Seems he's riding it an awful lot. How fitting is this event to a failed president? He sent his own failboat.

The U.S. government came under fire today for chartering a rescue boat for Americans stuck in Libya that is too small to cope with the rough Mediterranean sea.

Hundreds of American citizens were finally set to depart Tripoli harbour aboard the Maria Dolores, a small passenger ferry chartered by the U.S., trapped there by rouigh seas.

At the same time larger Greek and Turkish vessels have transported thousands of their own citizens to safety, crossing the choppy water to mainland Europe.

Do you think he personally picked it or did some subordinate coordinate the effort with little knowledge of how bad the Med can be?


Do you blame him for your kankles too?

Did Obama charter the boat personally? If not the only failboats are you and CPA.

If you can't laugh at this administrations constant failure all rolled up into a single, literal, failboat then you're not paying attention.

He appointed an idiot, who in turn appointed another idiot, and so on down the line. "The fail starts here" may be the new "The buck stops here."

I'm sure there are some Somalis who'd love to come up the canal and offer their special brand of charter service.

Kerry's Yacht is probably on the West Coast these days hiding from the Tax man.

With all our warships and navy all over the world and in the area this is the best Obama can do? Other countries have been evacuating for days with their warships and this is the best he can do? Failboat indeed.

The House Republicans clearly Filibustered the funding for a sufficiently sufficient charter boat in the hopes that the highly educated and patriotic (and therefore Democratic) ex-Pats - sent to Libya on a peacekeeping mission to cure the natives of the AIDS virus (which Republicans let loose on the world as a result of their nefarius experiments to breed green monkeys to kill homosexuals and "The Color'ds") - could be trapped, tortured, and ultimately murdered by the riotous mobs - which the RebupliCunts incited in their zeal to complete Ronald Reagan's sacred mission to steal Libyan Oil (as proven by the big hole in the ground where Ghadaffi's tent used to be) in order that the Lord, God, and Savior Obama would be removed from office from a lack of voters; which the Republican'ts engineered to be killed.



Was that sentence sufficiently run~on? Or shall I work on it some more?

Free enterprise. Our citizens can save themselves, they do not need a socialist government swooping in and picking them up.

Obama heard the call for deficit reduction, and ordered a smaller boat.

He's operating under that long standing principle of 'never hire anyone smarter than yourself because they'll just make you look bad'. It can work for a while if the top dog is a genius, but when the leader is a community organizer who's greatest accomplishment is voting 'present', well, things get out of hand rather quickly.

It would all be rather funny if times were good.

I'm actually surprised he wasn't concerned about offending Gonedaffy by pulling our people out. Did Obama ever bow down to him?

You're doing a heck of a job Barry. Ultimately the failure starts and ends with him, ESPECIALLY because as commander in chief he didn't order any of our very capable and ready military vessels to assist.

Each day, a new illustration of the idiocy that is our beloved Spidey.

This kind of inaction or incompetence is commonplace for this failed president.

Remember his inaction and incompetence with the oil spill? This man is nothing more than a community organizer with zero leadership skills. It's a disturbing pattern of behavior from our president and he's starting to make Carter look good, he really is.

Obama was actually going to seize your property and put Ghaddafi's tent there but your neighbors complained that their property taxes would increase too much.
