On "Burnishing" One's Credentials alá Barack Obama, the Best Dead-pan Joke of the Year
Speaking of political jokes, I've just gotta laugh at this one...
Barack Obama, a politician with no foreign policy experience and very little experience at all beyond local Chicago Machine politics, is going on a whirlwind trip across the Middle East and Europe, beginning with a short stay in Afghanistan and perhaps Iraq, then back like a rocket to America, in an effort to "burnish his foreign policy and national security credentials."
If Obama's knowledge of national security and foreign policy is so shallow that he believes a one week tour on the international "chicken circuit" will turn him into an expert in conducting foreign policy, then he is patently unprepared for the responsibilities of the office of President of the United States of America.
I'm not certain I would brag about "burnishing" or "bolstering" my foreign policy and national security credentials if the only experience I had was a one-week whirl-wind tour of Afghanistan, Israel and Western Europe.
For Obama to claim that this trip burnishes his foreign policy credentials is like him visiting a hospital to get his picture taken with a bunch of doctors and then proclaiming himself ready to perform brain surgery.
I don't doubt he feels the need to do something to shore up his credentials as a possible World Leader considering his complete lack of qualifications for the office he seeks, but traveling to the Middle East to suck up to Ehud Olmert and Mahmoud Abbas, then to Europe to suck up to the Germans and the French, will only emphasize just how inexperienced he is.
It looks more like a glorified photo-op for him with world leaders and the troops so he can cut more deceptive advertisements portraying him as being. Obama is banking on attracting large crowds of screaming European supporters to make him appear qualified to serve as president.
Such crowds might qualify him as a rock-star or a movie-star, but it does nothing to legitimize his candidacy. Too bad for him those European crowds can't vote (good for us though, look at the mess they've made of their own countries).
This election presents the most clear-cut case of experience vs. inexperience America has faced in over a century. Among all of their possible nominees for President Democrats had to choose from, Barack Obama was and is the least qualified to sit in the White House.
There is nothing in his background to qualify him for the Presidency.
In spite of his 12 years of national political experience, Dan Quayle was universally condemned by Democrats and the Liberal media as lacking sufficient experience to serve as Vice President of the United States of America. If Dan Quayle was under-qualified to serve as Vice President, what does that make Barack Obama, a joke?
As the Junior Senator from Illinois, Barack Obama has the distinction of having served only slightly more than 2 years in the senate before he formed his presidential campaign's exploratory committee. Democrats must have one heck of a sense of humor to put forward this less than stellar talent as their best and brightest.
His inexperience shows every time he "refines" his stand on key issues facing the American people. It has led to some interesting self-contradictory statements as he has tried to placate his extreme Left-wing base while portraying himself as a mainstream politician.
This vacillation is largely a product of the inconsistency of his outwardly proclaimed "moderate" stand on issues with the extreme Left-wing nature of his core beliefs. It gets very difficult after a time to remember what lies you have told and to attempt to remain consistent in your statements.
In playing to the Middle, Barack has had to abandon every one of his fundamental anti-war, anti-military, and anti-capitalist beliefs.
You can't make a silk purse out a sow's ear, but Democrats and the mainstream media are trying. This will be the most covered non-event in this election cycle and the press is planning to play up Obama's trip as giving him legitimacy in matters of national security and foreign policy.
Make believe president is a dangerous game for America to be playing during this time of continued terrorist threats both hear at home and abroad.
John McCain may be the worst choice for president Republicans could have made this year, but compared to Obama, he is far more knowledgeable on the most important matters a president might have to face and he is the only remaining candidate qualified to occupy the White House.
Barack Hussein Obama is not the most difficult politician to lampoon, Liberal comedians' claims to the contrary notwithstanding, his very candidacy is a joke.
If American wants to elect a "black president," there are many far more qualified politicians available in both parties than Mr. Obama. That Democrats have chosen Barack Obama to carry their banner, says a lot about what they think of the American electorate.
Obama is the definition of superficiality in a candidate. A glib tongue, slick patter, and good looks, are not the qualifications for which I look in selecting a president. If the Liberal media spent one-tenth the effort in examining Barack Obama's candidacy that it did in attacking Dan Quayle, Obama would be back in the senate casting appallingly Liberal votes in support of more governmental control of American's lives...come to think of it, perhaps it's a good thing that he has spent so little time pursuing his senatorial obligations.
Barack Obama may be the best answer Democrats have, but one must wonder what question was asked of them...maybe it was a challenge to Democrat Party leaders..."Who do you think is the most unqualified person we could run for the presidency?"
Long Live Our American Republic!!!

There is nothing in his background to qualify him for the Presidency.
- He's never run a large organization, in fact he has no managerial experience whatsoever.
- He's never served in the military and has, for the most part worked in direct opposition to our national security needs.
- He has no foreign policy experience.
- He has virtually no legislative experience.
