The Long Unraveling of Obama

By Jeff Gannon, jeffgannon.com

Last week, Sen. Hillary Clinton jumped all over Sen. Barack Obama for speeches he made that employed phrases and flourishes previously used by Deval Patrick during his run for governor of Massachusetts. The overblown charges of plagiarism from Clinton’s surrogates and the candidate’s own attack line, “change you can Xerox” unleashed during a debate had little effect.

The juvenile back-and-forth between the Democratic candidates about who used what words when hid the fact that neither Clinton nor Obama had much new to say. The campaigns of both candidates focused on the word “change” without offering any clue as to the specifics of the change they wanted to bring. Since both Clinton and Obama are disturbingly unqualified to be Commander in Chief, voters should ask as Walter Mondale did 24 years ago, “Where’s the beef?”

Sen. Clinton’s agenda is not much of a mystery, since it is reasonable to expect her presidency to be a third installment of “Weekend at Bill and Hill’s” or perhaps “Back to the Future III.” The country would be plunged into four years of the scandal and corruption that has followed the Clintons throughout their public lives and government run amok with liberal judges appointed to implement social policy from the bench and Marxist economists imposing fiscal policy to confiscate larger and larger amounts from individual taxpayers, small businesses and large corporations and redistribute it to cronies, bureaucrats, liberal activists and the lazy.

Some Democrats and the Old Media have portrayed Barack Obama as a combination of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. with a bit of the Messiah mixed in. However, the Illinois junior senator’s soaring oratory, while powerful enough to send a shiver up Chris Matthews’ leg, is devoid of substance. To say that Obama’s record of accomplishment is thin would be generous, virtually non-existent would be more accurate.

Because the racial politics Democrats waged against Republicans for decades have come home to roost, Obama has not been vetted by the party on the verge of making him their choice to take on John McCain, the only adult among the three presidential contenders. The Old Media has no intention of taking a critical look at someone who has sparked a flashback to their hippie days of marching for civil rights and against the Vietnam War.

The job of introducing the electorate to the real Barack Obama will fall to the New Media. A good place to start is with Obama’s “Global Poverty Act”, a massive giveaway program that not only puts hundreds of millions of American taxpayer dollars into the hands of corrupt United Nations types, but also commits the United States to various sovereignty-sacrificing programs such as gun control, global warming reduction schemes and the International Criminal Court.

Strip away Barack Obama’s seductive “Barry White” speaking style and mocha exterior and what is revealed is a garden variety far-left radical. The photograph the Clinton campaign passed around Monday that pictured Obama dressed up like Osama bin Laden was a valid political shot, contrary to the gasps and outrage of the Obama campaign and the Old Media. It showed how comfortable Obama was in a turban, yet the man who wants to lead the United States confessed how uncomfortable he felt with an American flag pin on his lapel:

"Shortly after 9/11, particularly because as we're talking about the Iraq War, that [American flag lapel pin] became a substitute for I think true patriotism, which is speaking out on issues that are of importance to our national security, I decided I won't wear that pin on my chest.”

This is only the beginning of the long unraveling of Barack Obama.
