Since the election of Barry “Almighty”, has America, as so many are now saying, been pushed beyond that point of no return? Is all hope now lost of ever regaining any of what has been stolen from us, supposedly the freest people on the planet, by our out of control government? Or instead, is it game, set, match with all important decisions regarding how we live our lives now to made by the bureaucratic elites and therefore, for the rest of us, all over but the cryin? Has the fat lady, in deed, now sung? A bigger question may be, were the midterm elections of this past November nothing more than the equivalent of that last gasp, that dying breath, of a society which is essentially dead already, with its individual members still having failed to recognize that sad fact? And, in the end was perhaps this grand experiment in freedom called America, simply a bridge too far, a dream of our Founding Fathers that, with human behavior being what it is, really never really stood much of a chance to succeed anyway? Has the level of confidence in our leaders that may have at one time existed, now been lost? Has it now sunk to such a level that it has become the primary cause of our citizenry to have now become thoroughly infected with a near malignant form of complacency? A complacency, which can have as its only result the handing over to the political elites that which they crave most, a free hand to do whatever it is that they wish. However, the only ones ever being made to suffer in a scenario that allows them to assume ever greater control, is none other than “We the people.” I am of the opinion that it is the general perception of many people that very few of our elected leaders actually put our country above their own political ambitions. And that is a very dangerous trend. If people do not see anyone in a leadership role who is willing to make the hard decisions that most of see as being necessary in order to salvage what’s left of our country, they get very frustrated. And when people get frustrated they tend to operate under the perception that no matter whom they vote for, nothing is ever going to change, and therefore they don't bother to vote. And when people don't vote then we end up with something like the predicament in which we currently find ourselves. It doesn't help matters when the level of integrity, minimal as it once was, amongst our politicians, now seems to have evaporated completely.
From day one of America's most disastrous presidency, a concerted and very purposeful effort has been underway to bring about a total and complete economic collapse in this country. Barry and the Democrats, have exhibited a level of arrogance rarely seen out in the open and have felt very much emboldened because of they're being in possession of rather substantial majorities in both Houses of Congress for the last two years. Hence, they set about to take unfair advantage of those majorities, majorities that were in fact cheerfully handed over to them by the American people, and have successfully managed to ram through every possible piece of costly and intrusive legislation that they could possibly dream up. Legislation they have wanted to pass for decades but have never before had the opportunity to make a reality. And with the signing into law of each and every new bill, came just a little more loss of freedom for the American people. Legislation that even though, in the end, will, no doubt, prove to be very damaging to America, is needed because it is all part of the socialist agenda of one man, our “community agitator” president, and political thug, Barry "Almighty." While there have been moments of unity on the Republican side of the aisle, there have still been, along the way, far too many faux conservatives that have seemed to be far too willing to offer their assistance to Barry. With many behaving as eager accomplices almost eager to assist in Barry’s endeavor to advance his obviously “statist” agenda. These RINOs must no longer be permitted to betray the trust of the American people by their overwhelming and misplaced desire to “compromise.” The still have not learned that very valuable lesson which is, to compromise with Democrats is to do so at your own peril, because to attempt compromise with Democrats means one thing, capitulation. They will never surrender in their attempt to move forward with their "progressive" agenda, bipartisanship to them is defined as accepting the surrender of their political opponents. The Republicans cannot ally themselves with a man whom, and in very short order, has become public enemy number one of our country. That man being, of course, Barack Hussein Obama. This type of behavior is intolerable and should be considered as being at best simply negligent and at worst, outright criminal. And what is really terrifying, at least to me, is the fact that we are only now at the halfway point, we can only hope, of this the most disastrous presidency in recent memory. In his 2 short years since assuming office, Barry has been more successful in his efforts to not only destroy our economy but to also severely weaken our national defense than Jimmy Carter managed to do in all of his 4 years. AMAZING! And to now make the attempt to portray Barry as beginning to behave in nearly a Reaganesque manner, as does a recent issue of Time magazine, goes behind being laughable. It's insane! But such is the mentality of those who take part in our present-day state-controlled media conglomerate.
What should be painfully obvious by now to even the most brain dead of those who stubbornly remain extremely devoted to our "Dear Leader," is the level of Barry's belligerence and his win at all costs mentality. He is determined to succeed in his endeavor to further weaken our country on as many fronts as he is able to and all manner possible. He insists upon doing all that he can to dig us ever deeper in a hole, economically, fiscally as well as internationally, and at nearly a fevered pace, hoping to make it all the more difficult for us to ever get ourselves out. A fact that is pretty much routinely ignored by nearly all of those who comprise today's state run media conglomerate. The arrogance thus far exhibited by Barry and his party does not bode well for the future of America. Barry is an American president the likes of which we have never seen before, and God willing, we will never see again. I think that up to this point it can be said that he has been an anomaly, of sorts. Someone who was ushered into power with the help of a blatantly corrupt propaganda machine disguised as a responsible "news" media, complete with tingles up their legs. And acting together with what should rightfully be summed up as a rather ignorant electorate, a perfect storm was created. He's a man whose actions are nothing short of insidious and he is an individual who possesses such a level of contempt, even hatred, for his own country that it would seem very reasonable to consider him as being the greatest threat that our nation now faces. This internal menace has succeeded in inflicting more damage upon this country than has any external threat we have ever faced. Barry can be seen as being more than a little devious and quite deceptive in his practices, even stealthy as well as patently dishonest in how he goes about working to further his very corrosive objective to "fundamentally transform" America. What we now have in our president is an individual who cares very little about what those who elected him may actually think. He is of the opinion that it is he, and he alone, who knows what is best for them. As he was frequently heard to say during his campaign, "We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." Geez, talk about an freakin ego! And apparently he has little difficulty whatsoever when it comes to a willingness to place every single American citizen firmly in the crosshairs of those on a growing list of potential adversaries. When looking over Barry’s priorities, it would seem that defending America is much less important to him than is the going about and apologizing for all of its past sins, both real and imagined. To say that these priorities are more than a little skewed would be an understatement of the first magnitude.
A brief recap of just the main low points, Democrats no doubt differ with that opinion, would include but not be limited to:
1. Barry, in a gross breach of decorum, protocol and even good manners, went so far as to slander the Supreme Court, for no other reason than because the court had the nerve to arrive at a decision that was contrary to Barry's way of thinking and that he therefore rather strongly disagreed with. The decision came out in favor of free speech, which is something that has always been rather a particular pet peeve of Barry's. The forum in which Barry chose to single out the Justices was on national television no less and during a State of the Union address. As they say, there is a time and a place for everything and this most definitely was neither the time nor the place to bring up his grievance and in such a rather immature and very sophomoric manner. It was not only quite pathetic behavior but very un-presidential. And to see the Democrats, who essentially had the Justices surrounded, so enthusiastically applaud such ludicrous remarks was most appalling.
2. Barry has literally seized control of very large portions of the private sector. From everything from large sections of our financial sector, two auto companies and even of the student loan program all of which has allowed the government much more leverage in one more area where it definitely has no business. The main reason for the escalating cost of a college education is because of the government's growing involvement in the process. And with all of this acquisition by the government there has been no significant improvement in any segment of the economy. In fact, according to recent Gallup polling data, actual unemployment is resting 9.9 percent and under employment is at 19.2 percent. All after we were promised that unemployment would not go above 8 percent if only we trusted Barry.
3. In what was nothing more than a blatant abuse of power and a prime example of bastardizing the legislative process, Barry seized control of our healthcare system, putting it firmly onto the path toward complete socialization. There is plenty of evidence has come to light that very clearly reveals the deceit behind Barry's efforts to get his healthcare plan, a plan that he promised would not "pull the plug on grandma," passed. Opponents of the plan dubbed such efforts as "death panels" that would encourage euthanasia, were accused of being alarmists and of misrepresenting the bill through the spreading falsehoods about the plan. Well it now seems that they may have been pretty close to the truth since on December 3 the Barry "Almighty" administration issued a new Medicare regulation detailing "voluntary advance care planning" that is to be included during patients' annual checkups. The regulation aimed at the aged "may include advance directives to forgo aggressive life-sustaining treatment." The new provision, which goes into effect January 1, allows Medicare to pay for voluntary counseling to help beneficiaries deal with the complex decisions families face when a loved one is approaching death. Critics say it is nothing more than another attempt to limit healthcare options for the elderly as they face serious illness. Can you spell rationing? Barry is such a liar.
4. Barry, with assistance from Congress, has also effectively seized control of our food supply by further expanding federal powers to regulate food producers. As such, government has successfully now assumed greater control over American's food supply. So we now have bureaucrats who are not only now in control of our healthcare but also our food supply as well. Now doesn't that just give everybody a nice warm and fuzzy feelin!
5. Barry, who by the way is only the second president in the last 65 years with zero military experience, the first being "BJ" Clinton, has now, in what is really nothing more than a blatant example of political pandering, forced his rather twisted beliefs upon on our young men and women presently serving in the military. By placing those fighting for our country now into a position of having to deal with a specific type of individual who, to say the least, is apt to add yet one more discomfort to what is an already uncomfortable environment that very often calls for living in quarters that can be, more often that not, a little cramped or at least very close. With gays now being able to openly serve, behavior that would have otherwise, up until now, caused them to be discharged, will now be seen as acceptable behavior. And such behavior will now most likely be on the increase as there will be no longer be any stigma attached or fear of retribution for these people "exposing" themselves.
6. Barry has made the task of those serving in Afghanistan much more difficult by his willfully creating what is nothing short of rampant uncertainty amongst the Afghan people by insisting on stating a deadline on when American troops will leave. And all for purely political purposes, and with no desire whatsoever to achieve any level of a real victory. For Barry, victory, at least in the context of the military, is nothing but a dirty seven-letter word.
7. Barry, with assistance coming from some Republicans, continues in his efforts to subsidize, through what appears to be never-ending unemployment benefits, lazy Americans who refuse to search out potential job opportunities because it seems they make more money sitting around on their rapidly expanding derrieres while watching Oprah, their favorite soaps or perhaps reruns of "The West Wing."
8. As part of Barry's to deconstruct our national defense capability, he and the Democrats, with the assistance of 13 RINOs, have now enthusiastically placed the life of every single American the crosshairs of any number of countries all because of a seriously flawed treaty with a former Super Power which today is nothing more than a third rate dictatorship. He has effectively cut us off at the knees in our now being able to protect ourselves from such burgeoning nuclear threats as Iran and North Korea. There is now also troublesome talks taking place between Iran and Hugo Chavez's Venezuela. But Barry seems to be not the least bit concerned with such matters. After all, Hugo is one of Barry's buddies.
9. Barry has also succeeded, again with Republican assistance, in passing what was essentially "Stimulus II", the tax cut deal. With what keeping the current tax rates in place will cost us, I would have much rather had the Republican shown just a little spine and waited until after the first of the year when their numbers will expand before choosing to pursue this particular issue. But nope, they just couldn't bring themselves to do it
10. Barry and the Democrats are responsible for having now created a deficit costing $30,543 per household in 2010. This country's debt has now reached an astonishing $14 Trillion. It's absolutely mind-boggling. Barry has put us on the road to financial ruin and all with a smile on his face and a gleam in his eye. And he stubbornly continues to blame it all on Bush. Behavior that is both quite pathetic and most definitely, un-presidential.
11. We now have Barry's hand picked Chairman of the FCC, an old college buddy if his, handing over to Barry control of the Internet. Slowly but surely dissent is being quashed in this country. How dare we the people even consider criticizing our extremely thin skinned "Fearless Leader?" We just don't realize how good we have it! Thank God for Barry.
Thus far the presidency of Barry "Almighty" has been one designed entirely around the concept of "fundamentally transforming" America through dramatically increasing both the size and scope of the federal government. An expansion that now has the government being more capable than ever of worming its way ever deeper into the very fabric of our society and the personal lives of the citizenry. And the further we get into this warped presidency and the more Barry is able to accomplish, the more things will prove to be very difficult, if not impossible to reverse. I think it very safe to say that Barry has now very easily eclipsed the dangerous buffoonery of Jimmy "Peanut Brain" Carter and in so doing, can now rightfully lay claim to the title of being this nation's worst president, ever. Make no mistake, Barry is to be considered as being far more dangerous than Carter ever was. With Carter, his pitiful performance as president was more because of his own stupidity, ineptness and, to a degree, a certain naïveté regarding the world around him. With Barry it's not about any of those things, it's all about him. The insidious behavior exhibited by our current president on nearly a daily basis is much more purposeful than was that of Carter. Barry is absolutely driven in his efforts to destroy this country by any and all means possible, having resorted to what is essentially a "scorched earth" sort of methodology. He sees himself as being on a mission, a mission the purpose of which is deadly to our American set of values and core beliefs as well as our stature in the World. He wishes to be seen by the elites of the World as being the individual solely responsible for bringing about the demise of American power and influence. Many may choose to scoff at that notion, but when looking back at all that he has done and in a relatively short period of time, while seeing all that he continues to do in the present, it is most difficult to come to any other conclusion. So the sad fact is, that by the time this long national nightmare known the Barry "Almighty" presidency finally comes to an end, the face of America may very well be forever altered. His has taken, and continues to take, his desire to "fundamentally transform" America deadly serious, and I think it safe to say that, and much to the chagrin of most Americans, he has met with a great deal of success.
Make no mistake, Barry and the Democrats continue to be very fixated on their efforts to wreak as much havoc as possible and are working to seek new and improved ways in their endeavor to drive our country even further into the ditch. Their hope is to get us so far in debt that we never get out. Their plan, More “Stimulus” Spending, More Regulations, Higher Debt Limit, More Government Interference. The White House Chief of Staff said that Democrats want to raise the debt limit without cutting spending, now there's a shocker, however Americans overwhelmingly disagree. Now keep in mind that only 27 percent of likely voters favor raising the nation’s $14.3 trillion debt ceiling, while 62 percent oppose it, according to an exclusive poll for The Hill. But, when has what then people thing ever been allow to conflict with what Barry and the Dems want to do? And as ABC News has already reported, the Democrats are, as we speak, very busy teaming up with an “army of lobbyists” to keep the spending binge very much alive and well. Democrats are also working with liberal special interest groups in an attempt to derail the REINS Act, which is a proposal designed to rein in job-crushing government regulations and red tape. After two years of failed “stimulus” spending that’s left us with fewer jobs and far more debt, Democrats held a “mock hearing” to promote their desire for … more of the same failed “stimulus” spending. However, a new survey by USA Today/Gallup shows that voters prefer the GOP plan to cut government spending back to pre-“stimulus,” pre-bailout levels. “Hope and Change?” No, don’t think so!! So, after all is said and done will we be that "Shining city on the hill", or the flickering cave located somewhere down in the bowels of some deep, dark and dank canyon. Wanna bet which Barry would prefer for us?
