Not To Rub It In…Oh What Am I Saying? I’m In The Mood To Rub It In

March 7, 2009 / 10:23 pm • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

If the pointy heads weren’t so dang condescending and superior, their baby mea culpas would be more satisfying. If the country wasn’t going down the crapper, with President Barack Obama doing the conga line as Gordon Brown gets dissed and GM teeters on the brink, I’d enjoy this more:

Contrast Buckley, Gergen and Brooks with, let us say, Rush Limbaugh, whose appearance at any chic cocktail party would cause the hostess to faint dead away, or with Thomas Sowell, who occupies probably the most unfashionable position in the country, that of a black conservative.

Limbaugh and Sowell both got Obama right from the very get-go. “Just what evidence do you have,” Sowell replied when I asked, shortly before the election, whether he considered Obama a centrist, “that he’s anything but a hard-left ideologue?”

The elite journalists, I repeat, got Obama wrong. The troglodytes got him right. As our national drama continues to unfold, bear that in mind.

I would enjoy their drumming at the hands of a friend a whole lot more if these jerks didn’t buy the groceries to pack the hand-basket that is now being swung merrily by President Obama on the road to hell.

Instead, I’m just angry as hell.

It’s all well and good to get religion now. How convenient. My only solace is that I’m not sure that John McCain would be any more sure during these economic troubles. I am quite certain, though, that he would know to have a state dinner for the Prime Minister of England, our staunchest and longest and most beloved ally. I’m quite sure that John McCain would not be sending secret written letters to freaking Russia. I have no doubt that John McCain wouldn’t even entertain meeting with the murderous thug Basher Assad. So while, I wasn’t convinced of John McCain’s genius, I knew he wasn’t a fool.

Barack Obama is exactly the sort of leader the unwashed masses on the Right expected. That is, he’s an arrogant professor comfortable in the realm of the theoretical, confident behind a teleprompter and calculatingly genius when it comes to campaigning. He’s young, inexperienced, and unschooled in the form and function of President.

It’s embarrassing. Worse, it’s enraging. Useful idiots, unbothered by compelling evidence, bought the “hope” and “change”. Not that I cared much what they said before, but Brooks, Buckley and the rest have a very long way to go on the road to redemption. Being that easily duped displays the same lack of judgment possessed by the commander-in-chief they voted to elect. There aren’t enough tax dollars to be extracted to make up for that mistake.

So yep. Rubbing it in. I wish being right felt better.

    Hi Doc… I think if you are REALLY RICH, it doesn’t hurt too much cause you still have a LOT… and… if you are poor, it’s ok because you are still poor… but… if you are sort of medium rich… or well off…or doing pretty good, President Obama has a long term bad feel… Anyway, Jerry Lee Lewis is never bad… even if he is on PBS…comealongababywhoe lotashakingoingon…

    I may be a bit more cynical of these “pointy heads”. I believe that this was just wishful thinking on their part. They suffered from a terminal case of Bush Derangement Syndrome. The new anti-Bush must be better, so they saw him the way they wanted him to be seen. Failing that, they new better, but just did not care. Anyone would be better…

    If Buckley et. al. are honest or honorable, the first words out of their mouth should be I was completely wrong and I am sorry. Till I hear that I am still mad. After I hear that I will be, slightly less mad.

    My son’s future is now to work two jobs to pay for Obama’s debt. Someone want to tell me why I shouldn’t be mad?
