The Smell Of Desperation

“If you don’t have any fresh ideas, then you use stale tactics to scare the voters.
If you don’t have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from.”
(Barack Obama, DNC Convention, 2008)

As summer draws near and temperatures begin to soar,  the stench of desperate Democrats  begins to waft across America’s political landscape.  Three and a half years into this most unfortunate presidential term, the average American has come to the realization the hope and change promised by a rank unknown in 2008 smacks too much of the socialism that more astute eyes and ears caught from the beginning of his meteoric takeover of the election spotlight.  Put simply, President Lame Duck’s snarky presumption of great intelligence and endless finger-pointing campaigning have now begun to bear fruit and the taste is far from sweet.

Instead of realizing that leadership is something requiring more effort than bowing to foreign rulers in the Middle East and sucking up to Islamic extremists, playing golf, appearing on late-night television shows and Hollywood fundraisers or checking off names on a kill list, The Abonimable One has doubled-down and alternately continues to blame his predecessor for the results of his failed policies while attempting to rule by executive fiat.

Obligingly, his poll numbers drop correspondingly.

This doesn’t bode well for someone who wants to rule the world…errrr…serve another term in office so word on the street is that the Chicago machine is frantically sharpening its claws in preparation for what they hope will be an early takedown of the presumptive Republican nominee, Mitt Romney.

The following quote was given to John Heilemann by an Obama campaign advisor on how they plan to win over racists.  You know, those “bitter clingers”, “teabaggers” and others who believe the Constitution is not equal to Charmin, live responsibly and expect others to do the same.

“[Romney is] not likable. He’s not trustworthy. He’s not on your side. You live in Pittsburgh and you’ve got dirt under your fingernails, who do you want to have a beer with? It ain’t f***ing Mitt Romney. You’re like, ‘S**t, I’d rather have a beer with the black guy than him!’”

Yes, indeed.  They intend on putting the finest of their crude, inner-city Chicago on full display; the same kind of low-class divisive act that cost the Democrat-backed unions Wisconsin and California earlier this month. 

Americans aren’t as stupid as Herr Barry thinks.

Different But Equally Racist?

The White House has actually warned folks to “be careful” as President Obama’s choice to replace Supreme Court Justice Souter, Sonia Sotomayor, begins the confirmation process.  It seems that because Sotomayor is a Hispanic woman, that is such a big deal in and of itself it should trump any all legitimate questions and their answers – such as looking closely at her on the job performance – when deciding if she is really and truly qualified to sit on the Supreme Court.

Frankly, boys and girls, I watch this nonsense and shake my head.  Anyone who uses things like race or economic circumstances in an attempt to elevate themselves above others is, at best, a fool.  To claim that your race or gender makes you somehow wiser than those who are different from you is a racist statement.  Kudos to ANYONE who works hard and makes something productive out of themselves.  We all know that a piece of paper from a prestigious university has no bearing on common sense or eventual life outcome; if you want to talk about real wisdom I will bet you can find more in a ditch digger than in some alleged “Constitutional law professors”. 

But I digress. 

Affirmative action and equal opportunity are a direct result of freedoms provided in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.  It is on a level playing field that every nominee must be judged; without prejudice, without discrimination, blindly – and those who are found to be lacking in objective judicial abilities must be sent packing.

Judge Sotomayor does not appear to be an appropriate choice for the Supreme Court simply because she is on record as advocating legislating from the bench, and because of her racist statements.  Both are bad news when being considered for a job that calls for upholding the Constitution and doing so without prejudice, meaning doing so blindly.  It makes no difference that she is Hispanic.  It makes no difference that she is female.  Lady Justice doesn’t discriminate, Lady Justice is not divisive, and upholding that literal objectivity is simply a fundamental test that Sonia Sotomayor does not pass.
