Obama Advisor: Our Political
System Isn´t ´Worthy´ of Obama
and the Opportunity He Presents

Weekly Standard, by Daniel Halper

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/21/2013 4:35:19 PM

President Barack Obama´s communications director, Dan Pfeiffer, says that our political system isn´t "worthy" of Obama and the opportunity the president presents. He made the remarks the Washington Post. “There’s a moment of opportunity now that’s important,” Pfeiffer tells the paper. “What’s frustrating is that we don’t have a political system or an opposition party worthy of the opportunity.” The issue is that if President Obama wants to get things done, he´ll have to work with the uncompromising Republicans."If he is successful, his record could include a variety of legislative achievements

Comments:
Things that make your jaw drop open. I have never in my lifetime seen more arrogant, traitorous jerks occupying the White House. It is just astonishing what they are emboldened to say. Someone needs to take them down a few notches. Sadly, I don´t know of anyone able to do so.

What Obama wants is not a country of free peoples whom he can govern - and really, if we are truly free, we don´t need all that much governing - he wants an ant farm he can be master of. Crawl over here, dig a hole over there, move this pile of sand to that pile of sand, and I will sprinkle grains of sugar over all.

These political groupies and fanboys don´t know or care how the system is supposed to work. They are dogmatic fanatics who think they have all the answers and that anyone who dares to disagree is evil, stupid, or crazy. This mindset reflects the massive, in fact catastrophic failure of genuine liberal (as in broad-minded, widely informed) education since the Sixties. America is besieged by militant partisan drones who literally cannot conceive of any reason everyone would not share their personal beliefs.

Yep, he´s Washington, Lincoln, T. Roosevelt and Jefferson combined, except for, you know, any accomplishments.
All of his purported "achievements" have already failed, and the one success he can point to he didn´t even want to agree to. His underling had to force him to give the "Go" order for that one.
The only opportunity he presents is for even further failures and derision. Dan Pfeiffer must be a comedy writer for Stewart or Colbert on the side and another four years of obama/biden will be good for him. The good satirists are going to lampoon this stuffed shirt now that he´s not running for office again. Second terms are always when the sharper comments come out.

No one has had more control over the political system than Obama after his first inauguration. He had 60 votes in the Senate and a large majority in the House. He couldn´t get things done because he was to the left of enough members in this own party and he was unwilling to lead. He´s completely unworthy of his role.

Most of us on this site knew prior to 2008 that Obama, along with his handlers & hangers-on were unlike any to ever wield the levers of power in the history of this country. However, they are not completely unfamiliar to us who have dealt with maladjusted children. We know that they will do a great deal of damage before they are stopped.

These people have absolutely NO understanding of why 49% Americans find ´he´ and his cadre of ´fellow thinkers´ ......... and the direction they are taking us ........ a horrific continuing nightmare ........... and they don´t care!

For four years it has gotten progressively worse .......... and will do so exponentially for four more years! They castigate and name-call ALL those who differ are not following their mind set.

We are not any of those appellations thrown at us ......... and we grieve as we see our beloved Nation and Constitution dismurked (sec.) ..... and the generations of those dying for it, betrayed.

´What can we do?´ We do not want to live in ´his´ world .............. We cannot afford to go into exile abroad and suicide being morally an anathema ........... we await knowing like those in 1921 Russia, 1933 Germany and 1949 China ...... the noose is closing around our necks.

To paraphrase Winston Churchill´s 1946 Speech ...........

"a dark curtain has descended across the Continent .......... the dark ages may return ............ I have never lost faith in destiny, even in the darkest hours,I will not lose faith now ........ fifth columns constitute a growing challenge and peril to Christian civilization."

"these are somber facts but we should be most unwise not to face them squarely while time remains ........... do not suppose we shall not come through these dark years of privation as we have come through the glorious years of agony ............"

"with all moral and material forces and convictions the highroads of the future will be clear, not only for our time, but for a century to come."

Take heart fellow countrymen! It was ´he´ who could not abide the bust of Winston Churchill in the White House!

We will persevere!

Having been education secretary, she successfully challenged former prime minister Edward Heath for her party´s leadership in 1975.

One of the first political issues negotiators must tackle in crafting an immigration reform bill is among the most important: what to name it. It’s a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles. “Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that´s positive or a brand that doesn´t mean anything or even hurts you,” said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America’s Voice.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —
