Excellent analysis.

I fear we are too late.

Some of us said during his entire first term that if we, in the grand sense, kept the pressure up on this guy he would crack. The similarity of Qweeg the character in the novel to his excellency is striking accurate. I think anyone who has worked for or with someone who has risen in an organization above their level of competence recognizes the resemblence to this situation. He refuses to acknowledge to himself he is a dud. The evidence is there, super control freak and person who conjures up straw advisaries whenever a decision need be reached while holding onto his teleprompter prop for support.

Two things we need fear more than this clown, those who control him and those who voted for someone like him. Kagel let slip the beans during his hearing: I am not a decision maker. Really, a cabinet member who is not making decisions for his constitutionally approved “ministry”. Wow. So, if the cabinet people are not making decisions, except how to arrange their office furniture, the question begs be answered, who is?

I’m also worried that it’s too late. I think at this point that the only thing that could put a halt to this would be findings by the courts that his various “executive orders” were, for one reason or another, not legitimate for the type of thing he used them for (essentially, to make law), thus throwing things back on the legislature. Then the courts would somehow have to have enough legislative and popular support to actually enforce these decisions, or Obama will simply ignore them, as he has done to date on similar things.

As for the legislatures, Obama is riding roughshod not only over the GOP in the legislature, but the Dems, as well; there were several agreements on important matters (particularly fiscal) reached between the Dems and the GOP that Obama simply rejected, instead imposing his own version. I’m sure there must be at least some Dems who are not happy about this.

The other possibility is that Obamacare will implode, as it already shows signs of doing. The question is whether this will lead to a legislative rebellion and even possibly a popular rebellion (in response to the IRS administered fines for not being able to afford the new, insanely expensive, mandated health insurance).

In the latter case, however, the country will be in such disarray that Obama will have achieved his goal of destruction.
