Obama obviously goes out of his way to insult America in general and the Military in particular. However, the gum chewing—almost certainly Nicorette—was more likely a result of his addictive-dysfunctional personality. You’d have to have spent a lot of time around a seriously addiction-dysfunctional person to know how bad it gets. They say Obama is playing golf at unprecedented levels. He’s partying—with abundant alcohol—in a similar measure. We don’t know about smoking, but odds are it’s up. There are rumors he spends enormous amounts of time watching ESPN. If we had more info, this list would doubtless be much longer.
Get Obama in a Normandy-beach setting, & he’s temporarily cut off from all his addictive outlets/props. The fact that he can’t go even that short period of time without a serious Nicorette fix is a window into how bad it’s gotten. This is an addictive-dysfunctional wreck careening down the highway toward a massive smash up.
Obama uses his addictions to separate himself from unpleasant realities. For some time now reality has been more and more unpleasant. He is unpopular & his polls stubbornly refuse to rebound. Criticism from his own party is intensifying. His Bergdahl blunder is evidence of desperation. He just had to get the news cycle off the VA scandal. But he’s so isolated & distracted that he had no idea of the firestorm he would provoke.
Yes, his gum chomping reflected badly on America, & certainly insulted the vets. But its primary function most likely was to get nicotine into his system. He is out of control. He’s living from golf game to golf game, party to party, drink to drink, etc. No matter how hard they try, his managers won’t be able to haul him unscathed to the end of this term. Addiction-dysfunction is a downward spiral. Obama is caught in it, & intensifying its severity over time. This will not end well.
Great ! I’ll keep praying my imprecatory prayers that God destroy him unless he repent and mend his wicked ways.
And that goes for any political leader that demonstrates a wicked hatred of God and his Law Word, the Bible, and refuses to repent and seek salvation in Jesus Christ.
This includes most every politician we have, save a few, who do not appear to be complete hucksters, so it’s not so clear that they are wicked.
But those who flagrantly contradict the Bible, persecute Christians and do basically nothing but other wicked acts - God please destroy them, and place godly leaders over us ! Please God !
We repent from our wicked ways; help us, make us the Lord’s good and faithful servants ! We look only to Jesus Christ, only begotten Son of God, our Lord and Savior, for our salvation. Create in us a clean heart !
“His Bergdahl blunder is evidence of desperation. He just had to get the news cycle off the VA scandal.”
Bergdahl blunder was planned long before the VA scandal hit the news.
A friend of mine son was sent back to Afghanistan several weeks ago.
Before he left he received extensive training how to escape capture. Much more than he had ever received before.
The military knew months ago there was going to be an increased threat to our military men and women being taken hostage.
Fantasywriter, nice analysis and right on.
It didn't begin well either.
An amazing post, Fantasywriter. As I consider your points, I believe you are right.
Here is what I am going to do; I bookmarked your post and when events happen as you foretell, I am going to repost this and give you credit. I agree with you, sad to say.
