I started to put
this on FB but decided against it. After watching FOX News and
listening to Obama and his coven smirk, twist, and lie their way
through interviews, I had to vent. Here goes. If you can’t follow
my “chess” analogy, don’t worry, it was hard for me too.
Please critique.
O’Reilly missed it today.
He’s giving Obama the benefit of the doubt as to whether he lied to
America when he promised “if you like your insurance plan, you can
keep it......” Bill said that Obama has a legacy to think about,
and that he would know that if he got caught in a lie it would
tarnish it. Therefore, he wouldn’t lie. O’Reilly said his ego
won’t allow him to risk the embarrassment of impeachment. Uh, I
don’t think so. I think Obama is a pawn in this chess game of
power politics. Pawns can reach the other side of the board and
become more powerful by replacing themselves with a piece taken by
the opponent. Or, he can be
sacrificed in order that
the other pieces move
into more strategic positions to bring victory.
Two different outcomes for the pawn but one goal, to put the
opponent in checkmate. Either way he’s an important piece
(player). In other words, if by lying Obama can buy time and
continue the process until it is securely embedded, then being
impeached for lying is no biggie.
I believe that there is such a swell of
powerful folks determined not to let this opportunity slip through
their fingers that they or any of their “players,” including the
president, will lie, distort truths, or demonize anyone that gets in
the way. Massive control of our lives through healthcare is a prize
worth risking all for. Yes, I think our president is capable of just
about anything to hold onto this claim to fame. And, even if it
could be proven that he lied, I don’t believe conservatives are
going to be capable of breaking his hold on power. The press,
Hollywood, left organizations, unions, and groups that won’t bite
the hand that feeds them have insulated and protected him from the
voters and from congress. He is as they say “Teflon" and nothing
seems to stick either on him or any of his fellow travelers. He is a
pawn that can be played either way which is why I don’t think that
Bill’s assessment is correct. His legacy will be intact whether he
is impeached or gets to fulfill his presidency. And, he, like any of
the others in his circle, would be tickled to be thrown under the bus
for this prize—transforming America into a socialist nation. That
is the legacy he is interested in and will be remembered for.
Presidents come and go and get their pictures hung in the rotunda,
but to be THE ONE to achieve socialized medicine, well, ….that’s
his and the socialists’ “dream.”
As far as his presidential legacy goes,
as long as Obamacare survives, his legacy will be elevated by the
left. As America’s position and wealth slip from the top to lesser
positions in the world, the left will celebrate having placed freedom
and personal sovereignty in “checkmate.” They will joyously
announce to the proletariat class, “Now, everyone get in line for
your handouts.” Your healthcare will become a handout at the
pleasure of politicians and bureaucrats. It will take its place on
the list of items to be budgeted for every year, and every year we
the people will worry about cuts and new regs—another uncertainty.
