The One Simple Premise at the Root of Every Obama Conspiracy
Atlantic Wire ^ | Sept 13, 2013 | By ELSPETH REEVE AND PHILIP BUMP

Posted on 09/13/2013 3:51:35 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

President Obama's pitch for a military strike in Syria looked so politically clueless that he left supporters and foes alike scratching their heads: What was he thinking? For some, the answer was obvious. Because every conspiracy theory ever concocted about the President — from him being a secret Muslim agent sent from Kenya to take over the government to gay-sex-and-cocaine binges in the backseats of limousines — all make perfect sense if you simply accept the foundational supposition that Obama hates America.

In a Wall Street Journal op-ed on Sunday, Norman Podhoretz argued that Syria showed the swift collapse of American global influence, which was all part of Obama's plan."His foreign policy, far from a dismal failure, is a brilliant success as measured by what he intended all along to accomplish," Podhoretz wrote. This international success follows Obama's great domestic success, which he concealed by "singing the praises of the free-enterprise system he was assiduously working to undermine." On Monday, Rush Limbaugh picked up this idea and ran with it. "[Obama's] always able to convince people he's trying to build this country, he's trying to save this country, trying to revitalize it, while he's doing just the exact opposite," Limbaugh said. By Thursday, Limbaugh was linking the Syria controversy to every other piece of the Obama agenda. Americans are "so appalled and opposed to Obamacare, Obama's economic policies, amnesty, illegal immigration with impunity," Limbaugh said, "because it is a direct assault on the very foundation and fundamentals of the creation and the founding of this country."

Tying Obama's diplomatic embarrassment to all his other policies is easy, because all Obama conspiracy theories rest on the same idea. That Obama is a secret Muslim, or a secret Kenyan, or a religion-hating atheist, or a black radical...

And the only question that remains is why something that is so painfully obvious to us seems to elude others.

That’s the scary thing about Obummer’s ineptness, hatred for our country or the combination of both. With 3+ years to go these other countries have no respect for him or us and this fiasco with Putin and Assad is the proof of it.

I pray we can survive his term and just maybe we can elect a conservative that will turn this around.

The Atlantic has a reader base about the size of a couple large high schools. This thread probably just tripled their readership for this gobbledygook.

Even scarier when you realize that the entire nazi thing, from the drunken brownshirts pushing people around, to much of Europe in smouldering ruins bathed in the stench of death, took just twelve short years.

Amen to that and there seems to be some evidence that this turkey has started building his version of brownshirts.

Obama doesn’t have the brains of a turnip, so how can this all be HIS plan. It ain’t. It’s the plan of two unlikely bedfellows- 1) the trotskyite internationale- the neo-marxist “new age” “radical” dumbing down of the citizenry into an ignorant and superstitious feudal peasantry ready for “diversity” polarization into warring petty regional fiefdoms, and 2) the fascist right wing globalist London-Wall St. oligarchy (plutocracy, aristocracy) who run our government with an “invisible hand” who are presently pondering the fact that their asses are against the wall due to the Internet and revelations of their macchiavelian methods and failures. Both their right wing fascist variant and their left wing environmentalist variant are crashing and burning and their only out is the usual psychotic anti-social gotterdammerung of a WWIII begun over Syria or some other trigger point. Obama is nothing more than an idiot tool of these powerful nazi exploito-finance neo-con social Darwinists. Track who was calling for an invasion of Syria and you’ll be getting close to their HQ. Start with Henry Kissinger. I got popcorn and 7 TV’s on in my living room. Bring it on...

Many people don’t follow politicAl things. Our local major city newspaper tells which stories are the most read. Almost every day the public reads sports and sex stories. Not so much political stories. Unless of course there’s a good sex scandal involving a politician maybe.

It is our nature to expect that our current President will act like all previous Presidents. Our natural instinct is to trust the President to act in the best interests of America. We expect the President to be truthful regarding matters important to our nation.

Obama breaks the Presidential paradigm, which is why Americans can't see what he is. We see Obama through the prism of previous Presidents. His evil is hidden in plain sight.

Obama is so obviously bad at his office that I think the world will not hold the USA to account.

Give them that: they summarize and document the accusations fairly well, if only partially, and only by labeling them “conspiracy theories” do they attempt to discredit them. Well, it ain’t working.

I agree. (Which ain't saying much.) Obama is a typical Communist gensec, like so many before him; they "mean well", that is they would like to takes us all to Nirvana, but in all cases, no exceptions since 1917, they only know power, how to desire it, how to get it, manipulate it, and hold on to it, and know nothing about governing.

Obama is a typical Communist gensec (...); they "mean well" (...) but in all cases (...) know nothing about governing.

He told everyone in 2005 that he didn't have a clue about governing. The media chose to ignore the truth of his statements because he was a rock star.

"The kind of education I received makes you confident in your ability to understand problems — not necessarily to have good answers but at least understand the nature of the questions."

~Senator Barack Obama, 2005

"The way I approach problems is to say, 'What's the optimal solution?' and then work backwards. I like to start with the idea — what's true to me? Or what's the best approximation of true?"

~Senator Barack Obama, 2005

If I’m not mistaken, of all the Commie gensecs, Tito was the only one who had some positive successes governing.
