♦The President is speaking again revealing the evidence of his incompetence and another obvious assault on truth. He has however, finally admitted some measure of fault on his part for this debauched roll-out of Obama Care or the Affordable Care Act. But this article is concerned with his handling of the Truth and the confidence in his ability to manage anything other than his narrow attention to politics and how this affects his socialist agenda. From Benghazi to the IRS scandal he, the President, proclaimed he just didn’t know and furthermore, he’s not responsible. So he speaks to the people about how bad this is and blames, the Republicans, George Bush, The Congress, (take your pick) anyone and anybody but himself, when, it is totally his fault and responsibility for all these things.
Alexander K. McClure, in 1904 a writer and historian, in his book, Lincoln’s Yarns and Stories, recorded the following and it was about a conversation with Lincoln and a caller had at the White House. Lincoln had this to say about the people having confidence with their leaders:
“If you once forfeit the confidence of your fellow citizens, you can never regain their respect and esteem. It is true that you may fool all the people some of the time; you can even fool some of the people all the time; but you can’t fool all of the people all the time.”
How is it possible that anyone can still be fooled by this obviously flawed man?
