Dear Mr. President, Zero-Sum Doesn't Add Up

[National Director, Dee]

By P.J. O'ROURKE

Given that hypocrisy is an important part of diplomacy, and diplomacy is necessary to foreign policy, allow me to congratulate you on winning a second term.

I wish I could also congratulate you on your conduct of international affairs. I do thank you for killing Osama bin Laden. It was a creditable action for which you deserve some of the credit you've been given. Of course the intelligence was gathered, and the mission was undertaken, by men and women who, although they answer to your command, answer to duty first. And it is difficult to imagine any president of the United States who, under the circumstances, wouldn't have ordered the strike against bin Laden. Although there is Jimmy Carter. Thank you for not being Jimmy Carter.

But even though it violates the insincere amity that creates a period of calm following national elections, no thank you for the following, and it is only a partial list:

• Telling the Taliban to play by the rules or you'll take your ball and go home;

• Leaving Iraq in a lurch (and in a hurry);

• Watching the EU go down the sink drain and into the Greece trap and wanting to take America along on the trip;

• Miscalculating human rights and strategic engagement in the Chinese arithmetic of your China policy;

• Being the personification of bad weather during the Arab Spring with your chilly response when you encountered its best aspects and your frozen inaction when you encountered its worst;

• Playing with Russian nesting dolls, opening hollow figurine after hollow figurine hoping to find one that doesn't look like Vladimir Putin;

• Sitting and doing nothing like a couch potato watching a made-for-TV movie as the Castro and Chávez zombies continue their rampage;

• Hugging the door on your date with Israel;

• Putting the raw meat of incentives in your pants pocket when you go to scold the pit bulls of Iran and North Korea;

But the worst thing that you've done internationally is what you've done domestically. You sent a message to America in your re-election campaign. Therefore you sent a message to the world. The message is that we live in a zero-sum universe.

There is a fixed amount of good things. Life is a pizza. If some people have too many slices, other people have to eat the pizza box. You had no answer to Mitt Romney's argument for more pizza parlors baking more pizzas. The solution to our problems, you said, is redistribution of the pizzas we've got—with low-cost, government-subsidized pepperoni somehow materializing as the result of higher taxes on pizza-parlor owners.

His policies failed because he is a fraud and usurper using a stolen social security number , forged birth certificate and forged selective service registration card to prove he is a legal sitting US President .

One minute to twelve. Nothing that this evil entity has done to the country over the past 4 years can be considered positive.  Figure, bankrupted the US Treasury, economically tanked the US, disasterous energy policies, cowtowing to the enemy. Set a precident by which it is no longer necessary to fit the Constitutional Criteria to be eligible for president, the Sorros election that we all know full well has been a total total fraud. Look out, here comes Fienstein/Frankenstein!

With any luck California will go down the tubes and take all of the elected village idiots with them.

I keep wondering why the Obamunist is so unshakeable about what he wants. Here are somethings that might be the reason. He definatley has plans to use the money for something particular he wants to do. Maybe hire thousands of Reserve Medical Officers that will be his private army as he has promised to have. Maybe he is going to declare martial law and go about confiscating guns door to door. Maybe impliment Agenda 21. Move people out of suburbs into an urban environment. Keep guessing because he is going to do something radical. Most sheeple will go along out of fear, thinking it is not them he wants to control. He does not care about the sheeple. He cares about himself. If you are a liberal it does not matter. That does not keep you safe. There is something he has said in the past that he is going to do. Maybe he needs guns for his private army. Just think if he allows illegals in without control and he gives them freebies they will become liberals at least in voting sides. There will never be another conservative elected. Maybe he wants the money to buy this country. through free phones, condoms, medical rights, free abortion, who knows. He has no shame.

Well he did not sign the kill BL order as he and Valerrie Jerrett was kept out of the loop,left behind.It was held in secert without him and Valerie Jerrrett both all three times said No when an order to kill BL and that's why they were left behind both of them !Obama was on the golf course and had no idea what was taken place behind his back ! Only when Navy Seal Team 6 felt good about going after and Kill BL it was a go as Obama did not sign no such orddder erOnly. When Navy Seal Team 6 crossed over the boarder of Pakistan. ..abama was looked. For at the gulf course to tell. Him that an kill order had been signed to kill BL and that's happening now. Obama watched as he got up and on national Tv told the world of our Navy Seal Team 6 he leaked information as our Navy Seals were in trying to get documents and even names...Navey SEALS WERE called and told to get out now that Obama had releashed the attacks and also the names of Navy Seal Team ^ ...it's odd that we lost only not long after 17 top of the line Navy Seals ..Special Task force team and illitelligents all place on one flight. To be blow awas they were getting ready to land ! Never has so mmany been placed on one flight! Why? WWhat

Just asking, Mr. President have you ever accomplished anything in your life through legitimate means?

HIS A TRAITOR   PLAIN AND SIMPLE

[Eleanor Jean Turner]

No, Mona.....sorry, but he is doing EXACTLY what he is supposed to do! HE IS A COMMUNIST!! AND just like his REAL Daddy, Mr. Davis taught him. The reason you see a traitor is because that WOULD be your first impression of a Communist.....doing traitorous stuff.

Barry....just clean up your act.  We aren't murderous. You are guilty of so much I don't know where to start.  But the SSA card.  You WERE old enough then to know Gramma was doing wrong, bringing you a completed SSA card.  It's ONE thing for you to use it Saturday nights, but to STILL be usoing it is criminal.

Then we have the travels to Pakastan when U.S.citizens were not allowed.  Were you an Indonesian then?

Your college/university records....were they so bad you are embarrassed?  No problem. But getting "Aid to Foreign Students" IS a problem.  Where WERE you from?

Loosing your "Bar"......now you WERE old enough to know better!!  What brought that down.....lying about using other names?  How many ARE there now.....your step father's,but then there are all the names the credit chasers came up with!!

I feel sorry for your daughters, having to live with your legacy when you are gone.  They are sweet children, but I have always wondered who it was that put this proper State Senators family together for you.  And was it by legal adoption or kidnap in Kenya?  Just asking.
