From American Thinker: Half a President
Posted on 05. Oct, 2009 by James Devere in American Politics
Steve McCann of the American Thinker has brought a new perspective to a question that has perplexed many on the right: Barack Obama spends so much time on the road and on our television sets that one wonders what he is doing to run the country. How does Obama view his role as president: as a leader, as the chief executive of the country, or as a figurehead? Below are some exerpts from Steve Mcann’s article:
“President Obama apparently wants to do only half of his job — the part that is the most fun. And he’s got his eyes on a higher position.”
“It appears that Barack Obama views himself as the head of state only. As such he cannot be bothered with the day to day responsibility of governance. He is, in his narcissistic world, above all that; thus he delegates the writing of the Stimulus, health care and other major bills to Nancy Pelosi, puts off any decisions on Iran and Afghanistan, appoints czars with power to spend and set policy and prefers to spend his time on television speaking to the huddled masses.”
