The O-buma Legacy: WWWIII

Barack O-buma plans to throw open the gates and bow down, as he has done previously to various foreign leaders, to kow tow and drive Israel from within the walls of our village and into the clutches of terrorists.  The O-bumites are now in league with mass murderers.  Their brethren are infamous.  The following is from Wikipedia.

The traitors in the O-buma White House want to create a post-Israel scenario that will force the US to choose between engaging in a protracted, unwinnable Mideast war or surrendering without firing a shot and vacating the region altogether.  Either way, this is the next big step in the progressives' planned downward gyre for America.

The Gateway Pundit's Jim Hoft reports in his article "Rewarding Evil" that the Palestinian Hamas and Fatah terrorist factions signed a truce on Wednesday May 4, 2011. Neither of the terror factions recognize Israel and neither terror organization has plans to reject terrorist activities against the Jewish people.

In recognition of this terrorist truce, Barack Obama yesterday gave the Palestinian people Old Jerusalem. Old Jerusalem contains the most sacred holy sites of Christianity.  Arrogant, considering that they are not his to give away in the first place.  Further, all of the Christian and Jewish holy sites will now be under Hamas control thanks to Barack Obama.

Charles Krauthammer's article "The News in Obama's Speech" reveals that O-buma attended Jimmy Carter's school of weaseling and waffling.  He has come full circle from condemning the philosophies and policies of former president George W. Bush to adopting them.  'It will be the policy of the United States to promote reform across the region, and to support transitions to democracy.'

With this Barack Obama openly, unreservedly and without a trace of irony or self-reflection adopts the Bush Doctrine, which made the spread of democracy the key U.S. objective in the Middle East.

'Too many leaders in the region tried to direct their people’s grievances elsewhere. The West was blamed as the source of all ills.'

Note how even Obama’s rationale matches Bush’s. Bush argued that because the roots of 9/11 were to be found in the deflected anger of repressed Middle Eastern peoples, our response would require a democratic transformation of the region.

'We have a stake not just in the stability of nations, but in the self-determination of individuals.'

A fine critique of exactly the kind of “realism” the Obama administration prided itself for having practiced in its first two years.  How far did this concession to Bush go? Note Obama’s example of the democratization we’re aiming for. He actually said:

'In Iraq, we see the promise of a multiethnic, multisectarian democracy. There, the Iraqi people have rejected the perils of political violence for a democratic process . . . Iraq is poised to play a key role in the region.'

Hail the Bush-Obama doctrine.

O-buma and company are dismantling the republic from within and without.  They realize that backing Israel into a corner will produce one certain result: it will trigger WWIII.  They remember Hafez Assad lobbing artillery shells into downtown Tel Aviv from the Golan Heights.  They are also perceptive enough to realize that when it happens again, the Israelis will go nuclear.

May your gods be with you.

Ineptitude or Treason, Perhaps a bit of Both?

Perhaps the place to begin is with the boy genius's assessment of matters in Egypt.  His blundering has severely alienated our most reliable Mideastern Arab ally Saudi Arabia.  The following is from a report by Tom Brokaw.  Brokaw's sentiments seem to align a bit to the left of center; still, he had the integrity to broadcast an honest and accurate report concerning the ineptitude of a president whom he has supported.

After remarking on the difficulty of establishing democracy in the Middle East, Brokaw said that Defense Secretary Robert Gates “will face some tough questions in this region about the American intentions going on now with all this new turmoil, especially in an area where the United States has such big stakes politically and economically.”

“And a lot of those questions presumably will come from King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia,” reported Brokaw on the Nightly News. “I was told on the way in here that the Saudis are so unhappy with the Obama administration for the way it pushed out President Mubarak of Egypt that it sent high level emissaries to China and Russia to tell those two countries that Saudi Arabia now is prepared to do more business with them.”

It’s almost as if Mr. Obama is trying to lose all our country’s allies in the Middle East.   (emphasis added)  Almost indeed!  We will be in deep kimchee if we lose access to Saudi oil.  The One is a national embarrassment who brings to mind memories of Jimmy Carter's lusting in his heart for the Polish people.

O-buma's foreign policy weakens us diplomatically, militarily, and strategically; his domestic policy weakens us economically and balkanizes us politically.  He has made our porous border with Mexico exponentially worse and derides border security advocates.  However, only days before this tacky sarcasm, The Investigative Project on Terrorism had reported (April 29, 2011) about the sentencing of a Somali terrorist who had been smuggling his fellow Jihadists into the US for some time.

Ahmed Muhammed Dhakane pleaded guilty in November to two counts of making false statements on his 2008 asylum application. On the application, Dhakane failed to report his connections to two terrorist organizations and that he ran a smuggling operation out of a hotel in Brazil which brought members of one of those terrorist groups into the U.S.
 
Mark Wagoner, an FBI special agent assigned to the San Antonio Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), told the court Thursday that Dhakane provided the names of seven of his smuggling clients linked to the Somali-based terrorist organizations Al-Ittihad Al-Islami (AIAI), Council of Islamic Courts (CIC), and al-Shabaab.

While these individuals have been named, Dhakane was also involved in smuggling hundreds of individuals into the United States working for another well-known smuggler based out of São Paulo...the total number of people affiliated with terrorist groups whom Dhakane smuggled into the country isn't known.

Smooth move, O-buma.  Rather than a moat with alligators, perhaps we would be better served by stocking the Rio Grande with crocodiles.  Nonetheless, it is not immediately clear whether this sort of buffoonery is merely a smoke screen that hides treasonous motivation.  In another treacherous act, Barack, Harry Reid, and Nancy Pelosi ran up another one trillion dollars in debt, and the results of this squandering have proved detrimental. 

This article is titled "A Verdict on Obama's 'Stimulus' Plan."  Its synopsis of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act's dubious accomplishments is distressing.  Our benchmark results suggest that the ARRA created/saved approximately 450 thousand state and local government jobs and destroyed/forestalled roughly one million private sector jobs. State and local government jobs were saved because ARRA funds were largely used to offset state revenue shortfalls and Medicaid increases rather than boost private sector employment. The majority of destroyed/forestalled jobs were in growth industries including health, education, professional and business services.

So the American people borrowed and spent close to a trillion dollars to destroy a net of more than one-half million jobs. Does President Obama understand this? I very much doubt it. When he expressed puzzlement at the idea that the stimulus money may not have been well-spent, and said that "spending equals stimulus," he betrayed a shocking level of economic ignorance.  The chart below shows that the taxpayers bought half a million bureaucrats and lost one million private sector jobs by borrowing another trillion dollars.

Was this mere incompetence or was it an intentional act to facilitate national bankruptcy? 

"Jobs must be our number one focus," this was from Obama's first State of the Union address, and what a fine job he's done of it too.  Perhaps if he would stop hindering the oil companies, they could create over a million new jobs and generate over $194 billion in revenue for the government, increase petroleum supplies, and the price of gasoline could fall.  That is, it could be done if the left-wingers who have been controlling this president allow us to get out of the green oxcart that we are riding into ruin and allow capitalism's hot rod engine to resume pulling our economic train.

May your gods be with you.
