Obama's a Bum
The Virginian ^ | 10/29/2012 | Moneyrunner

Posted on 10/29/2012 5:34:54 AM PDT by moneyrunner

Michael Ledeeen asks the question: Why Is Obama so Nasty and Vulgar?

Obama's rude, insulting, and uses sexual inuendo to get young women to vote for him. His Vice President asks a bereaved parent about the size of his murdered son’s testicles. The press gives both of them a pass, becaue they're all Democrats and the press is just a bunch of Democrats with bylines.

It’s a continuation of a process that began with the first debate, in which Obama tip-toed out from behind the curtain on the central stage of Oz, and showed us who he really is. Not a great leader, certainly not a messianic figure. Indeed, as we now see, he’s a bum. It’s a shock to lots of Americans, who previously were willing to grant that the president had his faults but was basically a good man, a nice guy, and a cultured gentleman. He showed them he was none of those things.

I think that was a real shock to a meaningful chunk of the electorate, and it would not have been nearly so potent if it had come from a book or an oped. Its power comes from the fact that Obama showed it himself.

It shouldn’t have been hard to foresee the consequences of his self-revelation. So why did he do it? He’s certainly capable of dissimulation. The One who won the presidency four years ago did not present himself this way. He and his acolytes very carefully portrayed him as a transcendent figure, a new kind of leader, the incarnation of elegance and brilliance. And that succeeded. So what’s up?

I think he’s cracking, and the inner nastiness and vulgarity are on display. He’s losing, and he’s angry, and he can no longer sustain the pretense of elegance and coolness.

Nobody ever said he was disciplined, did they?

Moreover, he is the victim of his own myth, the “I have a special gift” legend that is the core doctrine of his powerful narcissism. He thinks he is so charismatic, and so wonderful, that if we see him in all his splendor, we will love him as he so loves himself.

The difference between Obama and the Wizard of Oz? The wizard was a fraud. Obama's a fraud and a vulgar bum.

“The MSM swallowed him and his shtick whole.”

Will the MSM shun Obama once his time is up? They continue to embrace the Clintons post-impeachment but with Obama they continue falling all over themselves for him so much that there should at least be no more unconditional love for Him.

IF the MSM has retained just a smidgin of professionalism and dignity, they should dismiss Obama as the con man that he is and bring reprisals for making fools out of all of them.

However, if they did that, it wouldn’t be long before they’d be tagged as racists and bigots but maybe that’d be par for the course.

Obama is, at best, only an accidental American. Raised in Indonesia, he has none of the first impression images of any typical American child. Had his candidacy ever been properly analyzed, his political career would never have gotten off the ground.

See The Accidental American. It is precisely because those first images are so important to one's lifelong perspective, that the Founding Fathers insisted that one be a natural born American, to run for President. They, of course, never envisioned an American woman taking her infant son out of the country for his upbringing!

I am sure "O" and his tuna will NOT go away but will remain pawns of the same greedy and unscrupulous people who put him in the WH and who have too much to lose in abandoning them now.

Besides, "O" and Big MO will be permanent fixtures in American political life from now on and of course will travel far and wide on their respective lecture tours raking in millions annually and assuring social discord in America for decades to come.

It goes without saying that their kids will become the newest untouchable, Liberal 'royalty' in America, just like the Kennedys and equally as corrupt and inept.

One of my daily prayers is that not only will Obama be defeated in this election, but that subsequent revealations about his background and unlawful behavior would utterly humiliate off the public stage for the rest of his natural life. I want to see the world wake up and hold him and his family in ridicule.""""........

DITTO all that, if only. May he go the same way Lance Armstrong has, remove all legacy about them in humilation. Scrubbed from all history/textbooks forever.

The Obama's are no more fit to be remembered than Mussolini.

Agreed, though it's not nearly the descriptor I'd have chosen.

Democrats are the party of the vile and vulgar. That half the country identifies with them is a sad reflection of our terminally sick country.
