The People Cry out for a Czar but Obama Gives Them a Commissar.

The people sense that the federal Leviathan is so ponderous that it cannot cope with a potentially existential health threat. They commonly think that the problem is that the government is so big and multi-tentacled that it cannot communicate, it cannot coordinate, it cannot cope.

They are right about the size being a problem but size is not the root problem, it is a symptom. The gross federal Leviathan on is a symptom of an ideology that is all wrong. So long as that ideology could be described as "liberalism" the miraculous tool powers of our free enterprise system and our constitutional federal system could cope with the creeping intrusions of government. For many years after the war we were as a nation profitable enough to squander much of our profits. But the line has been crossed, the government is now thoroughly out of control and as a consequence the country is spinning out of control and the people recognize it.

So the people ask for a Czar to take charge, organize and bring coherence to the government's actions because Ebola threatens their lives and it is obvious that the government is stepping all over itself and committing life-threatening mistake after life-threatening mistake. Our media tells us that the right man can pull it all together and maybe that is true for short time for a particular problem such as a regional disaster like a hurricane or even a potential pestilence. But Obama has not given us a man of required caliber, instead he is given us a hack, not a field general but a commissar designed to spy on and control real generals in the field.

Joe Stalin sent his commissars out to terrorize Soviet soldiers fighting the Nazis on the Eastern front so that the war was fought utterly ruthlessly for the salvation of Bolshevism, no matter the human cost. It was the commissars who forced the suicide attacks, who ran punishment battalions over mine fields, who set up machine guns to murder retreating Soviet soldiers. The commissars were there to enforce communist ideology and to make sure that the Kremlin's orders concerning how the war would be fought were obeyed without the slightest deviation. They were constantly on guard for ideological deviancy and terrorized the Soviet army into top down obedience in thought as well as deed.

Ron Klain, the presidents appointee, is grotesquely unqualified for his position because he is possessed of no public health experience or expertise whatsoever. Rather he has been styled by the Obama media as a "strategist." One of his strategies was the Gore campaign to overturn George Bush's election victory. His entire career has been to serve as a loyal factotum to Democrat power brokers. Like Obama, he has never managed, successfully or otherwise, any serious undertaking except elections. We need a man of expertise, experience, and integrity and Ron Klain is singularly lacking in all of these character traits.

Like Stalin, Obama sacrifices competence for ideological purity. Obama places American lives at risk in the service of his Marxist ideology.

"Yep, and even MORE meetings with even LESS action resulting from all of the meetings gives the impression that things are happening when in fact nothing is happening but meetings".

You forgot networking, then breaking into focus groups after a break.

The writing style is arcane - is it schtick? He uses a plethora of ten letter words, run on sentences and poorly constructed logic to make a minor point...Obolas Czars are more like Soviet Commissar’s than Czars...if that passes for deep thought here on FR then have at it.

We get a “political hack”. This shows how serious the resident is in actually solving a problem.
