But it is in no one's best interest for the Obama administration to be perceived as weak by our enemies at this juncture.

Is it?

Suppose the worst happens: there's enough fire under this smoke to completely destroy the new administration's credibility and political strength, but not enough to justify forced removal from office.

What happens next? To be blunt about it, what difference would it make?

Is this going to be listed as another "first" for Obamalala's presidency. You can't make this stuff up. When Obamalala was starting his dance to the W.H. I "aksed" people who were all agog over him."Come on, he's from Chicago. You can't get anywhere unless you bow to "the Machine". His meteoric rise there should have aroused at least a few questions. It didn't. It may be that Obamalala's "chickens have come home.....to roost!"

Karma. Payback's more-subtle sister.

Payback for what? Running up the score on your guy in the election?

So, which is it?
Are you in the "questions swirl" camp ("a familiar name, hmm?"), or are you in the "not being perceived as weak" school of thought?
You can't have it both ways. What's the point of this piece?

Poll: Obama is man Americans admire most

"Obama's rise is matched by Bush's decline. The president's support has ebbed nearly every year since 2001, falling to 5% this year."

Heh heh. Karma indeed.

NO, Bobby! The era we live in dictates no such inconvenience for leftist democrats (excuse the redundancy.) They have to pull something which truly reeks outloud before anyone thinks about questioning them for the record. But here we have a Chicago thug about to ascend to the White House without even be required to prove his constitutional bonafides! Now THAT'S the era we live in!

Well max, people that stand up to be counted and do what they think is right in the face of opposition usually take a beating in goofy polls like this. I am surprised Bush is even second. The way the press has fawned over Obamalala it is no surprise what so ever he came out on top. He hasn't done anything yet. Interesting that Sarah Palin was runner up to Billary with such a short exposure. Oh yeah, ahead of Oprah.

"...goofy polls like this."

How is the poll Max cited "goofy?"

FasciSSocialist Psychosis's Perpetual Poster Person and that psychopathology's probably most prolific poster, Parthenon, asks "Payback for what?

"Running up the score on your guy in the election?"

"Our guy," oh ancient home of Greek ... um ... activities?

In the wildest and most delusionally fantasized rampages of what passes for "imaginations" among those too damned stupid to know they're being lied to and/or too damned mean-spirited and/or too damned greedy to care, the criminally alien, the felons, the clinically insane, those in their dotage and/or in their nonage -- and America's fascists and crypto-fascists ('collectivist'-ally, AKA the "Democratic" potty's "base") -- was the (chosen-by-the crossover "Democrats" and by their uniformly-Goebbelsesque one-party propagandist posing as the "press" polemicist pals) permanently PTSD-drugged-up McRainman, "Our guy."

Any more, come to that, than the Stalinist Saul Alinskyistic self-and-own-culture-loathing un-and-anti-American mobbed-up Marxist murtadd Muslim Manchurian/Arab-African, B Hussein bin B Hussayn bin Hussayn Muhummad zerO (AKA NMF'ingP!) is his own, "guy."

Let alone yours, even -- or America's.

For he is your enemy, too. The difference between us being only that we are intelligent, honest and diligent enough to have taken the five seconds or so it, on average, took us to figger him out.
