Writes Allahpundit: Its practically a taunt.
Indeed, I find it breathtaking. The man is supposed to be the leader of the country, the president of ALL the people, not just the ones who agree with him, and hes basically over half the nation to just shut up and fall in line.
In fact, the president and his White House have been so irresponsible this week, what with their, punch back twice as hard nonsense (good going, there, chief) and so blatantly authoritarian with their tell us about dissent in casual conversation that I begin to wonder if we are not being deliberately baited by our president if he is not trying to cause a commotion in his own country? Okay, Im going to say it; hes either the stupidest and most incompetent president, or the most tyrannically-disposed egoist, ever to hold the office. And, umm I dont think hes stupid.
Were redefining arrogant, here.
Kathryn Jean Lopez calls him the American Caesar (that is what Czar means, isnt it?): For Barack Obama, democracy appears to be a distraction.

A Blue Dog Dem says: Obama, dude, stop doing what youre doing. Yeah, and maybe take a few minutes to look at the good war in Afghanistan, and the big-hearted troops you command, too!
Do you know why the Democrats are acting so unconcerned about the possibility of paying a price for ignoring their constituents? Why they do not fear retribution at the voting polls? Why theyre telling us to sit down and shut up? Theyre about to become the third largest employer in the world and bosses dont get fired by the workers. So, you just shut up, even if you are a constituent, and even if you have called the office to talk about healthcare and been ignored! Just sit down and learn your place, doctor.
Our courageous leadership: Kiddie Shields and Hallelujahs, and what separation of church and state you talking about, again? Oh thaaat! Thats just a stick to beat the right with. We can pray and even campaign in churches, if we want!
