President Obama Said "My Policies R On The Ballot"

[deacon blues]

The president said he was not on the ballot but his policies were. Those policies were resoundingly repudiated Nov. 4.

Common sense says a chastened president would acknowledge the obvious—some things aren’t working, he has made some mistakes—and, in Mr. Obama’s case, hit the reset button with Congress. Reach out, be humble. Humility has power. It shows people that you have some give—you get the message, you are capable of self-correcting.

That is not what he’s doing. The president is instead doubling down on hostility, antagonism and distance.

Did anyone really expect anything different from a man who has ridden over this nation like a tyrant. He does not believe himself to be merely above the law, but is convinced that he is the law, therefore what he says is the way things must be. His interest is not in either unity, nor in strength, but rather in creating the largest possible power vacuum of chaos, fear, and despair. He loves not our country, nor his fellow citizens. Why then are people shocked that a man with no apparent claim to any great virtue reacts as though he has none?
