Krauthammer: Obama "May Not Have the Capacity or the Will" to Save His Presidency By Moving Center

[leilajeremiah]

thanks for sharing….

[Marine4Life51]

If anything, Obama has moved to the center. Just compare his campaign speeches to the actual legislation that this Congress has passed. Every piece is watered down with compromise compared what he wanted originally, and he's continued Bush's foreign policy for the most part. But I guess that's too apparent for blind fox news sheeple viewers to realize because fox is so good at distorting reality. His policies aren't so different from Clinton's, yet Clinton wasn't a "Muslim" or "Marxist."

[trueconservatie33]

@Marine4Life51 clinton signed welfare reform,"balanced budget", cut the taxes on capital gains, and eventually gave up many of his big social program promises

[uzimodem]

Charles always cuts it to the bone and main reason. Love it.

[MendingMedia]

Yes Obama should do what Fox news trys to con him into doing.

Like the rest of thier sheep.

[guilfoyle2008]

What a world of followers you all are, you deserve everything you'll get by believing in Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh..They are laughing at all of you from the top of their pile of gold...seems selling out America is very profitable...

[GOPofHawaii]

@guilfoyle2008 If Beck and Limbaugh are laughing at us, Olberdouche and Madcow already lit the fuse to the firecracker.

[plzwakeup]

Kill all sick people give all doctors guns or make all murderers doctors.

100% SUPPORT! Socialized education sucks too! Get rid of them all. Make em all private. And government sucks really. Why not get rid of a government? Government = Socialism

PRIVATE POLICE, SECURITY, AND MILITARY PLEASE. We don't want any public military either.

[Pattycakessmiles]

I'm going with ..Does Not Have the Capacity. Affirmative Action can't get him thru this time...he just hasnt got the brains to be president.

[iSAW7]

The Obama presidency is over. He in ineffectual at bringing reform. He is a coward in the face of terrorism. He has no influence overseas unless he is taking part in an "Idol" show, but even that support is waning. If treating KSM like the piece of trash he is, reigning in government spending, and demanding respect for America in the world stage is "moving right", then I guess he better start sprinting to the middle.

[newBelGum]

Obama doesnt care, he is doing what him and his radicals want to do at the expense of our country, he is purposely destroying this country

[gallomex13]

Why should he go center when the right wing bitches are going way way right, and if democrats are losing seats in congress has nothing to do with Obama but the dumb fuck democrats in those sits.

[zzx2847]

Obama is pulling a Chavez by trying to NATIONALIZE student loans under the federal government. Unfortunately, pulling private institutions out of the loan market will only make it impossible for college students to default on their loans if their education doesn't pay off. Say hello to big brother...

[Peacetoyouandyours]

Moving center? Hell Obama is to the right of Bush. Only Foxtards think he is a Liberal. Obama is a Corporate Whore and a Banker's Wet Dream. The only thing Obama might outdo Bush in is Body Count.

[mgoller1]

I agree with you completely. Republicans should love this guy. He is adding more troops in Afgan, he never pushed for "single payer", he wanted public option, but compromised on that, instead he is giving millions of new customers to insurance companies, I don't agree with Cap and Trade, but even if it passed it would only reduce emissions by less than 3% over the next 2 decades which scientists says we need close to 50%, Sorry guys, he is hardly a left wing liberal.

[USA4July1776]

I hope he goes Left... so we can get rid of him.

[joes805]

Fuck You Krauthammer, nobody gives a fuck what you have to say motherfucking GOPig, stupid republicunt

[jensen1901]

So you are saying there are 53 million college kids and minorities in America? Idiot. The majority of Americans, white, black, brown, old and young voted for Obama because he showed class and brains. Conversely, McCain and Palin took the low road. And btw the loss in Mass has nothing to do with Obama. It had everything to do with Coakley being a terrible candidate/running an awful campaign. That's it. You cons act like you won the Presidency. You didn't. Now all you do is cry and lie.

[naggold]

Yes the country is center right. Continuous Gallup polls show 40% conservative and just 20% liberal with the rest somewhere in between.

[jensen1901]

You must take into account that many who answered that question are conservative are also Democrats. There are many conservative Dems. Ever hear of the Blue Dogs? We have a big tent here on the left.

[renodude36]

President Obama may have inherited our finacial problem, but you don't help it by continuing to spend, by the end of his first and only term, it is projected that Obama will have spent more money than Bush did in his first term. Obama is not the answer to this countries problems.

[afferch]

The country is center right, says Krauthammer the extreme rightwing pundit. Obama's popularity has fallen because he has been bootlicking the rightwing oligarcy from day one. He was elected to do just the opposite.

[renodude36]

The only brainwashed people on here are the ones who believe that any one news station is responcable for what views poeple take on this president. The American people are simply fed up with Obama using tax payers money to take care of those instatutions unable to take care of themselvs. Don't blame those trying to spread the truth on where this President is taking this country, I'll take fox news over CNN any day, and Rush, and Beck and Henity.

[samiswilf]

Krauthammer = genius, even though I disagree with some of his ideas

[shalcall]

God, what is up with Fox News. The country voted in a Democratic President, 60 fucking Democratic Senators, and an even greater majority in the House - But we're a center right country?

Give me a fucking break.

[renodude36]

shalcall, you make sound like that every American voted for Obama, news flash, not every American didn't, and the fact that Scott Brown was elected into the senated seat shows that Obamas support that he had in his campaighn is deminashing, due to his current performance, don't blame foxnews.

[shalcall]

I think it's blatantly obvious that we are not a center-right nation.

[xadam2dudex]

Oh lord.. I figured this was going to be another FOX fake news clip.. Obama is no more to the left than Jerry Falwell is.. if he was to move to the left the country might have a chance to survive but as it is I don't expect the country to have much longer to exist as a free country..the supreme court just handed the country over to the corporations with the number of simple minded and dumbed down people in this country growing by the day a free election is a thing of the past

[MendingMedia]

No Krauthammer. Obama may not be controlled by Fox News.

Fox News you lost the election. Quit trying to run the country.

[daisymom4]

Personally I got sick to death of hearing and seeing the president....couldn't get away from him!

[quizerry]

Krauthammer is right. Obama has been ignoring what people want for a year and it is catching up with him.

[Danold31wa]

clearly

Obama

is

doing

a

good job

[StinkingHombre]

@Danold31wa - Yea, Bongo's doing a fabulous job of dismantling the Republic. See you in November Donnie!

[MrRedPajamas]

Clinton was a blacker president than Obama is.

[StinkingHombre]

@MrRedPajamas - Clinton was a pragmatist and Bongo is an idealist.

[toneo2001]

Again Kraut hit the nail on the head!!!

[JCGrantatAC]

Obama wasted an entire year on health care and cap and trade and got neither. He's useless.

[mushroomhead777]

He got neither thanks to the Republican party of NO.

[Savantclow]

mushroomhead777 is right.

Trying to show the country was united & bi-partisan was an epic fail in the face of Republicans who were upset over losing. So instead of trying to help the country get back on it's feet, they basically gridlocked it. Patriots one & all, I'm sure

Obama should just let the country go to hell & then disappear to go do speeches as if he had nothing to do with it? Oh, wait, that was Bush.

It's time for Obama to stop being NICE since he'll be criticized regardless.

[mushroomhead777]

thanks for that. And you know what's really sickening is now Dems are going to have to revise the health care reform bill in order for it to pass. Then the repubs will try to take credit for the whole idea of health care reform. When Dems have been trying to reform the broken system for like 60 years now but keep getting stopped, again by the party of NO.

[MendingMedia]

Krauthammer is bad for America and the world.

[Daritto7117]

FOX IS A PIECE OF FAKE SHIT!!!

[spidermanjohn]

Prove it!

[TheNailDriven]

Being forced and volunteering to serve your country is two different things. But, it is safe to say and for you to know that no one in the armed services of the united states is fighting for your fucking rights to slander any branch of military service just so you can sit on youtube and post shit about a few things you know about American history. This is my last comment to your response you son of a fucking whore, so don't bother replying....

[TheNailDriven]

listing to a fucking German pretending to be American is sicking. I spent two tours in Iraq... I've seen too many young men in the natonal guard brought home with folded american flags on their casket and for you to insult the national guard in such a way. You sir call yourself a u.s. citizen and claim to love this country? You are no American no matter what piece of paper says. i'm done wasting my time with this idiot.

[DumbDuck44]

@TheNailDriven I apologize for insulting the national guard then by its association with an America hating Europe adoring liberal pussy such as yourself. That was uncalled for and I went too far.

In these desperate times, the recruiters clearly needed everyone they could get since even you managed to make it through the filter.

[DumbDuck44]

@TheNailDriven And you know, we have required military service for everyone in Germany.  Unfortunately, putting on a uniform doesn't automatically mean the person wearing it has done anything worthy of praise. In short, don't hide behind the military and take responsibility for your own words against this country.

[TheNailDriven]

lol German shut your ass up you're not a real American just cause they let you in.

[DumbDuck44]

And you're a real American because of the accident of your birth? People that choose to live here and love this country are a thousand times more respectable than inbred liberal shits like yourself that spit on it and put down the United States at every opportunity they get, worshiping Europe as a model for the United States.

History lesson: Most American ancestors LEFT Europe for a reason. If you love other countries so much, MOVE THERE, I'll help you get your work visa.

[TheNailDriven]

In terms of testing and education for all citizens finland is number one in that area... I would hardly doubt that U.S. is even in the top 10. I am in the national guard and i have been outside the u.s. fucker. Talk all this good stuff about America, but do you serve this great country? or do you just run your mouth.

[DumbDuck44]

National guard is about as courageous as being a cop, and you're clearly a liberal pussy, so I wouldn't be blowing your own horn too hard champ. And to pretend that you are a patriot with the filth that you spew about this great nation is sickening.

[blkscreen15]

america has gotten more racist since Obama has become president. the whites and blacks seems to have widen the gap in between them and Fox news is a major catalyst to that. Fox news is always attacking obama, but the concern is that many times they simply skew the facts because they know what certain people want to hear.

[spidermanjohn]

Attacking policy...what's wrong with that? Seem to remember the ABCNBCCBS networks attacking the previous administration.

[blkscreen15]

oh geez, you are like fox news skewing statement of others. Nothing is wrong with attacking policy but there is a big concern when you skew facts to attack policies...read the comment properly before commenting. I get the sense you thought the previous administration was actually good..well you are nutjob if you believe that.

[xadam2dudex]

these guys are just brainwashed and or simple minded and can't think for themselves.. they are blind to those things called facts and neither care or know anything about the true nature of the country.they are false patriots..when the mindless mob takes control that is the beginning of the end for a society..history repeats itself..a nation falls from within before the forces without take advantage of the situation

[xadam2dudex]

they did ?? I must have missed that.. what day and minute did that happen ? with the corporate media there hasn't been a real news source in the US for at least a decade the only exception is some of the programs of MSNBC but the FOX no fact zone is hardly anything more than a propaganda machine.. all u have to do is follow the talking heads back to the source.. the RNC / Lobbyist

[TheNailDriven]

You prove the point why Most if not all the world see's America as a bunch of fat stupid fucks. You prob voted for bush both terms and was for the bailout for the banks, eh?

[DumbDuck44]

As a German that has moved here and gotten citizenship, you will notice that I am not the only immigrant. You will in fact see that the United States is the number one country for immigration in the entire world. The United States is the modern equivalent to the Roman Empire. Of course not everyone likes Roman rule or influence, but everyone respects it. Everyone recognizes the United States as a superpower, influenced by Hollywood/MTV culture, clothing, language, and all trade in $s.

[DigitalAquarius]

Fuck Fox News.

[spidermanjohn]

For pointing out the obvious?

[d3rk11]

When did the comment section become a forum? lol I'm not gonna argue with you idiots, you know who you are. Oh if you hear me laughing!

[DumbDuck44]

what was the point of this post? suicide is always an option, keep that in mind.

[therealcaptobvious]

obama is an arrogant pos

[TheNailDriven]

America= Greed, Corruption, Lies and Power. That is why nothing in this country will change. Washington wants to keep everything just the way it is.

[DumbDuck44]

@TheNailDriven Now I know you're a hippy by your greed comment. Greed is good. Greed is the foundation of a capitalist system, which to date is the only economic principle that works. Government officials should ALWAYS be presumed to be working in their best interest, which is the reason for the balance of powers set by the founding fathers and LIMITS to powers.

Idiotic liberals keep wanting to grant the government MORE power and control though, such as running all healthcare.

[Grethelin]

We're already in a lifetime of debt... too late to make that choice...

[Grethelin]

It doesn't take much assuming to figure someone who posts random comments to the extent of a cuss word has little integrity...

[bobino2468]

Wow your niave. This is the internet. Welcome to the 21st century.

[d3rk11]

I'm with PaulRevere down there... throw his ass out. He's already committed a felony by taking a seat at the UN. But they never said shit about that did they... THROW HIS ASS OUT. And get rid of the Fed once and for all.

[Grethelin]

I hear it takes a lot of intellect and courage to stand up on youtube and say "fuck fox news".... Yes, fox news is obscenely conservative, and msnbc is obscenely liberal....who cares, people should be smart enough to watch the news and understand there is going to be a bias no matter what channel you watch or paper you read...do your own research on top of the news if your not satisfied....

[d3rk11]

lol I also hear it takes a lot of intellect and courage to be quick to judge and assume I carry neither because of my words. You don't know shit.

[d3rk11]

fuck fox news

[spidermanjohn]

Brilliant retort.

[xEffrumx]

fuck fox news

[GriffenMorivan]

Ah, yes, because equal opportunity health care has never worked in any country, right?

I swear, I don't know that I've seen a more venomous bunch then you cronies who take Faux News seriously.

[DumbDuck44]

Equal opportunity healthcare? Talk about spin... are you dizzy? So tell me, do you believe that this would create equal contribution healthcare? Do you believe that our healthcare would be any better than in the UK or Canada, with its lack of specialists and huge waiting times?

Medicare already sucks, and the "Obamacare" plan proposed would cut significant benefits even covered by that (all medicare advantage plans nixed entirely).

[TheNailDriven]

Well, it's kind of hard to argue... some of the poorest countries in the world have better health care than the U.S. why? because of Univ. health care. Don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to go into a lifetime of debt just cause i needed a broken bone fixed or w/e the case.

[bP112]

idk, if my bone is broken it will hurt, who cares about the money, fix your bone.

[DumbDuck44]

@TheNailDriven Were you born stupid, or did you work at it? I hope you aren't referring to the lies spread in Michael Moore's propaganda film about the quality healthcare in communist dictatorship run impoverished countries.

Lifetime of debt for a broken bone? If you break it at work, your employers insurance covers it. If you break it at home, your home owners insurance covers it. If you break it in a car, your car insurance covers it. If you break it elsewhere...buy coverage.

[TheNailDriven]

look it up you dumb ass. google it. Shows that third world countries are ahead of the U.S. on the countries with good health care list. It's pretty sad to be the richest nation in the world and have third world countries that have better health care. Other than South Africa we're the only nation that doesn't provide health care to everyone... South Africa??? something wrong with that.

[DumbDuck44]

@TheNailDriven You lying sack of crap that probably hasn't stepped a foot outside the US. Universal healthcare systems vary HUGELY in how much the government is actually involved (some only give universal care to pregnant women for example nothing else), and no the majority of countries DO NOT run their healthcare nor are the majority of countries as successful as the United States which leads the world in per capita income, higher level education, aerospace, military prowess, and more.

[Grethelin]

its not a matter of equal opportunity health care working elsewhere, its the terrible plan being presented here. America SHOULD have universal health care, but the plan being put forward is a failing plan to being with. The problem is, most countries with SUCCESSFUL universal health care plans have much higher taxes than we do, America has the lowest taxes of a modern industrialized nation. You can't have the plan this country needs without taxes, take your pick, I pick health care...

[DumbDuck44]

Universal healthcare means having a healthcare plan whether or not you pay for it, consumption totally divorced from contribution, with choice and competition removed, forcing some people to pay for themselves AND their neighbors, and chipping away at freedom since an individual's life choices now affect EVERYONE since they have to pay the repercussions (your smoking, fatty foods, salt, abortion, etc is now paid for by ME so I have a say).

[DumbDuck44]

And what is with this "right" to healthcare?

Do you have a right to food?

Do you have a right to water?

Do you have a right to shelter?

If so, then by your logic, the government should take over all industry involving food, beverages, and housing, collect 50% taxes from everyone, and equally give out government food rations, water bottles, and government housing regardless of personal contribution or desire to pick your own food, drink, and place to stay? Right? Right?

[acesonfire]

you know what. it is inevitable. it is the same with every president. people like him at the start, and hate him by the end. you know why? because we always want more. and that will be our downfall.

i wish people would stop acting like democrats and republicans, and start acting like americans

[bobino2468]

I wonder how much FoxNews affiliates pay these "commentators" to outright lie. Obama is more of a centrist than Bush, Clinton, Reagan, etc.

[crazyforvideosdx]

@bobino2468

Oh wow, how old are you kid? It requires no major in political science to know that Obama is far in the left and that Clinton worked with the republicans back in his time. He had to since the majority of congress was republican. As for Bush and Reaga, well they were far in the right, but there is a reason many of their bills passed, they worked to get the approval of the other party unlike Obama who only aimed to get his party to support him.

[bobino2468]

and how ignorant are you, "kid?" Even John Mccain has said how both sides of the aisle are less apt to work with eachother nowadays. Obama has reached out multiple times to the right, only to be shunned. It's political manuevering by the right, and it IS smart, if life were a game and real lives weren't at stake. Your so out of touch with reality. If you followed any center to left news outlets, you'd know liberals are mad at obama for TRYING to hard to get bipartisan support.

[bobino2468]

Most liberals wanted Obama to just push through with the 60 vote majority, but he initially DID try to get support/help from the right. The right didn't do shit. I'm a centrist Republican, fyi, and I am also a graduate with a political science degree from Trinity Univ. in San Antonio, Tx. Look it up. Your so blind to your own projection/ignorance that it's truly comical.

[crazyforvideosdx]

Congratulations, I'm graduating a lawyer with a minor in political science. You say Obama tried to get approval from the right, well honey you don't need a political science major to explain NOWDAY politics when Obama made the health care reform with no help. He was hoping he would passed it with the majority of the senate but guess what it didn't, and I wonder why.

[crazyforvideosdx]

Now you say republicans didn't help at all, well maybe it's because Obama only wants to amend the current health care bill instead of starting over with both parties together.

[thegoodlocust]

If Nancy Pelosi gets voted out or loses the Speakership to someone more reasonable then it'd be great if we could then rid of Biden/Obama before their terms were up.

[PaulRevere77381]

We don't need to waste time trying to reform Obama. He's socialist trash for life. Just throw him out of office.

[bronxborn243]

? and what was bush? when bush fucked the country over what were u saying or did you have his dick in your mouth!

[bobino2468]

oh how ignorant you are.

[TruthDroveCove]

"Center Right." Right on!

[adamitshelanu]

Let's hope ObamaNation is trainable.

Let remind ourselves that were The Anointed One to resign or be forced from Office, the line of succession runs through rope-a-dope Biden to Dominatrix Pelosi.

Mr. K is correct: the Black Karl Marx is an ideologue, Bill Clinton was just a dough boy and rapist.

Limbaugh is trying stir up discontent and recriminations in the Democrap back rooms by "supporting Hillary For President in 2012."

Latest from Pat Buchannan: _Has Obama Lost White America?_

[MRobert21]

The Annoying 1 Barrack Hussein and his legions of retarded followers are not trainable because they are the trash of the Earth as they alway have been and always will be. Barrack Hussein SHOULD NOT be assassinated or impeached because there are even more dangerous scum bags like Biden and Pelosi waiting in the wings to take over. In 2010, kick out all of Barrack Hussein's cronies in both parties and then wipe out Barrack Hussein in 2012 at the ballot box. USA is right and libertarian not center
