Three significant
historical events have been eclipsed by Obama: 1) Jimmy Carter will no longer be
looked upon as the worst president in American history; 2) Richard Nixon and
Bill Clinton will no longer be recognized as the greatest liars in presidential
history; 3) Clinton’s stain on Monica’s dress, and what that did to the White
House in general and the office of the president specifically, will forever pale
in comparison to the stain and stench of Obama.
I need not spend
much time on the failure of Obama as president. His tenure has been a failure on
every measurable level. So much so, in fact, that some of the staunchest, most
respected liberal Democrats and Democratic supporters have not only openly
criticized him – some even more harshly than this essayist – but they have
called for him to step down.
Richard Nixon’s
words “I am not a crook,” punctuated with his involvement in Watergate, and Bill
Clinton’s finger-wagging as he told one of the most pathetic lies in
presidential history, in the aftermath of Obama, will be viewed as mere
prevarications.
Mr. Nixon and
Clinton lied to save their backsides. Although, I would argue there are no
plausible explanations for doing what they did, I could entertain arguments
pursuant to understanding their rationales for lying. But in the case of Obama,
he lies because he is a liar. He doesn’t only lie to cover his misdeeds – he
lies to get his way. He lies to belittle others and to make himself look
presentable at their expense. He lies about his faith, his associations, his
mother, his father and his wife. He lies and bullies to keep his background
secret. His lying is congenital and compounded by socio-psychological factors of
his life.
Never in my life,
inside or outside of politics, have I witnessed such dishonesty in a political
leader. He is the most mendacious political figure I have ever witnessed. Even
by the low standards of his presidential predecessors, his narcissistic,
contumacious arrogance is unequalled. Using Obama as the bar, Nero would have to
be elevated to sainthood.
As the stock
markets were crashing, taking with them the remaining life saving of untold tens
of thousands, Obama was hosting his own birthday celebration, which was an event
of epicurean splendidness. The shamelessness of the event was that it was not a
state dinner to welcome foreign dignitaries, nor was it to honor an American
accomplishment – it was to honor the Pharaoh, Barack Hussein Obama. The event’s
sole purpose was for the Pharaoh to have his loyal subjects swill wine, indulge
in gluttony and behavior unfit to take place on the property of taxpayers, as
they suffer. It was of a magnitude comparable to that of Tyco CEO Dennis
Kozlowski’s $2 million birthday extravaganza for its pure lack of respect for
the people.
Permit me to
digress momentarily. The U.S. Capitol and the White House were built with the
intent of bringing awe and respect to America and her people. They were also
built with the intent of being the greatest of equalizers. I can tell you,
having personally been to both, there is a moment of awe and humility associated
with being in the presence of the history of those buildings. They are to be
honored and inscribed into our national psyche, not treated as a Saturday night
house party at Chicago’s Cabrini-Green.
The people of
America own that home Obama and his wife continue to debase with their
pan-ghetto behavior.. It is clear that Obama and family view themselves as
royalty, but they’re not. They are employees of “we the people,” who are
suffering because of his failed policies. What message does this behavior send
to those who today are suffering as never before?
What message does
it send to all
Americans who are
struggling? Has anyone stopped to think what the stock market downturn forebodes
for those 80 million baby boomers who will be retiring in the next period of
years? Is there a snowball’s chance in the Sahara that every news program on the
air would applaud this behavior if it were George W. Bush? To that point, do you
remember the media thrashing Bush took for having a barbecue at the White House?

Like Nero – who
was only slightly less debaucherous than Caligula – with wine on his lips Obama
treated “we the people” the way Caligula treated those over whom he lorded.

Many in America
wanted to be proud when the first person of color was elected president, but
instead, they have been witness to a congenital liar, a woman who has been
ashamed of America her entire life, failed policies, intimidation and a
commonality hitherto not witnessed in political leaders. He and his wife view
their life at our expense as an entitlement – while America’s people go
homeless, hungry and unemployed.
