POL Is Obama Divisive? More Delusion and Subterfuge

[dstraito]

I contend there has NEVER been a more divisive POTUS. His rhetoric and actions have divided the country along class lines, race lines, and political lines like never before. While he promises bipartisan behavior he displays it by saying to the GOP "Y'all just stay out of the way while I sweep up the mess you caused."

He eschews blame but the lament "It's Bushes fault" falls short after nearly four years in office.

He promises transparency while covering up almost ALL his and his administrations action.

He foments negative campaigns, probably because they worked so well at getting him into the Senate.


When he says he doesn't think anyone would say he tried to divide the country he is referring to the lamestream media who would not dare saying anything negative, especially if it were true.

Here is a quote from Bam Bam:

"We're going around the country, talking about, ‘How do we put people back to work? How do we improve our schools? How do we make sure that we're producing American energy? How do we lower our debt in a responsible way?' And I don't think you or anybody who's been watching the campaign would say that in any way we have tried to divide the country. We've always tried to bring the country together," President Obama said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.

This was a huge mistake for Obama. Just saying that brings forth an immediate response from the listener/reader.

very nixonian of him - hope someday an historian picks up the thread and writes a book on how many times and ways he followed those footsteps.

"I am not a crook".

Brings to mind the old adage: Actions speak louder than words.

"And I don't think you or anybody who's been watching the campaign would say that in any way we have tried to divide the country."

Technically, this may be true. Rather than "try", they simply "have", owing to Obama's racial makeup, what some would call a "socialist" past in Chicago, Kenya, Indonesia and Hawaii, and the fundamentally changed racial demographics of the US. In a sense, I'm suggesting that Obama is more the "effect" (a.k.a. "cart") than the "cause" (a.k.a. "horse").

Since the immigration act of the mid-60s, the common ethnicity the US once enjoyed has pretty-much been destroyed. Now, the US is much like the "Tower of Babel", or any other (ultimately failed) multi-ethnic empire.

If you dump a pile of "crap" on the US, you're going to get mushrooms.
