Hypocrite: One who affects virtues or qualities one does not have.
This Copenhagen pilgrimage has truly taken the practice of arrogance and elitist smuggery to new heights. Michelle, “Our Belle” publicizes on the Whitehouse website that “as much of a sacrifice as people say this is for me (our Belle) or Oprah (real swell) or the president (Oh, Hell) to come for these few days…” rationalizing all their suffering is ultimately for the good of the children of Chicago. Please, may I have a list of the “people” accusing Michelle of sacrificing? While children in Chicago are beaten to death in the streets, the Obamas do the real sacrificing on their behalf? I guess a beer summit wouldn’t work with rival gangs. Bringing the Olympics to the ghettos of Chicago obviously is the next best thing. The muck doesn’t get much deeper than that.
Hypocritical acts attached to this venture are endless. The mere appearance of the Commander in Chief jet-setting to Copenhagen simultaneously to soldiers coming home in body bags from Afghanistan (the appropriate war) while his general, McCrystal, waits and waits and waits on an answer to a request over a month old is nothing short of criminal neglect. This ineptitude piled on to the arrogance of his wife, a woman who has benefited all her adult life from the sacrifice of other Americans for her ivy-league education, the education she used to flunk the Bar the first time, only to eventually pass and practice law for all of a nanosecond opting instead to ride her husband’s political coat tails along the corrupt avenues of Chicago. Fancy.
If anyone thinks this bid for the Olympics isn’t one ginormous payback to the Chi-town machine that delivered the Obamas to their throne, you are one naïve head bobber. The numbers are still being calculated but Valerie Jarrett, Chicago slum lord and presidential influence peddler second only to Rahm “the Fish head” Emmanuel, stands to make a staggering fortune off of the vast ghetto wastelands she will have leveled by taxpayers and developed by taxpayers to then make a pretty penny off the Olympic boondoggle.
Never mind that her personal holdings put her in a conflict of interest with her position in the Administration and the team lobbying for Chicago’s Olympic bid. Val has been given an official “Wave of Ethics”. Only in the world of Chicago politics would ETHICS be given a WAVE in order to “get ‘er done”. No wonder it’s the Windy City, with all those hands waving ethics night and day. The nifty thing is, even though Chicago (and probably the country) will lose money on the Olympics, Valerie will get insanely rich and not have to pay a dime especially if she listens to Charlie Rangel.
The number of Chicago hands in line for the profits are many, Daley, Axelrod, Emmanuel, and a slew of others have their chits thrown in the hat. And when tax dollars are concerned, the accounting becomes like a magic act. The money goes into the hat, Obama waves his magic wand, presto, taxpayers look in the hat, money gone. Obama flashes his signature smile as he rolls his black hat up his arm and back on his fuzzy little head. All for the good of the kids of Chicago. Don’t forget that point!
So let’s play a game. Let’s say Belle and Hell don’t have any personal ties to Chi-town, they honestly just want the games to come to the U.S. so we can celebrate our athletes and play host to the world. Great but did the presidential couple HAVE to go on separate planes? The cost in taxpayer funds and carbon dollars those dual presidential planes ran American taxpayers and the planet (cough-cough) are staggering. And just think of the carbon emissions that will be generated in Chi-town while building all the stuff for the Olympics? If Michelle and HubbO keep sacrificing at this rate, none of us will be able to breathe a breath of clean air before the next election. Hmmmm.
What would Van Jones say? Who cares now that he’s not a Czar anymore, right? Maybe he called the Obamas on their wasteful ways? That’s why he got the ax. Of course it is. It had nothing to do with the fact that he publicly announced his anti-white views, touted his radical communist beliefs along with his devotion to Black Liberation Theology. No, who’s troubled by minutia like that? Van probably dared to ask why the taxpayers are being told our energy prices will soar due to Obama’s Cap & Trade legislation but the Obamas do nothing to set an example of how to live “greener”. The only green they adhere to is the green money of tax dollars they spend with abandon. I know, I sound jealous. I admit, I’m still bitter over that pricey New York Date Night. It’s my own fault for spending my “date money” on my kids’ Catholic school education instead of sending them to the taxpayer funded public schools.
And speaking of the public schools…the hypocrisy trail continues to the classroom. I have a beef with that Arne Duncan, U.S. Secretary of Education. Arne, with Obama’s blessing, scratched the voucher system in D.C even though parents begged for vouchers to continue. This was a successful program offering kids living in the worst D.C. public school districts a chance at a private school education. Even though Obama would never send his little darlings to a D.C. public school, (they go to a pricey private school in the area), obviously the poor black kids are not meant to go to private schools. They have a more important mission, to fill the seats in public schools so that the Teachers Union can qualify for more money to line their pockets with. Every D.C. kid in the voucher program meant money missing from the coffers of the Teachers’ Union and we all know who means more to Obama. Union, yes, poor black kid, no (unless they are poor black kids in Chicago needing their housing project leveled to make way for Olympic venues).
The public school hypocrisy does not end there with Obama. For some unfathomable reason, Obama has chosen Kevin Jennings as his Safe School Czar. For those who don’t know Mr. Jennings, he comes highly touted as an educator according to Arne (no voucher for poor black kids) Duncan. Mr. Jennings is on the record as advocating homosexuality in schools, has written about his past drug abuse, his contempt for religion (that’s open mindedness for ya), and recounted in detail an incident when an underage student confided to Jennings that he was having sex with older men in bus station bathrooms. Jennings did not report this to anyone, instead offering the young boy advice on using condoms during future acts. Jennings now says he regrets his handling of this, claiming his own youth, being 24 at the time, as the cause for his lack of adult responsibility. This is the most disgusting, hypocritical excuse I’ve heard from the Obama circle yet.
Can anyone imagine the same excuse being handed out by a 24 year-old Catholic priest? The outrage would be deafening and RIGHTLY SO! Yet this damaged creature, Kevin Jennings, a man obviously in great need of therapy, is handed a high level, high paid position in the Obama Administration with the focus being the SAFETY OF CHILDREN IN OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Hypocrisy, straight up (no pun intended).
Are all of these contradictory actions and choices the result of arrogance, ignorance, perversion, evil or some toxic combination at work in the judgment of Barack Obama? There is a pattern here. The list of troubling deceptions, half-truths, and ala Joe Wilson, lies is long and grows by the news cycle. Keeping up with them is a full-time job. Like Obama being against torture but rendition is still a-okay! As long as we can hand a person off to someone else to torture and water board, that's fine. Appointing Tim "Me No Pay Tax" Geitner as Da Man who oversees who pays their taxes? My head hurt over that one but unfortunately it was just the beginning.
I kept waiting for Obama to go line by line through the budget cutting ALL PORK like he promised. Silly me, he meant he'd do that in his second term, remember, Bush really messed this joint up. It's going to take O years to get things straight again. And as for no lobbyists in his administration, he actually meant hobbyists. Obama is dead set against giving any taxpayer funds to hobbyists, especially in the sort of economy Bush left us with. Maybe that’s why the MSM tends to simply ignore all these little inconsistencies? Reporting each and every one is enough to make an objective reporter’s liberal head spin. Besides, who wants reporters to investigate what those in power are actually doing and why? If hypocrisy is good enough for our transparent (pass the bill before it’s read) leader, then it’s good enough for us all! Unless you’re one of those filthy Tea Baggers or Conservatives or protestor against tyrannical despots…you sorts need to be held accountable! Only the elite can be HypObamacrite.
