Everywhere I go I see the same story, it's all about the complete lack of leadership from obama. Am I the only one who isn't surprised by this? I mean the papers are making out like they are shocked or something. This guy has never shown any leadership. He talks a lot of shit but never backs it up with anything, never. Why would they expect him to man up now? He doesn't know what to do, he is clueless, spineless and in way over his head. He does know how to ruin the hell out of economy though.
He showed no courage in Illinois when he voted present most of the time. He showed no courage when he ran from rev. wright during the campaign. It's a pattern of behavior. Instead of taking the high road, he prefers the easy road. All you democrats got what you voted for, a fancy suit that can read a teleprompter and nothing else...

Obama is defining himself in a way that will destroy him.
It is not merely that he isn't rising to the challenge. He is avoiding the challenge. He is Bartleby the President. He would prefer not to.
He has access to a microphone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If he tells the broadcast networks in the middle of the day that he has a major address to deliver on an unprecedented world situation, they will cancel their programming for him.
And yet, since Friday and a press conference in which he managed to leave the American position on Libya more muddled than it was before, we have not heard his voice. Except in a radio address -- he talked about education legislation.
And he appeared at a fund-raiser in DC. And sat down with ESPN to reveal his NCAA picks...
