					<description><![CDATA[G Joubert,

Actually, that&#039;s precisely how I see it.

I truly believe that Obama&#039;s policies are bad for our nation, therefore Obama&#039;s failures are actually a positive thing in that they limit his damaging  our republic.  I am optimistic about our future (as Kolnai can attest) and although I don&#039;t relish the damage done to &lt;i&gt;America&#039;s&lt;/i&gt; credibility and global influence, I do believe that such damage is temporary and superficial.

I actually think it&#039;s a good thing that someone is finally bringing Obama to task.  As I&#039;ve written before on this blog;

Putin = alpha male, KGB officer
Obama = beta male, community organizer

I know where the smart money is!

I also am hoping that as Obama continues to implode, that he is inadvertantly setting the stage for a non-Hillary presidency.  The electorate has a history of electing presidents who are the antithesis of their predecessor.  Think of the lineage from Nixon to Carter, Carter to Reagan, G W Bush to Obama.  Could it be possible that the electorate will shy away from the first female president after the current beta male has made such a mess of things?

Granted this is a stereotype, and a woman like Margaret Thatcher disproves the stereotype, but Hillary ain&#039;t no Thatcher and I think this electorate knows that.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[sahrpie,

&quot;. . . we most certainly do not lead from behind.&quot;

That stupid mantra &quot;lead from behind&quot; (aka cowardice) always reminded me of the Three Stooges when Moe would say &quot;I&#039;ll lead the way . . . you guys go first!&quot;

That the administration never seemed to catch on to this relationship is a real testimony to the low level of intelligence/awareness in this administration, a supposition reaffirmed by Obama&#039;s speech on Tuesday.

As for Obama knowing more about foreign policy than his advisors do, well that&#039;s easy if all you do is hire idiots and set a low bar.  I happen know more about allergies and asthma than many laymen do---that doesn&#039;t qualify me as a physician.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The asssshole in the WH learned how to be defeated by instuctors who threw Vietnam. They have no understanding or ability to project might or power. They are defeated before they begin. They do not understand military honor, for instance, we do not leave our soldiers behind and we most certainly do not lead from behind. The motto of the Army infantry is &quot;follow me.&quot; When you follow the person in the back, that&#039;s retreat. Isn&#039;t that what the WH asshole is doing?

Postmodernism is their mantra and that mantra is the US is always wrong. This basic and fundamental belief presents an obvious contradiction when one of their own might use military power. We are seeing the attempt to square the circle. It will not happen. More likely, if and when power is consolidated, they will quickly realize they are not the US and therefore entitled to all uses of power without any restraint.  

That&#039;s their position of the future. Soft despostism? I don&#039;t believe in it. That&#039;s a lie meant to coddle the cowardly who are too afraid to die fighting for liberty.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[No surprise that he would insult his supporters.  Obama holds everybody in contempt, except maybe his own family (Michelle is the boss, there, and I think he really does love the daughters).  He uses those who agree with him as a weapon to deal with those who disagree, so he can do what he wants to do---but he does not like or respect them.

Hell, look at how he treats the press or Democratic congressmen.... his best, most lapdog-loyal supporters, he just cr*ps all over them whenever the mood moves him to do so.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;I cannot recall a president in my lifetime, right or left, who was so gratuitously and continually insulting to the opposition.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Obama has as much reason to be contemptuous of Republicans who sit motionlessly obeying the stuck signal of a broken stoplight, as Putin has reason to be contemptuous of Obama and his fraudulently inflated credentials and hollow achievements. 

Imagine what Obama himself must think of those who quail at bringing a use of force resolution to a vote because they fear a defeat will hurt the credibility of an office held by a man who has no credibility. This, on the theory that no outsider can see beyond the title of &quot;President&quot; to the mannequin behind it .

It&#039;s like being held hostage to one&#039;s concern for the fate of people who are held hostage to their own stupidity.

That contemptible Rawlsian paradigm, that unconditional &quot;commitment to a shared fate&quot; garbage really has the Republicans by the short hairs. What the hell do they think that they are trying to preserve? Maybe Obama&#039;s ability to act once he supposedly sees the light and ceases undermining the republic from within? 

I think half the people in this country must be sublimating a sexual perversion known as masochism through their political acts.]]></description>
