A strange, soulless man and his utterly failed presidency. 52713.jpeg
 

How vividly I remember the photos of Obama in Berlin during his campaign in 2008: streets literally flooded with people keen to get a glimpse of a promising young politician, expressing for us all how exhausted the world was with the most ignorant and contemptible man ever to have been a president. Reporters said a quarter of million turned out to see a man who was a junior senator and had no claim yet to being a world figure. It was intoxicating to think this bright, attractive figure might replace the murderous buffoon, George Bush, and his éminence grise, Dick Cheney, a man who might comfortably have served any of the 20th century’s great bloody dictators.

A few years later, in 2013, an estimated 4 to 6 thousand showed up for a major speech by then-President Obama, and one is surprised even that many showed, but then there is always a set of people who just want to be able to say they saw a celebrity. After all there are inexplicable people who travel to places associated with genuine monsters, notorious murderers and torturers, and have snapshots of themselves taken standing in front as though they were at the Grand Canyon or Disneyworld.  

In 2009, the Norwegian Nobel Committee, excited at seeing Bush replaced with a promising man, just as the earlier crowd in Berlin, awarded President Obama its Peace Prize after he had been in office for less than year and had achieved nothing of substance towards peace or any other worthy goal. But the Peace Prize often is awarded in hopes of influencing and encouraging a leader rather than in recognition of genuine achievement.

In Obama’s case, the hopes and encouragement fell stillborn and lifeless, and he has proved himself one of the least worthy recipients, keeping historical company with killers like Kissinger or Begin, winners whose awards also were based on futile hopes and encouragement. Obama’s distinctions in the sphere of peace include abandoning the Palestinians to their tormenters, abandoning the Egyptians to a new tyranny, pitching the people of Syria into a bloody civil war, never speaking out about the suppression of people in places like Bahrain and Saudi Arabia and Yemen, pitching the people of Ukraine into chaos, establishing a new hi-tech death-squad approach to the extrajudicial killing of people, not standing up to Israel over its unwarranted threats of war against Iran, and force-feeding the military-intelligence establishment so that it resembles a gigantic waddling Pâté de foie gras goose.   

He has done nothing for his own people, signing not one worthy piece of legislation to better the lives of less fortunate Americans. His only major domestic legislation is a costly, almost unworkable compromise on health care that will enrich insurance companies in the only Western nation not having a form of national health insurance. He will also leave his country with an almost incomprehensible debt, a debt America’s people are not asked to pay down through taxes and other appropriate fiscal and budgetary measures, ultimately leaving all the world’s holders of dollars to be cheated through the dollar’s future decline, a scam that beggars the size of Bernie Madoff’s pyramid operation or the Nigerian industry in e-mail invitations to share in vast wealth just by providing your bank account. It is irresponsibility on a colossal scale, all of the gains from the scam having served American interests from investment bankers to the military and military contractors. Obama’s force-fed military will have all its stuffing supplied involuntarily by non-Americans who have no interest in what he has done. In truth, America doesn’t have a single honest dollar to spend on anything.

  • I hear its gotten so bad all the Kenyan’s are saying he is 100% Amerikan :lol:

  • Context context context… Obama too advantage (in 2008) of a well planned media event, THE CROWD WAS THERE FOR THE FREE ROCK CONCERT NOT OBAMA.

    They used to do the same kind of thing in Haiti, trucks drive from one end of Port-a-Prince with loudspeakers telling everyone there is free food and orange juice at the capital… the starving all dutifully migrate to the capital where the media is waiting to film THE HUGE CROWD AND BROADCAST (to the rest of the island) “LOOK AT ALL THE PEOPLE HERE TO SUPPORT THEIR PRESIDENT (aristead)… WHO IS SHOWN WAVING HIS HANDS IN THE AIR AND SMILING (just like Obama does).

    …with their money shot in the can the media slinks away and the president hunkers down behind his bodyguards when the crowd tires of standing in the sun and starts demanding their free stuff.

    (socialist democrat playbook 101): create a fake event and have you lackeys in the media carry your water).

  • Totally disagree with your anti Israel poison Iran has repeatedly stated that their greatest ambition is to destroy the state of Israel. What are you guys smoking? What do you want him to do? Invade Syria,and kill more American young men that Bush did in 2 countries? are you guys smoking? F ory million Americans will not be haooy with your obsession with Obamacare,especially the blacks,who may now be able to see a doctor without bankrupting them.gIVE ME A BREAK!
