Is President Obama For Real?

I can't figure out if Obama really takes his job as the President of the United States seriously or whether he thinks being the Top Dem Comedian is the most urgent of his priorities.

Maybe he thinks presenting the image of the "cool" President who steadfastly fuels class warfare and then gallantly fights the good fight on behalf of the downtrodden will save his political neck... Thus returning him to Washington for another disastrous 4 year stint as CEO of the ever growing Leviathan.

The following snippet from NationalJounal sums it up.
If President Obama's news conference accomplished anything on Wednesday afternoon, it underscored, in striking tones, his strategy for winning the debt ceiling fight with Republicans: Make it a clash of classes.
  • Rich versus Poor.
  • Us versus Them.
  • Those who support children, food safety, medical research and, presumably, puppies and apple pie versus the rich fat cats who don't.
In Obama's world, Democrats are for kids and Republicans are for corporate jets...

Without a doubt the President is disingenuously playing the class warfare card. Reasonable people will see through it for what it is.

In either case it is reasonable to question the man's seriousness and commitment to safeguarding America's capitalist values. The very ones that have heretofore been responsible for making this the greatest, most productive, influential, and prosperous nation in the world.

Video clip from Obama's news conference Wednesday


The requests by the opposing leadership in Washington to make cuts in the budget prior to raising the debt ceiling, or increasing taxes is reasonable, it is common sense, and it is time those in Washington {speaking of the progressives here} to show the real leadership it will take to right our sinking ship. The very sinking ship Obama administration tries so hard not to accept any responsibility for.

    Class warfare gets his rabid lefty base up on their hind legs, but he's alienating the middle.

    I wonder what his campaign strategy will be? Plenty of demagoguery, I'm sure.

    It's just a steppingstone to U.N. Secretary-General. Which is just a steppingstone to king of the world.

    Class warfare has been going on for decades and will continue as long as they can keep the American people believing it works.

    I'm sick of this debt-ceiling calamity talk. If they don't get serious and cut the damn spending I swear I'll scream loud enough for them to hear me in DC. This crap talk that raising taxes is going to fix all our problems is bull. We need to get hold of the out of control spending FIRST, stop the fraud and waste and CUT every single department. IF that's not enough, then we can talk about raising taxes. But this tax and spend crap---I'm DONE!

    Silver - For sure there will be demagoguery of the highest {lowest} caliber!

    Bastiatarian - I think your analysis is correct.

    He is positioning for Ruler of "The New World Order"

    All the rational person can say is... Please reason intervene before it is too late.

    Pamela - I, like you, am disgusted with the political gamesmanship and the BS the progressives spoon feed the people.

    Basically everything the progressives are selling comes from the Bolshevik playbook and essentially it is all a great big lie.

    However, uneducated people {just as the progressives banked on] will by almost any line of progressive BS.

    Which is precisely why America needs vocal and rational people like yourself to speak up and proclaim the truth loudly.

    Pamela, I remember you giving the same advice when I was about to give it up. I thank you for that and encourage you to re-energize and become an even louder voice for our capitalist heritage and our American values of Liberty and limited government.

    Your voice needs to be heard!

When and How Will it End?

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Birthplace of Independent Conservatism This is America. We are an English speaking nation. We have distinct and traditional American cultural values. We have some Americans in our population who have difficulty speaking a coherent sentence. We have many who cannot construct a complete and proper sentence. Yet we find the time and the money to educate youth in Arabic and Arabic culture. Mind you this is a Federal Grant program and limited to only five select school districts. At least for now. At a cost of 1.3 millions dollars students on these select district will be required,  you heard {read} right, required as mandatory part of their curriculum to learn Arabic.

Thoughts On the Civil War and What Precipitated It...

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth Over at Contra O'Reilly Will Hart has been running a interesting series on the Civil War and what the primary causes were. Historians continue to disagree with the root, or primary causes. However it is generally accepted among knowledgeable and unbiased experts that slavery had very little to do with the onset of the War Between the States. Causes were primarily economic and constitutional. Will, in his posts has done a good job of pointing this out with supporting documentation. This site offers the following, a July 2013 article by David Hirsch in support of Will Hart's arguments. Arguments this site wholly concurs with. Arthur Hirsch's recent article about the Battle of Gettysburg reveals a disturbing ignorance of the political dynamics that brought this nation to a war that 150 years later remains the most cataclysmic event in our history ("A defining day relived," July 2). It accepts the sh...

( Reuters ) - Global leaders on Saturday arranged a round of emergency calls to discuss the twin debt crises in Europe and the United States that are causing turmoil in financial markets . After a week that saw $2.5 trillion wiped off global stock markets, they are under pressure to show political leadership and reassure markets that Western governments have both the will and ability to reduce their huge and growing public debt loads. French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who chairs the G7/G20 group of leading economies, conferred with Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron ahead of a call planned for this weekend by G7 finance ministers and central bankers.
