Obama is War on Women Casualty

The history of women's liberation, from the deception of Eve in the garden by the wicked serpent and the resulting murder of Abel by Cain, to the contemporary omniscience, omnipotence and media-effectuated omnipresence-ability of the current Secretary of State and the murder of the U.S. Ambassador in Benghazi, really indicates that, in spite of all the distracting trappings of modern society, not much has change relative to the consequences of a "woman's right to choose." Don't they wish they had stuck to a personal privacy regarding all the various problematic and intimate issues involving the egg? Why all the politicization? What does it really get them? Attention?
Ah, yes, voter suspension of common sense along with democratic encouragement and use of "legitimate fraud" should do the trick.
From what we know and don't know about the current administration, situation ethics seems to be the experiential guiding light, or "the edge of night," if you prefer, forming the basis of their political strategery. Maybe we are overwhelmed by the implications of the changes in technology with which we are finding it difficult to keep up. As for global warming, isn't it just possible that all the political hot air that is being bantered about is the real cause?
Given his extensive background in community organizing as represented by the model city of Chicago, especially the South Side, he will probably go back there and purchase a home in a nice, safe, quiet area where he can write his memoirs of the greatest presidency of the third millennium or perhaps, in the best interests of the innovation of the Reformed Health Care Act, he will write a psychology textbook, "Delusion and How I Deal With It." Or, perhaps a text on race relations, "Black and White: seeing race through the prism of the rainbow coalition." I am sure the presidency provides plenty of fodder for the unemployed national CEOs to exploit. Putting it in a book is the only way, they have a sense, of being able to control it.
Work makes life sweet. It logically follows that idleness or joblessness makes life bitter. Playing golf may be fun, but it is not work, unless you are really trying for that elusive "hole in one" and it clearly represents a distinction between the life style of the rich and famous and the jobless and unknown. When he is jobless and unknown, I will feel a lot better about America.

Obama Makes Miracles Happen

If the jobs numbers are truthful, it is certainly a convenient and timely truth. We, undoubtedly, are supposed to discern, having access to source information of unquestionable veracity. Maybe it is an example of redistribution. Every body else has everybody else's which is certainly unconfusing, which is evidently not a legitimate word since spellchecker has underlined it in red. Perhaps the correct word is unconfounding. No, spellchecker decided, from its programmed database, that confounding is wrong, too. I suppose the government already knew that but it is good strategy.
It is the failure of practice or practical application which proves the falsehood of philosophy or theory of operation. Being uncertain of the principles of operation, the failure of operation ought to dictate that change is necessary, What they are confused about, like the people who listen to them, is why they insist that the philosophy, ideally, ought to work when, practically, in reality, it has not, does not and will not. There is none so blind as he who WILL not see.

Obama’s God Fails Him Again

It is the hyperbole that is to suffice when they are doing the balancing act of serving two Gods at the same time that must be a cause for either of the Deities to smile in omniscience. Would that their omnipotence were to overrule the impotence of potentates in poverty. Amazingly, there were no attempts at cloud seeding this past summer to prove that liberal man has finally overcome the limitations of Almighty God who, alone apparently, is the only one who can MAKE the rain to fall on the just and the unjust. One wonders why, with a perception of consistency of reward and punishment, the unjust are included in the fall (of the rain, of course). Or, is the redemption of the earth dependent on the repentant and penitent souls of men?

Obama Owns These Oil Prices

He owns a lot of things. The real question is, does he own the freedom to disown them?
The difference is like that of a busy-body and a person with an occupation. The busy-body is usually disdained, whereas the person with the occupation is, to some extent, worth his pay. Therein lies the lesson. On Wall Street, people actually work, they are occupied, busy. Why would any enlightened person protest that idea? Might it be that people who engaged in the Occupy movement were not as enlightened as some first believed. If we consider the history of protest in the U.S.A. over the last 50 years, its costs were greater than its success or accomplished objectives, all of which says something for the continuity of protest. Failure likes to protest. Methinks thou dost.......
The impetus for intelligence and the qualifying factor for the dissemination of intelligence information was, and probably still is, the ubiquitous "need to know." Exactly WHO determines one's "need to know" may depend on the amount of innate intelligence or intellectual curiosity a person has regarding that need. Perhaps the president considers that he does not have the need to know. On the basis of prioritization, it has to be assumed that, if some inferior in the chain of command should determine that he had a particular need to know something, he would get the message.
