End of O's cowardly lyin'

We the people of the United States owe Scott Brown's sup porters a huge debt of gratitude. They didn't merely elect a senator. They ripped the façade off the Obama presidency.

Just as Dorothy and Toto exposed the ordinary man behind the curtain in "The Wizard of Oz," the voters in Massachusetts revealed that, in this White House, there is no there there.

It's all smoke and mirrors, bells and whistles, held together with glib talk, Chicago politics and an audacious sense of entitlement.

At the center is a young and talented celebrity whose worldview, we now know, is an incoherent jumble of poses and big-government instincts. His self-aggrandizing ambition exceeds his ability by so much that he is making a mess of everything he touches.

[dearolddad]

I would not say he is all that “talented”.

I think the dolt is educated way, way beyond his ability to comprehend almost any situation. ( The results of rampant affirmative action)

[timetostand]

Make no mistake. This isn’t innocent stupidity on his part. He may not be very smart, but he doesn’t have to be. He is an irrationally hate-filled person who has created a self-definition and a persona fashioned from bits of Muslim African thug-dictator, bits of Hugo Chavez (who also considers himself black and presented himself as the great hope of blacks in Venezuela), and bits of the programs of Mao and Pol Pot.<

I concur! Now is not the time for extended celebration! a battle has been won in MA but the war is just heating up! The O Cancer has got to be completely destroyed and removed and the Republic has to be rebuilt after decades of anti Constitutional abuse!!

It is perfect, especially dealing with a sociopath like Obama, whose whole life from the very beginning has been about inventing himself, choosing personae based on their attractiveness to his audience, forgetting the old ones and moving on to the next one when it becomes convenient to do so. Experience would be a handicap in such a situation, because it might give him a track record and prevent people from being able to believe his latest persona.

[Rocky]

I have always felt that Obama and the radical left that has taken over the Dem party were in a marriage of convenience. They thought he had the personal figurehead powers to get their programs through, since most of them are grubby, unattractive figures (see Barney Frank) who would have trouble building the socialist man myth that they need to get support for these programs under our system. He, on the other hand, saw himself riding their power base to get what he had always wanted, absolute individual power to take his revenge on the US and the West in general.

I like your analysis. However, there is another group of leftists and radicals that hoped to use him. Not the oldtimer leftists in politics like Barney Frank, but the outsiders. Bill Ayers and the guy that founded ACORN (can't remember his name at the moment), for example. They want the destruction of America, too. But surely they know Obama well enough to know that he can't pull it off by himself. He's all talk. Behind the scenes, someone has to give him the ideas. Maybe some of the czars will act as conduits?

The key to destroying America is amassing insurmountable debt, and printing money, which will cause the destruction of the life savings of millions of people. We are well on our way. Whatever he does next, it is toward this end.

[uncbob]

I continue to be amazed that more people did not see through Obama from the beginning.

Even with the ass kissing MSM there were still enough clues

But the dumbass public was fixating on Palin

[TrueFact]

Agreed. I believe we are still in danger, even though their tactics and goals have now been exposed to the general public. It strikes me that the infiltrators (Ayers and his ilk) jumped the gun by putting their man in office a generation too soon, probably because they are old and wanted to see the harvest of the seeds they planted two and even three generations ago in the era of socialism in the early 20th century. We may be blessed because of that fact (that they jumped the gun) because it opened eyes and opened mouths of those who may now see the infiltration of socialism and communism and should, hopefully, now act against those who subvert our educational system by propagandizing the little minds of our children to their own agenda. We all must get involved with our schools to fix the problem long term.

[TrueFact]

For everyone’s information: a little help from Google on the definition of “sociopath”...it’s a little scary:

Profile of the Sociopath

This website summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.

* Glibness and Superficial Charm

* Manipulative and Conning
They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.

* Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as “their right.”

* Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.

* Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.

* Shallow Emotions
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.

* Incapacity for Love

* Need for Stimulation
Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.

* Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others’ feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.

* Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.

* Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet “gets by” by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.

* Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others’ lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.

* Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.

* Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.

* Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

I think you are spot on

[starlifter]

Regrettably, I think you are right.

And I don’t want to know how you came up with your nom de Freep.

[PGalt]

OUTSTANDING article by Michael Goodwin on the lightweight-socialist, the propagandists-created con-man. Thanks for posting.

[greyfoxx39]

Ping to a great article.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

The next two years will be very sad ones for Obama. I just hope he fool doesn’t get us into a shooting war with his inexperience and arrogance.

[opentalk]

bttt

[PuzzledInTX]

I agree with your assessment 100%. Well said. True Fact.

[DCPatriot]

Sorry but it is not the end, it is only the begining. A cornered animal is far more dangerous & reckless.

Look for the lying to go to EXTREME levels.

Exactly what I said this morning. But lying is the least of what I expect to read in "Braking News".

I am very afraid for the safety of the FOUR conservative SCOTUS justices. I would cause of civil war.

I just saw Robert Gibbs on Fox with Chris Wallace.

He’ll be selling Slap-Chops and Sham-Wows on TV after his stint with the Chicago Failure ends shortly after November 2012.

Goodwin’s column beat Krauthammer’s column this week.

[Scanian]

He and “Vince” could change places and there wouldn’t be much difference.

[Scanian]

Glad you liked it.

"Sorry but it is not the end, it is only the begining."

Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
