Krauthammer on Barack Obama – 2 of 2

…Dr. Krauthammer himself said, in a statement posted to the Center of the American Experiment’s web site, that:

This account is neither accurate nor authoritative. My views on Obama are well known. I’ve explained them in a series of five columns. This email is somebody putting his own ideological stamp and spin on my views…Anyone who wants to know my views should consult those and not this email. Articles by Charles Krauthammer that directly explicit his views on President Obama are listed below: {They are straightforward and insightful.} Articles are in the Washington Post.

1.Obama: The Grand Strategy - Apr. 24, 09 - 2. The Sting, in Four Parts – Apr. 17, 09

2.Obama’s Ultimate Agenda – Apr. 3, 09 – 4. The Great Non Sequitur – March 6, 2009

5.The Obamaist Manifesto – February 27, 2009

Now let us finish the rest of the email where somebody is putting his own ideological stamp on Charles Krauthammer’s talk at the Annual Dinner of June 1, 2009.

7. He’s (Obama) now handing out goodies. He hopes that the bill (and pain) will not ‘come due’ until after he is reelected in 2012. He’d like to blame all problems on Bush from the past, and hopefully his successor in the future. He has a huge ego, and Mr. Krauthammer believes he is a narcissist.

8. Republicans are in the wilderness for a while, but will emerge strong. We’re pinning for another Reagan, but they’ll never be another like him. Krauthammer believes Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty, & (Bobby Jindahl) (except for his terrible speech in February) are the future of the party, Newt Gingrich is brilliant, but has baggage. Sarah Palin is sincere and intelligent, but needs to really be seriously boning up on facts and info if she is to be a serious candidate in the future. We need to return to the party of lower taxes, smaller government, personal responsibility, strong national defense, and states’ rights.

9. The current level of spending is irresponsible and outrageous. We’re spending trillions that we don’t have. This could lead to hyper inflation, depression or worse. No country has ever spent themselves into prosperity. The media is giving Obama, Reid and Pelosi a pass because they love their agenda. But eventually the bill will come due and people will realize the huge bailouts didn’t work, nor will the stimulus package. These were trillion-dollar payoffs to Obama’s allies, unions and the Congress to placate the left, so he can get support for # 4 above.

10. The election was over in mid-September when Lehman Brothers failed, fear and panic swept in, we had an unpopular President, and the war was grinding on indefinitely without a clear outcome. The people are in pain, and the mantra of ‘change’ cause people to act emotionally. Any Dem would have won this election; it was surprising it was as close as it was.

11. In 2012, if the unemployment rate is over 10%, the Republicans will be swept back into power. If it’s under 8%, the Dems continue to roll. If it’s between 8-10% it’ll be dogfight. It’ll all be about the economy.

The above # 1 to 11 are the notes and views of an anonymous person at the dinner. He says, “I hope this gets you really thinking about what’s happening in Washington and Congress. There’s a left-wing revolution going on, according to Krauthammer, and he encourages us to keep the faith and join the loyal resistance. The work will be hard, but we’re right on most issues and can reclaim our country, before it’s far too late.”
