We've Figured Him Out (Ben Stein nails Obama!)
American Spectator ^ | 7/27/2009 | Ben Stein

Posted on 07/27/2009 6:42:33 AM PDT by milwguy

Why is President Barack Obama in such a hurry to get his socialized medicine bill passed?

Because he and his cunning circle realize some basic truths:

The American people in their unimaginable kindness and trust voted for a pig in a poke in 2008. They wanted so much to believe Barack Obama was somehow better and different from other ultra-leftists that they simply took him on faith.

They ignored his anti-white writings in his books. They ignored his quiet acceptance of hysterical anti-American diatribes by his minister, Jeremiah Wright.

They ignored his refusal to explain years at a time of his life as a student. They ignored his ultra-left record as a "community organizer," Illinois state legislator, and Senator.

The American people ignored his total zero of an academic record as a student and teacher, his complete lack of scholarship when he was being touted as a scholar.

Now, the American people are starting to wake up to the truth. Barack Obama is a super likeable super leftist, not a fan of this country, way, way too cozy with the terrorist leaders in the Middle East, way beyond naïveté, all the way into active destruction of our interests and our allies and our future.

It’s about time. Let’s hope for that tide to continue to turn.

While ignorance can be touted as one reason why 52% of the electorate voted for Barry, another has to be seething Bush hate. Bush was reviled and every bad thing was Bush’s fault this view was carefully cultivated by a Bush hating media. For example, despite the current economic mess, my mother-in-law insists that things were far worse under Bush and that good times are right around the corner with Obama.

Agreed.Gibbs was especially idiotic and desparate.

0bama is going to NC and some other state doing more town hall meetings with democratic plants from ACORN.

Ben hit the nail on the head. But, Ben, see how diverse we are? Diversity for it's own sake is the now-thing!

You’re correct. The anti- bush as the boogey man alinsky strategy, worked swimmingly for them.

Can anyone tell me if it was Gibbs or 0bama that

related the story that the cruel white cop handcuffed the poor old professor behind his back,
but the merciful black cop listened to his pleas and changed the cuffs to the front.

Now, Americans are waking up to the truth that ObamaCare basically means that every time you are sick or injured, you will have a clerk from the Department of Motor Vehicles telling your doctor what he can and cannot do.

This is the EXACT message we need to drive home.

“This is the EXACT message we need to drive home.”

Yes, and we need to remind every democrat in the House, especially the Blue Dogs, that Pelosi comes from an ultra-liberal district and she will sink their chances of re-election while she skates. Pelosi’s ability to bully democrat members of congress into voting for her agenda has to be diminished.

I have a theory on Presidential elections since the TV age...except for 1972, the better-looking man has won the Presidency. Sunny Eisenhower against the dour Stevenson, young Kennedy against 5-o'clock-shadow Nixon, Johnson/Goldwater and Nixon/Humphrey a wash, idealist Carter against RINO Ford, Reagan simply looking better than anybody, Dems nominating the only ugly passionless Greek in America against GHW Bush, handsome babyboomer Clinton against old fogeys Bush and Dole, George W. Bush against Algore and Lurch Kerry, and so on...

The Dem party handlers realized that you couldn't win a Presidential election with an ugly candidate. So, they pluck an obscure community organizer out of Chicago, put him on a script ("HOPEYCHANGEY!!!"), and he outprettied John McCain.

What B. Hussein is doing now (Socialized Medicine, surrender of American sovereignty, the elimination of take-home pay, etc.) is no different than what Clinton, algore, or Lurch would've done if they had the chance. Now the Dems have got a pretty boy to push their message...and a half-Black man to boot for guilty white liberals.

But that’s all you need to run a country.

Your theory shows why the MSM and libs are shaking in their boots over Palin and want her painted dumb.

Easy to ignore his anti-white attitudes when the Republicans running against him did too.

“...Barack Obama is a super likeable super leftist...”

I don't know about "super" likable, but he has been charming. The way all narcissists are charming. That is their ultimate and usually best talent and profession and they work on it harder than anything else. They realize that charm is the way they manipulate people. Once you are no longer in adoration of them, or you cause them some problem, you are out of their "fog." You are not needed. Or, in the case of Obama...thrown under the bus.

When the whole of the country no longer adores Obama he will not be able to handle it. Narcissists first blame everyone else, then they run and hide. A narcissist cannot endure being exposed or unliked. Perhaps Obama will suffer a mental breakdown or, at the least, a meltdown.

I have said it a thousand times and I wish the powers that be would provide some way that our leaders must undergo a stringent personality test. The way that business tests people for administrative or management jobs. The test reveals a person's proclivity for telling the truth, being able to work with others as a team player, and being able to withstand criticism, among other skills for leadership.

Obama would have failed any such test. His emotional makeup is weak and immature as though he stopped developing emotionally when he was a child. Sadly, many other politicians now in office would not have passed such a test.

But it is time we have stable, smart, humble, and honorable people in Congress who remember they work for us and not vice-versa! A personality test would weed out the most unworthy and un-trustworthy...such as Obama whose narcissistic personality would have been revealed and rendered him ineligible for leadership or an administrative position in any environment.

Whereas I agree with you that much of what Obama is pushing is straight from the democrat playbook, I do believe that he is Machiavellian well beyond the normal socialistic demeanor of the democrats. He is a dangerous ideologue, and his past is so obscure that one cannot help wondering how long he has had an agenda, and who has been backing him.
