Dorothy Rabinowitz: The Alien in the White House – In More Ways than one!
Finally the Main Stream and Main Street realize the man in the white house not only isn’t what they expected, he’s not even who he really says he is millions of us believe and have been labeled “birthers” for our prescience for the most part…. but my word to those who sling invective when they can’t believe the truth confronting them is “why then would a president who needs a friend more than anyone continue to hide his past, as this one has done and continues to do?”
Because it’s mostly a lie for starters and nothing since the outset of the BP oil crisis has become more evident than Obama’s lack of executive experience and without that he’s unable to surround himself with the right people who have it. These folks are all mostly ‘academics’ and haven’t got much ‘real world’ problem solving experience, which is what’s needed most during a crisis as this, as a ‘good executive’ is only as ‘good’ as his ‘go to people’ to whom he or she delegates authority.
I just hope and pray more and more Americans wake up and realize Obama’s goal is to divide us and conquer us as he’s been doing quite successfully, and the conservatives I know wish the liberals would join us in getting our country back, because frankly, they’ve lost as much as we have during these first 16 months and will continue to do so as will we.
After all, we all make mistakes and this man was most definitely mistake, lets just fix it in November and let the ‘new reps’ figure out what to do with him.
This is a wonderful Op ed which Sean Hannity dedicated the opening 20 minutes of his show this afternoon to elaborate on.
It’s a MUST READ, don’t miss it!
Dorothy Rabinowitz: The Alien in the White House -
The deepening notes of disenchantment with Barack Obama now issuing from commentators across the political spectrum were predictable. So, too, were the charges from some of the president’s earliest enthusiasts about his failure to reflect a powerful sense of urgency about the oil spill.
There should have been nothing puzzling about his response to anyone who has paid even modest critical attention to Mr. Obama’s pronouncements. For it was clear from the first that this president—single-minded, ever-visible, confident in his program for a reformed America saved from darkness by his arrival—was wanting in certain qualities citizens have until now taken for granted in their presidents.
Namely, a tone and presence that said: This is the Americans’ leader, a man of them, for them, the nation’s voice and champion. Mr. Obama wasn’t lacking in concern about the oil spill. What he lacked was that voice—and for good reason.
Those qualities to be expected in a president were never about rhetoric; Mr. Obama had proved himself a dab hand at that on the campaign trail. They were a matter of identification with the nation and to all that binds its people together in pride and allegiance. These are feelings held deep in American hearts, unvoiced mostly, but unmistakably there and not only on the Fourth of July.
A great part of America now understands that this president’s sense of identification lies elsewhere, and is in profound ways unlike theirs. He is hard put to sound convincingly like the leader of the nation, because he is, at heart and by instinct, the voice mainly of his ideological class. He is the alien in the White House, a matter having nothing to do with delusions about his birthplace cherished by the demented fringe.
One of his first reforms was to rid the White House of the bust of Winston Churchill—a gift from Tony Blair—by packing it back off to 10 Downing Street.
A cloudlet of mystery has surrounded the subject ever since, but the central fact stands clear. The new administration had apparently found no place in our national house of many rooms for the British leader who lives on so vividly in the American mind. Churchill, face of our shared wartime struggle, dauntless rallier of his nation who continues, so remarkably, to speak to ours. For a president to whom such associations are alien, ridding the White House of Churchill would, of course, have raised no second thoughts.
