OBAMA CHANNELS BUSH USES PHONY CHARGES TO ENTER SYRIAN CIVIL WAR

Majority Doesn't Trust Obama, Approval Rating Suffers Severe Drop As Obama Morphs Into A Clone Of George Bush.

The very first evidence of the recent morphological changes in our first Black President has been in his golf game. The President’s play has altered recently from phlegmatic to frenetic. His game has sped up dramatically. The Presidential “concertina” which normally built up behind Mr. Obama's golf party is gone. Some thought at first it was the “golfing tip” he got from Tiger. But the length of time he takes to complete his weekly 18 Hole “round” has dropped from a stately and “Tigerly” four-plus hours to a speedy Bush-family style two hours. But there are other signs. White House servants report that our man has taken to noisily clomping around in the West Wing wearing Tony Lama hand-tooled cowboy boots, jingling rowel spurs, and a big floppy Stetson. Furthermore, more ominously, one of the White House gardeners reported that the carefully tended grape vines in the First Lady’s grape arbor were mysteriously hacked down to the ground one night. The word is that the President has been secretly “cutting brush” on the White House property under the cover of darkness. The First Lady’s “prevent obesity” garden was apparently on the President's new “brush clearing schedule”. White House officials claim it helps to “relieve tension”. But others fear it is an infection, perhaps a slow-acting virus, left on the old, porous-leather seat, of the Oval Office Presidential chair by the previous occupant. A gene-altering virus may have infected the new guy by this route. No one knows for sure, disease transmission in such rarefied circles is little studied and understood.

But one thing is clear...the POTUS seems to be morphing into a Cleavon Little type character from Mel Brook’s “Blazing Saddles” right before our eyes. In these last few weeks, he has been “off his feed” and the result is that the administration seems blindsided and sidetracked by the several scandals which have hit the White House early in the second term. Obam’ instead of the “smartest guy in the room” is acting more like a dyslexic dunce. Instead of his usual professorial air he has been uncharacteristically silent, instead he has been observed taking a lot of whispered advice from his much more slow-witted VP, Joe Biden. The results are telling---the administration has wavered and wandered into dark political and policy corners. As a consequence the Nation has been uncertain, and tentative. The results are evident in public opinion. The President's approval rating has fallen dramatically.

According to a new CNN poll published by Newsmax Media (newsmax.com) June 17, 2013: “President Barack Obama’s approval rating dropped a shocking 8 percentage points over the last month -- one of sharpest, fastest plunges in his presidency,......" They add: “For the first time in Obama's time in office, more than half of the public doesn’t feel that the president is honest and trustworthy, the CNN/ORC International poll showed.”" See: Newsmax Media newsmax.com June 17, 2013?

But the latest “bushization” of the Obama White House has been his recent foreign policy pronouncements on Syria. He is (I can't believe it) actually replaying the old Bush “weapons of mass destruction” ploy. This time with Syria as the target. How stupid do they think we are? Well it IS TEN years ago that Bush, Cheney, Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice cooked up the "weapons of mass destruction" story to divert and borrow tax dollars to prosecute a terrible war. I guess ten years is ancient history in this political era. So let me remind you. The charge that Saddam Hussein had “WMD" was the causus belli for our disastrous three-trillion-dollar foray into a bloody conflict of "nation deconstruction and building" in Iraq. That war, fought on borrowed funds, also contributed mightily to the Great Recession. Now our President is attempting to repeat a sordid part of our history with unproved claims of Syrian WMD. The so called "evidence", poo poohed by the Germans and Russians as "not substantive" consists of urine and blood samples collected by the CIA from two reputed Syrian fighters. These samples are the analogs of the phony Iraq "rocket tubes" of the Bush era. The physiological samples, of uncertain provenance, were tested in the US and (what else? ) they "proved" positive for sarin gas. But the question of who released the gas, what was the real identity and political association of the victims, and where exactly were the samples obtained--- is still an open question? Others claim the samples were rigged by the Syrian insurgents...a very likely possibility. As Americans paying with blood and money for such intervention should we not all have an opportunity to evaluate the evidence, particularly after the Iraq fiasco? And before Obama slides the nation onto a bloody slippery-slope leading into another war. But the Obama crowd has only offered their conclusions (conclusions rejected by Russia and Germany) with no intention of sharing any "hard evidence" cited.

I know our government thinks we Americans are real stupid, but we ain't that dumb! On this issue Mr Obama has turned the corner and is figuratively pumping the pedals of his mountain bike with his long legs as he heads into west Texas, his Stetson blown back off his head and a oil-painting kit under his arm. He is pouring the concrete which will become the footing for his permanent and official legacy: OBAMA: The Second George Bush".

Good bye Obama! You couldn't be yourself somehow. That Bush virus got you. Too bad. You had such potential. But at least you salvaged something for yourself. You will still make the history books as the first black President with an undeserved Nobel Peace prize! And will also generate records as the first president elected twice by a big majority only to morph (with no reason) into a predecessor from the opposing political party right before the eyes of the nation. Too bad we won't be able to say the Obama presidency and the efforts of all those who elected him put at least a tiny inflection in the erroneous course this nation had charted under the Bush leadership. Sad to say it appears Mr. Obama has turned out to be more of a deck hand than a ship captain. He has moved the deck chairs around a bit on the ship of state, but did not manage to wrest the great spoked steering wheel from the Bush faction. His actions in this Syrian affair prove it.

Get the picture?
