Obama spokesman: "Obama ready to rule on day one"
« on: November 10, 2008, 10:49:25 AM »
The co-chair of Barack Obama's Transition Team, Valerie Jarrett, appeared on Meet the Press this weekend and used, shall we say, an interesting word to described what she thinks Barack Obama will be doing in January when he's officially sworn into office. She told Tom Brokaw that Obama will be ready to "rule" on day one. It's a word that reflects the worst fears that people have for Obama the "arrogant," the "messiah," that imagines he's here to "rule" instead of govern.

Jarret told Brokaw that "given the daunting challenges that we face, it's important that president elect Obama is prepared to really take power and begin to rule day one."

Let me just state - for the record - Mr. Obama sir.

I WILL NOT BE RULED.

The moonbats and DUmp monkeys love[d] calling President Bush a king, so I'd love to see their spin on this.

I heard that Harry Winston's has already been issued a Royal Warrant of Appointment for the making of the royal crown.

Perhaps I should apply for a Letter of Marque from our new King.

The Big Zero's team should pick up a history book and find out what happened to the last men who tried to "rule" America.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Blessedly, Obama has shown us the way to handle such affairs.

What was it that Obama's friend, co-worker and mentor used to do to recruiting stations he didn't like?

It will be most amusing to see what happens when the expectation of ruling meets the reality of the political process, budgets, the stubborn refusal of macroeconomic forces to heed Messianic decrees, the effect of fundamentally stupid economic policies on revenue, and the opportunism of foreign leaders and entities waiting to exploit the slightest Presidential slip. 

The Press will get bored with trying to make it look pretty sometime between late March and Memorial Day.

The fact Jesus never even tried--as opposed to all others--shows a supernatural wisdom and restraint...perhaps the single greatest evidence of his possible messiahship.
