Obama stumbles again

Duane "Generalissimo" Patterson of the Hugh Hewitt (radio) Show and blog points to more evidence supporting my observation that Barack Obama appears to reveal his inexperience more with practically every opening of his mouth.
It has not been a good week for Barack Obama. The first term Senator of Illinois and chief thorn in the side of Hillary Clinton on her ascendance to the presidency tripped on a YouTube question in the Democratic debate a couple of nights ago by declaring that no dictator is above meeting with, regardless of the situation, raising the eyebrows of even some of the Beltway punditry. He tripped again today.

Obama found himself in the usually mundane role of Senate chair this afternoon while the Republicans used procedure to tie the Democrats in knots once again. And when put in the position to make a ruling, he gave the Democrats a short-term win, but a long-term loss on the immigration debate. He very well have given critics of his presidential campaign more fodder.

Obama settled an issue in the Senate by ruling from the chair that funding for border security could not "conceivably" be germane to homeland security.

Not presidential.
