Another Bad Week For Obama

Barack Obama must wake up in cold sweats after discovering that his gift for gab can get him in as much trouble as Biden’s mouth often does. This past week Obama lost support of some folks because he weighed in on the issue of the arrest of his friend, Henry Gates. When asked a question about Gates’ arrest, Obama said the police “acted stupidly.”
A black officer who was with SGT Crowley, the officer who made the arrest, said that Crowley did his job and did nothing wrong. A black female cop who spoke, Ms. Kelly King, stated that she had supported Obama and voted for him but she will not vote for him again.
Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me.
This comes as Obama’s approval numbers take a downward spiral and his health care bill lingers in political lingo. Obama has enough Democrats to pass the bill on a straight party line vote but many are balking at voting for the monstrosity. This has forced Democrats to claim they need Republicans to pass the bill. In other words, they want Republican votes so they can blame them when the thing turns out as bad as expected. Republicans should not bite. If it is so good then the Democrats should have no trouble passing it without Republican support.
Adding to Obama’s problems is disclosure of an interview he did as a Senator. In the interview he bashed Bush for ramming legislation through without giving people time to read the bill. This should ring of hypocrisy given how Obama and his Democrats are doing that very thing with all the social engineering plans they are forcing through Congress at breakneck speed. Legislation that is NOT read by anyone in Congress. Even Obama admits he does not know what is in the health care bill.
The hits keep on coming for Obama and the Democrats. Senators Dodd and Conrad, who claimed they knew nothing about their sweetheart home loan deals, were exposed as liars when a witness testified that both of them were told and were well aware of the sweetheart deals they were getting.
Republicans have added to the misery by saying they will not vote for Judge Sotomayor, Obama’s pick for the Supreme Court.
Looks like Obama needs that expensive vacation he is planning.
Funny how the Dems were up in arms when Bush went on vacation.
A ranch is Crawford is for the non elites…

Hypocrisy in the Hussein WH should come as no surprise to anyone with even an iota of common sense. When you look at the cast of characters, it is a wonder that any TRUTH leaks out from under the lies.
Come to think of it, the only person who DOES tell the truth is Biden, and that is by accident.
Let Obama keep on goofing up. It may assure that he won’t be re-elected, I hope.
Darrel, let’s face the bald truth- Hussein is a liar- come on, lets hear you say it too- He is a LIAR, plain and simple.
Here’s what I’m praying for: that BHO will become a lame duck President because of his own idiocy and megalomania.
In addition, a beer party doesn’t an apology make. I do wish that Officer Crowley wouldn’t go, but apparently he is planning to — and with his family. **sigh**
Sure, I might as well- how often do you get a chance to visit the White House, no matter who the occupant is? AS for the controversy? It might go away, but since there will be an August recess, what else is everyone going to talk about?
I personally think it will be one of two things- this incident, (which proves that just because you have the gift of gab doesn’t mean that you should speak), and the Health bill, which is going to be torn apart noun by noun to find its weaknesses, and it has many.
Oh, and BTW, Barama does not know how to apologize, so a beer is as close as it gets.
Just remember, the current occupant is a renter, not a buyer.
You watch- after the beer, Sgt. Crowley will be arrested for drunk & disorderly by the Washington police, and get a beatdown in the Rose garden for” Visiting while White.”
On a related note, none of the participants will be drinking American beer, possibly because America has sold its Beer heritage to foreigners.
