Founding Father quote of the day

A feeble executive implies a feeble execution of the government. A feeble execution is but another phrase for a bad execution; and a government ill executed, whatever may be its theory, must be, in practice, a bad government.

Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 70, 1788

I just have to ask then, what the heck where we thinking electing a president with zero executive experience?

We elected him for hope and change, silly.

Seriously though, I can see President Obama becoming a stool pigeon for Reid, Pelosi and the rest of the Democratic Party. I really hope he will stand up to them on the issues he doesn't agree with, although he doesn't seem to have many ideas of his own...

Or even worse, what if he becomes a stool pigeon for Wright, Ayers, and the rest of his radical buddies??

Agreed. I heard Ayers was a professor of education, and P-E Obama served on an educational board with him, so I decided to find out what he thought about education.

Well, his views on education are as radical as his views on war. Check out the following:

Is this the kind of educational policy we want to run in our country? Really, in this instance, I'd rather him be a stool pigeon for the Democrats than to actually agree with Ayres.
