We hear the cry’s of foul from citizens throughout the
country. We see timelines and charts of Barack Obama’s rise to the Presidency.
Talking heads throw out names of Obama’s past associates and current friends,
either with disdain (FOX News) or pride (MSNBC). But let’s play with this a
little.
Suppose you and I are on the hiring board of a major
business. We are looking for a new, dynamic, star in the business world. We
need a fresh approach to our business because what we have been doing lately is
getting us into financial trouble. Several names are in the hopper and we are
going over each one carefully. The next candidate’s info sheet is passed out
and each of us read the background report. After we each look up from the
document, the person who suggested this candidate is ready to field questions.
Q Where are his college transcripts?
A: He prefers not to show them to us.
Q: Where are the listings of his experience in the business
world?
A: His past business experience is so limited; we decided
not to list it.
Q: Then, at least, tell us about his successes. What other
businesses has he saved?
A: Well . . .none, yet. But we hope that if he gets another
chance, he might be successful.
Q: Well then, how did this person’s application ever get to
our desk?
A: Well, we were looking for someone unlike anyone else. He
claims he can change things from the way they are now to something he says will
transform everything in our business.
Q: Well then, at least let’s check out his references . . .
ok?
“Sure, no problem, here is a list of three people that he
has known as good friends for many years.”
- Reverend
Jeremiah Wright, his pastor for 20 years who espouses hatred for
- Bill Ayers, self-proclaimed Communist who blew up government buildings in the early 70’s
- Tony Rezko, corrupt financier with ties to terror financing
“Are you crazy?” No one in their right mind would hire
someone with no experience, no credentials and such friends as these shady
characters!”
And so it goes . . . .

Well done, Chuck. I have tried this line of reasoning for nearly 5 years and I am astounded at the number of liberals, some who are long time friends, who call me a racist for even asking this type of question. It really is as simple as you stated. The guy is not fit to run a McDonald's let alone the most important country in the world (well, except for China. I'm sure China thinks they are the most important)
Well put Sir .... Concise and forcefully expressive.... and so true.
