Obama’s State of the Union speech, 2014:

A comment from a journalist who happens to be black:

Obama Imperial TreeGreat Caesar’s Ghost
On the nauseating spectacle that is the State of the Union address

The annual State of the Union pageant is a hideous, dispiriting, ugly, monotonous, un-American, un-republican, anti-democratic, dreary, backward, monarchical, retch-inducing, depressing, shameful, crypto-imperial display of official self-aggrandizement and piteous toadying, a black Mass during which every unholy order of teacup totalitarian and cringing courtier gathers under the towering dome of a faux-Roman temple to listen to a speech with no content given by a man with no content, to rise and to be seated as is called for by the order of worship — it is a wonder they have not started genuflecting — with one wretched representative of their number squirreled away in some well-upholstered Washington hidey-hole in order to preserve the illusion that those gathered constitute a special class of humanity without whom we could not live.

It’s the most nauseating display in American public life — and I write that as someone who has just returned from a pornographers’ convention.

It’s worse than the Oscars.

Many times worse, I’d posit.  Because it’s not about a number of so-called “artistes,” but about ONE MAN.

Tami Jackson speaks the truth about guns:

Imagine this: a speech made by an individual — in Salem, Oregon — in front of a large audience, off-the-cuff, extemporaneously, with no TelePrompter, consulting no notes.  That in itself kicks Mr Obama to the proverbial Speech Curb.

And yet, in full view of her peers — the toughest audience of all — Tami Jackson kicks some major Second Amendment butt in front of the Oregon State Capitol.

With a semi-auto in hand.

Tami Jackson wishes to acknowledge the hard work and video skills of Dan Sandini, who has his own site here, at Daylight Disinfectant.  He has a YouTube channel here.  Mr Sandini has also done prior video work for Andrew Breitbart.  Dan Sandini

I recommend Tami Jackson’s commentary at the BlackSphere.net.

She works on the 405Radio, with an internet radio show.

Tami Jackson is a substitute host on the Bill Post Show as well.

Tami Jackson simply speaks the Truth.

Obama: my approval ratings are down because Caucasoids are racist

Race Card Played

[And isn’t this a perfect post for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day — a situation that dishonors MLK.]

From Bloomberg.com:

Obama Says Racial Animus Blunts Approval, New Yorker Reports

President Barack Obama said that racial tensions may have softened his popularity among white voters within the last two years, according to a story posted on the New Yorker magazine’s website today.

“There’s no doubt that there’s some folks who just really dislike me because they don’t like the idea of a black president,” Obama said in the article by David Remnick, appearing in the magazine’s Jan. 27 edition.

But this time it’s not an Obama Minion claiming this.

It’s Obama Himself, throwing down the pettiest and cheapest card ever.

I am so tired of the hackneyed, puerile, obvious, cheap and patronizing old saw that Caucasoids are racist simply because of their melanin.  I’d posit the reverse about blacks, having voted skin color over competence in 2008 and again in 2012.  I am so over that trite card — the race card.

It’s what gets played when Obama — and his sycophants — have no other move.  It’s what defense attorneys do in court when they lack a cogent argument and the facts and the case go against them: the cheap and personal attack.

Which is why I shall continue to point out the obvious on my blog: blacks can be every bit — or more — racist than Caucasoids.

And: they’ve got the GOWPs and the AMM in their pockets.

Senior UK Defense Advisor: Obama Is Clueless About ‘What He Wants To Do In The World’

Obama No SenseFacts in evidence, I’d say.

From TheDailyBeast.com:

Sir Hew Strachan, an expert on the history of war, says that the president’s strategic failures in Afghanistan and Syria have crippled America’s position in the world.

President Obama is “chronically incapable” of military strategy and falls far short of his predecessor George W. Bush, according to one of Britain’s most senior military advisors.

Sir Hew Strachan, an advisor to the Chief of the Defense Staff, told The Daily Beast that the United States and Britain were guilty of total strategic failure in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Obama’s attempts to intervene on behalf of the Syrian rebels “has left them in a far worse position than they were before.”

The extraordinary critique by a leading advisor to the United States’ closest military ally comes days after Obama was undermined by the former Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who questioned the President’s foreign policy decisions and claimed he was deeply suspicious of the military.

Mr Obama is an uninvolved “leader” of the Western World, who believes that the WW and in particular the United States needs to atone for past “sins” up to and including the simple guilty possession of heretofore unmatched power on the planet.

Obama is an overpaid and over-esteemed empty suit.
