In accusing Romney of being unworthy of the Oval Office, once again the President has jumped on his rocking horse of faux moralism. Cue the standard 'look away from the camera, pensive, this is serious' posture. This is a major league political hypocrisy in which President Obama is the political Josh Hamilton. Sadly, when it comes to Obama's hypocrisy, there is nothing new here. After the successful Bin Laden operation, the President claimed that he wanted the event to be a moment of national unity devoid of partisanship. And then... he did exactly the opposite and unashamedly decided to use the operation to attack Romney. Another example? Consider candidate Obama in 2008. After stating in his book (supposedly written to foster bi-partisanship) that President Bush was too stupid to hold his office, in response, Bush then used his last press conference to speak highly of Obama, expressing his wish that the new President would be respected. What a difference. Of course, 2008 was also the year in which Obama (speaking to a fundraising audience...) proclaimed middle Americans to be racist and their values delusional.
In fact, Obama the constitutional law professor is so convinced of his own moral omnipotence, that he finds no qualms even in attacking the Supreme Court* when they dare to disagree with his personal opinion. Who cares that this kind of action cuts at the crucial foundation of our country's separation of powers?
It is sad that much of the media have no interest in pointing out these profound and obvious contradictions. But hey, President Obama is perfect so what do I know?
Maybe President Obama was asleep during his first week at Harvard Law?
* - As well as deliberately misrepresenting the Citizens United decision by falsely claiming that it authorized foreign spending in US elections.
