Does it qualify as news if it’s something that everyone already knows? In this case, MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough says that Democrats secretly admit to something Republicans already knew – Barack Obama is to leader as Leona Helmsley is to generosity.
“I have got to clear this up. Mika heard two days ago on Capitol Hill Democrats all saying the same thing. And that is, this president has been invisible, he is not a leader. They said this all behind closed doors. Democratic leaders, Democratic rank-and-file. In fact, 40, 50 of the most powerful Democrats on the Hill. I will just stop right there. The complaints were all the same. The president has vanished. He has left us here alone again like he did with health care. Where is he? Now, they didn’t call him a loser, but they sure as hell didn’t call him a leader.”
As we used to say in high school, “No shit, Sherlock. Where’d you get your first clue?”

Tell Ottesama Bin Laden he's not a leader Joe....oh sorry...you can't...he's dead.
Tell the employees of automakers that he doesn't lead, oh right...they know better.
So, Joe, in the title of this piece it says..."Democrats silently admit Obama's no leader", but in the article you say "Now, they didn’t call him a loser, but they sure as hell didn’t call him a leader.” So, by silently you meant that only you heard that, in your head?
That's what I thought Joe. This field of candidates you guys don't have really must be worrying you Joe. On that, no one is saying it silently Joe.
I can't stand those people who insist on repeating someone's name over and over...
Justin, Justin, Justin. Don't you get it, Justin? I mean, come on Justin.
Isn't it sad when cousins marry?
Cousins hell -- Gray's his own grandpa.
Dear Editor:
Please quit using the same stock photos of theOne. There are millions of 'em out there. Common man!

You lost me on this one, YT. There's no photo of Obama in this article.
thumbnail on the front page...
It *is* a good picture of Barry. Looks like he's getting pretty good at that -- must have been after all the practice on his Middle East tour.
I seem to recall someone saying that Obama would go over like a pregnant pole vaulter.
Oh wait. That was me.
Joe! You are such a RACIST!!! I mean, that HAS to be the ONLY reason he is saying something so uncivilized about the greatest, smartest president in the history of presidents, right?
He's at the front of the line taking credit. Disappears when there's blame to spread around.
A leader takes the blame when things go badly, spreads the credit when things go well.
Wake up, Joe to what everyone else in these here United States are learning the hard way - affirmative action doesn't work. Hiring, or electing, someone because they are black doesn't correlate to them being competent. In fact, most blacks in positions they didn't earn or deserve are not competent - they are idiots. Just look at Obongo and his wide arsed, plains grazing mate.
What is your level of education ?
Too bad you have this racial tick gibs, because if you weren't so damned racist we'd almost listen to you. Oh, BTW, anybody (black, white, it doesn't matter) placed in a position they didn't earn or deserve is going to be incompetent. If you want to post here and be taken seriously, stop whining about blacks and their incompetence because I'm sure you have plenty of your own!
is the president black? i hadnt noticed because I DONT CARE what his race is... our president has more racism running through his pinky finger than the average american. when the media and libs dont have a leg to stand on with their argument they turn to ole faithful.. RACISM.
ps: if it werent for the conservatives slavery may still be legal... i believe al gores father voted against the emancipation proclamation. it was the GOP that had gave enough votes to abolish slavery.
No, he is very competent -- as a leftard plant, to try and get someone else stirred up about "them nigras" and so discredit conservative thinking.
He is just ACHING for someone else to start venting off and use some intemperate, cruel comments, and next thing ya know we'll be headline news over at the Krotch.
Wow, looks like there might be some improvement here. That almost wasn't racist.
