— Ace I've previously mentioned my annoyance with Obama's baby-talk style of condescension to the American public.
On one hand, he demands that we be as high-minded and intellectual as he mistakenly conceives himself to be. But on the other hand, he doesn't trust us enough to speak to us like adults, and so he does what adults do to children when they wish to manipulate them: They lie. They make up magical elves like Santa Claus who keep naughty and nice lists.
They also say "Just because" a lot. "Just because" is something a child hears a lot, when he asks Why he's not allowed to play with something, or why he has to go to bed by 10pm.
Now there's a reason adults do this with children, of course: Because children actually are not mentally or emotionally advanced enough to understand abstract thinking, indirect cause and effect, risk vs. reward (like playing with the stove -- sure, if you do it right it'll be fine, but what are the odds a kid will avoid the burners?), tradeoffs, prioritization of moral goods, and so forth.
Children actually hate being condescended to like this, at least when they realize they're being treated like children, which is relatively early in their lives -- when they're still actually children, and fully deserving of a condescending attitude from their parents.
But adults? Adults hate it even more. Or at least they ought to hate it. But for some reason, Barack Obama has gotten away with lecturing and hectoring the adult American voting public for five years, lying to them, spinning childish fictions that he thinks will help them "understand."
Not understand the truth, mind you, but "understand" in the way a frustrated parent means it: A frustrated parent doesn't care if the kid really understands why he can't eat too much sugar -- at the end of the day, he really just wants the kid to comply with his directive.
And that's the sort of "understanding" Barack Obama offers the public-- not actual understanding of what Obamacare will do, and who it will harm, and what the actual goals of the policy are. But simply shutting the American Voting Children up, and getting them to comply, and just do what they're told.
Over at AdAge, Ken Wheaton discusses what he calls Obama's "Sesame Street" communications strategy.
Imagine you've tuned in to one of those classic "Sesame Street" episodes. Not one of those YouTube videos in which they spoof such child-friendly material as "Homeland" and "Breaking Bad," but one in which the younger monsters have been disturbed by something intense. So one of the human adults, Gordon perhaps, arrives at the scene to explain things in very simple language -- as one would to children who might have a hard time grasping complex, abstract concepts.Now, imagine that after Gordon finishes explaining that sometimes bad things happen to good people, Abby and Zoe, after looking at each other for a moment, turned to Gordon and said, "Are you kidding me with this bullshit?"
This is, in essence, what's happened with the Obama administration's laughable attempts to explain away the many problems it's experienced with the rollout of the Affordable Care Act. It's crisis communications via "Sesame Street."
That's not to say that Obama himself is a "Sesame Street" president. While there is something childish in his hopeful overtures to Iran, it's hard to conceive of Grover ordering drone strikes on Oscar the Grouch or Big Bird tapping Cookie Monster's phone.
But I do get the distinct impression, based on his communication strategy, that he thinks he's presiding over a country full of "Sesame Street" characters. And he's Gordon. He shows up, says, "Let me be clear," then walks off the stage -- the show's over before anyone starts asking really pesky questions.
So when Healthcare.gov imploded and the commotion didn't die down after a few days, Obama showed up in the Rose Garden to tell us that bad things sometimes happen and that he was just as mad as the rest of us. Actually, he was even madder than the rest of us. "Nobody is madder than me about the fact that the website isn't working as well as it should," he said. Then he promised to fix it with something called a "tech surge." So don't worry your silly little heads, kids, go off now and tickle Elmo or something, Luis is on the job.
But here's Obama's problem -- aside from the fact that the "adult" in this situation seemingly learned about these problems at the same time we did. Suddenly, Americans were no longer Elmo and Grover. They weren't even Oscar the Grouch. They'd jumped to "The Muppet Show" and gone all Waldorf and Statler on Obama.
Which might explain why there was something almost petulant about follow-up communications. Listen, Obama seemed to be saying, we tried our best. Isn't that good enough for you? No? Well, then we're sorry. Now, are you happy? No? And then they rolled out The Count to further explain the massive successes of the plan, but poor guy couldn't seem to count past 100.
That's the first half, before the "Just Words" halfway break; click on the link for the rest.
Compare with Arne Duncan's "Hush, stupid children" rebuttal to White Suburban Moms.
I didn't even realize, that's a triple insult, not just a double one. Stupid housewives! What do housewives and mere mothers know about education?!
Why, that's something for Men With Careers to handle.

Q: When you describe health care reform you don't -- understandably you don't talk about the sacrifices that Americans might have to make. Do you think -- do you accept the premise that other than some tax increases on the wealthiest Americans, the American people are going to have to give anything up in order for this to happen?
THE PRESIDENT: They're going to have to give up paying for things that don't make them healthier. And I -- speaking as an American, I think that's the kind of change you want.

And because many of those people are Liberal Democrats, who cannot connect their voting to anything that happens in life, they will continue to NOT find this insulting or belittling. Instead, they will feel awesomely awesome that their beloved deigns to speak to them. They can lose their jobs, their savings, their homes--all due to Democrat policies--and they will still swoon over whoever has a (D) after his or her name.

This is a very deliberate strategy, that has been suggested and designed by consultants and linguists like George Lakoff.
Obama is speaking to dumbed-down, public-skool-educated morons in the language that he knows they will understand and respond to. It's all about hitting the hot buttons.
This works until shit starts getting real and things get fucked up, like Obamacare. Then all of a sudden even the dumbasses want answers and they want to see some semblance of competence from their President - like that guy on The West Wing or the Prsdient in Independence Day. Abnd Obama ain't that guy. This is why his approval ratings are falling faster than Felix Baumgartner.

"You had a crappy plan, now shut up."
That kind of thing isn't muppet talk. It's a gotdamn attack on the rationality of individuals, citizens as thinking beings.
Further, the problem with Arne Duncan's response wasn't 'hush, children.'
He thought it was cool to respond with a racial slam. 'White, suburban moms.' Not just any old moms. CRACKAZ!
That the administration feels comfortable in using racist weaponry is the fucking problem.
Sure, it's just reflexive oikophobia. But it's 'only just' just before it becomes standard practice.

He said it back in July 2009. Which, in many ways, makes it fuckloads WORSE. Because he said it, went and got his bullshit "law" "passed," then went out on the campaign trail again to tell the world that they could keep their insurance and keep their doctor and everything would be great.

Like health insurance. Cuz, you know, I've been sick on and off a lot in my life, and not once did a piece of paper with "Health Insurance Policy" written on it come swooping into my room, wave a magic wand over my face and heal me. I bought medicine. I went to see doctors. I drank lots of fluids and ate chicken soup. So I'll pay for THOSE things, but he can keep his fucking insurance.

You are so right about the way TFG "talks" to us. Remember when the SCOAMF actually used the example of "sometimes you just have to eat your peas" when discussing his desire to increase taxes back in 2010/2011? Just thinking about that still pisses me off. I already have a daddy (who, btw, stayed, so suck it Barry). It offends me to have the POTUS speaking like that to me, but it apparently appeals to the arrested development portion of this nation.
(He also appeals to the stupid and the corrupt, but for other reasons).

Maybe it's just me, but...
While I admit that birth control might be convenient, I fail to see how it makes anyone healthier.
Quite the opposite, in fact, given that people are starting to take a closer look at some of the things that birth control pills might be doing over the long-term...

AoSHQ Rule #3: NEVER tell a woman she is too emotional to argue with & to calm down.

That's not particular to this site. It's called 'common fucking sense.' Or sometimes 'shit you learn after your first girlfriend.'

I gave up watching Choom Boy strut and preen at the very start of the 2008 campaign. I missed his "historic" act at the '04 Dem convention....
I can only Blame Modern American Racism -- the kind practiced by Eric Holder, Okrah, Al 'n' Jesse, et. al. -- for the fact that President Historic First© isn't in prison right now.
Well, in fairness, I must acknowledge the vital parts played by Bitch McConnell, John Boner, John McCain and damn near the entire "conservative" bloggysphere. Reid, Pelosi and the Choom Gang couldn't have done it without them.
But until I'm forced to sit in front of a telescreen at the Camp, I'm still not watching the treasonous shitweasel flap his yap.

The left has been wanting this to happen for some time now.
I've always prayed for Dear Leader's safety. And the main reason for that is that I don't want to hear about the martyrdom of our first half-black preezy for the next 50 years.
Can you imagine the MFM harangue if that ever happened?

I'm sure he followed that up with, "I especially like killing Americans, I can't wait to kill them with ObamaCare."

You expect a Kennedy to go to jail? I'm thinkin' the judge didn't tell the jury that ol' Mike was One of THOSE Kennedys....
Joe Senior would have been warming a cell early on in a just world. Not to mention Teddy and some of the newer ones.

Indeed, ruined pretty outfits are no fun.
I can work with sweats and a tee shirt. You'll have to let me bake while you clean though.
The free market and bartering and all that.

Agreed, Il Douche isn't Caligula. He's Nero. Followed by: "The Year of Four Emperors."
And there are currently four comets visible to the (aided) eye...

Maybe contempt. Maybe just signaling who his real audience is.

You'll have to be careful. Sometimes, when I'm shredding the carrots for my carrot cake, I'll donate the tops of my knuckles to the mix.
Also, I won't do laundry. Ever. Under any conditions.
I'll vacuum, make beds, clean bathrooms, cook and bake, but laundry is a nogo. So are dishes, now that I'm thinking about it .
