This is one scary story in the London Daily Telegraph and if true should make any Obamiac have some doubts about this guy being up for the job of President of the United States.
The fact that the State Department, in the hands of another rank amateur in Hillary Clinton, can not do better than running down to the White House Gift Shop to get a gift for the British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown is insulting. So is this tidbit by some two-bit State Department flunky:
The official dismissed any notion of the special relationship, saying: "There's nothing special about Britain. You're just the same as the other 190 countries in the world. You shouldn't expect special treatment."
Outstanding! Maybe this flunky was just overwhelmed. Kind of like his big boss. Or maybe said flunky was exhausted. Again, as is the big boss.
The article was damning in citing that President Obama is overwhelmed by the economic "crisis" and is not getting enough rest. In the same article it cited an article in the this past Thursday's New York Times about a "graying" President Obama.
Hey, Mr. President! You campaigned for 19 months for this job. You wanted it so badly that you pretty much did and said anything that was on the teleprompter if you thought it would get you a few more votes. So what now you realize that being the president is a tough job? Hey, about watching as 3,000 Americans are murdered in a single day by blood-thirsty Islamofacist terrorists. Now, that is stress. Having to make equally tough decisions to go to war to defeat these thugs. That is stress. What about the decisions that all the past presidents of the United States have had to make?
Methinks that President Obama is whinning. WHHHHAAAA! WHHHHAAAA! It is not an easy job! WHHHHAAA! WHHHHAAAA!
Please!
Mr. President, you have only been in office two months. Things do not go all that quickly. It is not easy, no matter who the president is, to get any part of an agenda through. There is no instant gratification, especially when dealing with the economy and its current state.
But the fact that those under you, the people who work in the State Department and should know much better how to handle the diplomatic niceties can not handle it shows that maybe it is a reflection of who is in charge.
One has to really wonder how the people of this nation got suckered so easily into believing that this candidate with no serious political experience other than a second-rate state senator from Illinois, would be a different kind of president.
I still believe that it was Bush Fatigue Syndrome.
Most Americans wanted to take a break, so to speak, in the War Against Islamofacist Terror. Most wanted a change. And they did not care who it was as long as there was a D after the last name. And, in that sense I can not blame those Americans. I do not try to insult the voter outright. And I will not here.
I really think that if this is the sign of President Obama, we are in for a long rest of his term.
Provided he does not up and resign over exhaustion and being overwhelmed.

I hope he takes a nap before he negotiates with the Taliban. They don't suffer fools well.
President Bush had made the comment to the effect that the job as President was bigger than the person holding the job. Of course, Obama is exhausted and overwhelmed. Yet, as you say, HE campaigned to be President. He made his decision. Now, it is time to deal with the consequences of that decision.
Sounds like the State Department needs to take some lessons in communication and tact.
As always, great post!
He thought George W. Bush was a boob. He thought the job was easy. That's what inexperience brings.
"Methinks that President Obama is whinning."
We got plenty of advance warning about that trait during the campaign, didn't we?
"It is not easy, no matter who the president is, to get any part of an agenda through. There is no instant gratification ..."
Ah, but he's USED TO Illinois/Chicago style politics where you pays your money and you gets your results. So far, he's paid the money (to the tune of trillions) ... We're still waiting for the results.
He could always resign if the job is too tough.
Hold that..........Biden as president?
I've reconsidered. May Obama enjoy good health and serve out his first (and hopefully) only term.
What did people expect from a guy with less administrative experience than your local Girl Scout troop leader?
