Obama, the Great
American Thinker ^ | February 15, 2012 | William L. Gensert

Posted on 02/15/2012 8:51:59 AM PST by NCjim

History is replete with great men like Barack Obama -- transformational leaders of wide renown, seeking to shape history in their own image, never realizing it is not great men who make history; it is history which makes great men.

Our president has never been more than an epigone of a great man. And the cold glare of history will see Barack Obama for the man he truly is -- and it will not matter what the meaning of "is" is.

"The world will little note, nor long remember" Barack Obama, because contrary to his own opinion, he is the nation's worst president. He is an arrogant, hyper-partisan, race-baiting, committed socialist -- a man whose deliberate attempts to transform the nation into a banana republic, with pictures of himself on the side of every building, have been thwarted only by his need to win one more election.

I can see Jimmy Carter smiling already, having handily won the battle to be penultimate -- if only by default.

It should be a sobering thought that 52.5 percent of the electorate bought the Bravo Sierra Obama was selling in 2008. How's the Hope and Change workin’ out for ya, America? How about four more years of it, eh?

The RINOs are too stupid, even now, to understand who Barry truly is and the Media wants a socialist/Marxist utopia (that they stupidly think they can manipulate the politicians). Funny, but the politicians have other ideas and end up manipulating the Media. The RINOs think they will share the power with Barry and his minions, but they will be neutered and discarded to the gut wagon of history.

If we're lucky, that will turn out to be true. If we're lucky, Obama will be forgotten as a benign historical footnote, a real life Inspector Clouseau, over his head and bumbling, but harmless. I think it's far more likely that Obama will be the most studied, most storied, and most featured villain in historical accounts of the fall of the last great hope of western civilization. Obama will be our Caligula and Nero, with an intellect just short of Roman "Senator" Incitatus'.

Sounds like Mongo has not read the article.

It's like ObamaCare. You have to post about the article to find out what's in the article.

The USA has gone socialist.

BHO will go down in history as the new FDR.

To a follower of the enlightenment and inalienable rights, that`s bad. To the majority of Americans, it`s good.

The Obama Era: "The destruction of America by a traitor elected by a brainwashed, self loathing majority".

Obama "is an arrogant, hyper-partisan, race-baiting, committed socialist -- a man whose deliberate attempts to transform the nation into a banana republic, with pictures of himself on the side of every building, have been thwarted only by his need to win one more election."

Is there anyone with a smidgeon of intelligence, perception or common sense, who is not a racist, a communist or a socialist, who didn't clearly understand this before Obama the America hating racist was elected?

Obama I The Incompetent

Well, I look at it like this. Men got the world in this mess. Men don't know how to get the world out of this mess. It is only going to get worse and worse until the end times. Only Jesus Christ will fix all this. And when He comes the 2d time, He is coming to rule with a rod of iron. There are going to be a lot of surprised nonbelievers out there. All those who said He ain't real are going to find out for real that He is who He said He was! The Christ. He is the only way this stinking, polluted, dirty world will ever get “fixed.”

My hope is that this sorry sack of excrement lives a long life - exposed as the fake that he is - wandering the nation in loincloths, fearful of being pelted with dog poop, plugging his ears to filter the profanities being hurled at his sorry cretinistic caricature by all who see him.

I loathe, dispise, spit upon, and generally could give less than half a sh*t about this ....this.....thing.

Obama and his administration believe that they are superior to the little people, us. They feel they should rule, and we should shut up and follow. They think they know how the world should be, and they are putting those ideas into practice. Sadly, less than ten percent of Obama’s people have had had any real world jobs. Instead of making the world a better place, they are quickly destroying the world we have and replacing it with a failed nation.

For example, we need cleaner cars, so they build a volt with our money. The volt is overpriced and won’t go very far. Using our money to make something that is useless is a form of stealing. That’s what Obama and his gang are doing, stealing everything they can but most of all our future.
