Thus Spake Obama - The incompetence of our neo-monarchy

By Mark Steyn November 15, 201

On Thursday, he passed a new law at a press conference. George III never did that. But, having ordered America’s insurance companies to comply with Obamacare, the president announced that he is now ordering them not to comply with Obamacare. The legislative branch (as it’s still quaintly known) passed a law purporting to grandfather your existing health plan. The regulatory bureaucracy then interpreted the law so as to un-grandfather your health plan. So His Most Excellent Majesty has commanded that your health plan be de-un-grandfathered. That seems likely to work. The insurance industry had three years to prepare for the introduction of Obamacare. Now the King has given them six weeks to de-introduce Obamacare.

The same president who had unilaterally commanded that people be allowed to keep their health plans indignantly threatened to veto any such law to that effect: It only counts if he does it…… As his court eunuchs at the Associated Press obligingly put it: “Obama Will Allow Old Plans.” It’s Barry’s world; we just live in it.  The reason for the benign Sovereign’s exercise of the Royal Prerogative is that millions of his subjects— …..have had their lives upended by Obamacare……Michael Beschloss pronounced….. he’s “probably the smartest guy ever to become president.” Naturally, Obama shares this assessment. As he assured us five years ago, “I know more about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors.”....To Read More….
My Take – Amazing!  The smartest man to ever be President of the United States, who knew more about every issue than his advisers, didn’t know about the IRS scandal, Benghazi, NSA, the fraud of global warming, the economic failure of ‘alternative’ energy, and this mess.  Wow!  There must have been some really dumb presidents in the past.  No wonder Bill Clinton is angry, because that means he’s dumber than Obama, who is clearly dumber than Jimmy Carter.  Why is he dumber than Carter?  Because he's repeating all the same failed policies of Jimmy Carter.  At least Carter had the excuse of not knowing the outcome.  Obama can't make that claim.   That clearly makes him dumber than Jimmy, which makes Clinton dumber than Carter and Obama.  Wow!  I’d be angry too.
