Noonan: Obama Incompetent

Friday, 28 May 2010 09:04 AM EDT

Peggy Noonan opines in the Wall Street Journal that President Barack Obama's final straw that breaks his presidential back is the Gulf oil spill.

"This is his third political disaster in his first 18 months in office. And they were all, as they say, unforced errors, meaning they were shaped by the president's political judgment and instincts," she writes.

She thinks the inventory of presidential gaffes is fatal:

• There was the unnecessary war over his healthcare proposal and its cost.

• There was his day-to-day indifference to the views and hopes of the majority of voters regarding illegal immigration.

• And now the past almost 40 days of dodging and dithering in the face of an environmental calamity. I don't see how you politically survive this.
