After the recently televised political debate, I watched as news reporters were asking average citizens what they thought of the debaters.

Let me paraphrase what one such "Average Joe" said, "Well, Obama wasn't as prepared for the questions. He's been busy workin' as president for four years; you can't expect him to be up on debatin'."

What rock does that guy hide under? Yes, Barack Obama's been "busy" -- busy jetting around to anywhere but DC; busy appearing on nearly every TV talk show; busy cultivating a "rock star" image so  a generation of Americans who think "reality TV" is actually real will continue to vote for him. He's been busy sharing his "awesome personality" and busy avoiding doing anything of substance to actually help make America better and stronger.

Of course, "Joe" was interviewed in a bar. I think he needs to stop drinking alcohol and smell the coffee!

Come on citizens, wake up!
