The Naked Emperor
April 4, 2011
My initial assessment of Barack Obama was that he was a pathological narcissist. While I stand by that assessment, as we get deeper into his first term, we find there are other contributing factors that will, when history is finally and honestly written, determine his presidency to have been even worse than both Woodrow Wilson and Jimmy Carter.
In the first place, he was so sure he had all the answers he didn't even bother to verify it with past similar events. He just knew his personality would transcend idealogical barriers, that history didn't matter, and that by simply showing up, problems would be solved. Apparently the only people he fooled were on the Nobel Prize committee!
To illustrate, all we need do is look at the latest developments.
1. Today we find out that he's going to have Khalid Sheik Mohammad tried in...(drum roll)...a military tribunal! Isn't that the guy we had a confession from and were about to convict in a military tribunal when he pulled the government's case and threw it out in favor for a civilian court trial that turned out to be impossible? I thought so. These are just the latest! This administration is littered with failures so badly that the only success we might be able to point to is his improving golf score. When Barack Obama was elected, many said he was an "empty suit". Well, that was close. Instead, what we find is he's just like the emperor who strutted about showing off his new clothes until a small boy, who evidently hadn't been very well educated, pointed out that the emperor was naked. Well, our emperor-in-chief isn't pointing out his clothing, but he sure likes to tout his superior understanding and grasp of the issues, as well as his detailed plans for fixing all the woes that befall our nation, many of which he brought with him. I get the feeling if these were his clothing, that small boy might still have a point. By the way, you can add "transparent" to the list of words so-called progressives have ruined - right up there with "gay", "investment", and "extreme", among others. I fear it won't be too long before the word "American" can be added to that list! |
