CHICAGO — So far, the sky has not opened, the light has not come down, and no celestial choirs have showered President Obama in song.
No, it isn't a video from Comedy Central or Saturday Night Live. Or that Colbert jerk with the glasses. It is the hilarious video from the National Republican Senatorial Committee mocking the President's prospective 2012 re-election bid. Jon Stewart, eat your heart out.
Great parody is rooted in the truth and, with this video spoof, it appears that Republicans are finally finding their funny bone and, with it, President Obama’s real sore spot.
The Republicans are right: It isn’t just Obama’s failed $821 billion stimulus, his dithering in the Middle East, hypocrisy on Libya after his “principled” opposition to George Bush on Iraq, and his avalanche of broken campaign promises that has put Obama’s re-election at risk. It is the fantasy he lives in.
It is the folly of his vision and socialist worldview.
A world view that believes you can spend your way to prosperity. That you can grow an economy through wealth distribution. That you can mandate nationalized healthcare and pretend you aren’t forcing people to buy health insurance and eliminate their choices. That you can replace oil with windmills. If renewable rainbow energy actually existed, it would be part of Obama’s 2012 presidential platform.
That is President Obama’s real problem. He does not live in the real world. And, because he doesn’t live in the real world, he can’t solve real world problems.
Any more than a low-emission unicorn.
