The cracks are becoming apparent. They are small cracks … but cracks they are. Buyers remorse is showing up in unexpected places like MSNBC for starters.
First there was Keith Olbermann’s (10 minute) epiphany with Professor Jonathan Turley as they decried Obama’s change of heart about unlawful surveillance and wiretapping . . . because (surprise! NOT!) he’s going further than Bush 43!
Two days ago I was over at NO QUARTER and found that Rachael Maddow was wringing her hands about Obama. Will wonders never cease?
Hat tip to Texas Darlin for the next “heads up” detailing an article written by Ted Rall, in the State Journal-Register. Mr. Rall, a Obama supporter, is now calling for him to resign. Here’s some of what he has to say about Fauxbama:
[...]
But the gap between the soaring expectations that accompanied Barack Obama’s inauguration and his wretched performance is the broadest such chasm in recent historical memory. This guy makes Bill Clinton look like a paragon of integrity and follow-through.
From health care to torture to the economy to war, Obama has reneged on pledges real and implied. So timid and so owned is he that he trembles in fear of offending, of all things, the government of Turkey. Obama has officially reneged on his campaign promise to acknowledge the Armenian genocide. When a president doesn’t have the nerve to annoy the Turks, why does he bother to show up for work in the morning?
Obama is useless. Worse than that, he’s dangerous.
Ouch!
Locking up people who haven’t done anything wrong is worse than un-American and a violent attack on the most basic principles of Western jurisprudence. It is contrary to the most essential notion of human decency. That anyone has ever been subjected to “preventive detention” is an outrage. That the president of the United States, a man who won an election because he promised to elevate our moral and political discourse, would even entertain such a revolting idea offends the idea of civilization itself.
Double Ouch!
That’s pretty tough stuff, but really Ted we told you so. But did you listen? Noooo! And Rachael, Keith, and Jonathan are you all so surprised that a man that broke campaign promises left and right during his run for the presidency is continuing to break them now? You remember the Missouri Truth Squads don’t you? You are all surprised, really?
One thing Ted Rall has right, Obama is dangerous, but for reasons not enumerated in his rant.
The fact is we have a man holding the office of POTUS who was never eligible to run for or hold the highest office in our country. He was helped by the (God, I never thought I’d use this term!) liberal mainstream media and enabled by the courts, hosts political insiders who wanted to take the White House by whatever means necessary, and legal community who have, with few exceptions, remained silent on his ineligibility under Article II Section 1 of the C0nstitution.
Forget for a moment, that every law passed under his “presidency” is effectively null and void, which given the state of the economy has many benefits!
How did we get here? It seems this country is populated by numerous “enlightened” persons whose elevated sense of self and guilt about slavery knows no bounds. They decided (group think) that this country’s “absolution for its past sins” lay in Barack H. Obama. Yes, even if BHO was bi-racial, was only half black (years ago the term was mulatto) it was close enough! So guilt and stupidity brought us here. Screw the Constitution, we need to pay for our past sins!
I don’t know how this is going to play out, but a few days ago we finally got a reporter to ask White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs about Obama’s birth certificate. FOX NEWS finally ran a segment on Obama’s eligibility. Now it is being reported that this is a very hot topic on the Fox blogs.
Like I said, we’re beginning to see cracks!
Oh ya, one more thing. Let’s all sing, “Free at last, free at last. Great God almighty, we’re free at last!” And why are singing these words? Because now we know this country is ready to elect its first black president! Now, can we move on?
