Victor Davis Hanson asks what I'm sure is a rhetorical question
in his column today. Surely no one expects Obama to back down now from the rest of his marxist agenda. Shortly after VDH's article went up, I posted the following comment:
Obama is no centrist. He is no
moderate. He is no "post-partisan." He is a lying, manipulative sneak
who learned the lessons of Saul Alinsky well. Having persuaded
the Democrats in Congress to fall on their swords for him, they will see
nothing else to lose by forcing through cap-and-trade, votes for
convicted felons, and amnesty for illegal aliens.
And that's just
this year.
And you can expect more gladhanding with Chavez,
Ortego, Ahmedinejad and Castro, and more chastisements for Israel.
Just
watch
Today, as luck would have it, Obama has already received
plaudits from Papa Fidel. Since Cuba's health care is so notoriously BAD, I can't wait to see what Obama's praiseworthy health care system will look like.
This, perhaps? Or
this?
It is no coincidence that some of the worst care in this country is in the government-run hospitals and clinics like those run by the
Veterans Administration, or the
Indian Health Services.
But of course, as Papa Fidel tells us, Cubans got "free" health care over 50 years ago. Imagine what our system will look like after 50 years of Obamacare.
