....And Commie Dictator Wannabes Have The Thinnest Skins

D'ja think Comrade Hussein heard the junior senator from South Carolina?

Ya know, it sounds cliched, but in his case it really is true: If you want to know what Barack Obama really thinks, reverse the meaning of whatever he says.  Or, in other words, OF COURSE IT'S ALL ABOUT HIM.  He's GODBAMA, Barack-damn it, and nobody - and the BaROCK MEANS NOBODY! - is allowed to blaspheme him or criticize his communizing agenda - and escape his demi-divine wrath!  Thus, of course, underscoring every word that Senator DeMint said.

But then, it's not as if Barry O ever could get out of his own verbal way when TOTUS wasn't squatting right in front of him:

"Hey, take a pill."  A chill pill, perhaps?  "And besides, death isn't really so bad once you get used to it.  And you get to spend eternity serving me!"  How that's supposed to differ from this life is anybody's guess, except perhaps that in eternity we might actually be able to afford his tax burden.  Or get our own personal printing presses, or something.

Maybe he should have taken his own prescription, because when the Golden Child starts feeling the slightest smidgen of political heat, his cherished belittling verbal ticks come rolling forth as if on cue:

The problem isn't a disastrous (and hostile) government takeover of a perfectly functional (if far from perfect) health care sector, or his stupendously dishonest promotion of it, oh heavens, no.  It's that We, The People, are "clinging" to our existing health care plans, with which four Americans out of every five are satisfied and want to retain, just as we "cling" to our "guns and religion" like "backward bumpkins who huddle around failure because they’re too afraid to be more like…him."  Oh, and by the way, if you like that {shudder} private health care plan to which you insist on "clinging," you can keep it.  Until I take it away from you for your own "good," kind of like taking away Jack's last two cows (ahem) for three magic beans that will grow stinkbait instead of a beanstalk.

But look on the bright side, Barry - after you're deposed (democratically or like your buddy Manuel Zalaya is up to you), you could have a second career in front of you as a stand-up comic, for which Russ Carnahan could be your opening act:

Assuming, that is, that you could prune his nose sufficiently to avoid putting out the eyes of audience members in the front few rows.

Is the BarryCare shark airborne?  Not yet.  But it's certainly digging its fins into the starting gates.
