PINO: President in Name Only
Townhall.com ^ | Jan 23, 2015 | Nick Adams

Posted on 01/23/2015 2:11:01 PM PST by Boomer

Listening to President Obama, it is clear he considers himself a superior intellectual force, smarter than everyone and everything that has come before.

This was a State of the Union speech defined by its hypocrisy.

The most divisive President lecturing on unity. The most political President lamenting the realities of politics. The greatest fundraising President expressing sorrow about constant fundraising. The most partisan President calling for bipartisanship. He’ll veto any change to just about everything, but hey, he will work with Republicans! His true feelings were revealed the one moment he was sufficiently brave enough to go off the teleprompter, insufficiently gracious to let smattering applause at his great revelation that he had no more campaigns to fight, quipping, “I know because I won both of them.”

Continued:

Elsewhere, he was remarkably consistent. His laundry list of free college tuition, raising the minimum wage, climate change action and raising taxes was straight out of the Marx playbook.

What’s the take-home message?

He’s a lame-duck talking a big game, threatening vetoes and bringing policies that are dead on arrival.

Time for a new term: PINO. President in name only.

He doesn't behave like a President. He doesn't act like a President.

And he certainly doesn't lead like a President. -snip-

The arrogance of this "PINO" seems to have no boundary.

the pRes_ _ent is STILL undocumented,
but that is ignored because he made the Congress EXEMPT
as they have done for all Moslems, even after the
911 Atrocities which are a "workplace accident".

REMEMBER the Cole.


"Victims of Cole bombing upset
"A top officer slammed Obama's decision to seek the withdrawal of charges against the 2000 suspected U.S.S. Cole ship bomber."


"Impeach Obama Says Sister of Cole Sailor Killed in Terror Attacks
"The sister of Seaman James McDaniels, a sailor killed in the terror attack on the U.S.S. Cole wants President Barack Hussein Obama impeached
over his decision to withdraw charges against the al Qaeda mastermind of the attack."


"Mother of USS Cole Sailor Declines Obama-meet, Says "I Voted for the Wrong Person"
"After Obama dropped the charges against the suspect in the bombing of the USS Cole,
he asked the families of the victims in that tragedy to meet with him.
One mother refused, and now says,"I voted for the wrong person."

So would all of the stories of his many crimes now be called PINO noir?

Based solely upon his core beliefs, Obama is also AINO (American in Name Only). AINO’s pronunciation (’ain’ as in Rain and ‘O’ as in oh) reflects the essence of Obama.

I won’t give the usurper that formerly prestigious title either. He’s certainly the Occupant of the White House, but that’s about it. I pray that we will be able to eliminate every vestige of his presence in our White House, repeal every law, remover every judge appointed by him, and clean out the political mess with all the thoroughness of the White House staff cleaning the Oval Office once Bill Clinton finally departed. We need to kill it all and then find a way to salt the fields so nothing introduced by Obama ever grows back in our free country.

Obama’s legacy should be even less than a stained blue dress; it should be nothing beyond a few footnotes in history books that explain the devastation that will hopefully have been repaired.

He may bear the title “President”, but the Current Occupant now squatting in the White Hut is not the actual mover and shaker, it is Valerie Jarrett that is calling the shots.

And pretty badly, it might be added.

I think this describes the PINO perfectly:

“Narcissism becomes particularly “malignant” (i.e. malevolent, dangerous, harmful, incurable) when it goes beyond mere vanity and excessive self-focus. Malignant narcissists not only see themselves as superior to others but believe in their superiority to the degree that they view others as relatively worthless, expendable, and justifiably exploitable. This type of narcissism is a defining characteristic of psychopathy/sociopathy and is rooted in an individual’s deficient capacity for empathy. It’s almost impossible for a person with such shallow feelings and such haughtiness to really care about others or to form a conscience with any of the qualities we typically associate with a humane attitude, which is why most researchers and thinkers on the topic of psychopathy think of psychopaths as individuals without a conscience altogether.”

Read today that in 2007 Baraq & Mooch used a “special provision” of the 529 law to put a quarter mil into the fund for Malaria and Shaia.

Good one. Can't wait to see the tsunami of sh*t that will come out about him in 2017.

I have been using that term for Obama/Soetoro since 2009, so I support you all the way on this label for the CIC (Criminal in Chief).

AMEN! I pray every day for him to be arrested, tried, convicted and severely punished for fraud, for countless violations of the law, and for treason.

Don't get your hopes up. The media has been too complicit in this deception to start dishing out dirt in two years. They'll keep the lid nailed down tight.

100% spot on. That describes Jug Ears to a T.

"It’s almost impossible for a person with such shallow feelings and such haughtiness to really care about others or to form a conscience ..."

"Almost impossible" meaning he couldn't do it if he tried. It seems to me that it is evident in his words and actions that he does sometimes try and he just can't pull it off.

From 9-28-10 FOX News:

WOODWARD: . . .I think what I found in all of this is that Barack Obama trusts his own ability to identify the issues and in the Afghan war. He actually designed the strategy.

O'REILLY: So, Obama thinks he's the smartest guy in the room?

WOODWARD: Yes.
