No Loss for Words

I heard celebrity comedian Chris Rock express his opinion the other day about the prospects of a second Obama term.  His comments were surprisingly accurate.  So much so that the rest of us better take notice.

Some celebrities may have soured a bit on President Barack Obama, but not Chris Rock. The comedian and actor told fellow comedian Marc Maron on the “WTF with Marc Maron” podcast that he’s “fine with the president,” if only because he understands that the president has to keep his most aggressive policies on the back burner until he earns a second term.

“There’s a f——— art to the first term because you’re always running for a second term the whole time. It’s like Clinton’s first term. You can’t really do your gangsta sh— until your second term. … Even Bush couldn’t really f—- up the world until his second term. That’s when he put the hammer down.”

But Rock understands a lot of the disappointment that Obama’s supporters have had thus far in his presidency.

“I’m like everybody, I want more action. But I understand that he’s trying not to piss off a lot of people. But I believe wholeheartedly if he’s back in, he’s going to do some gangsta sh—.”

If there was ever a “heads up” warning that should be heeded, that’s the one.

The President hasn’t forgotten his core supporters and certainly hasn’t abandoned his core principles, but like Mr. Rock said, you have to tread lightly in your first term so you don’t scare off voters you will need to get through to your second term where you won’t have to worry about pissing off voters and you can do whatever you like.

Even though Obama has demonstrated repeatedly that he isn’t the leader voters hoped he would be, he and his appointees have shown they are very proficient at undermining our country and the principles upon which it was founded.

A year or two down the road, I can only imagine the possibilities; and none of them are encouraging.  Chris Rock is giving everyone plenty of time to think about it so what are we gonna do about it?
