President Barak Obama knows how to package
his communications. He is the master of the Teleprompter and not so precise
when responding extemporaneously. Unfortunately, what he actually means or
intends when he makes pronouncements about domestic or world situations is
usually 180 degrees from what he speaks:
When Obama says he will reduce the deficit,
what he really means is that he will allow it to increase as much as necessary
to accomplish his, often unspoken, objectives.
When he says we are solid friends of Israel
and then finances the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt which has just declared
Israel a mortal enemy.
When Obama declares that he is firmly on the
side of the rule of law and then proceeds to ignore its provisions to do just
what he wants.
We have got to get this non-citizen out of
office before he turns our nation over to the control of the United Nations.
Once that is accomplished, we need to prosecute him and his posse to the
fullest extent of the Constitution.
Update: 4/4/2012
Thomas Sowell today commented on GOPUSA (http://www.gopusa.com/commentary/2012/04/04/sowell-political-word-games/?subscriber=1)
that:
One
of the highly developed talents of President Barack Obama is the ability to say
things that are demonstrably false, and make them sound not only plausible but
inspiring.
That talent was displayed just this week when he was
asked whether he thought the Supreme Court would uphold ObamaCare as
constitutional or strike it down as unconstitutional.
He replied: "I'm confident that the Supreme Court
will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning
a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected
Congress."
But how unprecedented would it actually be if the Supreme
Court declared a law unconstitutional if it was passed by "a strong
majority of a democratically elected Congress"?
The Supreme Court has been doing precisely that for 209
years!
Nor is it likely that Barack Obama has never heard of it.
He has a degree from the Harvard law school and taught constitutional law at
the University of Chicago law school. In what must be one of the most famous
Supreme Court cases in history -- Marbury v. Madison in 1803 -- Chief Justice
John Marshall established the principle that the Supreme Court can declare acts
of Congress null and void if these acts violate the Constitution.
They have been doing so for more than two centuries. It
is the foundation of American constitutional law. There is no way that Barack
Obama has never heard of it or really believes it to be
"unprecedented" after two centuries of countless precedents.
In short, he is simply lying.
Sowell is a solid conservative observer and
commentator on the political battles taking place.
