#1 does anyone remember a single line of "gifted oratory"? Does anyone take his recent bloviating seriously?

#2 He did it all by himself (with a little help from his friends and his party). It was not Bush's fault.

#3 This is not new. The conman always has his enablers. He can come back time after time to work his craft. What is different is he is allowed to continue. A really good conman moves on before he is caught. The difference here is he is a politician. An office he holds out of trust. He will never change.It is all he knows. He believes his own lies. Putin sees this and will walk all over him. The only proper solution is to have him removed from office. Even that might not be enough. His words are like the Medusa's head. You must cover your ears in his case.

#4 The only proper solution is to have him removed from office.

At the risk of sounding racist. Ninety plus percent of the African Americans voted for Champ. Some voted more than once. If Obama were impeached, due to criminality/incompetence, the country would never hear the end of it. Impeachment would be viewed as a legal lynching. The Republicans are not going to do anything about the situation. The Democrats are most certainly not going to either. Moreover, the press is completely enamored with "O." IMO were stuck with him until the next presidential election. The only hope for the country is that the makeup of the Senate will shift in 2014 and that the Pubs maintain control of the House. The Pubs might win control of the Senate but it is doubtful they will have a super majority. Even with control of the Senate, Obama can throw a wrench into the machinery of government with the veto and executive orders.

#5 Exactly correct JohnQC, and he [Champ] is keenly aware of it. He represents the zenith of Affirmative Action, entitlement, and stick to 'the man' intransigence.

I hope all those who sat at home and failed to vote, the guilt stricken white do-gooders, and feckless millennials who voted for him are up to the challenge of the next three years. It is going to be a very unpleasant ride.

#7 Again, it notsomuch what Russia + Iran + China, etc. do - ITS HOW POTUS OBAMA THE ALLEGED ANTI-US OWG MARXIST-ANARCHIST-GLOBALIST RESPONDS TO IT.

E.G. FREEREPUBLIC, TOPIX = PUTIN SENDS IN RUSSIAN ARMY TROOPS, OBAMA SENDS A "SELFIE".

The Death Star doesn't mean a thing iff Galactic Emperor Palpitine doesn't want it used agz Rebel Planets, now does it???

* NEW YORK TIMES > OBAMA SAYS "DEEPLY HELD GRIEVANCE" [fall/collapse of USSR] LED PUTIN TO CRIMEA [takeover].

D *** NG IT, MADONNA FANS KNOW THE TRUTH - GLENN BECK DIDN'T SHARE HIS ETCH-O-SKETCH + CHALKBOARD WID VLAD + DIMITRI AS CHILDREN ALL THOSE YEARS AGO!

[OWG BRIC GIRL PAULA "YOU GOT TO REMEMBER" ABDUL here].

#9 Frank G.,

It's a matter of perspective. The day America's first national cemetery was dedicated near a small Pennsylvania town, the main speaker was a gentleman named Edward Everett, renowned at the time as one of America's greatest orators.

Without going to Wikipedia, quote one line from his two-hour speech. :D

#10 I get that, Mike. Mr. Everett didn't have the benefit of a fawning media, the internet, cable channels, and a paid White House propaganda arm in MSM/MSNBC, BIRM

#11 The Pubs might win control of the Senate but it is doubtful they will have a super majority.

Don't need a super majority. With Harry Reid moved to the side, the Trunks can go back to the original process of the Legislative Branch and send the man individual funding bills for each department - or not. About the third or fourth one he vetoes in a petulant fit in demanding one all inclusive omnibus bill to fund it all, the more he'll paint himself into a position of either public humiliation or make a clear grasp for dictatorial rule. Given his personality, he'll try for the latter. The game is up then for his supporters. The facade will be gone. Even his MinTruth won't be able to cover it all up.

#12 P: Hello, President Obama?;
O: Yes.
P: This is Vlad Putin - howyadoin?
O: Not so well, my March Madness Brackets aren't working out so well, but at least "The Other Bear" (this is what I call Michelle when she is out of earsight, yuk, yuk), but how can I help you?
P: We're about to take over Poland. Just a little heads-up for you.
O: YOU CAN'T DO THAT! Valerie is in Hollywood and Hillary said she's not going to help me anymore.
P: Tough eggs bud'. Gonna' happen, er, maybe next week. We've got an Empire to put back together, you know what I mean?
O: But, you can't! Remember oceans no longer rising...cut off by Putin...
P: Look, Edward Snowden told a friend who told a friend, who, er, confessed to an associate of mine about how you guys were set up to fail in Benghazi. Would you like me to call...interrupted by Mr. Obama...
O: Now, now, lets not get hasty. Tell you what, we'll continue selling incredibly lousy insurance, and you and your friends enjoy the Bigos...
