Thanks Bob!

There’s nothing I can’t stand more than thin-skinned brats who are incompetent and in charge!

Great post. Snyder and Obama are walking disasters. The good thing is that the oppressed (Redskins fans and frustrated Americans) are standing up to the tyranny.

Question: Is there a Thomas Paine of football?

First off, Curt, thanks for posting!

@Yippie21: I didn’t go into Snyder’s business practices lest I came off like a bitter former employee or someone who was floating a balloon for a potential tell-all book. My understanding is that Snyder had backing from his family to get started, and along the way ran some pretty cut throat business practices, some of which I saw. Here is a link to info on SNC’s settlement with GTE and the State of Florida over a suit for slamming:

Excellent comparison.

My football analogy regarding Obama is that he has a pampered athlete’s lack of connection with the real world. From his early adulthood people have seen his charismatic potential as a leader of the left and smoothed his path through life. From his college years on it seems that he has been insulated by the connected from failure or even criticism. I hope he gets a chance to taste rejection in 2012.

Good job there Brother Bob. Good points and all on point…. except at least Snyder earned his money running a company?.. or was it inherited wealth? I don’ t know on Snyder, but the rest of your take on him seems spot on.

Our Dear Leader however is worse. He has schemed and waxed his climb, never really doing squat. It’s all about flim-flam.. nothing there though. He’s never had to deliver results ever because everything was always a springboard to better things.

Now he is stuck. Nowhere to go now. He’s finally, in a position of doing a job and it’s painfully clear he is overwhelmed and unprepared to actually perform.

He is stuck in campaign mode because campaign mode always is forward-looking and based upon hope and unknowns. He can’t settle into day to day mode or strategic mode because he’s never done it in his life.

The story of him unable to meet his first book deadlines until Ayers helped him out speak volumes… even after he went overseas to “work on the book”. He’s never had a real job having to deliver something from his effort EXCEPT campaigning the last few years…. and he has had a lot of enablers and hanger-ons to propel him. B.O. is a FAIL TO LAUNCH.

The dust up of Obama with Sarkosy of France reminded me of a beauty queen when asked what would she do if she had one wish? Of course all of the contestants answer that they would HEAL the world from misery and disease. Obama changed it a little bit to say “Rid the world of nuclear weapons”. Thats when Sarkosy said that maybe in a virtual world but never in the real world. Obama is so much like a beauty queen that it is staggering. Lets all work together to give the crown to a new queen in three years!
