So far, my analysis of this year’s State of the Union Address has discussed two of President Obama’s three distinct Personalities: The Entertainer and the Politician. Today’s deals with the most disturbing and frightening of all: The Dictator. Please realize that I do not use this term lightly, and I realize how quickly the knee-jerk [...]

I began my analysis of this year’s State of the Union Address and made the statement that the Speech revealed three distinct Personalities of President Obama: The Entertainer, the Politician and the Dictator. Today, we’ll talk about the second of these Personalities and what he said really means. But before I do, as always, I’m [...]

Last year, my analysis took three parts to go through all of the President’s annual State of the Union Address in order to do it justice. This year, apparently, will be no different, but the headers will be. You see, last year’s analysis included THE GOOD, THE BAD, and THE UGLY. This year, however, we [...]

You know, I was planning on going through the President’s Rose Garden Speech, but after nearly four pages of dissecting lies, misrepresentations, and redundant generalities, I gave up.

Not to read it, not to discuss it, [...]

“You should pass this bill right away.” Seven little words. If there’s anything to be taken from the President’s speech on September 8, 2011, it is this little phrase, and the very clear pressure that it represents. Throughout the President’s speech, the urgency of passing the “American Jobs Act” as quickly as possible has been [...]

The President spoke at a Press Conference on Wednesday, 6/29/2011. By now, the odds are pretty good that you’ve either heard the speech, heard ABOUT it from whatever source you choose for your news & opinions, or, perhaps, are completely unaware that he spoke or what he spoke about. If you want to read his [...]

On June 8, I posted an argument for the withdrawal of American Troops from Afghanistan along with the statement that “I AM NOT A WARMONGER.” (I’m not. As I’ve said before, I’m pretty much AGAINST any war except as a final and unavoidable response to a direct threat to the United States.) Our current President, [...]
