Funny how they don’t say that about President Obama, If you been following President Obama there should be no doubt in the unbiased mind that he is in way over his head.

Now this isn’t saying he is stupid, a common line liberals would toss at President Bush, but rather his lack of experience is exposed for the world to see. And trust me, the world sees it. One just has to look at the actions of many governments, both allies and enemies to see this.

Peggy Noonan has an article out called He Was Supposed to Be Competent. Give it a read. Many people, myself included would have said He Was Supposed to Be Competent? We would have been surprised if he had shown competence.

Much is being made of President’ Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan. Why would the President pick someone like this; no judicial background, has argued case very few case, most notably Citizens United v, Federal Election Commission, and really no paper trail allowing people to get an idea as to what type of justice she would be? The answer can be found in the Citizens United case.

President Obama has criticized the Supreme Court for their ruling in this case. He saw it as the Court overturning not only the will of the people (which is debatable in this case) but also the will of Congress. Pretty amazing statement if you think about it and if you have any knowledge as to how the three branches of government are suppose to function.

The Supreme Court should not be looking at the “will” of anyone, especially Congress, to decide if a law is constitutional or not. Their main job is to look at the law, look at the Constitution, and decide if the two mesh together. If they do, the law is considered to have passed constitutional muster. Otherwise the law is struck done as being unconstitutional. Little more complicated then this, but in a nutshell this is how things are suppose to work.

Obama in this case wants Justices that will kowtow to a Congress currently being ran by Democrats and an agenda being pushed by a liberal President. Much like Franklin Roosevelt wanted with his attempt to pack the court. The downside of this is that the Constitution, the document dictates how our form of government should function, becomes meaningless.

President Obama and people like him want the supreme power of deciding what laws are right or wrong to reside in the other branches of government with the Supreme Court rubber stamping their approval. This is why Obama wants Kagan on the Supreme Court, she’ll be exacting the type of Justice that ignores the Constitution and will decide cases on what she thinks is best, not what is right.

Read this blog from the L.A. Times then remember this, there are moderate Muslims but there is no moderate in Islam.

President Bush while in office was often criticized for going golfing. The Main Stream Media (MSM) would let go in a chorus “How can the president go golfing when there is (insert crisis of the day here) going on?” While President Bush was in office we heard this from the MSM a total of 24 times over years.

Now we have President Obama in office. Doesn’t seem to be much of a golfer, the MSM hasn’t said peep about President Obama golfing. However President Obama within his first year of office has already been golfing 32 times. Housing crisis, financial crisis, Middle east crisis, those ca wait while the glorious one golfs. Hard for the MSM to criticize someone when their lips are planted firmly on their ass.

I don’t have an issue with the President golfing. Anything that is a true emergency would come to his attention and I’m sure he’ll act upon it instead of finishing up his 18 holes. This just once again shows what hypocrites we have in the “fourth branch” of government.

Going to hell in a hand basket is my second though on Rep. Hank Johnson’s comment about Guam tipping over if morepeople go there.

Do we really deserve idiots like this making decisions for us? Which begs the question, who are the idiots electing the idiots?

Maybe you should take a peek at some recent news across the pond:

Hundreds of NHS wards to be shut in secret plans

To save money, you shut things down. Don’t worry, I’m sure services won’t suffer.

Stafford Hospital caused ‘unimaginable suffering’

Doctor’s worried about costs, because the government tells them they got to meet the budget, and patients suffer.

If you don’t think the same things would happen here in the US once the government starts calling the shots then I got a ocean front property in Arizona to sell you.

Want to lower health care costs? Start allowing people to purchase insurance across state lines, do away with the minimum package an insurance company has to offer. As a single male insurance covering the cost of pregnancy is of little concern. Allow people to purchase insurance with pre-tax dollars. Just a few things the government could do to help lower health care costs.

What we all can do is get some  exercise, eat right, and get plenty of sleep. Since this involves personal responsibility I don’t have high hopes for it succeeding.

Hard to believe, unless you are one that has been looking at some of the actual data out there.

Climategate U-turn as scientist at centre of row admits: There has been no global warming since 1995

Take this, and how it was shown that evidence was withheld or suppressed that tended to shown global warming was not happening and it makes you really wonder about the actual science behind a lot of this. Of course most of it isn’t driven by science but rather by politics.

Leading up to the Super Bowl I was seeing lots of press about the “anti-abortion” message that would given by the Tim Tebow ad via Focus on the Family. I watched the ad during the game, and even again online after the game, to form my own opinion to this anti-abortion message.

Not once during the ad did I hear the word abortion used, nor anything hinting at an abortion message. Tim’s mom said it was rough. some tough choices were made, but here is her son. I guess talking about making tough choices mean you are anti-abortion to the media today.

President Obama calls the Supreme Court ruling easing campaign spending by corporations and labor unions “devastating”. Easing restrictions on free speech is devastating? Saying that the First Amendment protects political free speech for all Americans is devastating?

Funny how it is the Democrats, those that want to stand up for the rights of the people find this “devastating”.

Scott Brown wins Ted Kennedy’s old seat in the Senate despite the best efforts of the Democratic Party machine to smear him every way they could. Some of the Democrats were even comparing the frustration that people were feeling and thus turning to Brown as Bush’s fault. It would have been a huge surprise for Brown to lose this race given the lack of competence his opponent demonstrated.

Now though the Democrats are tripping over themselves to say he should be seated right away. No dummies, they know the people are pissed off at the people in charge (Democrats) and they don’t want to fan those flames and see huge losses. That still hasn’t stopped some Democrats from saying their lose in this election was due to people still being angry at Bush. One word to dscribe those people: Idiots.
