    Default An odor of incompetence pervading and spreading through every Obama admin project

    Has this administration done ANYTHING well yet?

    "Fast & Furious" was supposed to let criminals try to buy guns illegally, keep a close eye on them, and bust them along with their colleagues. But something went wrong, the criminals walked out the door and across the border will all the guns they could ever want, and the Obama administration lost track of the guns, until some of them were used to kill hundreds of Mexican civilians and at least one U.S. Border Patrol agent.

    The govt was supposed to keep our embassies and consulates safe, but the Obama admin started stripping away American security forces - even as more and more terrorist attacks came against them - until a devastating attack against our consulate in Banghazi killed four Americans, including the U.S. Ambassador.

    The nation's economy continues to languish with high unemployment and uncertainty as the Obama administration tries theory after theory, trying to boost it, instead of letting it boost itself.

    The various "Green" companies that the Obama admin decided to boost with loans of taxpayer money (Solyndra, etc.), have gone belly-up one after another, resulting in the loss of the funds and loss of thousands of jobs.

    The website for Obamacare, after having half a billion dollars spent on it and three years of effort and work, still crashes regularly, blocks users from getting policies, and generally works poorly when it works at all.

    And the Obamacare website's poor performance actually serves to mask the fact that the insurance it's selling is far more expensive for most people, with far fewer services available, that the insurance policies they used to have. The insurance that Obama assured us would cost less and cover more, does neither.

    These things are all well known. But why does this administration continue to rack up failure after failure? It seems that everything it touches, it screws up.

    There is an unpleasant smell of bumbling and incompetence spreading through every part of this administration. And no one has ever been held accountable for even one of these failures.

    Why are these people's performances so consistently bad, project after project, year after year?

    The Founding Fathers designed a government that would do as little as possible, leaving most things to lower governments more directly accountable to the people; or to the people themselves.

    If we ever needed a reason WHY they did so, we could not have a better one than the continual bumbling, screw-ups, and general incompetence of the Obama administration.

    They are the best argument yet, for smaller, limited government. Yet they still want to take on more, and do more. God help us.

    "The social contract exists so that everyone doesn’t have to squat in the dust holding a spear to protect his woman and his meat all day every day. It does not exist so that the government can take your spear, your meat, and your woman because it knows better what to do with them." - Instapundit.com
