Is Obama Smart?


Truth, Justice, or the Obama Way


The Justice Department is forced to investigate itself.

It is about to get harder for both the Obama administration and the
mainstream media to downplay the New Black Panther party
scandal.


The mainstream media did their best to ignore this blatant case of
voter intimidation by two New Black Panther party members at a Philadelphia
polling place on Election Day 2008. Though the threatening behavior was captured
on videotape, Obama political appointees dismissed the case on the eve of a
default judgment. When in early June a key trial team member, Justice Department attorney J. Christian Adams, resigned and then testified before the U.S.
Commission on Civil Rights, the media grudgingly reported on his
testimony.

But, despite Adams’s testimony that the case was indicative of a
widespread aversion in the Voting Section to colorblind enforcement of the civil
rights laws, the media framed the story as an isolated case unworthy of
continuing coverage. After all, just one witness was claiming that this was the
mindset in the Justice Department. And besides, the head of the Civil Rights
Division, Thomas Perez, had testified before both Congress and the commission
that the case was legally and factually defective.


In fact, there is ample evidence, including Justice Department
emails obtained by The Weekly Standard, that Perez testified untruthfully. There
is every reason to believe, moreover, that if allowed to testify, several other
Justice Department attorneys would substantiate Adams’s allegations and
contradict Perez’s sworn testimony. Not to mention that the department itself
acknowledged last week that the matter of biased enforcement of voting laws
requires investigation.




This is why the left hates Fox News


White House Insider on Obama: “the President is Losing It.


There are many questions about President Obama. People really didn't know who he was before the election and are scratching their heads after it even more? Is he a brilliant scholar? Is he an ideologue pushing through his agenda? Is he confident and outgoing? Or is he reclusive? Is he a hard worker staying up nights to serve our country? Here's some of the answers from an recent interview with a senior White House staffer who has left the administration.



But after Obama was sworn in, things began to change? Almost
immediately. Obama loved to campaign. He clearly didn’t like the work of being President though, and that attitude was felt by the entire
White House staff within weeks after the inauguration.
Obama the
tireless, hard working candidate became a very tepid personality to us.
And the few news stories that did come out against him were the only things he
seemed to care about. He absolutely obsesses
over Fox News
. For being so successful, Barack Obama is
incredibly thin-skinned. He takes everything very personally.


Here are some other insights from this article:

Obama is scared to death of Hillary. He doesn’t trust her – obsesses over her almost as much as he does Fox News.

I hear he plays a lot of golf, and watches a lot of television:
ESPN mainly. I’ll tell you this – if you want to see President Obama get
excited about a conversation, turn it to sports. That
gets him interested


No – I am not going to call him stupid. He just doesn’t strike me as particularly smart. Bill Clinton is a smart guy – he would run
intellectual circles around Barack Obama. And Bill Clinton
loved the politics of being president. Obama seems to think he shouldn’t have to be bothered, which has created a considerable amount of conflict among his staff.

I mean to say that he is losing whatever spark he had during the
campaign. When you take away the crowds, Obama gets noticeably
smaller.
He shrinks up inside of himself. He just doesn’t seem to have the confidence to do the job of President, and it’s getting worse and worse


But would another four years of an Obama presidency be the best
thing for America?
(Long pause) Now that is a much more
interesting question right there, and a question I think more and more Democrat
Party insiders are asking themselves these days, myself included. I am going to come right out and say it – No. Obama is not up to the job of being president.
He simply doesn’t seem to care about the work involved. You want to
know what? Obama is lazy. He really is. And it is getting worse and worse.





On Friday evening, when President Obama addressed the Congressional Hispanic
Caucus Institute, he quoted that passage as follows : “We hold these
truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal [pause], endowed with
certain unalienable rights: life and liberty, and the pursuit of
happiness.” In Obama’s version, there is no “Creator.”


No creator, no God, no Muslim faith.



And interesting way to look at the right vs the left in how they handle defeat.


This is yet another confirmation that the right and left
look at America – and Americans – quite differently. The leftists view
their countrymen as in dire need of supervision — by elites like them, of
course. Americans are not competent to make decisions on their own, and left to
their own devices, will run amok. Wall Streeters are greedy, New Yorkers
are xenophobes, and the rest of us are Bible- and gun-huggers. And here we go
again — acting out and acting up. Obama, the poor dear, just can’t talk sense to
us.


When things go wrong for the left, it blames the people; when things go wrong for the right, it blames the governing elites. It is not in the
nature of conservatives to demean and attack fellow citizens. To the contrary,
conservatives’ vision is grounded in the belief that Americans are competent,
decent, and hardworking, and it is the heavy hand of government that threatens
to squelch American virtues.
