Leadership: We're starting to grasp how hard a job the president has. It can't be easy to rule a country filled with so many soft, lazy, greedy fat cats who can't make good stuff anymore.

At a business forum Saturday, President Obama complained that "we've been a little bit lazy over the last couple of decades." He apparently meant we've let foreign investment go slack, since "we aren't out there hungry, selling America and trying to attract new business into America."

But this is just the latest slur against the United States uttered by its leader.

In October, Obama complained that "we have lost our ambition, our imagination and our willingness to do the things that built the Golden Gate Bridge." Earlier that month he groused that the U.S. "used to have the best stuff" but doesn't anymore. In September he described America as having "gotten a little soft."

And that's when he hasn't been complaining about greedy Wall Street executives who think they deserve to make a profit.
