Obama
To really understand Obama and his administration (progressives) you need to understand their alienation from country: If you ask progressives about their patriotic feeling, they will tell you that they don’t think of themselves first as Americans but as “citizens of the world.” That even has a Harvard imprimatur. They are, in fact, so profoundly alienated from their country (us) as to be in some sense foreigners to it. They are hostile to its history and to its core values, which they see as reflections of a society that has been guilty of racism and oppression on an epic scale. And they are fundamentally opposed to its constitutional arrangements which the framers specifically designed to thwart what they deemed “wicked projects” to redistribute income and share individual wealth.
This is perhaps the hardest feature of their progressive adversaries for conservatives to comprehend. It is difficult to imagine that people as privileged by America’s generosity as Barack Obama and his entourage of despoilers should be so alienated from their country as to feel themselves in it but not of it. And there is no more shocking example of this than Benghazi. No matter what your politics, or what solutions you propose to the problems that confront this nation, ask yourself this: Could you have done what Barack Obama did that night? Could you as commander-in-chief abandon three Americans fighting for their lives under your command? These men had served their country for more than a decade. For seven hours they cried out for help from their government, but you refused to give it.
How, as a fellow American, could Obama have just left these men to die? No one with an ounce of patriotic feeling could. But he did. Even Alexei Kosygin, the Soviet premier of a Communist dictatorship, maintained contact with his astronaut as he burned up in space. But not our president. When the attack on our embassy in Benghazi began, he hung up the phone and went to bed, and then on to a fundraiser with Beyonce and Jay-Z in Las Vegas in the morning. This, with four Americans including our ambassador dead.
As a nation we are now confronted by mortal enemies in Iran and Syria, in Hizbollah and Hamas – enemies who have openly declared that we are the devil’s party and should be erased from the face of the earth. How could an American president deliberately set out to appease such enemies? How in the face of such threats could he reduce our country to an international laughing stock, no longer respected by our friends, no longer feared by our foes? How could he be so cavalier about having failed so miserably to have defended his country’s security and uphold its honor? How could an American commander-in-chief then put himself in a position to be snubbed by the Iranian Hitlerites, which is what they are, and which is what Obama did? How could he snub our Israeli allies and at the same time grovel before our Islamic enemies? But he did. How could he create a vacuum in the Middle East allowing Russia to become the new regional power? How could he make himself an ally of the Muslim Brotherhood, which slaughters Christians, and promises the extermination of the Jews and spawns terrorist armies like al-Qaeda and Hamas?
The answer to all these questions is that Obama doesn’t identify with our country. He sees himself as a “citizen of the world,” and a redresser of grievances for the suffering he imagines America has inflicted on our adversaries, including Hitlerite Iran. Obama is anti-American.

I think people are idiots if they agree with that spiel, Jeremy.
Progressives are "in touch" with far more citizens than conservatives. But that doesn't mean they are "in touch" with them all, or that everyone agrees completely with the conservative ideology. -
Most people probably think they already know all they need to know about Suko, but I have some new information to bring to light. As this letter will make clear, Suko's ideological colors may have changed over the years. Nevertheless, his core principle has remained the same: to judge people based solely on hearsay. If you don't believe me then note that Suko claims that the moon is made of green cheese. Whether that's true or not, his evidence is corrupted by a vast amount of nonsense and outright fraud. Before we can further discuss Suko's claim we must acknowledge that Suko always puts a fugleman in charge of blackmailing politicians into making things worse. That way, Suko can feign innocence, as he wasn't the one who did anything wrong. In fact, he can easily deny that his claim that society is supposed to be lenient towards the most intemperate serpents you'll ever see requires a willing suspension of disbelief, an ability to set logic aside and accept any preposterous notion that Suko throws at us.
The main dissensus between me and Suko is that I warrant that at their mildest, Suko's half-measures still manage to produce a new generation of uncompromising scalawags whose opinions and prejudices, far from being enlightened and challenged, are simply legitimized. Suko, on the other hand, contends that his canards are intelligent, commonsensical, and entirely consonant with the views of ordinary people. He says that cell-phone towers are in fact covert mind-control devices that use scalar waves to beam images into people's brains while they sleep. Wow! Isn't that like hiding the stolen goods in the closet and, when the cops come in, standing in front of the closet door and exclaiming, “They're not in here!”?
Anyone who hasn't been living in a cave with his eyes shut and his ears plugged knows that it amazes me how successful Suko has been at sowing the seeds of discord. History will look back on that unfortunate success with profound regret and wonder why the people of our time didn't do more to offer a framework for discussion so that we can more quickly reach a consensus. Perhaps our answer should be that we can disagree with Suko without being disagreeable. For instance, I would like to politely disagree with some of his pranks by pointing out that if Suko's co-conspirators had even an ounce of integrity they would get people to see through the hollowness, the sham, the silliness of Suko's hypocritical hatchet jobs. We should agree on definitions before saying anything further about Suko's temulent ideas. For starters, let's say that “sciolism” is “that which makes Suko yearn to uproot our very heritage and pave the way for his own juvenile value system.” If, today, the urge of his war-soul can prompt him to marginalize the traditions and truths upon which our nation's greatness sits, then imagine, if you can, how that same soul will express itself through the thousandfold-more-pestiferous Suko of tomorrow. Every time he tells his adherents that taxpayers are a magic purse that never runs out of gold, their eyes roll into the backs of their heads as they become mindless receptacles of unsubstantiated information, which they accept without question. On a closing note, I hope that this letter, while incomplete, informal, and having no authority except its own inner strength and conviction, has clearly demonstrated to you that unlike Suko, I have chosen to take the moral high ground and will remain there. -
I like all of the disinformation he feeds his own people.
The deportation numbers. He counted turn backs, meaning people who were picked up attempting to get in, not people actually in the U.S. being deported.
The unemployment rate. "Conveniently" forgets California. One of the highest unemployment rates in the U.S.
The spying on and targeting of rival parties.
IRS targeting conservatives for audits. Spying on allies overseas.
The "sanctions" placed on russia that were literally taken as a joke. (Google Russia sanction reactions. The people sanctioned posted on twitter about how funny it was)
Then today, I learned he no longer wants to deport people. Now, instead of deporting illegal immigrants who have commited crimes (and been convicted) he wants to keep them in the U.S. so that way we pay for their housing in jail, their food they eat in jail, and the T.V. They watch everyday in jail.
Spending us so much farther into debt, we had to raise the debt ceiling to keep the economic system from imploding.
He has for all intents and purposes made America look like a joke.
He promised change. Too bad it was a change for the worse.
