On Dennis Millers radio show on Thursday, Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer reacted to what Miller called the new normal lowered expectations for the American economy calling President Barack Obama a fraud and comparing him to a Wizard of Oz.
It is amazing, and there are two parts to that, Krauthammer said. The first is, You didnt build it. This is the ideology of, you know, I built the roads, I gave you your grade school. And thus, if you invent the iPad, I did it, you didnt which is just preposterous. And the other part of this is that liberals measure success in their sort of compassion ratings by the number of people on food stamps, welfare. The larger the number, the more compassionate you are, whereas a conservative says the smaller the number, the more successful the society. This is kind of elementary, nine-year old stuff its not complicated.
This is the ideology that this wizard, and he is he has sort of an hypnotic effect on at least the left in the country has spun over the last four-and-a-half years, Krauthammer said. He came in as this sort of messianic guy who was going to reform everything. And his acolytes are so deeply invested in this theology of Obama that they cant let it go even though, every day, the empirical evidence is that this guy is a fraud; hes a Wizard of Oz; what he preaches doesnt work, and it has very little effect. There may be a turn, I think: By the end of his second term, he will be debunked. But its taken a hell of a long time.

Duh
Charles who? I’d post a picture of Fredo and Michael in Cuba, but we are all tired of the talking heads....
That would be the first BLACK WIZARD, isn’t that wonderful.
Krauthammer played his role in helping get The One elected.
Holy crap, that is freaky.
Talk is cheap.. Many of us on Free Republican saw through
the O hole right off the bat while all the TV talking heads were talking about how smart he was and what a wonderful speaker he was.
Obama is a commie SOB
I’m convinced that she’s a Romulan. She certainly looks like one.
Woke up just in time for the out break of WW III and the annihilation of DC. Good job guys !
Well done!!!!
FReepers were never fooled.
Heh heh heh... no such luck yet!
LA Times writer and TV Skeptic Ed Stockly wrote, "It's remarkable how well this fake documentary mimics actual programs claiming to reveal actual creatures. Substitute Mermaids for Bigfoot, Chupacabra, the Loch Ness monster, ghosts and aliens, and it's hard to make a distinction between what's real but faked, and what's really fake.
When the scientists in the docufiction were fictional characters played by actors and the videos were embellished with CGI effects, you know this was high camp foolery.
When I pointed out to my coworker the facts about this docufiction, he refused to listen. He saw what he saw and there was nothing that would convince him that mermaids were not real. He wanted to live in the fantasy world of the Unicorn Farm. That fantasy world exists in his faith in Zer0. How do we break these Zer0bots of their hypnosis for Zer0? They have to be convinced that there is no place better than the world of reality. Irrational thinking limits them in their full potential as functional people.
Fantasy becomes delusion when it can’t square with reality. One has to be denied. Like gun grabbers eventually will have to grasp the reality that millions of us “bitter clingers” don’t give a damn about their delusions. Sometimes reality really bytes.
If the world survives until then
