"Should not the multitude of words be answered? and should a man full of talk be justified? Should thy lies make men hold their peace? and when thou mockest, shall no man make thee ashamed?" (Job 11: 2-3)The president, now well known for his ability to lie in the face of facts, presents a mystery to the average American. It seems we may need at least a bachelor's degree or better to handle the question of whether he is an inveterate liar or the sort of person who actually believes what he says, facts notwithstanding. It will take more than a simple Rorschach test to get through to the psyche of this president, but maybe it isn't about the president alone, it is about the pathology of all flaming liberals. Incongruity, hypocrisy and flying against all reasonability are more of an ideological problem than a psychological one. Example: When O'Reilly read the email from one of his viewers asking Obama why he would want to fundamentally change America when it had given him (the president) so much, he all but denied he ever said it! Where was O'Reilly's -- oh really? Bill inserted a quick, "but those are your words," and then moved on to the next subject. Was it a time constraint, or O'Reilly's unwillingness to raise the temperature during the interview, we may never know. Here's what we do know. On October 30, 2008 in a campaign rally in Columbia, Missouri, Barack Obama spoke these words loud and clear to the entire nation.
"After decades of broken politics in Washington, and eight years of failed policies from George W. Bush, and 21 months of a campaign that's taken us from the rocky coast of Maine to the sunshine of California, we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America." -- Barack ObamaA nation enamored with celebrities and the entertainment industry may have been well primed to elect a pop-culture figure for a president, but time and reality will not be denied. As Obama's rhetoric starts to crash against the rocky shores of his record, the American people are bound to take notice. The president danced around O'Reilly's questions like a ballerina in a match with a Sumo wrestler. But it doesn't end there because Mr. Obama still has to contend with Abraham Lincoln. It won't be O'Reilly's best that reveals the obfuscations of Barack Obama, but it will be the wisdom of the Prophet President that will be his undoing. Don't just read it again -- but read it with Barack Obama in mind. "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time" -- Abraham Lincoln Suggested keywords:
