Obama Asks: What Do I Do in This Job?

For three years, Swish Obama has reminded me of a game-playing schoolboy on summer vacation. He will devote his rare spare moments to marshalling dozens of no-chance excuses to wriggle out of household chores.

Swish has been polishing that talent in the White House since inauguration. He thinks up pretty darned transparent excuses to run away from governing, of which he has done so little it would fit in a backpack with room left for twin elephants.

As you would expect of someone who, at 50, never has held a meaningful job with visible results — following a pampered, pat-on-the-head childhood, Swish has no idea how to govern.

What does a President do?

How many hours does it take?

The Mystery of History

He never has studied history — Presidential or otherwise.

He has no notion of how his predecessors filled their days. Or who many of them were.

He would have to guess, hazily, at the century when Millard Fillmore served.

After stroking his chin until his snug skin loosened, he hit upon two brilliant ideas for passing his four White House years — speeches and traveling.

Those are the only pillars, the bare accomplishments, of his administration.

Seemingly congenial but innately shy to the extent he seems arrogant, it never has been his way — not as a boy, a young man, a mature man — to become involved.

Until the Herman Cain accusations bobbed up, the most talked-about topic in Washington was the mysterious 12-member supercommittee.

This was to be Swish’s brainstorm of the year. Forget blaming any of the 12 members. It failed principally because Swish avoided them as if they were former in-laws.

Not one time did this “leader” meet with them.

Astonishing.

When he is in trouble, his solution is to give a speech.

When a crisis arrives, he gives a speech.

No ideas. No scenarios. No leadership. No motivation.

Just like the Obamacare farce — he doesn’t know, any better than a red-faced farmer in Nebraska, what is contained within Obamacare.

Politics Is Different

But he is politically astute. Like a prostitute who takes care of her johns, he knows how to care for his pals, handing out waivers for Obamacare with the ease and devotion that the late Lubavitcher Rebbe distributed prized dollar bills to awestruck visitors.

A man who has more spare hours, days, months than an unemployed fellow, was too disinterested — he said he was too busy — to show the supercommittee how he wanted their job done.

He didn’t know how or what he “wanted” done.

Too busy giving hopelessly recycled speeches — (millionaires-billionaires, new revenue, middle-class-families, jobs, Republicans- are-obstructionists) to show the Dirty Dozen what they should be doing.

He doesn’t know.

He is visionless.

He is overwhelmed.

If we had elected a hound dog three years ago, our country would be in the same position it is today, possibly better off.

I cringe when I hear his television or establishment media toadies refer to his exceptional mind. At the maximum, it has graded out to adequate.

If it weren’t for the dignity of the office, you could stick a dunce cap on his over-rated, under-accomplished head.

One of the shrewdest minds in contemporary journalism is owned by Andrew Malcolm (http://news.investors.com/Article/593351/201112010754/obama-fundraiser-speech-needs-more-time.htm).

Late of the latimes.com, Mr. Malcolm smartly jumped to Investors Business Daily a few weeks ago.

Today he was writing about the latest of the 75 out-of-sight fundraisers the faux busy Mr. Obama has squeezed in since last April — a record for the planet.

Mr. Obama, remember, is a Jew-hater event though 78 percent of Jews voted for him in ’08, one of the Jewish community’s most shameful moments in modern times.

My favorite passage from Mr. Malcolm’s essay today provides us with a shining sample of President Obama’s dishonesty, if not outright ability to openly, blatantly lie. At one fundraiser yesterday he said:

“Oh, and about Israel:

“ ‘This administration — I try not to pat myself too much on the back — but this administration has done more in terms of the security of the state of Israel than any previous administration.”
