Our Pathetic, War-Mongering White House

Our Pathetic, War-Mongering White House

The Obama White House may go down as the most corrupt administration since another Democrat, Lyndon Baines Johnson, sat in the Oval Office, setting all-time records for grasping, manipulative, overreaching conduct, actions which are matched by its tackiness.

Regarding the tacky, and disregarding Rep. Anthony Tweeterman Weiner in that category, the president exhibited his roots this week by raffling himself off for five bucks a chance. More specifically, by participating in a presidential sweepstakes, four lucky winners could win a dinner with the Chief Executive of the United States of America, time and locale to be determined.

Obama made the unique, limited time, offer in a campaign email to his millions of minions in which he appealed for financial assistance toward his re-election saying, in part, “We rely on everyday Americans giving whatever they can afford–and I want to spend time with a few of you. So if you make a donation today, you’ll be automatically entered for a chance to be one of the four supporters to sit down with me for dinner. Please donate $5 or more today.”

Winners will also receive free air fare and accommodations for the “casual meal among friends” and they aren’t even required to contribute, although that detail was hidden where all scammers hide their scam, in the fine print. (http://bit.ly/lFs5Mi)

The heart quickens at the prospect, the stomach churns at the vulgar tastelessness, not of the meal necessarily but of the lack of dignity and class.

Were lack of taste and class the only Obamian flaws, they could be overlooked, if not forgiven. Lord knows Americans are well acquainted with this crew’s crudeness by now.

We could even overlook the report on Politico.com that Google.com has granted “special access” to Obama’s re-election campaign, denied to Republicans, which would provide information on Googlers for the edification of Obama’s campaigners. Google claimed to Politico that it was simply an experimental program and definitely not a “special deal” accorded to Obama. (http://politi.co/iD7HK6)

Heaven forbid that Google would favor the Obamians! It’s surely just an experiment, that will be concluded on or about November 6, 2012.

However, again, as with a tacky presidential lottery, Americans can overlook Google’s anti-GOP bias since we’re so used to it. What we can’t and should never become accustomed to is this president’s usurpation of power. . .
