Bigger than Watergate – Sestak White House scandal called ‘impeachable offense’

As I have been saying, it would only be a matter of time till the cesspool of Chicago politics would rear it’s ugly head in Washington D.C.

Those that remember Watergate, it was not about a second rate burglary gone bad, but the abuse of power in the attempt to cover it up. Well now Barack Hussein Obama has been implicated in a criminal conspiracy to manipulate the balance of power in an political election.   

In a major political scandal orchestrated by the Obama Administration, a popular Democratic congressman from Pennsylvania has revealed that the White House tried bribing him to drop out of the upcoming U.S. Senate race.

Congressman Joe Sestak said in a television news show that the White House offered him a top federal job in an effort to keep him from challenging Senator Arlen Specter in the state’s Democratic primary. A five-term incumbent, Specter switched from Republican to Democrat last spring after giving Obama the critical vote for his disastrous and fraud-infested $787 billion stimulus program.

The president clearly wants to return the favor by helping the controversial lawmaker keep his job. In fact, Obama endorsed Specter at the White House and has raised money for the 80-year-old lawmaker. Besides the president, many top Democratic leaders have also tried to dissuade Sestak, a retired Navy admiral, from challenging Specter. 

However, attempting to bribe a legislator with a “high-ranking” federal job is deplorable and downright unethical to say the least. Obviously this is why the president and his White House staff are enraged that Sestak disclosed the unscrupulous backdoor offer to keep him out of the upcoming Democratic primary.

Before Specter bailed on Republicans Obama assured the contentious lawmaker he’d do everything in his power to help him win reelection if he switched parties. The White House assured Specter there was no Democrat in a position to make a realistic challenge against him and that he had the “full backing” of the president, which includes campaigning and fundraising by the commander-in-chief.

That plan evidently blew up in Obama’s face so he resorted to bribery. Not only does Specter face stiff competition from Sestak in the Democratic primary, the Republican (former Congressman Pat Toomey) expected to make the general election leads both Specter and Sestak in head-to-head match-ups by about ten points.

White House Accused of Federal Crime in Specter, Bennet Races

By Jeffrey Lord on 2.22.10 @ 6:09AM

“Whoever solicits or receives … any….thing of value, in consideration of the promise of support or use of influence in obtaining for any person any appointive office or place under the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.” — 18 USC Sec. 211 — Bribery, Graft and Conflicts of Interest: Acceptance or solicitation to obtain appointive public office

 “In the face of a White House denial, U.S. Rep. Joe Sestak stuck to his story yesterday that the Obama administration offered him a “high-ranking” government post if he would not run against U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter in Pennsylvania’s Democratic primary.”

“D.C. job alleged as attempt to deter Romanoff”
—Denver Post
September 27, 2009

A bombshell has just exploded in the 2010 elections.

For the second time in five months, the Obama White House is being accused — by Democrats — of offering high ranking government jobs in return for political favors. What no one is reporting is that this is a violation of federal law that can lead to prison time, a fine or both, according to Title 18, Chapter 11, Section 211 of the United States Code.

The jobs in question? Secretary of the Navy and a position within the U.S. Agency for International Development.

The favor requested in return? Withdrawal from Senate challenges to two sitting United States Senators, both Democrats supported by President Obama. The Senators are Arlen Specter in Pennsylvania and Michael Bennet in Colorado.

On Friday, Pennsylvania Congressman Joe Sestak, the Democrat challenging Specter for re-nomination, launched the controversy by accusing the Obama White House of offering him a federal job in exchange for his agreeing to abandon his race against Specter.

In August of 2009, the Denver Post reported last September, Deputy White House Chief of Staff Jim Messina “offered specific suggestions” for a job in the Obama Administration to Colorado Democrat Andrew Romanoff, a former state House Speaker, if Romanoff would agree to abandon a nomination challenge to U.S. Senator Michael Bennet. Bennet was appointed to the seat upon the resignation of then-Senator Ken Salazar after Salazar was appointed by Obama to serve as Secretary of the Interior. According to the Post, the specific job mentioned was in the U.S. Agency for International Development. The Post cited “several sources who described the communication to The Denver Post.”

The paper also describes Messina as “President Barack Obama’s deputy chief of staff and a storied fixer in the White House political shop.” Messina’s immediate boss is White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel.

Sestak is standing by his story. Romanoff refused to discuss it with the Denver paper. In both instances the White House has denied the offers took place. The Sestak story in the Philadelphia Inquirer, reported by Thomas Fitzgerald, can be found here, While the Denver Post story, reported by Michael Riley, from September 27, 2009, can be read here.

In an interview with Philadelphia television anchor Larry Kane, who broke the story on Larry Kane: Voice of Reason, a Comcast Network show, Sestak says someone — unnamed — in the Obama White House offered him a federal job if he would quit the Senate race against Specter, the latter having the support of President Obama, Vice President Biden and, in the state itself, outgoing Democratic Governor Ed Rendell. Both Biden and Rendell are longtime friends of Specter, with Biden taking personal credit for convincing Specter to leave the Republican Party and switch to the Democrats. Rendell served as a deputy to Specter when the future senator’s career began as Philadelphia’s District Attorney, a job Rendell himself would eventually hold.

Asked Kane of Sestak in the Comcast interview:

“Is it true that you were offered a high ranking job in the administration in a bid to get you to drop out of the primary against Arlen Specter?”

“Yes” replied Sestak.

Trying to persuade someone by jawboning is one thing, but dangling something of value before someone as a quid pro quo is a whole different matter.  Commenting on the Judicial Watch report of Obama’s alleged bribery, The Obama File of Feb. 22 quotes a pertinent law:

“Whoever solicits or receives … any….thing of value, in consideration of the promise of support or use of influence in obtaining for any person any appointive office or place under the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.” — 18 USC Sec. 211 — Bribery, Graft and Conflicts of Interest:  Acceptance or solicitation to obtain appointive public office.

Update: Sestak White House scandal called ‘impeachable offense’

As more information is exposed about this.

If a Democratic member of Congress is to be believed, there’s someone in the Obama administration who has committed a crime – and if the president knew about it, analysts say it could be grounds for impeachment.

“This scandal could be enormous,” said Dick Morris, a former White House adviser to President Bill Clinton, on the Fox News Sean Hannity show last night. “It’s Valerie Plame only 10 times bigger, because it’s illegal and Joe Sestak is either lying or the White House committed a crime.

“Obviously, the offer of a significant job in the White House could not be made unless it was by Rahm Emanuel or cleared with Rahm Emanuel,” he said. If the job offer was high enough that it also had Obama’s apppoval, “that is a high crime and misdemeanor.”

“In other words, an impeachable offense?” Hannity asked.

“Absolutely,” said Morris.

The controversy revolves around an oft-repeated statement by Rep. Sestak, D-Pa., that he had been offered a job by the Obama administration in exchange for dropping out of the senatorial primary against Obama supporter Sen. Arlen Specter.

Sestak said he refused the offer. He continued in the Senate primary and defeated Specter for the Democratic nomination.

But Karl Rove, longtime White House adviser to President George W. Bush, said the charge is explosive because of federal law.

“This is a pretty extraordinary charge: ‘They tried to bribe me out of the race by offering me a job,’” he said on Greta Van Susteran’s “On the Record” program on the Fox News Channel. “Look, that’s a violation of the federal code: 18 USC 600 says that a federal official cannot promise employment, a job in the federal government, in return for a political act.

Why are Obama supporters self destructive?

Obama supporters like being lied to, they are so desperate for affection and starved for acceptance that in the face of blantant lies and deception, they are willing to stay in a bad relationship. Just like the self-abusers they are, they know no better, this is the way it has always been.

While the the coping style of those who are self-abusers or self destructive in nature, often experience profoundly disturbing emotions of fear, rejection and abandonment. Hope that fulfillment of unseen wants and perceived needs will relieve the acute and painful emotions that result from current life stresses in these individuals. Often like drug addiction, they need the euphoric next high, that feeling that they are important and their needs are being addressed. They merrily go along till the eventual letdown and again the emotional roller coaster ride begins all over again. Down at the bottom, and more rhetoric to embellish them with elation and well being till again, the bottom hits again. Still defending the fix, they need that fix. That’s what is important to them and nothing can deter them from that fix, Barack Hussein Obama is that fix, and he plays them like a fiddle.

They are easily swayed by emotion, as feelings overpower rational thinking as the next high is should be bigger and better then the next. So they overlook the obvious in hopes of the bigger bang. Just over the next hill, maybe next time, he didn’t say that, it’s no big deal.

Saddly, those that hit bottom and finally realize they’ve been played like a fiddle, often see that they have given up everything for nothing.

Here is a list of 150+ lies, that they have been told, but instead of waking up and getting out of an abusive relationship, they continue to believe in the abuser. It’s just their self destructive nature.

If being born in the United States makes Obama eligible – here is some bad news for Obotland

Title 8 and the 14th Amendment clearlt state the following; All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof Note: ‘subject to the jurisdiction thereof’

If being born in the United States makes Obama eligible, here is some bad news for Obotland. Being born in the United States does not automatically qualify everyone even a ‘NATIVE’ citizen stauts.

Immigration and Citizenship: Process and Policy fourth edition

Under Jus Soli, the following is written “The Supreme Court’s first holding on the sublect suggested that the court would give a restrictive reading to the phrase, potentially disqualifing significant number of persons born within the physical boundries of the nation. In Elk v. Wilkins 112 U.S. 94, 5 S.CT. 41, 28 L.ED. 643 (1884), the court ruled that native Indians were not U.S. citizens, even if they later severed their ties with their tribes. The words “subject to the jurisdiction thereof,” the court held, mean “not merely subjct in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction, and owing them direct and immediate allegiange.” Most Indians could not meet the test. “Indians born within the territorial limits of the United States, members of, and owing immediate allegiance to, one of the Indian Tribes, (an alien through dependent power,) although in a geographical sense born in the United States, are no more ‘born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof,’*** then the children of subjects of any foreign government born within the domain of that government ***. Id. at 102. It continues that Congress eventually passed legislation with the ‘Allotment Act of 1887, that conferred citizenship on many Indians. The fact remains, the Court held, complete and sole Jurisdiction.

As I have maintained before that being born anywhere in the United States, jurisdiction is required, sole and complete, and Barack Hussein Obama was already claimed by British jurisdiction under the British Nationailty Act of 1948, and as such fails the United states Constitutional requirement of a Natural Born Citizen. “When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.”

 Barack Hussein Obama did not have sole jurisdiction under the United States.

Considerations on the Nature and Extent of the Legislative Authority of the British Parliament, 1774.

Thus we see, that the subjects of the king, though they reside in foreign countries, still owe the duties of allegiance, and are still entitled to the advantages of it. They transmit to their posterity the privilege of naturalization, and all the other privileges which are the consequences of it.

Natural born subjects have a great variety of rights, which they acquire by being born in the king’s ligeance, and can never forfeit by any distance of place or time, but only by their own misbehaviour; the explanation of which rights is the principal subject of the law. 1. Bl. Com. 371.

So Barack Hussein Obama could not forfeit, relinquish, or dissolve the bonds that were  his condition, the condition that was given to him from his father, that Barack Hussein Obama freely admits that he is a British subject, governed by British law, at his birth and maintains till this day.

Title 8 and the 14th Amendment both state; All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

So explain how “not merely subjct in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction, and owing them direct and immediate allegiange.”

So to ‘what’ degree was Barack Hussein Obama under US Jurisdiction at birth? Knowing that he was already under British jurisdiction, and how that being only partial or to whatever degree you impose not being in conflict with “completely subject to”?

Congress has defined what a ‘Natural Born Citizen’ is

Congress defines NBC in 1839 – Congressional Bombshell

The following is a clear definition of a ‘Natural Born Citizen’ as one born to two parents (plural) in the House of Representitives

Journal of the House of Representatives of the United States, 1838-1839
MONDAY, January 28, 1839.

 Mr. Heman Allen submitted the following resolution; which was read, and debate arising, it was laid over, under the rule, viz:

Resolved, That the Committee on the Judiciary be instructed to inquire into the expediency of so amending the law on the subject of naturalization, as to exclude those from the privileges of natural–born citizens who are or shall be born of parents who have been removed, or shall remove, from the United States, and have taken or shall take the oath of allegiance to the Government in which they so reside, until such person shall become naturalized like other foreigners, agreeably to the laws that now do or hereafter may exist on that subject.

In plain simple english ‘natural–born citizens who are or shall be born of parents‘ from the United States.

Title 8 and the 14th Amendment both state;  All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

Immigration and Citizenship: Process and Policy fourth edition
Under Jus Soli, the following is written “The Supreme Court’s first holding on the sublect suggested that the court would give a restrictive reading to the phrase, potentially disqualifing significant number of persons born within the physical boundries of the nation. In Elk v. Wilkins 112 U.S. 94, 5 S.CT. 41, 28 L.ED. 643 (1884), the court ruled that native Indians were not U.S. citizens, even if they later severed their ties with their tribes. The words “subject to the jurisdiction thereof,” the court held, mean “not merely subjct in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction, and owing them direct and immediate allegiange.” Most Indians could not meet the test. “Indians born within the territorial limits of the United States, members of, and owing immediate allegiance to, one of the Indian Tribes, (an alien through dependent power,) although in a geographical sense born in the United States, are no more ‘born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof,’*** then the children of subjects of any foreign government born within the domain of that government ***. Id. at 102.
It continues that Congress eventually passed legislation with the ‘Allotment Act of 1887, that conferred citizenship on many Indians.

The fact remains, the Court held, complete and sole Jurisdiction. As I have held that being born anywhere in the United States, jurisdiction is required, sole and complete, and Barack Hussein Obama was already claimed by British jurisdiction under the British Nationailty Act of 1948, and as such fails the United states Constitutional requirement of a Natural Born Citizen.

Barack Obama has admitted that not only was his father a foreign national, but that he himself was a British Subject at birth. A British Subject is a foreign national and how can a foreign national be a ‘Natural Born Citizen’ as required by the United States Constitution?

So explain how “not merely subjct in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction, and owing them direct and immediate allegiange.”

So to ‘what’ degree was Barack Hussein Obama under US Jurisdiction at birth? Knowing that he was already under British jurisdiction, and how that being only partial or to whatever degree you impose not being in conflict with “completely subject to”?

Update Feb 15, 2010 – Explained so even an Obot can understand

What they are talking about is revoking citizenship of based on both parents being removed or renouncing their citizenship, by either taking an oath of allegiance to another country, and that their childern shall become like naturalized citizens. Due to their parents now having foreign inflence and possible conflict of interest in reationships.

But the fact remains, in ‘Natural Born Citizens’ are those children born to parents, and they used the terms ‘who are and shall be born’, present and future tense.

Too Late to Apologize: A Declaration

Obama says…

The illegal undocumented alien says…

I don’t question your faith. I already know your a Muslim. You yourself admitted it on ABC, George Stephanopoulos had to correct you. Your apology tour that started in Cairo, where again you lived as a Muslim in not one, not two, but three countries. Where you lied about America being a Muslim nation. You lied again, you prayed at the Mosque in Turkey. Religion is not something that normal people lie and decieve about. God will not be mocked!

As for your Citizenship, there is every indication based on the preponderance of evidence, your

As for questioning your Citizenship, there is no debate. Based on the preponderance of evidence and your admission, “As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.” Barack Hussein Obama is and maintains CITIZENSHIP as a BRITISH Subject, based on the British Nationality Act of 1948, which as a British subject was entitled to have a great variety of rights, which they acquire by being born in the king’s ligeance, and can never forfeit by any distance of place or time, but only by their own misbehaviour; the explanation of which rights is the principal subject of the law. 1. Bl. Com. 371.

The Natural Born Citizen ‘requirement’ [not a suggestion] of the United States Constitution is clear.

Vattel in Bk 1 Sec 212, states the following.  § 212. Citizens and natives.

The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.

Barack Hussein Obama, born of a foreign father, under the jurisdiction of foreign law [The British Nationality Act of 1948] regardless of his birth location is not/can not/nor ever be a ‘Natural Born Citizen of the United States while being a British subject at birth.

The Supreme Court of the United States, in The Venus, relied upon Vattel’s “Law of Nations” as the authority on citizenship issues.

The Venus, 12 U.S. (8 Cranch) 253, 1814

“Vattel, …is more explicit and more satisfactory on it [CITIZENSHIP ISSUES] than any other whose work has fallen into my hands, [Vattel] says, ‘the citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or indigenes, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.’ ”

Even the 14th Amendment and Titile 8 of the US Code state the following;

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.  And this would be ‘NATIVE’ citizenship as compared with “Natural Born’ citizenship.

The words “subject to the jurisdiction thereof,” the court held, mean “not merely subject in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction, and owing them direct and immediate allegiange.”

You lied about transparency and your policies. The day that you were sworn in, the very first thing you did was sign a executive order 13489 sealing all your records? Transparency again, no BS.  The healthcare debates on C-SPAN, again nothing but lies. When an active member of the United States Armed Forces questioned your eligibility, instead of manning up and proving your eligibility you hid, and revoked his orders, to have the case dismissed. A chicken**** way to pawning yourself as Commander-in-Chief.

I don’t question or doubt your ‘citizenship’, your a British subject/citizen.

Barack Hussein Obama, Mmmm, mmmm, nothing

JAKARTA — A statue of US President Barack Obama as a boy will be removed from a park in the Indonesian capital due to public opposition, officials said Friday, just weeks before Obama visits his old hometown.

The Jakarta governor’s office confirmed that the two-metre (six-foot) bronze would be removed from Menteng Park and placed at the nearby Menteng One primary school where Obama spent part of his childhood in the late 1960s. The decision comes after 56,500 people joined a page on social networking website Facebook calling for the statue to be removed and replaced by a memorial to an Indonesian identity.

Jakarta’s Bronzed Obama to Make A Move After Fauzi Bows

Bowing to public protests, Jakarta Governor Fauzi Bowo on Friday said a statue of Barack Obama as a child would be relocated from Menteng Park to a nearby elementary school where the American president once studied. 

The almost life-size statue of the young Obama was unveiled in Central Jakarta in December, but immediately drew criticism from people who said there were more appropriate national figures to be celebrated in bronze. 

A Facebook group, which has attracted tens of thousands of members, has been demanding the statue’s removal. 

“I approve the people’s initiative to move the statue,” Fauzi said, adding that the city would relocate the statue as soon as possible to the school on Jalan Besuki in Menteng. 

Obama, who spent four years in Jakarta as a child with his mother and Indonesian stepfather, is expected to visit his old school during his trip to the country next month. 

“It will be ready,” Fauzi said of the school and the statue. 

The work of sculptor Edi Chaniago, the statue depicts a 10-year-old Obama smiling and holding a butterfly in his outstretched hand. Obama went to the Besuki public elementary school in Menteng before he returned to the United States in 1971. 

Jakarta-based US businessman Ron Mullers, chairman of the nonprofit Friends of Obama Foundation, which had the statue built at a cost of Rp 100 million ($10,700), told the Jakarta Globe that he was not upset by the decision. 

“If the city administration said so, then we are up for it. They were the ones who approved the location in the first place,” he said. 

The Facebook group Turunkan Patung Barack Obama di Taman Menteng (Take Down the Barack Obama Statue in Menteng Park), which currently has 56,541 members, filed a legal action against the city administration on Jan. 22 after they received no response to their request for a formal hearing with the governor and the City Council. 

Abdul Hadi Lubis, the group’s legal counsel, told the Globe that the group wanted action more than words. 

“We will follow through with the lawsuit because it has been filed,” Abdul said, adding that the group may yet decide to withdraw the suit once the statue had actually been relocated. 

Heru Nugroho, the founder of the Facebook campaign to remove the statue, praised the decision, according to The Associated Press. 

“It’s good — a little too late,” he said. “But I appreciate it.”

If you give a Doofus the Presidency

If you give a Doofus the Presidency,

He’s going to expect you believe him.When you ask him tough questions, he’ll tell you tall tales.

When he’s finished with tales, he’ll smile with glee.

Looking for others to blame and to smear, make them your villains, with him if you dare.

Then onto the business, he wants to control. It’s for our own good, how often we’re told.

He’s finished with the auto makers, now crippled and hurt. Now, Wall Street and banks, securities and more. He’ll sweep up the bonuses with taxes sky high, till everyone’s paying right through the eye. He might get carried away with sweep and control till everything’s all under the Government control. He may even end up owning healthcare, forbid.

 When he’s done, he’ll say it was necessary you see. It’s the evil insurance companies, we’ll get even you’ll see. He’ll fix the unemployment crisis the same way too, for him with a plan and a scheme or two. He’ll fudge the numbers and lie just the same. He’ll make himself look good as the bearer of change. With hope for something and fluff for spice, the tales he’ll spin will sound rather nice.

 He’ll ask you to believe with rhetoric and woe. As the kool-aide only lasts so long you know.  He’ll draw a new plan, and say with glee, he’s reinvented himself for you and for me. The prompters in place for the speeches he’ll give, it’s all about him don’t you know.

 He turns to his friend’s, now quivering with fright, the mid-terms are coming and it doesn’t look nice. Under the bus or out on their ear, many of his followers developing real pink slip fear.

  With the settling dust, and the stench from his time, to clean up his mess will take quite a time. Blaming others once more, as he’s done along, “it’s not my fault”

He’ll hang his achievements and lack thereof, by himself all alone admiring with glee the work that he wrought for you and for me.

  And chances are if you give a Doofus the Presidency , he’s going to expect you believe him.

WSJ calles Obama a ‘sock puppet’

Somethings ate just too good to pass up. Here is an article posted by the Wall Street Journal

Article from the Wall Street Journal Forum, 1/28/10, by Eddie Sessions:

 “I have this theory about Barack Obama. I think he’s led a kind of make-believe life in which money was provided and doors were opened because at some point early on somebody or some group took a look at this tall, good looking, half-white, half-black, young man with an exotic African/Muslim name and concluded he could be guided toward a life in politics where his facile speaking skills could even put him in the White House. 

 In a very real way, he has been a young man in a very big hurry. Who else do you know has written two memoirs before the age of 45? “Dreams of My Father” was published in 1995 when he was only 34 years old. The “Audacity of Hope” followed in 2006. If, indeed, he did write them himself. There are some who think that his mentor and friend, Bill Ayers, a man who calls himself a “communist with a small ‘c’” was the real author. 

 His political skills consisted of rarely voting on anything that might be deemed controversial.. He went from a legislator in the llinois legislature to the Senator from that state because he had the good fortune of having Mayor Daley’s formidable political machine at his disposal. 
 

He was in the  U.S.. Senate so briefly that his bid for the presidency was either an act of astonishing self-confidence or part of some greater game plan that had been determined before he first stepped foot in the Capital.

How, many must wonder, was he selected to be a 2004 keynote speaker at the Democrat convention that nominated John Kerry when virtually no one had ever even heard of him before? 
 

He outmaneuvered Hillary Clinton in primaries. He took Iowa by storm. A charming young man, an anomaly in the state with a very small black population, he oozed “cool” in a place where agriculture was the antithesis of cool. He dazzled the locals. And he had an army of volunteers drawn to a charisma that hid any real substance. 

 And then he had the great good fortune of having the Republicans select one of the most inept candidates for the presidency since Bob Dole. And then John McCain did something crazy. He picked Sarah Palin, an unknown female governor from the very distant state of  Alaska . It was a ticket that was reminiscent of 1984’s Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro and they went down to defeat. 

 The mainstream political media fell in love with him. It was a schoolgirl crush with febrile commentators like Chris Mathews swooning then and now over the man. The venom directed against McCain and, in particular, Palin, was extraordinary. 

Now, nearly a full year into his first term, all of those gilded years leading up to the White House have left him unprepared to be President. Left to his own instincts, he has a talent for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. It swiftly became a joke that he could not deliver even the briefest of statements without the ever-present Tele-Prompters. 

 Far worse, however, is his capacity to want to “wish away” some terrible realities, not the least of which is the Islamist intention to destroy America and enslave the West. Any student of history knows how swiftly Islam initially spread. It knocked on the doors of Europe , having gained a foothold in Spain .. 

 The great crowds that greeted him at home or on his campaign “world tour” were no substitute for having even the slightest grasp of history and the reality of a world filled with really bad people with really bad intentions.

Oddly and perhaps even inevitably, his political experience, a cakewalk, has positioned him to destroy the Democrat Party’s hold on power in Congress because in the end it was never about the Party. It was always about his communist ideology, learned at an early age from family, mentors, college professors, and extreme leftist friends and colleagues. 

Obama’s a man who could deliver a snap judgment about a Boston police officer who arrested an “obstreperous” Harvard professor-friend, but would warn Americans against “jumping to conclusions” about a mass murderer at Fort  Hood who shouted “Allahu Akbar.” The absurdity of that was lost on no one.

  He has since compounded this by calling the Christmas bomber “an isolated extremist” only to have to admit a day or two later that he was part of an al Qaeda plot. 

 He is a man who could strive to close down our detention facility at Guantanamo even though those released were known to have returned to the battlefield against  America .. He could even instruct his Attorney General to afford the perpetrator of 9/11 a civil trial when no one else would ever even consider such an obscenity. And he is a man who could wait three days before having anything to say about the perpetrator of yet another terrorist attack on Americans and then have to elaborate on his remarks the following day because his first statement was so lame. 

The pattern repeats itself. He either blames any problem on the Bush administration or he naively seeks to wish away the truth. 
Knock, knock. Anyone home? Anyone there? Barack Obama exists only as the sock puppet of his handlers, of the people who have maneuvered and manufactured this pathetic individual’s life. 

When anyone else would quickly and easily produce a birth certificate, this man has spent over a million dollars to deny access to his. Most other documents, the paper trail we all leave in our wake, have been sequestered from review. He has lived a make-believe life whose true facts remain hidden. 

 We laugh at the ventriloquist’s dummy, but what do you do when the dummy is President of the United States of America ?”

The idiot did it again. He bowed to the Tampa mayor

Who doesn’t Barack Obama bow to?

What do you think the media would be saying if Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43, Regan, or ANY other Preident displayed a complete disregard of protocol.  See more of the Usurper showing disgrace and lack of proper Presidential protocol. https://nobarack08.wordpress.com/2009/11/12/a-picture-is-worth/
