Column: GOP's assault on Obama is all over the place
The Republican Party in 2011 has come to resemble the ragtag rebels who are battling to overthrow the dictatorship of Moammar Gadhafi. While not likening President Obama to the brutal Libyan tyrant, of course, I am suggesting that the GOP and the Libyan rebels share the same penchant for infighting, clashing messages, disarray, public vilification of rivals and total lack of command and control. These mutually shared handicaps have certainly delayed the rebels' achievement of their dream of capturing Tripoli — and the Republicans' dream of a one-term Obama presidency.

1. It has been since the day he took office
No president has been attacked from so many fronts as President Obama.

6. Clinton got it from all sides.
Though there were differences. The economy was humming, while he left himself open on the private side.

4. This theme on the Right seems rather coherent. - Obama is a
failure. Obama has failed. This is a failed Presidency.
Obama is a ONE TERMER. Obama is a one term President.
Is Obama a one term President????

5. What do you mean theme on the Right?
Lots of leftwingers subscribe to the theme as well.
