OBAMA'S POLITICAL NONSENSE
By Doug Giebel
EXCERPT:
How long will apologists for President Barack Obama continue to excuse his administration's flops and failings?
How long, too, must concerned Obama supporters ask, "Whatever happened to the guy who campaigned as a fired-up crusader for truth, light and justice?" For it is painfully obvious that Barack Obama abandoned his campaign-winning persona once he prevailed in the election.
...For all the times it came, that clarion call for "change," it is now beyond doubt that Barack Obama has been unable to overcome his own demons and challenge the "way things are" in Washington. "Change" is a word that's easy to say, but it's much harder to accomplish. To cite John Donne, "no man is an island," and Barack Obama seems to have forgotten how many true believers across this country and across the globe were rooting for his success -- and would stand with him again, if he had the courage to call them into action. Or, would stand with him again if they had not been burned once by a group whose ambition truly seems to be "the last infirmity of noble minds."
It is not cynicism to wonder if Barack Obama ever really believed his own most eloquent words.
