Obama... The UNPresident

Sometimes, bloggers get lucky. I was struggling with finding something to write about and then Obama addressed the U.N. Thank you, Jebus! What Obama said was utterly stupid.

Let me start by mocking what Obama’s opening act John Kerry said. Kerry said, “It would be a complete understatement to say that we meet at a challenging time.” In other words, grade us on a curve. Well, let me ask His Weakness which of the following challenges faced by others Kerry and Obama are currently facing:

Are the Nazis or Commies sweeping through Europe? Hardly. Are the people rioting in the streets in every capitol? Nope. Is the Clinton-weakened military struggling to fight multiple wars as a disloyal opposition offers aid and comfort to anyone who opposes the administration? Nope. Are we losing a war in Southeast Asia as American colleges burn and American soldiers revolt? Nope. Do our enemies threaten our annihilation with nuclear weapons? No. Is the flu or AIDS killing millions of people? Is an entire continent starving while another is ravaged by civil war? Does the second most productive continent on Earth lie in post-war smoking ruins? Nope.

So what exactly makes this time so challenging other than the fact that Kerry/Obama are too stupid to solve simple problems? No curve for you, loser.

Now Obama. Obama wants to spend trillions of dollars over 15 years to end poverty around the world.

First, commies always go for 5 year plans. Going for 15 sounds like weak borscht to me. As for spending trillions, we already did that in the US and guess what? According to the left, there is more poverty now than ever in the US. So clearly, that is not the answer. Or is the left lying about American poverty?

Also, why in the world should we accept that Obama has a clue how to solve poverty when it’s gotten so much worse under his watch. Plus, he already spent all of our money, so too bad suckers. Don’t take a check from this man ==>

Anyways, he calls this “not charity but instead is one of the smartest investments we can make in our own future.” Uh, no. It is charity because Obama is just proposing handouts. And it certainly doesn’t help my future. It’s no skin off my ass if a bunch of Syrians butcher each other or if some person in Bangladesh doesn’t have a job. Besides, looking at lives as an investment is cruel and evil and business-y... isn’t it? It is when other people do it.

Obama is justifying his plan on the basis that 800 million men, women and children scrape by on less than $1.25 a day and that billions of people are at risk of dying from preventable diseases. He particularly noted the “moral outrage” that many children are just one mosquito bite away from death.

But again, what about the 40 million who live in poverty here? He’s done nothing for them in the last eight years. As for the preventable diseases thing, see Obamacare for why you don’t want Dr. Obama tampering with your health care. And as for the mosquito thing, it was Obama’s people who banned DDT before places like Africa could be made safe. What’s more, it’s interesting that he should pick that particular example when groups like the Gates Foundation have made fools of the groups Obama likes to laud by managing to nearly solve the malaria issue those other groups couldn’t dent for decades. So yeah, low credibility here, Lord O.

Sensing this, he tries to jam Syria and war in there as an excuse. First, Obama warns us that “development is threatened by war.” Really? Where. Outside of Syria and Iraq and a couple other minor places, the world has never been more stable. And frankly, it’s not like Syria or Iraq were ever very developed or contributed much to the world economy.

He then said that Syria is the greatest refugee crisis since World War II and that other countries “that can, must do more to accommodate refugees,” but added that those efforts must be matched by diplomacy. I’ve been pondering this quote and it seems like nonsense. Was this refugee crisis really the result of a lack of diplomacy? Or was it the insane assholes who are killing everyone they come across that they don’t like? What’s more, he’s implying that there is a diplomatic solution. Does he really think that? What exactly is the diplomatic middle ground between “I will kill you savagely” and “I don’t want to die!”?

Anyways, he wants you to think that pouring trillions down the toilet will stop war and end mosquito-related deaths. But why should we believe it when it’s never worked before in the past?

Thoughts?
