ROME BURNED & NERO PLAYED: THE WORLD BURNS & OBAMA PLAYS

In the face of what is perhaps the most devastating disaster in the history of Japan, and certainly one of the most cataclysmic events in modern times, and with the Middle East in turmoil as the dominoes begin to fall one by one, and Islamic revolution takes the region by storm as it competes with pro-democracy movements for power, and as a ruthless dictator unleashes his full demonic fury on his own people in order to stay in power with the forces of the United States, Great Britain, and France waiting idly offshore for orders to intervene and prevent genocide, and the US economic system in deep erosion and meltdown (yet called by this administration and its media allies a recovery); the current occupant of the White House is AWOL, oblivious to what is happening around him, and seemingly incapable of the decisive leadership necessary to take action on all of these fronts as would be required and expected by the Commander in Chief of the greatest armed forces, and leader of the free world. But where is Barack Obama? He is busy playing golf, and having jam sessions and parties in the White House, hobnobbing with Hollywood and Motown, and the press.

Rome is burning around him, and Nero is sitting idly by and playing his harp, singing melodies to the wind, and having a great time. This is what we’ve come to. This is the hope and change so many of our fellow countrymen and women voted to bring to our nation and to a troubled world. Now this is what we got. And we have to live with it for another twenty months. The only place where the president is seen leading is in promoting his campaign for reelection, and in organizing his party’s fight to keep the incestuous and corrupt relationship between the DNC, the government agencies they control, and the big union bosses who run the nation’s organized labor unions from being dismantled by the wave of change that is sweeping the nation since the last elections.

The perception that Barack Obama has of a disconnected and uncaring person, detached and unaffected by the events around him, unless of course, those events have a direct impact on his political career, is a true perception of who the man is, because it is factual. The man simply does not care. The only concern Barack Obama has as president of the United States is to further his and his party’s radical agenda, and promoting his reelection. To this end, he is stopping at nothing to do or say anything that he and his campaign staff believe will improve his perception as a force for “good” change and “progress.” But even with the lack of viable alternatives thus far from the GOP, Barack Obama is in trouble and he knows it, and he and his people are doing something about it in order to “level the playing field” so to speak.

Back just as I warned my readers three years ago, what I said has come to pass even beyond my worst fears and concerns about this man. I warned that this man is all form and no substance, that he is a product of Madison Avenue public relations and marketing, bought and paid for by unknown and unnamed sources to the staggering tune of almost one billion dollars in campaign contributions. And now he is attempting to do the same, raise a billion dollars to get reelected. I mentioned that in spite of the level of suffering American families of all racial and makeup and economic status were suffering (and still are) during the current depression, this uncaring and self-serving politician, like all others, were busy raising obscene amounts of money while doing nothing to help the people he and they claim they were for. Well, guess what? He and they are doing it again.

Barack Obama has it all wrong; people are not afraid of him because he doesn't look like the guys on the dollar bills, as he's claimed, no he's wrong on that as he's wrong on almost everything else he says. People fear what he's going to do to their dollar bills if he's elected president that they are afraid of. Let me rephrase that; it is not what you look like that people fear, Senator Hussein Obama; it is what you're about to do with their money that they fear, and they have very good fundamental reasons to because of the promises you've made to redistribute through additional taxes and spending the money they earn, and then "spread the wealth around." You know that in order for you to keep you promise of a "tax cut for ninety five percent of Americans" you're actually going to raise the taxes on those who work and pay taxes, while writing a welfare check to forty percent of those who don't work and don't pay taxes. Senator Obama you want to be the Mac Daddy of forty percent of our electorate, whom you know don't pay income taxes while penalizing the rest with the highest tax increases in this nation's history if you get to the White House. Senator Obama, your plan will bankrupt what is left of our economy and destroy the social fabric of what has defined this nation since its founding.. Obama, while I celebrate that America has grown to be all inclusive, I cannot in good conscience vote for you because there are just too many questions about you, and your questionable past working associations, your plan to redistribute people's money without their consent ("spread the wealth around"), your plan to spend an additional one point three and a half trillion of our tax dollars additional to the already eight hundred fifty billion that you and your congressional colleagues just voted to give to the same fat cats who helped cause the ruination of millions of American' savings and retirement, and your plan to have government literally do almost everything for almost everyone - an impossibility which will destroy this country's economic infrastructure and reduce it into a Marxist "Paradise" like Cuba and Venezuela, and the former Soviet Union; no sir, I cannot support you for president.

I wrote those prescient words back then, and my opinions on the man and his policies have not changed. On the contrary, in light of the track record that Obama and his allies in congress have established for themselves, these reservations have been reinforced and brought out to the fore. No matter how lackluster the opposition may appear at the moment, Obama has proven to be nothing short than a disaster that never should have happened to this country.

Obama may be a charismatic politician, a community organizer, a force within his own political party, a likeable person one may “want to have a beer with,” as one pundit put it, or even a great orator when given a well prepared speech in front of a teleprompter, but one thing he is not and has not been, nor will be ever be, and that is president of the United States. He may hold that office for now, but he is nothing more than a figurehead and an image, lacking any real substance or leadership – he is only president in title only, and he is on the wrong side of every issue that is important to America and to its people and their interests and well being.
