President Obama Would Vote Present

Something to consider about the thought of “President Barack Obama” and his leadership qualifications.

As Rudy Giuliani said last night:

On the other hand, you have a resume from a gifted man with an Ivy League education. He worked as a community organizer, and immersed himself in Chicago machine politics. Then he ran for the state legislature – where nearly 130 times he was unable to make a decision yes or no. He simply voted “present.”

As Mayor of New York City, I never got a chance to vote “present.” And you know, when you’re President of the United States, you can’t just vote “present.” You must make decisions.

Remember, a teleprompter can’t come up with policy decisions on it’s own.

So what would President Obama do when Iran brings their nuclear program fully online and starts building nuclear weapons? The headline: “Iranians Build Nuclear Missile; President Obama Votes ‘Present’”.

Or what would President Obama do if terrorists blew up the Sears Tower in Chicago? The headline: “Al Qaeda Claims Responsibility for Sears Bombing; President Obama Votes ‘Present’”.

What else can you expect from someone who has already avoided much less difficult stands?
