Blame Obama believers

It’s time that we stop blaming Barack Obama for his incompetence as president of the United States. It’s not his fault that he is a narcissist. It’s not his fault that he believes that changing America is his fundamental right, or when he lied when he promised to be transparent and to eliminate special interest groups and lobbyists, or when behind closed doors, implemented a health care that can only be compared to the Keystone Kops, or when he lied and said that “you can keep your own doctor and health plan,” or when he condemned President Bush for raising the national debt by $4 trillion in eight years but yet he raised it by $7 trillion in six years.

It’s time to start blaming the citizenry for entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It would probably be easier to undo his incompetence than to restore the common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate.

Obama is a small-minded man, with neither the temperament nor the intellect to be president. The crises in the world and in this country prove it.

It’s time to stop drinking the Kool-Aid that he feeds the electorate.
