The lonely road of Barack Obama
Libradex ^ | PTD

Posted on 12/05/2010 2:23:37 PM PST by ssugasl231

Eleanor Clift just posted an article to Newsweek entitled: Why Obama needs to seize the opportunity to reclaim his convictions and re-energize the Democratic base.

Clift, and many other liberals, are really puzzling until their puzzlers are sore: where is the Barack Obama we elected? Moveon.org is even running ads with the theme "Bring Obama Back", asking for the Obama in Oct 2008...

Obama...doesn’t care about the “rules” that make America.

Everybody-right and left, keeps being presumptious about what he will do, should do or could do.

His very strength politically, is his disregard of the traditions of American politics. His opponents call him “dumb” and “Obozo” because of his apparent lack of knowledge and understanding of American political tradition.

Truth be told..because he is so ignorant and disregarding of American political tradition, he is very, very dangerous. He demonstrates a studied disregard of convention and tradition that the Rinicratic Oligarchy can’t see or won’t admit to. Consequently he is beyond their control.

In this he demonstrates his true roots as a Marxist/Leninist..which the leading American Political Elite are incapable of identifying, let alone deal with intelligently and constructively.

He has ammassed, so far, more power to DC than the combination of Lincoln, Wilson, FDR and Johnson-at considerable expense to Flyover Country.

Unless the Tea Party and the recent election, are just the start of something much bigger...he will do what he can to make them a flash in the pan...and the DC Elite will enable every effort in that regard.

But even before that, we can see the seeds of a wandering man in his childhood: abandoned by his father at age 3, and then abandoned by his mother at age 10 who continued to live in Indonesia while he lived in Hawaii with his grandparents. This greatly affected his personality and set the course for who he is today.

This is the explanation for everything. Had the man not reached so far you might feel sorry for him. But he did and we don't. A kid like this can only grow into a damaged man. He was angry that his mom chose her new husband and baby daughter over him and rightly so. But that did not entitle him to the WH. People who were SOOOO jazzed to elect the "first" something got him there. I can only hope that when the next "first" comes up that it is a well adjusted person with a strong family.

I’m new to FR, I didn’t know what the policy was. Most of the articles on that site libradex (a buddy turned me on to it) are very long, and some contain graphs and charts. How do you post those?

Thanks.

“The old Soviet Union failed. Why do the same to the USA?”

SOROS wants to OWN us via short sales, just as he has done to other countries. I wonder what he has promised Zero.

It is a typo. It should read “ronery.”

Many blogs are chock full of spyware, malware, bots, hepatitis and AIDS.

And typhoid.

I've heard that some blogs can give you typhoid.

Strong post. Of course, being right is sometimes difficult. Stay away from DU posting. Or, maybe, just go for it to see the disruption!

The article on libradex is not about Obama being lonely, it’s the fact that he has no convictions, so he can’t return to liberal ones.

He will be completely ineffective come January, with maybe a spurt of energy next year when elections roll around.

By that time, I doubt many on the left or middle will support him. But the problem for Democrats...there is NO CHANCE they can primary him.

Frank Rich , Eleanor Clift , Paul Krugman and Carville have all recently criticized Barry in public.
Barry hasn’t even been in office for two years and they are really turning on him.

From Clift’s Newsweek article :
“An adviser who worked on the campaign e-mailed me recently about his disappointment with Obama,
saying that the president is ill-equipped psychologically for what it would take to be a hero,
namely to slay a dragon:
“He can’t slay anything, sadly, except the legacy of FDR.”

Yes, typhus is a problem with some blogs, blocks, and rocks.
They have no fox in socks.

Here’s Eleanor Clift before Wikileaks:

http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/pj-gladnick/2010/11/22/eleanor-clift-obama-lacks-feel-politics

That’s a hit piece clearing the way for Hillary.

After Wikileaks, she wants to find the old Obama, the Hopey-Changy Guy, THE ONE! Hillary is toast. Hillary’s public statement about the Secretary of state job being her last public office is just Hillary’s way of trying to stay on. She’s signalling that she will drop her attacks through the Clinton Machine if she can stay on. Frankly, if I were Obama, I would finish the job and get rid of her for good while I had the chance. RATS SHOULD KNOW NOT TO TRUST EACHATHER—JUST LIOKE TROTSKY AND LENIN.
