This morning, I was gratified to see that Barack Obama met with General McChrystal for 25 minutes in Copenhagen. Since Obama has stated that the Afghanistan Theater of the war is the most important part, you would think that he would give it a little bit of his time. I can understand that he ignores Iraq and the rest of the war against Islamo-Fascism. He has said that those actions are not important. But, Afghanistan is supposed to be important. When things are important, you give them some of your time.
I think that Barack Obama is not giving time to Afghanistan because he is caught between a rock and a hard place. The radical left is after him to get this Obamacare bill passed. He needs their votes to get it done. The radical left does not believe that we belong in Afghanistan or any place outside of the US, unless it is not in our interest to be there. So, if Obama gives Afghanistan the time it deserves he will tick off the radical left and make it more difficult to pass his Obamacare bill. If he ignores Afghanistan, he might get his Obamacare bill passed, but more of our brave soldiers will die unnecessarily. As a result, he does not really know how to act. He is tending toward not doing anything, which is his default position.
Barack Obama desperately wants this Obamacare bill to pass so he can have a lasting legacy. Obama thinks that people will look to him as some sort of savior for getting the Obamacare bill passed. He does not understand that people will hate Obamacare.
Right now, Barack Obama is in Copenhagen to try and get the Olympics for Chicago. If he manages to pull that off, he will be paying back the people that put him in office. Those people stand to make millions upon millions out of this deal. They all own slum property right where the different Olympic sites will be built and where the Olympic village will be built. That will mean millions in graft money for each of those involved. It will also mean millions in contracts for the different Chicago unions. The regular people of Chicago will not benefit very much from the Olympics, except for the couple of weeks that the events are held. It is the corrupt Chicago government that will benefit. That is all documented very well by Michelle Malkin. When I saw her documentation, I was blown away by the potential corruption that is there if the Olympics are in Chicago.
Barack Obama has brought Chicago style politics to Washington. Chicago style politics is the dirtiest sort of politics. Right does not matter. Only who you know matters. Corruption is rampant among most of the people that surround the White House. Glenn Beck is having a field day documenting all the corruption in and around the White House. He also asks the question that needs to be answered, “How could this person get access to the President?” When we find the answer to that question, we will unlock the door to the secrets in the White House. Of course, in Chicago style politics, if you find out the answer to that question you may not see the dawn.
Electing Barack Obama to the White House was a historic event. Unfortunately for those who voted for him, it was not the historic event they wanted. They were hoping that electing Barack Obama would lead to an end of racial politics. Instead it leads to an increase in racial politics and a dramatic increase in corruption. I am not saying that there was no corruption under George Bush. I am just saying that the corruption is so rampant under Barack Obama that it is impossible to hide for any length of time.
