Pipsqueak Politics of Protocol Pamper Prez

How many in America last night were hoping against all hope that—protocol or not—one of the newly elected Republicans would call out Obama for what he is, the main force of destruction taking down America?

Did any one who voted for her groan in despair when Iowa Senator Joni Ernst urged Obama to “craft a comprehensive plan to defeat terrorists”?

OMG!  It is Obama who is setting free suspected 9/11 masterminds from Guantanamo Bay;  who imperviously traded off five—count ‘em—top Taliban generals for a deserter, details of which are still hidden from public scrutiny, and Obama who leaves America’s southern border open to potential jihadists who go hither and yon with full freedom-of-movement privileges.

How’s THAT for crafting “a comprehensive plan to defeat terrorists, Sen. Joni?

We know, we know, protocol is in order at all State of the Union addresses and that the newly-minted Iowa Senator is only two weeks old.

But now that Joni & Company are the majority, couldn’t one of them have shouted from the floor to Majority Speaker John Boehner: “Hey dummy, why are you sitting there clapping for Obama like the proverbial slap-happy seal?”

This is a real country with real live people and not an ongoing poker game being played out by well-heeled politicians, they could have reminded him.

Instead the message from last night’s State of the Union address was “Obama’s going to finish off a bleeding America over the next two years, and the Republicans are going to help him do it!”

We heard warmed over political pap from Ernst that “Republicans controlling Congress will focus on people’s concerns about jobs and health care and steer the country away from President Barack Obama’s failed policies”.

Really?

When?

How ya’ gonna’ do that, Republicans, when there will be no jobs left in Obama’s Fundamental Transformation of America; when not a single Repub thus far has had the stones to put the brakes on ObamaCare or ‘Executive Amnesty’?

They still don’t get it: America doesn’t need political words and promises.  It needs rescuing.

“Ernst’s speech marked her party’s first State of the Union response during the Obama presidency in which the GOP has had majorities in both the House and Senate. It came as Republicans are hoping to expand their appeal among women and minorities in advance of the 2016 presidential and congressional elections. (AP, Jan. 20, 2015)

“We plan to make Washington focus on your concerns again,” she said. “We heard the message you sent in November, loud and clear.”

We’re not hearing any loud cheers now, particularly among women and minorities, already all but owned by Obama and the Democrats.

The only good thing coming out from the poker game of bluff called American politics is that it is now being played out to an empty theatre, not just narcissistic show-off BHO, but the entire Congress is playing out to an empty theatre.

It’s a staged fight between an empty suit and another one that folded from the get-go.

That leaves the fate of not just millions of disenfranchised Americans, but millions of lovers of liberty worldwide depending not on fleeting politics, but Divine Providence and Natural Law, the same ones that have kept this planet going for centuries, that still is and still will.

Last night that squeal was already an inconsequential squeak.

Obama, the world’s biggest poker player,  is bluffing, as only a madman could believe that he has the power necessary to destroy all that the Creator has created.

Meanwhile all Ernst, who delivered her party’s first State of the Union response during the Obama presidency in which the GOP has had majorities in both the House and Senate, proved is that nothing’s changed.

Out on the campaign trail, Ernst found the public spotlight for a campaign ad in which she spoke of her experience castrating pigs and vowed to use that attitude against big spenders in Washington, saying “Let’s make them squeal”.

Last night that squeal was already an inconsequential squeak.

Congress has been co-opted by Obama, but for We the People it is still “In God we trust”.
