Obama is smarter than you
The Washington Times ^ | October 21, 2010 | Editorial

Posted on 10/20/2010 7:49:02 PM PDT by Abakumov

President Obama was elected by a country that doesn't deserve to be ruled by someone as enlightened as he is - or so he thinks. Last weekend, as it became increasingly evident that the president's party is headed for historic losses in the midterm elections, Mr. Obama offered his explanation for the electorate's thanklessness. "Part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now, and facts and science and argument does [sic] not seem to be winning the day all the time is because we're hardwired not to always think clearly when we're scared," he told attendees at a Democratic fundraiser. "And the country's scared, and they have good reason to be."

This is Barack at his most self-absorbed. On his side are facts, science and argument; his opponents, by implication, appeal to myth, irrationality and demagoguery. His brain trust brings moral clarity and intellectual certainty; his opponents are backward-looking knuckle-draggers. This is the only way he can explain the ingratitude of the American people toward his benevolent regime.

I for one am tired of his “enlightenment” and be patronized and condescended to and also lectured to for not agreeing to the party line by Hussein. November 2012 is the time to fire him.

Obama is smarter than you

No, he's not. :)

I know that isn't the premise of the article but I know when I've been insulted ;)

Anyone seen his college transcripts or grades? If not, I’ll consider him stupid.....and he’s proved me right so far...but, then, he’s a DEMOCRAT!

One thing rings true. You can ALWAYS judge character by the company one keeps. Think first of Christ's disciples, then maybe the founding fathers of our nation, then ANYONE you truly admire. conaider uhbam's friends and associates- what little we know just reeks of men and women who HATE our country. Marxists, or in the spoiled brat's case-ayers-openly communist.

sad.

Our press knew, and did not care to share, not with any depth or investigation. Everything is secret with uhbama.

He may be smart, but his intelligence is not tempered with reality.

He did not listen to the people of his nation. Instead, he crashed down his 'better' ideas with the iron fisted hand of a man who knew he controlled our house and senate. He RAMMED his political philosophy through, and began the decay of our economy and freedom in the process.

He blew it because he could not step out of his narcissistic personality long enough to hear the cries of his nation.

Imo, he does not care about the suffering he has caused, but he appears dead concerned with leaving his mark and destroying our capitalistic way of life.

I am sorry our first black, well, half black, president had to be such a miserable failure.

He is a mess. And he needs psychological help. So does his wife.

Would be dictators always underestimate the wisdom of the people they wish to subjugate. Our first affirmative action president has the fatal flaw of actually believing the BS his puppet masters have ingrained within him.

It takes more than flowery words and a smooth speech pattern to lead a people born into a legacy of liberty and freedom.

It takes someone who actually “gets” America. And doesn’t rewrite our founding, sacred documents on the fly.

Even my 6 y.o. daughter is smarter than Obama - she, at least, has already grasped the basic concept that there is no such thing as a free lunch, something that Obuttocks has still not quite got a grasp on.

Dumber. Your slime mold doesn’t rely on a teleprompter.

These two mopes? Smart? Not even slick. Just typical Chicago criminals, that's all. I'd like to them both in orange jump suits where they ought to be. Mope-In-Chief & First Mope
