Expensive, ill-fitting and ill-chosen wigs and fashions hardly
befit the first lady of the United States .. The Obamas have behaved in every
way but presidential – which is why it's so offensive when we hear Obama say, in
order "to restore fiscal responsibility, we all need to share in the sacrifice –
but we don't have to sacrifice the America we believe in."
The American
people have been sacrificing; it is he and his family who are behaving as if
they've never had two nickels to rub together – and now, having hit the mother
lode, they're going to spend away their feelings of inadequacy at the taxpayers'
expense.
Obama continues to exhibit behavior that, at best, can be
described as mobocratic and, at worst, reveals a deeply damaged individual. In a
February 2010 column, I asked, "Is Obama unraveling? "I wrote that it was
beginning to appear the growing mistrust of him and contempt for his policies
was beginning to have a destabilizing effect on him.
At that time, I
wrote that not having things go one's way can be a bitter pill, but reasonable
people don't behave as he was behaving. He had insulted Republicans at their
luncheon, where he had been an invited guest. I had speculated that was, in
part, what had led him to falsely accuse Supreme Court justices before Congress,
the nation and the world, during the 2010 State of the Union address.
It
appeared, at that time, as if he were "fraying around the emotional edges." That
behavior has not abated – it has become more pronounced. While addressing the
nation, after being forced to explain the validity of his unilateral aggression
with Libya , America witnessed a petulant individual scowling and scolding the
public for daring to insist he explain his actions.
But during an
afternoon speech to address the budget/debt, he took his scornful, unstable
despotic behavior to depths that should give the nation cause for concern.
Displaying a dark psychopathy more representative of an episode of "The Tudors"
television series, he invited Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., to sit in the front row
during his speech and then proceeded to berate both Ryan and Ryan's
budget-cutting plan. Even liberal Democrats were put off by the act. MSNBC's Joe
Scarborough questioned the sanity of Obama's actions.
Today, criticism
is coming from all sides. A senior Democrat lawmaker said, "I have been very
disappointed in [Obama], to the point where I'm embarrassed that I endorsed him.
It's so bad that some of us are thinking, is there some way we can replace him?
How do you get rid of this guy?" ("Democrats' Disgust with Obama," The Daily
Beast, April 15, 2011)
Steve McCann wrote: Obama's speech "was chock
full of lies, deceit and crass fear-mongering. It must be said that [he] is the
most dishonest, deceitful and mendacious person in a position of power I have
ever witnessed" ("The Mendacity of Barack Obama,"AmericanThinker.com , April 15, 2011).
McCann continued: "[His] performance was the culmination of four years
of outright lies and narcissism that have been largely ignored by the media,
including some in the conservative press and political class who are loath to
call [him] what he is in the bluntest of terms: a liar and a fraud. That he
relies on his skin color to intimidate, either outright or by insinuation
[against] those who oppose his radical agenda only add to his audacity. It is
apparent that he has gotten away with his character flaws his entire life, aided
and abetted by sycophants around him. ..."
With these being among the
kinder rebukes being directed at Obama, and with people becoming less
intimidated by his willingness to use race as a bludgeon, with falling poll
numbers in every meaningful category and an increasingly aggressive tea-party
opposition – how much longer before he cracks completely?
The coming
months of political life are not going to be pleasant for Obama. Possessed by a
self-perceived palatine mindset, that in his mind places him above criticism,
how long before he cracks in public? Can America risk a man with a documented
track record of lying and misrepresenting truth as a basic way of life, who is
becoming increasingly more contumelious.

ReplyDeleteSays the man who voted for Bush twice.
LOL.
Langx, All politicians, like everyone else, fit into the same categories, but the differences are in the details. Republican presidents have spoken untruths at one time or another, Democrats seem notorious for taking that trait to the extreme. Republican presidents have increased the National Debt but Democrats do it worse when they have control of Congress and Obama has quadrupled the debt and caused the credit rating for the U.S. to be downgraded twice in the last 3 1/2 years. Republican presidents have exercised power on occasion but the Democrats and especially Barack Obama has taken this to new heights - almost to the point of rendering Congress obsolete with his Executive Orders. In the end, there is no comparison between Bush and Obama. Obama is a wannabe totalitarian dictator who considers himself to be above the law.
ReplyDeleteI love the analogy of the Obamas are like sharecroppers! You hit the nail on the head.
