While talking about the Gusher in the Gulf, Barack Obama, the President of the United States, often called the Greatest Orator in History, actually said, “I can’t suck it up with a straw.”
What he meant, we assume, is that George Bush somehow sabotaged all the straws.

Hoovers suck --- Obama blows! " ;-p
Typo --- meant to say : :-O
I thought he thought that his powers were limitless. He is walking around acting like he should have all the power in the world. With that said he is correct he has limited powers AND HE SHOULS REMEMBER THAT. No one expects him to get down there himself and fix the problem with his own hands, however he does count with a great deal of people and tools that he could use to fix the problem. He could contact the Arabs who are well versed on controlling oil spills but why hasn't he?
I can't honestly believe that such a statement came out of that man's mouth. They need to stop letting him speak off prompter.
Also, did he at least TRY to suck it up with a straw before claiming he couldn't? It's the whole "I can't do it and I'm not gonna even try" attitude of his that really bothers me.
'Have straw, will travel' reads the card of a man!
