Mission Statement: This blog reviews the news of the day in light of 242 years of American history. "Nationalism," a modern day pejorative, has been our country's politic throughout history, until 2008. Obama changed that narrative. Trump is seeking a return to our historical roots. Midknight Review supports this return to normality.
Obama cracks a smile as he ignores one crisis after another. (a 22 point list)
1. He gave a speech at the University of Cairo, in early 2009, offering hope to the opposed in the Middle East.
The Arab Spring that followed, was completely ignored by this Thin Skinned Organizer. Iranian young adults were screaming, "Obama, come help us." Signs with this wording were seen all over Iran, especially during the demonstrations in Tehran. And what did Obama do. Our theme picture tells the whole story.
2. In 2010, he issued his "red line" in the sand statement to the regime in Syria. When Assad called his bluff, our pic records Obama's response.
3. He spent years fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan, only to seek a "negotiated peace" with those Muslim killers. When they told him to take a hike, he went to his default position, and the rest is the history of a second war, lost by our first presidential organizer.
4. Afraid of what China might think, Obama escorted Tibet's, Dalai Lama, out the back door of the White House, the same door used to literally take out the trash.
5. When Neanyahu came for a White House vist, last year, Obama berated him, behind closed doors, refused to have a photo-shoot with the leader, and escorted him, the Prime Minister, out the same back door as the Dalai Lama.
6. Peshmerga and Kurdish fighters, in Iraq, have repeatedly begged for arms and ammo. Obama refuses, fearing an over reaction, all the while, ISIS is about to burn to death 17 captured Peshmerga fighters. Obama and Kerry, both, are on record telling us, "We have plenty of time to get our military response, right."
7. The Jordanian king, asked Obama for air support and more arms and ammo. Instead, Obama gave him the promise of money, and nothing else.
8. When the fight was in Ukraine's peninsula, just before the Russia's captured that region, Ukraine asked for US help. Obama sent them socks and canned military rations.
9. When caught lying his butt off, regarding every aspect of ObamaCare, Barack said, "Ooooops," and moved on, not realizing that these lies have turned the American voter off to his leadership. He can't see what he has done to the Democrat Party of the default positioning of his head.
10. When asked about his strategy for fighting ISIS, he said, "We have no strategy," and then, pretended that the American people did not understand what he said and the implications, thereof.
11. Six years of GPD under 2.4%, and he still tells us that the economy is strong than it has been in a decade. Default position is the only explanation for this rhetorical nonsense.
12. His own EPA has approved the Keystone Pipeline, yet he pretends that there remains unanswered questions.
13. When subpoenaed by Congress, for any number of documents, he simply says, "So sue me," and in that challenge, fails to see the distrust in government he is causing.
14. After the failure of "Cash for Clunkers," he stopped talking about it, hoping that folks like me, would forget.
15. After his electric golf cart give away failed, he stopped talking about that, also, again, hoping the Gate Keepers across this nation, would have forgotten.
16. When it had become painfully obvious, he said, "Apparently 'shovel ready jobs' were not as shovel ready as we had thought." And he scurried away from that bit of idiocy, as well.
17. After he "saved the auto industry," Chrysler had to sell out to the German company, Fiat, and Central Planning had to dump their stock holdings in GM for a loss of 1.5 billion dollars. Obviously, he thinks if he sticks his head in the sand, no one will notice this failure.
18. He was going to make college affordable. Now, six years later, that generation of voters have moved on, Obama losing close to 15% of these Millennials in the last election, and, all he can says as he assumes the position is, "Oooooops."
19. Blacks who care about working and improving their lot in life, are screaming, "What in the hell have you done for us?" And a million or more stayed away from the voting booth. With his head in the sand, Obama barely took note.
20. When someone told Obama, "You know, all these illegals your are going to excuse, well, they are going to take jobs away from the legal immigrants that vote for you, now." And he said, "Ooooops," as he drove for his underground bunker.
21. He has no clue as to the art of diplomacy, so he circumvents congress, and pretends that his temporary memo's and regulations is his path to fundamental change. It is not, of course. In this, he is, once again, found with his head buried into the subterranean world of self imposed ignorance.
22. Yesterday, the slaughter of those Coptic Christians, finds Obama refusing to mention that the victims were Christian and the criminals (in his terms) were Islamic extremists. In this, we have another example of a man putting his head in the sand.

You have no idea what Obama is doing behind the scenes. He is smarter than Bush, and smarter than you. He will not show his hand to you or the enemy. You, nor anyone else knows when an operation to kill terrorists is underway, til after it happens ... keeping your fat ass safe, so you can live another day and spread more hate for the hand that feeds and maintains you.
ReplyDelete"You have no idea what Obama is doing behind the scenes." This is because he has taken six years to get nothing done. Apparently you think he is waiting for the last minute to reveal his accomplishments.
Delete"He is smarter than Bush" is evidenced only in your dreams. Bush read a book every day he was in office, overcame the recession caused by the attack on the Twin Towers, maintained the second best economy in American history, in spite of the 2008 collapse. Bush graduated from Yale and, again, from Harvard's Business School and came to D.C. as one of the most successful and popular governor's in state history . . . . . the first Texan to be re-elected as governor.
Extremely qualified vesus a man who refuses to release his scholastic records and high school transcripts, does not know how to pronounce "corps," had no clue how many states were in our Union ("57 or is it 58?") , had no experience whatsoever as a CEO, a governor, a business man, nor, any expertise in the art of warfare. I mean, Obama wrote and submitted 4 budget proposals. Two went to the Senate. One lost 97 to 0 and the other failed with a 99 to 0 vote . . . . . . his budgets were so poorly written that he did not get a single vote from anyone in the Senate. How dumb does one have to be to have that record? But, wait, there is more! His two budget submissions in the House failed 414 to 0 and , the following year, his budget failed with a 416 to 2 vote. In fact, Obama is the only president in American history with such a record. Just incredibly immature and inexperienced. Compare the Bush budgets to whatever Obama was doing with his budgets, and, your fantasy as to Obama's intelligence goes down the toilet.
