Let Us Not Ruin Our Holiday Cheer But...

This will be the best Christmas in a long time. We will celebrate CHRISTMAS this year and say thanks for the relief of pressure from around our necks. We will breathe a little deeper this holiday season.

So we may not be inclined to interrupt our Gemutlichkeit to examine every facet of an ugly event. Some of us though, just won't be able to help ourselves.

I am referring to the US's Security Council abstention. That is so, so, so characteristically Obama.

Action through inaction.

Working behind the scenes on an ulterior motive.

Deception.

Opaqueness.

More facets than we can list here. Yet, one of these viewpoints outshines all others. That would the priss factor. It is the seeking of vengeance on a matter that should not be personal. As we have seen, everything is personal with Obama. This is Zsa Zsa slapping a cop named Netanyahu. The cop walks away unhurt but duly insulted and humiliated by a privileged diva. The priss factor.

Let us revisit our holiday cheer. Not even our Diva-in-chief can ruin this Christmas.

As Tiny Tim says, "A Merry Christmas to us all; God bless us, every one!"

Summarizing A Sunset On An Overcast Day

Barack Obama is a sad excuse. The saddest thing is not his warmongering. His worst crime is not padding the pockets of Silicon Valley billionaires, nor is his peddling of madman George Soros’ poison. Dismantling America’s Constitution, creating a morally deprived playground out of his country, clowning when others suffer, even getting valiant American soldiers killed is not cause to disrespect a US president. No, the reason my sweet and smart wife is wrong about respecting the president is not because of mistakes. Barack Obama is an unrepentant failure in leading his people. This is why he should be shunned, why he should leave the White House with his tail tucked between his legs. Instead the New York Times, CNN, the major networks, the sellout news, the Jeff Bezos types who bought up media, and the crazy liberals must prop him up. The empowered must have their champion intact.
 
No. Barack Obama betrayed America in no uncertain terms. He could have stood up, he decided to go along. He could have paved the steady way, but he caved in to the empowered self indulgers. He could have made peace and prosperity for all, instead he shunned billions of people in favor of a few. Barack Obama could have made us all proud to be Americans, instead he showed the world our vilest characteristics, our worst sportsmanship and fair play, and how “we” are worth more than “them”. A good man does not respect such things, he despises them. I lost respect for Barack Obama not for his mistakes, but for the vast possibility he left in the dirt.

How Apropos: Obama Concludes His Term By Voting "Present" At the UN

The United Nations Security Council has passed a previously postponed vote to end Israeli settlements after the U.S. abstained from voting. 

U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Samantha Power gave a statement after the vote saying that the U.S. chose not to vote on the resolution "because the resolution is too narrowly focused on settlements." She began her statement in the Security Council with the words of Ronald Reagan in 1985 that settlements are “in no way necessary for the security of Israel” and “only diminishes the confidence of Arabs.”

As to the U.N., things will be different after Jan. 20th.
