Glenn Reynolds said that the worse Barack Obama performed the blacker he would get. That is true, but it's also true that the worse Obama performs the more his inner Karl Marx bleeds through and Obama's real character is on full display right now.
And think for a moment about how Obama is framing his economic speeches. The core of what he’s trying to do, he said at Knox College in Illinois Wednesday, is not to make the economy better or create jobs. It’s to eliminate inequality.
So in many ways, the trends that I spoke about here in 2005 — eight years ago — the trend of a winner-take-all economy where a few are doing better and better and better, while everybody else just treads water — those trends have been made worse by the recession. And that’s a problem.This growing inequality not just of result, inequality of opportunity — this growing inequality is not just morally wrong, it’s bad economics. Because when middle-class families have less to spend, guess what, businesses have fewer consumers . . .
And that’s why reversing these trends has to be Washington’s highest priority. (Applause.) It has to be Washington’s highest priority. (Applause.) It’s certainly my highest priority. (Applause.)
He throws in “inequality of opportunity,” but what Obama is really angry about is inequality of result. He’s mad that some people have more than others. That we’re not spreading the wealth around enough. That people are getting ahead even though you didn’t build that. Because at a certain point, you’ve earned enough money.
It’s the politics of resentment, touted by someone who harbors resentment. It’s at bottom the philosophy of, gimme what you got, you rich bastard.
It’s anger. And, as it expressed itself in the speech Wednesday, it wants payback.
If income inequality isn't undone, blacks in this country will riot, rape, pillage and it's George's fault. Zimmerman, not Bush:
“If we don’t do anything, then growth will be slower than it should be. Unemployment will not go down as fast as it should. Income inequality will continue to rise,” he said. “That’s not a future that we should accept.”A few days after the acquittal in the Trayvon Martin case prompted him to speak about being a black man in America, Mr. Obama said the country’s struggle over race would not be eased until the political process in Washington began addressing the fear of many people that financial stability is unattainable.
“Racial tensions won’t get better; they may get worse, because people will feel as if they’ve got to compete with some other group to get scraps from a shrinking pot,” Mr. Obama said. “If the economy is growing, everybody feels invested. Everybody feels as if we’re rolling in the same direction.”
And Obama wants that civil unrest in this country:
Stuart Varney: Obama used the term "inequality" more than he used the word "growth". And this is a problem, according to Charles Payne.Charles Payne: It is a problem. He talked about [income inequality] being morally wrong. You know, Stuart, if you and I entered this building and there were different rules for each of us, that would be morally wrong. But if I dropped out of high school and smoked weed all day and you worked your way through college and made more money than I did, that's not inequality, that's just.
Here's what this president did: he tried to condemn capitalism. He tried to condemn success. He promotes mediocrity. And he's making excuses for people to fail in this country, instead of being honest about it.
His phrases: "people who lost their homes through no fault of their own", "people who lost their jobs through no fault of their own..." You know what: if I own a business and have 10 employees and things get bad, guess what? I'm not going to fire my best employees! Maybe you did lose your job because you weren't up to snuff!
The bottom line is this: the president is pushing this agenda. That America is somehow a mean-spirited country without opportunity and we're going backwards. When, in fact, every single year we get closer to that "more perfect union" that we strive for.
[On Obama's prediction that income inequality will increase and "social tensions will rise as various groups fight to hold on to what they have"]
In my mind -- and I hate to say this -- I think President Obama would love to see civil unrest in this country very much like the Arab Spring. I think what he's trying to do is to spark this revolution against the wealthy, against the "One Percent" who are holding us back, who are hoarding this money,
You know Democrats are trotting out this statistic about how much money the top one percent controlled in 1979 versus how much they control now. Well, it's quadrupled, as if it's the same group of people who've been greedy with money and greedy with opportunity.
You know who it is? It's a kid like Lebron James, who was in the bottom one percent and is now in the top one percent. And his salary skews that top one percent to make it look 400 percent better. What that number shows is that opportunities for America... not the bad part of America, the good part of America.
It's much easier to take from others than it is to work for something
Alinsky saw social tensions as a necessary circumstance to effective community organizing. Without anger, without the have-nots blaming the haves, it is harder to accumulate power. Alinsky considered the creation of social tensions, or the exploitation of them, as essential to move wealth and power from those who have it to those who don’t.Once “social tensions” are stoked, all that is left is the tactical organization.
Ronald Reagan rallied Americans together. Obama knows only how to divide us.
A couple of notable things:
Income inequality
It is highly significant that Obama speaks of "income inequality" instead of "wealth inequality." Income inequality isolates and protects the über-wealthy like the Pelosi's, the Kerry's the Kohl's, the Blankfeins and the Kennedy's who never have to work another day in their lives. You're not going to touch their wealth. As always, those working the hardest will be made to bear the brunt of the burden.
Obama's economic record absolutely sucks:
Median household income has generally trended lower but has plunged under Obama

still waiting for the Presidency to start
That might be true, but it does no one any good.
Obama is an opportunistic poser.
I wish. Unfortunately, he doesn’t seem to have noticed.
I think I will apply for a small business loan from the government with a business plan that pays myself, my wife and 4 employees $100K per year regardless of their talent.
This service business, anchored in the Environmental Compliance industry will generate 100K per year over the next 6 years. I’ll employ “black” high school drop outs (so Obamugabe is happy) to create MSWord and MSExel reports for my clients who will be numerated in “the double digits”.
Whaddyathink?
Its only the Matter of a very Short Time until obama starts appearing with Sharpton.... flat out ASKING for REVENGE for TRAYVONNE.
His contempt for “white” America wont be mistakable even by the ZOMBIES, at that point
Indeed. The pRes_ _ent might not have noticed,
but the cartoonists and cameras are for Eternity.

That pretty much covers 0bungle's whole life.
What a “hot mess” he has created!
He’s never been anything but a shill for Marx from the beginning... it is just more obvious to MORE PEOPLE NOW... because the veneer is worn from his ‘wonder child’ mask.
There is NO security, privacy or protection anymore from the US Federal Government.
The US Federal Government is now equivalent to Hitler’s Gestapo.
The US Federal Government is now Public Enemy Number One.
All that you and I have ever transmitted on the internet has been recorded for posterity by the NSA to use against us in any manner that current corrupt, or future corrupt Federal politicians choose to do so.
As Breitbart warned us, “This is WAR!”
BTW, remember that the best indicator of a PHONY ADMINISTRATION is the number of its REAL SCANDALS.
___________________
As long as the House RINOs keep 4+ year loser John Boehner as the most sorry Speaker of all time, Boehner will continue to be Obama’s bff (best friend forever).
_______________
With the IRS in charge of Taxation and Obama’care,’ the wealth and health of the LEGAL citizens of the United States of America will become totally controlled by corrupt politicians at the Federal level, IOW, we will be a Communist State.
We need to create as much civil disobedience as legally possible, because our sorry Congressional RINOs will not Impeach Obama for violations of the US Constitution, Anti-Trust Laws, Cowardice in the face of the enemy, or Dereliction of Duty.
Commie Obama will succeed ONLY if the RINO enablers allow him to do so.
Communist Tyrant B. Hussein Obama has no intention of allowing the US Congress to interfere with Obama’s selective implementation of the Anti-Trust violations of Obama’care.’
Those who vote to fund Obama’care’ are thus Communist enablers, pure and simple.
Commie Obama will use HIS Bureaus, HIS Executive Orders, and HIS Military to “preserve, protect and defend” his Commune-Style, Communist Obama’care’ in order to insure the complete financial destruction of The United States of America, and thus fulfill his first Inaugural vow to “Fundamentally change the United States of America.”
____________________________
As stated by B. Hussein Obama in the last month of the 2012 National Election, the main reason voters should vote for Obama was for “REVENGE!” [ Emphasis was his. ]
Hence, we are not surprised by Obama’s Communist-based malice towards us.
The gullible Liberal Agenda Media, RINOs and Democrats will discuss Obama’s Smokescreens, ignore the scandals, and thus promote the Communist goals of Obama, Holder, Axelrod and Jarrett.
Remember 50+ years ago when a DEMOCRAT said: ‘”ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU? ASK RATHER, WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY?!”
Who today, save the heroic in the US Military, can honestly identify with the above credo, long ago discarded by “both” political parties?

Partial State Control is Socialsim.
Those who enable Socialism are Socialist enablers.
Total State Control is Communism.
Those who enable Communism are Communist enablers.
Control of the health and wealth of America by the IRS is Communism.
Those sorry House and Senators who vote to fund Obama’care’ are Communist enablers.
___________
Reeling from his over 4 year failure to achieve his stated goal of “Fundamentally changing the United States of America,” Communist Tyrant B. Hussein Obama has embarked on another expensive road trip to try to sell his Commune-Style power grab of 1/6 th of the US economy by promoting the idea that increased Federal debt is the best way of salvation for the over-taxed Middle Class.
The problem is not with loyal Communist Obama, as he is just doing what his Communist trainers have taught him to do.
The problem lies with the sorry House RINOs who keep John Boehner on as their useless, Commie Obama enabler Speaker.
Nothing is going to help Commie Obama more than to keep John Boehner on as Speaker of the House.
Boehner has repeatedly stated his baseless fear that “If the Republicians stand up and oppose Obama we might be blamed by the Liberals for __________________(Fill in the blank).”
It is time for the House RINOs to step up to the plate and fight FOR The Republic, and not wallow in the baseless fears of losing the fake prasie of Liberals when a “Bi-Partisan Cave-In” is finally agreed to.
The reality is that WE would cheer “Shutting down the Government,” and it’s ‘non-essential’ Federal expenditures, or “playing politics” with Commie Obama’s “phony scandals” such as the Obama coverup of the Benghazi Massacre, or the NSA, or IRS, etc., etc., etc.
Rather than taking the fight TO the enemy, in this case the inexorable attempt to turn our Republic into a Communist State, Boehner has consistently shown that he is not a fighter by running away FROM the enemy.
It is time during Commie Obama’s con-artist tour of the remaining Liberal bastions in America for us to demand from our sorry House RINOs that they depose scardy-cat Boehner as Speaker, and install a FIGHTER worthy of our trust in his/her record of defeating Communist Con-Artists such as B. Hussein Obama.
What say all of you?
Only work 28 hours a week though!
apostrophe alert: the Pelosis, the Kohls, et al.
Not the Pelosi’s, the Kohls.
he has not failed deep enough. He still has willing liars hitting the news outlets.
Welcome King Barack "Canute" Obama the Great.....
...Obama issues an Executive Order to the Sun...
....to increase it's magnetic field....
and make a good crop of sunspots before elections in 2016....
(PhysOrg.com) -- Sunspot formation is triggered by a magnetic field, which scientists say is steadily declining. They predict that by 2016 there may be no remaining sunspots, and the sun may stay spotless for several decades.
The last time the sunspots disappeared altogether was in the 17th and 18th century, and coincided with a lengthy cool period on the planet known as the Little Ice Age....and lasted 400 years.
Good luck surviving with no electricity and GE modified seeds.

Disintegrates?
The Obamadork/felon presidency is more like a pile of fresh, wet poop lying in the Louisiana sun.
First the smell, then the flies, then the maggots...as the pile of liberal excrement slowly becomes hard and dry, with the putrescence having been carried away by the flies with fond hopes of using it to raise new liberals.
CW-II.
It’ll be the future, and hopefully a dawn on a liberal-free new world.
