Barack Obama: Too Big to Fail
Rush ^ | November 12th | Rush

Posted on 11/13/2008 3:58:16 PM PST by Halfmanhalfamazing

So right now it's... I get kind of amused when I look at the way the media is covering this guy. I'll tell you something else about Obama. You heard the concept. Remember when Donald Trump was in financial trouble, he couldn't pay back all the loans at this point in time that he owed various banks? So the banks had to rewrite and redo the loans, because Trump was too big to fail. If they let Trump fail... That whole philosophy... It's come back now -- and, by the way, Trump paid it all back. He's cool, fine, but that whole philosophy is operative now. "Citibank? Too big to fail. Big Three automakers? Too big to fail. American Express credit cards? Too big to fail." I don't know about that, but I'll tell you: As far as all they have invested in Obama, he's too big to fail -- and I'm talking about the media.

They have invested so much in this guy. If you are expecting the media to ever turn on this guy in toto, it ain't going to happen. You might see a story here or there critical of something as these people just try to keep themselves appearing honest. But there is so much invested in this guy. He represents so much more than just the presidency now. He represents things that (to the Drive-Bys, to the Democrats) are beyond human. He's too big to fail. So do not expect the standard build-'em-up-and-then-tear-'em-down from the Drive-By Media on this guy. It will not happen. He's going to have to screw up so bad -- he's going to have to mistreat a reporter so bad; something is going to have to go so bad that we can't even visualize what it is -- to force the press to do a 180. He's too big to fail. Remember the Drive-Bys think they got him elected. The Drive-Bys sheltered the truth about this guy.

The Drive-Bys helped create and present this image, this charismatic demagoguery. They helped write the script. They made it happen, and they are proud. They are happy. This was historic. In their minds they have made history. It's Camelot again, folks. It's Camelot! Camelot cannot fail. Camelot cannot end up being a bad thing in the history books. Barack Obama cannot and will not be allowed to go into the history books as the guy who destroyed the notion of Camelot, 'cause the Camelot thing is tied to the Kennedys. It ain't going to happen. He's too big to fail. So do not get your hopes invested in the press turning on him. It isn't going to happen. He's too big to fail. Now, I'm talking about image-wise. He can bomb out as a president, it's just they won't report it. He can bomb out. He could... (sighs) I don't even want to speculate on things, but there are ways. I have nothing in mind; I was just going to make something up. He could make a series of blunders like no president's ever made; they will cover. They'll find a way to cover for him. He's too big to fail.

You better believe it. No matter what happens, the MSM will somehow either spin the story, downplay it or not mention it at all. He is their creation and they will move mountains to protect him.

The bigger they are the harder they fall. And this humpty-dumpty will fall big time.

Nobody is too big t fail. The problem, of course, is that his success is tied up in our success as a nation. Those who hope he fails are like folks who want to see their worst enemy drive off a cliff in their Mercedes.

I'm afraid these folks are going to be disappointed. The big 0 will come in and try to turn this country into a socialist paradise in the mist of the biggest economic downturn in decades. Ha ha we will have them cheer-leading us that we have got to all “pitch in” to save the country while all of the smart money is streaming out of the country.

And this excellent presentation by Rush, is the probable reason the FEC (Federal Elections Commission) wanted the Berg lawsuit suppressed and killed.

I will venture this. They ALL know he is a lying fraud. He is NOT qualified to be president of this country. But the political class’ survival if far more important than enforcing our system of laws and rules.

This is a horrible example for American citizens. And the fools that are our government, wonder why the level of disgust and dislike for them continues to rise. Just look at the ratings of Congress and the current administration. I certainly hope, for the sake of the future of the REAL America, that we have finally hit bottom.

As soon as the Obamination does something the MSM doesn’t like they’ll throw him under the bus ... remember that quarterback Nabb? Big star for a while ....

“...He is their creation and they will move mountains to protect him.”

It bears repeating...Obama could dismember both his daugthers in front of an audience and telvised here and in Europe. The crowds will roar with delight and the press would just ignore such a spectacle.

Is 0bama too big to fail in the eyes of the MSM? Yes, I agree with Rush. The MSM will throw everything under the bus to prop 0bama up. The economy, national security, sovereignty, the Constitution, even the 1st amendment. Whatever it takes.

Gotta disagree with Rush on this one.
I think there will be an extended love fest well into the first year, but someone that is put on this high of a pedestal is bound to fall down...the media will be there to cause damage to his image...it’s just human nature.

It depends on what the definition of “fail” is.

true that.

If his policies fail to pull the economy out of its current death spiral, then we all fail.

If his agenda doesn’t get passed in favor of another policy that pulls the economy out, then we don’t fail

God help us, the only thing worse than what we have now is for the man to be martyred. Then we'd have to live through that.

Pray, above all else, that he lives long and that we have plenty of evidence to back up our assertion that this man is the worst person ever produced by our political process.

The 'change' we need is for America to Wake Up and take some responsibility.

The media too big to fail too? It’s going to be ugly. Folkes, we’re going to be labeled as terrorists and Obama and his 911 type terror friends as liberators. Sheesh, China and Russia too big to fail too, eh?

Idiot proofing the world is not going to work. These free handouts to criminals, it’s going to be like fiat currency, worthless no matter the print out, it will be small in the end and destroyed.

In the case of Trump, it were a bit different, the man’s visions were accountable and he were not completely crazy.
