More Boot Licking From The Left: Obama Is The Most Powerful Writer Since Julius Casear
I really don’t have much to say about this obsequious, belly crawling, boot licking, cringing, kneeling, please-sir-may-I-have-more statement from an actual adult, NEA head Rocco Landesman:
“This is the first president that actually writes his own books since Teddy Roosevelt and arguably the first to write them really well since Lincoln. If you accept the premise, and I do, that the United States is the most powerful country in the world, then Barack Obama is the most powerful writer since Julius Caesar. That has to be good for American artists.”
Yeah, well, as others have pointed out, this is either a complete and utter flat-out lie introduced in a way that would have made Stalin’s propaganda ministers giving each other high-fives, or it is an ignorant and worshipful statement made by a supposedly educated man who should know better.
You choose.
Anyway, this has been around for a couple of days, so I can’t say too much about this piece of self-delusional fellatio that hasn’t already been said, but I would like to regurgitate two points about the Caesar comparison:
Julius Caesar destroyed a great republic, turning it into an empire with himself emperor. It would never recover its democracy completely. And:
That didn’t work out so well for him in the end. And this won’t, either. Obama and his crew will bring the entire Democratic party down and when the figurative knives of the electorate fall they’ll be looking around in stunned disbelief at those who will turn on them and asking, “Et tu, er, everybody?”
Everybody except folks like Rocco Landesman and the other artists and Hollywood worshippers, that is. They won’t be able to hear the rest of America with the Obama Adminstration’s collective colon muffling their ears.
