His doctor asked President Obama to cut down on his drinking. My question, what’s he been smoking.

By Rachel Peepers

While a reefer or two doesn’t put you on the road to madness, by the same token, Obama’s inability to stop drinking and smoking shouldn’t compel Presidential cabinet members to make a mad dash for the Constitution’s 25th amendment.

However, considering President Obama’s growing propensity to exhibit obsessive, bizarre behavior, not to mention, a lackluster job performance, should not someone seriously question his (how shall I put it?) smokey thinking? Mental fitness for the job, if you will. Moreover, since it appears that the members of Congress seem to have difficulty taking action without being offered a carrot the size of the Louisiana purchase or the 100 million dollar Cornhusker kickback, the people appear to be faced with a national conundrum; what to do if we agree that the Presidential Marlboro Man, (aka Mr. roll em’ if you got em’) is smack dab in the center of the swirling question: Is President Obama delusionally disordered?.

At the same time, I can hear people saying that everything he does, he does with undeniable, clear-minded intention, the single minded determination of a lion stalking his prey. They would say about Obama that having a deep unshakable belief in the Saul Alinsky, “Rules for Radicals” playbook accounts for every untruth uttered; every promise broken; every anti-American-valueless move made. Maybe that’s true. Matter of fact, lil’ ol’ blond haired blued Rachel has been a party to that line of thinking for the past two or so years. Heavens to Betsey, I knew he was the most left voting member of the Senate. I knew he palled around with Rashid Khalidi, an Israeli-hating former member of the PLO. I knew he palled around with Bill Ayers who, at a point in time, would have bombed America into oblivion if he could have. I’m aware, like everyone else, that Obama pewed with Mr. Hate Speak, himself, the Rev. Jeremy (9/11 was a glorious day) for more than twenty hate-filled years. I knew all that and still thought Obama didn’t markedly deviate from the standard deviation of normal mental Chicagoian chicanery.

As of a week ago, though, I think we were wrong. I look at Obama differently. I fear he’s gone off the deep end. Jumped the shark. Lost his grip on reality. To my way of thinking, the guy who since being elected President has done the opposite of what he should have done; plus the opposite of someone who took an oath to “faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and to the best of my ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” is now borderline certifiable. He’s turned out, in just 13 plus months to be the worst President in United States history. Not arguably to be. To be. But I’m seriously thinking a big part of the problem is that President Obama is disordered and delusional. Sick.

A quick look at the rise before the pall. Were there tell tail signs that we all missed?

During the Presidential campaign against McCain, Obama made some statements that, while many believed, some suspected came under the category of campaign rhetoric. End earmarks. Put healthcare negotiations on CNN. Do away with America’s nuclear arsenal. Be the post-racial President. Fundamentally transform America. Be transparent. Listen to the American people. Those were the ingredients with which Barack Obama made speeches. Women fainted in his very presence. Anchor men got tingles up their legs. Then Obama was elected and elected to go back on his word, time after time. Not just his supporters became increasingly unsettled. His opponents were amazed that a brown eyed handsome man with sky high approval ratings could fall so far so fast. Obama started losing trust with the suddenness that some men start losing their hair. But not the concern. People like Nancy Pelosi tried to white wash the whole thing. For example, when asked why the President signed bills with thousands of earmarks, she’d say, “during a campaign, a lot of things are said.” Okay, so Obama’s end to earmarks statement was campaign rhetoric. Were we to assume that the same was true of, say, the statements about broadcasting healthcare negotiations on CNN? Was he just making things up willy nilly? If so, why? Barack knew that George senior’s “read my lips” sunk George. Why would Barack set a trap for himself? It doesn’t make sense.

In particular, though, the statements about Obama’s desire for nuclear disarmament, once sounding a tad naive, in retrospect, are the breadcrumbs leading to an inescapable conclusion: that Obama is daft. What good is a socialist America in the image and likeness of Obama/Alinsky if half its people are vaporized in a first strike? Surely, Obama wouldn’t unilaterally dismantle our nuclear capability. “Like, man, he’s not crazy,” I can hear any discerning California Democratic surfer guy or girl say.

Obama may be a little extreme left, but his elevator still stops at all the floors, or so I used to think. In hindsight, should I have detected a bit of unsoundness of mind when Obama unilaterally threw Turkey and the Czech Republic under the Russian bus, surrendering to blowhard, bully boy demands and reneging on the promise to install, for them, missile defense systems?  While hindsight is 20/20, maybe I should have caught wind of the coming mental storm clouds.

Now, though, I’m giving our President’s sanity a bit more thought. For the other crazy shoe just dropped. Obama pipes up with a nutty statement about meeting with Robert Gates to discuss destroying half our nuclear arsenal. On its face maybe it doesn’t sound too threatening, (how many times can you kill your enemy?), but the psychological effect on Iran, North Korea, Russia, China and assorted nut job terrorists around the world shouldn’t be underestimated. What weak loons they must think we are to unilaterally ash can half our nuclear weapons? Plus, consider how close our potential enemies are from their own missile defense shield. I have a feeling secret-guarding isn’t high on Obama’s list of priorities.

Look, I could recite chapter and verse Barack’s list of intolerable acts. But in the interest of time, I won’t. Suffice to say, it grows longer as Obama, once again, blithely, goes against the wishes of the American people to keep our country Army Strong. Instead of maintaining a full arsenal of military deterrents, Obama apparently wants to transform the United States into a nuclear free zone. Which is not to be confused with a nuclear safe zone. To Rachel, this is almost like touching the third rail of a second avenue New York subway train. On purpose. Is he touched?  Better question, what’s going on in ObamaHead? Sheer lunacy? Has President Barack Obama lost his marrididdles, cat’s eyes, and taws?

In wartime, there was never a sounder mind than General George Patton. Here’s what General Patton believed (not a direct quote). “Disarmament is the sure road to health, happiness, and peace; and that by removing the fire department, we will remove fires. The desire for disarmament springs eternal in the eternally naive. From wishful thinking and from the erroneous belief that wars result from logical processes. There is no logic in wars. They are produced by madmen much like disarmament is promulgated by men who are in the mentally sense, mad.  No man can say when future madmen will reappear. I do not say that there will be no more wars; I devoutly hope that there will not, but I do say that the chances of avoiding future wars will be greatly enhanced if we are ready.”

My one final question echoes Patton’s call for readiness. But it is about you and me. Are we ready to admit that there is something very wrong with Obama?

  1. We all feel very sorry for those that now feel very sorry for voting for his very sorry ass.

    Too bad so many people couldn’t hear the anti-White-capitalist-Christian-American-human views he expressed long before his election. Many still don’t. Some never will.

    Presenting the drug-induced insanity theory serves only to salve the hollow feeling one has after realizing they have been ripped off.

    All old news Miss Peepers. Meet the muslim, coke-head communist homosexual monster that is the very face of evil. Things are much more horrible than you can imagin.

    Did I mention that I’m a pale-faced, blue-eyed, blond-haired devil boy? Well, I am. So there.

  2. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:  Obama and the Democrats are acting as if they already know that elections this year and beyond, if they take place at all, will more resemble those held in Venezuela of late than anything we might expect.

    Somebody will use the phrase “tin-foil hat” in a later comment, to which I now pre-emptively play the “head-in-the-sand” card.

  3. Rachel, your logic is impeccable. Unfortunately for these great United States, Mr. Obama did have the presence of mind at one point in the past 18 months to do something that would ensure that, should anyone question his sanity or suitability for the highest office in the land, they would do so for, at most, a few moments, and then abandon the thought in horror at the consequences. The act I refer to, of course, was his selection of Joe Biden as his running mate and successor. Joe is simultaneously assassination insurance and insurance against the invocation of the other, more interesting provisions of the 25th Amendment. As bad as Obama is, Biden would be much worse, and Obama knows that we all know that.

  4. Old joke updated: 
    Barack and Michele, on holiday, pull into a gas station on the outskirts of Chicago. The guy pumping gas turns out to be one of Michele’s old boyfriends.  Barack says to Michele: “See, if you’d stayed with him, you’d still be in Chicago”.  Michele replies: “No, if I’d stayed with him, he’d be the President”.

    If you get my drift.

  5. “As bad as Obama is, Biden would be much worse”.  I doubt that; he hasn’t the smarts to be as lethal as Obama. Further, he’s at least AMERICAN in attitude and provenance, and thus would be approachably on the same planet - a significant difference to the present alien visitor from outer space.

    (One wonders what Biden thinks of (a) Obama and (b) his own position - if he thinks at all).
