He's been POTUS for 6 months and 2 days and he is holding his fourth- his FOURTH- prime time press conference.
This is the strategy of a man who does not know how to govern but rather excells at public engagement. He was, after all, a community organizer. I guess this is how they operate.
Funny how 2 years in the Senate made Obama an expert on so many things: healthcare, automotive industry, mortgage, environment, banking, small business. It's an amazing hubris of Caesarian proportians. Pompey would be a better example...
I was a few minutes late for this week's press conference but when I tuned in Obama was reminding everyone about "the past 8 years" and how many problems he inherited... yaaaaawn. That line is getting old, Barry. Besides being pretty much a lie, it's also a tired line.
Twice he has reminded the audience of the letters he receives. OK folks- let me be clear about someone who worked in the White House- POTUS does not look at those letters. He doesn't. He makes it sound like he sits at the Resolute Desk with a silver letter opener, cup of coffee on an eagle coaster, looking through the mail along with his comcast bill and pre-qualified credit card offers.
Thomas Sowell had a great piece yesterday about the "uninsured". Why are they uninsured? Are they poor? Well- that's what medicaid does. Who's left? People who opt-out? Not my problem. So who are these 47 million uninsured? Does anyone ask that?
