Victor Davis Hanson pits Barack Hussein Obama against the universe.

Given the size of The One's ego, I don't hold out much hope for the rest of Creation.

  1. That's a great piece, VDH reiterates how one deals with a schoolyard bully, a rival farmer, or a tinpot dictator.
    We all know how it's done, but for some reason the Amazingly Amazing One would rather show he's above it all and just talk and reason with those that would see us all dead.
    Never worked for scientists in old sci fi movies either.

    The first part of the article reminded me of something I heard from an economics professor I had way back in the dim mists of time; the guy was a big Carter fan and said that deficit spending was ok because with inflation it is paid off in cheaper dollars.
    Wish I had asked him how that helps people going to the bank for a loan and told; "Sorry, the government already borrowed all the money"
    Oh that's right, 21% interest rates ensue.
