Democrat party hack and Bill Clinton sycophant, Lanny Davis, has the chutzpah to assert in a Wall Street Journal op-ed piece: “We liberals need to reclaim the Democratic Party.”[2] Davis defends Clinton today as he did during the former president’s impeachment saga, despite the fact that Clinton was and is the equivalent of Tiger Woods morally. Davis and his ilk are the problem, not the solution. He and Obama chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, are birds of a feather. They are the worst of the Democratic Party.
I began as a Democrat, yet I am proud to be an Independent today, as I have been for more than 20 years. The ranks of Independents are growing dramatically with each election, as they abandon the Democratic Party.[3] It is people like Davis and Emanuel who have turned lots of us away from our former party. He and his leftist Democrats do not represent us, and never did. As Ronald Reagan said—who was a former Democrat too: “I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. The party left me.”[4]
Davis has the gall to say: “[W]e allowed the party of Bill Clinton and Barack Obama to morph into the party of George McGovern.” This is hypocrisy at its lowest. The party of Clinton and Obama is the party of McGovern. While I did not vote for McGovern—and I never voted for his opponent either, Richard M. Nixon, even though I hail from his home state of California[5]—at least McGovern is a decent and honorable person, and I respect him. For Davis to defame him simply underscores what a low-life Davis is.
The U.S. Senate triumph of Scott Brown in Massachusetts marked the beginning of the end of Barack Obama as an American politician. Assuming the elections of 2010 and 2012 follow suit, the president is at best a lame duck. With the demise of ObamaCare, he will simply wait for the end of his presidency in January 2013, and little more—like Lyndon Johnson did as the elections of 1968 approached. Both Obama and Johnson share the common heritage of failed presidencies and unwinnable wars, in Vietnam and Afghanistan.[6]
The “Change We Can Believe In” is the end of the Obama presidency. He has lied to us repeatedly, and he has deceived us—like Johnson and Bill Clinton did—and it is time for him to go. The handwriting is on the wall: the Obama presidency is unsalvageable. Its far-Left tenets are not in step with mainstream America. The root causes of this lie with the president’s character and his core beliefs. He is a disciple of the far-Left; and Weather Underground co-founder Bill Ayers and Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. are truly his “soul brothers.” He has lied to us about them too. What most Americans care about, and believe in, are an anathema to these people.
There is nothing positive that Obama has done since he assumed the presidency; and things are likely to get a whole lot worse before he leaves office. It has been said: “Jimmy Carter may be heading to #2 on the [list of] all-time worst presidents in American history, thanks to ‘O.’” This is an understatement. When history is written, Barack Obama may be hated more than George W. Bush has been by the Democrats, more than Bill and Hillary Clinton have been hated by the Republicans, more than Nixon was hated by the Democrats, and even more than Johnson was hated by a broad swath of the American electorate . . . and the list goes on and on. Obama may emerge as the most hated president in history.
Read (or reread) his book, “Dreams from My Father.” The president’s beliefs are set forth in his own words, which were written before political “handlers” filtered those words for public consumption. He has never denounced what he wrote.[7] He grew up in Hawaii and Indonesia, and he does not share traditional American values. With the election of Scott Brown, and the earlier election victories of Robert F. McDonnell and Chris Christie to the governorships of Virginia and New Jersey, the American people are saying no to Obama and the Democrats. Soon, it will be time to ride them out of town on a rail, politically.[8]

His father, Birch Bayh, was a distinguished senator from Indiana too (see, e.g., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birch_Bayh), and a friend of the senator for whom I worked.
Fund states:
My guess is that those on the far-Left will never get it, because they are “true believers” and blinded. The same thing is true of those on the far-Right, which is why I am an Independent and have been for 20 years or so. Both Bayhs represent the type of politicians whom I like and respect—and the best of political Washington—not “flame-throwers” from the far reaches of either end of the political spectrum.
Fund adds:
Not as long as Barack Obama is president, because he is as far-Left as one can get, or certainly close. Read (or reread) his book, “Dreams from My Father,” if you have any doubts.

But they won’t, because the “loonies” at the far-Left of the party have taken over, and Obama is one of them. Despite the fact that he “jettisoned” his friends Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright during the campaign—which is what politicians running for the highest offices generally do, when their friends are perceived as “baggage”—the three of them were and presumably still are simpatico in terms of their core beliefs.

She adds:

Noonan uses the term “young progressive” more than once, presumably referring to Democrats of all persuasions, as well as those on the far-Left. She is ‘politically correct” in doing so, but she needs to learn that “political correctness” is in the process of going out of fashion like Obama. It is utter nonsense, like the fraud of “global warming.”
Next, she says:
She seems to have her head planted firmly in the ground. Obama’s problems are endless. Indeed, it can be argued that he has done nothing right, beginning with his acceptance of the Nobel “peace” prize in the midst of two wars, when he had done nothing at all to earn any honors.

Noonan’s “two growing problems” for Obama are:
1. “The president can’t be a hope purveyor while he’s a doom merchant”
He doesn’t know any better. He has failed at everything in life, except being a professional politician. See, e.g., https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2009/12/05/is-barack-obama-a-racist/
2. “[A] growing credibility gap”—”[N]othing he said [about ObamaCare] sounded true”
Wake up, Peggy Dear, the guy is a phony, and nothing more. A friend of mine in New York City believes that when Obama comes crashing down from Mount Olympus, it may be a horrible spectacle—like people wondering whether Nixon would crack over Watergate. The fact is that Nixon had a decent family background growing up, with supportive parents. Obama never had a father, except for a month when he was 10; his mother and he were apart for long periods of time; and his only stability consisted of his maternal grandparents, “Toot” and “Gramps.”

Noonan concludes by suggesting that Obama is a disaster, which of course is true—but we have only seen the tip of that iceberg so far.

See http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/04/AR2010030404040.html
Before discussing it, one needs to understand that government at all levels does not work—except for the Pentagon and our truly outstanding military. It is just that simple. Anyone who has worked in and with the federal government knows this in spades. Hence, ObamaCare, if it ever becomes law, is apt to be a total disaster, like Obama is. He may be known for generations as its father, and hated for it.
Leave aside the wars—and Afghanistan is only apt to get worse (see, e.g., https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2009/12/26/obama-in-afghanistan-doomed-from-the-start)—and the economy that will get much worse too, ObamaCare is the defining moment for its namesake. As Americans learn more and more about this government monstrosity, they will come to hate him. He may achieve, as predicted, a status of the most-hated president in American history.
Krauthammer concludes:
Again, Republicans should join with like-minded Independents and throw out Democrats in November’s elections, and initiate the impeachment process. Only by taking such bold actions will the abuses of power be curbed.

If anyone has any doubts about the damage that Obama is doing, it is useful to understand that his policies are projected to add $9.7 trillion to U.S. debt by 2020. Yet, this is merely the tip of the iceberg of reasons to remove him from office, before he does any more damage to this great country.

I opposed it, and had arguments with my son—who is more conservative than I am—because I believed we would be fighting to make the Middle East safe for Israel, which I did not feel was worth the loss of American lives or the likely quagmire that would result from our invasion.
See, e.g., http://www.naegele.com/documents/DemocratsIraq.pdf and http://www.naegele.com/documents/Democrats-PartyOfRetreatDefeat.pdf
In the end, I supported Bush, and admired the fact that he overruled the Pentagon and ordered the troop “surge,” which General David Petraeus and John McCain had championed. This is their victory too.
I left the Democratic Party years ago because I believed it had become the party of retreat and defeat; and Lyndon Johnson’s micromanagement and loss of the Vietnam War remains a shining example of that. Friends of mine were killed in that senseless war, along with at least a million Vietnamese, even though it might have been won.
Fast forward to today, and the totally pathetic Democrats have been claiming the victory in Iraq as their own. The national buffoon, Joe Biden, stated in a recent interview with Larry King:
“[T]his could be one of the great achievements of this administration.”
See http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1002/10/lkl.01.html and https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2009/12/26/obama-in-afghanistan-doomed-from-the-start/#comment-169; see also http://www.naegele.com/documents/BretStephens-IraqisEmbraceDemocracy-DoWe.pdf
Really? First, Biden wanted to carve up Iraq three ways: part for the Sunnis, part for the Shiites, and part for the Kurds. Second, our “Community-Organizer-In-Chief” Obama was opposed to the war completely; and of course he opposed Bush’s “surge” that essentially won the war.
The Journal’s editorial adds:
“it was unfortunate to hear Mr. Obama, with the polls barely closed and no votes counted, promptly declare the election makes it possible that ‘by the end of next year, all U.S. troops will be out of Iraq.'”
How can anyone be surprised about this? Obama is a fool, and a feckless naïf, and a tragic Shakespearean figure who will be forgotten and consigned to the dustheap of history. His naïveté has been matched by his overarching narcissism; and he is more starry-eyed and “dangerous” than Jimmy Carter. His presidency will be considered a sad watershed in history.

ObamaCare is a travesty, which the American people oppose; and this abuse of power may give rise to an impeachment effort. If Obama does anything to thwart our victory in Iraq, he should be run out of office on a rail, politically.

Obama Moves To Gut Our Strategy of Nuclear Deterrence
Barack Obama is taking unilateral actions to limit when the United States would use nuclear weapons, even in self-defense, which is dangerous and irresponsible.
As the New York Times’ article states:

As much as Obama might like to believe otherwise, in more than 2,000 years, the following passage from the Bible has never come true:
Isaiah 2:4 (King James Version)
We do not live in a “Mary Poppins” world.
George W. Bush kept American safe and strong; however, there are serious questions whether Obama is building on and not diminishing that strength. The idea that the U.S. and Russia would replace the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (Start) with a new agreement that would cut each side’s nuclear arsenal is absurd. The Russians cannot be trusted; and Obama’s weakness is on display when he cuts any deals with Russia’s dictator-for-life Putin. It is equivalent to appeasing Stalin or Hitler; and it weakens the United States vis-à-vis China and our other adversaries.
See, e.g., https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2010/02/09/russias-putin-is-a-killer/ and http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article7085041.ece (“Conflict between Russia and the US is unfathomable”—which is a naive, unrealistic and irresponsible statement)

Jews Turn Against Obama—And The New State Of Palestine
Ronald Kessler, writing for Newsmax.com, has described the “stunning turnaround, [in which] President Obama has lost roughly half of his support among Jewish voters.”
See http://newsmax.com/RonaldKessler/Obama-Jews-support-Wright/2010/04/28/id/357172
First, Jewish and non-Jewish Americans should have read Obama’s book, “Dreams from My Father” before the 2008 elections. Had they done so, they might have been shocked with respect to a whole host of issues.
Second, as stated in another blog article of mine (see https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2010/02/20/israels-senseless-killings-and-war-with-iran), I believe Obama views Israel as the oppressor and the Palestinians as the oppressed, much as he viewed apartheid in South Africa; and that he views Netanyahu as the embodiment or personification of that oppression.
See also https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2009/12/05/is-barack-obama-a-racist/
Third, Kessler quotes one Jewish leader as saying: “[Obama] is worse than Jimmy Carter was when he was president. . . . The majority of Jews now realize that this guy is bad for Israel, let alone bad for America.”
From the perspective of Netanyahu and some Jews, this may be true. However, in terms of the long-term goal of a lasting peace in the Middle East, it may not be true. Both Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama have sought genuine peace between the Israelis and Palestinians, unlike Netanyahu.
Fourth, AIPAC, other groups (including media organizations) and individuals have been “shilling” for Netanyahu and his lackeys. Yet, Leah Rabin—who blamed Netanyahu for her husband’s assassination—saw “only doom for the Israeli-Palestinian peace process” with Netanyahu at Israel’s helm; and of course she was correct.
Fifth, Obama, David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel are smart enough to know that Jewish voters will be back in the fold of voting for Obama by 2012. Historically, American Jews have not voted for Republican presidential candidates, even when they were stronger supporters of Israel than the Democrats were (e.g., George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush).
Sixth, and most importantly, Obama may join with the Europeans in declaring and recognizing a new state of “Palestine,” which would shake up the Middle East, and Obama would be hailed around the world. It would be a bold move, which none of his predecessors had the guts or political savvy to accomplish. Among other things, it would constitute recognition of the fact that Obama and the Europeans do not need Israel’s “permission” to bring it into fruition.
Netanyahu has few true non-Jewish friends in the world. Obama will seek to isolate him, and make him look like a fool; and Obama will have the whole world with him. To take down Netanyahu, to impress the world that he is “even-handed” with respect to the Israeli-Palestinian issues, and to galvanize the world into a solution that produces a Palestinian state once and for all, is “win-win” for Obama and a political triumph of enormous proportions, and he knows it.
It would be a masterstroke, and truly brilliant. Bit-by-bit Obama and his allies will peel off those who detest or hate Netanyahu. Indeed, Netanyahu is the perfect “foil” for Obama, and a “sacrificial lamb.” At most, lip service is being paid to Netanyahu and his supporters. He will be humiliated even more, and marginalized politically and shown to be irrelevant, and then ousted. Obama rolled over the GOP in the process of passing ObamaCare, and he may do the same thing with financial reform. Netanyahu will be “small potatoes,” and easy pickings for him.
Also, Obama will be making the case that he is a “friend of Israel,” all the while sticking the shiv into Netanyahu until he is gone. By humiliating Netanyahu, and making him look like an utter fool and evil, and by destroying him—and having the Israeli people call for his ouster, or forcing him to resign—Netanyahu becomes nothing more than a convenient foil or pawn in global politics, which after all is Obama’s playing field.
The destruction of Netanyahu means nothing to him. It is akin to jettisoning Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright when they stood as impediments to his goals. They were expendable; and Netanyahu is way beyond being expendable. He is hated, which means that getting rid of him is “pleasurable” for Obama.
If the state of Palestine is created, and if the world lines up behind it—and it is an enormous political triumph, which the mere creation of it will be—Obama will be basking in a greater glow than when ObamaCare was signed into law. Imagine Obama and world leaders descending on Jerusalem for the founding of the new Palestinian state. Obama understands fully what the stakes are, and how it will cement his place in history.
Netanyahu is a cipher. He can play ball, which I do not believe his narcissism will allow, or he can watch while Obama and the world “steamroll” him. Far too often, Jews have marched in “lock step,” and that is what Netanyahu is asking them to do now, like lemmings marching to the sea. He is playing on their worst fears, and their loyalty to Israel. He is a narcissist and a demagogue, who—down deep—only truly cares about himself and his own political ambitions. This is the story of his life.

Obama Bows To Putin

However, when Obama bows to Russia’s dictator-for-life Putin, it puts America’s well being and vital national security needs on the line. The latest example is the new START treaty, which is unnecessary and not in America’s best interests, and the U.S. Senate should reject it.
We do not need such an agreement with the Russians—who cannot be trusted under any circumstances—other than existing agreements to safeguard their nuclear weapons so they do not fall into the hands of terrorists. The Russian arsenal today is nothing like the Soviet arsenal at the height of its powers and prowess, because Russia has been suffering economically.
Secretary of Defense Robert Gates is pleading for the treaty’s ratification by the Senate.
See, e.g., http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703339304575240164048611360.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEFTTopOpinion#articleTabs%3Darticle
He began dealing with the Soviets in 1970, not the Russians; and the “Evil Empire” was subsequently “disemboweled.” It is no more; and Russia today is little more than a Third World country, and a mere shadow of what the U.S.S.R. once was. It is in America’s best interests to keep it that way.
None of this “cooperation” with Putin and his thugs prevented them from invading Georgia, and occupying portions of that country to this day. Having left the Olympic games in Beijing to begin and direct his war, Putin is the last person on the face of this earth to be trusted. We should be doing whatever we can to isolate and ultimately bring down his regime, not cooperate with it.
With all due respect for Gates, whom I like, he is trying to sell a bad treaty that the U.S. does not need. If it is ratified—and hopefully it is not—it should be scrapped on day one by the next Republican administration.
Also, Putin is rubbing Obama’s nose in it, by blocking any meaningful sanctions against Iran.
See, e.g., http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100513/ts_nm/us_russia_iran_us_1
Unfortunately, Obama’s naïveté knows no bounds when it comes to the Russians, or he would have learned not to trust Putin at all, who left George W. Bush’s side at the Olympics in Beijing to launch his war against the Georgians.
Putin needs to be removed from the world’s stage permanently; and the sooner that this is accomplished, the better.

It was probably only a matter of time before such a chorus would begin growing, to give Obama and his lackeys cover while they try to cut our defense spending.

What Would Reagan Do?
The Wall Street Journal has a fine article by David Malpass entitled, “The Panic, Round Two: What Would Reagan Do?” that is worth reading.
See http://www.naegele.com/documents/DavidMalpass-ThePanicRoundTwo-WhatWouldReaganDo.pdf
Yes, the panics are upon us—and there will be many of them globally—as America and the world sink deeper into what economic historians will describe 20-40 years from now as the “Great Depression II,” or by some similar label.
See, e.g., https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2009/12/16/the-great-depression-ii
David Malpass is right in asking what would Reagan do, because the former president—certainly at the top of his game—might have figured out a way of getting us out of this mess, or of somehow making it less onerous than it will be. After all, he was a creature of the “Great Depression I,” and he learned its lessons well.
Unemployment peaked at 10.8 percent in December 1982, two years after his election—which was higher than any time since the first Great Depression—then dropped during the rest of Reagan’s presidency. But facts and figures do not tell the whole story of the Reagan presidency by any means: his personality and leadership qualities, and his ability to instill hope and optimism.
See, e.g., http://www.usnews.com/money/business-economy/articles/2009/08/27/is-unemployment-the-worst-since-the-great-depression.html
One must remember too that Paul Volcker was Chairman of the Fed, and he contributed mightily to keeping the economy on an even keel, and preventing runaway inflation. He was followed by Alan Greenspan, who never saw the Housing Crisis coming, and he testified to that before a House committee. Or, as Giulio Tremonti, Italy’s Minister of Economy and Finance, put it: “Greenspan was considered a master. Now we must ask ourselves whether he is not, after [Osama] bin Laden, the man who hurt America the most.” That speaks volumes, in terms of the human suffering domestically and globally, which Greenspan launched.
See http://www.americanbanker.com/issues/173_212/-365185-1.html; see also http://www.philstockworld.com/2009/10/11/greenspan’s-legacy-more-suffering-to-come/
Implicit in Malpass’ fine article is the fact that Congress does not know what it is doing. Most politicians have zero training in economics, and do not understand it, and have no appreciation for economic history. They are simply interested in getting elected and reelected, and wielding power while they have it.
Malpass adds correctly:
However, Ronald Reagan’s leadership was broader and more important than that. He instilled confidence and optimism when there had been little or none, across the board (e.g., national security, economics).
See also https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2010/03/20/ronald-reagan-and-john-f-kennedy-a-question-of-character/
Sadly, Reagan’s leadership and vision are lacking now, as wrong-headed politicians lead us father down the path toward financial ruin, dashing the hopes and dreams of Americans and their counterparts worldwide. However, the days of reckoning are upon us. America and other nations are in uncharted waters; and their politicians may face backlashes from disillusioned and angry constituents that are unprecedented in modern times. We are beginning to see that now.
Also, Barack Obama has zero experience with respect to economic and a plethora of other issues. Americans should read (or reread) his “Dreams from My Father,” and realize that he is one of the most “uneducated” presidents in American history, in terms of real-world issues. This is not said by way of condemnation, but as a fact.
See, e.g., https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2009/12/05/is-barack-obama-a-racist/
At best he is an academic. Perhaps more importantly, he and his advisers are “a bunch of academics” and ideologues, who have pre-set ideas about how the world should function, which do not square with reality. In many ways, they are the most ill-equipped individuals to confront and understand the “Great Depression II,” much get us through it.
I cannot think of another group that is so ill-equipped to deal with critical issues facing America and the world (e.g., two wars, the risk of any EMP or other devastating attack, North Korea, China, Russia, Iran, the Great Depression II). Fortunately, no calamities hit the Clinton years. We are not and will not be so lucky this time around.
Lastly, Ronald Reagan was blessed—yes, blessed by God. He had innate wisdom and a reservoir of faith, confidence, optimism and good will, and collective life experiences that allowed him to do just the right thing at the right time. Clearly, the fall of the “Evil Empire” was a shining achievement, but there were many many others too.

Obama’s Katrina, Or Worse?
I am a critic of Barack Obama’s policies in many respects (e.g., national security, fiscal policies, ObamaCare). However, he is being blamed for the Gulf Coast oil spill, just as George W. Bush was blamed for the government’s response to Hurricane Katrina, and I believe it is wrong to blame either president.
Bush was right to fly over Katrina and view the devastation from the air, rather than create chaos on the ground while traffic was tied up by presidential motorcades, etc. In the end, his response was more than adequate, and he was unjustly maligned. He did not cause Katrina, any more than Obama caused the oil spill.
Yes, the oil spill should not have happened, but it makes no sense to shut down offshore drilling in its wake. We need oil, and offshore drilling happens every day around the world without a glitch. The Gulf Coast oil spill is a tragic aberration, just as Katrina and the 1989 Exxon Valdez spill off the Alaskan coast were enormous tragedies.
. . .
However, if the Democrats tarred Bush for Katrina, the GOP has every right to tar Obama for the Gulf Coast spill. There is political symmetry to that happening. 🙂

These are the most challenging of times for even the most astute of America’s presidents, yet our “Community-Organizer-In-Chief” has no experience whatsoever. Moreover, his core beliefs were shaped by his life in Hawaii and Indonesia, and his gut instincts are not in sync with those of mainstream America. He is a “representative at large of the world community” precisely because he never set foot on the U.S. mainland until he attended Occidental College in Los Angeles.
It is truly as if he was from another planet at times. Or, in Rabinowitz’s words: “He is the alien in the White House.” Read (or reread) his “Dreams from My Father,” and this will be ever more evident. Until recently, he has been an emperor with “new clothes,” but now we realize fully—as we should have before the elections of 2008—”his distant relation to the country he was about to lead.”

Collapse And Overt Racism
All one has to do is read the brazenly-racist comments beneath an online Yahoo! News article about Tiger Woods’ performance at the 2010 Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament—which on a second reading, were assiduously scrubbed by Yahoo!—to realize that many Americans are rejoicing at his collapse. The gloves have come off, and overt racist remarks are being applied to him by both women and men. No longer is he the “golden boy” of golf that he once was; and he may never regain his reputation or consistent playing ability.

The Obama Strategy Has Lost The Consent Of The Governed
Americans are in open rebellion against the policies of Barack Obama; and before too long, they may be in open rebellion against the man himself, just as they were against another war-time president, Lyndon Johnson, who could not run for reelection in 1968. Will the same fate befall Obama, owing to the Afghan war, the U.S. economy, ObamaCare—which a majority of Americans want repealed—and a whole host of other issues?
Fouad Ajami addresses these tough issues in a hard-hitting Wall Street Journal op-ed piece, which is worth reading. Among other things, he states:”[Obama] had never run anything in his entire life.” Perhaps most importantly, he had never been truly successful at anything other than writing, speaking, campaigning, politics and getting elected—being a professional politician. However, a growing number of Americans have enormous contempt for the political class, and for good reasons; and Obama may become the “poster child” for their anger.
Ajami adds:

Let’s face it, Obama is pure scum, and probably the worst president in American history. He should be thrown out of office now, rather than waiting for the elections of 2012.
In the process of criticizing the economic policies of former President George W. Bush and the current “partisan minority” in Congress, Obama has asked Republicans to drop their economic “blockade” of additional wasteful spending by his administration and the Democrats. How truly outrageous! He even has the gall to say: “”It took nearly a decade to dig the hole that we’re in.”
If he had even a modicum of knowledge about economics, he would know that Alan Greenspan is the “father” of the mess we are in; and that, if anything, Obama has made things worse. Hopefully the GOP blocks anything and everything that he tries to put through. The signs of social and economic waste are abundant already.

There is little doubt that Obama will go down in history as America’s worst president and its greatest failure as a leader.
What is crystal clear from the Post article is that Obama is a fool and a feckless naïf, who must be driven from the presidency using every constitutional means possible. Among other things, the Post article reports:
This oaf is apparently unaware that the greatest threat to the United States and the American people—with respect to whom he swore an oath to defend and protect—comes in the form of an EMP Attack that might be launched from a barge off our Atlantic or Pacific coasts, or in the Gulf of Mexico or the Sea of Cortez.
It has been estimated that only 30 million Americans would survive such an attack; and it is criminal for Obama to say (or think) that “[w]e can absorb a terrorist attack.” Aside from his conclusion being preposterous and utter nonsense militarily, it is dangerous, irresponsible and traitorous!

And this is the same Barack Obama who was raised in Hawaii and Indonesia, and never set foot on the American mainland until he attended Occidental College in Los Angeles and Columbia University in New York City, where he admits having been a “Junkie” or close to it:
This is the same Barack Obama who has been systematically destroying America—and who should be ousted from the presidency as soon as humanly possible, before he can do any more damage.

While there are plenty of raving narcissists in Washington and elsewhere in the country, Obama may take the honors in that regard. He states in the Rolling Stone interview:
For openers, he did not prevent an economic depression, but has contributed to it. He did not “restore the financial system.” That is absurd. And his Afghan war is proving to be a failure, and quite possibly our second Vietnam. Also, he takes pride in “resetting our relations with Russia and potentially having a new START treaty by the end of the year,” which is equally absurd.
See, e.g., https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2010/02/09/russias-putin-is-a-killer/
Throughout the interview, he keeps referring to “progressives” and “the progressive community” and “progressive supporters,” which is a ruse and nothing more than names for the far-Leftist Democrats, of which Obama is one. They are no more “progressive” than Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were; however, he is very sensitive about them because they are deserting him. The Republicans, Independents and members of the Tea Party movement are gone already. Now his supporters are leaving too.
Next, Obama addressed the fraud of so-called “global warming,” “greenhouse gases,” and “climate change”:
This too is absurd.
See, e.g., https://naegeleblog.wordpress.com/2010/01/01/barack-obama-america’s-second-emperor/
He added:
His detractors, who constitute a majority of the American people, believe just the opposite. Put succinctly, Obama is evil personified, which is becoming clearer with each day that passes.
Lastly, he said:
Wonderful! Hopefully all of them stand (or sit) on the sidelines, and watch the Republicans, Independents, Tea Party members, and disenchanted Democrats triumph. The sooner this happens, the sooner he will be gone forever—and consigned permanently to the dustbin of history, where he belongs.

Like Jimmy Carter before him, Obama has vilified America and trashed what is good about her, instead of extolling her virtues and building on her greatness as the revered Ronald Reagan did. Reagan put the ghosts and shame of the Vietnam War to rest. Obama wants to drive this wonderful country back to similar days, and seems ashamed of America’s greatness.
