Theater of the Absurd

Opinion

Opinion by George McClellan:

Obama is the most recalcitrant president American has ever had. Presidents Ford, Reagan, the two Bush’s and even Clinton managed to work with Congress regardless of which party held the reins. Obama had two full years with a Democrat House and Senate when he could have passed his anti-American measures and gotten away with it, like gun confiscation for example. But, he did’t take advantage of the gift presented to him. Once we realized how dangerous he was, we at least replaced the Democrat House with a Republican one. Voters couldn’t simply dismiss America’s first black President, on charges of racism but, that did mark the end of the Yellow Dog Democrats, ending any cooperation between the GOP and the democrat party.

Obama has made no effort since then to work with the Republican House. The following election found even the Senate had fallen into Republican hands. Obama chose to ignore both houses of Congress unless they supported his issues whether they liked them or not. That was John Boehner’s weakness giving the conservative base the appearance he was not even willing to contest Obama’s policies. They played golf together instead.

Boehner’s, in his heart of hearts, is not a conservative and further, did not realize that with Obama, he was dealing not with an American President but with a creature who doesn’t even know or understand America or Americans. Not only would Obama not even compromise, he wouldn’t even communicate. Problem was, Boehner wouldn’t either. Obama’s not stupid. He realized Boehner had little public support and, because Boehner wouldn’t communicate he couldn’t make the House’s case to the base and claim their support. Well, Boehner is gone and so hopefully, is his boot licker Kevin McCarthy. For the GOP, a new era is upon us.

Obama, on the other hand, demonstrates an incompetency in leadership, except his goal to destroy America. Instead, he calls the conservative base bad names and the conservative base, tightened up their jaws closed their pocket books to the GOP and started the campaign that has led us to where we are now. That’s not bad.!  A good enema is definitely the cure the GOP needs now. Both parties are now in disarray leaving our government adrift in a sea of sharks.

Obama’s foreign policy is in tatters. He hired the former First Lady as his Secretary of State and her four year term produced no positive achievements, absolutely none, except perhaps, her contribution to global warming by her carbon emissions footprint left in the wake of her travels.

The reputation of our witless Secretary of State, John Kerry, a Vietnam vet and once favored associate of our beloved Jane Fonda, could only be salvaged if the numbskulls in Oslo, decide to award him the same trinket they awarded Jimmy Carter, Al Gore and, gasp, Barak Hussein Obama. It would be a final demonstration that illuminates his incompetence. The fool will stand grinning before the world, prize in hand, not knowing the truth and will strut around secure in the knowledge that at least he was justly in line ahead of Bill Clinton. How’s that for absurdity?

Lastly, as a metaphor for absurdity, Pope Francis, during his recent US visit, canonized the Franciscan missionary, Fr. Junipero Serra, despite leftists claims that Fr. Serra converted Indians by force. Serra was a piker compared to what the Spaniards did to the Mayans, Aztec and Incas. The Pope, canonizing Fr. Serra, falls into the same category as the Nobel Committee canonizing leftists politicians with its “Nobel Peace Prize”. It doesn’t matter anymore because we all know it’s propaganda to support the already failed social policies of Progressives. It’s all politics and appeals only to the faithful as a just reward for at least trying.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, Go get “em! (5 Oct. 2015).
