Frank Burns says:

Plain speaking is all we need against flowery oratory. There are no results to support the oratory. All this president has done is talk, flitting about the country making speeches and fund raising. He never learned the art of governance which includes negotiation and compromise. Have we ever in our lifetime heard a president with more excuses, blaming and whining? He just doesn't get it does he?

I'm inclined to believe that he does get it. obama is the golden boy groomed to destroy America and is doing exactly that with the aid and collusion of both democrats and republicans. Congress represents obama much more than they represent the people of this nation. It's called treason and sedition.
