Democrat calls for Obama to Resign
ArmeniaLive ^ | 5/30/09 | Ted Rall

Posted on 05/31/2009 11:15:09 AM PDT by bigred4u

IT'S INCREASINGLY EVIDENT THAT OBAMA SHOULD RESIGN

The State Journal-Register http://www.sj-r.com/opinions/x12460 932/Ted-Rall-It-s-increasingly-evident-that-Obama-should-resign May 29 2009

MIAMI -- We expected broken promises. But the gap between the soaring expectations that accompanied Barack Obama's inauguration and his wretched performance is the broadest such chasm in recent historical memory. This guy makes Bill Clinton look like a paragon of integrity and follow-through.

>From health care to torture to the economy to war, Obama has reneged on pledges real and implied. So timid and so owned is he that he trembles in fear of offending, of all things, the government of Turkey. Obama has officially reneged on his campaign promise to acknowledge the Armenian genocide. When a president doesn't have the nerve to annoy the Turks, why does he bother to show up for work in the morning?

I thought Mr. Rall was a member of the Socialist Workers Party.

There Ted the Red goes again - I’m beginning to think the left actually took all those promises as promises.

Seems like he’s attacking from the left.

Obama is useless. Worse than that, he's dangerous. Which is why, if he has any patriotism left after the thousands of meetings he has sat through with corporate contributors, blood-sucking lobbyists and corrupt politicians, he ought to step down now -- before he drags us further into the abyss.

Obama is cute. He is charming. But there is something rotten inside him. Unlike the Republicans who backed George W. Bush, I won't follow a terrible leader just because I voted for him. Obama has revealed himself. He is a monster, and he should remove himself from power.

While I agree that a great “bait and switch” has been pushed on the American voter by a coalition of Democrats and the MSM; I know Joe Bidden would not be an even worse disaster as POTUS. He is the ultimate loose cannon flying from one side of the deck to the other and totally out of control due to his huge ego.

No, Ted Rall calls on Obama to resign. Your headline is misleading. Furthermore, I’m pretty sure that even Ted Rall doesn’t mean it seriously. What, he thinks Joe Biden would be further to the left?

Hey, you remember the last eight years? Remember how frickin’ stupid the barking moonbats looked when they pounced on George W. Bush at ever opportunity over the most ridiculous pretexts? Yeah, they sure looked like boneheaded retards.

Don’t be like them, m’kay?

Anyone who was dumb enough to believe 0’s promises and vote for him deserves whatever misery they get from him, and he is going to deliver misery beyond anything recorded in American history.

“Unlike the Republicans who backed George W. Bush, I won’t follow a terrible leader just because I voted for him.”

Whenever a leftist says somebody is doing something “just because” of something, you know he’s lying.

Which is actually rather unnecessary, as leftists like all the time about everything.

Joe Biden is already a profound disaster, even to Obama! I have to completely disagree with you on Biden.

This is the most alarming part - his vision of "Thought Police"

In practice, Obama wants to let government goons snatch you, me and anyone else they deem annoying off the street. Preventive detention is the classic defining characteristic of a military dictatorship. Because dictatorial regimes rely on fear rather than consensus, their priority is self-preservation rather than improving their people's lives. They worry obsessively over the one thing they can't control, what George Orwell called "thoughtcrime" -- contempt for rulers that might someday translate to direct action.

True. But it is a good rant overall about the current occupant of the WH.

A Example of why the left is inhabited by the brain-dead.

He’s said enough to convince me that he really plans to do it, if he can get away with it.

Unlike GWB...BO can not stand to be criticized. And he will take anyone down that does until someone stops him.

Exactly. Anyone who castigated Bush (AND the Dhimmicrats who supported it) for the Patriot Act, which was merely intelligence gathering, this doctrine of Obammie the Commie's — to DETAIN upon SUSPICION — should be far more offensive.

Yet, barely a squeak from those mice that roar.
