Snip:
Obamas Top Boners of 2011
John Ransom
Sign-Up Sure, limiting the list to the nine worst mistakes of the Obama administration in a year that saw so many of them was a tough proposition. But in the spirit of Christmas, I decided to be merciful and not pile on. Plus, you know, I have company coming over.
So for now, nine will have to do.
Why nine?
Quoting Bluto from Animal House sans burp: Why the hell not.
Ive included links and snippets from my columns addressing each topic:
9) Sending a budget to Capitol Hill that didnt get one vote:
Calculate the man-hours that went into presenting to Congress a budget that didnt muster even one vote in the Senate. If that didnt cry out that Obama is a one-term president, certainly the rest of the years events did. The question that I have for the political geniuses at the White House is: After getting elected primarily on the strength of the financial crisis, how could you be so ignorant of fiscal issues? Nothing better represents the disconnect between Washington and the rest of the country as Obamas attitude towards passing a budget. They didnt even pretend to take the process seriously. And then they thought no one would notice.
See: Obama Goes Doh!-for-97, 98, 99, 100!
Mr. Irrelevant, the man formerly known as president, was in France when news came that the Senate unanimously rejected the Jerry Lewis gag budget that the administration submitted to Congress in February.
The vote was 0-97 against, with three Senators voting not present.
Can you blame them?
If John Kerrys misshapen theme was Reporting for Duty, Obamas is: Im AWOL: Ha. Ha. Ha. You cant catch me.
If Kerrys presidency was still-born, Obamas died of crib-death.
Can you imagine any other president in history being satisfied with sending up a budget that couldnt muster even one vote from his own party?
8) Predicting the economic recovery:
