Perplexed

 It is perplexing how the liberals can continue to support a President who is making an  international  spectacle of himself as we speak. It is amazing to me that Bush and Romney were accused of "flip-flopping" on the issues a short time ago only to have the same media continue to give this President of ours a pass on his embarrassing fish impersonation on Syria. Putin is making him look like an amateur, and despite 60 Minutes trying their best,Obama sounded like he was fabricating, and fabricating poorly when allowed to rebut Assad's argument this past Sunday.  When McCain and Boehner start defending this president you have to suspect that even they are embarrassed for America. Yesterday's WSJ editorial said it best when they remarked that Obama is "allowing" Putin to take control of weapons that Assad says he does not have and Putin says he did not use. You can't make this stuff up and the punch line is apparently over the heads of the majority of the American public.
  It seems that the conservatives are constantly, in measured fashion, pointing to statistics, facts, and hard data whereas the liberals continually resort to feelings and opinion, almost always followed by personal, demeaning attacks.  So to repeat verifiable data released by even the most reliable of sources is engaging in an entirely different exercise from repeating the opinions of the liberal media. Not unlike the difference between Ryan and Biden in the vice-presidential debate: serious data-based arguments against the theater of the absurd.  Infuriating.  But never, ever underestimate the gullibility of the public. Remember, nearly 50% of them do not have the wherewithal to be gainfully employed without government assistance of some sort.
