I like this part too: Now that he’s won, Obama holds the power to write his own history, literally. His biggest early success came as a memoir author, not as a politician, and he plans to write the definitive narrative of his presidency after 2016, according to two people close to the president.

Whatever he writes, they believe, will include not only his candid account of his battles with Romney and Boehner, but a frank discussion of a topic he has been reluctant to address in depth during his four years in office — the role of race in American political life and his own career.

So, Obama will be dictating to us all what his legacy will be. Don’t you dare come to your one conclusions. Know your place, citizen.

And, brace yourself for the frank discussion/lecture from Obama about race then, that he doesn’t have the balls to attempt now while he is in office.

“He doesn’t need to await the verdict of history,” said an Obama insider during the last days of the campaign. “He’ll write it himself.”

That’s what they all say.

He had a massive mandate, a huge House majority, then almost a year of a 60 seat Senate supermajority

Did use his once in a generation chance to pass the liberal wish list they’ve dreamed about? NO, thank God

– He wasted capital on the failed Stimulus bill, which flopped
– He passed Dodd-Frank
– He wasted the rest of his first term’s capital on Obamacare

No cap and trade, no union card check, no immigration reform/amnesty, etc. This was a massive waste of capital for him. He could have accomplished so much more and blew it, due to incompetence and inexperience

So now, instead of pushing amnesty through and creating a new permanent liberal majority, he’s instead:

– wasting untold capital, public goodwill, and even media attention on this sequester/debt limit BS
– he’s chosen class warfare tax raises as his #1 priority

ANd he’s increasingly looking likely to waste the next year on gun control, which could be 2010 all over again for them in the midterms, especially with all the vulnerable red state senators up in 2014

He is an idiot. Let’s at least be thankful for that fact or this Republic could be in so much worse shape even

He has calmed the waters, cooled the planet, fed the hungry, and clothed the needy. Energy to power our great economic engines now leaps from the sun to find the Earth a waiting vessel. Peace covers the Mideast like a flannel blanket on a cold night.

Ignore those nattering nabobs of negativism called Tea Party Republican Conservative Mensch. They lie; they’re rascists.

As long as we have an irresponsible media, Obysmal will be blameless.

“Standing up to them would not only be a gift to the country, but a big part of his legacy.”

A gift of the Trojan-horse variety.
