Obama all talk, no management

President Obama is fond of stating his new mantra of “A Do Nothing Congress,” as often as possible and cites this as a reason for using executive power.

I’m sure he realizes that Congress is composed of the House of Representatives controlled by a Republican majority and the Senate controlled by a Democratic majority. Obviously, from his comment, he is not only unable to work with the Republican House but he is also unable to work with the Democratic Senate.

He also neglects to state the Republican House passed 30 jobs bills and a balanced budget in 2011 that Harry Reid in the Democratic-controlled Senate refuses to bring to the floor for a vote.

When a Democratic president cannot work with his Democratic Senate let alone the Republican House, it shows the depth of his inability to be a unifier and leader. It shows his lack of experience in basic management skills that bring people together in a spirit of cooperation.

As a diversion to counter this inexperience, he has demonized Wall Street, big business, the banks, the rich, the Republicans, President Bush and Congress, yet has no qualms about taking huge campaign donations from Wall Street, big business or the rich.

It is time to realize that Mr. Obama is a loner who is likable and can give a great speech, but has absolutely no leadership or management qualities.
