Washington Post now fearful of Obama


David Broder is the first liberal main stream media type to recognize the danger that Obama presents to the well being of our citizens and the entire financial system. What is most significant is that this reporter is the dean of the liberal Washington Post press corp. Hopefully, others will awaken to the danger also. The media "made" this man and it would be ironic if they "unmade" him.

David Broder, the "Dean" of liberal pundits presiding at the Washington Post itself, has caught on. Mr. Broder has the shakes over Obama's O-dacity. Good news! Here's one liberal who is in touch with reality, and he's scared out of his wits.


Writes Mr. Broder, "The size of the gamble that President Obama is taking every day is simply staggering. What came through in his speech.... Tuesday night was a dramatic reminder of the unbelievable stakes he has placed on the table in his first month in office, putting at risk the future well-being of the country and the Democratic Party's control of Washington. I've come to believe that the Obama crowd is naive to the point of stupidity. They are very intelligent, mind you. They have more academic degrees than the faculty of Harvard. But intelligent people are often deeply naive, which makes them idiot savants.

(There's a reason why that's a French term --- Moliere wrote a comedy about it four centuries ago.) These people have never accomplished anything but suckering the voters --- and each other. Their policy genius, David Axelrod, is a PR agent. That helped with the campaign, but it means nothing for good government. They seem to have no concept of the economy. They want to impose a cap-and-trade system on "carbon emissions," like oil and coal. That comes down to making Monopoly money and forcing energy-using corporations to pay for it. They have no concept of productive investment compared to a wild spending spree on feel-good ideas, or on kickbacks to their buddies in Chicago.


After all the "community organizer" hoo-hah they still learned nothing from the welfare fiasco that was inflicted on Black families by LBJ's War on Poverty, and which ended up hurting them more than anything Bull Connor could have done --- by way of family breakdown, helpless dependency, drugs, and gang warfare. They've just abolished Bill Clinton's version of welfare reform, which was forced upon him by the Gingrich Congress, and which has ended up really helping people, not hurting them. Conclusion: These folks are arrogant and ignorant.

Intelligent, yes, articulate, yes, and utterly persuasive to millions of suckers, yes. But reality has a harsh way with fools.

David Broder is now spotting the looming steam locomotive chugging his way, and he is seeing a grave danger to "the Democratic Party's control of Washington.
"
Too bad for the Democratic Party. But what worries me very much is that Obama is "putting at risk the future well-being of the country," as Broder writes. That means you and me and all the things we care about.

And Obama is much too arrogant to change his mind. Watch for a bad train wreck down the road soon.
