Obama told his lapdog Matt Lauer last night, “I’m getting better as time goes on.”
The Hill reported:
During an interview that aired Monday on NBC’s “Today” show, President Obama said that he gets “better as time goes on” at his job and that he believes the grassroots movement that propelled him to victory in 2008 will help him win a second term.
“What’s frustrated people is that I’ve not been able to implement every aspect of what I said in 2008. Well, it turns out our Founders designed a system that makes it more difficult to bring about change than I would like sometimes. But what we have been able to do is move in the right direction,” Obama said.
Really?
Then could you please explain this.

” ‘Well, it turns out our Founders designed a system that makes it more difficult to bring about change than I would like sometimes.’ ” Darn those Founding Fathers all to Heck, anyway. (Actually, it’s a good thing our system is more difficult to change than Obama wants. Can you imagine where he’d be taking us, otherwise?)

IMPEACH!

I dispute greatly that he’s getting better, but in any event I resent the whole idea of giving on-the-job training to anyone in THAT position.
America lost its mind in November 2008.
Sanity could return this coming November,

He’s right. In 2011, he didn’t screw up the worst oil spill in U.S. history like he did in 2010.
In 2011, his Justice Department didn’t sell assault weapons to a Mexican drug cartel that was used to murder a U.S. Border Patrol Agent like he did in 2010.
In 2011, he didn’t have to spend millions of taxpayer dollars to openly bribe members of Congress to pass a failed health care bill like he did in 2010.
In 2011, he didn’t dismiss charges against members of the Black Panther Party for violating voters’ rights like he did in 2010.
In 2011, he didn’t bail out Chrysler and GM and force them to buy Italian-S***box manufacturer Fiat. He did that in 2010.
In fact, the more Republicans we send to Washington, the better he gets.

I’m pretty sure we all know… you don’t say this kind of strange stuff unless you know deep down that you’re a loser, the American people know you’re a loser, and you have zero capacity to stop being a loser.

Because quite frankly, he still sucks now, if not even more so.

America after Obama
Millions of Americans, however, have finally had enough. A counterrevolution is rising to a level rarely seen in our history. There hasn’t been this intensity of grassroots activity since the abolitionist movement of the 1850s. People are making themselves visible in the community. They are organizing rallies and call-in campaigns. They are studying the Constitution, and they will not be silenced by charges of racism or any other falsehood uttered by the left.
And when the new president is sworn in, collective relief will be felt across the land. But the long and hard road to recovery will have only begun. Whether America avoids financial collapse will be uncertain for years to come.
For a government that borrows 36 cents of every dollar it spends, the math is simple. We will need real cuts to the federal budget near 36 percent to survive. Factor in modest economic growth, and perhaps the cuts could be 30 percent. But failure to make real cuts on this scale risks runaway inflation and disaster. Any way you look at it, people’s pain will be deep, and it will be real.
With Obama gone and the threat of reprisals removed, people will begin to talk, and eventually the truth about Obama’s mysterious past will come out. What was hidden, scrubbed, and not vetted in 2008 — including his grades, his college records, his passport, his personal associations, and yes, even his birth — will all be exposed. It is all just a matter of time. The duplicity and deceit to be uncovered will shock even his most ardent supporters.
Who knows? A pariah status could very well attach itself to Obama on a level reserved for few individuals in American history. Obama could be regarded as the Benedict Arnold of our time. The masses may come to shun him, and rightly so. If there is poetic justice in this world, this will be his legacy.
November is not just another election; it is a seminal moment in American history. If Obama is re-elected, expect ObamaCare to stay, the debt to crush us, our defenses to be laid bare, Iran to get the bomb, and at least two liberals to be named to the Supreme Court. If Obama is re-elected, America as we know it will be gone forever. Collapse will be certain.
For true hope and true change, perhaps we should try returning to a limited constitutional government. We all need to be involved. Whether or not we can turn around the disaster Barack Obama has foisted upon us hinges first on removing him from office. Now is the time to go about the work of doing just that. This is the year, folks. Buckle up. It’s going to be a rough ride.

My opinion is that we have seen these past 3 years a novice who knew nothing about running this nation. He used his Salinsky training to change America. No experience in foreign affairs and none in Government. He is a person still in training we are the guinea pigs and the founding fathers would be turning over in their graves.
Stuart commented:
Yes comrade. America get better and better, just like Comrade Obama. Soon have true Communism. Everyone be equal. America soon be workers paradise. Just need one more term.. and one more after that.
RedBeard commented:
Reminds me of what an old farmer told me once, as I was criticizing Congress for corruption. He said, “Now son, not everyone we elect to Congress is crooked. [pause] But give ‘em time.”
Well, America can’t afford to give Obama more time to perfect his tactics on destroying the country.

President Claims “Jesus Would Vote for Me”
In a bid to capture the evangelical vote, President Obama boldly asserted that his programs are based on the teachings of Jesus and that “if he were alive, Jesus would vote for me.” Obama’s remarks were made this past week at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington.
“Jesus instructed his followers to render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s,” Obama recalled. “What could more clearly be Caesar’s than money. Money is issued by the government. Both in Jesus’ time and now, money has been adorned with the likenesses of governing officials. God’s will is plain: money and its distribution is the within the scope of government’s authority. Opposition to this is what is ungodly.”
Not only is government control over the distribution of money in accord with God’s commandments, it also aids in the salvation of those it dispossesses the President contended. “Look, Jesus told us that it would be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven,” Obama said. “So, by relieving the wealthy of their excess money, the government would also be helping them get into heaven.”
“Jesus also said that to whom much is given, much shall be required,” Obama remembered. “A society in which everyone does what he is able to do and in return receives what he needs would implement this ideal. Turning this ideal into a reality is my ambition for America.”
The President’s supporters in Wisconsin sought to assure him that Jesus would, in fact, be voting for him in their come November. Bolstering their confidence was the appearance of Jesus’ signature on multiple copies of the petition to recall Republican Governor Scott Walker.
In related news, Saying that the $16 trillion national debt is “hampering the government’s fiscal flexibility,” President Obama suggested “privatization might prove a way out from under this load.”
Under the plan, each person in America would be issued a prorated share of the debt (about $49,000 apiece). “Those that could afford to pay would pay,” Obama said. “Those who couldn’t would file for bankruptcy and have the debt expunged. The government would have a debt-free balance sheet for the first time in our nation’s history.”

Obama is getting better as time goes on – better at destroying the U.S. and getting his own way at every turn. Executive orders have to be the worst thing for the U.S. ever. Why give so much power to one man is beyond logical.

Official: Egypt’s presidential election advanced
Egypt’s top election official says voting for a new president will be
brought forward from June, in line with demands by protesters. That
could mean a new Egyptian constitution would be drawn up under a
civilian government.
Election commission chief Abdel-Moez Ibrahim told the Egyptian daily
Al Ahram did not set a date for the election, but he said nominations
for presidency would be accepted March 10, a month earlier than the
original date.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE.
CAIRO (AP) _ Egypt on Monday released the names of 19 Americans
who face trial over foreign funding of activities of their nonprofit
groups in Egypt, a case that has soured U.S.-Egypt relations.
One of the 19 is the son of U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. Sam LaHood and five other Americans are in Egypt while the others have left, according to a statement from the Egyptian prosecutor’s office.
Altogether, 43 people face trials over illegally operating in Egypt and receiving funds from abroad without permission from Egyptian authorities for their human rights and pro-democracy groups. Egypt charges that they fund and support anti-government protests. The groups deny that.
Washington has reacted angrily to the case, which started with raids last month on the offices of the groups. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has warned it could jeopardize U.S. aid to Egypt, which amounts to more than $1billion a year.
On Monday the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, said the U.S. citizens involved in the dispute have been working to build a more democratic society in Egypt and “have done absolutely nothing wrong.”]

re With Obama gone…
I hate to dispel your optimism and/or credulity, but Obama has no intention of going away. He intends a second term and to hell with what the bitter clingers want and thanks to the Republican elites choosing Romney aka McCain deja vu a second term for bin Obama is almost guaranteed even in an election with no fraud and vote buying. And after his second term our poor America will be the gone one, not Obama.. then there is Michelle who has said she will run in 2016 and using the same divisive racist politics against the same GOP elite candidates as her First Man did she will be president until 2024 and totally complete the wrenching transformation of the U.S. into Detroit.. then there is Malia or Sasha who will be president from 2024 to 2032… can you say Obama family dynasty? And after President Malia or Sasha Obama there will be FITB Democrat candidate.. Depressing prospect, eh? It can be prevented if Obama is a one termer but who are the GOP elites picking for we the people? Yes, Romneycare.

obama to Matt lard, things are getting better. obviously USA Today didn’t get the WH talking points memo, because their front page story reads, “Gas prices likely to go to $4.05 per gallon this spring.

Ah, the benefits of on-the-job-training. Wouldn’t it be grand if all important jobs were filled by nincompoops without any relevant previous experience, training or credentials? I am thinking of policemen, firemen, airplane pilots, dentist, doctors, especially surgeons, etc.
Sure you are “better,” Obama. For example you probably know your way around the White House better that you did three years ago, and you probably know where all of the bathrooms are by now. And you are better at throwing big bashes and wasting the taxpayers’ money in myriad frivolous and stupid ways. And I imagine your golf game has improved by now, at least it’d better be better.
Yes, you are better, but you are still the worst president ever. And we the people certainly cannot afford enough of your on-the-job-training to change that, as if that were even possible, considering your fundamental super-snotty attitude toward this country that has taken you in as an immigrant.
