>> By Daniel Greenfield Thursday, June 11, 2009
>>
>> In the sixth month of his presidency, Obama has turned an
>> economic downturn into an economic disaster, taking over and trashing
>> entire companies, and driving the nation deep into deficit spending
>> expected to pass 10 trillion dollars.
>>
>> Abroad, Obama seems to have no other mode except to continue on
>> with his endless campaign, confusing speechmaking with diplomacy. It is
>> natural enough that Obama, who built his entire campaign on high profile
>> public speeches reported on by an adoring press, understands how to do
>> nothing else but that.
>>
>> Ego driven photo op appearances and clueless treatment of
>> foreign dignitaries
>>
>> While the press is still chewing over Obama's Cairo speech, this
>> celebrity style coverage ignores the fact that Obama's endless world
>> tour is not actually accomplishing anything. Instead his combination of
>> ego driven photo op appearances and clueless treatment of foreign
>> dignitaries have alienated many of America 's traditional allies. Those
>> who aren't being quietly angry at Obama, like Brown, Merkel or
>> Netanyahu, instead think of him as absurdly lightweight, as Sarkozy,
>> King Abdullah or Putin do.
>>
>> While his officials carry out their dirty economic deeds, Obama
>> responds to any and every crisis as if it were a Mickey Rooney and Judy
>> Garland musical, with a cry of, "Let's put on a show." Thus far Obama
>> has put on "shows" across America , Europe and the Middle East . And
>> what the adoring media coverage neglects to cover, is that Obama's shows
>> have solved absolutely nothing. They have served only as high profile
>> entertainment.
>>
>> Neither alienating America ' s traditional allies, through a
>> combination of arrogant bullying and ignorance, nor appeasing America 's
>> enemies, has yielded any actual results. Nor does it seem likely to.
>> Islamic terrorism is not going anywhere, neither are the nuclear threats
>> from North Korea and Iran . While Obama keeps smiling, the global
>> situation keeps growing more grim.
>>
>> At home, if Obama was elected as depression era entertainment,
>> the charm of his smiles and his constant appearances on magazine covers
>> appear to be wearing thin on the American public. Despite the shrill
>> attacks on Rush Limbaugh or the Republican Enemy of the Weak-- the
>> Democratic party of 2009, is polling a lot like the Republican party of
>> 2008. The Democrats have suddenly become the incumbents, and the only
>> accomplishment they can point to is lavish deficit spending, often on
>> behalf of the very same corporations and causes they once postured
>> against.
>>
>> The European Union Parliament's swing to the right cannot be
>> credited to Obama, though doubtlessly some European voters seeing
>> socialist economic crisis management on display in the world's richest
>> country decided they wanted none of it, but it is part of a general
>> turning against federalism. And Obama's entire program is dependent on
>> heavily entrenching federalism at the expense of individual and state's
>> rights. Yet that is precisely his achilles heel with independent voters
>> who are polling against more taxes and expanded government. And no
>> amount of speeches by Obama can wish away his 18 czars or the national
>> debt he has foisted on generation after generation of the American
>> people.
>>
>> That leaves Obama with a choice between socialism and the
>> independent voter. And thus far he has chosen socialism.
>>
>> Obama's tactic of hijacking Bush Administration era policies on
>> the economy and the War on Terror, and exploiting them as trojan horses
>> to promote his own agenda, have left him coping with a backlash from his
>> own party, as well as general Republican opposition.
>>
>> His Czars are meant to function as the bones in an executive
>> infrastructure accountable to no one, but a lack of accountability isn't
>> just another word for tyranny, but for incompetence. A functional chain
>> of command is accountable at multiple levels if it is to function
>> effectively. Obama's White House by contrast is in a state of
>> over-organized chaos, the sort of organized disorganization that
>> undisciplined egotistical leftists naturally create for themselves,
>> complete with multiple overlapping levels of authority and no one in
>> charge but the man at the top, who's too busy doing other things to
>> actually be in charge.
>>
>> Dennis Blair as National Intelligence, who collaborated with the
>> Muslim genocide of Christians in East Timor , trying to muscle out the
>> CIA to create his own intelligence network, is typical of the kind of
>> chaos being spawned by every chief in an expanding government
>> bureaucracy working to make sure that all the Indians answer to him.
>> Similarly the National Security Council wrestling with the State
>> Department, highlighted by Samantha Power getting her own specially
>> created NSC position to butt heads with Secretary of State Hillary
>> Clinton, illustrates the state of conflict and chaos in American foreign
>> affairs. A state of chaos so pervasive that incompetence has now become
>> commonplace, and no one can even be found to double check the spelling
>> of a Russian word that is meant to be the theme of American's diplomatic
>> reconstruction with Russia , or to pick out a gift for the visiting
>> British Prime Minister.
>>
>> The death of Chrysler at the hands of Fiat and the UAW
>> Meanwhile on the economy, Obama exploited the ongoing bailouts,
>> transforming them from bailouts into takeovers meant to shift the
>> balance of power in what had been a democracy and socially engineer not
>> only corporations, but the lives of ordinary Americans. But the public's
>> patience with corporate bailouts is at an end, most Americans were never
>> happy with them to begin with, and want them to end. The death of
>> Chrysler at the hands of Fiat and the UAW might look like a victory in
>> the union ranks, but it doesn't play too well outside Detroit . And
>> tacking on CAFE standards that will kill the pickup truck and the SUV
>> will badly erode Obama in the swing states, if exploited properly in
>> 2010 and 2012. Despite the constant media barrage, orchestrated out of
>> the White House, the public is growing disenchanted with the performance
>> of Obama and the Democrats.
>> With unemployment booming and the economy dropping, the jobs
>> aren't there and the s pending is out of control. Republicans today are
>> polling better on ethics and the economy, than the Democrats are. That
>> shows a trend which is likely to register in the mid-term elections in
>> 2010, in the same way that the EU parliamentary elections served as a
>> shock to the system.
>>
>> In the opposition, Republicans are free to embrace the rhetoric
>> of change, to champion reform and push libertarian ideas about the size
>> and scope of government. In turn all Obama has is his celebrity fueled
>> media spectacle world tour. A charade now serving as a parallel to the
>> depression era entertainment that functioned as escapism in a dour time.
>> But before long, it may be Obama that the American public will want to
>> escape from.
>>
>> A shallow, manipulative and egotistical amateur who is in over
>> his head
>>
>> Obama has tried to play Lincoln, Reagan, JFK and FDR-- but in
>> the end he can only play himself, a shallow, manipulative and
>> egotistical amateur who is in over his head, and trying to drag the
>> country down with him. Obama's White House is falling down and while the
>> flashbulbs are still glittering and the parties are going on in D.C. and
>> around the world, Obama and the Democratic Congress may be headed for a
>> recession of their own.
