SIGNIFICANCE OF THE BIRTHERS

The Birthers are emblematic of the deep mistrust many Americans have for the most gutless dissembler, compulsive liar and unAmerican President to ever inhabit the White House. Obama is so radical and unAmerican in his views that many cannot accept that he's a natural born citizen, and will grasp at anything suggesting otherwise. This is perfectly understandable. If the President had kept his pledge to be honest with the American people and was more accepting of our values, traditions, ideals and norms the Birthers would be far fewer in number and totally ignored.

Barack Obama is not an American like us, that is a fact: American in body, unAmerican in mind; an ideological alien; the enemy within; an unpatriotic world citizen disguised as a nationalist. A man deceptively at war with our exceptionalism, individualism and the American Dream. These are reasons enough to oppose him;  reasons enough to make sure that he's not reelected, and that someone like him will never be President again.

OBAMA CARE IS STEALTH CARE

On health care reform Ted Kennedy is Barack Obama naked and unveiled. Kennedy and Obama both want the same thing: a single payer, authoritarian state run system contolling doctors and patients. But when it comes to character, integrity and truth both men part ways: Kennedy with the courage of his beliefs boldly says he wants a single payer system convinced it would be the best thing for America. While Obama, Mr. Transparency, the 21st century Lincoln, the man who swore to always be truthful and never lie, gutlessly and shamelessly hides his beliefs and says he wants to simply add a public option to our system.

ObamaCare is StealthCare: it's the nightmare of a single payer plan wrapped in the smile of a public option lie.

NO WATERLOOS FOR OBAMA

There will be no Waterloos for Barack Obama; no final or decisive defeats deciding the fate of his tragic presidency. Obama will either bleed to death by a thousand cuts, leaving office like LBJ a disillusioned and broken man; or, like Harding and JFK-two senators turned president-Providence will drop the sword and suddenly take him from us before he finishes his term-which would be an act of Divine Mercy if the many predictions of a coming catastrophe materialize.

These two senarios will be explored in my upcoming works: The Rise and Fall of Barack Obama and Barack Obama and the "Curse" of the Kennedys. A preview of the later work can be seen here.

Postscript: Al Gore, Florida and the Waterloo of American Politics

Waterloo is not simply symbolic of a great defeat but of the loser coming close to victory, as Napoleon came close to defeating Wellington. In my opinion, the great Waterloo of American political history was Al Gore losing the 2000 presidential race in Florida to George W. Bush by a hair. Ironically, Gore's last campaign stop was Tampa, Florida which was preceded by a rally at Waterloo, Iowa. After his stop at Tampa, in the state where he would meet his Waterloo, Gore returned home to Carthage, Mississippi. Carthage is a town named after the ancient North African city state that came close to defeating Rome in the Second Punic War under the leadership of Hannibal. From Waterloo to Tampa and then on to Catharge the signs were badly aligned for an Al Gore victory.

WATERING DOWN THE BILL

While Pelosi and the Libs are busy in the House watering down the health care bill to make it acceptable to Blue Dog Dems, I have a splendid idea for them: Shape the bill into the image of a johnny pump and let the Blue Dogs relieve themselves.

BARACK OBAMA AND THE END OF WHITE LIBERAL GUILT

As Obama deftly played the race card to get elected president, fully exploiting and taking advantage of that sentimental disorder called "white liberal guilt," the catastrophe of his presidency will do the trick of curing us of this folly. After Obama the next black president will have won office because of his experience, knowledge and character and not because of a media created image that exaggerates his virtues and hides his faults to fool the public.

Postscript: The Ultimate Expiation of White Liberal Guilt

When Evan Thomas of Newsweek gushed to Chris Matthews that "Obama was a god elevated above the world" this was an outlandish expression of white liberal guilt carried into the realm of liberal political theology where deifying Obama becomes the ultimate catharsis and expiation for past transgressions and racial sins.

It appears that equalizing blacks and whites is no longer satisfying for liberals as this has gone on for sometime with stunning results-with Obama's presidency as the crowning achievement. Now guilt ridden liberals have to deify a black man and worship him as superior to themselves and all creation to feel atonement, absolution and peace. It has gotten that absurd, pathetic and extreme.

As liberals have placed the salvation of themselves and their bankrupt creed in Obama's inept and bumbling hands his failure will be their undoing and fall. After four tragic years of Barack Obama the age of liberalism will be over; it will be finished with and done; and a new and glorious chapter in our country's heroic history will begin.

RACIAL HEALER IN CHIEF (NEW POSTSCRIPT)

Barack Obama, the first racist president since Democrat law professor Woodrow Wilson*, used the Gates Affair as an opportunity to shame white America over its alleged ingrained, incurable racism toward black Americans; and to give credibility to Eric Holder's perverse view that when it comes to "things racial" we are "essentially a nation of (moral) cowards."

*Wilson was Dean of Princeton University where Michelle Obama earned a degree in sociology.

Now that America knows the truth about the Gates Affair: that race had nothing to do with Gates' arrest, this president who used race as an election strategy; who said that he "loved" Luiz Lula da Silva (Brazil's racist demagogue president*); who sat in an Afro-centric church for twenty years lovingly listening to the toxic rants of a bitter racist loon; this president has now made himself look like the rash, blundering, race baiting fool that he truly is.

The president who was supposed to make a huge spiritual difference in our lives setting an example of moral excellence for all the world; who was to "bring out the better angels of our nature," and be our racial uniter and healer-in-chief, is in reality a cheap political exploitor of racial resentments and tensions; a morally petty and smallminded man who shrinks in size with the passage of time; a profile in racial bigotry and moral cowardice who makes me ashamed that he's my president and leader of the Free World.

* Da Silver made the shocking claim that "White blue eyed devils were the cause of the global financial crash."

Postscript: Reconciliation? 

After lying his way through a press conference on health care reform our mental and moral mess of a president embarrassed himself by playing the race card in a non-racial law enforcement matter. Then two days latter he covers his arse by inviting Gates and Crowley to a pow wow at the White House to make love not war. But it was too late. Reconciliation was an afterthought when Obama's foray into race baiting backfired. The White House beer fest will change nothing for Obama and Gates. When the meeting is over they will remain racist bigots seeing White America as incurably, irredeemably anti-black.

STRAY THOUGHTS ON BARACK OBAMA

Those who are saying that "Barack Obama is choreographing a top down revolution in America" are right. Fortunately for our country Obama is no Jerome Robbins.

"The Recession is Over!" declares Newsweek Magazine. Didn't the New Dealers make the same prognostication about the Great Depression in 1936? That the crisis was over and that it was full steam ahead to economic recovery? Unfortunately, the new New Dealers are repeating the mistakes of their predecessors. With rising deficit spending, punishing taxation, Card Check and raising the minimum wage* during an economic crisis the ignoramuses running Washington are steaming ahead toward the very depression they are claiming to have stopped.

*The Wagner Act on unionizing and minimum wage were passed during the Depression.

With Barack Obama as President Osama bin Ladin can take a vacation from planning the destruction of our economy. Obama is 9/11 without hijacked airplanes and suicide bombers hitting all 50 states at once.
 
Obama is right about America's central role in the coming Global Warming apocalypse: we are the world's deadliest and most unconscionable emitters of greenhouse plant food in history.

Obamanomics, Cap and Trade and Obamacare are Rx for the "disease" of American Capitalism, exceptionalism and world hegemony (see my upcoming: Barack Obama: the Post-Nation State Presidency and the End of American Exceptionalism).

The Gates affair tells us that Barack Obama is the first racist President to sit in the White House in 88 years: since the liberal fascist law professor from New Jersey, Woodrow Wilson.

Deposed Honduran wannabe dictator Manuel Zelaya is coming to Washington this week to land a job with the Obama administration as Czar of Latin American Affairs. Or will he be given the ambassadorship to Honduras? That would be an ingenious way to get him back into his country.

IS OBAMA A GREAT COMMUNICATOR?

In his mind Obama believes that he's a great communicator, a very great communicator; a rhetorical genius equal to or greater than Ronald Reagan. But reality says differently. Reality says that Obama is a midget compared to Reagan-a pint-sized orator whose rhetorical skills are overblown by a flattering press and delusional followers. In reality there is no great communicator in Obama. In reality Barack Obama is the GREAT TELEPROMPTICATOR.

OBAMA'S PLAN FOR HEALTH CARE DEPRESSION (REVISED WITH A NEW APPENDIX)

According to CBO estimates Obamacare is financially and economically unsustainable and will lead to the complete breakdown, bankruptcy and collapse of our medical health care system. As the principle causes of skyrocketing costs (medical lawsuits and 12 million illegal aliens), continue under Obamacare CBO warnings are aligned with the stars of reality and reason and show us how thoughtless, reckless and dangerous Obama is.

Indeed, when asked how many of the 45 million uninsured will be covered by his plan Obama said “all will be covered.” When asked what kind of pain and sacrifice beneficiaries would have to make in benefits and services (as happened in Canada and Europe), Obama said “there would be none.” In other words, there’s no downside to Obamacare. It’s all upside, no downside. In Obama’s unhinged, utopian, see-no-evil mind, his reformation of the system will bring medical sweetness and light; where everyone’s covered, everyone wins, where everyone will be better off in complete medical security living longer, happier, healthier lives. The current system sucks and is going to hell in a nightmare of national suffering and pain and Obama is offering salvation in a new state run health care nirvana, offering a system that’s so new, beneficial and 21st century unique that it can only be compared to itself. Full coverage for all without sacrifice, pain or distress. What Mussolini did for Italy’s train system Obama will do for US health care. Everything will run like a dream. Who with a heart could oppose such a thing. Who but a fool would dissent.

Obama has the perfect plan to cover every child and man; from cradle to grave he will care for us all until disease and sickness are no more.

Should we expect anything less from the supreme avatar of empathy and light? From this new god-like man who has transcended political time and space and is the forerunner of a divinely enlightened race of super-compassionate beings? Should we expect anything less? In the 1930s Americans traveled to Stalinist Russia to see the promised future. But today we needn’t go that far for he is here right now in our own backyard: the Red Menace with an unthreatening demeanor and charming smile.

It's the audacity of hope gone plum insane. Health care heaven only exists in Obama's infantile, Michael Jackson-like Neverland brain. If his plan is passed and signed into law and it brings cruel sacrifices, suffering and pain what then will Obama say? How will he answer the heartaches, tears and bitter complaints?

‘This system is better than having none at all; if nothing was done you’d all be in the morgue.’

Obama doesn’t want to reform our health care system, he wants to gut it; he doesn’t want to improve the system but radically remake it. “America needs to be remade,” cried Obama in his nomination speech, and he meant every word of it. When he calls for “foundational, fundamental, transformational change” he means everywhere in our national life: the economy, foreign policy, energy, education and in health care. America as it is, is completely unacceptable to Obama. “Patriotism is never being satisfied with one’s country*,” until it’s achieved perfection in everything.

*Famously said by the American Communist Paul Robson.

Obama’s not a reformer but a revolutionary destroyer driven by a single mad radical idea of egalitarian justice, fairness and perfection, a delusional belief in the equality of income, outcome and condition; a reckless faith in the impossible dream of heaven on earth that wrecks economic and social havoc wherever and whenever it’s been tried; the dream that turns an imperfect world into a nightmare more imperfect still; that turned the 20th century into an ocean of blood, death and despair for millions of victims: Russia, China, Vietnam, North Korea, Cuba, Iraq, East Germany, Poland and the list of miserable, brutalized, tortured oppressed socialized peoples goes on and on. And now that list will include in some measure the United States of America as a fatally flawed and foolish President headed for a tragic end leads us into peril.

The stars are aligned, as Obama says, not for good but for evil. Not for medical hope and health care heaven, but for medical disaster and health care depression.


APPENDIX l: HEALTH CARE PERFECTION=HEALTH CARE TYRANNY

Jake Tapper of ABC News asked Obama at the press conference:

When you describe health care reform, you don't -- understandably, you don't talk about the sacrifices that Americans might have to make. Do you think -- do you accept the premise that other than some tax increases on the wealthiest Americans, the American people are going to have to give anything up in order for this to happen?

OBAMA: They're going to have to give up paying for things that don't make them healthier. And I -- speaking as an American, I think that's the kind of change you want.

Of all the incoherent and senseless things Obama said at the press conference this perhaps was the most puzzling. What could it mean? That under Obamacare the medical consumer or patient will only pay for things that will make him or her healthier? In other words, we will always get the right doctor, the right medical procedure, the right prescriptions, medications and operations to cure us of sickness and disease and restore health? In other words, (as I said above) what Mussolini did for Italy’s public transit system Obama will do for US health care. Everything will run efficiently and effectively like clockwork achieving an unseen, unheard of, unthinkbable medical perfection. Is that what Obama means? I believe so. I believe that this gaffe revealed Obama’s pathological hatred for the current system; that it revealed his hidden agenda to gut and overthrow the health care status quo sacrificing the good, the bad and the ugly on the alter of medical and health care perfection: a fully nationalized single payer government run tyrannical system; a delusional ideal perfection that can never touch the real world of medicine and would only make things terribly worse turning a system that works for most Americans into one that will fail miserably for many millions.


APPENDIX ll: CHIPPING AWAY AT OUR FREEDOMS

Chip Reid asked the President in yesterday‘s press conference:

“On Medicare, there are obviously millions of Americans who depend on Medicare. And when you talk about bending the long-term costs downward or when you talk about cuts in the current proposal on Capitol Hill, you talk about cuts in Medicare and they talk about cuts in Medicare, but there are never many specifics.

Specifically, what kind of pain, what kind of sacrifice are you calling on beneficiaries to make? And even if not right away, aren't future beneficiaries going to be getting less generous benefits than today's?”

OBAMA: “No. No.”

There isn’t an honest bone in this man’s body. And the reason why he’s able to lie so persistently and live with himself is because he believes that he’s lying for justice, lying for the good, lying for truth. With a brave new world of social and economic justice at stake the end overwhelmingly justifies and excuses any means for getting there; even if it means bringing hardship and misery to millions of Americans as he is doing now with his insane, ill conceived economic experiments and follies. In my next piece: Barack Obama and the Post-Nation State Presidency I will explain the overarching reason for Obama’s domestic and foreign policy agenda, and why his presidency is inescapably doomed to fail.

OBAMA, HEAL THYSELF!

Before Obama attempts to cure the problems plaguing our health care system shouldn't he first cure himself of his staggering ignorance, blind stupidity and ideological imbecilities? OBAMA, HEAL THYSELF! Hire the best physician in the land to remove the left side of your brain.

BORDERPOROSIS

As usual Michelle Malkin is right*: Obamacare would only worsen the disease of illegal aliens
pouring into this country; the disease at our leaking, porous southern borders; the disease which is contributing mightily to soaring health care costs and bankrupting the system; the fatal, mortal, deadly disease which I call BORDERPOROSIS.

VIETNAM, IRAQ THE MIDDLE EAST AND THE DEATHS OF CRONKITE AND MCNAMARA

Walter Cronkite and Robert McNamara were major factors in our humiliating defeat in Vietnam, the only war America lost. As JFK’s and Lyndon Johnson’s very powerful but blundering Secretary of Defense McNamara was the key architect for losing the Vietnam War to our Communist enemies. And as the country’s leading network anchorman, the most trusted man in American liberal politics, Walter Cronkite’s opposition to the war and pessimistic reports from Vietnam were key to fanning the flames of the anti-war movement and turning millions of Americans against LBJ's wartime leadership. Indeed, to this day Walter Cronkite is honored in Vietnam with pictures hanging in the Vietnam War Museum; honored as the man who renewed the hope and spirit of the Communist enemy at a desperate hour when the NVA* and Vietcong were down on their knees and faced with defeat due to the  failed and disastrous Tet Offensive**.

*North Vietnam Army

**The North failed to achieve any of its military objectives in the offensive but scored a huge propaganda and psychological victory due largely to Cronkite and the demoralizing reporting and the “make love not war” peace movement.

Indeed, the so-called “Cronkite Moment” on the Tet Offensive when defeat was snatched from the jaws of victory-when Cronkite, overcome by the carnage of the brutal offensive, declared that Tet was proof “that the war was unwinnable”-is regarded as the turning point of the war-the moment when Johnson lost Middle America, when American resolve to win was shattered, and a broken LBJ decided to withdraw from the 68 presidential race.

Cronkite and McNamara both born in 1916* and dying 11 days apart at age 93 (with Cronkite celebrating his 93rd birthday on November 4th, Barack Obama’s election day**) is, I believe, a terrible sign warning that a new Vietnam is on the horizon for America; it is a sign that the Middle East is likely to suffer the fate of South East Asia*** when American forces pulled out of Vietnam and left chaos behind. It’s likely to be ominous of things to come once US troops withdraw from Iraq and the region leaving a void for our enemies to fill-setting the stage for a holocaust likely to exceed in its carnage the Iran-Iraq War and the Cambodian killing fields****. With a radical leftist at war with America’s power and greatness in the White House all catastrophes are possible.

*McNamara was born June 16, 1916; Cronkite was born November 4, 1916.

**Keep in mind that Obama was elected on the 29th anniversary of the Iranian Hostage Crisis when pro-Khomeini student radicals seized the US embassy in Tehran and held our diplomats for 444 humiliating days. His election on that day is a sign of coming humiliation for America in the Middle East.

***As McNamara served LBJ the Texan President who started the ground war in Vietnam, he ironically died on July 6th the 62nd birthday of George Bush the Texan President who ordered the ground invasion of Iraq. This gives us one of many Iraq/Vietnam pairings-the Kerry campiagn being the first-signaling that Iraq is likely to be our next Vietnam.
 
****In August of 2007 Ahmadenijad warned that “when US forces leave Iraq and the Middle East Iran and its regional friends will fill the vacuum.

OBSERVATIONS AND COMMENTS ON OBAMA’S TELEPROMPTER DISASTER (WITH NEW POSTSCRIPT)

Just one day before the 220th anniversary of the French Revolution, the first of many failed egalitarian revolutions, President Obama as he was defending his stimulus plan at the Urban and Metropolitan Policy Roundtable had the teleprompter screen to the LEFT of his podium come crashing down in front of him smashing to pieces on the floor. Ominously, as a sign of where the economy is headed under his foolish, blind and misguided leadership, the fatal crash occurred precisely at the moment when Obama uttered the significant word “economy.”

This is what happened:

After saying that “four in five cities across the country had to cut services because of the recession,” Obama then said: “And that's one reason why we took swift and aggressive action in the first months of my administration to pull our economy -- (Teleprompter screen crashes) -- oh, goodness, sorry about that, guys -- (laughter) -- to pull our economy back from the brink, including the largest and most sweeping economic recovery plan in our nation's history.” Pulling our economy back from the brink? What he meant was shattering our economy, breaking it to pieces, pushing it off a cliff into a depression (see Obama's Teleprompter Crashes During Speech (VIDEO)).

The speech was given at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, a grotesque looking structure-in the style of French Second Empire architecture-called by President Truman: “the greatest monstrosity in America.” The speech was given yesterday July 13th numerically corresponding to the 13th day of February when Obama’s monstrous $800 billion stimulus bill-appropriately called the Friday the 13th Horror Bill-passed the Senate (see THE FRIDAY THE 13TH HORROR BILL ).

47 days before yesterday's teleprompter tragedy-a number corresponding to Obama’s age-Joe Biden while addressing graduates of the US Air Force Academy had his teleprompter crash to the ground*. He joked “What am I going to tell the president that his teleprompter is broken?” A gush of wind knocked over Biden’s teleprompter; there was no apparent cause for Obama’s teleprompter crash. When the teleprompter fell Biden was talking about American strategic interests which the administration is shattering like the economy. Also see my BARACK OBAMA'S STRASBOURG SPEECH .

*Biden gave his speech on May 27th.
 
POSTSCRIPT: "EQUALITY" "ECONOMY" WORDS OF WARNING, WORDS OF DOOM
 
On April 3rd during his speech at Strasboug, France Obama's teleprompter malfunctioned when he came to the word "equality." Now 14 weeks later in Washington DC Obama's teleprompter screen crashes to the ground shattering in pieces just as he comes to the word "economy." "Equality" "economy" put these words together and we get the cause of Obama's failing policies. It's a warning that Obama's egalitarian politics is having a shattering effect on the economy.

BARACK OBAMA: HERBERT HOOVER REBORN

In my piece Barack Obama: The Great Depressor I wrote that the profoundly confused and ill-starred man who is aspiring to be the New FDR, one of the worst economic illiterates in American presidential history (a model to be shunned), is slowly transforming himself into the next Herbert Hoover as his ill conceived war on free market capitalism, individual liberty and prosperity is turning a recession, that may have been over by now, into the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.

I wrote, and repeated from previous pieces written in February, that Obama and his party were ominously warned by unmistakable signs not to take the path of government activism, or Hoover/New Deal liberalism, in trying to fix and revive the economy. I noted that the Democratic leadership in Congress, Pelosi, Reid and Hoyer, were born during the Great Depression; that Obama’s kingmaker Ted Kennedy, his MC at the inaugural Dianne Feinstein and Republican turned Democrat Arlen Spector (who voted for the failed stimulus bill), were all born during the Depression. I also noted that Roland Burris and Ted Kauffman, who replaced Obama and Biden in the Senate, were also Depressopn born, and that Burris in particular was born in 1937 the ominous year that the bottom fell out of the New Deal with the stock market crashing and the economy losing millions of jobs (see ).

However, other signs materialized that the Hoover/FDR path to fixing the recession was the wrong way to go and would only worsen what was bad. On September 15th (Bloody Monday) the bankruptcy and crash of Lehman Brothers, which triggered the worldwide financial meltdown, was another such sign. What was the nexus between the Lehman crash and the Great Depression? Herbert Henry Lehman, the most politically prominent member of the Lehman family. For Herbert Lehman, son of one of Lehman’s founders, was the close personal friend and economic advisor of FDR and his successor as governor of New York.

Moreover, on September 17th, two days after Lehman crashed, President Bush met with economic advisors for an emergency meeting in the White House to discuss the growing financial meltdown. Ominously of the many White House rooms that could have been used for this meeting they met, of all places, in the Roosevelt Room (named after Teddy and Franklin). Ironically, it was there that Henry Paulson, Bush’s Treasury Secretary, warned of an economic debacle worst than the Great Depression if the government didn’t quickly intervene to rescue the U.S. banking system*. Since then the government has massively intervened in the economy bailing out banks, corporations anf financial institutions to a degree of recklessness and insobriety that would have shocked FDR and the New Dealers. And now with billions spent, a mountain of debt and the nationalizing of healthcare and massive tax hikes on the way we are headed toward disaster with Obama on course to go down in history as Herbert Hoover reborn.

*Oddly, Henry Paulson and Herbert Henry Lehman share the same birthday; both men were born March 28, in 1946 and 1878 respectively.

In The Great Depressor I noted several intriguing parallels linking Obama and Hoover; but I have since discovered others which are no less intriguing suggesting that Obama was fated for the destructive role he's now playing. These parallels are as follows:

> Obama and Hoover were the only presidents born in August to follow July born presidents into office (Bush and Coolidge were born in July)*.

*Hoover was born August 10, 1874; Obama August 4, 1961; Coolidge July 4, 1872; Bush July 6, 1946.

>Obama and Hoover are the only presidents sworn into office by a Chief Justice that botched the presidential oath. Chief Justice Taft used the word “maintain” instead of “protect” when swearing in Hoover. Obama stumbled on the word “faithfully“ which was misplaced by Chief Justice Roberts in the word order (see).

>As Hoover became President in the 29th year of the 20th century Obama was sworn into office in 2009, the number 29 separated by two zeros*.

*Hoover was sworn in as President on Match 4, 1929.

Moreover, just as 2009 (29 separated by two zeros) was the year when Obama made history and achieved his life’s destiny so does the date of his birth, when we add up its numbers as single digits, give us the number 29, hence:

Obama was born 8-04-1961 which translates into 8+4+1+9+6+1=29

Even more interesting is the fact that Michelle Obama, who was born in the year of Herbert Hoover’s death*, also has a birth number of 29, hence:

Michelle Obama was born 1-17-1964 which translates into 1+1+7+1+9+6+4=29.

Now while the number 29 is a numeric symbol of the Great Depression and Hoover‘s first year in office-nearly all economists date the Depression from the stock market crash of 1929-29 is also the day in August when John McCain was born, the second of two presidential candidates of a major party born in the Depression*.

* McCain was born in 1936. The first presidential candidate born in the Depression was the Democrat Mike Dukakis born November 3, 1933.

And lastly, as Obama is haplessly turning himself into the new Herbert Hoover it is fascinating to note that Hoover died 47 weeks into the Johnson administration 44 years before the 47 year old Obama was sworn in as 44th President*.

*November 22, 1963 (start of Johnson’s presidency) to October 20, 1964 (Hoover’s death)=333 days or 47 weeks.

October 20, 1964 to January 20, 2009=44years, 3 months and 0 days.

As Hooverism means higher taxes, deficit spending and more government regulation to fix a recession the measures taken by the 31st president turned out to be depressionary worsening what was bad into a catastrophe-unnecessarily prolonged by FDR’s New Deal*. That is the truth; that is what happened; and now it is happening again with a President and Congress blindly driving the country into the economic abyss.
 
*Hoovernomics was the New Deal in embryo said Harry Hopkins, an FDR advisor.
 
APPENDIX: OBAMANOMICS: A SELF-FULFILLING PROPHECY
 
It is simply incredible that the man who campaigned on the false premise that the Bush recession was "the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression," when it was hardly as bad as the stagflation-malaise economy of Jimmy Carter, should now be enacting policies that are depression bound. Obamanomics is becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

SARAH PALIN: CONVICTION POLITICIAN AND TRUE AMERICAN WOMAN (SLIGHTLY REVISED WITH A NEW POSTSCRIPT)

Let's dispense with all the mystification and speculation over Sarah Palin's sudden resignation. Take the woman at her word: the unhinged, hate driven anti-Palin left have made it impossible for her to effectively govern and serve her state. Sarah Palin, God bless her, is a completely frank, open, transparent woman. There isn't a dishonest bone in her hard working conservative body. Free from deceit with nothing to hide she wears no mask or guise. What you see is what she is; what she is, is what you see. She's an unblemished jewel naked through and through.

Palin is faithful and true, an uncommonly common woman, a conviction politician who stands on principle from the old honest Abe Lincoln school of Republican politics; in fact, there's more of Abe Lincoln in her smallest toe than in a thousand Barack Obamas-whose lies are as long as his legs and integrity no larger than his shoe size.

Who among Palin's vicious critics can equal her in character, courage and worth? Maureen Dowd? David Letterman? Olbermann, Matthews? The NBC/CBS/ABC crowd? Palin puts her liberal enemies to shame; she's spiritually bigger than all of them combined and makes them look like moral pigmys. When Palin joined the McCain campaign it became even more of a Straight Talk Express winning him millions of votes. We can trust that her explanation for resigning from office is authoritative, the final word, the only one that counts. 

Palin will live to see the collapse of the secular left, those who sought her destruction for her heartfelt beliefs in God, country and family. God fearing patriots everywhere will hold her in high esteem and keep her in their hearts because she is a true American woman.

Appendix: On the I64th Day

Sarah Palin announced her resignation as Alaska’s governor 164 days into the Obama Administration*. 164 is the 64th number in the one hundred series, a number that has meaning for Palin in that it signifies the year 1964, the politically relevant and meaningful year of her birth. For this was the year that Arizona senator Barry Goldwater, John McCain’s predecessor, was defeated by Lyndon Johnson and Republicans were trounced in Congressional races. As this happened 44 years before the 2008 election-the number of the presidency McCain was seeking-Goldwater's defeat prophetically prefigured McCain’s*. 

*In my upcoming blogbook: "The Rise and Fall of Barack Obama: The Coming Collapse of the Progressive Left and the Resurgence of the Reagan Republican Right" I will attempt to unravel the mystery of John McCain's candidacy and show him to be the most significant failed presidential candidate in US history.

Amazingly, however, the number 164 is a factor of the number 1968**. This was the year of massive anti-war protests, political assassinations and civic unrest; the year that a morally defeated and exhausted LBJ refused to run for reelection-perhaps ominously anticipating a failed one term presidency for Obama with massive opposition and civil turmoil over his disastrous economic and foreign policy blunders.
 
*January 20th (Obama’s inaugural) to July 3rd (Palin’s announcement)=164 days.
 
**164x12=1968

Postscript: The Numbers 68 and 44

As the numbers 68 and 44 could be used as numeric symbols to denote the year 1968 and the number of Obama's presidency it is interesting to note the following regarding the day Sarah Palin announced her resignation: on that day Palin (b. February 11, 1964) was 45 years, 4 months and 23 days old. This translates into 544 months or 16,579 days of calendar time. 544 is the 44th number of the 500 series and 16,579 days=2368 weeks, or the 68th number of the 2300 series. Could this indicate that 2012 the last year of 44s first term will be explosive like 1968? A new "Days of Rage" with blood in the streets coming from the Right? As I wrote in Barack Obama: The Michael Jackson of American Politics: "44 years separate 1968 from 2012." In my upcomng blogbook "The Rise and Fall of Barack Obama" I will show that in a complex sense the 60s are back, and that in a way the ghost of LBJ is haunting this ill-starred 60s born president.
