Of vacations, ashes and sackcloth
Around the world and in the United States, the occupant of the Oval Office has created chaos, pitted the races against one another, embroiled the Middle East in war and destruction, and allowed an invasion of malfeasants, disease carriers, criminals, gangs and terrorists. Millions of Americans cannot find a job and tens of millions more have given up on finding a job. The economy is in a shambles. The government is violating citizens rights on a daily basis. The “president” has accomplished much in the name of his socialist Islamic agenda. It’s long and tedious work destroying a nation. It’s time for vacation. Not just any vacation–15 days at a $12 million estate in the exclusive spot of millionaires–Martha’s Vineyard.
Christian children are being beheaded in front of their parents in Iraq by Islamists that his administration helped create by releasing their leader from prison and secretly training his comrades with US military tactics in Jordan. Christian families are being tortured, starved and slaughtered by an organization enacting the strategies of the caliphate building Muslim Brotherhood–the “president’s” declared foreign policy partner. It is so obvious that the world is in a terrible mess it has caught the attention of one part of the Twiddle-Dee, Twiddle-Dumb duo of Secretary of State John Kerry and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. The Weekly Standard Reports that Hagel told marines, “The world is exploding all over.”
Even the French socialists, who take a guaranteed five weeks vacation a year (almost as much as the “president’s 31 days in Martha’s Vineyard and Hawaii, plus weekends), think the “president” gives socialism a bad name. The UK Daily Mail reports that French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius told a radio interviewer, “I know it is the holiday period in our Western countries, but when people are dying, you must come back from vacation.” The left-leaning Washington Post has taken notice. Liberal columnist Dana Milbank wrote: “…his decision to proceed with his getaway just 36 hours after announcing the military action in Iraq risks fueling the impression that he is detached as the world burns.”
Detached? Or Purposeful? The Washington Times reports that the “president” will likely log at least a round of golf per day on vacation. That will bring him to about 210 rounds of golf during his presidency. The Times points out that since January 2009 (when the “president” took office), Tiger Woods has played 269 rounds of golf. Woods being injured will mean that the “president” by next spring will likely surpass the man whose job it is to play golf. Nero had his fiddle. This guy has his nine iron. Certainly, the comparison has many similarities. Proverbs 29:2 says, “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked bears rule, the people mourn.” Ashes and sackcloth anyone?
