'My dearly departed mother had a great comeback for children who attempted to blame siblings or friends for their greater public transgressions. Not that I ever found myself on the receiving end of this axiom, of course, but it went like this: “Who is worse – the fool, or the fool who follows him?”

I’ve been considering the question of fools lately, since there is apparently an overabundance of them in America. These vehemently insist upon defending the indefensible actions of their president, Barack Obama, despite the fact that he has dangerously compromised the nation in every manner imaginable. It has gotten to the point where only a fool could fail to see it.
...
The American fool may not be stupid, but he or she has fallen prey to the belief that issues of Social Justice, gay “marriage,” bullying, and climate change are more pressing than the fact that our nation has a pack of radical Marxists at the helm, operating more or less unchecked, that our economy is teetering before a yawning abyss, and that we are being left increasingly open to aggression by foreign enemies.
...
With our economy at critical mass as it is, and considering this administrations’ actions to date, Obama’s presentation transcended theater and misrepresentation; it was a full-fledged campaign of incomprehensibly audacious, bald-faced lies. He summarily disregards the elephant in the room: That question of how we are to avert economic implosion if the government absolutely refuses to cut spending on anything. The press of course, refuses to ask the question of him.

Still, was so blatant that one wonders if only a fool could fail to recognize it.

It is, as I have repeatedly said, Obama’s intention to catalyze an economic cataclysm, rather than political ineptitude. At this point Obama is playing only to those who are sufficiently uninformed or too dim to tell that he is lying – the fools who follow him. The rest of us, as he has demonstrated, simply don’t matter.'
