Obama
lectures us on the truth and then proceeds to dispense his own jaded view of
reality using divisive rhetoric and the dissembling propaganda that would have
made Joseph Goebbels proud. This is a man who loves the sound of himself; a man
that depends on a soundbite per day to feed his incessant narcissism. His
leadership style is long on rhetoric and short on action and I grow weary of
his furled-brow lectures whenever anyone dares to counter his narrative with
facts.
I have never
seen a President who seems to relish the opportunity to demonize whole sectors
of our society - a man who constantly plays the partisan himself, and then
proceeds to diminish everyone else for their advocacy.
His
inability to withstand criticism or even consider perspectives outside of his
own, demonstrates the rigidity of his own ideology; the same ideology that
always looks to cast blame elsewhere - always searching for partisan advantage,
instead of accepting responsibility and moving forward decisively.
The
hypocrisy and political expediency that drives this administration is
breath-taking and for the Press to stand still and stay silent is perhaps the
greatest abdication of responsibility we have seen in America today second only
to the President's pledge to uphold and protect The Constitution of The United
States of America.
