Comment......This was written by Mychal Massie. His bio is at the bottom of the page...In this case I am passing the message along.....I could say the same thing about Obama but I don't think I would be so eloquent...
Three significant historical events have been eclipsed by Obama:
1) Jimmy Carter will no longer be looked upon as the worst president in
American history; 2) Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton will no longer be
recognized as the greatest liars in presidential history; 3) Clinton's
stain on Monica's dress, and what that did to the White House in general
and the office of the president specifically, will forever pale in
comparison to the stain and stench of Obama. I need not
spend much time on the failure of Obama as president. His tenure has
been a failure on every measurable level. So much so, in fact, that some
of the staunchest, most respected liberal Democrats and Democratic
supporters have not only openly criticized him – some even more harshly
than this essayist – but they have called for him to step down. Richard Nixon's
words "I am not a crook," punctuated with his involvement in Watergate,
and Bill Clinton's finger-wagging as he told one of the most pathetic
lies in presidential history, in the aftermath of Obama, will be viewed
as mere prevarications. Mr. Nixon and Clinton lied to
save their backsides. Although, I would argue there are no plausible
explanations for doing what they did, I could entertain arguments
pursuant to understanding their rationales for lying. But in the case of
Obama, he lies because he is a liar. He doesn't only lie to cover his
misdeeds – he lies to get his way. He lies to belittle others and to
make himself look presentable at their expense. He lies about his faith,
his associations, his mother, his father and his wife. He lies and
bullies to keep his background secret. His lying is congenital and
compounded by psychological factors of his life. Never in my life, inside or outside of politics, have I witnessed
such dishonesty in a political leader. He is the most mendacious
political figure I have ever witnessed. Even by the low standards of his
presidential predecessors, his narcissistic, contumacious arrogance is unequaled. Using Obama as the bar, Nero would have to be elevated to
sainthood. As the stock markets were crashing, taking
with them the remaining lifesaving of untold tens of thousands, Obama
was hosting his own birthday celebration, which was an event of
epicurean splendidness. The shamelessness of the event was that it was
not a state dinner to welcome foreign dignitaries, nor was it to honor
an American accomplishment – it was to honor the Pharaoh, Barack Hussein
Obama. The event's sole purpose was for the Pharaoh to have his loyal
subjects swill wine, indulge in gluttony and behavior unfit to take
place on the
property of taxpayers, as they suffer. It was of a magnitude comparable
to that of Tyco CEO Dennis Kozlowski's $2 million birthday extravaganza
for its pure lack of respect for the people. Permit me
to digress momentarily. The U.S. Capitol and the White House were built
with the intent of bringing awe and respect to America and her people.
They were also built with the intent of being the greatest of
equalizers. I can tell you, having personally been to both, there is a
moment of awe and humility associated with being in the presence of the
history of those buildings. They are to be honored and inscribed into
our national psyche, not treated as a Saturday night house party at
Chicago 's Cabrini-Green. The people of America own that
home Obama and his wife continue to debase with their pan-ghetto
behavior. It is clear that Obama and family view themselves as
royalty, but they're not. They are employees of "we the people," who
are suffering because of his failed policies. What message does this
behavior send to those who today are suffering as never before? What message does it send to all Americans who are struggling?
Has anyone stopped to think what the stock market downturn forebodes for
those 80 million baby boomers who will be retiring in the next period
of years? Is there a snowball's chance in the Sahara that every news
program on the air would applaud this behavior if it were George W.
Bush? To that point, do you remember the media thrashing Bush took for
having a barbecue at the White House? Like Nero – who
was only slightly less debaucherous than Caligula – with wine on his
lips Obama treated "We the people" the way Caligula treated those over
whom he lorded. Many in America wanted to be proud when the first person of color
was elected president, but instead, they have been witness to a
congenital liar, a woman who has been ashamed of America her entire
life, failed policies, intimidation and a commonality hitherto not
witnessed in political leaders. He and his wife view their life at our
expense as an entitlement – while America 's people go homeless, hungry
and unemployed.
