    In response to another post that I started on Friday (Obama Acting Beneath His Pay grade - 1/30) donnA responded that Obama "doesn't know what his paygrade is, that"s apparent."

    To which I responded: "That's one possibility... poor guy, as tall as he is, he's in way over his head, yet he continues to thrash around while the current of public opinion drags him out to deeper water!"

    The more I thought about my response, the more I thought that it needed to be a "Lead Post" in order to gather input and feedback as to what you folks thought.

    Is it possible that Obama's lack of Executive experience is what is causing him to be dragged down deeper, and deeper with each action, or, non-action, he does from within the Oval Office?

    And, if his inexperience is what's causing him to sink deeper, and deeper into ocean of public despair, will he be the victim of his own inexperience when 2012 arrives?

    :wavey:So what do you think? And, I thank you ahead of time for your precious comments, feedback, and wisdom, as you provide valuable imput for others on the BB... to react to!:wavey:

    Shalom,

    Pastor Paul :type:

    Based on what I saw of him prior to becoming POTUS, I think he is a shrewd and calculating marxist, and probably even a strong (I know his obvious tendency is such) Muslim.

    To me it is evident that he, along with all his marxist compatriots, is wanting to completely destroy this nation as we know it, so as to create his version of UTOPIA -IE: socialistic.

    I have seen NOTHING that he has done that remotely tells me that this nations welfare is of concern to him. Quite the contrary in fact!!!!

    As to a lack of experience - I do think that if he had had any idea of the backlash his policies would have created he would have tried implementing them differently, BUT he would have pursued the same agenda, just a bit more discreetly.

    That being said, I don't look for him to modify his "governing" (I use this term very loosely!!) other than to be even less open than he has been. His ego will not allow him to admit mistakes and change course except in his famous speeches - at most.

    Oh, and also - can't buy your "POOR GUY" description. This is akin to trying to save a baby rattlesnake that don't have his mama nearby. To try to pick up the "cute little fella" is to invite a vicious & venomous bite.

    While inexperience will be a factor, I don't see this as being of any meaningful consequence come '12. His biggest downfall will be his arrogance, ego, and extreme bias & lack of wisdom in selecting folk of questionable integrity to who's advice he now listens.

    Only If We Let It Be...

    We can't be victims if we don't let him move successfully on his agenda. He is a scary person.

    I Agree With All You Wrote



    What can we do, accept pray that he be removed as quickly as possible, wighout him making the kind of changes that tear this nation down?

    I think you are right on in all your observations, and I only used "poor guy" in jest! I have NO sympathy for Obama, and I pray that he fails in everything he attempts to bring forth. Prayer is our only hope, until 2012. Then we can boot him out and back to his progressive-liberal-muslim loving buddies.

    Thank God for Fox News. They are keeping this nation informed. Thank God for folks like you and the Reverend. Even Capro. And the list could go on forever. There are a lot of BB folks that see him for what he is, and that gives me tons of hope! Keep :praying:

    I think you're absolutely correct. What BO is doing to our nation is carefully planned and executed. I can only wonder how much damage he and his friends of change will do before people wake up and vote them out.

    Sadly, if Brown is any indication, we'll not be given a real choice in the next Presidential election (if we make it that far).... and not much of one in most primaries and local and state elections between now and then.

    Brown as Green as Obama

    To float Brown as the next POTUS candidate in 2012 would be as much a mistake as Obama in 2008.

    There are better folks available, and we need to pray for that person to come to the surface in the next 12 months...
