Obama’s Lear-Like Rage

Peter Wehner
"In a Rose Garden statement in the aftermath of his failure to persuade the Senate to move on any of his gun control proposals, the president raged, Lear-like, against his opponents. It was a rather unpleasant mix–one part petulance and two parts anger. 
What Mr. Obama has been attempting to do throughout this gun control debate is to build his case based on a false premise, which is that the laws he’s proposing would have stopped the mass killing in Newtown. The families of the Newtown massacre are being used by the president in an effort to frame the issue this way: If you’re with Obama, you’re on the side of saving innocent children from mass killings–and if you’re against Obama, you have the blood of the children of Newtown on your hands.   
Obama’s effort at emotional blackmail has failed, and in bitterly lashing out at those who called him out on his demagoguery, he went some distance toward confirming that he is, in fact, a demagogue. 
Three months into his second term, Barack  Obama is becoming an increasingly bitter and powerless figure. When a man who views himself as a world-historic figure and our Moral Superior commands things to happen and they don’t, it isn’t a pretty sight. 
See Wednesdays Rose Garden statement for more."

  1. When you have little character and even less demonstrable intellect, you operate on a visceral and emotional level to elevate your supposed concern for the issues before you.

    Someday Obama's facade will fall when serious academics analyze his performance and compare it to his supposed high flying cognitive abilities.

    When Obama's academic records are revealed, he will be shown to be the Shallow Hal that he has demonstrated to date, but which the MSM has covered up with every one of his blunders and they are many.

    Never compromise with someone who seeks to deprive you of your individual liberty and freedom. The Republican House needs to remember this principle.

  2. I agree with your comments Mr. Janicki. The problem is not the low level intellectual content of the President statements, it is the low level intellectual comprehension of about 51% of the voting public. The President's appeal is not all that different from that of Hitler and other demagogues who wooed their public with outlandish lies that they all wanted to hear. Obama who styled himself the new Abraham Lincoln four years ago has changed Lincoln's famous statement, you can fool all of the people all of the time, at least a majority of the people.
