At a time when many Americans can barely afford Burger King and a movie,
Obama boasts of spending a billion dollars on his re-election campaign.
Questioned at a recent appearance about the spiraling fuel costs, Obama
said, "Get used to it" – and with an insouciant grin and chortle, he told
another person at the event, who complained about the effect high fuel
prices were having on his family, to "get a more fuel-efficient car."
The Obamas behave as if they were sharecroppers living in a trailer and hit
the Powerball, but instead of getting new tires for their trailer and a new
pickup truck, they moved to Washington . And instead of making possum pie,
with goats and chickens in the front yard, they're spending and living large
at taxpayer expense – opulent vacations, gala balls, resplendent dinners and
exclusive command performances at the White House, grand date nights, golf,
basketball, more golf, exclusive resorts and still more golf.
Expensive, ill-fitting and ill-chosen wigs and fashions hardly befit the
first lady of the United States . The Obamas have behaved in every way but
presidential – which is why it's so offensive when we hear Obama say, in
order "to restore fiscal responsibility, we all need to share in the
sacrifice – but we don't have to sacrifice the America we believe in."
The American people have been sacrificing; it is he and his family who are
behaving as if they've never had two nickels to rub together – and now,
having hit the mother lode, they're going to spend away their feelings of
inadequacy at the taxpayers' expense.
Obama continues to exhibit behavior that, at best, can be described as
mobocratic and, at worst, reveals a deeply damaged individual. In a February
2010 column, I asked, "Is Obama
unraveling?"<http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=123809>I
wrote that it was beginning to appear the growing mistrust of him and
contempt for his policies was beginning to have a destabilizing effect on
him.
At that time, I wrote that not having things go one's way can be a bitter
pill, but reasonable people don't behave as he was behaving. He had insulted
Republicans at their luncheon, where he had been an invited guest. I had
speculated that was, in part, what had led him to falsely accuse Supreme
Court justices before Congress, the nation and the world, during the 2010
State of the Union address.
It appeared, at that time, as if he were "fraying around the emotional
edges." That behavior has not abated – it has become more pronounced. While
addressing the nation, after being forced to explain the validity of his
unilateral aggression with Libya , America witnessed a petulant individual
scowling and scolding the public for daring to insist he explain his
actions.
But during an afternoon speech to address the budget/debt, he took his
scornful, unstable despotic behavior to depths that should give the nation
cause for concern. Displaying a dark psychopathy more representative of an
episode of "The Tudors" television series, he invited Rep. Paul Ryan,
R-Wis., to sit in the front row during his speech and then proceeded to
berate both Ryan and Ryan's budget-cutting plan. Even liberal Democrats were
put off by the act. MSNBC's Joe Scarborough questioned the sanity of Obama's
actions.
Today, criticism is coming from all sides. *A senior Democrat lawmaker said,
"I have been very disappointed in [Obama], to the point where I'm
embarrassed that I endorsed him. It's so bad that some of us are thinking,
is there some way we can replace him? How do you get rid of this guy?"

Steve McCann wrote: Obama's speech "was chock full of lies, deceit and crass
fear-mongering. It must be said that [he] is the most dishonest, deceitful
and mendacious person in a position of power I have ever witnessed" ("The
Mendacity of Barack Obama," AmericanThinker.com<http://americanthinker.com/>,
April 15, 2011).
McCann continued: "[His] performance was the culmination of four years of
outright lies and narcissism that have been largely ignored by the media,
including some in the conservative press and political class who are loath
to call [him] what he is in the bluntest of terms: a liar and a fraud. That
he relies on his skin color to intimidate, either outright or by insinuation
[against] those who oppose his radical agenda only add to his audacity. It
is apparent that he has gotten away with his character flaws his entire
life, aided and abetted by sycophants around him. …"
With these being among the kinder rebukes being directed at Obama, and with
people becoming less intimidated by his willingness to use race as a
bludgeon, with falling poll numbers in every meaningful category and an
increasingly aggressive tea-party opposition – how much longer before he
cracks completely?
The coming months of political life are not going to be pleasant for Obama.
Possessed by a self-perceived palatine mindset, that in his mind places him
above criticism, how long before he cracks in public? Can America risk a man
with a documented track record of lying and misrepresenting truth as a basic
way of life, who is becoming increasingly more contumelious?
