Micro level, person to person, I’d say there has been steady improvement every year from the 1970’s through today.

Macro level, I think it has grown worse over the last several years.

Can you imagine having a parent who’s a pathological liar?

“I love you, kids.”

“Hmm-hmm. Sure pops.”

In general, if it would gratuitously alarm the public, it isn’t such a wonderful idea. That was such a bad prank to play and it is tragic it ended up like it did.

Like, I love you kids and I’m gonna bash your head in just to teach you some respect...

there is a point where affairs pass from mere human misjudgment to the demonic.

Obama’s jaw-dropping fatuity reminds me of Bill “Sinkmaster” Clinton standing by his desk next to a flunkie, his last days in the Oval Office, and having the temerity to say, “We did some good here.” You remember, the spot where he assaulted recently widowed Katherine Willey?
And recall that his aides were busy at this time removing all the ‘W’s from the WH computer keyboards.
‘rats. Eff ‘em! Along with any Republicrats who kowtow to them.

he and his comrades have whipped up a racial hatred in USA that I’ve never seen in my entire life

right on the verge of open steet warfare in a number of places

and I’ve never ever seen so many ‘white’ people angry and hostile towards ‘black people’ (in reaction to all this street violence)

to say racial relations are better is a clear sign someone’s been puffing a whole lot on that famous WH opium pipe. A whole lot.

Please pray for America. We have a tremendous amount of work to do to restore some racial harmony... (and our economy and jobs and our defenses and and and...)

They’re headed to hell, definitely figuratively and as best as we can see, literally too.

We might not be able to stop them from going there. What we can do is fight being pulled along with them on that wicked journey.

obama knows he’s a compulsive liar, he would choke on the truth. Of course he may well be insane and believe the truth is what he declares it to be, but I don’t believe that, I believe he is evil.

That is a Hopium pipe, remember :-)

I wrote a song some time back in praise of America’s rednecks, but I defined rednecks by attitude, not race. We really do need more rednecks and less rappers. And that can be done without a change in anybody’s outward color.

Industrial grade evil doesn’t even fool itself, except as glimpses of a game that it is resolved not to quit.

The devil knows he can not beat God. But he makes the most intense game of looking like it that he can.

The scriptures, and people in general, tell of hell as a locale of horrible suffering. And it’s that. What is less recognized is that it is a locale of resolute wickedness. That somehow even with all of God’s anger poured on it, it finds room to have glee somehow. And that makes it very dangerous.

He also claims to be an American citizen who swore to uphold the rule of law

Does anyone beside Charles krauthammer take him seriously?

“Is he delusional or is he consciously lying in order to minimize the malign effects of his presidency?”

Yes, and yes. IMHO he is truly a bonafide narcissist: grandiosity, never sorry, never wrong, deflect blame, lack of true empathy,

The honor is more badly lacking in Barack than in previous presidents — even Jimmy Carter looks the paragon of virtue in Barack’s shadow. That remembered, our situation could be worse yet and it is God, not Barack, that should get the recognition of this fact.

Evil is a stand-apart thing in many ways. He’s not even fighting America, he is fighting God. America is only caught in the crossfire.

A whole lot of ‘white’ Americans suffered discrimination and denials for many jobs and places in schools and colleges and universities and varieties of career paths and sometimes even financing, etc etc... for two entire generations, in support of “affirmative action” for black people

The untold story is just how many “white” Americans gave up (or allowed the politicians to take from them) major advantages or oppportunities, things that adversely impacted their entire lives as well as those of any families they may have had

in order to ‘help black people’

Now we have ‘black people’ in the highest governmental positions and what do we get? NOT an end to all this racist discrimination against ‘white’ citizens in USA, which would have been an OUTSTANDING historical action and which would have guaranteed Obama’s historical legacy for all time. And which could have healed many wounds. And which could very well have finally ended racial discrimination on any basis against all Americans for all time, or nearly so.

What do we get? A whipping up of racism among the “black” community... by the very “black” politicos we entrusted to
“serve all Americans” well.

Tragic. Simply tragic. When the history of this time is written, it won’t just be about “Obama’s lost opportunities” .. it will be about all the terrible damage inflicted on USA during these years.

Pray for America.

No leadership at all

So, a reporter asks him a sort of ‘edgy’ question to make himself/herself feel like a real ‘journalist’... Then when given such an obviously bald faced lie, they fail to laugh in his face; making them just another sycophant.

‘What do we get? A whipping up of racism among the “black” community... by the very “black” politicos we entrusted to
“serve all Americans” well.’

Obama is doing what community organizers do.

“’The organizer’s first job is to create the issues or problems,’ and ‘organizations must be based on many issues.’ The organizer ‘must first rub raw the resentments of the people of the community; fan the latent hostilities of many of the people to the point of overt expression. He must search out controversy and issues, rather than avoid them, for unless there is controversy people are not concerned enough to act. . . . An organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontent.’”

Saul Alinsky
