A Different Take By Brian Wilson

From the Internet to the blog-o-sphere to E-zines to TV and radio chat shows, there is no shortage of opinions criticizing, ridiculing, psychoanalyzing our Fearless Leader. While taking different routes of reason, within acceptable boundaries one could conclude all of them accurate inasmuch as they share synonymous conclusions: Obama is a stumbling, bumbling fool, in over his head but with such a colossal ego or other psychologically dysfunctional handicaps is unable or unwilling to see the folly of his ways, much less accept the disastrous reality that he has created. To virtually all the pundits, the Embarrassed on the Left and the Giddy on the right, the upcoming midterm elections will be the left cross to the right uppercut in 2016 that does away with every socialist program, and its stench, that has engulfed and threatened the very existence of America.

In a recent article, some learned friends of mine tracked the significant events of the Obama administration - from the so-called "stimulus" in 2009 to the most recent scandal cum embarrassment, the instantly infamous "Saving Private Bergdahl" (MAD Magazine) and the 5-for-1 "Wow! What-A-Deal!" deal. With each individual event, my friends concluded "Every act, every initiative, every landmark development is the same. They all have enormous production value. They all carry massive price tags. And they all fall flat, to say the very least. Everything is for show. Nothing of substance is accomplished. Yet everything comes at a steep, steep cost." Who could successfully argue the point? For that matter, who could successfully argue against any of the boat load of opinion pieces that condemn the President for acting like a king -only in this case, the King of Hubris?

Well…I can.

What if they are all wrong? What if we are the ones suffering with hubris? What if we are the fulfillment of Pogos observation: "We have met the enemy - and it is us."?

In some recent correspondence, I raised this question: What if all that we are witnessing, discussing, condemning is, in fact, the sum total of the Obama 3 Ring Circus? In fact, to P. T. Barnums famous "there is a sucker born every minute" line, why is it not possible - even probable - Obama & Company are playing us for the "Sucker" role?

Think about it!!

While certainly fitting the diagnosis of blowhard, narcissist, incompetent, sociopath… Could not the reality just as easily be: "No, Sucker, you got the part foolishly thinking we were just out of our league? The fact is this has been the game plan all along. You remember Alinsky, Cloward, Piven et al? Did I not tell you we were going to "fundamentally change America"? Did I not tell you my plan to shut down the coal biz and raise your utility bill? Do you not remember "you can keep your doctor, health care plan. Period."? Transparent? Hell, I have been telegraphing every one of my punches since my first stump speech .The ones that did not land? OK- a little embarrassing - but, hey - I just shrugged it off, said SQUIRREL! and my friends in the press did the rest - along with your own ADD, of course"

So why is that not the plan? Not part of the "popular narrative"? Contradicts the All-American Rule of Law Paradigm? For someone who routinely complains about a recalcitrant Congress and then rips off a few executive orders circumventing it, why would a reasonably objective analysis not lead to the conclusion this guy has a lot more unpleasant surprises up his sleeve? After all, who is going to stop him? Congress does not have the necessary body parts or legal apparatus to effectively move against him. Even if they did, any substantive legal action would have to be taken by Attorney General Eric "Waco Whitewash" Holder. When you consider Klapper, Sebelius, Lerner, Clinton and the rest of the Obama outlaws flipping off Congressional subpoenas and Contempt Charges, roaming the streets with impunity, would you face palm yourself bloody in surprise if the AG was just "too busy to get around to it"? Even if Boehner-Pelosi-Reid-McConnel allowed the Congressional process to move accordingly? Well? Anyone? Buehler?

Between the Bushs Patriot Act to the NDAA and now Holders just announced "war" on "domestic terrorists" via The Domestic Terrorism Executive Committee, what Congressional committee, law, rule, regulation or any legal plumbing would prevent Obama from declaring Martial Law at the drop of an ASP Baton? Black swan event? Acid indigestion? By using this Administrations patented "Ignore Button", all the lousy ratings in all the public opinion polls have not adjusted his course one wit. So "public opinion" is a big nonstarter. Petitions? Face Book pages? Letters to Congressman-Senators-Editorial Boards? All as deadly and effective as a water balloon on an elephant hunt.

With everyone unilaterally tossing in the towel by chalking the demise of America to a former "community organizer" with a lousy personality, psychological dysfunction and superior incompetence, I think there is ample proof for a contrary and, yes, accurate conclusion. People are indeed connecting the dots but the picture that is coming into their focus is that of Alfred E Newman.

I am seeing Dorian Gray.

Brian Wilson, nationally ignored talk show host and occasional LRC un-indicted co-contributor, is currently taking a break from his daily annoyance of miniscule audiences and concentrating his efforts on the Libertas Media Project, a multi-media Internet news distribution and discussion center from his technically challenged studios on the shores of Smith Mountan Lake, Virginia.
