Barack Obama is looking for some “ass to kick”

Barack Obama is angry. Very angry. He’s so angry, that he’s looking for some “ass to kick“. By the way, that’s a direct quote from the tough-guy-in-chief.

Barack Obama has been getting a lot of criticism for his calm demeanor since the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Even some supporters wish he would get fired up. I don’t know about you, but his statement about kicking ass seems a bit forced, and quite frankly, laughable. For his sake, someone in his inner circle needs to tell him to drop the forced routine. This is government, not the WWE.

“Many of the people appointed in the Bush administration are still burrowed in the agencies that are supposed to oversee the [oil] industry,” Pelosi said when asked if Democrats could have prevented or mitigated the crisis by keeping a closer watch on the industry.

Added the Speaker, “the cozy relationships between the Bush administration’s agency leadership and the industry is clear…I’ve heard no complaints from my members about the way the president has handled it,” Pelosi stated.
