But the comedians and pundits have told us that there is nothing funny about this President. There is simply nothing about Obama that can be mocked or ridiculed — unlike his predecessor. I have been assured that is the case.

Ogabe’s answer wouldn’t have been “government”, it would have been “me”. He believes the answer to everything is himself, because he knows more and is better equipped to make decisions on everyone else’s behalf than any other person in the world.

Exactly right! He sees himself as Jesus, Frodo Baggins, and Mila Jovovich from The Fifth Element all rolled into one.

Which kind of tool does that make him?

Saying that he is a tool implies that he is useful.

There is only one tool in the socialist tool box. It’s a hammer. Therefore every problem is a nail.

Obama never ‘gets’ the relationship, even though his late grandmother was a bank manager.

Ramirez – a national treasure!

One of my two favorite cartoonists! (The other is Bill Watterson, who did Calvin and Hobbes.)

I noticed and loved the thing in the lower right-hand corner too.

That is awesome, but eerily similar to 0bama actually wrting on a chalkboard as a ‘professor.’
Check out the “Power Analysis” Relationships ‘built on self interest’ which are now controlled or on their way to being controlled by him!
Corp, banks, utilities, ?
I wish I knew what he was saying as he wrote that.

Brat on June 25, 2009 at 11:11 AM

Brat,

He was teaching the Alinsky method. From Wikipedia: “Alinsky came up with the idea of power analysis, which looks at relationships built on self-interest between corporations, banks and utilities.” It’s definitely Alinsky.

A famous bit of wisdom says that when all you have is a hammer, every problem starts looking like a nail. Thus far, every problem looks to Barack Obama as an opportunity for government intervention and nationalization. Which kind of tool does that make him?

Just a tool

My high school religion students often answer an unrelated question with an overly excited “JESUS!” to which I loudly reply, “yes, Jesus is the answer, but not to this question!”

How really good is Ramirez at his craft? He was duly honored and given a huge award by his contemporaries recently at the National Cartoonists Association…which is saying a lot since most of those folks are as, if not more, liberal than Obama.

Ramirez is an undeniable genius and the country is better a place for his art. A truly good cartoon says way more than a thousand words!

I think Ramirez is subltly saying that in Obama’s mind democracy is not a legitimate form of government.
