First of all, believe it or not, this is an actual book! But, if you’d like to order a copy ($14.95), please note that it will not be released until June 29th. I hope that a lot of other people will also want to read about the Whiny Little Bitch in the White House, and it becomes a New York Slimes #1 best-seller, but I digress.

It’s written by Mike Cullen, and it’s about the total incompetency of the America-hating POS that occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Av. NW, the man-child bungler-in-chief himself, and the other America-hating scumbags, that, like cockroaches, infest his pathetic, inept socialism-loving administration.

Here’s the introduction, and it’s excellent, because it is spot-on…

I had never seen anything like it. Only 44 men have held the office of President of the United States. This guy gets into office, and even one year later, he still can’t stop sniveling about the man who held the position before him. Can you picture Abraham Lincoln engaging in a year-long whine about James Buchanan? I inherited this slavery problem, you know. So don’t get your hopes to high.

Touché! Beautifully written, huh? I thought so, also!

But I know, you want more, huh? I’ve got more!!!

About Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Incompetano, Cullen writes:

She’s proof that there is at least one person in Washington who is less qualified for her job than Barack Obama is for his.

Bwahahahaha!!!

Then there’s a chapter called “The 7 Habits of a Highly Ineffective President”. BTW, habit #7 is priceless!

1. I Didn’t Explain it Right- There’s nothing wrong with the policy. You yokels are too stupid to understand it.

2. Let Me Be clear- Let me be clear is the rhetorical equivalent of an exploding dye pack in a bag of cash. It indelibly marks all words that follow as false. “Let me be clear” pegs my bullshit meter.

3. Conflation – Treating two different concepts as if they were one: In an attempt to marginalize the Tea Party movement, Obama described them as people who question whether he is a US citizen and believe he’s a socialist. Two totally unrelated things.

4. The False Choice- When Americans look to their government for responsible solutions, Barack Obama lives to offer us the false choice. We can either support his stale brand of socialism or we can do nothing.

5. The False Promise- Closing Gitmo. Broadcasting the health care debate on CSPAN.

6. Blaming Your Opponents- Even more bizarre were his repeated attempts to blame Republicans for his own failures. With an overwhelming Democrat majority in the House and a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate, he still didn’t sign a single piece of major legislation in 2009.

7. Talking out of Your Ass- In situations that require a careful, measured (Let’s say presidential) response, Barack Obama comes across like the barroom drunk who thinks he’s an expert on everything. Facts are not important. Barry’s got something to say, and it’s a free country, dammit.

Examples: Skip Gates. Comments about Las Vegas.

This thread also ties in, rather nicely, to what former Florida governor Jeb Bush said Wednesday about Obama:

Jeb Bush tells President Obama: Stop blaming George W. Bush

Former Florida GOP Gov. Jeb Bush has grown tired of listening to Barack Obama blame his brother, telling Matt Bai, the “Political Times” columnist for The New York Times, that he finds the president’s behavior “childish.”

In an interview with Bai, Bush said that he has had enough of Obama frequently pointing back to his brother George W. Bush’s tenure to explain economic and budget problems, as well as failed oversight of the oil industry.

“It’s kind of like a kid coming to school saying, ‘The dog ate my homework,’” the former governor said of the president. “It’s childish. This is what children do until they mature. They don’t accept responsibility.”

“He apparently likes to act like he’s still campaigning, and he likes to blame George’s administration for everything,” Bush added.

Bush went on to criticize the president’s own stewardship of the economy, calling Obama “Hubert Humphrey on steroids.”

The Most Dangerous President in History

Obama believes in the rule of law- his law. No other law is relevant. No other law matters. When Obama speaks, he expects the world to obey.

In his Tuesday night performance, he said “I will meet with the chairman of BP and inform him that he is to set aside whatever resources are required to compensate the workers and business…” “Inform him?” Where does Barack Hussein Obama get the authority to issue orders to the CEO of a private corporation? There is no such authority in the Constitution. There is no law that empowers the president to “inform” the CEO of any corporation how he will spend the corporation’s money. Obama couldn’t care less about the Constitution or the law.

There was no Constitutional authority for him to essentially take over General Motors and Chrysler, or the banks. Obama couldn’t care less about the law. When he speaks, he expects the world to obey.

There is no Constitutional authority for the federal government to require American citizens to purchase health insurance or any other product or service. It doesn’t matter. Obama spoke; his Congressional majority of comrades obeyed.

In 18 months, the man has demonstrated that he cares nothing about the system of government created by our founders and enshrined in the Constitution. He has demonstrated that he fully intends to “fundamentally transform” the United States of America — as he promised in his campaign. Now we are beginning to get a picture of the nation he intends to build. The picture is frightening.

[Found here.]

The best summary of the various forms of government I’ve ever seen was in this must-see video from a year or so ago. If any of my fellow netizens haven’t seen it, it’s required viewing IMO.

I know I’m preaching to the choir, but if any of you have kids or grandkids that haven’t seen that video, it’s worth paying them to watch it.

Did someone say Open Thread?

Lone Jewish High School Student Faces Down Arab Mob in L.A.

Lone Jewish High School Student Faces Down Arab Mob in LA

A loud and angry mob of pro-Arab demonstrators outside the Israeli consulate in Los Angeles on Tuesday became even more enraged when one, lone Jewish high school student with a yarmulke and a large Israeli flag marched fearlessly alongside them.

The young man seemed to be unmoved by the angry curses hurled at him by the American-Arab crowd. Though protected by a line of policemen, it appeared he could be attacked at any moment.

Reporters asked him afterwards about his unusual presence, and he explained, “I came out because I want to defend Israel…They (the soldiers attempting to divert the flotilla ships) were attacked, and they had the right to defend [themselves]. These people [on the boats] were not humanitarians; their ship was armed with knives, batons, and all kinds of things to attack the Israelis with. There is a naval blockade on Gaza, and they [the soldiers] were just doing their job of enforcing it… Hamas is a terrorist organization trying to kill Israelis.”

Asked if he is affiliated with any group, he said, “Just Judaism and Israel, that’s it.”
