Puts Obama in perspective

[Patrick1]

Easy to understand. Churchill believed what he was saying, Obama didn’t.

[Talisker]

This week, Obama gave us this frightening insight into his presidency—he does not care where he is leading us, but we are sure to get there...

Nonsense - he cares very much. But as long as he keeps saying he doesn't know where we're going, he can keep denying that he's deliberately forcing us there. Which, considering "there" is the complete destruction of America, is a fairly important thing to preserve plausible deniability over.

This administration is full of irony. The health care bill was signed the same day (235 years later) Patrick Henry gave the “Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death” speech.

[Polybius]

Seventy years later, Barack Obama gave us this: What has defined us as a nation since our founding is the capacity to shape our destiny—our determination to fight for the America we want for our children. Even if we’re unsure exactly what that looks like. Even if we don’t yet know precisely how we’re going to get there. We know we’ll get there.

Barack Obama was an Affirmative Action candidate that had never even managed a 7-11 Store. .... And it painfully shows.

He was elected President of the United States because he could read a TelePrompter really well and because his absentee father blessed him with a Politically Correct skin color for the Politically Correct early 21st Century.

In Joe Biden's words, "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,"

How white-guilt, racist and condescending can you possibly get?

Let's not judge a Presidential candidate by his character or by his qualifications to hold America's highest office. Let's just judge him by the color of his skin and the fact that he meets the minimum requirements for being a high school valedictorian.

Sorry, Dr. King. Your dream is still not fulfilled.

Those facts, right there, puts America as a seriopus contender for The National Darwin Award for the 21st Century.

If Obama had been a white male candidate, held to non-emotional standards, his utter lack of experience would have made his candidacy a joke.

All of this is not Obama's fault. It is the fault of the simple majority of American voters: Both the fools on the Left and in the Center that thought that Obama was a Savior and the fools on the Right that preached that McCain would be just as bad as Obama.

One more stupid election and America may end up in the Dustbin of History at the end of the 21st Century.

— Winston S. Churchill

Unfortunately this applies to our POTUS.

[americanophile]

Quite right.

There will not be another Churchillian figure in our lifetime.
