Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 101: “Sued, Screwed, and Tattooed”
Well I've been sued and screwed and tattooed.
But I’m standing right here in front of you
Telling you that even the best of 'em make a mistake
We're all livin' life day to day
The whole damn world's just feeling it's way
But you can tell them ol' Jerry Jeff said it's OK, Jerry Jeff Walker:” Lovin' Makes Livin' Worthwhile”
For the last 101 weeks We the People have been repeatedly “Sued, Screwed, and Tattooed” by the Marxist/Socialist Obama Regime. There has been an unprecedented assault on our personal liberties; the Federal Treasury; our international standing and prestige; and our free market capitalist economy.
Before we start the third year of the train wreck known as the Obama Administration it’s only fittin that we glance back at the political carnage and relentless attacks on the Constitution perpetrated by the “Blame America First/Terrorist Sympathizers/Exploding Deficits/Addicted to Criminally Over Spending Other People’s Money gang currently infesting the White House.
Following are the top ten most egregious; possibly illegal; unequivocally unethical; anti-American; irresponsible; ultra partisan; fiscally disastrous; intellectual dishonest; Marxist inspired actions imposed on our great nation in 2010:
1. The Administration’s response to the BP Oil Spill in the Gulf Mexico. On April 20th a deep water oil rig blew killing 11 and initiating a massive leak one mile below the surface of the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Initial word from BP and the Obama Administration was the oil leak was marginal and easily contained. It only ended up being one of the worst ecological disasters in history.
Our Chief Executive was totally ineffective dealing with the crisis. This was partly intentional as their real agenda was exploiting the spill to end domestic offshore drilling. This strategy has resulted in loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs.
2. Times Square Terrorist. Similar to the “Under drawers Christmas Bomber” last year Faisal Shahzad, a naturalized American born in Pakistan Islamic Jihadist who parked a crude car bomb in New York's Times Square, also must have skipped class at Terrorist U the day they covered Demolitions 101. In both cases we dodged a huge bullet as the terrorist plots remained undetected right up till the moment the explosives failed to ignite.
This bunch best get serious about the war with Islamic Jihadist and lose the law enforcement mentality before Omar learns how to light a fuse.
3. Five hundred Year Flood. - Just in case you missed it
floods in Tennessee claimed dozens of lives and billions in property damage. Couldn’t say why the Administration or main stream media pinheads didn’t give this truly record breaking natural disaster the time of day. The fact it’s a deep red state populated by a bunch of no count crackers surely didn’t influence Mr. Obama’s decision to totally ignore this monumental natural disaster.
4. Illegal Immigration. Starting with Mr. Obama who many believe to be our Criminal Illegal Alien-in- Chief along with several of his Senior political hacks including Attorney General Eric “Terrorist Sympathizer” Holder and Homeland Security Honcho and coiner of the phrase “man made disaster” for domestic terrorism, Janet Napolitano, this Administration condemned an Arizona Immigration bill for promoting racial profiling and discriminating against our brethren of Hispanic origins.
It is interesting that all these Administration political hacks who have openly and without shame cast dispersions on Arizona’s new law have also sheepishly admitted while testifying at Congressional Hearings their own failure to take the time to read the actual bill. Reckon we shouldn’t expect a lot more from a President who accused the Cambridge Police of being a bunch of racist right after admitting in the same sentence he didn’t have all the facts.
Surely the most ludicrous response to the Arizona law came out of Secretary Hillary “Keeper of the Butt Ugly Traveling Pants Suit” Clinton’s State Department. Some yahoo Assistant Secretary of Pucker Up Buttercup and Bend Way Over and Grab My Ankles named Michael Posner stood right on up there at the podium like he had good sense and proudly exclaimed he had apologized early and often to the Chinese for Arizona’s new law.
5. A change in command. The far leftwing rag the Rolling Stone published an expose on General Stanley McChrystal, our Commander of US and Allied Forces in Afghanistan, and it turns out the good General and his staff don’t think to highly of our Commander-in-Chief or his Advisors.
This serious breach of Military ethics won the General a free trip to the Presidential woodshed for an old fashion, foot stomping, raised voices, gather at the river, come to Jesus (or in President Obama’s case Mohammad) gathering.
What possessed this highly decorated elite group of fighting men to speak with such candor within earshot of Rolling Stone remains a mystery. What’s not a mystery is the disdain and contempt these gentlemen have for their civilian bosses. A dangerous situation for sure when an incompetent, weak, President loses the trust and confidence of his senior officers.
6. Impeachable offensives. Always figured if the day ever came when a French President advised our Commander-in-Chief to get control of government spending, deficits and new Socialist programs it would be the same day Hell freezes over, pigs fly and monkeys fly out of Al “Sex Poodle” Gore’s Nobel Prize winning Global Warming butt. That’s exactly what happened at the G8 Summit earlier this year.
In fact, all seven of the other members of the G8 rejected our Marxist/Socialist-in-Chief’s proposal for a worldwide stimulus and the continuation of massive deficit spending. Ain’t no never mind about it when the Socialist Nanny States of Europe are justifiably lecturing us about our dangerous big Government Marxist fiscal policies it’s time for a serious evaluation of our current leadership and their reckless dismantling of our free market capitalist economy. If this ain’t an impeachable offense it damn sure should be.
7. Another activist judge. Elena Kagan, another radical liberal head case Yankee lawyer, was appointed by our alleged Constitutional Scholar-in-Chief to fill the seat on the Supreme Court of retiring progressive bleeding heart leftwing bonehead Justice John Paul Stephens. Hopefully the appointment of Ms. Kagan will result in nothing more than replacing one Constitution ignoring judicial activist with another.
Problem is we just don’t know exactly how far left Ms. Kagan’s judicial philosophy has wandered. What little we do know from her bio, liberal biased press reports and the Senate Hearing leaves us as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.
The daughter of a Yankee lawyer and school teacher she was born and raised in New York City’s bastion of liberalism the upper West Side. Chances are she never crossed paths with a moderate let alone an individual of conservative leanings until going off to college. Bless her heart, she really never had a fighting chance to grow up with anything but an extreme leftist, Socialist, bleeding heart, boneheaded, elitist, ultra-liberal judicial and political viewpoint.
8. Our Reluctant Astronaut-in-Chief’s has a new mission for NASA in addition to his canceling of all manned space missions. According to NASA head Charles Bolden who said in a recent interview with the Middle Eastern news network al-Jazeera "When I became the NASA administrator, he charged me with three things."One, he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math; two, he wanted me to expand our international relationships; and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering."
Truly a sad day in the storied history of NASA. We’ve gone from the glory days of Mercury, Apollo and whippen the Ruskies like a red headed step child to kissing Akbar’s Arab ass.
9. Ignoring the will of the people. Just as happy as if they had good sense the Obama Regime has unabashedly pursued a radical; extremist; left wing; progressive; secular; ultra-liberal; freedom stifling; liberty smothering; victim promoting; Marxist agenda that would make the likes of Stalin, Castro, Mao, and Michael “ Chocolate Covered Cream Filled“ Moore proud. Ain’t no never mind about it the now historic 2010 mid-term elections were a referendum on Obama/Pelosi/Reid’s Socialist vision for America and their Marxist dreams of grandeur.
However, anyone under the illusion that Mr. Obama’s visit to the woodshed humbled or modified his extremist Marxist views is crazier than an outhouse rat. This man is an authentic; wild eyed; true believer; Marxist Revolutionary hell bent on fundamental transformative change and global domination.
10. Selling Obamacare. President Obama and friends have been busier than a one legged man at an ass kicking contest attempting to sell a skeptical populace on the virtues of Obamacare. Considering most everything we were told – keep your doctor; keep your plan; lower cost; more benefits; deficit reduction; no death panels; no rationing – had absolutely no basis in truth their propaganda campaign hasn’t changed too many hearts and minds. This massive and extraordinarily expensive legislation is nothing but classic Marxist/Socialist doctrine deserving of our scorn and rejection.
After two years of getting “Sued, Screwed, and Tattooed” by Barack and his Socialist Regime with a new GOP dominated Congress it’s high time to turn the tables and give the President a little what for. All we need to know is whose name he wants in the heart shaped forearm tat. Mao, Castro, Mohamed, Rev. Wright, Marx, Stalin, or ACORN.
HAPPY NEW YEAR

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 100: “Do Tell, Do Tell”
Ah, what a joyous sight to see you in your sleep.
I believe I'm leavin'; I'm in too deep,
and that seems easy enough for a man to say.
But we would never agree if we talked all night.
Things are gettin' kind of heavy. I'm travelin' light.
Goodbye you jaded lover, you undercover queen for a day.
Well, I can see you are an angel,
Whose wings just won't unfold.
Tune up your harp; polish your old halo.
Well the only kind of man that you ever wanted
is one that you knew you'd never hold very long.
You're sittin' there cryin' like I'm the first one to go.
Think about it darlin “Jaded Lover” Jerry Jeff Walker
U.S. Armed Services are fixin to throw a coming out party the likes of which hasn’t been seen in these parts since Momma got early parole. Each and every gay and lesbian member of the military are kicking the closet doors wide open, publically declaring their sexual orientation, and giving an entirely different meaning to the phrase “the few, the proud, the Marines”.
After two years of prodding from the gay and lesbian community to keep his campaign promise President Obama and his Democrat Congressional comrades finally got around to repealing the Clinton era policy Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell (DADT) governing homosexuals in the military. The final vote was 65-31, drawing support from eight seriously misguided or enlightened Republicans, depending on one’s way of reckoning.
Our “Great Repealer of Discriminatory and Politically Incorrect Policies”-in-Chief remarked "It is time to close this chapter in our history, It is time to recognize that sacrifice, valor and integrity are no more defined by sexual orientation than they are by race or gender, religion or creed." Once the law is enacted gays will be openly accepted by the military for the first time in U.S. history and can go public with their sexual orientation without fear of being discharged.
All this social engineering, political correctness and sensitivity to diversity is lovely but seems to miss the point. The only real question is will gays and lesbians openly serving in the military enhance or diminish our ability to achieve victory on the battle field?
Truth be told most of us civilians are downright ignorant about the military way of life. To paraphrase General George S. Patton “they don’t know anything more about real battle than they do about fornicating”.
Military service and combat in particular is a unique and specialized endeavor that with few exceptions can’t be duplicated in a civilian environment. Barack Husain Obama, most of Congress, the media elite press and so called cultural thought leaders in New York and San Francisco simply are not qualified to make this decision.
A brief review of each service branch’s Mission Statements just might be a good starting point for all of us noncombatant civilians to conduct an evaluation of this issue:
• The Army’s mission is to fight and win our Nation’s wars by providing prompt, sustained land dominance across the full range of military operations and spectrum of conflict in support of combatant commanders.
• The mission of the United States Air Force is to deliver sovereign options for the defense of the United States of America and its global interests -- to fly and fight in Air, Space, and Cyberspace.
• The mission of the Navy is to maintain, train and equip combat-ready Naval forces capable of winning wars, deterring aggression and maintaining freedom of the seas.
• Semper Fidelis distinguishes the Marine Corps bond from any other. It goes beyond teamwork – it is a brotherhood and lasts for life.
Certainly seems to be several core values and central themes expressed here that we’d consider neutral as to the impact of homosexuals openly serving in the ranks. The jury is still out on the new policy’s influence on fighting, waging war, maintaining freedom, and victory on the battle field.
As for the Marine Corp’s Semper Fidelis, that goes way beyond teamwork to the formulation of a brotherhood and/or a true Warrior culture. Openly serving gays in this environment could certainly prove to be a major assimilation problem.
A poll issued by the Pentagon showed an overwhelming level of support of DADT’s repeal. However, the Pentagon polled all military "personnel" including their spouses, inlaws, pets and even thier no count white trash out of work third cousin on thier mother's side.
Only a small portion of the military actually does the fighting. According to the Pentagon study: "A higher percentage of service members in combat-fighting units predicted negative effects."
Bless thier hearts the Marines were the most resistant to overturning "don't ask, don't tell," with 58 percent of those in combat opposed. They simply can’t allow anything that interferes with unit cohesion, such as, dating amongst the ranks; flirting during fire fights; cooking classes breaking out; and periodic grab ass sessions.
Another interesting aspect of the DADT policy is the relatively low number of discharges for homosexuality. Only 13,500 since DADT’s implementation in 1993. That equates to an average of less than 800 discharges per year.
DADT discharges have also been extremely low in comparison to other infractions. Following are discharges for 2008 according to Defense Department records:
• Drugs: 5,627
• Serious offenses: 3,817
• Weight standards: 4,555
• Pregnancy: 2,353
• Parenthood: 2,574
• Homosexuality: 634
So, the central question still remains will gays and lesbians openly serving in the military enhance or diminish combat readiness, unit cohesion and military effectiveness? At this point hard to say.
What we do know:
1. The USO will need to line up some Broadway Show Tune artist for future tours
2. The color options for camouflage makeup will have to be expanded
3. Dress uniform will literally mean dress uniform
4. Going commando as a fashion statement will be prohibited
5. The caliber of play on the woman’s softball and golf teams will improve by leaps and bounds
6. Close Quarters Combat Training will require a chaperon
7. The number of recruits from San Francisco and Key West will dramatically increase
8. They are gonna make Congressman Barney “Freddie in the Fanny Mac” Frank a Five Star General
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 99: “Deja Vu All Over Again”
Off to see the lizard
Off to see the lizard
Deja deja deja vu, believe it
And it will come true
Veja Veja Veja du
What works for me might just work for you "Off to See The Lizard", Jimmy Buffett
On Friday afternoon of the 99th week of the most extreme, radical, left wing Administration to ever occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue an unprecedented event took place that had all who witnessed it thinking and/or saying “Deja Va All Over Again”.
Standing right on up behind the Presidential podium like he had good sense in the Briefing Room in the West Wing former President Bill “They Impeached My Happy Ass” Clinton was holding court with the White House press corps just like in his glory days back in the 1990’s. Seeing Bubba back in his old stomping grounds sure enough brought back some fond memories of vast right wing conspiracies; White Water; Travelgate; defining the word is; Jennifer, Paula, et all; Hillarycare; and the infamous blue dress.
Mr. Clinton was allegedly summoned to the Oval Office by our current Marxist / Socialist-in-Chief for a private political strategy session. According to conventional wisdom, political pundits, and far too many so called conservative thought leaders the President was seeking advice from the master on how to successfully pivot to the right; govern as a pragmatist; moderate; and employ a tactic known as triangulation which involves taking credit for GOP victories and the exploitation of any failures.
Only problem with the political pundit’s, genius commentators, and inside the beltway media elite’s overwhelming general consensus of the purpose of this high level Presidential bull session is:
1. Barack Husain Obama is a true believer in a Marxist / Socialist Revolution , he is committed and passionate about orchestrating a massive global redistribution of wealth, he is an extreme advocate and supporter of the Communist Manifesto and it’s call to arms advancing the destruction of America from within, and he is fiercely opposed to changing his class warfare promoting Bolshevik ways to pivot right or achieve triangulation with the GOP.

Truth be told according to our high placed White House sources President Obama met with former President Clinton to discuss options for setting up a White House Internship program. Mr. Obama was impressed by “Saturday Night” Bill’s active hands on approach with his Interns and thought some pointers would certainly be helpful.
For his part former President Clinton wanted to personally, face to face, thank President Obama for sending Hillary on so many overnight trips. Hillary’s frequent absences affording our former “Tail Hound”-in-Chief with ample opportunities to step out on the “Pants Suited One”.
After 90 minutes or there abouts of Clinton extracurricular sexual conquest stories our “Propagandist”-in-Chief realized his adoring White House press corps would be expecting a few comments about his meeting with the former President. The truth not really being an option, SOP for this crowd, the two agreed to publically endorse the Tax Rate Extension Bill recently negotiated with the GOP.
Giddy as two schools girls in anticipation of being broadcast to a global TV audience, the President’s favorite undertaking and Wild Bill’s second, it was off to the Briefing Room for an improptude presser. The media elite gathered, cameras and microphones activated the President stepped up to the podium for a few opening remarks.
What followed was sure enough one of the most bizarre moments of the Obama Presidency. Our current President abruptly interrupted the former Chief Executive, announced his immediate departure citing some absurd excuse about not annoying the wife by running late to some party and then departing leaving Mr. Clinton at his Presidential podium; addressing his White House press corps; advocating for and defending his Tax Rate Extension deal.
Ain’t no never mind about it this “Deja Va All Over Again” White House moment literally seemed like an unofficial temporary transfer of power from Obama to Clinton. Totally unconstitutional not that a minor detail like that ever stopped either one of these constitutional scholars from pursuing their respective political agendas.
Following is a brief summary of our observations and analyses of Mr. Obama’s abdication of power:
• Obama the man looked weak, inexperienced and clueless
• Bill Clinton coming in to validate Obama’s tax deal with the GOP further demeaned the stature of the Presidency
• The notion of Clinton appeasing the left wingers in the democratic caucus on Obama’s behalf is ludicrous. Clinton has no real political convictions but compared to Obama he looks like Rush Limbaugh
• Next time President Obama gets a hankering to abdicate power hopefully he’ll transfer it over to W, Halley Barber, Newt or some other good southern conservative that won’t hesitate to tell our Chief Executive and all his Congressional comrades what for.
• Allowing Bubba to hold center stage and respond to additional non tax extension deal questions further diminished Obama’s stature
White House Chief Propaganda Officer Robert Gibbs called for the last question after about thirty minutes realizing “Saturday Night” Bill would stay all night given the opportunity. The perfect way to end a memorable day immediately following former President Clinton’s final remarks there was an awful ruckus under the Presidential podium and Lord have mercy out rolled Monica Lewinsky.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 98: Comrade Obama’s “Sputnik Moment”
"Speakin' of fruitcakes, how 'bout the government?
Your tax dollars at work.
We lost our Martian rocket ship
The high paid spokesman said
Looks like that silly rocket ship
Has lost its cone shaped head
We spent 90 jillion dollars trying to get a look at Mars
I hear universal laughter ringing out among the stars” Fruitcakes, Jimmy Buffett.
For the first time in 98 weeks our Comrade-in-Chief was dragged kicking and screaming to the table forced to negotiate with the GOP because of the recent historic Republican victory in the midterm election. Considering his unprofessional and immature behavior in response to this new reality the next two years promise to be chock full of political intrigue and theatre.
True to form immediately following a compromise agreement on extending W tax rates and Unemployment benefits the President whipped out the ole teleprompter and stood right on up behind the podium like he had good sense and lied about the Republican’s position; advanced his victim status; acted like a six year old having a hissy fit; belittled and demonized his political adversaries; and displayed the low rent, cowardly, delusional, self serving, no class character flaws we’ve come to expect from Mr. Obama.
Right smack dab in the middle of this Democrat political catastrophe, the Wikileak foreign affairs debacle, and our continued limp wristed response to North Korean aggression and Iran’s nuclear weapon ambitions our Stifler of Entrepreneurenship-in-Chief traveled to the Research Triangle in North Carolina and made a bizarre challenge to lawmakers and the private sector business community to help America achieve the next “Sputnik Moment”. Only a genuine Marxist /Socialist /Bolshevik would evoke a Sputnik analogy to encourage the United States of America to pursue new and unprecedented levels of discovery and innovation.
As a reminder his "Sputnik Moment" is a reference to the Soviet Union’s 1957 launch of the first Earth-orbiting satellite. Letting the Soviets win this historical milestone was an extremely embarrassing moment for Uncle Sammy but was also one of many setbacks we experienced in the “Space Race” with the Ruskies.
Ain’t no never mind about it our ultimate success and victory over Ivan with Neil Armstrong’s “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” onto the Lunar surface was an unparalleled scientific achievement. A combination of the best and brightest folks and the epitome of U.S. innovation and ingenuity.
Truly an extraordinary achievement but also indicative of American creativity, inventive spirit and passion for discovery prevalent since Colonial times and the Revolution. Why the President chose to refer to a 50 year old USSR success story as opposed to one of literally thousands of home grown scientific achievements to promote current/future innovation is as big a mystery as his religious affiliation.
Examples of American scientific breakthroughs to motivate and inspire today’s risk takers and world shakers are more abundant than white on rice. One of our most prominent Founding Fathers, Ben Franklin, was responsible for three inventions that radically improved millions of people’s quality of life.
Franklin Stoves were in all likelihood the world’s first green/eco- friendly home appliance reducing toxic emissions by 80% or there abouts compared to conventional stoves of those times. His Bifocals prolonged the gift of sight for thousands and Lightening Rods saved countless lives from a horrific death of being burned alive in fires caused by lightning strikes.
Any one or all three of these ingenious Franklin inventions are ideal examples of U.S. advancements Mr. Obama could have cited in support of his American Innovation Initiative. Truth be told there are thousands of pre and post Sputnik American technological breakthroughs that the President could have chosen to help promote his new program.
Following is a partial listing of truly remarkable innovations and world changing inventions created by American entrepreneurs, visionaries and nation builders:
Pre-Sputnik
• Cotton Gin / Suspension Bridge / Morse code / Anesthesia / Potato Chips / Toilet Paper (surely one of the world’s most appreciated inventions) / Repeating rifle / Machine gun / Motor cycle / Paper bag / Phonograph / Model T / Coca Cola / Solar cell / telephone / light bulb / Zipper / Tractor / Mouse trap / Assembly line / Air conditioning / Bourbon / Airplane / Toaster (sliced bread) / Ice cube tray (Truly a life saver) / Bubble gum / Teflon / Microwave oven / Supersonic aircraft / SEC College Football / Bar code / Hard disk drive / Laser / Atom bomb
Post Sputnik
• Spandex / Communications satellite / Neutron bomb / Bomb shelters / Cordless telephone / Microprocessor / Professional Wrestling / PC / Email / Mobile phone/ MRI / Internet / Nano wire battery / Microsoft / Monster Truck Rallies / Google / Apple / Facebook
With options ranging from light bulbs and TP to Nuetron bombs and Microsoft we can only hope Commrade Obama shifts strategy and selects an American success story to help promote his Innovation Initiative. If our Cosmonaut-in-Chief still insist on achieving a “Sputnik Moment” we suggest he knock back a few shots of vodka and execute a single orbit around the Rose Garden with First Pooch Bolshivik the Water Dog.

Week 98: Comrade Obama’s “Sputnik Moment”
"Speakin' of fruitcakes, how 'bout the government?
Your tax dollars at work.
We lost our Martian rocket ship
The high paid spokesman said
Looks like that silly rocket ship
Has lost its cone shaped head
We spent 90 jillion dollars trying to get a look at Mars
I hear universal laughter ringing out among the stars” Fruitcakes, Jimmy Buffett.
For the first time in 98 weeks our Comrade-in-Chief was dragged kicking and screaming to the table forced to negotiate with the GOP because of the recent historic Republican victory in the midterm election.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 97: Ba Ba Walters Part ll
Now I'm not one to deal in gossip
But was he that big a fool
To do a belly-buster high dive
And miss the entire pool
But you can hear it on the coconut telegraph
By now everybody knows
You can hear it on the coconut telegraph
Just who comes and goes
Comes and goes, comes and goes Coconut Telegraph, Jimmy Buffett
On Tuesday of the 97th week of the Titanicish Obama Administration one of the most elite of the liberal media elite interviewed our Propagandist-in-Chief along with the little woman. Sure enough a virtuoso performance it was as obvious as white on rice that ABC and Barbara “Ba Ba” Walters were hell bent on giving our besieged Chief Executive some positive primetime exposure and serious public brown nosing.
Out of over 120 questions asked by Ba Ba 70 or their abouts had absolutely nothing what so ever to do with policy, current events or issues of substance. Instead the so called journalist Walters did her more typical gossip columnist routine covering topics more likely to be of interest to the National Inquirer subscriber rather than the Wall Street Journal or even the liberal rag the New York Times reader.
Following are several examples of some of the most irrelevant, fluff, meaningless, softball, propaganda enabling topics and questions Ba Ba offered up to the First Couple
• Thanksgiving plans
• Cleaning the White House
• Pardoning a turkey
• Bolshevik the Water Dog tricks - shaking hands then he gets his tummy rubbed
• The President’s continued pathetic attempts to point out similarities with Abe Lincoln. Other than a similar build and huge floppy ears the two are polar opposites. Abe was a patriot and a great American. Barack is first and foremost a global citizen and a blame America first extremist
• Watching football.
• The First Lady’s alleged expertise on sports.
• LeBron James
• The Royal Wedding
• Do the girls watch the news?
• Are the girls still writing to Santa?
• The Tooth Fairy
• Childhood obesity.
• The First Lady’s toned arms
• The breaking news she wasn’t wearing a sleeveless dress
• The President’s knowledge of the First Gal’s wardrobe
Ain’t no never mind about it this is truly some world shaking, award winning, hardcore investigative journalism. The President’s views and opinions about the Royal Wedding, LeBron James and the Tooth Fairy, (Barnie Frank) might be of interest to Ba Ba and her media elite comrades but as for the rest of us we don’t really give a happy by damn.
Completely ignoring or putting a positive spin on the multitude of ill advised, boneheaded, and Socialist policy initiatives this Administration has pursued is so typical of the far left wing, liberal, mainstream media elite press. Following is a partial list including some of these boneheaded policies and several other issues that have been totally mismanaged by the “Yes We Can “ gang:
• North Korea’s unprovoked attack on South Korea
• Challenges in Afghanistan
• Wikileak (sounds like the name of a Hawaiian Porta – John company) confidential State Department document dump
• W tax rate extensions
• Federal worker salary freeze
• Repeal of Obamacare
• Immigration
• The Deficit Commission
• Iran
• Extending Unemployment
• Passing the next FY Budget
• Working with the newly elected GOP Congressional leadership
To be fair Babs did ask about several of these issues but the questions were few and far between and so obviously formulated to favorably spin the President’s responses. Following are a few excerpts from the Obamas – Walters propaganda fest:
BARBARA WALTERS: Your husband has said that you are his chief advisor. So what did you say to him the night of November 2nd, when he was -- as he put it -- "shellacked"?
FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA: I said, "Let's, let's get to work. There is a lot to do." There… I, I think for, for us, it's always the focus on what we need to get done, the work ahead.
• These folk are experiencing a classic case of denial and/or they just don’t care about the will of the people.
BARBARA WALTERS: This man who was considered such a great communicator. What did he do wrong?
FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA: It's a tough time. I mean, my understanding is that, number one, every president in history has lost Congress at the midterms. Maybe that's overstating it, but it's happened for every president in, in my lifetime.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: It's the norm.
• For two alleged brilliant Harvard Law grads and a legendary journalist they sure failed miserably to disclose the facts on this issue. As recently as the 2002 midterm under W the GOP actually picked up seats.
BARBARA WALTERS: Mr. President, your supporters say that you saved the banking industry from collapse. And you saved the automobile industry. You have cut taxes for the middle class. If you did all of these things, why are you so unpopular?
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Well…Well, first of all, Barbara, I am… I am not so unpopular…
BARBARA WALTERS: First I gave you the compliment…
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Oh, I appreciate that. Well, first of all, I am not so unpopular. I mean, my…poll numbers are a little higher than Bill Clinton's were at this point in the presidency, or Ronald Reagan's were at this point in his presidency. And, we have gone through a really tough time. And so, no matter how much good stuff we have done, people still are looking at 9.6 percent unemployment and that's frustrating for people. And I don't make any excuses
• No excuses. The man has spent the last 97 weeks shouting from the mountain tops that W and the GOP are to blame for all of our economic woes, world hunger and global warming. With all due respect Mr. President, excuse this.
BARBARA WALTERS: What do you do when you're under stress? Do you have a glass of wine? Do you… I don't know, what do you do? Exercise?
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Yeah, you know, I, I've been pretty religious about exercising.
FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA: Yeah.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: And Michelle is too. And so that helps relieve stress.
• A lot of us were born at night but not last night. We have it on good authority the President regularly chills by chain smoking KOOLS out behind the Rose Garden. As for the First Lady five or six vodka tonics or a pitcher of Bloodies usually does the trick.
An encore performance this was Ba Ba’s second time to interview the leader of the free world since the “Change/Believe” crowd infested the White House. Not surprisingly nothing of value was revealed on either occasion.
In closing, we are happy to report the President is recovering nicely from a basketball injury he received last week. A sharp elbow to the face sent our Dribbler-in-Chief off to the Doc for 12 stitches and some narcotics to ease his pain.
We were right proud to see President Obama on TV walking stoically (CGG) to the limo head held high, chin out, shoulders back on his way for treatment. That being said we were also informed by highly placed credible sources that upon securing himself in the limo out of public view Barack Husain Obama cried like a little girl all the way back to the White House.
Truth be told we don’t have even a frog’s hair worth of proof or evidence to support this claim but that’s our story and we are sticking to it.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 96: Lowering the Bar to New and Unprecedented Depths
Cause I got friends in low places,
Where the Whiskey drowns,
And the Beer chases my blues away,
But I'll be okay,
Now I'm not big on social graces,
Think I'll slip on down to the Oasis,
Oh I got friends,
In low places.
Friends in Low Places, Garth Brooks
President Obama and his cadre of fellow political hacks in the White House have sure enough lowered the expectations bar and the definition of success and victory to new and unprecedented depths. The Federal trial of Islamic Jihadist terrorist Ahmed Ghailani that concluded in New York City this week for his role in the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania is the most recent example of this Administration’s delusionary reckoning when it comes to establishing expectations.
According to our “Constitutional Scholar Slick Yankee Lawyer-in-Chief”,Veep Uncle Joe “Truly Dumber Than a Bag of Hammers” Biden and Senior Political Hack/Terrorist Sympathizer Attorney General Eric Holder Ghailani’s conviction on one count of Conspiracy and acquittal on over 280 mostly more serious charges was a legal victory of Koranic, we mean Biblical, proportions. Reckon all those Murder, Attempted Murder, and Acts of Terror charges weren’t that important after all.
Strictly adhering to his philosophy for a happy, healthy and productive life – “Ignorance is Bliss” - Uncle Joe remarked:
• “The single Ahmed Ghailani guilty verdict was a victory and the outcome of this first-of-its-kind trial is better than if Ghailani had been tried in a military tribunal. He's getting a longer sentence. He'll be in jail longer than if any other method were tried. Same thing George Bush did with the shoe bomber. Same thing he did with the 24th hijacker,"
Only the Obama Administration would consider one guilty verdict out of 280 charges as a victory. This arrogant and elitist viewpoint is certainly consistent with their “Barackasswards” way of thinking for the last 96 weeks.
Following are several additional examples of further lowering the bar and failed policy initiatives touted as grand victories and successes by the “Yes We Can Lie Our Way to Victory Because the Public is Too Ignorant to Know the Difference” gang:
• One Trillion Dollar Stimulus – Promised it would keep unemployment under 8%. We’re at 9.5-10% for as far as the eye can see. No new jobs, increase in consumer spending or shovel ready projects. According to our President saved the economy from slipping into depression and has been an unqualified success. Truth be told has added a Trillion to national debt, saved some public sector union jobs and paid back mostly other labor union constituencies but not even a frog hair’s worth of any real private sector economic growth
• Auto Industry Bailout – In spite of GM’s successful IPO this week the chances of we the taxpaying public getting paid back on this one are slim to none. Proclaimed as a great victory by the White House the only real beneficiaries are the labor union pension funds
• Scott Brown election – Breaking out in a bad case of wishful thinking the Obama propaganda machine claimed Brown’s victory in the race for Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat was by no means a repudiation of the Administration but more of the folks desire for Change carrying over from 08 election. A serious miscalculation and an omen for the pending disaster of the mid-term elections
• Mid-term Elections – In their own words a historical political shellacking. Perpetually suspended in a classic case of denial the Obamanites refuse to accept and/or acknowledge defeat. With the bar for victory set so low they are claiming a win citing their majority (slim as it may be) in the Senate and control of the Executive Branch. True believers and revolutionaries all a course correction to the right is seriously doubtful
• Nobel Peace Prize – The Obama “How low can we go” philosophy even further contaminated the already rotting Nobel Prize evaluation process by selecting him as their 2009 Peace Prize recipient. Awarding this once prestiges honor to such an undeserving and unqualified individual hit a new low even surpassing the 1994 winner PLO Terrorist Yasser Arafat, whose brother Nawsir accepted the Award in Stockholm on his brother’s behalf.
President “Low Bar” Obama, VP Uncle Joe “Dumber Than a Bag of Rocks” Biden and most Senior of Political hacks AG Eric Holder have also openly and without shame proclaimed that the one successful conviction of Ghailani even with 280 acquittals, only Yankee lawyers with no experience in the private sector would consider a .00357% hit rate as a favorable outcome, proves Islamic enemy combatants will receive swifter and more severe justice in our Civil/Federal Courts as opposed to Military Tribunals or Commissions.
In our humble opinion anyone agreeing with this totally baseless; irrational; illogical; absolutely absurd conclusion is not only one can short of a six pack but also crazier than an outhouse rat. In fact, when you consider the one conviction and 280 acquittals Ghailani is the new poster child for Military Tribunals/Commissions.
A brief summary of the advantages of conducting Military Tribunals or Commissions for Islamic Jihadist enemy combatants follows:
• George Washington was the first and used military tribunals during the American Revolution
• The Union used military tribunals during and in the immediate aftermath of the War for Southern Independence
• A military tribunal/commission is an inquisitorial system. Charges are brought by military authorities, prosecuted by a military authority, judged by military officers, and sentenced by military officers against an adversarial force.
• Defendants are typically offered fewer legal protections in military commissions than civilian courts, such as the right to public proceedings and a trial by jury.
• The standard for admitting evidence is more rigorous in civilian court
• As it is with many war powers, the Constitution is vague about the scope of military commissions allowing for a high degree of Presidential discretion when using this option.
Ain’t no never mind about it the Obama Administration’s policy of treating Islamic Jihadist terrorist like common criminals is an abject failure. No matter how far they lower the bar on what constitutes success or a victory the Ahmed Ghailani conviction on one count of Conspiracy and acquittal on over 280 more serious charges in a Civil Court is a major political defeat and serious setback for all the terrorist sympathizers in the White House.
Anyone that tries to tell us otherwise is either dumber than a bag of hammers, crazier than a run over dog or as dishonest as the day is long. In Vice President Uncle Joe Biden’s case all three.

President “Low Bar” Obama, VP Uncle Joe “Dumber Than a Bag of Rocks” Biden and most Senior of Political hacks AG Eric Holder have also openly and without shame proclaimed that the one successful conviction of Ghailani even with 280 acquittals, only Yankee lawyers with no experience in the private sector would consider a .00357% hit rate as a favorable outcome, proves Islamic enemy combatants will receive swifter and more severe justice in our Civil/Federal Courts as opposed to Military Tribunals or Commissions.
In our humble opinion anyone agreeing with this totally baseless; irrational; illogical; absolutely absurd conclusion is not only one can short of a six pack but also crazier than an outhouse rat. In fact, when you consider the one conviction and 280 acquittals Ghailani is the new poster child for Military Tribunals/Commissions.
A brief summary of the advantages of conducting Military Tribunals or Commissions for Islamic Jihadist enemy combatants follows:
• George Washington was the first and used military tribunals during the American Revolution
• The Union used military tribunals during and in the immediate aftermath of the War for Southern Independence
• A military tribunal/commission is an inquisitorial system. Charges are brought by military authorities, prosecuted by a military authority, judged by military officers, and sentenced by military officers against an adversarial force.
• Defendants are typically offered fewer legal protections in military commissions than civilian courts, such as the right to public proceedings and a trial by jury.
• The standard for admitting evidence is more rigorous in civilian court
• As it is with many war powers, the Constitution is vague about the scope of military commissions allowing for a high degree of Presidential discretion when using this option.
Ain’t no never mind about it the Obama Administration’s policy of treating Islamic Jihadist terrorist like common criminals is an abject failure. No matter how far they lower the bar on what constitutes success or a victory the Ahmed Ghailani conviction on one count of Conspiracy and acquittal on over 280 more serious charges in a Civil Court is a major political defeat and serious setback for all the terrorist sympathizers in the White House.
Anyone that tries to tell us otherwise is either dumber than a bag of hammers, crazier than a run over dog or as dishonest as the day is long. In Vice President Uncle Joe Biden’s case all three.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 95: “Class”
“Show some class, act like you've been there before” Coach Paul Bear Bryant
Class. Some folks got it, some ain’t. Our 44th President, Barack Husain Obama, can damn sure be counted amongst those that ain’t.
In fact, the entire notion of class is as foreign of a concept to our “No Count, No Class, Tacky Yankee Lawyer-in-Chief“ as Capitalism; American exceptionalism; honesty; integrity; free enterprise; a balanced budget; small government; and humility. Truth be told, Mr. Obama wouldn’t recognize class if it crawled up behind him and bit him on his low rent, no taste, happy Bolshevik ass.
George W Bush’s reemergence on the national scene this week with the release of his book Decision Points reminds us with every interview of the pride, confidence and comfort derived from having a Commander-in-Chief who conducts himself with dignity and class worthy of the Office he occupies. Agree or disagree with his policies the man’s sincerity, love of country, integrity, resolve, respect for the office and common decency are undeniable.
Since leaving office 95 weeks ago the Obama Administration has blamed W for every calamity known to mankind. The recession, deficits, exploding national debt, earthquake in Haiti; Red Tide; Black Plague; floods; new Coke; and the rise and fall of the Holy Roman Empire have all been attributed to W by the “Yes We Can” gang.
To his credit W has refused to retaliate stating he has too much respect for the Office of the Presidency to publically criticize his successor. This display of class, decorum and dignity has put a serious hitch-in-the-get-along of all the Obama political hacks and thugs currently occupying the West Wing.
These two men sure enough are polar opposites in so many ways. Truly diametrically opposed when it comes to policy; character; upbringing; values; world view; belief system; and priorities.
Following are few specific examples starting with W:
• One has class – the other is a tacky, no count, low life, Yankee lawyer
• One publically proclaims his unconditional love for his family – the other publically throws his Grandmother under the bus calling her a racist for political expediency
• One is a Capitalist – the other is a Marxist/Socialist
• One believes in American exceptionalism – the other blames America for all of the world’s major problems
• One speaks the truth – the other lies with the ease a duck takes to water
• One promotes Democracy at home and abroad – the other promotes Socialism at home and abroad
• One knows and ain’t shy about saying we are at war with Islamic Jihadist – the other refuses to implicate his Muslim brethren
• One is a direct, down to earth, common sense conservative – the other is an arrogant, left wing, liberal elitist
• One has a Harvard MBA, has created real jobs in the private sector and knows what it means to meet a payroll – the other is a Harvard Law grad, a pointy headed academic who despises the private sector
• One believes in individual responsibility – the other wants cradle to grave government intervention
• One promotes personal freedom – the other promotes a victim class
• One speaks with a Texas drawl that rolls off the tongue like a sweet melody – the other jabbers on endlessly with that tacky Yankee nasal twang with just a hint of a French accent
At each and every interview W has granted this week some very able and seasoned journalist including the likes of Bill O’Reilley, Candy Crowley, Matt Lauer and Oprah tried every trick in their trade to get him to tell President Obama what for. His discipline, resolve and refusal to stoop to Obama’s level has been an impressive display of his strength of character and class.
W’s direct, honest, and sincere responses to this all-star cast of journalist has been a real breath of fresh air. In contrast it’s not hard to imagine our “Orator of Empty Rhetoric-in-Chief’s” sanctimonious; self righteous; blame everyone but himself; crybaby; lawyered up; dishonest; no class answers to some of the same questions.
For instance:
• O'REILLY: That frightens me because it could happen again. It could happen again.
• BUSH: Of course it could happen again and it has happened before. This was a confluence of events and so I try to take the reader through, you know, the trade deficits, some money coming into the country
• OBAMA: It was W’s fault when it happened before, now and if it ever happens again. My deficit busting, debt exploding, spending palooza policies certainly had absolutely nothing at all to do with it.
• O'REILLY: Were you scared when you ordered the surge, and it was like you against the world? I mean, tell the truth.
• BUSH: I don't think scared is the right -- right...
• O'REILLY: Apprehensive?
• BUSH: No, I was convinced that -- that if we didn't put more troops in...
• O'REILLY: But you were alone.
• BUSH: ...we would lose. And if we lost, that the consequences would be catastrophic.
• OBAMA: We’ve lost the war, the surge will never work, no way no how, we’re are nothing more than an imperialist occupying army that needs to withdraw from our criminal invasion of holy Islamic territory
• MATT LAUER: You remember what he said? (Kanye West )
• BUSH: Yes, I do. He called me a racist.
• LAUER: Well, what he said, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people.”
• BUSH: That’s — “he’s a racist.” And I didn’t appreciate it then. I don’t appreciate it now. It’s one thing to say, “I don’t appreciate the way he’s handled his business.” It’s another thing to say, “This man’s a racist.” I resent it, it’s not true, and it was one of the most disgusting moments in my Presidency.
• OBAMA: W is a racist. There’s no other logical explanation why he and so many other white trash crackers would disagree with all of my brilliant ideas
• OPRAH: After addressing the nation from that Sarasota elementary school, President Bush says he was heading back to Air Force One to fly to Washington, D.C., when he learned a third plane had crashed into the Pentagon.
• BUSH: "My construct was this," President Bush says. "The first one was likely an accident, the second one was an attack, and the third one was a declaration of war
• OBAMA: That wasn’t a declaration of war. That was our chickens coming home to roost. Our global oppression of innocent Muslims by war criminals like W brought this “Man Made Disaster” upon us.
“I always want my players to show class, knock'em down, pat on the back, and run back to the huddle” Coach Paul Bear Bryant
This Country has had the good fortune and good sense to elect quite a few individuals to the Office of the Presidency that for the most part conducted their affairs with a high degree integrity, honor and class. Several more recent examples include Truman; Ike; Ford; Reagan; Bush 41; and W.
We have also endured our share of classless, sometimes clueless, often ethically challenged Chief Executives including the likes of the town drunk and ”Buffoon-in-Chief” LBJ; Richard “ Watergate, I’m not a crook, Tricky Dick, Checkers“ Nixon; Jimmy, “Peanut, lust in his heart, 20% interest rates, malaise boy, maybe the worst President in the history of the Union, at least up till now,” Carter; and Bill “Slick Willie, impeachment boy, molester of knee padded interns, Bubba” Clinton.
Class. Some folks got it, some ain’t. W. has reminded us in no uncertain terms that our 44th President, Barack Husain Obama, can damn sure be counted amongst those that ain’t.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 94: “Self Inflicted Wounds”
“Payin' for the gas he wickedly shouted thanks
And continued on his journey all once again
Just about the time a siren fast-approached and
The pot bellied sheriff he whizzed right in
With his self inflicted grammar started shoutin'
Accusations at the long haired greasy looking ape
While a local d.j. from the fifty watt station got
The whole damn thing on tape”
Truckstop-Salvation, Jimmy Buffett
President Obama along with three thousand of his closest friends loaded up several jumbo jets and took off for a ten day so called diplomatic mission to India and several other Southeast Asian countries while they lick their wounds and solidify a serious case of denial over the self described shellacking they endured last week in the mid-term elections. In addition to this colossal waste of time and tax payer money the Administration also continued its seemingly uncontrolled practice of imposing “Self Inflicted Wounds” on both the domestic and foreign relations fronts.
While the President visited his childhood stomping grounds in Jakarta where he had studied the Koran while attending Little Future Islamic Jihadist Grammar School for four years back in the States the Administration shot itself in the foot again. In a move that seems crazier than a run over dog the White House over turned eight years of perfectly reasonable policy by volunteering to subject the Home of the Brave and the Land of the Free to an official human rights review by a mess of tyrants, villains and despots at the United Nations.
Following is summary of the insanity surrounding this asinine and absolutely ludicrous Presidential Directive:
• In the same category as supporting the building of a Mosque at ground zero, accusing the Cambridge Police of being a bunch of racist, and conducting Islamic terrorist trials for 9/11 enemy combatants in civilian courts in New York City allowing the boneheaded yahoos at the UN to evaluate and condemn our human rights record is nothing less than absurd
• Another incredible act of appeasement and obviously a major strategic initiative of the President’s “Bend Over, Grab His Ankles, Thank You Sir May I Have Another” Foreign Policy
• Obama and Madam Secretary of State Hillary “Sarge” Clinton sent three top officials from the State Department to Geneva’s U.N. Human Rights Council to be questioned about America’s human rights record by the likes of Cuba, Iran, and North Korea, sure enough credible human rights advocates one and all
• According to the Council’s procedure, all U.N. members are given free reign to comment and make recommendations to the state under scrutiny. But since only three hours are allotted per state, the practice has emerged of allowing only the first sixty or there abouts to actually speak.
• Last week our very own President allowed this most just, free and compassionate of nations to be ridiculed by fifty-six countries that took full advantage of the opportunity to tell the U.S. representatives what for, many standing in line overnight in order to be near the top of the list. Standing at the front of the line just like they had good sense were Cuba, Venezuela, Russia, Iran, Nicaragua, Bolivia, and North Korea.
• Cuba said the U.S. blockade of Cuba was a “crime of genocide,” Iran “condemned and expressed its deep concern over the situation of human rights” in the United States, and North Korea said it was “concerned by systematic widespread violations committed by the United States at home and abroad.”
• Additional recommendations to improve the U.S. human rights record included Cuba’s advice to end “violations against migrants and mentally ill persons” and “ensure the right to food and health.”
• Iran who routinely stone Iranian woman for adultery told the U.S. “effectively to combat violence against women.”
• North Korea which systematically starves its own citizens told the U.S. “to address inequalities in housing, employment and education” and “prohibit brutality by law enforcement officials.”
• Libya accused us of “racism, racial discrimination and intolerance.”
• Russia urged the U.S. to abolish the death penalty. Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim nation, demanded Washington to better promote religious tolerance, and Mexico complained that racial profiling had become a common practice in some U.S. states.
• To add insult to injury the seemingly anti - U.S.Obama Administration even submitted a 20-page report to the UN listing alleged US human rights violations including Arizona’s Immigration laws and other perfectly legal and constitutional activities that only the head case left wing Marxist/Socialist “Yes We Can” gang in the White House would consider human rights violations
Getting a tongue lashing about fictional human rights violations from countries that routinely murder, torture and illegally imprison millions of their own citizens is the ultimate case of the proverbial pot calling the kettle black. A quick review of a few of the worst offenders, Cuba; Venezuela; Russia; Iran; North Korea, reinforces the absurdity of Mr. Obama’s insistence that we participate in this U.N. farce:
Cuba:
• Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life
• Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment
• Arbitrary Arrest or Detention
• Denial of Fair Public Trials
• Limits on Freedom of Speech and Press
• Limits on Freedom of Religion
Venezuela:
• Harassment Campaign Against Human Rights Defenders
• Chavez’s New Censorship Office
• Attacks on Judicial Independence
• Prosecutions of Dissenters
• Abusing Broadcast Powers
• Border Killings and Attack
Russia:
• systematic torture of persons in custody by police
• neglect and cruelty in Russian orphanages
• violations of children's right
• discrimination, racism and murders of members of ethnic minorities
• widespread murders of journalists
Iran:
• harsh penalties for crimes
• punishment of "victimless crimes" such as fornication and homosexuality
• execution of offenders under 18 years of age
• restrictions on freedom of speech and the press including the imprisonment of journalists
• unequal treatment according to religion and gender
• the execution of thousands of political prisoners
Korea
• Torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, public execution and arbitrary detention
• the absence of due process and the rule of law
• imposition of the death penalty for political reasons, the existence of a large number of prison camps and the extensive use of forced labor
• All pervasive and severe restrictions on the freedoms of thought, conscience, religion, opinion and expression, peaceful assembly and association
• Continued violation of the human rights and fundamental freedoms of women, in particular the trafficking of women for prostitution or forced marriage and ethnically motivated forced abortions
Our”Citizen of the World-in-Chief’s” willingness to diminish and weaken our standing in the world by lending the prestige and credibility of the United States of America to some corrupt U.N. sham is truly troubling. The man is seemingly hell bent on redistributing wealth at home and the power and esteem of our great Nation abroad.
Participating in an U.N. Human Rights evaluation is not just a “Self Inflicted Wound” it’s a self inflicted frontal lobotomy. We’re sure enough no expert on the subject but seriously doubt the President can handle too many more of these mind altering procedures.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 93: Mr. Obama Goes to the Woodshed
Johnny kneeled and measured his feet
For the idiot's hall of fame
Janey shined a tarnished heart
And told Cupid to take game
And I raised a toast to Peggy Lee
'cause there had to be more to this game
I grabbed my hat, picked up my shoes
Collected everything I could use
And I made my way out alive with the Woodshed Blues
I grabbed my hat, picked up my shoes
Collected everything I could use
And I made my way out alive with the Woodshed Blues
Steve Wynn, The Woodshed Blues
Our “Marxist/Socialist, Promoter of Oppressive/Intrusive Government, Deficit Exploder, Record Debt Accumulator, Reckless Spender of Other People’s Money-in-Chief “done got taken to the woodshed for a beating of a life time this week. A truly “Come to Mohammad“ meeting with the American people who in no uncertain terms just told our 44th President what for along with his Democrat Congressional comrades for their corrupt, incompetent, and elitist governing for the last 93 weeks.
Just as happy as if they had good sense the Obama Regime has unabashedly pursued a radical; extremist; left wing; progressive; secular; ultra-liberal; freedom stifling; liberty smothering; victim promoting; Marxist agenda that would make the likes of Stalin, Castro, Mao, and Michael “ Chocolate Covered Cream Filled“ Moore proud. Ain’t no never mind about it the now historic 2010 mid-term elections were a referendum on Obama/Pelosi/Reid’s Socialist vision for America and their Marxist dreams of grandeur.
To put this monumental Democrat political disaster in context and perspective, a loss of 65 plus House seats and at least 6 in the Senate, is the third worst whooping ever delivered by a sitting President’s opposition party since 1900. A review of previous big swing mid-term elections tells the tale:
• Over the past fifty years there have been 12 midterm elections. 5 of them resulted in large losses of at least 20 seats by the President’s party.
• 1994-52 seats; 1974-49 seats; 1966-47 seats; 2006-30 seats; 1982-26 seats
• Another five elections resulted either in small losses or gains by the president’s party
• It has been noted countless times that the President's party usually loses seats in Congress during midterm elections. Since 1900, the President's party has lost an average of 29 House seats and 3.4 Senate seats
• This year the GOP beat the 100 plus year averages by 30 plus seats in the House and 3 in the Senate
In the grand scheme of things, especially when one considers the mainstream media elite press still worships the Anointed One with the fervor and blind faith of a cult, this week’s Democrat flogging is nothing less than remarkable. Following are the top ten factors that brought on this extraordinary shift in political fortunes:
1. An overwhelming number of our fellow Americans finally realized when you plant a tater (Socialist) you get a tater (Socialist).
2. $3 Trillion of new debt in just 93 weeks
3. An almost 40% increase in Federal spending
4. A $1 Trillion stimulus that didn’t stimulate even a frog hair’s worth of economic activity or ROI
5. Obamacare/Socialized Medicine
6. 10% Unemployment as far as the eye can see
7. Cap and Tax
8. Intrusive Regulatory Reform
9. Weak pacifist foreign policy
10. Corrupt, dishonest, tyrannical, arrogant, elitist leadership model
Tuesday’s election wasn’t a total Democrat loss but it damn sure came close. A summary of the “Worst and Best” from the 2010 Mid-term election is listed below:
WORST
• The Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialist Barack H Obama is still the President
• The Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialist Harry Reid is still the Senate Majority Leader
• The Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialist Nancy Pelosi won’t officially become former Madame Speaker till January
• The Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialist Democrats still have control of the Senate
• The Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialist Barbara “Don’t call me Mam call me silly winch I’ve earned it” Boxer won
• The Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialist Barny “Freddie in the Fannie Mac” Frank won
• The seriously misguided citizens of Connecticut elected low life Senator-Elect Richard Blumenthal who repeatedly falsely claimed to have served in Vietnam. We’re gonna entrust this dishonorable liar with the future of our Country?
• The Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialist Barack H Obama is still the President
BEST
• Nancy Pelosi done got her happy ass fired. “Ding dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!”
• The GOP won control of the House
• Nancy Pelosi done got her happy ass fired. “Ding dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!”
• The GOP picked up at least 6 seats in the Senate
• Nancy Pelosi done got her happy ass fired. “Ding dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!”
• The GOP picked up a net gain of 10 Governorships
• Nancy Pelosi done got her happy ass fired. “Ding dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!”
• The GOP flipped 19 State Legislatures
• Nancy Pelosi done got her happy ass fired. “Ding dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!”
• Republican Mark Kirk won President Obama’s Illinois Senate seat. Talk about rubbing salt in the wound.
• Nancy Pelosi done got her happy ass fired. “Ding dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!”
• We the People took a big step in the right direction in the battle to rescue our Country from these radical “Yes We Can” Socialist fanatics.
• Nancy Pelosi done got her happy ass fired. “Ding dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead!”
Anyone under the illusion that Mr. Obama’s visit to the woodshed humbled or modified his extremist Marxist views is crazier than an outhouse rat. This man is an authentic; wild eyed; true believer; Marxist Revolutionary hell bent on fundamental transformative change and global domination.
This election should hopefully help us keep him in check for the next 2 years at which time we can fire his happy ass so he can go home and make an unsuccessful run for his old Senate seat against GOP Incumbent Mark Kirk. Transformative change we can all believe in.

Week 93: Mr. Obama Goes to the Woodshed
Johnny kneeled and measured his feet
For the idiot's hall of fame
Janey shined a tarnished heart
And told Cupid to take game
And I raised a toast to Peggy Lee
'cause there had to be more to this game
I grabbed my hat, picked up my shoes
Collected everything I could use
And I made my way out alive with the Woodshed Blues
I grabbed my hat, picked up my shoes
Collected everything I could use
And I made my way out alive with the Woodshed Blues
Steve Wynn, The Woodshed Blues
Our “Marxist/Socialist, Promoter of Oppressive/Intrusive Government, Deficit Exploder, Record Debt Accumulator, Reckless Spender of Other People’s Money-in-Chief “done got taken to the woodshed for a beating of a life time this week. A truly “Come to Mohammad“ meeting with the American people who in no uncertain terms just told our 44th President what for along with his Democrat Congressional comrades for their corrupt, incompetent, and elitist governing for the last 93 weeks.
Just as happy as if they had good sense the Obama Regime has unabashedly pursued a radical; extremist; left wing; progressive; secular; ultra-liberal; freedom stifling; liberty smothering; victim promoting; Marxist agenda that would make the likes of Stalin, Castro, Mao, and Michael “ Chocolate Covered Cream Filled“ Moore proud. Ain’t no never mind about it the now historic 2010 mid-term elections were a referendum on Obama/Pelosi/Reid’s Socialist vision for America and their Marxist dreams of grandeur.
To put this monumental Democrat political disaster in context and perspective, a loss of 65 plus House seats and at least 6 in the Senate, is the third worst whooping ever delivered by a sitting President’s opposition party since 1900. A review of previous big swing mid-term elections tells the tale:
• Over the past fifty years there have been 12 midterm elections. 5 of them resulted in large losses of at least 20 seats by the President’s party.
• 1994-52 seats; 1974-49 seats; 1966-47 seats; 2006-30 seats; 1982-26 seats
• Another five elections resulted either in small losses or gains by the president’s party
• It has been noted countless times that the President's party usually loses seats in Congress during midterm elections. Since 1900, the President's party has lost an average of 29 House seats and 3.4 Senate seats

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 92: Winning Friends and Influencing People
I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass
I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast
Never meant to last, never meant to last
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks
I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks
But I got stop wishin', got to go fishin'
Down to rock bottom again
Just a few friends, just a few friends
“A Pirate Looks at Forty”, Jimmy Buffett
There sure enough seems to be something about our “Campaigner and Political Hack-in-Chief’s” personality and shall we say character flaws that irritate, annoy and anger a lot of folks all across the political spectrum. Barack Husain Obama just has an a knack for bringing out the worst in people and evoking angry responses from politicians and Government officials historically unprecedented in this Country’s public discourse.
To our knowledge our “Provocateur-in-Chief” is the only US President that so angered a member of Congress during an address to a joint session of both Chambers he shouted out “You Lie” in response to a lie Mr. Obama proclaimed about illegal immigrants during his speech. Republican Congressman Joe Wilson from the great state of South Carolina, the guilty presidential heckler, was embarrassed, contrite, apologetic and genuinely befuddled about his egregious breach of Congressional decorum.
During a State of the Union Address our “BFF-in-Chief” openly and without shame told another whopper about a recent Supreme Court decision. The remark so enraged Justice Alito he mouthed the words “not true, not true” which was caught on camera and broadcast around the world. The good judge has subsequently announced he won’t be attending future State of the Union speeches because of the hyper partisan atmosphere surrounding the event.
Just this week a fellow Democrat, Rhode Island governor Frank Capri, told President Barack Obama to " shove it " after learning Obama would not endorse him. A most telling and illuminating remark from a senior member of the Democratic faithful.
So what exactly is it about Mr. Barack H. Obama that elicits such a hostile response from folks that typically conduct themselves in a professional and measured fashion. Truth be told it ain’t that big of a mystery:
• He’s a Socialist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Marxist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Marxist/Socialist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Bolshevik that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Secular Progressive that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Muslim apologist that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a terrorist appeaser that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a Yankee lawyer that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s married to a Yankee lawyer that lies like a cheap rug
• He’s a racist; promoter of class warfare; pathological narcissist; hypocrite; blame America first; girly man that lies like a cheap rug
Considering this partial list of the President’s character flaws it’s certainly no surprise that most Democrats running for office in next week’s midterm elections are running like a scalded dog as fast and furious as they can away from the failed Obama/Pelosi/Reid agenda. Those few brave souls that aren’t concerned about the President annoying the hell out of their constituents have had the “Great Orator of Empty Rhetoric” out stumping on the campaign trail.
Following are several examples of his stale, historical revisionist, blame anyone but me, dishonest, infuriating, aggravating and just downright obnoxious standard remarks:
• “But we're not going to be able to get to where we need to go unless we understand how in fact we got here. We spent nearly 10 years on an economic agenda that was pretty straightforward: You cut taxes for the wealthiest among us, folks who didn't need tax cuts and weren't even asking for them; you cut rules for special interests; and you cut working folks loose so they've got to fend for themselves.
That was the philosophy of the last administration and that was the philosophy of their friends in Congress. And basically what they said is, if you can't find a job, tough luck -- you're on your own. If you don't have health insurance, too bad, tough luck -- you're on your own. If you're a young person who's trying to get to college, tough luck -- you're on your own.
Now, if you're a Wall Street bank or an insurance company or an oil company like BP, then you can write your own rules. And we know how this turned out"
A classic example of historical revisionism.
• “Think about it. Think about it. This is not a situation in which the Republicans -- after everything that they did to take record surpluses into record deficits, after all the failed policies that resulted ultimately in the worst recession since the 1930s, it's not as if they went back and they said, you know what, let's reflect on what we did wrong. (Laughter.) You know, obviously, there were some problems there, let's see if we've got a different set of theories about how we should approach the economy, and how we should look after the middle class.
They have not come up with a single, solitary idea that is any different from the policies of George W. Bush, the policies that they had in place for eight years before we had a crisis. (Applause.) What they are betting on is amnesia. (Laughter.) They are betting that you don't remember that they were in charge all this time. (Applause.) I think Pat may have mentioned to you, they're trying to get you to forget that they drove the car into the ditch. (Laughter.)
And after we've pushed it out, now they're saying, "Give us the keys back." (Laughter.) But we don't -- we haven't forgotten, because we've got mud on our shoes, our back is sore from pushing that car out of the ditch. I mean, if they want to get in the back seat, that's okay. But we're not going to put them behind the wheel.”
More lies, condescending, smart ass, sophomoric remarks. Truth be told we had a record number of months of economic expansion; unemployment averaged under 5% , and with tax breaks for everybody revenues to Federal coffers increased by over one trillion dollars under W. We’d also expect something a tad more cerebral from the Harvard Yard crowd than the car and ditch metaphor.
Lately we’ve been told their Socialist agenda isn’t popular because it’s just too hard to explain. In other words We the People are a bunch of ignorant yahoos that couldn’t possibly grasp the brilliance of these programs.
The arrogance, elitism, and disdain the Democrats and especially their leadership has shown for all of us poor dumb pilgrims that pay all the bills around here has definitely not won these boneheads any new friends or had a positive influence on any of our happy asses.
Midterm elections are next week. We encourage each and every one of you to vote early, often, and conservative.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 91: Chinese Calculus
Looking back on my past, sometimes has been a pretty strange ride
And I find it gets harder with time, to seperate the facts from the lies
Two Jerry Jeff's are in this world, Both using one ID
The other guy ain't got an idea, How hard being me can be
Well if he thinks it's gonna be easy, Think that he oughta think twice
With a high expectation and my reputation,
Man he's leading a dangerous life
“The OtherJerry Jeff Walker”, Jerry Jeff Walker
Ain’t no never mind bout it some things in life are just hard. Quantum physics; word problems – “if a train is heading north at 200 mph when will it crash head on into another train…”; running a marathon, scaling the summit at Mt. Everest; finding a cab driver in New York City that speaks English; scoring infield passes to a Monster Truck Rally and Chinese calculus are a few activities that come to mind.
According to Mr. “Foot in Mouth Dumber Than a Bag of Hammers” Vice President Uncle Joe Biden when it comes to their strategy for the upcoming election, “Democrats aren’t running on the administration’s accomplishments like health-care and financial-regulatory overhaul and the stimulus because it’s just too hard to explain”. The arrogance and elitism of this Administration is truly a sight to behold.
What exactly is Uncle Joe getting at when he claims “… it’s just too hard to explain”?
1. Actually, although certainly not his intent, Uncle Joe and his fellow liberal comrades the likes of white house Press Secretary and Senior Political Hack Robert Gibbs; Madame Speaker of The House Nancy “Did That Moronic Head Case Really Say That “Pelosi; Harry “Fixen to Be X Senator and Majority Leader” Reid; and Barbara “Don’t Call Me Mam General, Call Me Silly Winch, I’ve Earned It” Boxer are all at least one can short of a six-pack and too dim-witted to explain the legislation they conjured up and authored.
2. We the People are a bunch of ignorant yahoos who don’t have clue what’s good for us and should be grateful we have Uncle Sammy looking out for our best interest.
3. The bills in question are intentionally long, complex, and ambiguous to divert attention from their hidden agenda – Higher taxes; more government control; and a conversion to a Socialist Nanny state.
Obviously our Elitist-in-Chief and his Bolshevik brethren will never fess up and publically affirm their agreement with these claims even though all three are righter than rain.
• Uncle Joe and many of his fellow Democrat boneheads really are too dense and don’t have the mental capacity to comprehend let alone explain this legislation.
• The Administration has consistently expressed their disdain and low opinion for all of us tax payers starting with candidate Obama’s comments about clinging to our guns, God, and Bibles during the campaign.
• Veep Biden and afore mentioned company may be intellectually challenged but the President and several of his “Secret Shadow Government” of Czars know exactly what they are doing. Misguided Marxist/Socialist revolutionaries, but certainly not stupid, they have intestinally authored confusing, misleading and seemingly incomprehensible legislation that promotes their hidden agenda of creating a Communist Utopia right here in the good ole USA.
Only problem with the Administration’s “ Too hard to explain / We’re a bunch of ignorant yahoos / Write um up well beyond your typical college grad’s comprehension” strategy is that most of us poor dumb pilgrims who do all the work in this Country and foot the bill for all this insanity don’t need an explanation from Uncle Joe or any of his left wing slow coach compadres.
Fact is, we sure enough not only get it, the more we’ve learned about the Socialist philosophy, intellectually dishonest intent and almost criminal process employed to get this legislation railroaded through Congress the more PO’d we’ve become. We’re also abundantly aware of their nefarious hidden agenda and are all over this little charade like white on rice.
Following is a brief summary of the three pieces of legislation mentioned above by Uncle Joe that’s just “too hard to explain” to all of us ignorant, annoying, politically aware constituents:
Healthcare/Obamacare/Socialized Medicine
• If ultimately implemented the destruction of the world’s best healthcare system
• Cost will rise dramatically
• Quality of care will dramatically decrease
• Rationing will become SOP
• Abortions will be Federally funded
• Most folks will be forced to change docs
• End of life decisions will be dictated by pointy headed government political hacks
• The ultimate goal is to put all the private sector parties out of business and end up with Socialized medicine/Universal Care
Financial-Regulatory Overhaul:
• Over burdens businesses with oppressive and unnecessary regulations.
• Adds too much cost and compromises US Companies competitive position
• Stifles growth
• Kills jobs
• Perpetuates uncertainty
• Discourages productive risk taking
• The ultimate objective is to nationalize the entire financial services industry, redistribute all the wealth and start referring to each other as comrade at all public and private occasions
The One Trillion Dollar Stimulus:
• As the President has recently come clean on provided funding on not even one shovel ready project since such projects only exist in a liberal’s delusionary Communist compromised imagination
• The only jobs created were mostly public sector, temporary, Union and other political payoffs
• Saw unemployment hit ten percent where it still remains after we were assured it would stay south of eight percent if the Stimulus package was approved
• Has added at least another trillion dollars to the National debt without any tangible ROI
• Another Socialist initiative including a massive redistribution of wealth from all of us productive wealth generating pilgrims to Obama’s victim classes
It really ain’t hard at all to explain or comprehend the Obama Administration’s three signature legislative achievments that most Democrat candidates are running fast and furious from like a one eyed scalded dog. In the grand scheme of things they are all another component of his ultimate plan to transform the world’s most productive and successful capitalist economy into just another third world Socialist regime.
Compared to the extreme difficulty of watching the Braves lose again in the first round of post season play; enduring Auburn’s undefeated season; and learning Chinese calculus explaining and understanding Obama’s legislative agenda is a piece of proverbial baklava.

• Veep Biden and afore mentioned company may be intellectually challenged but the President and several of his “Secret Shadow Government” of Czars know exactly what they are doing. Misguided Marxist/Socialist revolutionaries, but certainly not stupid, they have intestinally authored confusing, misleading and seemingly incomprehensible legislation that promotes their hidden agenda of creating a Communist Utopia right here in the good ole USA.
Only problem with the Administration’s “ Too hard to explain / We’re a bunch of ignorant yahoos / Write um up well beyond your typical college grad’s comprehension” strategy is that most of us poor dumb pilgrims who do all the work in this Country and foot the bill for all this insanity don’t need an explanation from Uncle Joe or any of his left wing slow coach compadres.
Fact is, we sure enough not only get it, the more we’ve learned about the Socialist philosophy, intellectually dishonest intent and almost criminal process employed to get this legislation railroaded through Congress the more PO’d we’ve become. We’re also abundantly aware of their nefarious hidden agenda and are all over this little charade like white on rice.
Following is a brief summary of the three pieces of legislation mentioned above by Uncle Joe that’s just “too hard to explain” to all of us ignorant, annoying, politically aware constituents:
Healthcare/Obamacare/Socialized Medicine
• If ultimately implemented the destruction of the world’s best healthcare system
• Cost will rise dramatically
• Quality of care will dramatically decrease
• Rationing will become SOP
• Abortions will be Federally funded
• Most folks will be forced to change docs
• End of life decisions will be dictated by pointy headed government political hacks
• The ultimate goal is to put all the private sector parties out of business and end up with Socialized medicine/Universal Care
Financial-Regulatory Overhaul:
• Over burdens businesses with oppressive and unnecessary regulations.
• Adds too much cost and compromises US Companies competitive position
• Stifles growth
• Kills jobs
• Perpetuates uncertainty
• Discourages productive risk taking
• The ultimate objective is to nationalize the entire financial services industry, redistribute all the wealth and start referring to each other as comrade at all public and private occasions
The One Trillion Dollar Stimulus:
• As the President has recently come clean on provided funding on not even one shovel ready project since such projects only exist in a liberal’s delusionary Communist compromised imagination
• The only jobs created were mostly public sector, temporary, Union and other political payoffs
• Saw unemployment hit ten percent where it still remains after we were assured it would stay south of eight percent if the Stimulus package was approved
• Has added at least another trillion dollars to the National debt without any tangible ROI
• Another Socialist initiative including a massive redistribution of wealth from all of us productive wealth generating pilgrims to Obama’s victim classes
It really ain’t hard at all to explain or comprehend the Obama Administration’s three signature legislative achievments that most Democrat candidates are running fast and furious from like a one eyed scalded dog. In the grand scheme of things they are all another component of his ultimate plan to transform the world’s most productive and successful capitalist economy into just another third world Socialist regime.
Compared to the extreme difficulty of watching the Braves lose again in the first round of post season play; enduring Auburn’s undefeated season; and learning Chinese calculus explaining and understanding Obama’s legislative agenda is a piece of proverbial baklava.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Week 90: Our Anything But Commander-in-Chief
“I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.”
George Washington
Our founding fathers were downright particular and exceedingly deliberate when considering options for the title to bestow upon the individual elected to lead our new government. For obvious reasons they wanted to avoid any titles that smacked of royalty or a monarchy which contradicted their tenants of a new form of government “for, by and of the people”.
After ruling out it's his ship now, his command, he's in charge, the boss, the head man, top dog, big cheese, head honcho, number one, numerous uno and you the man they settled on the title of President. They also referred to the position as Chief Executive and Commander-in-Chief.
When contemplating the attributes and characteristics of our current occupant of the White House addressing him as President is almost tolerable but Chief Executive and Commander-in-Chief can really put a hitch in the ole get along. Especially when you consider the man assumed office with absolutely no executive experience or aptitude for the job and the words Commander and Obama should never collide in the same sentence.
Over the course of the last ninety weeks we have used over 200 variations of the Commander-in-Chief title which in our humble opinion more accurately describe President Obama’s role and function. To help mark ninety weeks of the arrogance, chaos and insanity imposed upon us by the “ Yes We Can/Change/Believe” gang a review of some of the most relevant of these titles might serve as a good reminder of this Administration’s incompetence, hidden agenda and true intentions:

With the midterm elections bearing down on our Campaigner-in-Chief and his Congressional comrades like a tornado on a trailer park the President is out on the trail earning new titles that further demean him and the office he took an oath to uphold. About to take a beating usually reserved for a redheaded stepchild the Dems have lashed out in desperation trying to divert attentiom from their failed economic policies and Marxist/Socialist agenda.
Our Political Hack, Maker of False and Unfounded Accusations, Say Anything the Truth be Damned-in-Chief is stooping to new lows trying to salvage something from the pending political calamity they are about to experience. Following President Washington’s example to aspire for the title “Character of an Honest Man” or something similar is as foreign of a concept to Mr Obama as capitalism, honor, integrity, American exceptionalism and the true meaning of the title Commander-in-Chief.

Thoughts of Obama From Bama
Weeks 89: The Exaggerated Presidency
“There are some people so addicted to exaggeration that they can't tell the truth without lying.”
Josh Billings, American Humorist
Rahm Emanuel, the profane hyper partisan ultra liberal Chief of Staff to our 44th President, turned in his resignation this week. The White House hatchet man plans to strong arm; intimidate; extort; bribe; and swindle his way into the epitome of dream jobs for a corrupt Illlinois politician, Mayor of Chicago.
Following the lead of three fellow left wing head cases and senior staffers, Peter Orszag, head of the Office of Management and Budget; Christina Romer, Chairwoman of Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers; and Larry Summers, the Director of the White House National Economic Council; Rahm “The Enforcer” Emanuel is the fourth close advisor to the President to jump ship right smack dab in the middle of the Obama Administrtion’s train wreck of a first term.
During one of our “Great Orator of Empty Rhetoric-In-Chief’s” multiple daily TV appearances this week he made the official announcement of Emanuel’s resignation and a thinly veiled endorsement of his Mayorial candidacy. The President then made several obligatory farewell remarks and turned the microphone over to his departing trusted advisor and political attack dog.
Uncharacteristically the famously caustic, abrasive and imposing Emanuel got extremely emotional and literally cried like a little girl when addressing the press. He went on to thank the President profusely and then made some of the most remarkable, historically incorrect, dishonest, and incredible exaggrerations ever uttered in the White House:
1. He congratulated the President for averting "the second great depression".
2. He then declared our mild mannered; intellectually eliite; academic egg head; policy wonk; pacifist; war protesting flower child of the sixties wannabe; advocate of a bend over, grab his ankles, thank you sir may I have another foreign policy was "the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced”.
After we all pick ourselves up off the floor, wipe the tears from our eyes, and stop laughing are collective happy asses off one more look at his second remark is certainly called for:
"…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced”.
For an Administration that has told more lies; created more fantastical crisis; deceived millions on multiple occasions; implemented a stealth and insedious propaganda campaign promoting their Marxist/Socialist agenda; arrogantly disregarded the will of the people the comment "…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced” just might be their most absurd, outrageous and gross exaggeration to date. It’s truly amazing this gang hasn’t all died from exhaustion from patting each other on their own backs.
As for his comment about averting the “next Great Deppresion” nothing more than silly, dillusional, arbitrary hyperbole not really worthy of further comment. However, Emanuel’s statement "…the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced” demands a response to protect the honor and integrity of the Office and former Commander-in-Chiefs.
So Rahm and Barack think they have had a tough time. Following are some the challenges they have confronted:
-• Recession brought on by housing bubble and irresponsible lenders. Measures taken by W, TARP, averted the potential of another Depression. Actions by Obama have prolonged and deepened the economic downturn. Most likely intentional to advance their hidden agenda.
• Iraq War – Won by W. True to form Obama/Biden tried to take credit but even their adoring media elite press corps found this claim adsurd.
• Healthcare – Fabricated crisis.
• Energy – Fabricated crisis
• Global Warming – An unproven theory and another fabricated crisis.
• Nuclear Iran – Real threat totally mishandled by the Administration
• Afghanastan – Indecision and set withdrawl date smacks of weakness and lack of resolve.
• Gulf oil spill – Totally inept response and gross incompetence from day one.
• Their three most difficult challenges are probably muzzling VEEP Uncle Joe Biden. Keeping Hillary “Queen of the Order of the Butt Ugly Pants Suit Clan” Clinton safe from enemy sniper fire and also keeping all the tax cheats in his Cabinet and on his staff one step ahead of the jailer
For comparison purposes following is a listing of Presidents who confronted real crisis and truly tough times in stark contrast to the blatant exaggeration; total disrespect; intellectual dishonesty; and arrogance of Emanuel’s remarks:
George Washington
• Governed a fragile new nation deeply in debt from the war; still greatly divided over poltical issues; and a rebellious Congress understandably hostile and mistrustfull of a Central Government.
• Fully aware of the historical significance and establishment of precedents his Presidency was responsible for.
• Maintaining peace while literally surrounded by the likesof the British Empire, French, Spanish, and Native Americans all hell bent on making their claim to the New World.
• Eating with wooden teeth. Corn-on-the –cobb and Chinese take out in particular were a real bitch.
Thomas Jefferson
• Dealt with most of the same issues Washington confronted.
• Defeated the Federalist Party, the strong centrlal government crowd, leading to their ultimate demise and influencing politics in this Country to this day.
• More than doubled the geographic size of our new nation with the Louisana Purchase which was adamantly opposed by the Brits, Spanish and Native Americans.
• Keeping his illegitament children resulting fom multiple liaisons with hisown slave girls a secret.
Andrew Jackson
• A notable crisis during Jackson's period of office was the "Nullification Crisis", or "secession crisis," of 1828 – 1832. South Carolina basically decided to succeed and Jackson was forced to tell them what for if they carried out their threat.
• Jackson’s wife Racheal died right before he took office. He blamed political enemies who had called her a tramp and harlett during the campaign.
• The Jackson Administration ‘removed” tens of thousands of Native Americans west of Mississippi with more than half dying along the way. Came to be known as Trail of Tears.
• An expert shot refraining from dueling during his term of office was quite a challenge
Abe Lincoln
• The man freed milions of slaves, preserved the Union, and led the Yankees to victory in the War for Southern Independence
• Author and orator of some of the most profound and inspirational words ever spoken with unparralleled credabilty, conviction, and respect. The polar opposite of the empty suit morally bankrupt socialist revolutionary currently occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
• His biggist challlenge might have been keepen the Mrs’ from breaking the bank decorating the White House.
FDR
• A misguided domestic Socialist but brilliant war time President that played a large role saving the world from Nazi Facsist tyranical world domination.
• Rallied an apprehensive US populace to arms to lead the world in a global conflict pitting good vs. evil
• Promoted and aggressively advocted American exceptionalism
• Biggest challenge – keeping control of his wheelchair and not running down GOP Congressional members like dogs in the street after getting sideways on a few too many dry martinis
Harry Truman
• Sure enough quite possibly confronted with toughest challenge/ decision of all his predacessors and successors. Certainly in the running for one of the toughest decisions of all time by a world leader. Truman’s decision to drop two atomic bombs on Japan unltimately killing over one million changed the geopolitical military landscape permamently.
Emanuel’s claim Obama faces tougher decisions than Truman and these other esteemed gentlemem insults the integrity of the Office of the Presidency and diminishes the credability of any real accomplishments achieved by this bunch of insecure yahoos as few and far between as they may be.
Finally, each and every President starting with Truman and ending with Papa Bush were all confronted with what most folks with half a brain would consider a tough problem - a little conflict known as the Cold War. Thanks to his mostly courages pervious Commander-in-Chiefs who fought the tough fight; made the tough decision; and stood resolute and tough in the path of great adversity Mr Obama doesn’t have to worry 24/7 about mass mutual destruction with the former USSR
"….the toughest leader any country could ask for, in the toughest times any president has ever faced.”
A statement so emblimatic of this Presidency – disrespectfull, decietful, factualyl challenged, insecure, dishonest, exaggerated, dillusionary. Just more of all that good ole change we all can believe in.
