It’s the Message, Morons

On November 6, 2012, almost 66 million Americans traded the nation’s future for a chance to worship a false god. In a country of over 315 million people, a minority of eligible voters traded prosperity for the illusion of forced fairness.

In reelecting Barack Obama, with fewer votes than in 2008, voters traded harmony for the divisiveness of America’s most polarizing president.

Woody Allen said, “eighty percent of success is just showing up.” How true, because a little more than 20% of America has successfully forced upon the nation 4 more years of Barack the failure.

Yet, in providing Obama with another term, during which he can continue to remake America in his own image, those 66 million voters convinced the president that he is omnipotent and whatever he wishes is not only wise, but inevitable.

Barack Obama is the worst thing to ever happen to this nation, and most Americans support neither him nor his policies. But, his legions of lackeys, in true minion fashion, back him with all their heart, and since they have successfully controlled the message, they have intimidated the majority into believing they are the minority.

Barack Obama, redolent with the stench of false supremacy, is now convinced that he is the greatest man to have ever lived — not too difficult a task, since he had always suspected as much anyway.

In any case, he now searches for battles to win — he doesn’t care what they are or the impact they have on the nation. He simply wants to be seen as invincible, victorious and most of all, transformational.

History used to be written by the winners — as defined by the mainstream media. But, going forward, history will be written by those with a computer, a keyboard, and a care.

Yet, Barack Obama is playing a no-lose game. Even if his policies fail (destiny is a bitch), no one will be able to deny he was transformational. Spike Lee was right — the definitive history of the United States will now be delineated into pre-Barack and post-Barack eras.

Did you hear? In January, Barack Obama forced the Republicans in Congress to accept the Obama middle class tax cuts, while protecting government investment in the programs Americans support.

Political parties by their very nature are about communication and messaging. A party’s political purpose is to seek like-minded individuals who agree with their point of view on the vagaries of the day’s political blessings and transgressions.

The conservative/moderate message is reasonable and in fact, accepted by a plurality of Americans. Yet, Republicans are as horrible at communicating as the Barack-led Democrat/liberal coalition is at governing.

Sure… Obama controls the press as if he has in his possession a picture of each and every editor and columnist in a compromising position with either a live boy or a dead girl. Not that there’s anything wrong with that — the “live boy” part, at least — providing they’re over the age of consent. The “dead girl” part would be wrong, just plain wrong, whatever their age… but I digress.

Whatever it is, no matter what he says, he is never questioned or challenged. And with every interviewer deliberately fluffing Barack — the worst president this nation has ever had seems to only get worse — drifting farther away from reality as he moves further from the truth.

Obama was outraged when Susan Rice was forced to withdraw from consideration as Secretary of State after withering criticism of her role in the Benghazi cover-up. Not at the opposition, mind you — he craves any and all opposition as another opportunity to ridicule and embarrass those who dare to disagree. It was her retreat from the field of battle that irked him.

He was looking forward to the fight and she deprived him of it — which is why he did not offer her the Director of the NSC appointment, a position that doesn’t need Senate approval. She wouldn’t sacrifice for his amusement, which is unacceptable to a king. She is dead to him now. Notice, you haven’t heard much about her lately, except of course when Hillary threw her under the bus during her congressional testimony on the Libyan debacle. But, then again:

“What difference does it make at this point?”

Then he nominated John Kerry as Secretary of State. Kerry is probably not the first anti-American applying for the job, but he certainly is one of the most vociferous. It was a shock to Barack that there was so little opposition.

He had to pick up his game. Therefore, for the Department of Defense, he chose an anti-Israel, anti-American, anti-defense-spending Chuck Hagel.

That provided the dissent Obama craved. Yet, it is already shaping up to be a battle he will win easily. Not that he is opposed to that — it’s just that it would be so much more fun for him if the whole thing could be dragged out, providing ample time to belittle his opponents in front of hand-picked adoring crowds.

Wow, nominating and getting approval for a Jew-hating unilateral disarmer, who is ambivalent on the subject of Iran attaining nuclear weapons, is a victory for sure, but probably one too quickly won, and not embarrassing or demoralizing enough for the opposition — which Obama defines as anyone not kneeling before his brilliance.

Well… off to another golf course, or the next vacation, to plot future divisive forays into destroying all those who don’t recognize him as a deity. There are not enough hours in the day — perhaps he can change that — maybe Valerie can write up an executive order.

And next, we have the nomination of Jacob Lew for Treasury. He has long been considered the most partisan of Obama appointees. His nomination is designed to give Obama another opportunity to destroy all opposition and perhaps afterward, stride down a boulevard somewhere where adoring adorers can throw palm fronds at his feet — just ask Newsweek (it used to be a magazine), he is after all, the “second coming.”

…And, what an inaugural speech — he basically said:

“I’m not going to cut spending. In fact, I’m going to increase spending. Er… I meant investment, on things like climate change, because I…

Did I say “I?” I mean…”we,” we have a responsibility to take collective action to heal the planet — regardless of economic growth and employment, or the price of gasoline, home heating oil and electricity.

…And, I’m going to do it on my own, since the constitution is an outdated document that needs to adapt to me, not the other way around.

…And, if I can’t increase taxes enough to cover my spending, I will just borrow the money. And in 4 years, it will be too late for anyone to do anything about it –America will have been transformed.

…Oh, and by the way, anyone who disagrees with me is evil.”

The Republicans response has been muted. Apparently, during the reign of Obama, the high point of effective dissent through democratic discourse was when Joe Wilson screamed:

“You lie.”

Yet, their recent approval of a bill to suspend the debt ceiling until May, may just be a step in the right direction. As a conservative, I want to have the conversation with Barack on spending as many times a year as is possible. Having him go to the press and the people regularly to ask for more money is something I want to see.

And… I am all for the sequester, which was designed by Barack during the last debt ceiling debate, way back in 2011, as a poison pill, to cut defense and discretionary spending by equal amounts over a 10 year period. He wanted cuts that would make everyone miserable, thinking he would benefit politically through their cancellation, and he liked the alliteration; he is after all, a master orator.

“We need to seriously discuss a suspension of the sequester.”

Yet this is the age of Barack, the age of misery — embrace the suck — Defense will survive. And, let’s face it, Hagel is going to decimate the nation’s defense anyway — that’s why Barack picked him — why not get some actual spending cuts in the process on the discretionary side?

Look… it’s the message, morons — at some point, the opposition has to stop being cowed by Barack and his minions and stand up and tell the president:

“You lie.”

It doesn’t matter what the press says, controlling the narrative is about aggression. See Chris Christie — he is immensely popular, despite being the one Republican most responsible for 4 more years of Barack, with his unabashedly effeminate prancing arm in arm with Obama during Sandy.

Or… look at Barack; he doesn’t seem to care what anyone thinks.

Barack Obama must be opposed, vocally and vociferously on all fronts — confronted and ridiculed, just as he does to his opposition, just as Christie does.

It doesn’t matter what the media says — they have smeared their lipstick in service of Barack for a long time and will continue to do so — we will never win with them.

When we dare to stop caring how successful we look to people, caring people will dare to look at us as successful.

Until then, it’s the message, morons — and we have allowed Barack Obama to control the message for way too long.
