Barack Obama: Maliciousness. Not Incompetence.
Red State ^ | 07/28/2014 | Erick Erickson

Posted on 07/28/2014 10:48:34 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

For the longest time I have chosen to chalk our President’s stumbles, bumbles, and disasters up to incompetence. He is in over his head. He is inexperienced. He is out of his league. It is hard to accept otherwise.

But it is clearer and clearer that is not true. It is clear that President Obama’s disastrous policies are premised not in incompetence, but in maliciousness. Our President — and he is our President — is not a stumbler and a bumbler, but a Nero who when not persecuting Christians, plays golf while the world burns.

President Obama has surrounded himself with a group of people who comport to his own world view. That world view is very simple to explain: Barack Obama and his advisors belief that in order for the world to be safer, they must make the United States less safe. In order for the world to be stable, the United States must be less stable.

In short, Barack Obama blames America first.

The swarms of illegal immigrants across the border is all part of the plan.

Letting tensions between Israel and Hamas flare into a hot war is all part of the plan.

Sending mixed signals to Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and others is all part of the plan.

But there is more to it.

He has surrounded himself with some of the worst people imaginable. People who are sitting up nights trying to think up ways to wreck this country, promote the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, while obumbler is riding around the country on Air Force One or playing golf.

The secret service sees these people day in and day out, yet say or do nothing.

The CIA either knows or is so incompetent that it should be scrapped.

The NSA would have to know. Even if they can not bug him, they surely bug most of his contacts.

The top brass in the military knows.

The majority of Congress knows.

You can add your own suspects to the list.

So why does no one do anything about it?

Oh, I know! Someone might get angry and say ugly things about any whistle blower! Bad bad.

What if George Washington would not fight because the British might get mad and shoot back?

We are a gutless nation more interested in Hillary and Bill Clinton’s sex life than we are in the things that will determine the future of this country.

He hides behind Malicious Incompetence.

His Maliciousness causes him not to advance. I doubt he’s ever had an original thought. He is just a teenager wrapped up in Mom Jeans. The only serious thought he has is how to keep out of trouble.

Right... but it isn’t JUST malice... “O” has done too many things that betray his utter incompetence.

After all. why campaign for President of the US only AFTER sealing all the records of your work and education?

I am certain his ‘education’ is a joke

Yes he is diabolical. While he plays golf, parties, vacation, the wheels are all working behind the scenes at the change. But the change involves far more than America. Obama sees himself as the Won that is forming the new web for the world. That world will be run and ruled by people like him. That is why the flood of illegals, the meddling in other countries and ousting leaders. All part of the plan. There will be no borders soon. He is purposefully diluting Americanism and national identity.

Even today Rush didn’t understand what Madeline Albright was saying. That reset button to Russia was to try and woo Putin into the new world cabal. It was not about pandering to Russia. All this takes place behind the scenes. The only reason Obama isn’t bootlicking Putin and attacking him instead, is to marginalize and isolate him into seeing it their way. So the full world scale Alinsky is on.

Just watch, Kerry is going to give a major speech on India. India must not be ready to join the cabal yet. This ought to be good. Kerry will start lightly insulting them in this speech and it will build as days go by.

This whole admin is smoke and mirrors. They don’t mind that we have trouble getting it. It makes their job easier.

So much of it has to do with his dysfunctional beginnings. Let's face it, his mother was no prize, and his upbringing was fractured with different messages. In my opinion, he is the son of Frank Marshall Davis...not Obama. And, he knows it. That is the first lie of a mountain of lies. He was an angry young man, and surrounded by family members...including Frank, who formed his leftist beliefs.

But, the voters are the ones who are really at fault for electing him. He is who he is, and there are many like him, and there was plenty of “community organizing” to get him in office. Those who should have known better to cast a vote for him ............shame on them. A list of shame of his voters should be made. I will start with Colin Powell, who voted for race only. A true disappointment, along with others.

Pure malevolence, born of resentment and spite despite all the advantages he has had. This country hasn’t lived up to his utopian, socialist expectations and was never good enough for him. So he wants to tear it down.

That.

Finally, a commentator says what we have thought since ‘07.

Dear Lord, help us, we are under attack from within.

Well..duh? I’m absolutely astonished people, even solid conservatives, have refused to see what O. is up to. It’s been clear since his Apology Tour and his bowing and scraping before foreign heads of state that he’s allied with his former minister’s radical “God Damn America” cohort. I guess most Americans just can’t comprehend a President who would go against the best interests of his own country. Low information voters have destroyed this country by electing one — twice!

Hanlon’s Razor: “Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.”

Grey’s Law: “Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.”

And therein lies the answer to what is really going on.

Who is so powerful and has so many insider connections that they can remove, hide or erase records in so many states, schools, universities, federal agencies, foreign and domestic. simultaneously?

Think about it. That is an accomplishment that we would have said was impossible.

Most of us have been saying it for some time. Make no mistake, he is here to wreck America. Only idiot liberals cannot figure this out. Rather stupid, hiring a man to destroy your own country. Especially when he made it painfully-clear ahead of time.

*Their* country is some Marxist utopia - IOW a lie, a delusional place where they build and prosper upon a foundation of lies - not the real America that a free people know and love.

They voted for and whole-heartedly approve of the transformation, because their hearts are dark. They want America to die, because light and truth is not in them.
