"The Alien In The White House"
— Ace

Some damn fine vituperatin' from Dorothy Rabinowitz.

[I]t was clear from the first that this president—single-minded, ever-visible, confident in his program for a reformed America saved from darkness by his arrival—was wanting in certain qualities citizens have until now taken for granted in their presidents. Namely, a tone and presence that said: This is the Americans' leader, a man of them, for them, the nation's voice and champion. Mr. Obama wasn't lacking in concern about the oil spill. What he lacked was that voice—and for good reason.

...

A great part of America now understands that this president's sense of identification lies elsewhere, and is in profound ways unlike theirs. He is hard put to sound convincingly like the leader of the nation, because he is, at heart and by instinct, the voice mainly of his ideological class. He is the alien in the White House, a matter having nothing to do with delusions about his birthplace cherished by the demented fringe.

...

It is a White House that has focused consistently on the sensitivities of the world community—as it is euphemistically known—a body of which the president of the United States frequently appears to view himself as a representative at large.

It is what has caused this president and his counterterrorist brain trust to deem it acceptable to insult Americans with nonsensical evasions concerning the enemy we face. It is this focus that caused Mr. Holder to insist on holding the trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in lower Manhattan, despite the rage this decision induced in New Yorkers, and later to insist if not there, then elsewhere in New York. This was all to be a dazzling exhibition for that world community—proof of Mr. Obama's moral reclamation program and that America had been delivered from the darkness of the Bush years.

...

They are attitudes to be found everywhere, but never before in a president of the United States. Mr. Obama may not hold all, or the more extreme, of these views. But there can be no doubt by now of the influences that have shaped him. They account for his grand apology tour through the capitals of Europe and to the Muslim world, during which he decried America's moral failures—her arrogance, insensitivity. They were the words of a man to whom reasons for American guilt came naturally. Americans were shocked by this behavior in their newly elected president. But he was telling them something from those lecterns in foreign lands—something about his distant relation to the country he was about to lead.

The truth about that distance is now sinking in, which is all to the good. A country governed by leaders too principled to speak the name of its mortal enemy needs every infusion of reality it can get.

1 This strange little man has no roots beyond the twisted Marxism imparted by his mentors. He has no home. He could have made his home in us, but instead was so audacious as to attempt to bend us to HIS will. Maybe in another place or time..but not this America. This Presidency is OVER.

So do we now get to put the asterisk next to his name in the history books??

6 Never heard of this woman before. One wonders if she has a blog.

She's on the editorial board at WSJ.

She also is the reporter behind exposing the abusive prosecution in the Fells Acres (Amirault) case.  This hit the news during the Brown/Coakley contest because Coakley was involved in that prosecution.

18 This isn't news to most of us on the dextrosphere. I knew from the first that Obama was a far-left Marxist ideologue -- I was flummoxed when he actually beat Lady Clinton in the primaries to become the Democratic nominee. It proved to me, once and for all, that there is no such thing any more as a moderate Democrat. The party is (and has been for some time) firmly in the grip of the Marxist/New Left wing. But more than that, Obama exhibits all the worst traits of the public-sector academic who has never held an actual private-sector job. He's peevish, thin-skinned, arrogant, and intolerant of opinions divergent to his own. He does not delegate well (an awful defect in the job he has now). He views talking as his primary job -- he has trouble converting his lofty speechifying into concrete action. He favors the general to the specific and the emotional to the pragmatic. He is what happens to people when they never leave school -- they go from being undergrads to postgrads to PhD candidates to postdocs to assistant profs to profs, and spend their evenings and weekends in "social justice" work. They lead very tiny and constricted lives, and they know this at some level. A lot of their grandiose dreams are compensatory: they are trying to make up for their own pointless and aimless lives. And we elected one of these creatures to lead the country.

Yeah I think, for example, most of us kind of expected a Clintonesque foreign policy.  You know a little bit of apology and stuff.  Not the full blown anti-americanism he's demonstrated in his speeches.  And then there's the bowing to foreign leaders.  Insulting and backstabbing our allies.  Its like think of what you don't want a president to do and then he does it.

@10 I'm with you on that -- I knew it would be bad, but never thought it would be this bad, and he's only halfway through (which makes me a tad nervous about just where the bottom of bad is going to finally go).

The truly sad thing is that there are still Americans who support and defend him to the hilt, still think he is the "lightworker".  That kool aide is some powerful stuff.

Pretty sure that Ms. Rabinowitz won the Pulitzer for her writing re: the Amirault (sp?) case.  She has always been one of my favorite writers at the WSJ.  She didn't come right out and say it, but in the article, her discussion on the "Bust of Churchill" and President Wonce seems to have really put her off.

I'll never forget what it was like initially reading Rabinowitz's stories on the Amirault case:  Journalism at its most powerful, of which she's almost a sole practitioner.  After reading any of them I had to walk around a bit to calm down, both from wondering "how can this be happening in my country" and "why is she the only one talking about this".  Fortunately some attorneys had the same reaction and acted accordingly to secure Gerald Amirault's partial freedom; the gutless Massaholits fucks still have him registered as a sex offender and he has to wear a tracking device.  Piss on all the cocksuckers who railroaded him, particularly Scott Harshbarger most recently defending those ACORN turds.

She also writes on television every other week in the WSJ's friday entertainment section, in which her opinions are almost always spot-on.

39 DEBKA: After eight months of back-breaking work, the American military engineers helping Egypt build a steel anti-smuggling wall along the strategic Philadelphi Route dividing Gaza from Sinai were suddenly recalled, signaling the collapse of EgyptÂ’s blockade of the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip. Washington thus abandoned its half-a-billion dollar investment in the joint Egyptian-Israeli siege project.

What US president Barack Obama did this week was to go back to his confrontational posture against the Israeli prime minister, at the very moment that Israeli leaders had their backs to the wall against a worldwide onslaught over the flotilla incident orchestrated from Ankara and Tehran.
Washington has now set its face on a new track: salvaging its ties with Turkey by burning the Netanyahu government.

It's like reflexive genuflection.  In this case, though, it's counterproductive because there is insufficient public evidence that settles the matter either way.

As I said before, the right needs to leave the birther door open because that may be the only way to extricate the country from a fuck-it-all lame duck session that rams through cap-and-tax, a VAT, card-check, and all kinds of other craziness that we cannot even begin to imagine.

44 This was an excellent article (save the 'demented' mention) but Rabinowitz is still on the boundary of the real problem.  She writes,

A great part of America now understands that this president's sense of identification lies elsewhere, and is in profound ways unlike theirs. He is hard put to sound convincingly like the leader of the nation, because he is, at heart and by instinct, the voice mainly of his ideological class.

but she makes the mistake of thinking that this is ideological to The Precedent.  It isn't.  It's cultural.  He is a third worlder who has the metnality of the third world, which includes his burning desire to exact revenge on the US and the West for having shamed 'his people' with our freedom, creativity, productivity and advancement.  The Precedent sees himself as the avenging angel of the third world, brought to rain pain and destruction on the US - not to affect any great ideological change. 

He uses leftist ideology only because there are many useful idiots in the US who will jump on that specific mechanism for destroying our nation, but The Precedent cares little for leftist ideology, itself.  He made this perfectly clear when he said, during a primary debate, that he would still raise capital gains taxes, even if it was assumed that it would reduce receipts to the government.  The Indonesian said that it was more a matter of "fairness" - i.e. revenge.  He didn't care about getting more money, ostensibly for the poor, but only bringing pain to the wealthy and successful.

Guy Fawkes mentioned the key above.  It's not just that he's an alien to American culture and sensibilities, but that he is actively hostile to, and hateful of, us and our institutions and traditions.  Rabinowitz will move towards this in the next few months, I'm sure.  This article was an excellent first step, though.

Eventually, I would bet that Rabinowitz comes into contact with the simple and obvious fact that the very idea of dual citizens was abhorrent to the Founders and that there was no way they included American dual citizens in their classification of 'natural born citizens'.

Yeah.  I forgot to add it, but some of the clearest examples of how divorced from ideology The Precedent is was seen in how he let Congress take total control of all the "ideological" legislation and go hog wild.  That made it pretty clear that The Precedent didn't care what passed, or if anything passed.  He only wanted to gum up and ruin the legislative processes (which he did, spectacularly) and that, if the crap bills passed (which he had almost nothing to do with in the design) that would just be gravy for leading the US to ruin.  It's almost comical to look back on how he knew nothing about the bills he was shilling for in those hundreds of interviews and stump speeches.

53 I am glad Dorothy said it. Barry may be a U.S. citizen but he is not an American. As ridiculous as this sounds, he never made "turkey hands" in first grade around Thanksgiving time. He did not sit in a third grade class and learn about the Pilgrims and the Indians. He did not take the 8th grade trip to Washington, DC. I have to assume he did not sit in a US history class in high school because we have not seen his transcripts. I realize these are broad generalities but they point to important commonalities across US public education that an adult Obama's age should have had as part of being acculturated as an American.

57 I realize these are broad generalities but they point to important commonalities across US public education that an adult Obama's age should have had as part of being acculturated as an American.

Posted by: BigDaddy1964 at June 09, 2010 04:47 PM (pOcKt)

You hit the nail on the head.  He was acculturated as an Indonesian, which makes sense since that is where he spent the bulk of his formative years.  The toxic combination between doing pretty much all of his elementary school in post-coup Indonesia and the rabid commies who surrounded him for his entire life, there is almost nothing American that he ever seems to have come into contact with.  This was readily apparent by all of the odd, un-American mistakes and gaffes that he makes.  He has shown an inability to understand many normal, American idiomatic expressions, and he has made silly mistakes that no American would make - like the '57 states' idiocy.  The list of such examples is pages and pages long, which is why it was so impressive that the MFM could just ignore it all.

In the end, though, I'm convinced that most of America understood this and, in the throes of a psychotic break brought on by the credit crisis, actively decided to end it all by declaring national suicide with the election of this un-American, retarded third worlder who hates us and our nation.  For many, our national suicide was the ultimate penitance being paid for their illusory guilt and imposing psychosis.

While the credit crisis may have spooked many (I was in full frontal freak out but never thought Barry would handle it better than McCain), I do think many, many Americans were hoping for some level of absolution for our nation's original sin by electing him. I think many non-minority Americans wanted to show their fellow citizens that we are not racists. If that vote means people like Lt. Col. Allen West feel like they can be elected to high office, the people who voted for Obama, while causing us short term pain, may have unwittingly saved this country for the next several generations.

It was her support of Spitzer's licenses for illegals in one of the debates that doomed her.  That was it.  She won every actual primary election (the Indonesian Imbecile only won caucuses) but her numbers dove after that debate and the superdelegates held all the power in the Dems, anyway.  Her mention also killed Spitzer, whose approval rating went, overnight, from something like 70% to under 40% as people learned that he was trying to give illegals drivers licenses.

That was pretty much the last time that illegals were mentioned in the campaigns (primary and general).

64 For many, our national suicide was the ultimate penitance being paid for their illusory guilt and imposing psychosis.

For what it's worth, I don't think it's that bad.  You cannot forget that the overwhelming majority of the lefty base don't really "understand" politics.  Their views and votes are controlled by operant conditioning.

There was a huge contingent on the right who couldn't bring themselves to vote for McCain because he put precious little daylight between himself and Obama.

There was another chunk of otherwise-GOP voters who cast votes for Obama because of the color of his skin.  A lot of these were boomers whose impressions of civil rights were formed when the movement was still about combating injustice instead of today's movement that works tirelessly to impose injustice.

I think that McCain threw the damned election for whatever reason.

In spite of all of this, Obama won by a measly six percentage points.

The brainwashed will stick with Obama, but many of the people who outsourced their votes to conditioned party identification, cast "protest" votes for whatever reason, or stayed the hell home will be voting against Obama this fall.  And yes, I said "against Obama this fall" because that will be the central issue in every race for the midterms.

68 In what certainly seems like four score and seven years ago, American voters, deceived by a man of a true nature most foul and his media propaganda ministers, brought forth, upon this Nation, a profoundly warped man, conceived who knows where for certain, who is dedicated to the proposition that all men are created weak and subservient to his every insane will and whim.


Now we are engaged in a great battle, testing whether this nation, or any nation so burdened, and so assaulted, can long endure. We are met here on a great internet battlefield, with compatriots in the Tea Party Freedom Movement rallies, compatriots on the radio waves and Spartan Warriors in the Great State of Arizona, of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of our lives in  honor of our forefathers who dedicated their lives that this nation might live vigorous and free.
It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.


It is for us, the living, to be dedicated to the restoration of freedom, liberty, rule of law, progress and sanity which our Founders so nobly brought about. It is for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they so long ago gave the full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that our Founding Fathers shall not have labored in vain; that this nation shall have a rebirth of freedom and responsibility; and that this government will once again be of the people, by the people, for the people, and that we will not allow abominations like Barack Hussein Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and their gang of quislings to cause it, and it’s shinning light, to perish from the Earth.

That's certainly true, but I think they knew that this was not just a regular affirmative action vote.  They knew that this was a death vote.  I'm very much convinced of that.  People knew about Rev Wright.  They knew about Bill Ayers.  They knew about tons and tons of stuff.

The difference was that, after the credit crisis, people understood full well that this election wasn't about screwing around.  They understood that this nation was sitting on the precipice and could very easily be pushed over, which every policy embraced by BHO was directed towards - as with his idiocy about the Constitution and how the Warren Court wasn't radical or how he wanted to bankrupt the coal industry, etc.

I understand your point but I don't think that an affirmative action vote had anything to do with people like Col. West.  I think he might have been moved towards seeking office by seeing how un-American and destructive The Precedent is and what serious danger the US is in.  Other than that, I highly doubt that West ever doubted his ability to run a good race and possibly win - even in the district he's in.  But he knows how serious and important it is for people like him to get into office, now.  Serious defenders of America.

Rumor has it heÂ’s a cannoneer

HeÂ’s the annihilator of Muslim creeps with information on their lying at
his fingertips

They say heÂ’s nearly seven feet tall
And yet quite gracefulÂ…all in all
IÂ’m told there are lightning bolts when he walks
And thunder when he talks

Is he vulgarian or sleek?
Just what does he seek?
I hear heÂ’s steely as you please
I hear heÂ’s really Japanese

He may be shrewd
He may be rude
Ah well, itÂ’s hard to tell
Who is this Allen West, do tell?

The Muslims may think he comes from hell
But he may come from somewhere just around the dell
But he will be here and he will be there
You could see him giving Islam Hell most any time and most anywhere

He meddles with the Islamic Devolution
Stomping them mightily throughout each week
Spoiling every ImamÂ’s lying elocution
La, what cheek!

Yeah.  He sucked as badly as anyone could possibly suck.  He had the winning side of the credit crisis debate but refused to take it - instead, unleashing that idiotic idea during the debate to use TARP funds to pay everyone's mortgage, which left most people's jaws on the ground.  It is hard to express how deeply I despise McShame, especially since he understood how much power had just been handed to the Executive branch after the credit crisis and the TARP insanity and how much more important it was, than ever, to have someone in that office who actually cared about America and could be trusted.

Then the real killer was the Super Delegates.  Each super delegate vote counted many times the value of the normal delegates.

If I am not mistaken all the super delegates went to Obama.

If he didn't want it in his office,   it could have been sent to storage,  moved to Statuary Hall in the Capitol, placed in another room in the White House,  loaned to Joe Biden, placed in Blair House, or any one of a hundred other choices.

Instead,  with much fanfare,  he sent it back.  It was a rejection of British friendship, and more than that,  a rejection of the West,  for Churchill is one of the giants in modern Western history.

All that he does is geared to destroy this nation.  The Gulf Coast states are the latest victims.  He is purposefully dragging his feet on acting,  because the more that livelihoods are destroyed, the happier he is.

Everything he dos is destructive.  The stimulus was allowed to be so large because he knew it would cause trouble for our economy.  The best health care system in the world is to be destroyed.  Mines will be shuttered with his Cap and Trade.

I repeat what I said before:  He will not be happy until we are all wandering barefoot in rags across the countryside, fighting with dogs for scraps, and huddling in the dark and cold.

I believe he is evil.

93 To all the birthers and others offended by Ms. Rabinowitz's throwaway line: Shut the fuck up. This isn't about you and your ego, this is about us. Understand this: Obama isn't going to be impeached or removed because of his birth because (pick as many as you wish) 1) He was elected and sworn in as per the Constitution. 2) No court has the power to remove a sitting President (It's called seperation of powers and everyone rightly freaks when the courts presume to legislate) 3) This is the fucking presidency, you don't get mulligins. Nobody in their right mind wants to open the can of worms that would come from removing someone who acted as president for over a year. 4) President Joe Biden. Enough said. The Founders were great men, but they weren't perfect. Throughout history whenever we run into a boundry condition the Founders didn't anticipate or handle well we've had to suffer through until we got it fixed. This is one of the times we suffer. The fault lies in the line "Natural-born citizen." Nobody really knows what that means anymore. When it was written it was reasonable, since very few people traveled more than 100 miles from where they were born, and they certainly didn't do it more than once. However times have changed and crossing international borders is routine. We need to amend the Constitution to eliminate reference to birth and replace it with citizen and residency requirements. Say US citizen AND resident for 30 years (time while family is in military service counts). After all, there's not much developmental difference between someone born and raised in El Paso and someone born in Mexico and moving (legally) to Texas at age 5. While we're at it we might as well put in some verification rules as well. Once again, the birthers need to shut up. We're going to need a wide group of Americans to get this implemented and frankly, you creep people out. So, you can put your egos aside and quietly support the fixes (go ahead and tell yourselves you were right all along for all I care, but keep it quiet) or you can help ensure we don't fix a problem in the Constitution and let this happen again.

Oh, but Obama doesn't necessarily hold the most extreme views! No, not at all! How could he? Why, he's just so peaceable and moderate and warm and fuzzy, that he can hang around hateful wacko people for his whole life long and never be the least bit affected by them!

Obama's  policies are clearly designed to boost that 52% higher and higher.

His healthcare legislation was clearly sneaky, back-door reparations for certain minorities, a means to enslave them via their dependencies.

His determination to redistribute the wealth is clearly intended to attain and to consolidate power via a coalition of minorities, each with its own self-serving agendas, which will, collectively, become the majority; a majority comprised of a coalition of creeps, losers, misfits, fools, psychos, retards and perverts. 

The abolishment of political parties to institute a one party system in California is clearly a trial balloon to see if people are gullible enough, stupid enough and apathetic enough to let it fly.

 His alienation of democracies around the world is clearly intended to isolate us from the rest of the world until he can consolidate his power, and the list of his insideous schemes goes on and on.

It was an understatement when Miss Marple said that  he is "evil". He is the most dangerous threat that this country has ever faced.

99 36:

This is what was at the heart of the birther thang, at least for those that focus on the procedure of the requirement, and the purpose behind it, external from the Bamster - he does not identify as an American.  To put this in a way a lawyer like Barry would understand, he sees himself as a neutral arbitrator (judge) between America and X (Iran, China, etc.) rather than counsel for America, acting in OUR best interest. So, he comes out the gate with apologies from us for our behavior, how bad we are, etc. and UNDERMINES our position, when he should be strengthening it.  See, being the parents of commies, being raised Muslim early in life (he admitted this post-election) and being mentored by radical commie US haters (Frank Marshall Davis), and attending the church of said people (Rev. Wright), tend to make ya like that. 

That's why the Constitution requires natural born citizenship - so you grew up as an American with an American mindset.  Granted, that's harder to do these days due to international travel, where you can drop from the tw@t in the US and 2 months later be raised for 18 years in Kenya or Iran, etc. But the underlying theory is sound.

The problem for Barry - how do you lead a nation you are ashamed of?  Simple - you lead it off a cliff.

I also disagree that it Barry is "too principled" - he's disillusioned, or delusional and misinformed.
