#1 Good intentions and $1.50 will get Obama a cup of coffee just about anywhere.

#2 Obama clearly wishes to do good and means well."

Patent bullshit. Loathing of your own country and culture does equate to 'good intentions'.

"Les Gelb wrote of Obama, 'He is so self-confident that he believes he can make decisions on the most complicated of issues after only hours of discussion.' Strategic decisions go well beyond being smart, which Obama certainly is. They must be based on experience that discerns what works, what doesn'tand why.

Obama was a decidedly mediocre academic and seems incapable of recognising what 'works' in the world. Not a normal definition of 'smart'. It's more along the lines of 'unintelligent'.

The rest of the article is mostly on the mark though.

#3 Obama is ignorant, incompetent, arrogant, and completely oblivious to his own personal limitations. A VERY bad combination for a national leader.

#4 Obama: A Narcissist with Dunning Kruger.

#5 To me he seems pretty competent at expanding & fortifying his power base.

#6 Obama and his fans are always saying we should defer to world opinion. So, if the world thinks Obama's not up to the job, will he defer to their opinion and decline to run in 2012?

#7 Better yet, step down now.

#9 Where can I find actual PROOF this guy is bright? He's hidden just about everything in his past. Based on what I see he's a ruthless idealouge(SP?) dope. Why hide the transcripts if he's so damn bright?

#10 Hellfish, they're not hidden. They're just being stored securely in Al Gore's "lockbox", along with John F'n Kerry's military records, Rose Law Firm billing sheets, the real climate change data, and all of the other stories that the Legacy Media will investigate once they've done all the factchecking they need to do on Sarah Palin's OB file....
