Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 44: Thanksgiving - United Workers of the New World Great Communal Feast

“Pass the cornbread, Pass the meat, Good God, Let’s eat!"

On the last day of week 44 of our Historical Revisionist-in-Chief’s “transformational” Presidency the White House hosted the Indian Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, for a State visit. During remarks at a joint Press Conference following their high-level discussions, where PM Singh brow beat our Deficit Buster-in-Chief for irresponsible runaway spending and fell of his matt from laughing so hard when the subject of climate control came up, President Obama commented how appropriate it was for us Americans to break bread again this week in Thanksgiving with our Indian brothers.

An obvious misstatement, Press Secretary Robert “I know nothing, hear nothing, see nothing” Gibbs, rushed to the Great Communicator’s side frantically whispering in his ear Native American Indians, sir, not our South Asian ally; world’s 2cd largest democratic nation; cobras; tigers; “Slum Dog Millionaire”. Meanwhile the President’s 24/7 companion, his beloved tele-prompter, was about to blow a main circuit flashing in big red letters “Native American, Native American, Slum Dog, Slum Dog”.

Undeterred, our Community Organizer Pilgrim-in-Chief continued stating that it really don’t make no never mind if it was Native Americans or our new Asian friends because the whole Thanksgiving Pilgrim and Indian legend is nothing but one big fairytale anyway. According to our Pass the Pumpkin Pie-in-Chief the First Thanksgiving myth was fabricated by evil, greedy, criminal CEO’s at Butterball Turkey; Big Oil – “to Grandmother’s house we go”; Galo; and of course, W.

Not one to shy away from creating and perpetuating revisionist history, for example:

· 9/11 – President Obama and his NEA comrades, including Presidential soul mate Bill Ayers, are advocating any teaching about 9/11should omit any mention of Muslim, Islamic Jihadist being responsible for the attack.
· The belief that those who approved and implemented the use of the A bombs against Japan are war criminals. Our Nobel Peace Prize Winner-in-Chief along with all his pacifist comrades in Stockholm always conveniently seem to forget to mention the millions of both American and Japanese that were saved because we did use the bomb.
· The complete fabrication of candidate Obama – he has the experience; he’s not a liberal let alone a Socialist; a bipartisan consensus builder; hardly even knew Ayers, Wright, or Blago; Truly revisionist history at it’s very best, or worst, depending on your perspective.

Also experts at rebranding, repackaging and/or renaming an issue to achieve their propaganda objectives the Change Gang has flagrantly disregarded reality in their ongoing efforts to deceive and mislead the public. A few examples of these deceitful practices include:

· War on Terrorism – Overseas Contingency Plan. Domestic – Man Made Disaster. Don’t know about y’all, but the massacre at Fort Hood seemed one hell of a lot more like a cowardly Islamic Jihadist terrorist attack than any so called Man Made Disaster.
· Socialized Medicine – Health Reform; Healthcare Reform; Health Insurance Reform. The Yes We Can bunch needed a villain to divert attention from their true objective, Universal, Government controlled, single payer, Socialized Medicine, and the Health Insurance industry is the ideal scapegoat.
· Swine Flu- Really not sure why they changed the name to H1N1. Reckon the Administration was concerned the public might be frightened by the image of 1,000’s of marauding pigs raping and pillaging their way across the country.

Back to the Presidential Press Conference with Indian PM Singh, our Socialist-in-Chief elaborated further about the first Thanksgiving stating our national holiday that allegedly stems from the feast held in the autumn of 1621 by the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag Indians to celebrate the colony's first successful harvest is a total fabrication. The actual event, according to Mr. Obama, was a gathering of working class Pilgrims and Indians to organize the Country’s first labor union.

Led by an Indian Community Organizer, Hit in Head by One too Many Acorns, the group vowed to stop the exploitation of the working class and to fight for higher wages; better working conditions; fewer public floggings; and a serious cutback on burnings at the stake. The President went on to say that in light of this historic revelation the Holiday once known as Thanksgiving would henceforth be called the:

“United Workers of the New World Great Communal Feast”

When asked by the press how he planned to celebrate the new holiday the President replied he hopes for a traditional gathering with family, friends, food, drink and plenty of time between courses for a smoke break. He also announced plans to continue a family tradition of kicking things off with a public reading of Marx’s Communist Manifesto, followed by a hysterical 30 minute hate America diatribe by Reverend Jeremiah Wright and wrapping the evening up by going around the table and everyone sharing what they’re most thankful for this year.

All of the dinner guest’s comments of thanks were submitted in advance and in writing for prior approval from the White House Propaganda Czar. Thoughts of Obama from Bama has obtained a confidential copy and we are pleased to include these remarks in this article:

· Vice President Uncle Joe Biden – Most thankful for California Senator Barbara Boxer. The only politician in America that makes more absolutely absurd; silly; ludicrous; inexplicable; and irrational comments than ole Joe hisself.
· Secretary of State Hillary Clinton - Most thankful for her success in avoiding enemy sniper fire as she travels the globe as our chief diplomat. She is also most grateful for her seemingly endless supply of butt ugly pants suits.
· Former President Bill Clinton – Most thankful the wife is our chief diplomat and is gone 80% traveling the globe dodging enemy sniper fire.
· White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel – Most thankful the next Presidential election isn’t until 2012. Believes there is still time to create a crisis of biblical proportions, blame W, and salvage the unmitigated devastation of the Obama Presidency.
· Secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner – Most thankful the President kept him from going to prison for tax evasion.
· Barney “Freddie in the Fannie Mac” Frank – Most thankful this shindig will be over in time for him to get home for his annual “Come as Your Favorite Gay Nekkid Pilgrim Party”.
· Presidential Czars, exact number of these individuals is a State secret – Most thankful they got a pass on the Senate confirmation process where they all would have surly been exposed for the tax cheats; terrorist sympathizers; eco-nazis; boneheaded Marxist/Socialist they truly are.
· First Lady Michelle Obama – Most thankful for the opportunity to empathize with all the common folk, the working class people, when she’s not gallivanting about in Air Force One to Martha’s Vineyard or on a date with Barack in New York City.
· President Barack Husain Obama – Most thankful for an adoring and hyper partisan press who, at least up till now, refuses to out him for his ultra liberal; leftwing; secular progressive; terrorist appeasing; Marxist/Socialist; chain smoking beliefs and actions.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama wishes everyone a joyous and safe Thanksgiving. As for the “United Workers of the New World Great Communal Feast”, knock yourself out Mr. President. We certainly hope you and Hit in Head by One too Many Acorns have a lovely holiday weekend.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 43: United States vs. Khalid Sheikh Mohammad; Waleed bin Attash; Ramzi Binalshibh; Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi; Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali; George W Bush; Richard B Cheney; The Entire Bush Administration; Joint Chiefs of Staff; CIA; Laura, Jenna, Barbara; and Barney and Spot the former First Pooches

“We don't give our criminals much punishment, but we sure give 'em plenty of publicity.” Will Rogers

On Friday of the 43rd week of our 44th President’s Administration Senior Obama political hack and US Attorney General, Eric Holder, made a remarkable but predictable announcement on behalf of our Bower to Foreign Monarchs-in-Chief. To the utter delight of the ACLU; the blame America first crowd; Usama Bin Laden; the liberal media elite; and boneheaded so called progressives in Congress and absolute outrage of 90% plus of the family members of 9/11 victims; New York City first responders; 2/3rds of We the People; and any fellow citizen with half a brain and a lick of sense our Nation’s AG proclaimed openly and without shame that the 5 principal conspirators responsible for the cowardly terrorist attacks on 9/11 would be tried as common criminals in a US Federal Courthouse in downtown Manhattan.

Holding court for these 5 self proclaimed enemy combatants Islamic Jihadist, so called Holy Warriors, in our civil Criminal Justice system grants these murderous barbarians the same rights and protections usually reserved for us taxpayers. Giving fanatic Islamic religious zealots who committed the most deadly act of war on American soil since Pearl Harbor the same legal standing as some lowlife who knocked off the corner liquor store or a no count white trash yahoo that stole his neighbors goat is not only stupid but absolutely absurd.

We can say a lot of things about the “Yes we can break the national bank, keep our real agenda hidden, and keep the folks in the dark as long as we damn well please” gang including they’re:

1. Arrogant – They know best, just ask them
2. Elitist – As the day is long
3. Liars- Only when their lips are moving
4. Political hacks – No doubt about it
5. Secular progressives – As God as our witness
6. Liberal leftwing extremist – Got that right
7. Endless campaigners – 2,4,6,8, We want a Socialist Nanny State
8. Socialist – Unabashed true believers
9. Communist – If not yet listing badly in that direction
10. Stupid – Not a chance, and that’s what makes this bunch so dangerous and this seemingly boneheaded decision so disconcerting.

One would think bringing these cowardly fanatics to justice would be the President’s and AG Holder’s first priority. Sadly, SOP for this group is to divert and deceive, while they push a hidden agenda that usually can’t pass the “the Sunshine Test” when exposed to the public.

AG/Political hack Holder’s justification for the decision to hold these trials in Federal Court as opposed to a Military Commission includes his opinion that the 9/11 attack was both a crime and an act of war. Secondly, he stated without any hint of a smile, the chances for a successful prosecution/conviction are much greater in Federal Court.

With all due respect to Senior Political hack Holder – that dog just won’t hunt; we may have been born at night, but it wasn’t last night; and that’s the biggest load of camel dung we’ve heard since the President’s last speech on Socialized Medicine.

As for 9/11 being a crime a quick review of the history of American jurist prudence reveals not even one previous offense that could be considered comparable in magnitude, loss of life, destruction, or financial devastation. Serial killers and mass murderers Gary Ridgway; The Green River Killer, Albert Fish; and Coral Eugene Watts don’t even come within shouting distance. All 3 thought to have killed around 100 folks are a far cry from the 3,000 massacred on 9/11.

The 5 defendants terrorist credentials and participation in a paramilitary groups the likes of al Qaeda don’t exactly seem to have a lot in common with the carjackers, drug dealers and gang bangers currently clogging up our criminal justice system either. Following is a brief description of their charges and terrorist activities as compiled by Fox News:

· Khalid Sheikh Mohammad admitted to interrogators that he thought up the attacks -- he allegedly proposed the concept to Usama bin Laden as early as 1996, obtained funding for the attacks from bin Laden, oversaw the operation and trained the hijackers in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
· Bin Attash, a Yemeni, allegedly ran an Al Qaeda training camp in Logar, Afghanistan, where two of the 19 hijackers were trained. Bin Attash is believed to have been bin Laden's bodyguard. Authorities say bin Laden selected him as a hijacker, but he was prevented from participating when he was briefly detained in Yemen in early 2001.
· Binalshibh, a Yemeni, allegedly helped find flight schools for the hijackers, helped them enter the United States and assisted with financing the operation. He allegedly was selected to be a hijacker and made a "martyr video" in preparation for the operation, but was unable to get a U.S. visa. He also is believed to be a lead operative for a foiled plot to crash aircraft into London's Heathrow Airport.
· Ali allegedly helped nine of the hijackers travel to the United States and sent them $120,000 for expenses and flight training. He is believed to have served as a key lieutenant to Mohammed in Pakistan. He was born in Pakistan and raised in Kuwait.
· Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi, a Saudi, allegedly helped the hijackers with money, western clothing, traveler's checks and credit cards. Al-Hawsawi testified in the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui, saying he had seen Moussaoui at an al-Qaida guesthouse in Kandahar, Afghanistan, in early 2001, but was never introduced to him or conducted operations with him

Political hack Holder’s ludicrous claim his chances for a conviction are almost guaranteed in Federal Court also demands further scrutiny. Actually, 2 letters sums up the risk of a civil trial – can anybody say OJ!!!

All it takes is 1 Islamic Jihadist sympathizer slipping through the jury selection process, a cranky activist judge having a bad year or some deft legal maneuvering by a smart ass ACLU lawyer resulting in Omar walking because of an obscure technicality. An acquittal for any of these madmen probably doesn’t mean they’ll walk, as we do have other legal means to keep Akbar and his merry band of rug makers in custody, but it will hand the enemy a victory that could have been easily averted with some badly needed Presidential leadership.

Only problem, our Terrorist Appeaser-in-Chief and his senior Political hack AG Holder, don’t give a happy by damn about KSM and his 4 terrorist cohorts. Their one and only purpose for arranging this show trial in the media capital of the world is to embarrass W and hopefully trump up some criminal charges against a few Bushys for future prosecution.

This entire charade is nothing more than another pathetic attempt by the Obama White House to criminalize the policies of the W Administration. A tactic frequently employed by corrupt Democrat Chicago politicians and third world banana republic Despots.

President Obama’s decision to conduct trials in Federal Court in New York for the 5 Islamic Jihadist enemy combatants 9/ 11 conspirators is unforgivable. His willingness to place politics ahead of national security; expose millions of New Yorkers to increased risk of terrorist attacks; and granting cowardly Muslim terrorist the same legal standing as US citizens is unprecedented and in direct conflict with the Oath of Office he swore to uphold 43 short weeks ago.

Mr. President, it’s high time for you to get over your bad case of the W Paranoid Schizophrenia; focus your full and undivided attention on prosecuting our global war on terrorism; stop the dithering over the Afghanistan policy; and put an immediate halt to granting Islamic Jihadist cowards the same legal standing as United States citizens.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 42: "Rolling Down the Track Faster Than a Runaway Train Towards Socialism”

“I hear the train a comin'It's rolling round the bendAnd I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when,I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' onBut that train keeps a rollin' on down to San Antone..When I was just a baby my mama told me. Son,Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns.But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him dieWhen I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry” Johnny Cash

First and foremost Thoughts of Obama from Bama extends our condolences, thoughts and prayers to the families and friends of those killed by a cowardly Islamic Jihadist terrorist last Thursday at Fort Hood, Texas. We also send our best wishes for a speedy recovery to all the wounded. Their service and sacrifice are greatly appreciated.

Freedom and liberty took a gut shot this week as the US House of Representatives approved their Socialized Medicine Reform Bill Saturday night. Not a mortal wound but certainly a crippling blow to capitalism; free enterprise; our civil liberties; and our Democratic way of life.

Voting along straight Party lines the final tally was Socialist – 220; Republicans – 215. One deaf, dumb, and blind Republican from Louisiana voted with the Socialist. Must be a LSU grad (Hey Tigers, we just beat the hell out of you. Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer…). The train wreck of the
Obama Administration and their comrades in Congress are definitely one step closer to realizing their Utopian Marxist dreams of a Socialist America and a single payer Government run Healthcare System.

Many Americans still can’t accept the fact that the current occupant of the Oval Office is a genuine Socialist. The sad truth is that even a cursory review of his writings, speeches and drug fogged school years reveals young Barack Husain Obama jumped on the Socialist train a long time ago.

Records are a tad sketchy but Thoughts of Obama from Bama has it on good authority that our future Socialist-in-Chief was indoctrinated at a very young age in not only Marxist/Socialist doctrine but also Islam. Growing up in Hawaii and Kenya our budding young Socialist was an active member of the following extremist organizations:

· Hawaiian Socialist Youth League
· Kenyan Socialist Youth League
· Future Marxist of America
· Che Guevara Fan Club
· Barbara Streisand Socialist Youth Choir
· Marx/Lenin World Domination Society
· Big Brother and Big Sister are Watching You Association
· Young Democrats
· Castro’s Socialist Cigar Officiando Club
· Children of the Chinese Revolution
· International Union of Socialist Youth
· Socialist Youth Front
· Comrades International
· Future Sheet Head Adorner’s of America Society

Those still not convinced of our Marxist/Leninist-in-Chief’s Socialist pedigree need look no further than the views expressed in his own words in two books, Dreams of My Father and The Audacity of Hope, both of which hit number 1on the Havana Times Best Sellers List and several public comments he has repeatedly made over the years. Following are a few examples:

· About his drug sub-culture days spent at Occidental College Obama wrote “There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs,” he further wrote. “It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.” He concluded: “To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists.”
· “It's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." Definetly paraphrasing Karl Marx, “Religion is the Opiate of the People” while addressing a crowd of liberal elite boneheads in San Francisco.
· “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.” Certainly comforting to hear from our Commander-in-Chief who is suppose to be conducting 2 wars against Islamic terrorist in Iraq and Afghanistan.
· Revealing his true position on Socialized Medicine "I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care plan."
· “It's not that I want to punish your success. I just want to make sure that everybody who is behind you, that they've got a chance for success too. My attitude is that if the economy's good for folks from the bottom up, it's gonna be good for everybody. I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody.” Stating his advocacy of the classic Socialist economic tenant, the Redistribution of Wealth, to Joe the Plumber.
· “Their ain’t a dimes worth of difference between a Democrat and a Socialist” · “Socialism then; Socialism now; Socialism forever”
· “Keep Socialism alive, Keep Socialism alive, Great God Almighty, Keep Socialism alive”

Granted the last three might be a bit of a yarn but Thoughts of Obama from Bama is confidant if he didn’t actually say it he was damn sure thinking it.
In addition to Socialized Medicine a review of the Socialist Party of America’s Political Platform reveals an extremely troubling commonality with the President’s; Comrades Pelosi and Reid’s; and the Democrat Party’s policy initiatives. Major Democrat supported Socialist initiatives headed straight at us like a runaway locomotive include:

· The USA Socialist Party Platform: Advocates the "right" of adequate housing for everyone – Community Organizer Obama trained ACORN workers to secure mortgages for unqualified people in sufficient numbers and with the intent to collapse the housing and financial industries.
· The USA Socialist Party Platform: Believes in open borders and six-months residency as the only requirement for U.S. citizenship - Obama marched with illegal aliens in Chicago in -support of "comprehensive" immigration reform. Pelosi encourages criminal illegal aliens to’ ignore our laws and bilk the system. A felony deserving of criminal prosecution.
· The USA Socialist Party Platform: Demands a "livable guaranteed annual income”.Obama trained ACORN members to conduct seminars on the subject in cities around the country.
· The USA Socialist Party Platform: Calls for a "steeply graduated" Progressive tax policy - Obama has promised to increase the tax burden on the” rich”. Although defining exactly who is rich isn’t based on personal income but instead Government revenue requirements.
· The USA Socialist Party Platform: Wants unions to be reorganized without a secret ballot - Obama supports Card check and believes that labor unions should be allowed to organize without a secret ballot
· The USA Socialist Party Platform: Demands we tuck and run from Iraq like a scalded dog – Obama won’t acknowledge victory and dishonors the fallen and all that have sacrificed so much

Norman Mattoon Thomas was a leading American socialist, pacifist, and six-time Presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America in the 1930’s and 1940’s. Following are his views of America’s Socialist transformation:

· "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism," they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened! "He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democrat Party has adopted our platform."

This Socialist train roaring down the track sure as hell ain’t bound for glory. Our Socialist Revolutionary in-Chief’s actual destination is cradle to grave Big Government control, oppression, and intrusion in every aspect of our lives. The Socialist transformation of our great nation has already secured a strong toehold and is ever so stealthy establishing a tyrannical death grip on our God given liberties and freedoms.

High time we jumped this train, change tracks and ran the President and his Congressional Comrades out of office on the nearest rail.

A Final Thought.

The first Islamic terrorist attack on American soil since 9/11 occurred last Thursday during week 42 of the Obama Presidency. Nidal Malik Hasan; an Officer in the US Army; Man of Medicine; A convert to Islam; An obviously deranged, psychotic, pathological killer (Characteristics shared by most Islamic terrorist); declared a Jihad against his own Country, fellow soldiers, and from his perspective the Great Satan; Killing 13 and wounding 29 Americans at Fort Hood in central Texas; A horrific and cowardly act murdering and maiming dozens in the name of Allah; A vicious and coldblooded act of war by an Islamic Jihadist terrorist.

Our Commander-in-Chief’s response to this terrorist attack screams out for analysis and scrutiny:

1. The President’s first public comments took place at a scheduled Press Conference following a Seminar at The Interiors Department. His opening remarks were troubling and bizarre.

Before mentioning the terrorist attack (Our words, not his) he rambled on for 2- 3 minutes just standing behind that podium smiling and waving like he had good sense. He seemed more than content to praise the success of the meeting and give shout outs to folks in the audience.

When he finally got around to the attack there was no mention of a terrorist; the first terrorist attack on the homeland since 9/11; or the Islamist Jihadist responsible.

He did extend his condolences and warned the rest of us not to jump to any conclusions. Translation – when we all find out the gunman is a Muslim with ties to al-Qaeda don’t automatically assume he’s an Islamic Jihadist terrorist – as Political Correctness is priority one in these types of sensitive situations.

2. The President delivered an eloquent and well written speech at the Memorial Service held a Fort Hood on Tuesday. He made warm and fitting tributes to the fallen. He also displayed what appeared to be true empathy for the family and friends of those gunned downed by this madman.

He again conspicuously failed to mention this was a terrorist attack; The first terrorist attack on the homeland since 9/11; This was an act of war; We would hold those who inspired, supported, and carried out this act of war responsible.

Either Presidential Political Correctness run amuck or a much more insidious response from our Commander-in-Chief consistent with previous remarks from his book Dreams of My Father can explain his truly bewildering reaction to the terrorist attack at Fort Hood.

“I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.” Barack H Obama

Not exactly the call to arms we were hoping to hear from our President as we continue our global war with Muslim extremist and Islamic Jihadist.

Week 41: “The Patients Really are Running the Asylum, Part 2”

"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 in the galaxy Fuitcakes on the earth Struttin' naked towards eternity We've been that way since birth Half-baked cookies in the oven Half-baked people on the bus There's a little bit of fruitcake left in everyone of us”

Jimmy Buffett, Fruitcakes

In last week’s Column, “Week 40: The Patients Really are Running the Asylum”, we talked about the madness of ramming Socialized Medicine down our throats especially when considering Einstein’s definition of crazy, “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. We also identified the 4 seriously disturbed individuals leading this effort and their absence of any healthcare experience what so ever but abundance of Socialist credentials – Our Commander-in-Chief, Barack “Insane” Obama; White House Chief of Staff, Rahm “The Unhinged Enforcer Sleeps With the Fishes” Emanuel; Speaker of the House, Nancy “The Nutcase” Pelosi; and Senate Majority Leader, Harry “Mr. Public Option Come Hell or High Water One Can Short of a Six Pack” Reid.

This week we will expose some of the other “half-baked fruitcakes” assisting these four run “The Asylum” better known as our Nation’s Capital.

First, a multiple choice question:

· 36 accused of spousal abuse
· 7 arrested for fraud
· 19 accused of writing bad checks
· 117 directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
· 3 have done time for assault
· 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
· 14 arrested on drug-related charges
· 8 arrested for shoplifting
· 84 arrested for drunk driving

The stats listed above represent the criminal activities of the members of what Organization?

A. NFL
B. NBA
C. Lindsay Lohan and her Fan Club
D. Rap Group Crime Mob
E. None of the above

So who is this group of abusive; deadbeat; drug crazed; kleptomaniac; drunkards? E – None of the above. As Mark Twain so astutely observed “There is no distinctly native American criminal class except the US Congress”. The 435 scoundrels responsible for spending/wasting trillions of our hard earned dollars and writing the laws that govern this great nation are seemingly heavily infiltrated by not only “Half-baked Fruitcakes” but also a fair to midland number of hardcore criminals.

And these Criminal Stats don’t even incluade the two most recent additions to the Senate, Illinois’ Roland “Pay for Play” Burris and the Honorable “Half-baked Fruitcakes” of “Half-baked Fruitcakes” Al “I’m Dumber Than a Bag of Rocks and Crazier Than a Run over Dog” Franken from the truly politically bewildering state of Minnesota. Fraud, drug charges and Impersonating a Sane and Lawful Individual Crime Stats will surely spike dramatically after adding these two model citizens to the ranks of Congress.

The President’s Government Takeover of Healthcare Team keeps trying the same thing, Socialized Medicine, which has failed miserably in Massachusetts; Tennessee; Canada; and Great Britain, expecting different results when imposed on the entire nation. A classic example of the psychotic reckoning Einstein defined as insanity.

Some of the obviously psychologically disturbed left wing extremist making up this team include the following half-baked fruitcakes:

· Nancy-Ann Min DeParle – White House Healthcare Czar: Tennessee Grad, strike 1; Lawyer, strike 2; Clinton Administration Alum, strike 3; Absolutely no operational Healthcare experience. Suffering from a bad case of the Do Nothing/No Nothing Government Bureaucrat Brain Freeze Syndrome
· Kathleen Sebelius - Secretary of Health and Human Services: Leading the H1N1 Vaccine Program. Has over sold and under delivered blaming others for her and this Administration’s incompetence (SOP). Inflicted with the Healthcare Czar Envy Syndrome.
· Chucky Schumer - U.S. Senator from the State of New York: Another lawyer totaling lacking any Healthcare experience. Third in line in Senate Democratic Leadership. Recently diagnosed with Compulsive Obsessive Disorder displaying symptoms including the inability to leave the Senate Chamber until he has told at least eight lies and blamed W for some manner of international calamity.
· Max Baucus - U.S. Senator from Montana. Current chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance and primary author of partisan Senate Healthcare Reform Bill: Rumored to be et up with a severe bout of Coulrophobia, an abnormal fear of clowns. We commend him for overcoming this crippling condition having to spend so much time with his Democratic comrades in the Senate.
· Barney “Freddie in the Fannie Mac” Frank – Massachusetts Congressman: Another pinheaded Harvard Law Grad. Only Healthcare experience the time spent in the hospital for his sex change operation. Said to be inflicted with multiple Psychological conditions far too many in number to list here.
· Henry A. Waxman – California Congressman: Chair Commerce and Energy Committee and oversight of Health Sub Committee. Stared in “Lord of the Rings” as the Mayor of the Shire requiring no makeup or costume to achieve the desired look of a Hobbit. Another career politician with no healthcare experience. Frequently displays psychotic paranoid tendencies, especially in the presence of Wizards, Elves and Orcs.
· Al Franken – Minnesota Senator: SNL cast member and writer. Bombed out as liberal radio talk show host. Author of “Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations”. Psychological disorders include Rush Limbaugh Power Envy Syndrome; Rush Limbaugh Money Envy Syndrome; Rush Limbaugh Popularity Envy Syndrome; and Rush Limbaugh Talent Envy Syndrome.

With every passing day the White House and Capitol Hill look and act more like a Home for the Criminally Insane and nothing at all like the world’s “Cradle of Democracy” occupied by wise and sage Statesmen and Patriots. Sadly, Washington DC has surpassed San Francisco as the Fruitcake Capital of the World.

In spite of growing public opposition, punch drunk with power and totally out of touch with the folks and reality, President Obama; Speaker Pelosi; Majority Leader Reid; and their fellow psychos in Congress are continuing to pursue their Marxist dreams of Socialized Medicine. We the People need to reclaim control of the Asylum, put a stop to all this madness, and once again remind our dear ole Uncle Sammy to keep his long and obtrusive nose out of private sector free market Healthcare System.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 40: “The Patients Really are Running the Asylum”

“With these changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes Nothing remains quite the same

With all of my running and all of my cunning If I couldn't laugh I just would go insane

If we couldn't laugh we just would go insane If we weren't all crazy we would go insane “

Jimmy Buffett – “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes”

There seems to be some seriously crazy ass folks currently running this Country. This handful of leftwing Socialist extremist all appear to be inflicted with a Messiah and/or God complex or some other truly dangerous psychological malady.

With a grandiose sense of self importance and arrogance, thinking they are just right smarter than everyone else and all the experts in their respective fields, this bunch of inexperienced lunatics are already running Wall Street; the US Auto industry; the domestic Energy industry; and now have their delusionary hearts set on a hostile takeover of 1/6 of the domestic economy, the US Healthcare System.

Starting with our MD/Healer/ Physician/Head Nurse/Med Tech/Hospital Administrator/Orderly/Candy Striper/Brain Surgeon/Bedpan Cleaner/Radiologist/Never Spent a Single Minute of his Life Working in the Healthcare Industry-in-Chief, our 44th President Barack Husain Obama, along with the politicians and White House staffers writing the so called Healthcare Reform (Socialized Medicine) legislation all of whom don’t know jack about delivering or financing Healthcare Services.

-

A quick check of the President’s bio confirms his “work” experience in the healthcare industry:

1. ________________
2. ________________
3. ________________

Impressive, a big fat goose egg; zero; nada; zilch; nothing/no thing. Of course the President in actuality doesn’t have any real business or management experience, Healthcare or otherwise. He has never met a payroll, negotiated a line of credit, purchased insurance for employees or competed in a free market economy.

To be fair, he was born in a hospital; frequently drives by one; he does watch “Grey’s Anatomy” on Thursday nights; and Michelle did have that cushy part time position as Community Outreach Director at the University of Chicago making $300 grand while working only 20 hours a week. We should all sleep like fat babies at night comforted from the knowledge that such a seasoned and experienced individual is not only running the Government but also a big chunk of our private sector economy.

Rahm Emanuel, White House Chief of Staff and Political Hatchet man; Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House; and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid are the other three seasoned “Healthcare professionals” merging together a final bill. A review of their Healthcare credentials reveals the following:

· Rahm Emanuel – Chicago political hack; Clinton flunky; Investment Banker; Board Member of the corrupt and now financially defunct Freddie Mac; Congressman/Democratic leadership.
Healthcare Experience – Father and brother both Docs; Watches “Greys Anatomy” with First Family on Thursday nights
· Nancy Pelosi – Mother of 5 little Socialist; San Francisco political hack; Married money; Congresswoman/Democratic leadership.
Healthcare Experience – Has 3 Plastic Surgeons on call 24/7; Spends summer vacations in exclusive Swiss Psychiatric Hospital receiving therapy for her chronic “I’m a hopeless airhead, radical, leftwing, liberal, Socialist/Marxist, head case” Syndrome; She loved the movie “Coma”
· Harry Reid – Nevada political hack; Congressman; Senator/Democratic leadership; seemingly has never earned a dime in the private sector.
Healthcare Experience: Played Doctor once when12 with girl next door; Received millions from malpractice trial lawyers lobby; Addicted to old MASH reruns.

Taking all this into consideration raises some interesting questions:

1. Have we completely lost our collective minds allowing four individuals, with absolutely zero experience in the healthcare industry, to write a bill that basically transforms our current free market Health system into Socialized Medicine, resulting in rationing, increased cost and a lower quality of care?
2. Isn’t it crazy to turn the best Healthcare System in the world upside down and inside out when 85% of us love it and the other 15% can be taken care of without spending trillions and a Government takeover?
3. Do we need to stop the madness, throw this Bill out, consult the experts and fix what needs fixen and keep Uncle Sammy’s grubby little hands off of our Healthcare?

The answers and feel free to shout em out loud openly and without shame:

1. YES!
2. HELL YES!!!
3. HELL BARACK HUISAN OBAMA IS A POINTY HEADED SOCIALIST RADICAL LEFTWING MARXIST YES!!!!!

Another question that begs answering is will our Bonehead-in-Chief and his liberal comrades in Congress ever learn that it is contrary to the Laws of Nature and Physics for big Government to run any large Socialist entitlement program, actually with the exception of the Military it’s probably fair to include any large entity in this category, in an efficient, productive and fiscally responsible fashion? Albert Einstein defined insanity as “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. According to ole Al the President and his liberal elitist fellow Democrats must all be stark raving mad.

With Healthcare Reform/Socialized Medicine being their most recent departure from sanity there are a mess of other examples that support Al’s “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” diagnosis including:

· Social Security – Established during the Great Depression as a financial safety net. Current status: Bloated, broke and insolvent
· Medicaid and Medicare – Passed into law in the 1960’s as part of LBJ’s Great Society to provide healthcare for the elderly and poor. Current status: Riddled with fraud and corruption, bloated, broke and insolvent.
· Welfare/War on Poverty – Also part of LBJ’s Great Society, trillions expended, victim class created. Current status: Lost the War.
· The U.S. Postal Service - Established in 1775, Current status: Even with no competition on daily mail delivery, bloated, broke and insolvent.
· Fannie Mae established in 1938 and Freddie Mac in 1970 have both gone belly up because of experiments in social engineering advocating the redistribution of wealth. Current status: Riddled with fraud and corruption, bloated, broke and insolvent.

Adding Government run Healthcare/Socialized Medicine to this list confirms the “Change We Can Believe In” gang are all crazier than an outhouse rat.

Are the patients really running the asylum? If Einstein’s definition of insanity holds water it would unfortunately seem to be an accurate assessment of our current political predicament.

Bless their psychotic hearts, hopefully we can keep these poor demented souls away from matches, sharp objects and from implementing major Socialist program initiatives doomed for failure for the next three years. Good Lord willing and the creek don’t rise we will all survive this insanity until then, at which time, Baracky, Rhamy. Nancy and Harry can all take well deserved extended “vacations” at the Democrat Oaks Psychiatric Hospital for the Seriously Disturbed and Crazy Ass People.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 39: “Barackasswards”

“The Arabs are a backwards people who eat nothing but Camel dung” Winston Churchill

In the grand scheme of things there seems to be no doubt that our 44th President and Creator of Crisis-in-Chief has his priorities completely out of whack. During week 39 of the train wreck known as the Obama Administration our President declared war on the US Health Insurance industry, Rush Limbaugh and the Fox News Network. With a real live shooting war already raging in Afghanistan in dire need of Presidential leadership it would seem Mr. Obama’s actions are totally “Barackasswards”.

The Camel dung consuming folks Mr. Churchill so eloquently refers to above, certainly not all Arabs but definitely the likes of al Qaeda, the Taliban and all the other wild eyed Islamic Jihadist currently infesting Afghanistan and Pakistan, demand and deserve our full and undivided attention. President Obama’s waffling and indecisiveness about his Afghan strategy with troops in harm’s way is inexcusable and another sign of his “Barackasswards” approach to waging this war.

Back in August our Waffler-in-Chief’s handpicked commander of the Afghan Theatre, General McChrystal, recommended the addition of 40,000 troops would be required for a successful counterinsurgency. He further warned the situation on the ground was quickly going to Hell in a Handbag and that the war could be lost without immediate and decisive action. 8 weeks later no decisions, no direction, and a total vacuum of Presidential leadership. Unequivocally a “Barackasswards” response to an urgent and serious situation.

Our Passivist-in-Chief claims the unstable political situation, specifically the Presidential runoff election in Afghanistan, needs to be resolved before he makes any final decisions about our military strategy. Considering the political situation in Afghanistan has been unstable for centuries and the occupant of their Presidential mansion has absolutely no impact on our ability to kill Mr. Churchill’s Camel Dung eaters, Mr. Obama’s inaction is inexplicable and completely “Barackasswards”.

Unfortunately, our Appeaser-in-Chief’s strategy in Afghanistan is consistent with the blame America first, bend over and grab his ankles, thank you sir may I have another approach to foreign policy he has pursued around the world for the last 39 weeks. This “Barackasswards” foreign policy does not bode well for our national security interest or standing in the world. New real national security crisis are spreading across the globe faster than kudzu.

Current hot spots created in large part by our “Barackasswards” foreign policy initiatives include:

· Central and South America – Exchanging books with insane 3rd world Despots and enduring hours of Hate America BS – Bend over and grab his ankles, thank you Mr. Chavez and Noriega may I have another - “Barackasswards” diplomacy at its best.
· Middle East Peace Talks – Folding to Israel’s refusal to stop expansion – Bend over and grab his ankles, thank you Mr. Netanyahu may I have another - “Barackasswards” diplomacy at its best.
· Islamic Outreach – Address to Muslim world from Cairo apologizing and blaming America for all the sins of the world - Bend over and grab his ankles, thank you Mr. Abdul Mohammad the Goat Herder may I have another - “Barackasswards” diplomacy at its best.
· Folding like a cheap lawn chair to the Russians - Canceling the Polish and Czech missile defense bases - Bend over and grab his ankles, thank you Mr. Medvedev and Putin may I have another - “Barackasswards” diplomacy at its best.
· North Korea - nuclear nonproliferation, more testing, Americans held hostage - Bend over and grab his ankles, thank you Mr. Kim Jong-il may I have another - “Barackasswards” diplomacy at its best.

The Change gang in the White House has created an economic; energy; climate change; healthcare; and health insurance crisis of biblical proportions in their relentless efforts to hoodwink the folks and implement their Socialist/Marxist policies. Their one real crisis, with the lives of our Armed Services folks hanging in the balance, has been deferred, probably for political reasons, to appease Mr. Obama’s ultra leftwing comrades in Congress and financial supporters.

It is high time we wiped out Mr. Churchill’s Camel Dung eating Arab members of the Taliban and al Qaeda in Afghanistan and Pakistan. To achieve victory we need bold, decisive, courageous presidential leadership. A “Barackasswards” approach can only lead to strengthening our enemies, further compromising of our national security and an increased probability of terrorist attacks on the homeland and US interest around the world.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 38: “Peace, Love, Drugs & Barack Obama”

“For his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples”

Our Passivist-in-Chief finally received that 3:00AM phone call Hillary made so famous during last year’s Democrat Presidential primary. The good news – it wasn’t a national security emergency or major natural disaster. The astonishing/unbelievable news – our 44th President received word of his selection as the 2009 recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Who would of thunk it? A collective “What the Hell?” rang out from conservatives, independents and even bastions of liberal hysteria including the likes of CNN and the New York Times. Our International Appeaser-in-Chief got the Nobel stamp of approval for alleged “… extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.” The operative word being efforts. Especially when you consider the President was nominated for this honor 12 short days after infesting the Oval Office.

A quick check of national and world news during the “Yes We Can Win the Presidency With Absolutely No Leadership Experience; A Stealth Socialist/Communist Agenda; and 100’s of Radical Liberal Extremist on Stand By to Infiltrate the Highest Echelons of the Halls of Government” Administration’s first 2 weeks reveals a mess of boneheaded decisions but not one mention of, even by Obama’s legions of adoring followers in the media elite press corps, a detectable uptick in “…strengthened international diplomacy and/or cooperation between peoples.”

In fact, most of the President’s attention during his first 2 weeks in office was focused on lying to us about the economic crisis that could only be avoided by passage of his so called Stimulus Package. The one the change gang promised would save millions of jobs keeping unemployment in check under 8%.

_
It passed and 8 months later we’re within a frog’s hair of 10%. His other efforts concentrated on ordering Gitmo’s closing by year’s end, bad policy that fortunately ain’t gona happen; and defending tax cheats and terrorists sympathizers Presidential appointees, all of whom for the most part are still working in the West Wing;

Interesting “…strengthened international diplomacy and/or cooperation between peoples.” wasn’t mentioned as a high priority for the White House those first couple of weeks. Obviously, the esteemed Nobel Selection Committee was either privy to a secret Obama Foreign Policy initiative or they made their decision based on nothing more than an ultra liberal Socialist World View and wanted to send a strong message of support to the new leader of this movement, Barack Husain Obama.

After so many years of conducting the affairs of the Nobel Prize with the dignity, integrity and fairness deserving of such a prestigious award it is truly tragic they have dropped the bar so low and recognized such an undeserving individual. The travesty of this decision becomes even more evident with a little one on one comparison with a few notable deserving previous recipients:

· Martin Luther King, JR. - Civil Rights Leader. Risked life and limb at every public appearance. A man of great personal courage. Advocated peaceful civil disobedience. Assassinated as the leader of the cause inspiring tens of millions to support Civil Rights legislation.
President Obama’s Comparable Achievements: None, not even close, nada, their names should never be mentioned in the same sentence, as different as night and day.
· Nelson Mandela - former President of South Africa the first to be elected in a fully representative democratic election. Mandela was an anti-apartheid activist and the leader of the African National Congress. He served 27 years in prison for his struggle against apartheid. Following his release from prison on February 11, 1990, Mandela supported reconciliation and negotiation, and helped lead the transition towards multi-racial democracy in South Africa.
President Obama’s Comparable Achievements: None, zero, the big goose egg, not in the same league, ballpark or zip code.
· Mother Teresa, India, Leader of the Order of the Missionaries of Charity. Spent her entire adult life serving the poor in the squalor, rat infested and disease ridden slums of India. Truly the Gold Standard for the Nobel Peace Prize.
President Obama’s Comparable Achievements: He recently watched the movie “Slum Dog Millionaire.”

Recent winners have been more leftist, Socialist, less deserving and blatantly political in nature including the following recipients:

· 1990, Mikhail Gorbachev, President of the USSR - helped to bring the Cold War to an end. Ronald Wilson Reagan, the man that did bring the cold war to an end, wasn’t even seriously considered.
· 1994, Yasser Arafat, Chairman of the PLO – An international terrorist thug. His brother Nawsser accepted the award on his behalf in Stockholm
2001, United Nations and Kofi Annan, United Nations Secretary General – A bloated group of leftist 3rd World diplomats led at the time by an international criminal. The Nobel’s way of publically rebuking US for electing W.
· 2002,

Jimmy “Peanut” Carter, former President of the United States of America – Easily the 2cd worst choice in the history of the award. Another admonishment of W’s policies.
· 2007, Al Gore, Mr. “Inconvenient Lie” hisself – Seems the Nobel Committee has as bad a case of the W Schizophrenia as the Obama Administration.

And now the Nobel folks have gone off and given their once honorable prize to an US President for his anti-American; apology; appeasement; bend over and grab his ankles; thank you sir may I have another approach to foreign policy. If this trend continues Hugo Chavez, Castro, Ahmadinejad in Iran, and North Korea’s Kim Jong-il all best start writing their acceptance speeches as highly probable future Prize winners based on their radical boneheaded world views.

Week 38 ended with a whirlwind of activity on the President’s Socialized Medicine and Government takeover of the US Healthcare System. The Senate Finance Committee finally approved there much anticipated Healthcare Reform/Socialized Medicine Bill and the Administration hosted a pep rally with 200 or so docs all decked out in their White House provided white lab coats making the ridiculous claim the entire medical community is sold on Obamacare.

Certainly makes one wonder if similar theatrics will be employed at future Obama propaganda gatherings on other policy initiatives in this gang’s never ending efforts to hoodwink the folks. We can just imagine this crowd orchestrating the following made for TV “Ho Ax’s:”

· Poverty and the Homeless – White House provided shopping carts, Bag Ladies and a pint of Thunderbird for all attendees
· Gays in the Military – Pink camouflage fatigues, pumps and flak jackets
· Global Warming/Climate Change – bathing suits, hand fans and coats made from dead “extinct” polar bear hides
· Teen Pregnancy- condoms, chastity belts
· Islamic Outreach – tents, goats, rugs, towels, sheets and diapers. All the apparel required to create the latest in stylish Jihadist headgear

Since its inception in the early 1900’s Nobel Peace Prize recipients have inspired millions to pursue the aspirations of our “Better Angels” promoting human rights, civil rights, freedom and liberty. More recent recipients, especially the 2009 Prize winner, our very own Ankle Grabber-in-Chief, make a total mockery of this once serious and substantial award.

Instead of a Nobel Thoughts of Obama from Bama has nominated President Obama for our first annual “Man Up” Prize. If he lets go of those skinny ankles; Stands up; Defends America and our position as the world’s only super-power; Promotes our great nation and leadership role in the world; and supports the spread of freedom and liberty to all 4 corners of the planet we will proudly bestow this great honor on our Pacifist-in-chief.

As the probability of the President actually adhering to any of these criteria is so dismal we can always fallback to Secretary of State Clinton as our first Prize winner. Truly deserving of this honor in recognition of her butt ugly “Man Up” pants suits, uncanny ability to duck enemy sniper fire when traveling abroad, and the ease and comfort she knocks a few shots and a beer back with the boys in pubs and bars from Dublin to Moscow.

With the success of our “Man Up” Award the Nobel Peace Prize and their radical, leftwing, pacifist, wimp Prize recipients should be a distant memory in the not so distant future. Hopefully long before the Obama one term presidency comes to a screeching halt in 2012.
