We’re Not Worthy

Monday 5 August 2013 - Filed under Uncategorized

The real problem that we face as a nation is that by and large, we’re not worthy of our Dear Leader. Or so he says. Robert Fulford at The National Post:

Barack Obama is disappointed with the American people. They’re not up to his standards. He’s troubled by their inadequate values and their eagerness to make big money. He’s not at all pleased about the TV shows they watch.

U.S. infatuation with celebrity lifestyle killing the American dream: Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama has hit out at society’s infatuation with celebrity culture and suggested it might be killing the American dream.

In a wide-ranging interview, Mr. Obama also criticized a change in society he said had led to the wealthier elements feeling the need to engage in “conspicuous consumption.”

On Tuesday, Mr. Obama visited one of Amazon’s distribution centres in Chattanooga, Tenn., and sat down for an interview with David Blum, editor of Kindle Singles, a section that deals with short e-books.

In Chattanooga, TN, this week, when he sat down with David Blum to record an e-book interview for Amazon, he offered a critique of the American spirit in 2013.

At the relatively early age of 51, Obama has turned into a codger. He’s become, not physically but mentally, one of those geezers who sit on the porch and reminisce about the days when folks were much more sensible, the days when Obama and his generation were young. When kids knew how to do without and weren’t so demanding.

Yes. The problem with government isn’t those running it, elected after promising to fix everything. It’s with the heady subjects who just aren’t up to the standards of our leadership.
