Barack Obama and the CIA: why does President Pantywaist hate America so badly?

If al-Qaeda, the Taliban and the rest of the Looney Tunes brigade want to kick America to death, they had better move in quickly and grab a piece of the action before Barack Obama finishes the job himself. Never in the history of the United States has a president worked so actively against the interests of his own people – not even Jimmy Carter.



Obama’s problem is that he does not know who the enemy is. To him, the enemy does not squat in caves in Waziristan, clutching automatic weapons and reciting the more militant verses from the Koran: instead, it sits around at tea parties in Kentucky quoting from the US Constitution. Obama is not at war with terrorists, but with his Republican fellow citizens. He has never abandoned the campaign trail.



That is why he opened Pandora’s Box by publishing the Justice Department’s legal opinions on waterboarding and other hardline interrogation techniques. He cynically subordinated the national interest to his partisan desire to embarrass the Republicans. Then he had to rush to Langley, Virginia to try to reassure a demoralised CIA that had just discovered the President of the United States was an even more formidable foe than al-Qaeda.



“Don’t be discouraged by what’s happened the last few weeks,” he told intelligence officers. Is he kidding? Thanks to him, al-Qaeda knows the private interrogation techniques available to the US intelligence agencies and can train its operatives to withstand them – or would do so, if they had not already been outlawed.



So, next time a senior al-Qaeda hood is captured, all the CIA can do is ask him nicely if he would care to reveal when a major population centre is due to be hit by a terror spectacular, or which American city is about to be irradiated by a dirty bomb. Your view of this situation will be dictated by one simple criterion: whether or not you watched the people jumping from the twin towers.



Obama promised his CIA audience that nobody would be prosecuted for past actions. That has already been contradicted by leftist groups with a revanchist ambition to put Republicans, headed if possible by Condoleezza Rice, in the dock. Talk about playing party politics with national security. Martin Scheinin, the United Nations special investigator for human rights, claims that senior figures, including former vice president Dick Cheney, could face prosecution overseas. Ponder that – once you have got over the difficulty of locating the United Nations and human rights within the same dimension.



President Pantywaist Obama should have thought twice before sitting down to play poker with Dick Cheney. The former vice president believes documents have been selectively published and that releasing more will prove how effective the interrogation techniques were. Under Dubya’s administration, there was no further atrocity on American soil after 9/11.



President Pantywaist’s recent world tour, cosying up to all the bad guys, excited the ambitions of America’s enemies. Here, they realised, is a sucker they can really take to the cleaners. His only enemies are fellow Americans. Which prompts the question: why does President Pantywaist hate America so badly?

I dont think of it as revenge by the left, its more about getting our country back to the moral high ground. This is just right wing sensationalism..

Also would like to point out a lie amoungst many.. we were attacked after 911.....

Anthrax anyone? Traced to our military? who recalls this scare tactic?



Kirk, Robert doesnt like the telegraph, perhaps you have another source for him?

right on,.
very true,. FBI spied on tea parties,.

http://www.therightperspective.org/2009/04/21/fbi-spied-on-tea-parties/

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) conducted a clandestine monitoring operation on last week’s Tea Party protests, filming and cataloging the hundreds of thousands of Americans who acted on their First Amendment right to Free Speech.

Finally... we agree! ;)
I believe Obama outlawed torture because it is not what he believes America stands for, not out of some partisan act of revenge.
Similarly, I believe Bush invaded Iraq not for revenge for what nearly happened to his Daddy, or for the oil, but because he truly believed it was a Good Thing and that America could make a difference.

That makes me one of the few people that believe some politicans still very occasionally act out of a sense of "what is right" rather than "what's in it for them" (or their country).

I like your little NVA guy.....cute.

SJJ, I agree with you on the high level statement.

Sadly, it's easier to demonize your political opponent if you can demonstrate that his motives are malicious.

President Obama does not hate America, that's not what motivates his policies.

But he does envision a very different nation than I do. I want an America where everyone has an equal opportunity to prosper. the President seems to want an America where everyone prospers equally.

And that is it in a nut shell. Jay, you sure you're a real attorney....such succinctness isn't an often known merit of them.
But I would offer the substance of the BHO agenda while perhaps not malicious, will have consequences so profound that the hurt will exist despite any malice. I don't think FDR polices were malicious but we still deal today with the unintended consequences...frivilous subsidies long ago out grew their purpose and at the same time continue to suck from the taxpayers.

There...I fixed it for you Jay...a little more accurate. Spread the misery will be the outcome of trying to "spread the wealth."
