It's the Limbaugh theorem.
Rush notes that Obama complains about things as if he had no role or control over the very thing he says is wrong and needs fixing. And the media smiles stupidly and reports it as if he's an innocent bystander.
It really is fascinating to witness.
It is indeed.
I can be a bit calmer than some here, because I have already come to terms with our fate. The US is like one of the towers after the jet hit it. It's still standing, battered, but for all intents and purposes looks as though it will stand. It won't. This country is going to fall, hard. Americans think that since we are unlikely to be directly invaded by an occupying force, short of nuclear war, we're invincible. They are so wrong.
We are going to die the death of a thousand cuts. Mexicans who chose not to assimilate, and owe their allegiance to Mexico. muslims who actively hate this country, and will attack it from within. The left, who sees this as a criminal nation, founded by old white men who owned slaves. America's past sins, slavery, the treatment of Native Americans, negates anything good about America, and renders the constitution a "flawed document". The left wants to scrap the constitution and draft their own, (presumably with no gun ownership, wealth redistribution, and political correctness built in). We have a news media that is owned by a select few, and is driven to promote all things left, and attack all things conservative. And we have the external challenges of China, Russia, India and others out smarting us at every turn. The leaders of other nations are motivated to further their own countries' interests, while our leaders seek to subvert America's interests. Eventually, that will come back to bite us, as our economic power dwindles, and our competitiveness withers. It will all simply be the "new normal", and the public will accept it, as long as they can facebook, and tweet, and do whatever else.
This is where the analog to the tower fails. Unlike the tower that falls in a heap with a roar, America will slowly wither, and become unrecognizable. A stooge to stronger, more motivated nations.
And we get to watch it happen.
