34. Saying President Obama is fucked up and inept is meaningless...

.... when you say it about EVERY. THING. HE. DOES. OR. SAYS. EVER.

"The President wants _X_? Then we are against _X_ because _X_ is stupid, dangerous, and wrong for America!"

"Wait, what? You mean he really wanted _Y_ after all? Then we are against _Y_ because _Y_ is stupid, dangerous, and wrong for America! (And so is his obvious flip-flopping!)"

That's why the right has zilch credibility except among its most ardent sycophants.

The right is, generally, bereft of ideas and is merely self-absorbed in its radical knee-jerk reactionary posturing. Their entire national policy position is: 1) Wait and see what Obama seems to want to do, and b) oppose it. Nothing pro-active about the GOP at all.
