If you have ever read this blog, you know that I am not a supporter of Barak Obama. Despite that, I started off, like most Americans (including those who voted for McCain or others), wishing him well and hoping for positive results for the country. At this point, however, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that President Obama is not up to the job.
The simple fact is that we elected a man who did not have sufficient experience or sufficient skill to be President. He campaigned skillfully, but now that he has had two years in office, we see that it was all tightly scripted smoke and mirrors. Left to his own devices, forced to make tough decision, asked to lead on divisive issues, he has proven to be the proverbial "empty suit".
Lately, this has become clear to many people. I have collected a number of articles below, by writers much more skilled than I, which outline some of the main criticisms of the President. Granted, the writers are conservatives who are no fans of Obama, but if you read the articles, you will recognize that they ring true.
Victor Davis Hanson of NRO: March 17th.
Mark Steyn of NRO: March 19th.
John Hinderaker of PowerLine: March 15th, March 18th, March 19th.
Charles Krauthammer of Fox News/WaPo/ NRO: March 11th, March 18th.
There were many more articles I could point to, but they all lead to the same conclusion. Jimmy Carter is starting to look good to a lot of people.
