The Clown Prince of America

Terrific! We've finally discovered something that Barack Obama is good at!

At the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner, America's 44th president had the attendees struggling to contain their bladders when he quipped that he's not "the strapping young Muslim socialist" he used to be. http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130428/DA5UD3LG1.html

Concerning a potential tour to show off his immeasurable charm to all those uneducated hicks who cling to their guns and religion during difficult times, America's comedian-in-chief said this: "In fact, I'm taking my charm offensive on the road -- a Texas barbeque with Ted Cruz, a Kentucky bluegrass concert with Rand Paul, and a book-burning with Michele Bachmann."  

Whether Obama's jokes are truly that hilarious is a matter of debate. Certainly, those who desire to have their lips surgically attached to his better half have a vested interest in horse-laughing at his witty bon mots and clever one-liners. That gives them a better shot at getting closer to the end result than criticizing his dubious policies.

However, unlike his jokes, Obama's policies aren't so funny. Ask some of the 100,570,000 Americans who can't find work in Obama's booming economy how amusing that is? theeconomiccollapseblog.com
Back in 2007, during the seventh year of George W. Bush's presidency, approximately 10 percent of America's workforce was out of work for one year or longer. Under America's comedian-in-chief, that figure is now 30 percent.

Or, ask the surviving victims of the recent Boston Marathon bombings how amusing they find Obama's Homeland Security Department that allowed the Tsarnaev brothers--ethnic Chechens--to carry out the terrorist attack after the FBI blew off a warning from Russia concerning the two. From myway.com:  "Russian authorities secretly recorded a telephone conversation in 2011 in which one of the Boston bombing suspects vaguely discussed jihad with his mother, officials said Saturday, days after the U.S. government finally received details about the call."

The Russians have a lot of experience with Islamists from Chechnya who have carried out a number of attacks throughout Russia over the past 15 years. When they warned the FBI that older brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev had been schmoozing with radical Islamists during a six month visit to his native Russia in 2011, the FBI didn't take them seriously.

Fortunately for Obama, he has a fawning media that protects him from scrutiny. When something invariably goes wrong because of the slew of incompetents he employs throughout his administration, the media always promotes his excuses. Concerning the Benghazi attack, Obama's media sycophants blamed that on a YouTube video that inflamed the Islamic world. Concerning the Fast and Furious scandal, that was blamed on rogue agents in the ATF. Concerning Tamerlan Tsarnaev's affiliation with al Qaeda operatives in Russia, that was propaganda put out by Islamophobic conservatives who want to impose Christianity upon the world.

Sooner or later, Americans are going to wake up to the reality that Barack H. Obama is--as Mitt Romney once eloquently put it--way in over his head as a president. That was evident from 2009 through 2012. Unfortunately, over 50 million Americans didn't get it last November and voted to reelect the comedian-in-chief to a second term.

And now, the joke's on them.
