Egypt, Obamacare, border security and the economy spell the end of the Obama Presidency

There are so many stakes in the heart of the Obama Juggernaut that its mutilated body is unrecognizable. Obama has failed at everything he has touched and now his failures are turning on him mercilessly. The Obama Presidency is dead.
Arizona and immigration
Arizonans have endured the floggings, beatings from Obama’s endless lawsuits for over two years now. Arizonans have had their security compromised and their state placed in a bigger dangerous environment from emboldened drug trading from Mexico. Obama has made sure Arizonans cannot defend themselves successfully. The trouble is that Arizonans are a tough lot, a very tough lot. The more they are oppressed by Obama’s Justice Department the more they rise to the occasion and the more they hand Obama one failure after the other. Whether it is the Giffords-Obama rally, Sheriff Joe’s roundup of illegal aliens, defending against Obama’s immigration lawsuits, Arizonans end up coming up as the good guys at least when you consider the polls. Close to 75% of Americans support Arizona’s actions.
Let’s not forget that according to FBI statistics over 10,000 people have been killed on the US-Mexico border every year for the last four years. That’s over 40,000 people killed. As a matter of fact, last year 2010 more people were killed on the US-Mexico border than in Afghanistan. That is Obama’s legacy to Arizonans a war torn southern border worse than the killing in Afghanistan or Iraq.
Janet Napolitano, humorously nicknamed Janet Incompetano, warned the drug cartels not to bring their border crime into the U.S recently.
“(Reuters) – Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano on Monday warned Mexico‘s drug cartels that any attempt to bring their violent tactics across the border would produce a powerful reaction.” More…
Well guess what Janet. The drug cartel crime and violence is already here. There are confirmed police reports of beheadings in Phoenix and have you forgotten that Phoenix has been called the kidnap capital of the world?
“In what officials caution is now a dangerous and even deadly crime wave, Phoenix, Arizona has become the kidnapping capital of America, with more incidents than any other city in the world outside of Mexico City and over 370 cases last year alone.” More…
At the same time a few months earlier, Incompetano declared that Arizona and the other US Mexico border states were the safest they had ever been.
Since the border is a mess and a policy disaster, Obama has Napolitano going to the next crisis du jour in order to leverage her effectiveness. She is now head meteorologist girl of the country She has been commissioned to brief the president on how the latest wave of blizzards in the United States is a threat to national security. She cannot make a difference on our borders so she will go and do a little weather forecasting for fun and security.
“ABC New’s Sunlen Miller reports: From the Oval Office President Obama was briefed this morning over the phone by DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano and FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate in preparations being made for the winter storm that is making its way eastward across at least one-third of the country.” More…
Now the rest of the country is experiencing what Arizona has endured
Arizona has endured a disproportionate animosity from the Obama administration. Arizona would not lie down and now Obama limps on to other weaker targets. Remember this rule of thumb. Obama is weak before the strong and strong before the weak. Arizona has become too strong for the Obama bullying to be effective.
The rest of the nation is now experiencing the Obama wrath.
Obama’s greed for power has thrust him into a pool of unmitigated failures. There is a saying that greedy people make mistakes. The Obama juggernaut is now jinxed because of its greed for power with no possibility of success.
Unconstitutional Obamacare
“ How did Obama ever think that his program would pass constitutional muster? How could he imagine that the Interstate Commerce clause could cover something that wasn’t interstate (health insurance cannot be sold over state lines) and wasn’t commerce (failure to buy insurance is not commerce) would stand up in court? He was so sure that he would win any constitutional challenge that he arrogantly failed to put a severability clause in the bill so that it would survive even if parts were stricken down,” says Dick Morris in his latest article “Obamacare D.O.A.”
How indeed? It was simply his greed for power. And lest you have any doubts how the Supreme Court will rule keep in mind that in Judge Vison’s latest ruling where he voided Obamacare he sites Justice Kennedy’s ruling on the commerce clause as the basis for voiding Obamacare.( Click here if you want to read the entire ruling). No one is talking about this, but this is a very big deal since Kennedy will be the fifth vote to strike down the law at the Supreme Court level.
Egypt
Has anyone wondered why Egypt is all of the sudden such a big, big deal? Over the last 24 months there have been many crises. Remember how Obama was all over the news for Haiti. Do you remember how he was going to make Haiti a top priority? It is now a year later and Haiti is a shambles. It is disease infested and cholera infested. The people live in squalor and it is relegated to the medieval oubliette. The point is that there have been many world crises, but now Egypt is the center of the universe? Why exactly.
It simply strikes us as yet another distraction from the myriad of disasters that Obama has stoked. As we said earlier, Americans from all corners of the country are getting a good taste of the Obama efficacy and now the lucky Egyptians are also at the end of the Obama whip. When you listen to the reports you are told that the Egyptians are rebelling because of the food prices. Where does the rise in prices come from? They come from Obama’s quantitative easing policies. They come from Obama’s reckless spending. This spending is creating inflation in commodities which translates in rising food prices everywhere. Now he is riding into Egypt dictating how things are going to be much like he rode into Arizona telling everyone how things were going to be. Like Arizonans, Egyptians are telling him to go pound sand as he is leaving a bigger mess then if he had done nothing. By telling Mubarak to leave, he thought the Egyptian mobs would bow before him. Instead the mobs want more blood and more destruction. This is the Obama way.
Where exactly does Obama get off telling sovereign countries what to do? It was Obama who said during his inaugural trip that no longer would one country tell another what to do. This apparently applied to everyone except him.
Lastly there is the economy
As we go back to Dick Morris’ article “ Obamacare:DOA”, he concludes that the economy is on life support since all the growth is coming from restocked inventories and inflation not robust consumerism.
“His [Obama’s] bureaucracy puts out a GDP growth rate of 3.4 percent for the fourth quarter. Baloney. The price deflator he used to discount the impact of inflation on the supposed GDP growth was a ridiculous 0.3 percent for the fourth quarter. But the Consumer Price Index rose by 2.6 percent in the same quarter. Almost all of the GDP growth is just rising prices, not a recovering economy.
And half of the new economic activity is just the build-up of inventories. “ More…
Conclusion
Arizona immigration is a bust. US immigration is a bust. Egypt is a bust. Foreign policy is a bust. The economy is a bust. Real estate is in a double dip recession now. Health care is a bust. Employment is a bust. And the Obama presidency is a bust. Whatever has not busted, the economy will bust to pieces by 2012.
For the stragglers who are not quite sure yet wait until gasoline prices reach $5.00 per gallon this summer and energy policy will be a bust. What do you expect when Obama is preventing any oil drilling in the US? Just today another Federal Judge found Obama’s interior department in contempt of its illegal moratorium on oil drilling. Do you think Obama cares? He is thumbing his nose at the American judiciary like a dictator would. Beware the Watergate effect!
The stragglers will then show up with nail and hammer in hand demanding to put their very own spike in the Obama juggernaut’s coffin.
