Evil, Not Stupid

The lines at the end of this xtranormal creation are as clear as a bell to those of us who understand the dangers of large government. It naturally occurs in the arrogance and stupidity of those who think they can rule millions and billions of people. But it also lies in the evil of those schemers who have been telling the wannabe rulers that "you are the best and brightest," and so they must resist the temptation to listen to the common sense of the people.

[If the following video is NOT "Why Obamacare Was Ruled Unconstitutional" please notify me. Blogger has put something else there once, and so could do so again.]

Lefty: What upsets me the most is that the judges are the ones stopping ObamaCare.

Freeman: What's the difference?

L: Judges are supposed to be on my side.

F: Always?

L: Yes. The court system is supposed to be filled with liberals like me and act as a fail-safe in case the voters disagree with us.

F: That doesn't sound like democracy.

L: Democracy is over-rated. People are dumb and need to be guided by the best and brightest.

F: So you think people are too stupid to make their own choices; unless they work for the government, in which case they are brilliant enough to make choices for everyone.

L: Yes.

F: I guess I'm still waiting for the best and brightest to show up.

L: Sorry. People like Obama and myself are as good as it gets.

These lines are meant to be funny. What's makes them laughable is the utterly unlearning from failure, knee-jerk doctrinal responses of Lefty.

But what if they're willing to look stupid just so long as they can implement the dangerous policies?  Then we are witnessing evil and not stupidity, and evil must be fought. Evil intentions are no laughing matter.

Left undeterred, the forces that are attempting to implement ObamaCare will pick off individuals one at a time.

Let me say that there was one interchange that did make me laugh though:

L: I can't understand how ObamaCare lost in court. Didn't Obama say he used to teach Constitutional Law?

F: Yes; but he never said he was good at it.

Clapper of The Dilbert Principle Presidency

This is Day 38 since I recognized that Barack Hussein Obama was the Dilbert Principle President.

Think of a pretty bell.
Then think of a pretty bell that few people know is cracked.
Then think of someone yanking the clapper on that bell.

Imagine the dull thud.

Then imagine the pained expressions of those who had expected something resonant.

I suggest that this captures the essence of how the world has reacted to how much Director of National Intelligence (irony) James Clapper was uninformed.



Stunned Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper.

I'm torn. I'm not sure if I feel more sorry for our country or for this poor man.

Day 26: Clinton Proves Obama the Dilbert Principle Prez

It's been less than a month since it occurred to me that Obama is The Dilbert Principle President.
So today, Bill Clinton underscores my observation. [h/t Drudge]

So please, let me get this out of my system.

F I R S T

For a good update,

Day 25: Watchers for "Excellence in Journalism": NOT

Dammit!

If only they were to quote me IN context, there might yet be hope for the old Fourth Estate.

In an anonymously penned story "Leaked Documents Drive the Online Conversation," it was pointed out

"bloggers that responded largely agreed with [the mainstream press], voicing criticism of Obama and of government overall." 

Basically saying that most stories charged the Obama administration with incompetence in the Wikileaks scandal.

But then the story went on:

Some bloggers chose to blame the media. “It is craven malfeasance that nobody in the Fourth Estate has issued a mea culpa for their failure of duty in service to this republic,” wrote Pascal Fervor.

Well the irony here is so thick there is no way I could let this go by without notice.

This story, published by Journalism.org, "Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism" quoted me out of context. I did not blame the media for Wikileaks, I blamed them for helping elect as president the incompetent Obama.

The rhetorical title of my commentary that day was quite clear Day 14: Are Those Who Hid Obama's Incompetence Blameless? And for the perennial obtuse for whom it was not clear, the opening lines were explicit.

It's been 2 weeks since I asked:

President Obama: What competence have you to prove to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President?

So now Wikileaks demonstrates how clueless, weakness, helplessness and impotent, and incompetent Obama has been in office, and it is craven malfeasance that nobody in the Fourth Estate has issued a mea culpa for their failure of duty in service to this republic.

Had Journalism.org reiterated my point, it would have been to emphasize that the media GAVE US the highly praised but unprecedentedly unvetted Obama for whom to vote into office in November 2008.

NO "excellence in journalism" writer. I was not blaming the media for Wikileaks, I was blaming them for hiding Obama's incompetence for so many years.

Again I reiterate for all the blogosphere: your importance as the new fourth estate becomes more real every day the usual suspects scheme to shut you down.

All the Pew's horses and all the Pew's men cannot bring mainstream press's honor again.

Day 15: Obama's Incompetence Continues Sans MSM Note

Marking 15 days since we requested

prove to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President

So today we have Prez Obama appearing after the White House summit with the incoming GOP delegation. We are told that he and they spoke of what it would take to make things work in the coming year.

Now if I am correct, and this is indeed the Dilbert Principle President5, it should surprise nobody that he opined on his just concluded discussion USING A TELEPROMPTER.

Not hard to conclude that he went in with a script, and it had not changed afterward; not one iota.

So for your perusal, and to prove my point to those still skeptical, here is our national puppet:

Day 14: Are Those Who Hid Obama's Incompetence Blameless?

It's been 2 weeks since I asked:

President Obama: What competence have you to prove to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President?

So now Wikileaks demonstrates how clueless, weakness, helplessness and impotent, and incompetent Obama has been in office, and it is craven malfeasance that nobody in the Fourth Estate has issued a mea culpa for their failure of duty in service to this republic. With the Washington Post allowing someone to opine on their pages that Obama has been weak on the Wikileaks matter, it would sell a hell of a lot of papers were they to disclose what they really think of him losing the midterm elections.

Dammit you collectively worthless journOlists, this man was never properly vetted!

Judging from all the documents by and of Obama kept under lock and key as if they needed secret service protection, it is clear the man NEVER had any experience at being competent. This is, after all, the Dilbert Principle President.

Journalists of America and the world -- I lay the blame for this at your doorstep.

Cowards that you are, you will not contest the charge with me.


                      

In Nutshells
The Peter Principle	The Dilbert Principle
Managers   move up in any hierarchy until reaching their level of incompetence.	Managers are placed at their level  of incompetence having no inkling of what is competent whatsoever.

Day 11: Has Obama Ever Experienced Competence?

Each day since I launched the inquiry

President Obama: What of significance -- besides your great speechifying in front of properly working teleprompters -- demonstrates to the world your great competence at tackling tough problems in the past? We'd like to be reassured that you have a chance at tackling the great challenges currently facing America.  What proof have you that you are not The Dilbert Principle President?

there's been little to suggest that anyone else is willing to take on the scorn with which such an inquiry is sure to be greeted once the Minitrue is forced to no longer ignore it.

The primary reason that Minitrue continues to dominate the political scene is it owns the major airwaves. Its message is directed at passive viewers for whom there is no true avenue through which the viewers may disagree. But it will not remain that way once we in the blogosphere take our role as the New Fourth Estate seriously. The viewers will hear of what we're saying, and they'll see it for themselves. Shine the light and truth will out.

Surely forcing the MSM to respond to this campaign, demonstrating how lame they have been regarding Barack Obama, would prove it to ourselves.

We are a but a short way off from that now.  It is true that it seems few yet see how easy this could be would we dare to be the informational revolutionaries that this medium still allows.

But the opportunity may not last. Net neutrality could come at any time. Do what you can today. Please, dear Lord, help more to see the open door.

Day 10: Where Is Proof You've Ever Known Competence Mr Obama?

Ten days and still no answer.

President Obama: What of significance -- besides your great speechifying in front of properly working teleprompters -- demonstrates to the world your great competence at tackling tough problems in the past? We'd like to be reassured that you have a chance at tackling the great challenges currently facing America.  What proof have you that you are not The Dilbert Principle President?

We are the new fourth estate Right bloggers. Ask the hard questions that MSM Minitrue wankers would never ask. You can't wait for Fox news to ask.

Just as the TEA party doesn't trust any establishment party types, we can't trust any journalists, editorialists or talkshow hosts who have regular paid gigs to make the challenges that must be made.

Day 9: What of Substance Is Obama's?

Nine days, and still no answer to.

President Obama: What of significance -- besides your great speechifying in front of properly working teleprompters -- demonstrates to the world your great competence at tackling tough problems in the past? We'd like to be reassured that you have a chance at tackling the great challenges currently facing America.  What proof have you that you are not The Dilbert Principle President?

Speaking of incompetence (if not sell-outs), where are the questioners who are willing to pursue the questions they themselves raise and then dismiss (as Dick Morris did yesterday).

Well, there is hope again.

At Reason.com there is this story and video interview of Richard Epstein about Obama when he was at an adjunct faculty member at the U of Chicago. Thanks for the tip from LOTM who notes:

"Epstein has pushed as hard against the official line regarding Obama as a member of the Chicago faculty can. Obama was hired as an Adjunct directly by Geoffrey Stone, who was Dean of the Law School and later Provost of the University. When Stone stepped down from that position Obama's somewhat unusual connection with the school ended... The school went to great lengths during the 2008 campaign to endorse Obama as if he was a real faculty member, even though he never went through a faculty hiring review or participated in the intellectual life of the University."

Nobody "knows nothing" about Obama's achievements. We suspect it's because there are none of note.

Come on Right Bloggers. Join me in this. Take down the fraudulent media by thoroughly exposing Obama's lack of substance and that mainstream media is no longer the fourth estate. They are the unindicted co-conspirators of the Statists who pull Obama's strings.

We are the fourth estate Right bloggers. Do your duty.

Day 8: Obama's Alleged Competentence: Where's the Beef?

Well, here it is Day 8 since I launched my campaign of inquiry.

President Obama: What competence have you to prove to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President?

And today I have evidence, provided by Libsarenavelint who posted at Neanderpundit today a link to a Dick Morris column Who Is Barack Obama?

Once again the title, rather than the substance of the column, is more in the direction I'd like to see popular "Right" columnists go.

Mr. Morris begins his review of a recent Bill O'Reilly book asking who the Prez is. And then he gladdens my heart when he writes of Mr. O'Reilly:

...He lambasts the president's management style, but never his core beliefs.

But then he does not take the inevitable next step and call into sharper question the man's intellect and ability.

Oh wow, finally. Right?

Sadly no. The next sentence reads:

After all, the alternative explanation -- that he's dumb -- lacks credibility.

Mr. Morris' argument is that Mr. Obama pulled together this great campaign, so there's his intelligence for all to see. I'm sorry Mr. Morris. The man relies heavily on his teleprompter to put together his words. He is carefully shepherded by his staff from too many ad hoc interviews to say nothing of the man's complete avoidance of hostile questioners. In far too many instances, this man of words can't find any when he either lacks his teleprompter or it malfunctions.

No Mr. Morris, the man could very well be what so many dare not conclude, but which is a very strong possibility. Mr. Obama is a carefully controlled puppet. He could very well have no significant intelligence. This is why this campaign I'm pressing is so important. That is the strongest explanation as to why all of Mr Obama's past records -- not just his original birth certificate -- are carefully sealed, and he spends tremendous sums of money to legally keep them away from prying eyes.

Come on Right bloggers. We've got to press harder!

Day 7: Has Mr Obama Ever Proven His Competence?

Where? Where is the proof that Mr Obama ever has experienced earned success? That he has personal knowledge of what makes one competent? Where? When? How? With all those school records and Harvard Law School papers under lock and key, how competent could Obama ever have been?

Where's the Beef?

I've been asking this question for a week, and I finally got a well-known, Right blogger to come up with another title that fits this subject. Unproven by Richard Fernandez at the Belmont Club.

Well, the title is suggestive at least. In the right direction as it were.

Well, back to the task at hand.

Mr. Obama: what significant achievement demonstrates that you know what it means to be competent? To what achievements can you point  that demonstrate your competence besides running your mouth with a teleprompter as crutch?

President Obama: What competence have you to prove to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President?

***Welcome Neanderpundit.com readers. The Dilbert Principle President explains how this campaign came about and why the attribution needs to come from the Right (filled with competent workers) rather than from the Left (filled with overschooled incompetents) who'll botch the recognition.

In Nutshells
The Peter Principle	The Dilbert Principle
Managers move up in any hierarchy until reaching their level of incompetence.	Managers are placed at their level  of incompetence having no inkling of what is competent whatsoever.

Day 6: Obama, Have You Ever Experienced Competence?

Nobody to my knowledge but yours truly lone fool blogger has asked this direct question.

Mr. Obama: what significant achievement demonstrates that you know what it means to be competent? To what achievements can you point  that demonstrate your competence besides running your mouth with a teleprompter as crutch?

President Obama: What competence have you to prove to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President.

Still no answer. Still a lone voice asks the question.

The Left blogs will awaken to this empty suit soon, and the Right blogs, having been afraid to look foolish, will not like the consequences when the Left unleashes.

Day 5: Obama, What Did You Ever Do of Significance?

Why is it still so that nobody but this lone fool of a blogger has asked this question?

Mr. Obama: what significant achievement demonstrates that you know what it means to be competent? To what achievements can you point  that demonstrate your personal competence besides running your mouth with a teleprompter as crutch?

President Obama: What competence have you to prove to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President.

Yes the mainstream press is completely in bed with Obama. But why have the conservative blogs chosen only satire and sarcasm to point out this Prez' lack of accomplishments? Why not make this challenge directly? Is it cowardice? The Left blogs will awaken to this empty suit soon, and the Right will not like the consequences when they do.

Day 4: World, What Competence Has Obama Ever Demonstrated?

What a bunch of hacks we have in journalism. Journolists all. And some of the Right wing blogs are not off the hook either. Facetious remarks and sarcastic commentary, sure. Obama's behavior satirized in cartoons and skits, sure. That's become way too ineffective folks. As the Left constantly demonstrates, they can pervert ways to read sarcasm so as to see only what they choose to see.

Why has nobody yet found the nerve to repeat this question?

Mr. Obama: what significant achievement demonstrates that you know what it means to be competent? To what achievements can you point  that demonstrate your personal competence besides running your mouth with a teleprompter as crutch?

President Obama: Please demonstrate to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President.

It's bad enough I failed to put the thought to words sooner, like back when he was running for President after he'd clinched the Democratic Party nomination. But what is preventing others on the Right from picking up on this campaign. Are you all waiting for when the Left feels they haven't gotten enough out of Obama, and they decide to throw him under his own bus? Are you waiting for the Left to ask this question? I really don't think anyone will like the outcome if this question starts coming from the Left unless the Left has first been thoroughly embarrassed by the Right.

Day 3: Obama, What Competence Have You Demonstrated?

I'm still expecting answers:
President Obama: Zero
Mainstream Journalists: Zero
Big Bloggers: Zero
Blogs in general: 2

What is the answer to this question that no mainstream journalist ever asked him.

What significant achievement demonstrates that you know what it means to be competent? To what achievements can you point  that demonstrate your personal competence besides running your mouth with a teleprompter as crutch?

Please President Obama: demonstrate to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President.

As one commenter noted succinctly:

"Truth to tell, Obama is the poster boy for incompetence."

Mainstream journalists: Fill the vacuum you have left hanging out there. Provide us the evidence of Obama's great accomplishments.

What about the rest of the blogs? You are going to continue to let mainstream "journalists" duck their responsibility in saddling us with this disaster? Let's hear this question from more blogs.

Day 2: Obama, WTF Did You Ever Do of Significance?

I'm still expecting from President Obama the answer to this question that no mainstream journalist ever asked him.

WTF did you ever achieve of significance prior to rising to national attention that demonstrates that you know what competence means, what competence is? To what personal achievements can you point  that demonstrates your competence besides running your mouth with a teleprompter as crutch?

Please demonstrate to the world how you are not The Dilbert Principle President.

The Dilbert Principle President

Follow ups to this post are collected here.

How is it possible that after 21 months of ineptitude under Barack Hussein Obama that a Google search on "The Dilbert Principle President" only turns up one hit?

Note that this single instance is an off-hand reference to GWBush in an obscure stream of comments about John Kerry.

Here's the short explanation of the Dilbert Principle and the Peter Principle from which it was derived.
                        

In Nutshells
The Peter Principle	The Dilbert Principle
Managers   move up in any hierarchy until reaching their level of incompetence.	Managers are placed at their level  of incompetence having no inkling of what is competent whatsoever.

Haven't we all been been insulted enough by mainstream journalists who have not uncovered regarding President Obama:

• A single transcript from any institution of learning regarding BHO.
• A single paper written by BHO while editor of the Harvard Law Review.
• Hell -- A single graded paper of BHO from any level of school.
• Who helped BHO write two best-selling books prior to his elevation to the national spotlight.
• Who prepaid for the early copies of his first book so that it became a best-seller before anybody ever heard of BHO.

I could go on.

And this lack of investigation comes to you from the same "impressive" sources, the majority of whom still think that Dan Rather's falsification of a GWBush ANG evaluation was fake but accurate.

I know why you can't find -- until today -- any reference to Barack Obama as the Dilbert Principle President. It is because the whole circling-down-the-drain country is so Politically Correct Cowered that the emperor is permitted to continue to destroy the country without him having to prove he has a stitch of success at anything every other president has been raked over the coals to prove at least somewhat.

WTF have you done before you were elected President that was of any significance, you goddamn puppet of God-knows-who special interests?

I'm so disgusted with the lack of candor on this subject that I'm strongly considering revising my new definition of PC from Politically Cowered to Political Cowards.
