This guy nails it. Obama is a complete failure and he has nobody to blame but himself.

Today’s quiz: What do Vladimir Putin’s aggression and ObamaCare’s troubles have in common? OK, that was too easy.

It is impossible to dismiss as mere coincidence the Russian Bear’s invasion of Ukraine and the continuing mayhem of the Affordable Care Act. In their own ways, each reflects the full flowering of the policies of Barack Obama.

His chickens are coming home to roost, and what a mess they are making.

Obama’s sixth year in the White House is shaping up as his worst, and that’s saying something. He’s been in the Oval Office so long that it is obscene to blame his problems on George W. Bush, the weather or racism. Obama owns the world he made, or more accurately, the world he tried to remake.

Nothing important has worked as promised, and there is every reason to believe the worst is yet to come. The president’s casual remark the other day that he worries about “a nuclear weapon ­going off in Manhattan” inadvertently reflected the fear millions of Americans have about his leadership. Not necessarily about a bomb, but about where he is taking the country.

We are racing downhill and he is stepping on the gas. Will he stop before the nation crashes?

Ideologues love to dream, and some do it eloquently. Robert Kennedy famously said: “There are those who look at things the way they are, and ask why . . . I dream of things that never were, and ask why not?”

Mario Cuomo, no slouch at dreaming, nonetheless offered a caveat, saying, “You campaign in poetry, you govern in prose.”

Obama hasn’t figured out the difference. Even more alarming, he shows no signs of trying to learn. In the ways of the world, he remains a know-it-all rookie.

The view from his faculty lounge has no space for reality. Anything that doesn’t fit the grand plan is dismissed as illegitimate. So while global hot spots multiply and the world grows dangerously unstable, the president still plans to slash the military.

His trip abroad last week further secured his reputation for historic ineptitude. It wasn’t that the trip was a disaster — it never rose to that level. His presence and his promises simply made no difference.

He failed to move the European Union toward a firmer stance on Russia, created bizarre headlines by differing with the Vatican over what he and the pope discussed, and got not-so-veiled threats from the Saudis about Syria and Iran.

He could have stayed home and not done worse.

No president can win ’em all, but Obama’s foreign-policy record is unblemished by success. From east to west and north to south, America’s standing and influence have declined universally.

It is impossible for a US president to be irrelevant, but Obama is testing the proposition.

The frequent reports that Putin laughs when Obama warns of consequences can’t be far from the truth. Otherwise, Putin would be cautious instead of carving up neighbors and massing his military. It was also noteworthy that, after their Friday phone talk, ­Putin copied the Vatican and put out his own version of the discussion. Two can play the spin game, he seemed to be saying.

ObamaCare is the domestic expression of the president’s ineptitude. The law that was supposed to fix health care has become a problem for millions, and now enjoys mere 26 percent approval, a poll finds. It is proving so unworkable that the White House has given up defending it as written and instead simply changes key provisions when they prove impossible to implement or politically inconvenience.

WTF took people so long to realize it, and WTF is the matter with the 40% who still approve of the job he is doing?

Well, hard to not like Santa Claus and his government checks.

For some reason I think Tommy IS President Obama. They share the same thinking.

But it was racist to say that he wasn't qualified to be president. What did he ever accomplish as a community organizer or state senator? It's obvious that he has no idea what he's doing and all of us who were called racist and closed minded are being proven right in our assertions everyday.

His solution to the Crimea will be the foreign policy of his solution to his ACA debacle. He will change the rules, and declare victory.

he will agree to remove the (meaningless) sanctions on Putin's new wife's hairdresser and extend forever the ban on defensive missiles in Czech. and Poland. in return Putin will pull his troops back for the border of eastern Ukraine. Obama will declare a spectacular victory (Putin blinked!), joe biden will make some embarrassing historical reference (biggest stare down since the Cuban missile crisis!), and the obamites will pray to Allah that everyone forgets that they just capitulated on the armed invasion of Crimea.

Yeah, he sure did. His IRS audit will probably start next week.

. . . And the NSA will be sending the jilling shots his girlfriend texted him to his wife.

He's not a failure. He is the first President that does not think we are an exceptional nation and surrounds himself with people who feel the same way. Most polling from around the world indicates that the world does not think we are a strong or exceptional as we were just 6 years ago.

Mission accomplished.

No liberals coming to O's defense?

Obama has no defense.

Yep...He is the most successful Socialist to ever gain power in Washington. He is a hero to their cause. I hope they are happy.

This is a president who wants to put Dinesh Dsouza in jail but truly does not care about Americans getting murdered in Benghazi.
IT is the truth, they really could care less, same for Hillary, all she wants is power.

I find such an article convoluted.

What would any president do about Ukraine? It's not our business, and frankly the Crimeans had legitimate complaints.

What is more straightforward is that obama does not uphold the Constitution. That's the oath he took. He not only doesn't uphold it, he violates it.

That simple, straightforward, and much more easily demonstrated to be a problem w/ obama (and FOR US citizens) than what's going on in the Ukraine, E. Timor, or Venezuela.

Not "God bless Obama," but "Go.d DA.MN Obama!"
