There are telltale signs gathering from too many sources. Rod Blagojevich, the impeached and removed governor of Illinois, not only has a trial gaining steam, but has a long friendship with Tony Rezko – a central figure in the fund-raising of Barack Obama. Now he wants Obama to testify – this is an unstable equilibrium.
Then there is the birth certificate legal trouble. Rather than dying down, as would be expected if there were nothing to the phenomenon, they are growing. Given that Obama now has active duty officers refusing duty, any commander in chief who cared for his country would have just cranked off a notarized and embossed copy and been done with it.
Then there is the hatred on the left. Obama is loathed by the anti-war left, to whom he blithely lied about withdrawing from Iraq. He’s betrayed his homosexual base by disregarding them on a host of issues. He’s run Harry Reid into the ground and an Obama campaign appearance is the kiss of death even in Kennedy-land. “No one is happy,” said an uber-liberal college professor to me at the bookstore.
Then there’s unemployment; twelve point oh my goodness in California and rising elsewhere. And that after all the “jobs bills” and “stimulus packages”. The democrats were out of ideas before they launched the brilliant “Yes You Spend!” campaign, and now, well, they are just out of your money.
He’s snubbed the Hamid, smacked Bibi, and lauded Islam in umpteen soliloquies. He’s slapped rules of engagement on the Afghan theatre so troops must offer marshmallows and day-spa gift certificates before shooting with bean-bag guns and rubber bullets…but only in self defense. He’s mocked the funeral of the Polish President by golfing instead of grieving, made Hillary the secretary of state, and told the UK that it’s the “wrong region” via chintzy DVDs he sent to Gordon Brown; three unforgivable diplomatic blunders.
He’s multiplied George Bush’s ridiculous deficit by four times, signed a hate crimes law to criminalize thoughts, nationalized Chrysler and GM. He’s instituted death panels in his new health care law, ensured that insurance companies will be run out of business, and already slashed the number of practicing physicians; price controls are rationing, period. He’s engendered lawsuits by multiple states against the federal government, prompted calls for resisting federal law from governors and states attorneys general, and for the first time since the civil war produced conscientious efforts by states to nullify a federal law. To top it off, he has handed trillions of taxpayer dollars to foreign and domestic banks, and refused to have the process audited.
Barack Obama is an unmitigated disaster. He is indescribably bad, egocentric, conceited, and willfully blinded by a vanity that perpetuates all these problems. And, of course, he’s not listening.
Ok – so Barry’s cracking up. Great. What’s the point?
Let’s back up a moment and ask: Why install such a ninny in the first place? Surely the $800 million that put him in office had a certain measure of intelligence behind it – don’t you think? Would you shell out $800M and not know what you were buying? Oh, I know, I know. You want me to believe all that money came in from five dollar contributions on the web site. But forgive me if I can’t wonder about the $1M we are publicly aware came from Goldman Sachs employees alone? It’s not like the website asks you to put your thumbprint on your computer monitor and swear you’re Andy Griffith. Goldman and JPMorgan Chase don’t buy mortgage backed securities, and they don’t install politicians who fail.
But regimes with such momentum do not typically end such momentum beautifully. Soufflés like this do not serve with a crown. They collapse with a buckle. And given that the narcissist in office will press on and never listen, I think that the question is – what kind of buckle shall we have? A very vigorous, overwhelming, constitutional, and electoral one? Failing that, the pressure shall certainly be relieved elsewhere. If ACORN, or its little saplings, managed to generate several million fraudulent votes, and if the Congress is not radically flipped in November, we will have lost our chance at a civilized pressure relief valve.
How to reconcile these two dynamics? Obama was installed by intelligent money, but Obama is an absolute disaster and intelligent money doesn’t purchase disasters. Obama is not stupid, but his actions are causing fracture.
It makes the most sense if you assume the powers that be want a disaster.
Physical law indicates that momentum is a conserved quantity. When you have a bowling ball hitting a rack of pins, pins must go flying off – they cannot be contained. When the offences against the American people hammer in to such a fantastic extent, the momentum must burst into strikes; our displeasure must find the outlet by dumping the idiots at election or there shall be the full whiplash of our history to contend with. We’re not the sons of those wussies who stayed at home in Europe, you know.
And does not the intelligent Mr. Obama know this? I think he does. Certainly the chairman of JP Morgan knows this? The CEO of Goldman Sachs? We all need to question our belief that these people desire a good government given that they are all quite smart, are all quite involved, and the situation is plummeting fast. We should all consider more thoroughly whether or not Obama et al do not actively desire a fractious revolution, rather than comity and three percent growth. Could anything thrill a totalitarian more, for example, than some excuse to impose martial law? Could anything delight a communist more than “bloody revolution”? If Mr. Obama is truly this erudite and brilliant mind, he is surely aware of his actions, and his actions press constantly for breakage and discord.
It is not such a great leap to wonder aloud if he is not deliberately fomenting revolution. Or whether Obama’s impending political collapse is not designed to help cause one: ineligible for office, a corruption trial brewing in Illinois, an economic collapse, record unemployment, division between the states on the calibrated health care bill – a tidy constitutional crisis this could make. What if “they” add a whopper terrorist attack to this? If you were an enemy of the United States would you want to install a constitutional crisis for us? Would you like to finesse one into being? Would you choose attack from the outside (hard) or subversion from the inside (easy if you got the money)?
For after all, if you are a card carrying member of the “hate America first” crowd, what could be better than the nation’s destruction? And what could more greatly assist that than pushing everyone to their breaking point? And after you have drained trillions of dollars out of the American Treasury, and placed it in international safe havens, what if you took a short-position on America itself?
Being both mindful of this, and desirous to save our country, we had best walk shrewdly. Outbursts of smaller violence will provide socialists, drunk with power, with some ample excuse for even worse martial behavior. Instead, we should focus our fury and our vigor on one very, very important point.
Making sure we have very free, very fair, elections through which to vent our perfected fury.
