The Conservative Pussy Posse Gives Barack Obama a Blow-Job

When Bill Clinton was president, Conservatives tried to destroy him with an endless series of fabricated slime attacks. There were the phony "scandals" of Whitewater, Travel-Gate, Gays in the Military, the Vince Foster "murder", Hillary Clinton's Health Plan, Bimbo-Gate, etc., etc., etc.

The only area where Republicans found any opening at all is when they impeached Clinton for lying under oath about having received a blow-job from Monica Lewinsky. These "Conservatives" cheapened and degraded the United States Constitution by turning lying under oath about receiving a blow-job from a consenting adult into a "High Crime and Misdemeanor" -- thus justifying impeachment of the president. Conservatives thereby showed that everything is a "war game" to them, and that they have no real regard or respect for the Constitution. Anything is a "high crime and misdemeanor" if it can help bring down a liberal president and restore the Conservative Destructionists to political power.

Now, of course, with Barack Obama, Conservatives have a different problem. Obama is a devoted family man who loves his wife and daughters, and whose major "extra-curricular activity" consists of playing basketball. He is never away from home surreptitiously engaging in "high crimes and misdemeanors" with third parties.

Therefore, since Republicans have learned that blow-jobs are the only way to bring down a popular, attractive young president, they have been forced to manufacture blow-jobs for the current incumbent.

And, the Conservative Pussy Posse has been on-the-job, hot and heavy, creating blow-jobs galore. By Pussy Posse, of course, I refer to the assembled Right-Wing Punditocracy of Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Michele Malkin, Michael Savage, FOX and Fiends, and their ilk. Who, after all, is more of a Pussy than Glenn ("The Sky Is Falling" - "I Fear For My Country" - "Crocodile Tears") Beck?

Now, the Pussy Posse has recently drawn some blood by forcing the resignation of Van Jones, a highly respected environmental expert, from the Obama Administration. Despite the various Right-Wing allegations and innuendoes about Van Jones, his real crime was that he was part of a group trying to get Glenn Beck removed from the airwaves. Clearly, Van Jones was serious about attempting to improve America's environment.

However, it was not enough that Van Jones was forced to resign. In doing so, the Pussy Posse once again returned to trumpeting Obama's links to Jeremiah Wright, William Ayres, Tony Rezko, and other super-stars of the 2008 election. This is how the Pussy Posse is attempting to give Obama a blow-job. Obama's supposed links to "left-wing radicals" will be the blow-job which the Pussy Posse tries to use to define Obama and bring down his administration. Today's Conservative Catechism has become the recital of a litany of the names of Jeremiah Wright, William Ayres, Tony Rezko and, now, Van Jones, whenever Obama's name is mentioned.

Now, Beck, Hannity and their colleagues at FOX and Fiends have turned their attention to Obama's Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools Director Kevin Jennings, labeling Jennings another "Czar" they want to purge from the Obama administration. What was Jennings' offense? He has tried to promote understanding and tolerance for homosexuality in the public schools. Well, FOX and Fiends knows its audience. They know that Conservatives and Republicans are a Hotbed of Homophobia. So, the Pussy Posse is now on the warpath against a member of the Obama administration who is trying to say a kind word for homosexuals in the school system. It's the typical GOP "Us Vs. Them" approach -- the usual Right-Wing Divide and Conquer tactic. The Pussy Posse is now mobilizing its vast army of Homophobes to go after the scalp of Kevin Jennings.

The other part of the Blow-Job is to fictitiously label Obama a "Socialist". Never mind that de-regulation, lack of financial supervision, tilting the tax code to favor the top 1 %, and other mantras of Ayn Rand's Conservative mumbo-jumbo, brought our entire financial system to the brink of collapse by the time Obama took office. Never mind that our entire capitalist system was on its death bed, thanks to eight years of Conservative policies. Never mind that the government stimulus and other programs of the Obama administration have restored our capitalist system to financial health. Obama rightfully says that "we are not out of the woods yet". However, the patient is demonstrably better --- out of bed and walking around again. America's capitalist system has been saved -- thanks to the swift and powerful stimulus policies of the new Obama administration. And, this is who the Pussy Posse labels a "Socialist" -- the Man Who Saved Capitalism.

Yesterday, Obama gave his first speech at the United Nations as president of the USA. It was a great speech, very well received by the international community. Obama is an American leader of enormous world-wide popularity and he is lifting America's international popularity and leadership to ever-greater heights. But -- what did the Pussy Posse have to say about the speech? That it was embarrassing, that it was craven, that Obama was "apologizing" for our country. The Pussy Posse will never say anything good about Obama, no matter what. They are too pre-occupied with trying to give him a Blow-Job, to bring him down.

The fact is that Obama does not engage in bombastic saber-rattling, the preferred modus operandi of our chicken-hawk Conservatives. He does not want America to "go it alone", to act unilaterally. He prefers to act in concert with our allies. That is the same approach taken by Woodrow Wilson in World War I when the US, working in concert with our allies, brought World War I to an end a year and a half after we entered the war. Likewise, FDR defeated the Axis powers in World War II, by working in close concert with our allies.

Back at the time of World War II, when FDR announced his "Good Neighbor Policy" with regard to South America, Conservatives attacked "That Man" for this policy, too. Conservatives always prefer the Big Brother, Big Stick, Big Bully approach. Well, yesterday at the United Nations, Obama proclaimed America's new Good Neighbor policy towards the entire world. Now, the Conservative Pussy Posse is up in arms over that, too.

His attempting to solve the world's problems through diplomacy instead of waging war will be one more Blow-Job the Conservative Pussy Posse tries to pin on Obama. Conservatives have only heard of one national leader who ever tried to solve world problems through diplomacy, and that leader was Neville Chamberlain. Since 1938, any leader who tries to resolve international problems through diplomacy is labeled "another Neville Chamberlain". So, Neville Chamberlain now becomes another member of the Conservative Catechism of Names that the Pussy Posse tries to attach to Obama.

Never mind the fact that the much maligned Jimmy Carter, through patient diplomacy -- and in conjunction with Menachem Begin and Anwar Sadat -- was able to forge a lasting peace between former bitter enemies Israel and Egypt. Never mind that Muammar Quaddafi of Libya has now turned the page and become a law-abiding member of the international community, without having his country invaded.

Our greatest war leaders have tried diplomacy before they were forced to lead the USA into war. In 1916, Wilson was re-elected on the platform that "He Kept Us Out of War" -- although the events of the next few months forced Wilson to take us into World war I by March 1917. In 1941, FDR was negotiating with Japanese diplomats right up to the point when Pearl Harbor was bombed.

These efforts at diplomacy actually strengthened our hand once we finally entered those wars. Our entire country, indeed, the entire world, saw that we were trying to resolve international problems through diplomacy and that we were only forced into war as a last resort. These attempts at diplomacy helped strengthen our moral posture and our international alliances and ultimately helped speed our military victories.

In short, the Pussy Posse has its work cut out for it. Their Job: Get Obama. No matter what Obama does, the Pussy Posse will be out there riding herd, trying to pin a Blow-Job on him. Will the American people fall for the Pussy Posse's never-ending malarkey?

We'll see.
