The Idea That Barack Obama Was Stoned Is Not Outlandish.
The man has lost a lot of weight. He has a history of drug abuse. By his own admission he has been unable to focus on one of the most important events of his life, scheduled to occur in front of 70 million people. His published schedule reveals a pattern of empty hours. His image has deteriorated markedly with dark shadows under his eyes, sagging cheeks, and generally a hangdog look which is commonly associated with drug abusers. He was listless in the debate. He could not maintain eye contact, a signal of drug abuse. He had trouble formulating his words. He was slumped in his posture. His eyes appeared dilated.
If Obama is in fact addicted to some mind altering substance one would expect his physical condition to deteriorate as it apparently has and one would expect his mental and emotional faculties to deteriorate as well. Obama is well known as a procrastinator, witness his dithering over the surge in Afghanistan and his inability to give a go-ahead order when pressed more than once to take out Osama bin Laden. Procrastination and inability to make decisions, of course, are tipoff symptoms of drug abuse. Liberals complain that Obama failed to bring up Romney's alleged "gaffe" about "the 47%" and that omission, which liberals regard to be utterly inexplicable, becomes completely inexplicable if it is considered to be the product of a drug abused mind. This failure which is so important in liberal eyes is merely one failing in a 90 minute epic failure all of which can be perfectly explained as the product of a drug distracted mind.
Obama himself admits to a history of drug abuse. Most observers have simply discounted the possibility that the abuse continues probably because Obama, superficially at least, presents himself as a model family man. But what if his marriage is a sham, a contrivance of Reverend Wright and his "down low" program of finding women who were willing to marry homosexual men and thus provide a cover for the men to remain in the closet? Has Obama been leading a double life as a homosexual? If so, is there anything in that existence which would preclude drug abuse? Would one not be at all surprised if these characteristics ran parallel? If someone is living a lie on one level would not he be expected to live a lie on another level?
What is there in Obama's situation that precludes the diagnosis of drug abuse?
To believe that Obama's drug abuse ceased because he is a family man is to rely on an unreliable determiner. Nor is the abuse of drugs by a president unprecedented, John F. Kennedy abused drugs and it was covered up. In fact, John F. Kennedy was widely regarded to be a model family man and he was a secret drug abuser who was President of the United States. We know from John F. Kennedy's history that merely occupying the White House does not preclude drug abuse. If we consider how few real press conference's Obama's handlers have exposed him to, if one considers his utter dependency upon teleprompters, if one considers the very careful stage management of Obama's public appearances, if one considers the severe limitations on Obama's schedule, one can understand that these rather unusual behaviors are completely consistent with drug abuse and absolutely necessary to conceal drug abuse.
Obama might have been incapable of prepping for this debate because of his inability to concentrate and remain focused. He has canceled his security briefings but not his nocturnal excursions to rub shoulders with celebrities or to raise money from celebrities, the rich, and other "sophisticates." If we consider the people he prefers to associate with, celebrities, entertainers, sports figures, "sophisticates," one sees the upscale drug culture. He has every evening open for these people but no time at night for Netanyahu in no time during the day for Congress. Did he absent himself at dinnertime from Netanyahu to take dinner with his family, on its face a preposterous notion, or was he driven by withdrawal symptoms to re-medicate? The glitterati are the people Obama apparently prefers to play with, but whom is he dependent upon? We all know that he has handlers at the public level who promote and protect his public image. We know that he had a very strong Chief of Staff in Rahm Emanuel and we know further that Obama is notoriously distracted from the day-to-day workings of the government. It is the fact that "Obama care" should properly be called "Pelosi care" because Obama abdicated the particulars to her. Personal control over Obama himself apparently seems to be centered and two women, his wife, who might well be a wife in an arranged marriage for the very purpose of committing a public fraud, and Valerie Jarrett who has been described as Obama's "Rasputin." This syndrome is certainly congruent with a drug dependent personality reliant upon his enablers and controllers.
All of this is speculation, but it does provide a coherent explanation for Obama's conduct in office and for his public near breakdown at the podium.
Does it occur to anyone that it just might be that Obama is not all that bright? I think that his trainers drowned him in more information than he was able to process or to remember. I think that Obama will do better in the town hall format but will be swamped in the final debate again.
victim.
tepid excuses
“I have been perplexed all day as to how his handlers allowed him to take the stage looking as ashen and haggard as he did.”
Obama looks like a sick man to me. He think he has some severe mental and/or physical problems. An experienced politician/debater does not stand there looking at his shoes like he did last night. Something is up with this guy.
Agree. and I said the same last night right after te debate:

LOL @ Post 27!
A guy called in Medved today and said that Obama lives virtually on Air Force 1. This is pressurized to 8000 feet.
His "hypothesis" is that with a body used to 8000 feet altitude now operating at 5000 feet for the debate would have a beneficial impact.
Or my hypothesis, that Al Gore is a bigger idiot on matters of environment that we give him "credit" for.
About a week ago, Obama himself came out and said that Romney was a very good debater and that he was only fair, thus lowering the bar for his own performance and raising the expectation that Romney should do very well!
He just didn’t understand that Romney meant business going into this debate.
That sort of psychodelic animation triggers vertigo! Whoa! I wonder if it bothers folks w/seizure disorder?
Classic coke head look
You’re giving drug addicts a bad name. Obama is far, far worse.
I told my wife that he appeared sedated. NYT called him pres Xanax. I think it’s true.
My guess would be freebase/cocaine use. The same stuff that did Whitney Houston in. He has admitted to using it in the past. It’s the sort of thing that he doesn’t need to be doing everyday but more or less going on binges every now and then when the pressure is too much.
Reduced motivation:
Panorama and Anxiety:
Sleepy eyes:
Dry mouth:
Increased appetite:
Decreased sex drive:
Well stated.
While drugs most assuredly could be a factor, I think the real culprit is incompetence.
Ozone is our first affirmative action president.
The head on collision of Murphy’s Law and the Peter Principle.
He looked like a coke addict needing his fix. If so, I bet he will be higher than a kite for the next debate.
10. Obama was injected with amphetamines or something before the debate and they wore off about 20 minutes in.
Here in Chicago, word on the street for the last month has been that Valerie Jarrett was specifically tasked with getting Obama off coke and other drugs before the debates so that he would not embarrass himself on stage for an hour and a half. So, word is that Obama’s been detoxing since at least September. This explains how haggard he’s looked and how prickly he’s acted for a while now…it’s what addicts look and act like when they’re cut off from their drugs.
Remember that a President can have whatever drugs he wants. The Secret Service are not there to keep the president from breaking the law, they are just there to keep him alive. Obama’s main drug suppliers are the junior staffers who work in the White House who go to Lafayette Park and buy him whatever he wants…and he also gets special deliveries from his friend Bobby Titcombe in Hawaii, who brings him “fish and poi” to the White House (that’s Hawaiian slang for “weed and coke”).
To get through the almost two hours of being on TV, Obama looks like he needed a big injection of beta-blockers and/or amphetamines.
If you noticed at the beginning of the debate he was talking fast, acting erratic, and blinking like CRAZY he was still jazzed up by whatever they gave him. About twenty minutes later, it seems like the adrenaline in his system from being in front of the crowd might have caused the uppers to wear off…and his energy levels collapsed after that.
By the end of the debate, Obama looked like he was aching for a new fix. This could be the reason Michelle Obama rushed him off stage and skipped the traditional “let’s waive to the crowd for a while” schtick. She could tell he needed to get out of sight because he totally lost it out there.
Al Gore’s excuse made him look really stupid from saying it, not to say hie intelligence wasn’t already questionable, but he has now officially made himself a big joke in conservative circles. Oh wait, he made himself a bigger joke in conservative circles.
stoned enuf to thing he is a civil war figure?
