The best that Barack Hussein Obama-Soetoro will be able to claim as his real epitaph might generously be

Sadly, as it appears now, he will likely not qualify for such high praise.

The Fate of Arrogance
I think of this passage from Ezekiel 28 every now and then as I contemplate the end of the hubris, the overweening pride, the arrogance of The Obamassiah:
2Ezekiel, son of man, tell the king of Tyre that I am saying: You are so arrogant that you think you’re a god and that the city of Tyre is your throne. You may claim to be a god, though you’re nothing but a mere human. 3You think you’re wiser than Daniel and know everything. 4Your wisdom has certainly made you rich, because you have storehouses filled with gold and silver. 5You’re a clever businessman and are extremely wealthy, but your wealth has led to arrogance!
6You compared yourself to a god, so now I, the LORD God, 7will make you the victim of cruel enemies. They will destroy all the possessions you’ve worked so hard to get. 8Your enemies will brutally kill you, and the sea will be your only grave.
9When you face your enemies, will you still claim to be a god? They will attack, and you will suffer like any other human.
I think on it, know I can have little (or no) effect upon The Ø’s fate and feel… not satisfaction (for who could wish such a fate on even such a sad sack of sh#t?) but resignation, I suppose. Better an extended counseling session with Dr. Tarr and Mr. Fether resulting in a “Damascus Road experience” than the ultimate fate eternity has for such a one as The Ø.
OK, technically The Ø did not himself compare himself to God, but his coy silence in the face of those who have done so combined with his plain arrogance is effectively the same thing.
Easy-Peasy Alien Invasion
Come to the USA, the country whose leaders have it in for citizens and welcome alien invaders with open arms…
It’s no wonder more and more folks feel this way:
Anti-ci-pa-a-tion…

Devolution
Its seems, given evidence from D.C., that the Republic has devolved from republic to democracy to kleptocratic kakistocracy.
No. No links. I’d have had to do one per letter in each sentence in this post. Just read the “news” and weep.
(Of course, such a devolution was assured once our “feddle gummint” started down the road into a more and more democratic reality. See this blogs header for but one of the reasons… )
Barack’s BS Bingo
You already know how to play.

Some Comedy… Isn’t
That is, some comedy is neither humorous nor funny. This TEA Party attendee illustrates:

Stopped Clocks, Blind Pigs and All That
Now, we can add radical leftists to the list of improbable stumblers-upon-truth:
The level of anger and fear is like nothing I can compare in my lifetime. Ridiculing the tea party shenanigans is a serious error. For over 30 years, real incomes have stagnated or declined…The bankers, who are primarily responsible for the crisis, are now reveling in record bonuses while official unemployment is around 10 percent and unemployment in the manufacturing sector is at Depression-era levels. The financial industry preferred Obama to McCain. They expected to be rewarded and they were. Then Obama began to criticize greedy bankers and proposed measures to regulate them. And the punishment for this was very swift: they were going to shift their money to the Republicans. So Obama said bankers are ‘fine guys’ and assured the business world: ‘I, like most of the American people, don’t begrudge people success or wealth. That is part of the free-market system.’ People see that and are not happy about it. People want some answers. They are hearing answers from only one place: Fox, talk radio, and Sarah Palin.
And what radical right-wing “tea bagger” terrorist said that? Noam Chomsky
I understand that Satan’s breaking out his long underwear.
While he was at it, Chomsky said a few other surprising–for a radical leftwing “intellectual” (yes, scare quotes around intellectual in reference to Chomsky’s retarded, reactionary excuses for advancing his socialist agenda. His legitimate contributions to linguistics are another very different story). Notably, taking note of all the swooning over The Ø!’s rhetoric,
“I’m just old enough to have heard a number of Hitler’s speeches on the radio, and I have a memory of the texture and the tone of the cheering mobs, and I have the dread sense of the dark clouds of fascism gathering…”
Yep, just another radical right-wing “tea bagger” racist spewing hate at a café au lait cyanide-laced Oreo in the White House. Noam Chomsky, of all people.
What The Ø!’s Policies Seem Aimed to Accomplish
This.
[T]he crucial issue in Kyrgyzstan was that the prices were driven up by government fiat, albeit following a decision to remove subsidies which had enabled energy to be sold at less than the cost of production. It can be assumed, from this, that where government action is directly responsible for price hikes, governments will take the flak.
