Keeping track of obama's developing legacy:
1. The eternal campaigner. obama is a one trick pony. It is clear that he has only one skill: running a political campaign. We can all depend on obama hitting the campaign trail, jet-setting all over the place with his fleet of air force ones, to give us the political slogan and jargon of the day. Of course, biden reserves the right to follow like a spotlight- jealous lapdog in his own (slightly smaller) air force two. obama leaves all that overrated leadership and governing stuff to the liberal leadership of the congress so he can wash his hands of any culpability of partisanship, and eventual policy failure, in the proverbial water of the adoring media.
2. Dishonesty. One thing we can all depend on when we hear obama speak: is that he means the opposite of what he says. In fact, when he says the process will be open and transparent, we should all understand that he will do his best to make sure that we are mislead, kept in the dark, and told outright lies because, as schumer assured us, the American people don't care.
3. Lack of fear of failure. obama does not fear the economic or political failure of his policies, because his real goal is the financial enslavement of American citizens through creation of a mountain of debt that we will never be able to overcome.
4. obama's need to feel revered like a god. Even if he does not survive to be re-elected, the effect of his policies, eternal debt and financial burden, will live on for generations.
