Misery Index Doesn't Apply to Barack Obama
It’s fully expected when Rep. Michelle Bachmann criticizes President Barack Hussein Obama but much less anticipated when representatives of two of his prime constituencies, blacks and hispanics, rip into their hero.
Bachmann cited Obama’s miserable record on economic growth and job creation and its impact on blacks and hispanics–16% black unemployment, 12% hispanic, and 40% and 26% among black and hispanic youths, respectively–as bases for concluding, “This president has failed the Hispanic community. He has failed the African-American community. He has failed us all when it comes to jobs.” (http://bit.ly/iua4Qg)
She could easily have listed any number of additional failures on his resume but focused on jobs in her Friday speech to the Republican Leadership Conference.
Instead of demonstrating leadership and vision on employment and the myriad other crises facing the nation, the Obama administration prefers to entertain Americans with an odd brand of humor. This oddity was seen in the president cracking jokes last week about the failure of his trillion-dollar stimulus boondoggle to stimulate shovels and Press Secretary Jay Carney’s riotous yuk on Monday about paying off our multi-trillion budget deficit with the $2 he won from his new golfing buddy, Speaker John Boehner.
Unfortunately, lame jokes don’t go very far for the country or the president, especially when members of his fan club aren’t amused.
Little seems to amuse the Rev. Louis Farrakhan who expressed his displeasure with his “brother” Obama’s treatment of his friend, Libyan dictator, Moammar Qaddafi in March. Calypso Louie then totally dissed his bro, the President of the United States, with the rhetorical question, “Who the hell do you think you are?”
Farrakhan is newly incensed over Obama’s kinetic action in Libya as seen in a May video now all the rage on YouTube: ”We voted for our brother Barack, a beautiful human being with a sweet heart, and now he’s an assassin. They turned him into them.” The antecedent of “them” is unclear although the founder of the black racist Nation of Islam was vividly clear in his denunciation of the “murderer in the White House,” again because of Obama’s actions against Moammar whom Louie considers a decent man.

Obama, "Who the Hell Do You Think You Are?"
Obama, "Who the Hell Do You Think You Are?"
For some while now–about two years or so–I’ve been thinking that things can’t really be as bad as my perceptions tell me, that the United States isn’t respected internationally, that the economy and unemployment rate aren’t improving, that our commander in chief was so far in under his head that he can’t tell which side is up, that he is a committed ideologue whose commitments supersede by far the interests of America, that he is a loser par excellence.
My suspicions are rapidly being confirmed and Rasmussen.com confirms the American people are on to Barack Hussein Obama, the pseudo-American apotheosis, as well.
If they still hold firm to the belief that he is deserving of even minimal respect, witness the disrepectful reflections of an unacknowledged buddy and intimate of his former pastor, Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright and Moammar “Daffy” Gadhafy, Rev. Louis “Calypso Louis” Farrakhan: http://bit.ly/hKWHwt.
For those not curious enough to click on that story and video, Nation of Islam leader Farrakhan addresses his brother Obama and says, among other things, ”I warn my brother do you [sic] let these wicked demons move you in a direction that will absolutely ruin your future with your people in Africa and throughout the world. . . Why don’t you organize a group of respected Americans and ask for a meeting with Qaddafi, you can’t order him to step down and get out.”
Calypso Louie then totally disses his bro, the President of the United States, with the rhetorical question, “Who the hell do you think you are?”
Disapprobation by one’s bros may be acceptable to fellow bros. Statistics may not be.
The highly-respected pollster Rasmussen.com has tracked Obama’s approval ratings literally from Day One, January 21, 2009 when his approval index was 28 with a whopping 44% of Americans strongly approving the president and 65% in the total approving column and a mere 16% strongly disapproving, 30% total disapproval.
Contrast those numbers with March 19, 2011 . . .

Post-Racial America?
Post Racial America?
America was told– by some people– that the election of the first bi-racial president, Barack Hussein Obama, signalled a new era in America and in American politics, a brave new post-racialism era. Those people may have been wrong.
Indeed, instead of being a unifying force of race-neutralism, President Obama has been the most divisive figure in American history on race and on virtually everything else.
The signs were there long before Obama beat Hillary Clinton et al. in the Democrat primaries and won that party’s nomination for the presidency in September, 2008.
Current Court Jester, aka Vice President Joe Biden during his vainglorious run for the Democrat top spot let slip a now-famous description of Obama during that campaign when he said of the junior senator from Illinois that his opponent was the “first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.”
Time.com added that “the implication was that the black people who are regularly seen by whites–or at least those who aspire to the highest office in the land–are none of these things,” i.e., neither articulate, bright, clean, or “nice-looking:” http://tiny.cc/qtzca
Nevertheless, inexplicably, Obama added Biden to the ticket . . .
