I’ve been wondering how it’s possible under the current circumstances that anyone who voted for Obama is not riddled with buyer’s remorse. I keep hearing from these people that “he’s only been in office xx days! Give him a chance.”
A chance to do what?
Look, I didn’t run on the platform of change and hope. I didn’t run on the “getting our forces out of Iraq within xx months” and “creating xx jobs” blah blah blah. Yes, yes I know it’s all politicians rhetoric, but have you been paying attention? The economy has not leveled out man, it’s plunging like Monica on Bill! (I promise that’s the last time I use that metaphor). His solution, MASTERCARD, INTERNATIONAL! SO WORLDLY SO WELCOME….” Cha-ching, mo money, mo money.
Take the economy out of the equation and start listening to our enemies in Iran. They don’t seem to be under the Obamessiah’s spell. For those of you who thought electing someone named Barrack Hussein Obama would make the Islamo-lunatics start to like us, well, yeah, you’re morons. Don’t get me started on Russia and Venezuela.
Then there’s his administration picks. What’s the pre-requisite to be on a tax raising presidential staff? Avoid paying taxes.
We got an Attorney General calling America cowards for not having a dialogue on race? Where has this genius been? Frankly I’m getting tired of the damned race dialogue and I certainly don’t need the AG telling me how to conduct my personal life. Did he sip some of Obama’s holier-than-all-a-y’all juice?
Now I know the ultra leftist is ecstatic with Obama, no matter what he does. They love him for jess bein him. I know blacks are wearing him like a proud badge of accomplishment cause he representin. The people I’m wondering about are what many like to refer to as “centrists”. I pay attention, I read varied sources and I’m wondering where is their “whoops!” moment.
Then I came across Burt Prelusky’s column. He finally nailed it for me when he wrote:
“Frankly, I don’t know why anybody continues to hold Obama in high esteem. Maybe it’s like those women who marry charming fellows only to discover after the vows have been exchanged that he’s an abuser. In spite of the black eyes and split lips, the ladies are just too embarrassed to call the cops and have their friends and relatives discover what a dunderhead they’ve been.”
Now there’s a theory I can get behind. It’s one of those things I teach in my women’s self defense classes and seminars. Plus, there’s a relevant case in the media right now involving Rhianna and Chris Brown.
Here’s what I tell my students. If you’re in one of those relationships get out. Don’t beat yourself up for following your passion and ignoring your better instincts and the voice in your head. It’s not too late to get out of it, but you have to get out now, before he kills you.
Damn. I guess that doesn’t apply here. We got four more years.
