Barack Obama is everywhere.
There's no escape.
If you turn on the tube, there he is.
He's always speechifying. He's always lecturing. He's running the perpetual campaign.
If you think you can escape by turning on entertainment shows, like Fox's "America's Most Wanted," think again.
Tonight he will appear on that show's 1,000th episode to tell you and host John Walsh what a great job he and his administration are doing fighting crime in America.
Obama is not America's most wanted leader – and that's why he's saturating the airwaves with himself.
But "crime-fighter" is not the association most of us make with Obama. It's more like "job-killer." It's more like "wealth-destroyer." It's more like "crisis-creator."
Maybe you're curious about how Obama has fought crime.
Actually, he is stepping up another wholly unconstitutional approach begun during Bill Clinton's administration – co-opting with money and equipment state and local law-enforcement agencies that are supposed to be independent of federal authority and control.
He'll also discuss the impact "America's Most Wanted" has had on "thousands of victims and millions of people in its 22 years on the air."
Give us all a break!
This is not only undignified, it's overkill.
If Obama wants to fight crime, he can start by following the law himself – namely the supreme law of the land, the Constitution.
Why would Americans want to listen to the scofflaw-in-chief pride himself and his administration on crime-fighting? It literally boggles the mind.
And, make no mistake about it, that's what Obama is – from the health-care power grab to cap-and-trade, to stimulus spending to taking over part of the auto industry to the bailouts of banks – his solution to problems real and imaginary is always a grab for federal and presidential power.
This is the real crisis in America – illegal government.
The criminals are in power. Obama's not fighting crime; he's da capo dei capi – boss of all bosses.
Maybe next he'll be a guest on "The Sopranos."
Worse than anything, America needs a TV show that reveals the real danger to a free society – encroaching government, the subversion of individual rights, the usurping of state and local authority.
America's founders knew the real danger to liberty is always posed by government – first and foremost. That's why they strictly limited the power of the federal government. That's why they took the shackles off the people and placed them intentionally on the government. That's what the Constitution truly is – a profound and clear statement on the limitations of government power and a profound and clear statement on the inalienable rights of citizens.
Today we've got it all backward.
And the biggest cheerleader for this corruption of the rule of law is Barack Obama.
So, laugh if you want about Obama's appearance tonight on "America's Most Wanted." It really is funny in a perverse kind of way.
But also understand his modus operandi.
The man who reveals nothing about himself hides in plain sight by being everywhere.
It's quite a strategy.
Tonight he reaches out to the lowest common denominator in the public on an entertainment show guised as a public service.
I won't be watching.
I can't take it anymore.
I can't turn on the television without seeing him, hearing him proclaim himself the authority on all things – the man with all the answers.
Now he's going to tell millions of people what a great crime-fighter he is. He will appeal to people without any discernment, without any sense of history, without any appreciation for the irony that he is the No. 1 lawbreaker in the country preaching about crime-fighting.
Do you believe this?
Can you just step back for a moment and ponder this audacity?
