I just wanted to say a few things about this.

By now everyone has read and watched the video of this so I know there's no reason to whip that horse again. But the Obama apologists want to claim that Obama was taken out of context. There's only one thing to say to these people:

If Obama's purpose was to simply state that we all pay for things like roads and utilities and police and all that... then what exactly was his point in pointing out the obvious? What's the point? That would be a very obvious thing to say. What is he? Captain Obvious? It's like pointing out that we are all made up of millions of cells. Yes. That's true. So, what would be the point of pointing out a simple fact? There is a point, right?

You don't simply point out a obvious thing for no reason.

The fact is Obama was making a point. He was saying that society is a collective. Everything is collectively achieved. He was making the collectivist argument that there is no such thing as the self-made person, no such thing as individualism, no such thing as standing on your own two feet.

He was giving the worst lowest most base elements of society the collectivist rationalization for despising and robbing their betters, the people that achieve great things through hard work and perseverance. Obama is appealing to the worst elements, the real dregs of society. The people that really hate. The scum of the earth.

Because he is.

I have always made this point. Marxism, collectivism, islam are preambles to the loot. They rationalize, mystify... the loot.

It so happens that Marxism improves the lot of Marx. Marx would have spelled it all out even if it worsened his lot.

Marx, a failed journalist who never made anything work, he turned history into exact science. "Communism is the riddle of history solved, and it knows to be the solution." The solution is wrong, but that doesn't matter.

Did Obama ever work? Ever fixed anything? Ever hit a nail in the wall with a hammer? NEVER. How much like Marx and MooHamMad! These cretins cover themselves with an aura of nobility to justify why they don't have to touch "that crap".

My take on it? Obama in 2008 was pimped up by a vast cabal. That's why he looked so good, so charming speeches, everything in place, nothing out of place. Perfect. Now part of that cabal has abandoned him because they too are not liking our Muslim Brother and Marxist in chief. They too had other expectations from this snake oil salesman. And this is how Obama looks on his own. The worst advice that one could give to Obama for his reelection? "Be yourself!"

You didn't build that. Who did? The community did! Hail to the Glorious Leader who led us unwashed idiots into building that!

How would he ever decide which of his selves to be? Robespierre, also a lawyer and neat as a pin, was swallowed up by the Reign of Terror he helped create. Poetic justice, or just desserts? Both?

None of the above. Poetic justice is sweet and I take it, but generally it comes after so much damage that it is no solace. That's where we are at. Patience. We'll survive Obama too.


Was talking today with a comrade from People's Republic of Ukraine. He said, no matter how much asshole Obama is, sooner or later he will cease being president, at worst after 8 years. I am afraid that Putin will be president until he dies.


Again, no big solace, but something anyway.

A whole new level of "Fair and Balanced"


Yes, Bill said it tonight. At last, Obama's politics have a name. Social Injustice Anti-Capitalist.

I wonder if it's gonna catch on?

Note added- Overnight it occurred to me that somebody had already coined the term for it. It's communism. It's Socialism. It's fascism. But it's MORE. It's OBAMUNISM.

I am a Mathematician. With an Italian friend we set to work savagely, being cruel to ourselves for months on end. We wanted to prove something. At the end of it all, broke, we ended up proving the contrary of what we wanted to prove. What a disappointment. How broke. That result gave me the PhD, and to my friend many, many conferences to be invited to.

At the worst of our morale when we had proved the inconvenient contrary thing, I said to my friend, if we proved whatever we want, we wouldn't be researchers, we would be lawyers. Well, guess what Obama is.

My friend jokingly answered that he is gonna frame my words :-)

Thanks for shining a light.

And from what I understand, they tend to frown at falsifying all your documents and history in a dissertation. Not so much if you're the prez.

That's good stuff, John Frum. Shakesperian. If we proved whatever we want, we wouldn't be men... We would be lawyers.

This is now all over the i-webs.

"George, the fact that Romney had to directly quote what I said in order to highlight what I believe indicates to me that he's stretching a little bit right now. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to directly quote exactly what I said."

Lego blocks are the tool of the oppressor. Comrade Barack is right to send this running dog to the fields for proper indoctrination into the People's philosopy.
