Obama:The Lamest Duck
PJ Media ^ | 28 Feb 2016 | Victor Davis Hanson

Posted on 02/29/2016 11:12:02 AM PST by Rummyfan

President Obama is boxed in a state of paralysis—more so than typical lame-duck presidents.

His hard-left politics have insidiously eroded the Democratic Party, which has lost both houses of Congress and the vast majority of the state legislatures, state elected offices, and governorships. Obama has redefined the black vote, as a necessary, no-margin-of-error 95% bloc majority to offset his similar creation of an increasingly monolithic 65% bloc white vote. We are no longer individual voters, but, in Chicago-politics style, merely faceless “Latinos,” “Asians,” “African-Americans,” “gays,” “women,” and now “whites.”

Obama issues a new initiative—and the nation snoozes. He wastes the day on the golf links—and the nation snoozes. He smear his critics, invites a rapper to the White House whose latest album cover has a dead white judge lying in front of the White House—and the nation snoozes. He cozies up to America’s enemies and snubs our friends—and the nation snoozes. For the nth time, he blusters about closing down Guantanamo—and the nation snoozes. He opens the border even wider to welcome in more illegal aliens and future constituents—and the nation snoozes. Lame duckestry means not even being able to wake up your opponents.

We’ll see how lame he is when he actually closes Gitmo and through hook, crook and intimidation gets his pick confirmed for SCOTUS.

Don’t EVER take your foot off the gas when opposing this guy.

I agree. Baraq has made the term “lame duck” obsolete via executive orders.

0bama still has blackmail material on Roberts and McConnell. and Paul Ryno is always eager to please Bathhouse Barry, so don't count him out yet.

Americans are not snoozing as Obama breaks the law. Americans are fuming at the lack of action by the opposing party tasked with stopping the guy.
So when a candidate for president promises action for a change, the people ally around him.
