Before the election of Barry “Almighty”, the
American people had never before chosen a man so ill equipped to hold the
office to which he had been elected. But
not only that, they had also apparently never before elected someone who
possessed such a high opinion of himself, to the point where he views himself
as being nearly God-like. You see, Barry
has come to view no other person as suited as he to be the leader of this once
great nation. And he has now made it
quite clear that even the election of his successor will not prevent him from doing,
or saying, whatever he feels is necessary when it comes to what his successor
may have planned.
And Barry could not have made his position any
clearer than he did in his final weekly address of 2016 as he made it clearer
than ever that he won't retire quietly once Donald Trump is sworn in as
president. Couching his address to the
nation as assurance that he will remain committed to defending the
"progress" achieved by his administration, Barry made it crystal
clear that he intends to be a thorn in President Trump's side after the
official handover of power on January. 20.
And his rationale for doing so has very little, if anything, to with
what’s actually best for the country that he was elected to lead for the last
eight years.
As has so often been the case over the course of
those last eight years, it’s always, and I do mean always, about him. Offering the clearest indication yet of his
plan to be active on the political scene after he is ostensibly back in private
life, Barry said Saturday, "As I prepare to take on the even more
important role of citizen, know that I will be there with you every step of the
way to ensure that this country forever strives to live up to the incredible
promise of our founding — that all of us are created equal, and all of us
deserve every chance to live out our dreams." He speaks of the promise of our founding and
yet has worked tirelessly to undermine it.
The words were an implicit rebuke of the inequality
and retrograde policies that Democrats claim will be on the agenda of Trump and
the Republicans when they take over what will be a unified Republican
government next month. Back when Barry
expected, and most polls indicated, that Hitlery was going to win the White
House, Barry had gone so far as to suggest that he was actually looking forward
to a quiet retirement. But now that the
election didn’t exactly go as planned, Barry says his plans have changed
considerably. The unmistakable suggestion is that Barry claims he needs to stay
active to guard the nation against Trump's predations.
Many of Barry's main ‘accomplishments’ and
priorities, such as Obamacare and a green agenda hailed by environmental
activists, are on Trump's list for demolition. Barry and the Democrats see the
clear prospect that his legacy will be reduced sharply by the incoming
government. And Barry's Saturday speech
shows that he does not intend to simply stand by and let that happen. Touting what he claims as gains made in
expanding health insurance coverage, job creation, bringing troops back to the
U.S. from Afghanistan and Iraq, and killing Osama bin Laden, Barry said that
the country has "made extraordinary progress as a country these past eight
years."
Barry’s Saturday address was little more than a
dogged defense of all that HE has done for or to America since HE was first
sworn into office on the fateful day back in January, 2009. He said income is rising, poverty is falling
and claimed the auto industry is "resurgent." And in turning to diplomacy, Barry said,
"We shut down Iran's nuclear weapons program, opened up a new chapter with
the people of Cuba, and brought nearly 200 nations together around a climate
agreement that could save this planet for our kids." And, of course, he also gave a nod to the
2015 Supreme Court ruling to grant nationwide marriage equality.
And in this his final address of 2016 Barry said, "We've
made extraordinary progress as a country these past eight years." He went on to say, "And here's the
thing: none of it was inevitable. It was the result of tough choices we made,
and the result of your hard work and resilience." Looking ahead, Barry said the task of moving
forward on progress falls to people working together. Barry thanked Americans for their support and
said "almost every country on Earth sees America as stronger and more
respected today than they did eight years ago." But such a statement bears a much closer
resemblance to wishful thinking than it does to any actual facts.
It’s in looking back at what Barry describes as
being extraordinary progress what we see is the lowest labor participation
since the 1970s, nearly 95 million Americans out of the labor force, the worst
economic recovery since the 1940s, the lowest home ownership rate in 50 years,
nearly 13 million more Americans on food stamps, over 43 million Americans
living in poverty, a median household income lower now than in the 1970s, 1 in
5 families without someone in the workforce, 1 in 6 men ages 18-24 are either incarcerated
or out of the workforce and more debt than all other president combined. This is what Barry sees as “extraordinary
progress?”
Besides his refusal to go quietly into the night, as
have other presidents before him, Barry is also very actively involved in what
can only be described as an aggressive campaign of sabotage against Donald
Trump. And while he may claim that he’s only
seeking to protect the country from what he claims is Trump’s dangerous
policies, his true motivation is more likely something much more ominous, even
sinister. Because he knows, he has to
know, that if Trump becomes successful in his effort to “make America great
again” he will also succeed in revealing just how much of a colossal failure, and
unmitigated disaster, Barry’s policies have truly been.
It would seem the Barry has been going out of his
way, of late, to make things as difficult as he can for our new president. Whether it’s his attempt to bring about a new
cold war with Russia, his ban on oil drilling both on public lands and off
shore, his blatant national-monument land grab, his choosing to eliminating the
national immigration registry, his orchestrating the great Guantanamo jailbreak
or doing all that he can to depict Trump’s election as being nothing more than
a disaster for America and the world, Barry is proving himself to be little
more than a very dedicated saboteur. A
role that you can very plainly see that he very much relishes.
Meanwhile, Barry's crimes number, quite literally,
into the thousands. The comforting thing is, anything the Barry has done via
fiat can be quickly undone with a single stroke of Trump's pen. This is the problem with Barry ruling by
executive order rather than governing by legislation, his so-called "accomplishments"
are not worth the paper on which they are written. Barry's totalitarian rule
via non-representative fiat is smoke in a hurricane and will not override
representative government. I very much miss
my Constitutional Republic and desperately want it back! And I pray every day that Mr. Trump is up to
the very daunting challenge that lies ahead of him.
