Gerard Van der Leun:
"Obama is intelligent, charming, good-looking, stylish, well-educated and slick. He's everything that other people who value such surfaces look for... not in a leader, but in an icon. And that's what they're buying by buying Obama, an icon. A glowing plastic post-modern Jesus for the dashboard of their Prius. They know, as we all know by now, that he can talk the talk. He just can't walk the walk. He's soft talk and no stick.
I keep coming back to the one indisputable fact first spoken in Sarah Palin's acceptance speech: "There is only one man in this election who has ever really fought for you ... in places where winning means survival and defeat means death."
One of those places where defeat means death is in the Oval Office on a very bad day.
Just to be clear, I'm not saying Obama is not a man. He's just not man enough for the job."
We can't say that we haven't been warned......
If a presidential candidate is a Senator that has voted to the far left of another Senator that calls himself a Socialist, runs for president with moderate, or even conservative ideas (tax cutter, etc.), is there any reason to believe that he will govern from the middle, rather than revert to the far left? Heck, with his radical associations, Obama couldn't even get a top security clearance, other than being elected president. He couldn't even qualify to be a National Security Adviser.
ReplyDeleteI don't think so.
Barack Obama too radical fkor America.
