The Obama Legacy

Obama is the most polarizing figure in the history of America. No close seconds. His impulse to play the race card when faced with legitimate criticism is nauseating and unconscionable. But he has no conscience and he is, in his eyes, a victim.

But let's put the phony-ass race/victim card aside for a minute. One of the reasons Obama is such a terrible politician is because he has never been in a position of leadership before he became president. He never even had to run a campaign at the state level or when he was anointed US Senator. The Chicago Machine covered for him then. The national media has had his back ever since.

Thus, Obama has never learned the rudiments of politics. He does not build bridges or coalitions or working relationships. He has nothing but contempt for disagreement, nothing but hostility for opposition. Since 2008, the blank slate Obama has lost support in EVERY DEMOGRAPHIC! It's the constant sneer, smirk and middle finger that has eroded his synthetically-manufactured popularity. When people actually got to know the man, they learned that he is an ill-mannered brute. A bully. A slob.

But let's put the hokey claims to race victimization and an abrasive personality aside for a minute. Obama is perhaps the least honest politician America has ever seen. Yes, politicians are known for their factual flexibility. And yes, it is hard to rank dishonest people in a hierarchy. Is someone who lies 100 % of the time more dishonest than the 50 % liar? Do we hold the fisherman's tales in the same light as the president's? How do a series of venial lies measure up to a few strategic lies? It is sad that we have to consider such matters.

But however one calculates dishonor, Barack Hussein Obama is at the top of the list. His most recent series of falsehoods (falsehoods that span years) revolves around the Affordable Care Act. "It's not a tax. It's not a tax. It's not a tax. " Ultimately, Chief Justice Roberts reminded us of the obvious: It's a boatload of new taxes.

Are the Democrats really so tone deaf that they cannot understand our anger? Do they really expect us to now "work together" or "cooperate" or my favorite, "move on" ??? Obama is The Great Divider. His policies are dangerous but more importantly, his character is toxic. Can you really not understand why a 2700 page bill written in secret by ghost writers and passed by members of Congress who did not read the bill, might offend a nation? Can you really not understand why the extreme and prolonged series of lies concerning taxes and mandates and promises of no new taxes and is finally unveiled as nothing, nothing, nothing but more taxes, might offend us and give us pause to"move forward"???

Obama will be remembered as many things: Wannabe Victim. The Anti-leader. The Narcissist. The Slob. The King of Smirk. The First Adolescent President. The Chronic Liar. The Habitual Liar. The Creative Liar.

Yes, Obama will wear these labels proudly. And who knows what other labels history will heap upon this man? But for now, Obama wears the one crown he has actually earned on his own merits: Barack Obama is the Great Divider!
