Obama's 'oh bleep' moment
wnd ^ | December 06, 2008 | Patrice Lewis

Posted on 12/06/2008 11:21:35 AM PST by Red Steel

I've reached a state I never thought I'd feel – pity for Barack Obama.

Yes, really. Now that the challenge and competition and excitement of the campaign is over, reality is hitting and the poor guy is probably having a hissy fit. Imagine the weight of responsibility for the well-being of 300 million people on your shoulders. It's not a position I'd want. And perhaps it's not a position he accurately anticipated. In other words, I suspect he's finding out that being president may not be all it's cracked up to be. Too late now.

I expect my pity for Obama will fade into loathing as soon as he gets his socialistic and inexperienced hands on the reins of government.

-snip-

The pressure on Obama is coming from all fronts. The efforts to get him to cough up a legal, verifiable, official birth certificate must be annoying enough. Who cares about Clause 5 of the 2nd Article of the Constitution requiring him to be a natural born citizen of the United States? For crying out loud, why can't these people just take his word for it? How dare so many millions demand that elusive document? Yet this is an issue that could have staggering consequences.

-snip-

Finally, Obama is now in the difficult position of needing to specify exactly what "changes" he will implement. The trouble with change is that it is frequently unrealistic on a national scale (not always, but most of the time). Obama is probably realizing the mantra of "change" that swept him into office is a two-edged sword.

Happy to oblige.

We all need a good laugh every now and then.

I think that the daily situation briefing is forcing Zer0 to change his underwear six times a day, and he has become paralysed over the enormity of the problems facing the US!

Its one thing to say “Im better than that guy” (which is all he has done)
Its a whole other thing to make decisions that affect others.(Something he has never done)

Ike’s immortal comment on the subject of the presidency comes to mind, “You either have to be an egomaniac or crazy to want to be president.”

Doubtless Bush will fill him in on the real story about terrorism, the economy and international relations. I imagine Obama having an "oh bleep" moment. As in "Oh bleep, what have I gotten myself into?"

Oh, bleep, what have WE gotten ourselves into?

he can always resign if he doesn’t like the job

Obama introduced Biden as the next president when he introduced him as his VP the very first time the two were together in public.

Although he did correct himself, I thought he foretold his belief of the future.

My “Oh, BLEEP!” moment was on November 4th, around 11:00 pm.

Big-ear socialist is worried. He is very very thin-skinned, and along with criticism from the Right, he is starting to get a trickle of criticism here and there from the Left, and it will increase, as he does NOT pull out of Iraq, and does NOT close Gitmo, the Leftist moonbats will be screeching at him. And now these infidels demanding his birth certificate — that is surely annoying him. The prick deserves every bit of it. I hope his whole body starts twitching from the pressure.

We used to have a strong dollar ... Politicians changed that.

Life used to be sacred ... Politicians changed that.

Marriage and family were the basic unit of society ... Politicians changed that.

We used to be respected around the world ... Politicians changed that.

We used to have a strong manufacturing economy ... Politicians changed that.

We used to have lower tax structures ... Politicians changed that.

We used to enjoy more freedoms ... Politicians changed that.

We used to be a large exporter of American-made goods ... Politicians changed that.

We used to be an openly Christian nation ... Politicians changed that.

We used to teach patriotism in schools ... Politicians changed that.

We used to educate children in schools ... Politicians changed that.

We used to enjoy freedom of speech ... Politicians changed that.

We used to enforce LEGAL citizenship ... Politicians changed that.

We used to have affordable food & gas prices ... Politicians changed that, too.

What hasn't changed, is politicians promising change if you will elect them.

fit. Imagine the weight of responsibility for the well-being of 300 million people on your shoulders AND then
imagine those 300 million people put at risk because the previous Democratic President had a foreign policy that included bribary, blackmail, blindness so 6 months an an economy that is going south fast.
Imagine that you are visiting a group of school children and an aide whispers in your ear that the pentagon and the Twin towers had just been attacked.

Imagine the economy once the attack came, and on top of that realizing that your Defense department was left with no human intel and very little equipment. The 8 years had been spent making sure everyone went through diversity training and that everyone was green.

Imagine all of this, and then add fighting the enemy abroad and at home. The Democrats and the terrorists at home, the leftists and the terrorists abroad. Imagine all of this and then on top of that, add being called a liar, a hitler etc etc - not by the fringe left but members of Congress and not behind closed doors but in speeches overseas.

Just imagine, and then add to that, three major storms and other natural desasters.

I hope, that this president gets a taste of just what George Bush went through. Just a taste, I wouldn’t wish my worst enemy to be treated as George Bush was treated.

He has a free-falling economy and an electorate with no appetite for socialism. They have obviously found this out over the uproar with the bailouts.

What really scares the bejeejus out of me is what happens when this incompetent, unqualified weakling is faced with a crisis of the magnitude of a series of coordinated, simultaneous nuclear, chemical or biological attacks on a dozen major American cities? Think Jericho.

I’m more worried about the moral decline of a nation that could elect him. Editor of Harvard law review with nothing scholarly... all personal history a secret, three law firms to keep a frigging birth certificate a secret, association with unrepentant flag stomping terrorists and black supremacy freaks, Islamic past, active in voter fraud and in radicalizing school children, “present” votes, support of live birth child murder. This is the day the waters receded and the planet began to heal... we are the ones we’ve beem waiting for... Rezko... million dollar support for Odinga mass murderer... and the list goes on.

Man alive has America been taken for a ride by a Chicago Mack Daddy!!!... and of course look at the converse...

Never mind war hero McCain (who’s rightfully not everybody’s soup du jour), but take a look at what they did to Sarah Palin, corruption buster... supposedly guilty (but later cleared) of firing (instead of hiring!!!)a drunk, child-tasering relative, accused of not knowing what Africa is...

Why feel sorry for Obama? As someone already indicated, he’s not the kind that cares. Feel sorry about America, home of the brave and land of the free, now in the hands of moonbats, conmen, metro-sexual press. In the hands of a man who’s so secretive that his own birth certificate gets treated like the Coca Cola formula. Not a leader of men, but a client of lawyers to protect something as easy and simple and natural as 1+1=2.

America has become the land where a leader who promised transparency takes it all the way to the Supreme Court to protect the secrecy of a birth certificate!! And he’ll have the biggest inauguration bash in history...

I suspect he's finding out that being president may not be all it's cracked up to be.

I suspect that, if he had known that the economy would be in such a mess just before he was to become president, that he would've opted to stay in the senate.

It's very easy decision to run for president and think that you can do as well as the next senator or governor when it comes to running the country. When things are going OK, it's very easy to think that things will be just as good when you take over, and that, hopefully, they won't get worse.

What's happened in this election cycle that the absolutely worst candidate got elected at the same time that the country went into the the absolutely worst case scenario for the country.

Anybody that holds any illusions that "the one" and the team he's selected will bring this country out of the misery that we're currently experiencing, is just plain delusional and needs to get his/her head examined.

The best thing that could happen for this country right about now is for Obama to resign from the "office of the president elect" and from his future office, the "presidency", and to let some grownups who know what their doing to run the country. I am not kidding.

Maybe there is another reason why he wasn't saying the pledge of allegiance in that campaign photo. He considers himself a British Subject From Birth he said so. Possibly British agency's have given him all he has and they have paved the way for all he has attained.

After reading about British rights in the Federalist Papers, I found that England holds sovereign regard on their claim to citizens. Crown protected citizens and their succeeding descendants through blood inheritance. Mother England never fully accepted American Independence.

Now I understand the meaning behind the recurring practice of tracing blood lines to the British Crown of winning Presidents. Ever noticed with every ‘change’ of administration MSM reports,in various ways, a common ancestor discovery of some sort? I saw this happen with Bill Clinton, G. Bush, and just recently I read a report of BHO and Cheney whose related with common ancestry.

When GW Bush was elected there was an entire News segment on an event in which the Queen took Bush on a personal tour of her vaulted books of genealogical records. The report was that the Queen was showing him their common ancestors who were related. Now I understand why this was not just a ceremonial jesture. Mother England has always sought to blood tie herself through common descendants of America. The outcome was/is to secure allegiance and influence American leadership to eventually rule over America indirectly than possibly directly.

So ultimately Mother England finally has her DIRECT blood tied native son in BHO. Through him ‘they’ will have direct rule over America. His role must have been a long plan in the making by others.

It's possible the Annenberg foundation, Ford foundations, and others have developed specific programs to GROW special individuals for Mother England's future use. Through indirect support of chosen children and family's it's possible they helped support BHO since boyhood. Didn't BHO’s mother work for the Ford foundation? What about Walter Annenberg that foundations father? It turns Walter Annenberg was appointed under President Reagan as Ambassidor to the COURT OF ST. JAMES directly tied to Mother England.

The deliberate anti-American display during the campaign of not saying the Pledge of Alliegence was a overt message to his sponsor Mother England. Who thru him will finally realize their long sought goal the ruler ship of America.

I really wonder how many black people would have voted for this affirmativea ction clown had the sycophantic media told them that both sides of Obama’s family were in the slaving industry, as in providers and users of slaves? Not many, I would wager. The media is now the fifth column enemy of We The People, and that ‘We’ includes ALL colors, races, religoins, and sexes.

I never fell sorry for those in public life. They asked for it and deserve everything they get.
