Draggingtree Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 What Has Obama Learned? By Jonah Goldberg · September 26, 2012 The Oval Office isn't the place to learn on the job. That was the line from both Hillary Clinton and John McCain in 2008. In fairness, that's always the argument the more experienced candidate uses against the less experienced candidate (just ask Mitt Romney). But Barack Obama seemed a special case, easily among the least experienced major-party nominees in U.S. history. A Pew poll in August 2008 found that the biggest concern voters had with Obama fell under the category of "personal abilities and experience." In a "change" year, Americans swallowed those concerns and voted for the change candidate. Four years later, it's worth asking, "What has Obama learned?" Several journalists have asked that exact question. And Obama's answers raise another question: Can Obama learn? snip Then, last week, in an admirably tough interview on the Spanish-language network Univision, http://patriotpost.us/opinion/14866 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 What Has Obama Learned? That its really cool to be President, you get to go on all kinds of nice vacations to great places, you get to travel on Air Force One, everyone listens to what you have to say and a lot of them think what you say is profound, the MSM even acts like what you say is true and insightful, Chris Matthews wants to have your baby and is willing to fight Ed Schultz over it. Partying with the secret service is great especially when You Know Who isn't around nagging you. If you don't want to talk to someone you just blow them off and there's not a damn thing they can do about it. Telling Nancy Pelosi jokes with David Axlerod is a lot of fun...especially when You Know Who isn't around nagging you. Smoking cigarettes is classified so that You Know Who doesn't find out. In Short...Its Good To Be King Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valin Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 Romney in Ohio Focuses on Manufacturing, Jobs BEDFORD HEIGHTS, Ohio — Governor Mitt Romney stopped in Northeast Ohio on Wednesday afternoon to host a manufacturing roundtable with local business leaders at the American Spring Wire Corp. in Bedford Heights. It was all part of the three-day “Romney-Ryan Plan For A Stronger Middle Class” bus tour across the State of Ohio. Earlier in the day, Romney’s tour bus stopped in Columbus before moving on to Cleveland. Romney’s roundtable discussion focused on manufacturing and local jobs. Mike Rowe, of the Discovery Channel’s ‘Dirty Jobs,’ was invited to speak at the event as well. Mike Rowe's Open Letter To Mitt Romney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollyannaish Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I love Mike Rowe. There are soooo many people openly endorsing Romney. Not just prominent people but local people. There is just no way Obama is as far ahead as polling is indicating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is just no way Obama is as far ahead as polling is indicating. He has stated yesterday morning on Bill Bennett's show that he is not endorsing Romney. He showed up because A. Romney invited him shortly after his open letter was published, B. It gives him a chance to talk about the Skills Deficit. You know how much a journeyman plumber makes... I'm thinking right around $80,000 a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draggingtree Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Once again, the alleged Catholic vote Sep 26, 2012 by Steve Thorngate Molly Worthen's call for a stronger liberal Catholic voice in the public square is a good and thoughtful read. But it's hard to let this go by: Allowing Republicans to claim the mantle of Catholicism might cost the Democrats the election. As commentators have noted, Catholics may be the nation’s most numerous swing voters. Sure, but http://www.realclearreligion.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
