Obama gives BP 48 hour deadline
Obama has given British Petroleum 48 hours to come up with more capacity to contain the leak that has now in its 8th week.

Obama likes to project
When I say Obama likes to project, I don’t mean he likes to talk loud. What I mean is that he is taking our emotions and analysis on how he is performing and projecting it back on to us. He never criticizes the American people, or at least he usually doesn’t. Instead he always seems to...

Obama already backs out of doing a climate deal in Copenhagen
Obama has now conceded that there will not be a deal signed in Copenhagen. Instead, they will meet in Denmark to go ahead and talk about what they won’t be doing. I have got to say that I am more than pleased with this decision. The cap and trade bill would be a disaster, and even Obama knows...

Obama bows before Japan’s Emporer
The best part about news that comes out over the weekend, is having time to contemplate how the media is going to spin the story.

Obama focusing on “Don’t ask don’t tell”, while Afganistan mires in conflict
Last night, Obama made a speech to the 13th human rights campaign. In it he made the following remarks:
I’m here with you in that fight.
My commitment to you is unwavering.

Saturday Night Live Spoofs Obama
It was a mostly harmless skit, showing the repeated failures of the Obama administration. Even if the guy was a experienced administrator, with a driven agenda, and a crack team, he would have to find time in his schedule of parties and trips abroad to get anything accomplished.
This period of time...
