Obama Smack Talk: “I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking”
Street Punk POTUS
Un-presidential. Uncouth. Uninspiring.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. “You may be able to take the trash talking punk turned dirty pol out of Chicago, but you can not take the trash talking punk turned dirty pol out of the man”
The Obama Administration’s silencing of dissent is becoming a recurring theme. Red flag people.

“But I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking.”
Obama’s trash talk is conspicuously absent from the official White House release.
The only portion of entire speech that contains the word “mess”
And so in that kind of environment, wherever the incumbent party is, it’s always going to have some challenges. Even if people, when they really stop to think about it, recognize that this is mostly a mess that was inherited, people are still going to, rightly, hold the party in power responsible. What’s your plan? What’s your agenda? How are you going to move the state forward?
Obama leans on his Bush crutch far to much. When will he stand up on his own two feet?
Obama uses him for an excuse each time he speaks. At least once, usually several times. I count three instances while O was speaking in Raleigh NC. How can he blame Bush on a recurring basis and not spend his time looking backwards and making excuses? Obama the illogical One.
And that’s right and proper, because we can’t spend all our time looking backwards or making excuses. Our job is to look forward and to determine how are we going to, regardless of what cards we’re dealt, how are we going to make sure that families here in Virginia and all across America are able to succeed.
Talk is cheap.
Clean up the ‘mess’ in your own back yard.
