Winston Churchill might have dismissed President Obama's administration as cavalierly as he once dismissed a bowl of pudding: "It has no theme."
What would Obama say in his own defense? George Bush's war on terrorism is now Obama's war. Bush's panicky response to the financial collapse is now Obama's panicky approach, replete with pork thinly disguised as bailout.
The only 180-degree shifts so far are Obama's order that the terrorist group home at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, be closed in a year and that the United States will resume contributions to foreign organizations that promote abortion.
The Guantanamo maneuver is a symbolic gesture that may never have a real-world result.
As for the reversal of the Bush ban on subsidizing pro-abortion groups, the important question would seem to be: why is the U.S. government contributing taxpayers' money to any organization, whether pro or con, whose purpose it is to influence public opinion on abortion?
Isn't that a question that individual Americans should decide?
Nothing better exemplifies the mindless, runaway arrogance and intrusiveness of government in America in 2009. The president is going to use tax revenue to promote abortion in other countries even though some of the taxpayers are dead-set against abortion.
If a legitimate conservative party existed in America, this anti-American assininity would stop.
One other manifestation of "hope" and "change" is Obama's recognition that Rush Limbaugh, not the Republican Party, is his opposition. Because of that insight, Obama's first term promises to be entertaining, if not constructive.
In one corner we have a narcisist schooled in ACORN thuggery and Marxist black liberation theolocrap who presented himself as a black messiah at a moment when America was ready to purge itself of its wrongs against blacks.
In the other corner we have a fearless and funny self-made, self-taught commentator and entertainer who earns $50 million a year but remains deeply devoted to the values of the founders.
Let the bout begin.

Rush Limbaugh was born in 1951 to an American mom “Millie” and an American dad lawyer & WWII Fighter Pilot in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Since ‘President’ Obama now wants to silence El Rushbo even before BHO has a chance to try to re-establish the “fairness doctrine” to silence all conservative talk radio, I’ve got three questions (but answers to only two of them):
FIRST QUESTION: Who IS the actual and lawful 44th President of the USA?
ANSWER: Joe Biden
Biden was initially the Acting President for at least 5 minutes under either the Constitution’s Article 2 or the Constitution’s 20th Amendment, from 12:00 Noon 1/20/09, having already taken his Oath of Office and before Obama completed his ‘oath’ at approximately 12:05 PM, 1/20/09. Under the 20th Amendment if the President-elect shall have failed to qualify, or alternatively under Article 2 if the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term, being 12:00 Noon 1/20/09, which ability and/or qualification includes that he take the Article 2 oath “before he enter on the execution of his office,” then either the Presidency shall devolve on the Vice President under Article 2 or the Vice President shall act as President under the 20th Amendment. (The importance of the oath in ‘commencing’ an ‘Obama Presidency’ — rather than merely the 1/20/09 Noon time — is confirmed by the re-take of the ‘oath’ by Obama at the White House on 1/21/09 after the first ‘oath’ was NOT administered by Justice Roberts NOR recited by Obama in the words as required under Article 2.)
This is significant because at such time that the Supreme Court finally rules on the merits on Obama’s disqualification as not being an Article 2 “natural born citizen” (clearly he is NOT under either and/or both of two theories — (1) BHO refuses to show Birth Certificate to deny Kenyan birth/res ipsa loquitur “action speaks for itself” or (2) BHO admits dad was Kenyan/British, not American, citizen at Jr’s birth), Biden’s automatic status (without needing to take a separate Presidential Oath) of being President would be predicated upon four different bases: First, having been Vice President under Article 2; second, having been Vice President-elect under the 20th Amendment; third, having been actual President in the hiatus before Obama took the ‘oath(s)’; and fourth, retroactively deemed President during the full period of the Obama usurpation so that the acts of the Federal Government under the usurpation can be deemed authorized and/or ratified by Biden’s legitimacy.
SECOND QUESTION: Who will be the 45th President?
ANSWER: Hillary Clinton
One must assume that Bill and Hillary Clinton have been aware of all of the above. Biden’s wife recently “let the cat out of the bag” on the Oprah Show that both Biden and Hillary had considered alternatively Veep or Secretary of State, in either case, setting up Hillary to be President on a vote of the Democratic Congress if need be.
THIRD QUESTION: Is Obama an unwitting victim of this troika or a knowing participant?
ANSWER: Yet undetermined.
