Barack Obama, the fake maximum
By Grant Swank

This man has no real experience. Yet he's hoping to rule the most powerful nation on the planet.

What is it that Barack Obama has to get where he is? Nothing but flimflam.

Oprah Winfrey has fallen for his looks and charm. It's so evident that Oprah is taken in so easily by good looking men — white and otherwise. Her show has highlighted these handsome creatures over months. Every time she swoons over them, flirting with them, sometimes even making quite suggestive remarks. Her audiences love it.

Now she's turned her romantic overtures into stadium sideshows starring none other than a first-class political fake. The crowds are so taken with the entertainment that they relate all that to political genius.

Obama has no experience worth typing on a resume to sit in the Oval Office let alone rule anything for anyone from that space.

He's glib. He's smooth. He's excellent with crafting phrases. But when listening to his mini-speeches, does he not sound like a high school student running for the student council? or senior class president?

His sentences, his phrasing, is so sophomoric that I sit listening to him wondering how his listeners are so awe-struck. All ages are simply enamored by him.

He struts like a Hollywood star. His slim build enhances his striking image. His smile spread across America. His cute-boy looks somehow have tricked both genders into believing that he deserves their votes.

There is no substance to this man. He gives forth the typical liberal litany — including support for killing womb babies and sodomy. The nation takes it in stride.

What in the name of common sense let alone intelligence has happened to the populace that they are so sucked in by this horrific joke?

Even the media quotes him as if he were providing genuine wisdom for our times. He is not speaking anything worth noting let alone translating into legislation. His sentences are laden with sweet sounding worn cliches — over and over.

We need to unite. We need to be liked around the world. We need to renew. We need to look to the future for this great nation. We need to forget our differences and hold hands. We need to envision tomorrows shining with God's sunshine.

These speeches go on forever and ever and ever. America listens and scores fall for this tripe as if it were material for the US presidency.

It's not. It's failure personified.
