For American presidents, moments of great tragedy are often also moments of great opportunity.
Ronald Reagan and the Challenger explosion, George W. Bush and 9/11 — these are powerful events that presidents can use to unify and inspire the American people.
And then there’s Barack Obama.
While his fellow Washington, D.C., residents were still “sheltering in place” on Monday morning, as police sought a potential second and third shooter from the Navy Yard shooting, President Obama took the podium to give a speech attacking “extremist” Republicans for not supporting Obamacare.
People were bleeding and dying literally within walking distance, but that didn’t stop the president from questioning the basic, human decency of people who disagree with his policies.
“As far as the budget goes,” Obama said in the speech on the economy that should have been postponed, “it’s time for responsible Republicans who share these goals — and there are a number of folks out there who I think are decent ... I think genuinely want to see the economy grow and want what’s best for the American people.”
Got that, Republicans? Some of you are “decent.” The rest? Those who want to repeal Obamacare, who are trying to apply the law equally for all people — including members of Congress?
Well, you’re less than “decent,” apparently. According to the president of the United States, you genuinely don’t “want what’s best for the American people.”
Thanks, Mr. President! What a terrific message for an America under fire.
By the way, using the president’s standards...

I’m so indecent. I mean, you wouldn’t even believe...
Obama may very well wind up uniting all of us...... We’re ALL going to be pissed off at him before he’s done.
Obama is a divider. He wants one side to win. He wants the other side to be wiped from the face of the earth. You know who you are.
Divide and conquer.
-- Phillip II, King of Macedon
Community organizers are all about dividing, not uniting.
I am one of those who he, and his minions, want to wipe from the face of the earth.
The leader of my country hates me. Plain and simple. He does not want me to have upward mobility. He does not want my kids to have ONE 40-hour job, but demands they have TWO 30-hour jobs. He hates my politics. He hates my skin color. He hates my limited successes and aspiration. He hates my rights under the Bill of Rights. He hates my religion and forces adoption and tolerance of another religion that hates me. He hates my ideas and ideals. I am a minority of ONE and my leader is actively discriminating against me. He has implanted active members of the Muslim Brotherhood into high positions in his regime - and they hate me. He hates the military that protects my rights and offers my protection. He hates my county.....and I hardly ever use the word “hate” since it is so strong, but in this case it is very fitting. Divisive? Does not want unity if it includes conservative principles? You betcha!
We pray for Obama’s salvation and conversion every day. It happened to Saul/Paul; it can happen for Obama, too.
The way to fight back is through the state legislatures:

With God’s grace...the State Legislatures are our oly hope. Washington is so thoroughly corrupt, the Constitution must re-established as the rock-solid foundation of our country. Only the states can accomplish it now, before the immigration tsunami turns the red states blue. The window of opportunity is closing.

The federal government has stomped on all our toes - harsh rebuke is warranted - at the very least.
Your post = well stated. hummingbird
SERKIT Can I Post your statement on my blog? I would give attribution, You put it so well, I believe others would love to read it.
The best way to fix a broken system is to SHUT IT DOWN, and THEN fix it.
Newt SHUT DOWN the US Federal Government in the 1990’s and it WORKED!
The Liberal Agenda Media and the Democrats boo-hooed to this day, but Newt achieved success.

The only way to force a spoiled brat to behave is to punish, punish, punish.
The worst punishment that a Democrat, or RINO can imagine is to take away their ability to spend our tax dollars.
The best way to do that is to shutdown the non-essental parts of the US Federal Government, starting with mothballing Air Force One.
Go for it!
Anyone paying attention in 2004 to who Obama’s friends and mentors were his whole life would have had proof positive of who Barack Hussein Obama was and would be and would have have realized that Obama was being thrust into the presidency to destroy the country. The phrase “Hope and change” was a cynical, rather apparent inside joke. A similar inside joke was the coinage of the phrase “Arab Spring.” Another was “shovel ready jobs.”
