This week was notable for two events: the terrible tragedy at Fort Hood and the Liberals assault on our freedom by passing the health care reform act, the "Government takeover of Healthcare act."
Where was our beloved Leader, the self described messiah, Barry O.? Any true leader would have immediately flown to Texas to be with the Fort Hood family in this calamity. Any true leader would have shut down Congress so we could mourn. But not Barry. He and his boys of the Socialist inclination were so engrossed in changing America, they were in Washington. That should tell us of the priorities he has. Forget America, forget the calamities, forget the military, go after Socialism and Control and Power. That is first and foremost on his mind.
Shouldnt this tell us something about his character and his priorities (as if we did not know it after nearly two years). Is this how a Leader should act? Of course not. Who ever said Barry was a leader? He isnt and never was and never will be. His whole purpose in life is to be loved and adored and admired by his fans. Not to lead.
Perhaps he is in a sense leading us . . . to his promised land of equality among all, of European style Socialism and World non-power. I for one do not want to be lead like sheep to the slaughter for his own skewed world view.

Earth to Barry: listen to what people are saying to you
Barry loves Small businesses. He knows he needs them to create jobs. so he is making a special plea to them. Offering them lots of government goodies and incentives. In his mind, that is acknowledging their importance. But he is hearing back (at least they are telling him, not that he is hearing it) that the best thing he can do for them is to get government off their backs, make life easier, less regulation and taxation, and let us do our businesses they way we know best.
That is not registering with Barry and the boys. Their hearing aid only allows one form of communication in: more government. The thought of less government is tuned out. How can they not want government aid. Dont we all agree government is good and the more government the better? What kind of people are they? He is dumbfounded and wonders why small businesses are not applauding his offers.
Listen Barry. Listen. Put aside your prejudices and listen to what they are saying. And then act upon it.
The rest of your term of president can be either great for you or a meat grinder. Right now, your popularity is falling to unprecedented lows, your party has taken a major loss at the polls, and Congress is running straight into a minefield. Listen to them. Get government off their backs. They do not want more government programs, just less government. The choice is yours. how your term (not terms if you do not listen) ends up is your choice.
The people have spoken.

The Fanatic
The definition of a Fanatic is one who when he knows he has lost and has no chance of winning redoubles his efforts.
Sounds like another definition for Barry and the boys. They seem to be in a major disconnect to ordinary Americans (ordinary for them means citizens from Crossover country who are nothing whatsoever like the liberal elite from the bicoastal weirdness.) Did not they listen in August when the tea parties and representative meetings told the administration and Congress very clearly 1) They wanted priority placed on the economy and jobs and 2) No more big government (which included health care reform and cap and trade energy control). So like regular liberals whose hearing aids are turned off, they went back and preceded to double up on those issues. In November on election day, they got trounced and exit polls spoke clearly, confirming those August announcements. And like any good liberal, they went and doubled up.
Do they not hear what people are saying? Do they even care (obviously not)? Liberals in general only listen to what other liberal elites say. The "Silent Majority" of Crossover country Americans do not count, being hackeyed, rural uneducated, conservatives preoccupied with guns and religion. No, the liberal elites think they know best and damn it, it is their way or the highway. Well this time it looks like they are going to get their wish: the highway only they are the ones heading out of town not the middle americans.
Serves them right.

History Lesson
Excerpt from Manuscript found in ruins
"In the End times there was a ruler named Barry.
He ruled over the people with an iron closed mind.
He and his followers said, "Let there be a Health Care policy for all"
and the people said "We want jobs and the economy to be better."
But Barry said, "I know what is best for you. We must have a big government, spend trillions of dollars, Own Health Care, Energy, and most businesses."
and the people said "We want to run our own lives. We know what is best for us."
But Barry said, "I am an elite. I am well educated. I know what is best for you. You are just peons too self absorbed in your own petty lives to know what the world should be like. We know and you should shut up and let us make decisions for you."
and the people said, "give us a break. We are smarter than you think. We know what is best for us."
But Barry said, "Government is good. business is bad. Government should make decisions about health, energy, pay, everything. We, the elite, knows what is best for you. We want everybody to be equal."
and the people said, "You are not hearing us. We said it clearly in August. We said it clearly in November: "Let us be free and make our own decisions."
But Barry said, "But if you do what you want, you will not do what we the Elites know what is best. You will use Gas and Coal not solar and wind. You will eat meat not vegetables. You will drive cars not bike or mass transit. We know what is best for you. Listen to us. We are the Elites. We care about you, you poor dumb uneducated crossover Americans with your guns, your religion, your big cars. "
and the people said, "Be gone. Twice we spoke and twice you did not listen. Three strikes and you are out."
And Fire and Brimstone struck all of Barry's followers and Barry and they were struck down and removed from office.
But Barry said dazed as he left the Big house "But We know what is best. Why did not they listen to us. We are the elite."
and the people said, "Let us be free once again to do as we want how we want when we want."
And there was peace and prosperity once again, until years later when the People let their guard down and forgot the lessons of the past, a new Barry arose.

Barry Plays the Orphan
Ever heard the story about the man who shot his parents and threw himself on the mercy of the court by saying he was an orphan? Well we have another case.
Barry and the Boys have been spending money like a bunch of drunken sailors and the hangover is yet to come . . . 800 billion for stimulus, a trillion or two for financial institutions, deficits in the trillions of dollars, let alone the cost for health care and cap and trade. And one day, just recently, it has dawned on him that all this spending can be unhealthy and creates a huge deficit. So he has issued a debt reduction emergency.
Wanna bet on what he decides to do? Cut spending? Ha. Raise taxes. The poor old government does not get enough money from those rich people. It needs more and more and more. They are not paying their fair share. What exactly is their fair share anyway? 50 percent? 60 percent? Under FDR, tax rates reached 90+ %. And we know how well the economy did. Doesn't Barry O ever read history? Or does he merely believe in his own arrogant grandoise ability to change the course of a country.
Perhaps he should take a step backwards and start cutting instead of adding. But Barry will not be satisfied until 100% of the economy is government produced and every employee is a government employee. ANd of course we will all be broke and penniless. But he will be out of office well before then and it will be someone else's problem, probably a Republican forced to clean up his messes.

The Peter Principle
In the Peter Principle, one anecdote I distinctly remember is "Concentrate on the little things, the big things will take care of themselves" from one of the iron rules of incompetence. What brings this to mind is our beloved Leader's (Barry and the Boys) spin on Afghanistan and any other international problem. He cant make up his mind on what to do. On one hand, if he is aggressive, he takes the risk of angering his friends on the far, far, left. But if he pulls out too quickly he breaks a major campaign promise. So far, all he wants to do is vote "Present." and hope the problem goes away on its own. So instead of concentrating on resolving the international issues (Afganistan, Iran), he concentrates on the little things that is important: his dog's birthday party, among other items. I believe the Peter Principle was the one book written about Barry that is absolutely true.
Hey, I did not vote for him. Half of America was besmidden by his good looks, his charm, his oratory abilities, the prospect of America's first black president and did not look past the exterior to see what was inside. If they had they would have found no backbone, no spine, no gut, and obviously only half a brain. How many more years do we have? Counting down the days and hoping we can make it to 2012 in one piece.

Barack wins Olympic medal for "Being There"
I must be from the old school. I always believed you earned a prize or medal. For example you had to compete and beat a bunch to win the Olympic gold. To win the medal of honor or Purple Heart you had to do something really special like save a ship or your platoon of men. When I received my diplomas I had to work hard to get them, pass many tests and courses. But of course that was then, now it must be in to simply be there to be awarded a prize or medal.And then one has to be a great football player to earn an Heisman.
Nowadays all you have to do is show up. Barack got the Peace Prize for what? What accomplishment has he ever completed let alone something great? This is media and idolatry at its worse. The nobel committee needs to be reviewed Perhaps we can ship the UN to Sweden and let both deliberate forever. What a sham.
