Obama scorched as 'delusional' on final day: 'This is worthy of men in the white coats'
WorldNetDaily ^ | Nov. 5, 2012 | Joe Kovacs

On the final full day of campaigning in the 2012 race for the White House, President Obama is being blasted for a speech he gave in Madison, Wis., a speech his opposition calls “delusional.”

“We tried our ideas. They worked. The economy grew. We created jobs. Deficits went down,” Obama said Monday.

“We tried their ideas. They didn’t work. The economy didn’t grow, not as many jobs, and the deficit went up. But here’s the thing. Governor Romney’s a very talented salesman..."

“This is just delusional,” opined radio giant Rush Limbaugh, reacting to Obama’s suggestion that deficits have gone down in this administration. “This is our president, folks, entirely totally completely delusional. He’s not there. The elevator is not going to the top floor today…This is worthy of men in the white coats…I wonder if he knows what he’s saying. It’s on the prompter …I wonder if he believes what he’s saying.”

Obama himself stressed during his Madison speech that he doesn’t utter anything he doesn’t intend to say.

“You know that I say what I mean and I mean what I say,” the president noted.

“Deficits went down?” Limbaugh continued. “You know, not even his supporters believe this...Which Obama idea has worked? Stimulus? Obamacare? Green energy? Arab Spring? Name one. What Obama idea has worked?..."

“The national debt has had almost $6 trillion added to it. That’s done by way of a deficit every year that is over a trillion dollars. We never had trillion-dollar annual deficits until Obama. One of Bush’s last deficits was a mere $257 billion. This deeply concerns me. I know politicians lie, and I know they want to put a good spin on everything. But this, folks, I’m tongue-tied. This is not just political lying. This isn’t trying to pull wool over people’s face..."

Back when I was a high school sophomore one of the kids asked the teacher why we had to study history. She told him it was so we wouldn’t do the same stupid things again. That was in 1957. They don’t stress history the same way now and haven’t for years. People think they’re blazing new trails but they’re just stumbling over the same old cliffs. People have been trying socialism, discussing socialism and getting screwed by socialism for centuries, there is nothing new they can try with it, it always ends with big holes in the ground full of rotting bodies. When the novelty wears off and people start resisting the tyranny they’ve got to be eliminated.

Good advice, he is obviously smoking the coke again, and is bound to unleash the dogs just for grins when he loses. You know, “punish our enemies”.

Bill Clinton issued an executive order requiring that school text books be revised to reflect a more diverse history of the US. Knowing nothing about post modernist thought or social justice, most of us were rightly outraged.

The Duke Lacrosse case was my first introduction to post modernist thought. Since then, I’ve done a bit of reading and now understand relativism, revisionist history and social justice. But never did I see a clearer illustration of what social justice really means than when I heard Obama declare that voting was the best revenge.

My high school history teacher was Miss Mildred Funk. You didn’t mess around with Mildred LOL. She knew history from the minute Adam and Eve got the boot! There were a lot of old maid teachers then, sort of like secular nuns I suppose. You learned or you suffered!

If this is his closing message, they are losing by a big margin. That is pure delusion only meant to fire up the fringe.

It is pretty much the same message that this administration has been giving for four years. Leftists (progressives, statists) do not live in the same reality that we do. When Clinton had to reign in spending and was forced to insitute welfare reform by a Republican congress, he claimed all the good results were his! No matter what happens, to the leftists, anything bad is a result of capitalism and anything good is a result of their efforts.

The article says that not even Obama’s supporters believe that he cut the deficit.

Unfortunately, I’ve talked to a few of them, and yes, they do believe that he cut the deficit. The 16 trillion debt is, according to them, because the cost for Bush’s wars were delayed and put into the budget from 2009-2012.

Whatever it was he was taking during the first presidential debate (or before it), we're darn lucky he took it seems to have continued to take it.

If he had conducted himself more reasonably and appeared to make more sense throughout the campaign, he would probably have had the upper hand going into tomorrow. As it is, because of the incredible idiocy of too much of the electorate, he still is close enough to possibly pose a threat to Romney, what with the cheating and possible post-election legal maneuvers.

All this from a man who is, in all likelihood, trying to pull off a repeat of the greatest hoax in American history: getting elected to the highest office in the land without being a natural born citizen, and perhaps not even being a citizen at all!

cocainomania

Users who have pleasurable experiences report varying degrees of euphoria; increased energy, excitement, and sociability; less hunger and fatigue; a marked feeling of increased physical and mental strength; and decreased sensation of pain. Some will feel a great sense of power and competence that may be associated with the delusion or false sense of grandeur, known as cocainomania.

I've not had the time to search for it on here, but I've been wondering if a physician on FR has posted his/her opinion of what's going on with Obama?

I started wondering this after the first debate. I've never agreed with him, but until the last several months, he at least looked healthy.

In the first debate and subsequent ones, I kept thinking there's something odd about his complexion and even in his expressions.

My mom says you can tell a lot about what's going on inside someone's body by their face. And, something's just not right.

The idea seems to be to cast the illusion of reducing the most salient criticism of their approach, through mere posturing and rhetorical technique, to what is at most an undecidable question.

imo, the only way Obama can win is by cheating.

I read on Twitter that there was a report of Romney votes turning into Obama votes, but they got caught (THIS time).
