Obama is doing a lot of things to damage America but that cannot be called incompetence because it is intentional. What has not been intentional are the many lapses of judgement we've seen in less than a year. Most recently, his response to the Ft Hood killings - cold indifferent and ho-hum. It might be that he secretly is happy when muslims kill Americans, but he did not intend to display it and that was the blunder and there is the incompetence.

I am being polite when I say incompetent. The alternative is much more disparaging.

True and valid points CJ and Ill.


Carter was certainly a buffoon, and obviously inept.
However I did not detect this level of sheer dishonesty from his hapless administration.

Carter was naive. Obama is inexperienced and a left wing radical. The epitome of naivete.

And which of us knew the truth about him before the election?? I did and almost every single one of my friends and associates did.

What a sad performance from Americas first half white president.

What a sad performance in being transparent.

What a sad performance from the dem controlled house and senate.

What a sad performance from all his supporters.

What a sad day fro we, the people.

It'll be a great day when we stop electing 'parties' and start electing people who will protect, preserve and defend our State and Federal Constitutions which are to protect the people.

It will be a great day when truth and honor are again the most sought-after forms of integrity.

We need to hold all liars and deceivers accountable to the crimes they have committed.

Until we do that- nothing will change.

If a government health plan is part of the deal "as a matter of conscience, I will not allow this bill to come to a final vote," Sen. Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn, said.


Joe Lieberman is THE MAN!!! One of the few politicians with some principles.

Lieberman is now being threatened with expulsion if he doesn't march in lockstep to the fascists drum beat. Here's what Lieberman had to say about that


I'm all for AIDS patients - and others who can't get affordable heath care - receiving treatment, but putting a gun to the heads of the insurance companies, and robbing the American public blind isn't the answer.

This socialist style health care bill will be killed when it goes to the senate and I applaud those who oppose it

And the same goes for the carbon tax and anything else these fringe radials try to shove down our throats

Critics say the president has left a huge loophole for himself on the issue of transparency

Obama Closes Doors on Openness


As a senator, Barack Obama denounced the Bush administration for holding "secret energy meetings" with oil executives at the White House. But last week public-interest groups were dismayed when his own administration rejected a Freedom of Information Act request for Secret Service logs showing the identities of coal executives who had visited the White House to discuss Obama's "clean coal" policies. One reason: the disclosure of such records might impinge on privileged "presidential communications." The refusal, approved by White House counsel Greg Craig's office, is the latest in a series of cases in which Obama officials have opted against public disclosure. Since Obama pledged on his first day in office to usher in a "new era" of openness, "nothing has changed," says David -Sobel, a lawyer who litigates FOIA cases. "For a president who said he was going to bring unprecedented transparency to government, you would certainly expect more than the recycling of old Bush secrecy policies."
The hard line appears to be no accident. After Obama's much-publicized Jan. 21 "transparency" memo, administration lawyers crafted a key directive implementing the new policy that contained a major loophole, according to FOIA experts. The directive, signed by Attorney General Eric Holder, instructed federal agencies to adopt a "presumption" of disclosure for FOIA requests. This reversal of Bush policy was intended to restore a standard set by President Clinton's attorney general, Janet Reno. But in a little-noticed passage, the Holder memo also said the new standard applies "if practicable" for cases involving "pending litigation." Dan Metcalfe, the former longtime chief of FOIA policy at Justice, says the passage and other "lawyerly hedges" means the Holder memo is now "astonishingly weaker" than the Reno policy. (The visitor-log request falls in this category because of a pending Bush-era lawsuit for such records.)
Administration officials say the Holder memo was drafted by senior Justice lawyers in consultation with Craig's office. The separate standard for "pending" lawsuits was inserted because of the "burden" it would impose on officials to go "backward" and reprocess hundreds of old cases, says Melanie Ann Pustay, who now heads the FOIA office. White House spokesman Ben LaBolt says Obama "has backed up his promise" with actions including the broadcast of White House meetings on the Web. (Others cite the release of the so-called torture memos.) As for the visitor logs, LaBolt says the policy is now "under review."
