The Coming Winter of Our Discontent

This was supposed to be the post partisan President. This was supposed to be the post racial President. Yet Barack Obama has polarized the country in ways not seen since the dark days of Richard Nixon and the Vietnam War. He has opened up racial wounds. He has used thuggery like all leftists do. He is using the courts to sue America’s citizens, like all leftists do. His surrogates are screaming racism in the various tea party movements while the only racist rhetoric I have heard have come from Black Panthers, black ministers, and the NAACP.

He has overwhelmed the system with leftist programs to the point people have stopped watching the news because they are shell shocked. Yet anger is seething beneath the surface, and it will erupt. You can’t govern against the will of the governed for long before there is a reaction. Just ask Richard Nixon.

Will the reaction be violent? Probably not, at least until after the fall election. But if a lame duck leftist Congress tries to ram through an ultra leftist agenda after the election and against the will of the people, I will guarantee you will see citizens storming the Capitol building, perhaps forming human barricades to prevent Congress from voting for any more Christmas Eve surprises like health care last year. America has had enough.

The shame is that real progress had been made in race relations in this country. African Americans, finally given access to the successful path of other immigrant groups, have followed that path through law enforcement, then into local politics, then into state politics, and finally into national politics. The liberal designated “Uncle Tom” blacks like Colin Powell, Clarence Thomas, Condoleezza Rice to name a few, blazed the trail for the first African American President, elected on bringing parties and races together. He fooled us, and fooled us good. His policies have been anything but, and have fostered racial hatred and renewed racial bigotry. He has managed to destroy years of racial progress by appealing to the most radical and extreme of the fringe left and the black community.

What did we think we were getting when we voted for this guy? He was surrounded by radicals and communists. He couldn’t last six months at his job on Wall Street. His sole experience was registering minorities to vote, a noble thing to do, but not sufficient background to President of the United States. While the press crucified Sarah Palin and her family for her lack of experience, they neglected to look at Obama’s lack of experience in anything at all. His reaction to the gulf oil spill is a shiny reflection of that lack of his incompetence.

No he is in danger of losing control of the House in the fall, and possibly the Senate. So rather than slow down and regroup, he has decided to push through his radical agenda on energy and immigration…notice that jobs aren’t in the mix. After all, we don’t need any more white construction jobs. He doesn’t care!!!

Supreme Court Justice Kennedy has taken direct aim at Obama by stating he will not retire until after the next presidential election. In other words, all that stuff Obama has been doing…will be facing that 5 – 4 conservative vote. It’s not nice to diss the Supreme Court in the State of Union Address.

The only remaining question is how much more damage can he do before he is subjected to an education on checks and balances. Not much I hope. On the other hand, if he goes nuts with a shoved through progressive agenda…this winter might be our winter of discontent.
