The Kinetic Energy of Being Barry

Well Elite Members, you just can't make this stuff up, even my most hyperbolical self can not do it. President Obama returns from South America, where he promised to spend whatever federal funds Brazil needs to develop that nation's new oil fields, including in the Gulf of Mexico, and then gets filmed trying, but failing, to find an unlocked door on the Rose Garden Veranda that would admit him back into the White House. Either the Executive Mansion Staff acted stupidly, again, or this poor fellow has the worst Karma imaginable. Thank goodness this misbegotten President has not tried to tackle really big problems, say like starting another war in some far-off land in which America has seen no national security threats for more than twenty years.

Now, Libya is certainly not a full fledged war, YET; but our military intervention in this civil war, therefore, needs to be accurately identified as something compelling by the President in an Oval Office speech. The Commander-in-Chief has ordered large numbers of our men and women in the military to devote their combat efforts, including if necessary, their very lives to accomplish his mission in Libya. Now, let me assure you, the American public is not going to rally behind the Administration's undertaking "Kinetic Military Action" in Libya. While our superb military will fight and die in North Africa, it remains a national scandal that the current occupant of the White House refuses to inspire, empower and protect them (and our national conscience) by laying out why it is in our nation's vital interests to expend more treasure and spill more youthful blood on the shores of Tripoli. We all deserve better than an AWOL CinC.
