Obama Lost The Washington Post

 I did not write this. But, I think everyone should read it, so here it is:

THE WASHINGTON POST HITS OBAMA

Finally, the Washington Post and Newsweek speak out about Obama. This is timely

and tough. As many of you know, the Washington Post and Newsweek have a reputation

for being extremely liberal. The fact that their editors saw fit to print

the following article about Obama and the one that appears in the latest Newsweek, makes this a truly amazing event, and a news story in and of itself. At last, the truth about our

President and his agenda are starting to trickle through the

“protective wall” built around him by the liberal media.

I Too Have Become Disillusioned

By Matt Patterson (columnist - Washington Post, New York Post, San

Francisco Examiner)

Years from now, historians may regard the 2008 election of Barack

Obama as an inscrutable and disturbing phenomenon, the result of a

baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the

Middle Ages. How, they will wonder, did a man so devoid of

professional accomplishment beguile so many into thinking he could

manage the world's largest economy, direct the world's most powerful

military, execute the world's most consequential job?

Imagine a future historian examining Obama's pre-presidential life:

ushered into and through the Ivy League, despite unremarkable grades and test scores along the way; a cushy non-job as a "community organizer;" a brief career as a state legislator devoid of legislative achievement (and in fact nearly devoid of his attention, so often did he vote "present"); and finally an unaccomplished single term in the United States Senate, the entirety of which was devoted to his

presidential ambitions.

He left no academic legacy in academia, authored no signature legislation as a legislator. And then there is the matter of his troubling associations: the white-hating, America-loathing preacher who for decades served as Obama's "spiritual mentor"; a real-life, actual terrorist who served as Obama's colleague and political sponsor. It is easy to imagine a future historian looking at it all and asking: how on Earth was such a man elected president?

Not content to wait for history, the incomparable Norman Podhoretz addressed the question recently in the Wall Street Journal: To be sure, no white candidate who had close associations with an outspoken hater of America like Jeremiah Wright and an unrepentant terrorist like Bill Ayers, would have lasted a single day. But because Mr. Obama

was black, and therefore entitled in the eyes of liberal Dom to have hung out with protesters against various American injustices, even if they were a bit extreme, he was given a pass. Let that sink in: Obama was given a pass - held to a lower standard - because of the color of his skin.

Podhoretz continues: And in any case, what did such ancient history matter when he was also so articulate and elegant and (as he himself had said) "non-threatening," all of which gave him a fighting chance to become the first black president and thereby to lay the curse of racism to rest?

Podhoretz puts his finger, I think, on the animating pulse of the Obama phenomenon - affirmative action. Not in the legal sense, of course. But certainly in the motivating sentiment behind all affirmative action laws and regulations, which are designed primarily to make white people, and especially white liberals, feel good about themselves.

Unfortunately, minorities often suffer so that whites can pat

themselves on the back. Liberals routinely admit minorities to schools for which they are not qualified, yet take no responsibility for the inevitable poor performance and high drop-out rates which follow.

Liberals don't care if these minority students fail; liberals aren't around to witness the emotional devastation and deflated self-esteem resulting from the racist policy that is affirmative action. Yes, racist. Holding someone to a separate standard merely because of the color of his skin - that's affirmative action in a nutshell, and if that isn't racism, then nothing is.

And that is what America did to Obama. True, Obama himself was never troubled by his lack of achievements, but why would he be? As many have noted, Obama was told he was good enough for Columbia despite undistinguished grades at Occidental; he was told he was good enough

for the US Senate despite a mediocre record in Illinois ; he was told he was good enough to be president despite no record at all in the Senate. All his life, every step of the way, Obama was told he was good enough for the next step, in spite of ample evidence to the contrary.

What could this breed if not the sort of empty narcissism on display every time Obama speaks? In 2008, many who agreed that he lacked executive qualifications nonetheless raved about Obama's oratory skills, intellect, and cool character. Those people - conservatives included - ought now to be deeply embarrassed.

The man thinks and speaks in the hoariest of clichés, and that's when he has his Teleprompters in front of him; when the prompter is absent he can barely think or speak at all. Not one original idea has ever issued from his mouth - it's all warmed-over Marxism of the kind that has failed over and over again for 100 years.

And what about his character? Obama is constantly blaming anything and everything else for his troubles. Bush did it; it was bad luck; I inherited this mess. Remember, he wanted the job, campaigned for the task. It is embarrassing to see a president so willing to advertise his own powerlessness, so comfortable with his own incompetence. But really, what were we to expect? The man has never been responsible for

anything, so how do we expect him to act responsibly?

In short: our president is a small-minded man, with neither the temperament nor the intellect to handle his job. When you understand that, and only when you understand that, will the current erosion of liberty and prosperity make sense. It could not have gone otherwise with such a man in the Oval Office.

Obamacare Exposed

 Obamacare is worse than I thought. And, obviously I knew it would be bad. It is the biggest tax increase this country has ever seen. Especially if you include the fines and penalties it forces on us.
 I had the privilege of attending a meeting of Wyoming leaders. We shared our knowledge of what Obamacare was going to do to the US. Some of the things discussed were scary.
 I don't understand why people want the government to completely take over their healthcare. I guess they just think it will mean more handouts for them. However, the truth is, we will all have to pay out the nose.
 Here are some of the facts, and  I will have to be brief for space.
 First, the laughingly named "Affordable Care Act" bill is longer than the Bible (I checked). And, the Obamacrats hero: Nancy Pelosi said "We have to pass this bill so people can find out what's in it". The Dem-controlled Congress passed it and admitted they didn't even know what was in it (smart).
 Obamacare cuts Medicare $716 Billion. If I were an old retired person, I would be worried. But, most of them will vote for Obama-again.
 People who don't pay for Obamacare will be fined and could go to jail. Obama is hiring more IRS agents, as they will be in charge of forcing us  to pay. They will take the fines out of our tax refunds, and, if that is not enough, they will take the money out of our bank accounts-which they will have records of.
 They will also have computer records of every time you go to the doctor and why. If you had VD or an abortion when you were a kid, the gov. will have records of it when you are 90.
 Obamacare will bankrupt your insurance co. so you will have to get all your insurance from the Feds. Your premiums will go up 40 to 60% (mine have already).
 There will be fewer doctors. They don't want to get paid less and have more paperwork.
 States, employers, and individuals, will pay the price ($65 Billion) in ten years. Not the Feds who impose it.
 A 15 man "Death Panel" will decide who gets medical care (I remember when Obama told a lady that her 80 year old mother will get pain killers-and that's all).
 It stops FSA, HSA, and HRA deductions on income taxes.
  It stops tax deductions for employer-provided retirement drug coverage.
 A $50,000 a year fine on Charitable Hospitals who don't comply completely.
 Employers will have to pay for abortions, abortion pills and contraceptives.
 The tax increases are:
 Employers tax of up to $3,000 per year for each employee.
Taxes on investment income increases.
Capital Gains tax goes from 15% to 23.8% on $200.000+ incomes.
Some dividends and other investments go to 43.4%.
Medicare payroll tax.
Medical devices 2.3% more.
 Higher Blue Cross/Blue Shield costs.
A $2.3 Billion tax on inventive drug companies.
 A bio-fuel tax.
Insurance co. tax.
More taxes on comprehensive health insurance.
 And, the IRS can disallow any, and all, tax deductions to pay for Obamacare.
 Does anybody remember when Obama promised that he would not raise taxes on the middle class? That would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.
 I have experienced Obamacare in Communist Vietnam a few years ago. It is the same, basically. About a hundred people stand in line for a few hours waiting to see a doctor. The doctor is paid the same for one patient or a hundred. Of course there are not enough doctors. The gov. controls everything. The hospitals are run down, and the people are treated like sheep.
 That is what the Democrats want.
 Romney  promised to stop Obamacare as soon as he takes office. We will hold him to that. Guess who I am voting for?

Incompetent Obama

 Obama really torqued me off when he said: "If you have a business, you didn't build that, someone else did". I will always remember him for that. It is kind of like Clinton who is remembered for saying: "I didn't have sexual relations with that woman". Of course these guys are birds of a feather, except Obama is worse.
 I started working alongside grown men when I was 7. I started driving a tractor in the hay fields.
 When I was 19, I started becoming a businessman, when I bought a house, rented it out, and became a landlord. By the time I was 26, I owned 3 houses and a ranch. That was when I started my own excavating business, after helping someone start theirs. When I was 38, I starting my ranching business.
 Then, Obama, who has never even had a lemonade stand business, or a REAL job even, tells me I didn't build my business. What kind of pompous ass is he anyway?
 This guy has had everything handed to him all his life, and doesn't know what it's like to have renters who think you are a kid, so they don't have to pay their rent. Or have jealous competitors who try to destroy your excavating business, because you are lower priced and do better work.
 He only knew how to get someone else to pay for his college, and his political schemes. And, how to help ACORN make dead people and illegal aliens vote for Democrats.
 Now, he has admitted his "Hope and Change" baloney is nothing but Hype and Blame, when he said: "you can't change Washington from the inside". Wasn't he elected to change Washington from the inside? Was everything he said, to get elected, nothing but pure bull manure?
 If I had to pick one printable word to describe Obama, it would be Phony. However, the second would be Incompetent. Of course you can include Socialist, Abortionist, etc.
 Why anyone would vote for Obama again, and get 4 more years of the same, is baffling to me. Go figure.
