Brilliant comments under the article!

Obama and his adherents have more in common with the typical banana republic junta members or the chieftains of some backwards African country taking the money from minerals or humanitarian aide for their own parties and mansions. Or like the elite Party members or dictators in failed socialist countries of the past, or N.Korea today. Except that they are far more demeaning of their country (usually a leader claims to like his country and people- even while exploiting them.) The Obamas seem from the first day of the campaign to have nothing but contempt for a large part of America and indeed the US itself.

In the late Ming dynasty cultural "elite" was notoriously corrupt. Most were barely literate and had no real ability to actually understand or interpret the great classical texts which scholars were expected to know in and out, and from memory. They were generally arrogant and usually felt entitled, though their actual output, if any, was of very, very low quality. There were a number of more competent, qualified scholars, but they often gave up because sleaze was so deeply rooted in elite circles and the government that they could not consciously have anything to do with it. Things are much the same today with Obama and his liberal colleagues. They're poorly educated and usually unburdened by common sense, though they claim that a university degree and the love of hearing their own voices passes are being erudite. Nor do they especially wish to keep up or work on the ills of the country, they're so convinced of their own superiority that they can't fathom that the rest of the world does not stand in awe of their brilliance.

Obama, like all Liberal-elites, is actually tone deaf to the common person. Look at the guy. A privileged upbringing, doors opened to the best schools because of affirmative action allocations, a free pass academically because of affirmative action, never had a real job that didn't involve selling/arranging favors for money, short stints doing nothing in the Illinois State Senate and 145 days in the US Senate and then an MSM steamrolled election over an absolutely inept John McCain. Elevated to the White House with a Nobel Prize for nothing under his arm, he has proven himself to be lazy, ineffectual, duplicitous, pathologically narcissistic, petulant, inarticulate and apparently drug addled. He has demonstrated no leadership, love of America, respect for his office or understanding of the American people. He has fallen flat on his face in international relations and commands no respect from our allies or fear from our enemies. Now, he actually smells like a loser and his poll numbers are tanking with all but his racist, black base. The sooner he is gone, the sooner the US and the world starts getting better. All he has done is constipate the whole system and we need the laxative of the 2012 elections to rid ourselves of this turd of a president.
