Sunday, November 22, 2009 THE REPORT FROM WASHINGTON Obama: Manchild in the promised land Exclusive: Ellis Washington explains deep-rooted cause for president's leadership style Posted: March 04, 2009 7:43 am Eastern By Ellis Washington
~ Rahm Emanuel, President Obama's chief of staff When I judge the Obama presidency I find it almost impossible to view Obama as a fully developed man. While this statement may be polemical to some, it isn't an original idea. It has been repeatedly stated by that great conservative intellectual, Dr. Michael Savage, who said regarding Obama, "The most important word a man can tell a boy he is trying to help become a man is, 'No.' All of Obama's life nobody has ever told him no."
In a UK Telegraph article by editor, Toby Harnden, titled, "Top 10 anti-Barack Obama conservatives":
We are hearing now from economic experts that President Obama has spent more taxpayer money in just five weeks than George W. Bush did during his entire eight years of freewheeling domestic spending, $2 trillion Wall Street bailout fiasco, as well as the exorbitant costs of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
Obama's actions are not by accident but by systematic design. Not only has Obama waged war on America's most sacred institutions – Christianity, free market capitalism, federalism and pro-life policies, he has waged war on the conservative movement and intends to make the Republican Party become the Whig Party of the 21st century. As part of his Machiavellian strategy, Obama's first cabinet pick was Rahm "dead fish" Emanuel as his chief of staff.
In November of last year Emanuel was rather candid in describing Obama's grandiose designs to remake America in his own Marxist image saying:
Emanuel's ideas above mimic FDR's utopian pretext of the Great Depression as a means to shove his leviathan government "New Deal" down America's throat. I have often stated in my own writings on law, politics and philosophy that before theory, before practice, there must be a pretext. Rahm Emanuel has clearly stated this shameless political pretext above. What is the "serious crisis" Emanuel doesn't want "to go to waste"? Well it's the downward spiral of economy. To a certified socialist like Obama who is a self-confessed admirer of FDR, a crisis, any crisis is like pure gold: misery = power.
Listen to Obama's speeches since he has become president. He is literally talking down the economy at every opportunity as a pretext to launch more government programs. If you doubt me, do a Google search of the phrases: "Obama, crisis" or "Obama, economic crisis" and you will literally get hundreds of thousands of hits: words from his own mouth. If you do a similar search of President Ronald Reagan and economic crisis, you'll get a lot of hits, but upon closer scrutiny few if any relate to Reagan running down the economy (or the country) from his own mouth. Reagan, unlike Obama, was a man who championed personal responsibility, economic freedom, boundless vision and optimism; not economic Marxism, and policies promoting pessimism, envy and legalized thievery.
(Column continues below) Back to Obama being an undeveloped man. You can see it in the manner he governs. You see this deficiency in his body language when confronted by men that disagree with him. Just beneath that suave, JFK demeanor lies an insecure, selfish, diminutive manchild who was never told "no." Like a spoiled brat child, Obama takes every policy disagreement as a personal insult.
Obama loves to give dictates, orders and commands. He doesn't want to hear the other side of the arguments or roll up his sleeves to do the necessary down and dirty work with his political opponents for real consensus building. No, no, no. Remember Obama's childish rant a few weeks before GOP leaders to negotiate the passage of his $1 trillion dollar economic stimulus plan, while the cameras were rolling Obama arrogantly shouted: "I won!" In other words negotiations are over. I am the man-child whom everybody loves and voted for. Do what I say, or I'm going to take my basketball and go home.
While I would expect this attitude from a little 12 or 13-year-old boy raised by a doting single mother in the ghetto or the Upper Eastside of Manhattan, I would not expect this childish view from the leader of the free world, yet the more we see and hear from this president the more we see that Obama is less a developed, secure man and more a manchild; a very myopic, immature little boy who hates to have his ideas challenged by any man.
In one of my first critiques of Obama, written six months before his inauguration, I expressed the following:
Like Obama, my father left me when I was very young (18 months), and I only saw him twice during my first 30 years of life. That said, I had read through enough biographies of great men and seen personally what happens to young boys who make the wrong life choices to realize that I had better seek out men in the community that could mentor me and teach me how to become a real man. Like millions of young black boys who grew up either without a father, or a father who was there in body, but due to a number of variables, failed to contribute meaningfully in the child's development, the boy-child is forced to collect de facto (unofficial, substitute) fathers as they grow up. Some of these associations may have been good and nurturing, but in Obama's case they were one of the following – negative or absent (Barack Obama Sr., grandfather Stanley Dunham), communist (Frank Marshall Davis), radical or anarchistic (Karl Marx, Saul Alinski, Woodrow Wilson, FDR, LBJ, Bill Ayers, Father Pfleger, Rev. Jeremiah Wright) and humanist academic (Professors Lawrence Tribe and Charles Ogeltree).
I clearly saw Obama, the candidate as Obama, the man-child in the promise land and wrote:
In conclusion, I truly believe Obama can become a failed one-term Jimmy Carter-figure only if a strong conservative man of moral, charismatic, intellectual and rhetorical skills can rise up and challenge Obama as a man. If that person can sustain this challenge to reveal Obama's false messiah façade and expose Obama the Manchild as the political fraud tens of millions of American citizens know him to be, then I believe like David brought down the imposing giant, Goliath, Obama the Manchild, along with his cradle-to-grave government controls over our lives can be exposed and defeated in the arena of ideas.
