Time for Thorns

An independent view on life.

Obama, op-ed writer…

“Rebuilding Something Better” — that’s the title of Obama’s op-ed today in the Washington Post.

The title rubbed me the wrong way,  and the whole piece is a whine by His Oneness that the fiscal mess isn’t his fault,  never mind that every action he has taken seems designed to make it worse.

Stephen Spruiell presents a brutal annotation of the piece.

I don’t imagine His Oneness actually wrote any of the column, but it reminds me of all the jobs his job-killing,  wealth-destroying actions were going to create,  and then it was all the jobs they would save or create.    Now he is positioned to take credit for any economic recovery,  which will most certainly be in spite of his policies,  not because of them.

Obama is a skilled politician,  but a disastrous leader,  unless you like following lemmings hurdling over cliffs.

Keith Hennessey has also taken a meat cleaver to the op-ed.
