After six years of hearing the weak logic of not doing this or being forced to issue executive orders with a one-star explanation....it might be refreshing to have someone with business savvy to say he’ll do something for reasons A, B, and C...then define them in sixty seconds.
I remember some reporter back around 2011 asking the President a simple question that should have required a sixty-second response. Around eleven minutes later....he was still giving some marginal response that didn’t make any sense. It was like he didn’t know why he did something but remembered some fake reason why he was told to do this.
In plain language....people are waiting for this non-political guy to arrive and just get down to business. President Obama was built and designed like some soap opera, with twists and turns layered into the story-arch and you just never knew the whole story to whatever he had planned or dreamed up.
President Obama represents a new generation of lying Presidents. Bill Clinton lied, but he lied with “feeling,” wanting the American people to believe his lies, sort of believing them himself. He cared enough about us believing him that he even showed up for that Paula Jones / Lewinsky deposition or grand jury testimony.
But Barack Obama intends to lie and doesn’t even care that what he says is a lie. He doesn’t put any energy into getting people to believe him. He feels haughtily justified in the least believable stuff he says. He could give a poop about what the American people believe. He will never let himself be called on anything that he does or says, and no one with any pulpit does (outside of some internet and talk radio sites immediately dismissed as racist).
The outrage we felt at each new lie got old in 2007. We cannot sustain national outrage while the media continues to hold him up as a normal President.
But we all, on the medium left to the far right, ARE UTTERLY REFRESHED HEARING THE TRUTH AGAIN. It happens to be Donald Trump daring to speak it.
