I
used to think BJ Clinton was the worst president in American history
because of his open criminality and blatant dishonesty. Last night,
listening to Our Barry spin his web of mendacities and crowing his
shocking economic ignorance I realized that BJ was a walk in the park
compared to what we have inflicted upon ourselves in a new century.
After all, when BJ said the era of big government was over, that he
never even met the Chicom arms dealers who spent so much time in the
White House and that he had never slept with Monica or Jennifer or
Paula or Jaunita we all knew he was lying and he knew we knew, he was
just daring us to do something about it. He clobbered everyone who
tried. Put some ice on
that Newt!
But BJ was on one level a lovable rogue. You could catch the gleam in
his eye as he evaded another inconvenient question or launched an air
strike against some hapless savages to blow the latest scandal below
the fold that day.
With BJ you knew he was lying but with The
Friend of the ACORNs you sometimes wonder whether he actually believes
the hogwash he spouts. He can control the economy and the weather?
Thats nice. It turns out that all of us Teabaggers are so blinded by
ideology and hatred that we have missed this roaring economy, so much
better than the one in the Horrible Bush Years when unemployment was
4%. But we all know that. The feeble 'freeze' that he has proposed
after last year's huge increase in discretionary spending is about as
likely to be enacted by Nutsy Pelosi and the shopaholics in Congress as
Barry is likely to nominate Mark Levin for the next open Supreme Court
seat. Hey, and those clowns on the Court better wise up too, Barry's
not amused! You can take that First Amendment stuff a little too far.
I
did feel bad about ignoring all that overwhelming science about Global
Warming, oops I mean Climate Change. The overwhelming science that
predicted that the Arctic ice cap will have melted by now and that the
glaciers would be gone from the slopes of the Himalayas. The rising
seas which arent rising...but when they do...! Well we still need Cap
and Trade to tax that bad old carbon because, even if the Deniers might
have a point, the tax has its heart in the right place and is much
needed.
But policy isnt the main point of this little blurb. I'm
in the entertainment industry and so I watch these things with a
Deaverish eye. How did the speech work on TV? It was awful. A disaster.
Applause lines that were so lamely delivered that no one applauded. A
ham-handed and very inaccurate attack on the Supreme Court. Two thirds
into it he started with a whole new way of telling us simpletons how
mad he was. I thought at that point that the teleprompter guy had
gotten the pages mixed up. I used to marvel at how many speechmakers
looked down at their cue cards while they were on TV. Obama is worse;
he looks from prompter screen to prompter screen, right to left, always
a three quarter shot, never into the camera. You wouldnt have ever
caught Reagan ( an excellent speaker, one of the best) doing something
like that, or even BJ Clinton (who I never thought was a very good
speaker).
When Harry Reid was happily chortling about a black
guy who had dumped the 'Negrow Dialect' he never would have thought that
the day would come when we'd all be yearning for a little more 'Negrow'
and a little less Princeton from President Mush Mouth. Once I went to
see Nelson Mandela at the LA Colosseum. The warm-up speakers were
Maxine Waters and Jesse Jackson. That's Negrow Dialect I can enjoy. They
had 80,000 people on their feet jumping up and down, myself included.
We laughed, we cried, we yelled along. Mandela was better than both of
them, of course, but that was because of what he was saying, not how he
delivered it. You could have heard a pin drop.
Not so with
Barry. No style and no substance. This was a lecture, not a call to the
barricades. A part-time professor at a junior college who arrived late
and found someone had parked in his space. This is the tired and
desperate con-man trying to sell us clueless Eskimos
another refrigerator.
The Dems cant be happy about this. Old Dawg liberals like Barbara Boxer
and Russ Feingold are watching their 'safe' seats turn into very iffy
propositions. They know what the screamin' millions think about our
'expanding economy' and they're scared about November. If they think
this is an Obama problem then they are as delusional as he is. The big
disadvantage they have is the liberal media whose uncritical optimism
gives them the impression that the current revolution is just the usual
fringe crackpots. A photo in Time or Newsweek of the nutball who showed
up at the Tea Party with an 'Obama is Hitler' sign keeps them from
having to show the thousand people with signs about taxes or the
constitution.
But its not just the Right. Its regular people who
dont care that much about politics. There isnt anything that has
appalled non-Right Wingers more than the way they treated that creep
Abdulmuttallib, the Islamic Panty Bomber. He was going to murder three
hundred people plus however many were on the ground when the plane hit.
He knows the names of others who want to do the same thing and he knows
who is running the operation and where they live. Those are things
we dont
know because that dope was read his Miranda Rights and given a taxpayer
funded lawyer. They should have been pouring chili powder on his burns
until he gave every word up and then they should have taken him in a
helicopter up to 10,000 feet and tossed him out. Live on TV, Al Jeezera
included. As soon as he hit the ground the cruise missiles should start
raining down on Yemen with as much consideration shown for innocent
civilians as was shown on that airplane Christmas Day.
The
smarmy lies of Gibbs and Obama about this and the Ft. Hood massacre
reflect on all these libs. Every eye can see what a bunch of traitors
they are. Our enemies are murdering our brothers and sisters. Anyone
who ever flies on an airplane has a little more fear in their brains as
we board because we know not only are there crazy fanatical whackos
trying to murder us but the incompetent buffoons who are supposed to be
stopping them are so PC they cant even mention whats going on. There is
no
reset button for that, is there? There is, its called an election.
What
this speech showed was a Democratic Party up on their feet applauding
the ongoing disaster. They are exposed in front of the nation as
bald-faced naked liars who have no intention of modifying their
destructive, greedy behavior. This is Bush's fault, is it? What have
you clowns done about it? People elected them because they bought the
eight years of fervent anti-Bush propaganda. Things were supposed to
get better and they most certainly have not. They've gotten
progressively worse. The unheard-of trillion-dollar deficits and the
Fed printing money by the trainload are causing a stampede to gold and
offshore investments and panicking people about the future. You dont
need an Ivy League degree to understand a two trillion dollar deficit.
A Democratic deficit. No fiery rhetoric or soothing promises can lie
that away.
Maybe the Dems will attempt to throw Obama under the
bus. They did it with Carter. It wont do them any good. People hate
Nutsy Pelosi and Harry 'Uriah Heep' Reid as much as they hate Obama.
The libs are leaderless and paralyzed by the realization that their
fondest dreams being unveiled has touched off a wave of rage and hatred
unparalleled in American politics. The round of primaries this spring
will bring them opponents who are riding a surge and the Dems will have
to face this assault with an increasingly unpopular President Obama
weighing them down. If the unemployment rate isnt significantly lower
by November than there are NO safe Democratic seats.
