Obama White House "Unprecedented" or Unpresidential...?

I simply had to share in response to a news snippet about the "unprecedented" over use of "unprecedented" by the Obama White House. I fully agree that the position of President of the free world must be one of the most challenging job openings for anybody to fill, but our latest CEO is certainly "unprecedented" in being (imo) the most under qualified candidate ever to occupy the Oval Office and has been somewhat embarassing to observe over these first 11 months in office. As a Brit, I was as disgusted as my fellow kinsman of the downright "unpresidential"treatment of Gordon Brown and our reigning monarch, Queen Elizabeth II.

America needs strong leadership - now more than ever with the increasing global challenges - and I guess it's not just me that feels he is somewhat lacking in the Presidential Department, as his approval ratings are plummeting just as sharply as the economy. What we need these days is less of a 'rockstar' or celebrity President (as Obama appears to be behaving) and more of a decisive leader and Commander in Chief his people can follow with confidence.

In an "unprecedented" example of an administration, I wonder how many more unexpected precedents he and his compadres will concoct before his first term is up? I'm surprised Mickey and Minie Mouse have not been invited to the White House yet, but it would not surprise me if they had invited Santa Clause to join them for Christmas dinner this year...!

Nothing surprises me any more, but I'd sure like to see some real solutions being discussed and some "Change" for the better, that I thought he set the precedent for during his arduous pre-election campaign.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all...!
