What Will Obama’s “International Crisis” Be?


Joe Biden, you have a big mouth. Thanks for spilling the beans.

"Will the military assault on Iran occur not under the highly unpopular Bush administration, as many had predicted, but under an Obama presidency? Riding into office on a wave of popular approval and support, Obama will have the political capital to get the country behind the attack if the threat of imminent danger is cited - or at least stand by and allow Israel to do the dirty work."

and

"What will Obama’s crisis be that enables him to offer his contribution to building the American police state?

"- A terror attack, or a series of attacks, on major American cities, possibly involving crudely designed nuclear bombs or dirty bombs?

"- A complete economic collapse and a new great depression leading to food riots and the imposition of martial law?

"- A military showdown with Russia should Russia attempt to invade Georgia or another pro-U.S. Russian satellite country?

"- A nuclear showdown with Russia should Russia start a nuclear war with Ukraine, as has been threatened?

"- The necessity for another military attack on Afghanistan should the Taliban continue to regain control of the country?

"- A confrontation with Venezuela should it be revealed that Hugo Chavez is receiving nuclear bomb technology from Russia or Iran?

"- A new escalation in the Middle East should Israel deploy its nuclear arsenal to attack Iran, Syria Lebanon, or even Egypt?"

I PREDICT -- If, and I say if, there is some military attack by the U.S. under Obama's command, there will be protests as many honest people on the Left protested Bill Clinton's bombing of Yugoslavia. Those protests will include unlikely allies such as Republicans, "PUMA" Democrats who opposed Obama, and other former supporters of Obama who hate more American military adventures.

I also predict that a majority Democratic Congress and the compliant media such as Joy Behar of ABC's "The View," will support Obama in any military action. It will be the exact opposite of Bush in 2003 when we went into Iraq. The Republicans will cry foul. However many of Obama's supporters will be disillusioned, especially his black supporters. They will discover he was not "their" president after all. They will say "He is no better than Bush" and "I'm sorry I voted for him. I'm disappointed." And Pastor James David Manning of Harlem, New York (www.atlah.org) will say "I told yall black folks last year that Long-Legged Mack Daddy Obama is a devil! You all loved your blackness more than you loved Jesus and this is what you got!"

Also many of the people, especially celebrities, who hated Bush for invading Iraq will be quiet about Obama's military actions as the National Organization of Woman (NOW) were quiet about Bill Clinton's sexual escapades. (I will have a good time pointing out their hypocrisy.) I also predict there will be celebrities, like Alec Baldwin, and media people, such as Lou Dobbs of CNN, who will speak out against Obama. (If Chris Matthews of MSNBC's Hardball was honest he would say "The thrill is gone.") Obama will become rapidly unpopular with common people. There may be even some wienies who would blame George W. Bush for that crisis.

But it is too late. We wanted the "Messiah-Savior" to be our leader. We got suckered. Democrats can say "We got suckered again. We should have voted for a Coke machine for change."
