Obama defines 'Modest'

Post by Pigeon » Fri Jun 07, 2013 8:28 pm

During his speech in San Jose, California on Friday, President Obama took one question from the press on national security monitoring of Americans. Without any sense of irony whatsoever in the aftermath of the IRS’ targeting of conservatives, the administration’s stonewalling on Benghazi, the Department of Justice’s targeting of reporters, the Department of Health and Human Services’ leveraging of private organizations for Obamacare public relations cash, and the Environmental Protection Agency’s secret email addresses, Obama unloaded this line:

If people can’t trust not only the executive branch but also don’t trust Congress, and don’t trust federal judges, to make sure that we’re abiding by the Constitution with due process and rule of law, then we’re going to have some problems here.

Too late on the problems. When are people going to realized they are being dup'ed.

Obama (2007): "That means no more illegal wiretapping of American citizens. No more national security letters to spy on citizens who are not suspected of a crime.

Have you ever visited Disneyland, Disneyworld, or any theme park in general? Even though the majority of it is the same years ago, it creates a brand new experience. Does it matter who you go with? If you go on a sunny day? A weekend or a Thursday? Did a creepy chinese lady keep bumping into you in the Star Tours line? Did the star tours ride just show a chinese lady as being on board spy? (lol Actually happened) Did you know the fast pass system is free? The park doesn't really change, only the way we experience it.

All these small moments add up to provide an all encompassing experience. It can be exhausting or refreshing, exciting or frustrating. But at the end of the day, someone chose to go and live that experience with a particular ontology, and operated with fixed or changeable dataset to make their decisions.

The point is, will all of the presidential decisions be good? No. Will of them be bad decisions? No. Will he be blamed for a bad decision? Yes. Will a good decision be credited toward him? Yes.


There's a long way to go.

Obama has become what he said he wouldn't be. Was it his choice or pressure. I figure that it is just the way the system works.
