night, “I don’t think the American people believe that.”

The trend is set and Obama’s voters are moving away from him in droves. People can see that Obama has to go to college campuses, the David Letterman show and “The Daily Show” to get a friendly audience these days. Even Lindsay Lohan is for Romney.

The media’s campaigning for Obama isn’t fooling Americans; it’s just making Obama’s obtuseness worse. If you’re behind at halftime, you don’t go to the cheerleading squad to ask what you’re doing wrong.

Absolutely nothing! You’re perfect! Don’t change anything!

But we’re behind by 7 points …

You’re great! You’re the best team ever!

With Obama unable to compete in a fair fight, debate moderator Candy Crowley had to become Obama’s wingman, injecting herself into the debate by declaring Obama the winner on the question of whether he had called the Benghazi attack an act of terror the day after the attack. Only after the debate, when everyone had gone home, did Crowley admit that Romney was right on Libya.

(If Obama called the Benghazi attack an “act of terror” in his Rose Garden speech, then he also said the victims of that attack were buried in the “hallowed grounds of Arlington Cemetery” and that he had visited them at Walter Reed — other comments in that speech not specifically referring to the Benghazi attack.)
Crowley stopped Romney from talking about Fast and Furious on the grounds that it had nothing to do with guns. She didn’t take a single question on Obamacare — the universally loathed monstrosity that fueled the 2010 Republican landslide and continues to be a thorn in America’s side.

In the media room, journalists cheered Obama’s cheap shot about Romney being rich, according to The Washington Times. Say, who did the Democrats run for president right before Obama? That would be the richest man in the U.S. Senate, John Kerry. But liberals believe Kerry acquired his fortune more honestly than by building businesses and creating jobs. He married a rich woman.

For all the media cheerleading, millions of Americans still know they’re out of work. They know, as Michael Jones noted, that everything is more expensive, including even-handed moderators.

Got racism?

Actress Stacey Dash

By: Ann Coulter

Liberal racism sightings have become like a lunatic’s version of “Where’s Waldo?” Kevin Baker of Harper’s magazine says Romney’s referring to his “five boys” in last week’s debate was how he “slyly found a way” to call Obama a “boy.” Says Baker: “How the right’s hard-core racists must have howled at that!”MSNBC’s Chris Matthews says the word “apartment” is racist because black people live in apartments. He also says the word “Chicago” is racist because — despite its well-known reputation as the home of Al Capone and the Daley machine — a lot of black people live there, too. (And don’t get him started on “Chicago apartments”!)As we go to press, Matthews is working on an exciting new hypothesis that peanut butter is racist.Meanwhile, my new favorite actress, Stacey Dash, sends an inoffensive little tweet supporting Mitt Romney and is buried in tweets calling her “an indoor slave” and a “jiggaboo,” who was “slutting (herself) to the white man.” (And those were just the tweets from the Obama 2012 Re-election Campaign!)

Could we get an expert opinion from Chris Matthews or Kevin Baker about whether any of that is racist?
It’s a strange thing with liberals. They spend so much time fawning over black nonentities — like Maya Angelou, Eugene Robinson, Barack and Michelle Obama, and Rachel Maddow’s very, very, very special black guest Melissa Harris-Perry — that, every once in awhile, they seem to erupt in racist bile to restore their mental equilibrium.

After President George W. Bush appointed Condoleezza Rice the first black female secretary of state, she was maligned in racist cartoons portraying her as Aunt Jemima, Butterfly McQueen from “Gone With the Wind,” a fat-lipped Bush parrot and other racist cliches.

Kevin Baker didn’t notice any of that because he was working on his theory that referring to your sons is racist.

When Michael Steele ran for senator from Maryland, he was depicted in blackface and with huge red lips by liberal blogger Steve Gilliard. Sen. Charles Schumer’s Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee dug up a copy of Steele’s credit report — something done to no other Republican candidate.

Is that more or less racist than Romney mentioning his sons? More or less racist than the word “apartment”?
Mia Love, a black Republican running for Congress in Utah had her Wikipedia page hacked with racist bile, heavy on the N-word. Her campaign headquarters has been bombarded with racist graffiti and slimy mailings with pictures of Klansman next to photos of her family.

Some would say that’s even more racist than Romney talking about his sons.

On less evidence than the birthers have, liberals slandered both Clarence Thomas and Herman Cain with the racist stereotype of black men as sexual predators.

As the preceding short list suggests, liberals usually limit their racist slime to conservative blacks. But not always.

In 2008, Bill Clinton said of Obama “a few years ago this guy would have been carrying our bags.” Democratic Sen. Harry Reid praised Obama for not speaking in a “Negro dialect.” Joe Biden complimented Obama for being “clean” and “articulate.”

Did I mention that Kevin Baker thinks that Romney referring to his “five boys” is racist?

Two years ago, liberal newsman Dan Rather said the criticism of Obama was that he “couldn’t sell watermelons if you gave him the state troopers to flag down the traffic.” (I immediately called for Rather’s firing for that, and then remembered that he didn’t have a job.)

Last week, Rather won the 2012 Edward R. Murrow Award for Lifetime Achievement from Washington State University. That’s not a joke — or at least not my joke.

Meanwhile, evidence of alleged Republican racism invariably consists of tenuous connections and apocryphal signals normally associated with schizophrenics and sufferers of “Thrilled Leg Syndrome.”
Since February 2008, the primary evidence of racism has been failure to fully support Obama’s election, policies or re-election. As Slate magazine’s Jacob Weisberg put it during the last presidential campaign, only if Obama were elected president would children in America be able to “grow up thinking of prejudice as a nonfactor in their lives.”

I wish I had a nickel for every kid who’s come up to me in an airport and said, “What I wouldn’t give to be able to think of prejudice as a non-factor in my life …”

Curiously, liberals weren’t concerned about what children in America would think if Clarence Thomas’ Supreme Court nomination had been defeated. No, only electing the most liberal person ever to seek the presidency on a major party ticket would prove that the country could “put its own self-interest ahead of its crazy irrationality over race.”

The left’s racial demagoguery worked: In 2008, Obama received a larger proportion of the white vote than any Democrat running for president in nearly 40 years. (Though he tied Clinton’s 1996 white vote record.)
And look how well that turned out! We haven’t heard another peep about racism since then.

To read more about what a smashing success the left’s utterly self-serving racial bullying has been, read my new book, “Mugged: Racial Demagoguery From the Seventies to Obama.”

He can't walk on water

No doubt about it: Mitt Romney came away at the first debate as the undisputed winner. Obama needed his TelePrompTers. The Chief Executive had trouble thinking on his feet. And many of his supporters came out against him, critizing his debating tactics..

I thought he was supposed to be so brilliant, the most "intelligent" president we've ever had (LOL), his admirers have often said. This debate proved them wrong.

He was also supposed to be a great debater....ZZZZZ.....wrong again.

And he can't walk on water.

Obama made a prediction at the start of his presidency that he would be a one-termer if his policies fizzled out or turned out to be wrong.

In this case, let's hope BO becomes another Nostradamus.
