Breaking my own personal rule against citing Drudge ..... er .... sorry ...... Politico
"Obama has no executive experience" is the latest meme from the Daily Fishwrap. The kinder and gentler right wing enabling propaganda catapultists want everyone to know that they think Obama will slowly fade away due to his lack of executive experience as demonstrated in the oil spew crisis. I heard some Politicoist droning on about this on WTOP, DC's allnoozradio.

The cite the fact that Carter, Reagan, Clinton, and Idiot Son all were governors. Each had experience dealing with some state-wide crisis or another, making them experienced in a area in which Obama is lacking.

(They failed to mention that Idiot Son, as Tejas governor, was mostly a figurehead and that as governor and later preznit, showed a glaring lack of JUDGMENT. But no matter. For Politico, anything they can say bad about Obama, they will.)

I'm not endorsing this meme, just reporting it.

1. Wolf was practically creaming himself showing 69% against Fed resp. to Spill, only 62% for Katrina
Yes, Wolf is that stupid and right-wing.

...in our history with the kind of experience that Obama has now.
And some of them didn't get as much experience as he now has.
William Henry Harrison and James Garfield, for example.

Politico can go suck it...

5. Sadly, every "news" organization in the US quotes Politico. Which is how the shadowy right wing . .
. . . . owners want it.
