As we all bash Barack Obama for leading America down an irreversible path to European-style social democracy, it is important to stop and remember that he is just one man…one man who requires the assent of millions of voters to allow him to do what he has done. In that spirit, consider this quote attributed to the newspaper Czech Republic Observer. While I have been unable to confirm the source, the content is nevertheless worthy and profound.
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their president.”
