PETER KATT: OBAMA AS CHAUNCEY GARDNER?
http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/obama-as-chauncey-gardner?f=puball
The Obama created invasion on the southern border, refusal to do anything about it and moving the illegals around the country against the wishes of nearly everyone as caused nearly unprecedented bewilderment.
The events of bordergate are causing Obama’s Democrat politician support and voter popularity to plummet. This is substantially increasing the chance for a big Republican congressional pick-up. If Republicans win a senate majority, both houses can strategically pass legislation supported by their base and independents. Obama will veto, using his pen of course. This can damage the Democrat brand for 2016. A combination of a big Republican 2016 turnout to vent anger at Obama and depressed black turnout gives the Republicans a very good chance of winning the presidency. Why is Obama pursuing this border fiasco?
I believe there are three possibilities. One that is probable, another that is interesting and a third hold on to your seat explanation. The probable reason is that in the end Obama turns out to be just a narcissistic light weight with far more self-confidence than intellect. That he has made it this far is due to the MSM that has traits. As Rush and Mark Levin have repeatedly stated, without the MSM being co-conspirators, Obama would never have been elected in the first place, or at the very least re-elected. The only benefit to his presidency in this light is for Jimmy Carter moving up from the bottom of the heap.
The interesting explanation is Machiavellian. Obama / Democrats are playing a long game by taking the heat now of seeding America with many more Latino voters (amnesty / citizenship for those in the shadows and increasing the numbers by the illegal invasion). The border debacle will substantially increase the chances of their losing the 2016 presidential election. But with the Mr. Magoo RINOs’ assistance, immigration reform will pass resulting in a large increase in Latino voters heavily favoring Democrats (who knew). Democrats will climb out of political purgatory starting in 2018, take the presidency in 2020, ignore the RINO favored portions of immigration reform and not lose another election for “fill-in-the-blank” years.
Inherent in this set-up is Obama knowingly and willingly taking the blame for the border disaster and leaving the stage as a discredited figure while knowing in his Alinsky-heart that this is a small sacrifice to witness the final dissolution of any vestiges’ of a constitutional, free market capitalist America.
The third alternative takes us into Dr. Strangelove territory. The border Obama stratagem is to taunt and enrage citizens and militias, provoking them into a confrontation with the Fed immigrant herders that results in Fed casualties (Remember the Maine). Obama, hiding behind a law having no application to the crisis he set in motion, ignores popular sentiment and many Democrats and invokes martial law under the NDRP. If Obama’s burning desire for revenge against the founding of America resides in the insanity realm, he could order incredible carnage before being stopped.
The odds do seem to favor Obama the great pretender.
(Trivia question – has any other political piece included two Peter Sellers’ movie analogies?).
