Could BHO really be this stupid?

Lately I have been terribly confused. How could BHO make the incredibly stupid mistakes he is? What could possible be going on? TV pundits seemed to have the same quandry. So do bloggers.

James Simpson at American Thinker says:

”It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact.

In September of last year, American Thinker published my article, Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis. Part of a series, it connected then-presidential candidate Barack Obama to individuals and organizations practicing a malevolent strategy for destroying our economy and our system of government…The methodology is known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy, and we can all be grateful to David Horowitz and his Discover the Networks for originally exposing and explaining it to us. He describes it as:

The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.”

I had forgotten about the Cloward-Pliven Stategy. It had seemed so far-fetched that the American public could fall for such a strategy. But aren’t we letting BHO, our Pied-Piper, pipe us into purposeful chaos, a chaos that will cause us to prostrate ourselves before the State because everything we hold dear will have been banished and we have no other choice?

Simpson answers:

“The real goal of "health care" legislation, the real goal of "cap-and-trade," and the real goal of the "stimulus" is to rip the guts out of our private economy and transfer wide swaths of it over to the government to control. Do not be deluded by the propaganda. These initiatives are vehicles for change. They are not goals in and of themselves except in their ability to deliver power. They and will make matters much worse, for that is their design.

“This time, in addition to overwhelming the government with demands for services, Obama and the Democrats are overwhelming political opposition to their plans with a flood of apocalyptic legislation. Their ultimate goal is to leave us so discouraged, demoralized, and exhausted that we throw our hands up in defeat. As Barney Frank said, "the middle class will be too distracted to fight….

I think it’s pretty clear… but I guess I am still hoping that BHO is just plain dumb … that I won’t keep hearing his flute as he leads us purposefully into his statist abyss!
