Why Won't Obama Hear Our Call?
FOX News ^ | January 28, 2010 | The Stiletto

In a speech at the University of Denver in 2008 just days before the Super Tuesday primaries, then-Senator Barack Obama said:

"Democrats will win in November and build a majority in Congress not by nominating a candidate who will unite the other party against us, but by choosing one who can unite this country around a movement for change.”

Well, a year into his presidency Obama finds Republicans -- in both houses of Congress -- as well as moderate and independent voters, united against his expensive and unpopular agenda, and he made it clear that the White House is "not hitting a reset button at all," as his adviser Valerie Jarrett asserted on “Meet the Press” in an interview that previewed many of the themes and rationales that were in Obama’s State of the Union address.

So the pundits who predicted Obama would pivot, move to the center and admit his mistakes were wrong ...

Because he's a marxist and we're supposed to just shut up and deal with it?

He hears us but he has other plans. It is naieve to think he will change his plans unless he is forced to do so. He does not care about his political future, we have to focus on congress. We also need to make as many voters as possible aware of what is happening.

Ever use a two way radio? When you have the button down to speak, you can’t hear the other end of the conversation.

"WHY WON'T ZERO HEAR OUR CALL"

Who cares. If we haven't figured out by now that the idiot could care less what we think then we never will.

Listen up!

We have been observing Obama through the lens of traditional American politics. His arrogant, inexplicable behavior has evoked questions which we have answered as thoughtful, but gullible people.

i.e.
He is a narcissist.
He is a racist.
He is stupid.
He is brilliant.
He has a majority.
He is only concerned with his place in history as the first black president.

WRONG!
He doesn’t care about any group, any race, any second term.
His mission is to leave the Nation in an abyss - from which its survival will depend on more socialist programs, bankruptcy and government control - in perpetuity.

His legacy will be called Progressive...but it will be Marxism.

Why??

Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Rush is (of course) right: this is an issue of mental illness.

He doesn’t want to hear, that’s the problem. This whole fiasco today is merely window dressing so that he can say he reached out and was rejected. I tried, but the evil mean Republicans would not come to meet me halfway. This exercise is nothing but a continuation of the scam..............

Actually, you don’t have to pick just one of those alternatives. Many or perhaps all of them are true.

He is a malignant narcissist, mentally insane.

He is a racist.

He is a Communist.

He is a Muslim.

He hates America and England and Europe and wants to destroy the Christian West.

He is probably an illegal alien, since he never bothered to regain citizenship after relinquishing it.

He is stupid, lazy, and incompetent, an affirmative action baby.

By that last, I don’t mean that his stupidity causes these problems, but that it explains why, even with a supermajority and whole gangs of corrupt radicals working for him, he had a run of about six months of successfully wrecking the country but then began to stall.

He may have done enough to wreck it anyway, but we are lucky that he is dumb, incompetent, lazy, and insane, because that makes it harder for him to achieve his goals.

Hussein wishes to destroy this nation, creating as many dependent people as possible. More dependence upon Big Brother means the advent of a Marxist state and democrat party rule. That is his agenda, NOT doing what is best for the nation and the American people. When will FOX news and so many others actually understand it!!!

His legacy will be like that of all the other dictators of the world; he will be loved and admired by all who did no have to suffer under him.
