I watched some footage today of Vladamir Putin signing some decree.\u00a0 It was in the midst of this Crimea thing, but it could have been file footage from anything.\u00a0 There he was sitting at his desk.\u00a0 No crowd of onlookers, no little boy who needs health care, no speaker of the house looking like a grinning ghoul with a face so stretched it might burst.\u00a0 Just Vlad sitting at his desk and using a single pen signing the document.<\/p>\n
Look at anything Obama signs into law but particularly signature pieces of legislation.\u00a0 For the farce that has become and still is Obamacare, he used 22 pens, one for each letter of his name.\u00a0 It took him a minute and a half to sign his damn name.\u00a0 And the pens?\u00a0 The run about $140 each.\u00a0 So $3080 tax payer dollars spent so that he can feel even better about himself by giving the pens away.<\/p>\n
Does the pen that made the “O” have more value than the other letters?\u00a0 Pretty soon, I bet you’ll find plenty of them on Ebay.<\/p>\n
If you look at pictures of the signing you’ll also see that the box housing the pens is exactly the right size for all 22 pens.\u00a0 Now 22 is an odd number.\u00a0 Pens do not come in that quantity; usually 12 or 6.\u00a0 So the ornate, polished, and felt lined box had to be custom made as well.\u00a0 More money down the toilet.<\/p>\n
The thing is, everything is a ceremony for this guy.\u00a0 He invokes himself into everything.\u00a0 Moochelle does too.\u00a0 I was watching the premier showing of Cosmos on Fox (Fox!) the other day.\u00a0 Great show full of computer graphics and theories about the start of the universe.\u00a0 There’s Barry introducing the show.\u00a0 How many times has he been on the View?\u00a0 Who watches that show, anyway?<\/p>\n
Moochelle had to have an episode of The Biggest Loser.\u00a0 Barry injects himself into all sorts of legal issues from Trayvon Martin (“if I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon”) to the Henry Louis Gates fiasco where he said the “Cambridge police acted stupidly.” before any serious facts of the case were established.\u00a0 Oh, and in that scenario, when the officer, Gates, Obama and Biden got together for a backyard beer?\u00a0 Who helped the elderly Gates down the steps?\u00a0 Yes, Officer James Crowley.\u00a0 Biden and Barry are walking ahead oblivious to the struggles of the elderly Gates on his cane.<\/p>\n
Obama thinks the world is his stage and everyone on the planet are members of his personal audience.\u00a0 We’re supposed to watch in awe as he makes decisions and clap in amazement whenever he mounts those steps at a measured trot.<\/p>\n
Got news for you, buddy.\u00a0 The world has figured out that you are far more actor than leader.\u00a0 You are out of your depth and do not have the resolve, stomach, back bone (pick your example) for making tough, sound, strategic decisions.\u00a0 More sanctions are expected against ole’ Vlad by Barry.\u00a0 Of course, Putin will be in Kiev before Obama finishes signing the document.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
