Obama's White House is Falling Down - co-written by Daniel Greenfield & Juanita Rant, 07-15-09

WOW! A mainstream article written with some truth. Why? Oh what a surprise - because they are not American tainted mainstream media, that's why! They are from Canada and not afraid to say it like they see it. They are not wearing the rose-colored glasses. This is a clear description of how other countries are really on the outside looking in. Can our country be saved before being completely destroyed from within? j.

Obama's

  White House is Falling Down

 By

  Daniel Greenfield Thursday, June 11, 2009

 

 In the sixth month of his presidency, Obama has turned an

 economic downturn into an economic disaster, taking over and trashing entire

 companies, and driving the nation deep into deficit spending expected to pass

$10 Trillion dollars.

 

 Abroad, Obama seems to have no other mode except to continue on

 with his endless campaign, confusing speechmaking with diplomacy. It is

 natural enough that Obama, who built his entire campaign on high profile

 public speeches reported on by an adoring press, understands how to do nothing

 else but that.

 

 Ego driven photo op appearances and clueless treatment of

 foreign dignitaries.

 

 While the press is still chewing over Obama's Cairo speech,

 this celebrity style coverage ignores the fact that Obama's endless world

 tour is not actually accomplishing anything. Instead his combination of ego

 driven photo op appearances and clueless treatment of foreign dignitaries

 have alienated many of America 's traditional allies. Those who

 aren't being quietly angry at Obama, like Brown, Merkel or Netanyahu, instead think of

 him as absurdly lightweight, as Sarkozy, King Abdullah or Putin do.

 

 While his officials carry out their dirty economic deeds, Obama responds to

 any and every crisis as if it were a Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland musical,

 with a cry of, "Let's put on a show." Thus far, Obama has put on

 "shows" across America , Europe and the Middle East. And what the adoring media coverage

 neglects to cover, is that Obama's shows have solved absolutely nothing.

 They have served only as high profile entertainment.

 

 Neither alienating America ' s traditional allies, through a combination of arrogant bullying and

 ignorance, nor appeasing America 's enemies, has yielded any actual

 results. Nor does it seem likely to. Islamic terrorism is not going anywhere,

 neither are the nuclear threats from North Korea and Iran . While Obama keeps

 smiling, the global situation keeps growing more grim.

 

 At home, if Obama was elected as depression era entertainment, the charm of his smiles and

 his constant appearances on magazine covers appear to be wearing thin

 on the American public. Despite the shrill attacks on Rush Limbaugh or

 the Republican Enemy of the Weak-- the Democratic party of 2009, is polling a lot

 like the Republican party of 2008. The Democrats have suddenly become the

 incumbents, and the only accomplishment they can point to is lavish deficit

 spending, often on behalf of the very same corporations and causes they once

 postured against.

 

 The European Union Parliament's swing to the right

 cannot be credited to Obama, though doubtlessly some European

 voters seeing socialist economic crisis management on display in the world's

 richest country decided they wanted none of it, but it is part of a general

 turning against federalism. And Obama's entire program is dependent

 on heavily entrenching federalism at the expense of individual and state's

 rights. Yet that is precisely his achilles heel with independent voters who

 are polling against more taxes and expanded government. And no amount of

 speeches by Obama can wish away his 18 czars or the national debt he has

 foisted on generation after generation of the American people.

 

 That leaves Obama with a choice between socialism and the independent voter. And

 thus far he has chosen socialism.

 

 Obama's tactic of hijacking Bush Administration era

 policies on the economy and the War on Terror, and exploiting them

 as trojan horses to promote his own agenda, have left him coping with a

 backlash from his own party, as well as general Republican opposition.

 

And further, the main reason why he has no respect for the Constitution whereby govt is accountable and answers to the people. He wants the people to answer to the govt – like a Dictatorship. No surprise there, since he was raised and mentored in other countries and people who hate America. And why he pays millions to law firms to hide his birth and school records because he’s not a US Citizen and he knows this, but for someone who thinks he’s above our Constitution, this is normal behavior. So do you wonder why he sided with the ousted Bolivian tyrant, or why he sides against Israel?

So, how’s that “hopey-changey” thing working out for you still? Did these people have a blindfold on when voting on election day? Do you think they were they “informed” or just bering “opinionated”?

Were they looking forward, or were they still looking back and blaming?!

 His Czars are meant to function as the bones in an executive infrastructure

 accountable to no one, but a lack of accountability isn't just another word

 for tyranny, but for incompetence. A functional chain of command is

 accountable at multiple levels if it is to function effectively. Obama's White House

 by contrast is in a state of over-organized chaos, the sort of organized

 disorganization that undisciplined egotistical leftists naturally create for

 themselves, complete with multiple overlapping levels of authority and no one

 in charge but the man at the top, who's too busy doing other things to

 actually be in charge.

And further, this shows the main reason why he has no respect for the Constitution whereby government is accountable and answers to the people. He wants the people to answer to the government – like a Dictatorship. No surprise there, since he was raised and mentored in other countries and people who hate America. And why he pays millions to law firms to hide his birth and school records because he’s not a US Citizen and he knows this, but for someone who thinks he’s above our Constitution, this is normal behavior. So do you wonder why he sided with the ousted Bolivian tyrant, or why he sides against Israel? Other countries who helped put him Office here pulled the biggest coup over the USA and are laughing their butts off right now.

 Dennis Blair as National Intelligence, who collaborated

 with the Muslim genocide of Christians in East Timor, trying

 to muscle out the CIA to create his own intelligence network, is typical of the

 kind of chaos being spawned by every chief in an expanding government

 bureaucracy working to make sure that all the Indians answer to him. Similarly the

 National Security Council wrestling with the State Department, highlighted

 by Samantha Power getting her own specially created NSC position to butt

 heads with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, illustrates the state of conflict

 and chaos in American foreign affairs. A state of chaos so pervasive that

 incompetence has now become commonplace, and no one can even be found to

 double check the spelling of a Russian word that is meant to be the theme of

 American's diplomatic reconstruction with Russia, or to pick out a gift for

 the visiting British Prime Minister.

 

 The death of Chrysler at the hands of Fiat and the UAW.

 

 Meanwhile on the economy, Obama exploited the ongoing

  bailouts, transforming them from bailouts into takeovers

 meant to shift the balance of power in what had been a democracy and

 socially engineer not only corporations, but the lives of ordinary Americans. But

 the public's patience with corporate bailouts is at an end, most Americans were

 never happy with them to begin with, and want them to end. The death of

 Chrysler at the hands of Fiat and the UAW might look like a victory in the

 union ranks, but it doesn't play too well outside Detroit . And tacking

 on CAFE standards that will kill the pickup truck and the SUV will badly erode

 Obama in the swing states, if exploited properly in 2010 and 2012. Despite

 the constant media barrage, orchestrated out of the White House, the public

 is growing disenchanted with the performance of Obama and the

  Democrats.

 

 With unemployment booming and the economy dropping,

  the jobs aren't there and the spending is out of control. Republicans today

  are polling better on ethics and the economy, than the Democrats are. That

  shows a trend which is likely to register in the mid-term elections in 2010,

  in the same way that the EU parliamentary elections served as a shock to the system.

 

 In the opposition, Republicans are free to embrace the rhetoric

  of change, to champion reform and push libertarian ideas about the size and

  scope of government. In turn all Obama has is his celebrity fueled media

  spectacle world tour. A charade now serving as a parallel to the depression

  era entertainment that functioned as escapism in a dour

 time. But before long, it may be Obama that the American public will want to

 escape from.

 A shallow, manipulative and egotistical amateur who is in

 over his head.

 

 Obama has tried to play Lincoln, Reagan, JFK and FDR-- but

 in the end he can only play himself, a shallow, manipulative

 and egotistical amateur who is in over his head, and trying to drag the

 country down with him. Obama's White House is falling down and while the

 flashbulbs are still glittering and the parties are going on in D.C. and

 around the world, Obama and the Democratic Congress may be headed for a recession of their own.
