YOU Cannot Afford to Let Rulers Play God

It's as simple as comprehending the sub rosa moral imperative of those who believe that the world is now overpopulated.

If you believe you can trust these fools at the top to decide whether or not you are useful enough to continue to breath, THEN you can afford to let them make that decision.

That's it.

• Trust that men will find you desirable and keep you alive for some arbitrary time at their discretion,

or

• Trust that God (or Nature) has ingrained in humanity such great drive to survive that you can band together to overcome the machinations of rulers to divide you, then overcome the pessimistic view of those who think your band is too large, and then dethrone those monsters.

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!

Push Back Now Or the Fight Later Will Be Worse

Today, in response to The price of a life in NZ? About 18 months at Crusader Rabbit, KG's coblogger, Redbaiter, opined on the continued incompetence of the New Zeeland system of justice.

This is my advice regarding about what to think of,  and how to react to, the degradation creeping into all Western courts.

For someone such as you or me, incompetence would be the correct charge Red.

But it's not incompetence when a killer can be viewed as an aid to the angel of death -- as this short prison sentence demonstrates.

When CS Lewis wrote in 1943 of the gradually more inhuman behavior we'd see come down in the democracies, he said it would start with a less brutal face. Then as Western decadence proceeded, their means and ends would become indistinguishable from that of the fascists he was fighting at the time.

The battle to come will be all that much worse the longer the uncertainty hangs over a critical mass of minds of their need to push back to survive on a personal level. Individuals must learn to work together and defeat the dissension constantly being sown amongst us by those seeking world power. The Statist open toleration of radical Leftists,  and fostering of seeming squeamishness in meting out justice, is an illusion that have "liberal" minds believing we "harsh and cold and prudish and theocracy-seeking" conservatives and classical liberals are the enemy.

There comes a time when  it slowly dawns on the liberal mind that it is not the Right, but the sly, Leftist-coddling, power seeking Statists who are the enemy of all. It behooves us all who see this spark of recognition arising in the liberal not to berate or make fun of the liberal, but to use that oppportunity to try to break through.

Almost everything on this blog has been an investment  in trying to find new ways to break through. "The second great commandment is almost as important as the first: Love thy neighbor as thyself."

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.

Statist Motto

I've been saying something like this for awhile now. And then it occurred to me that the motto of Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals could best be summarized as follows.

Tactical Usage:

What About Voter Fraud?

I'm really curious. I'd like readers to pass along a bit of information and to take a poll of those who hear it.

This evening I heard a rebroadcast on the local Salem Broadcasting affiliate of a Bill Bennett segment from (I guess) Wednesday or Thursday morning.

The rebroadcast, on what is called Weekend Journal, at around 10 minutes in, went something like this:

Bill Bennett:  Could a good GOP candidate have won the senate seat from Nevada?
Byron York: Exit polls were taken asking just one question "do you approve or disapprove of Harry Reid's performance as senator?" Disapprove was the answer of 55%. 

For the record, I have transcribed this more completely. It can be found below the break.

Harry Reid won reelection with 50% of the vote to Sharon Angle's 45%. Yet Bennett steers the argument (and York complies) to agree with his opinion that the loss was due to Angle being a poor candidate.

I do not care that Bennett has written wonderful volumes about American values and decency. When he backs the established order of professional politicians from whom he receives some degree of respect, I have to wonder how much he panders for them and how much he lives by what he preaches. I've discussed the danger from antidisestablishmentarians before.

You would think that 

• there were no stories of voting irregularities during the multi-week voting period. 
• that there were no stories of Nevada voting machines malfunctioning. 
• that there were no power outages at some polls. 
• that it wasn't revealed that SEIU members were in charge of servicing them.
• that the Harry Reid, and the Dems, and the SEIU are all beyond reproach. 
• Oh, and that we are all Pollyannas (like Mr. Bennett played that Wednesday morning).

Bill Bennett, Byron York, Salem Broadcasting

You know what I'd love to have? I'd love to have an unedited recording of Bill Bennett's telephone screener. I'd like to know exactly how many of the callers to his show that asked "What about voter fraud from the Reid backers?" were hung up on.

That leads me to the unofficial poll I'd like my readers to ask their friends who they believe will give them a frank answer.

"When discussing the Angle loss, in the light of the wide margin of dislike for Reid by people who had just voted, do you think it out of order to be considering massive vote rigging as the cause for the discrepancy between the vote result and the sentiment?"

Who reading this commentary doubts that if the roles were reversed -- the Republicans and Angle and a belligerently non-union group were responsible for the voting machines -- that the Democrats and Reid and all of Minitrue would not be covering the "fraud" 24/7? That would be all the news all the time even without the multiple reports of machine errors and the like.

Do you know what it is like in Zimbabwe? Robert Mugabe has held onto power while his former breadbasket of a country has been driven into starvation under his rule. In 2002, his own interior minister said that 7 million of 14 million Zimbabweans would starve. What population VOTES for a regime that openly plans like that? Since then, reports of voting irregularities increased with every vote. The rest of the world has simply watched as voter fraud and intimidation and even the brutal murder of the wife of his opponent has even affected Mr Mugabe. When he offered to step-down, the strongmen of his Zanu-PF party would have none of it. Now there is a bipartisan "sharing" of power (believe that?), but the destruction of a once productive country continues, and the death toll still mounts. That is what ignoring voter fraud has reaped.

Is it possible that such a sorry state could be visited upon us? How are we different when we do not raise a stink? Well, as long as you accept the word of leaders who act like those three monkeys in the face of reports of voter fraud, you know you can expect more of it.

Wrong-doers unpunished see no down-side to their wrong-doing.

Just when did conservatives decide it was wise to behave towards political wrong-doing like liberals behave toward violent criminals? I'm guessing in was back in 1960 when Richard Nixon didn't fight the theft of the votes in Chicago which provided just enough electoral votes for JFK to win the presidency.

When will we Americans learn not to sit back and not say a word and simply accept such Republican spinelessness?

Oh, that reminds me. What is the answer to this question: "Why do some Republicans who never seem to get angry in the face of Democratic slanders of them always become fierce tigers when confronted by real principled conservatives in their own party?" Is there really only one party?

Left Hands Washing Each Other

Where are the right hands guarantying balance?
Where are the voices suggesting that our financial enslavement to public employee "entitlements" is a major motivation for public employee willing involvement in voter fraud?

The GOP and talkradio's near silence on voter fraud -- still ongoing (in Bridgeport Connecticut for example) -- is outrageous. (Talkradio is filled with honorable men. They are all, all honorable men.)

The book Shakedown: The Continuing Conspiracy Against the American Taxpayer, by Steven Malanga of City Journal, reveals the power bestowed upon public employee unions. The following video exposes some of the threats directed against public elected officials. Pascal's Fervor sees the more disenfranchising aspects of such unscrupulous threats in light of whom is in charge of those paid to support elections.

"It's not who votes that count, but who counts the votes."

I expect you will find it chilling. I found it compelling for another, perhaps more emotional reason.

My affection for the continuing efforts of the man depicted below left pretty much assured my paying closer attention to author of the above video, depicted below right.

Time for Adults to Speak Up

In order to make the gains that the nation needs,America needs place considerable blame on George W Bush solely to prevent the Statist wing of the GOP from mucking it up again.

Yes Barrack Obama's "solutions" have only made matters worse, but that's because he is so obviously growing the state. At least Obama told us what he was doing -- Statism heavy. Bush sold his policies as "compassionate conservatism" -- Statism lite.

Come clean with what did Bush43 do that was in error, ill advised, malfeasance, and outright bad.
Beg forgiveness from God and the country and promise to fight to prevent further damage from such  destructive policies.

Discuss the many ways Americans have been led into slavery that has only begun to show itself and of which too many Americans remain ignorant.
Work towards reform of our financial system and restore our culture. Bring back the concept of the Melting Pot and kill multi-culturalism due its destruction to American culture -- love of liberty and limited government -- the very reason why the rest of the world's downtrodden always wanted to come here.
Bring back open scorn for men who would play God over the rights of other men.

Holding My Breath...

...over whether or not Obama and the Democrats pull off their imitation of Mugabe and Zanu-PF voter fraud. What will follow such an exceptionally brazen act -- say have I ever noted how brazen the "Progressive" Incrementals have become? -- will not be pretty.

Leftist Agitprop: agitating to provoke a reaction, then Minitrue propagandizes any reaction so the Statists can seize a bit more power.

The Self-Serving Manipulator

Appealing to greed and vanity, expert at false modesty, damning opponents with faint praise, misdirection, disingenuousness, dissembling, and sensing when he can get away with flat out lies. All well known traits of the demagogue.  But how many see it when it's employed? Ah, there's the rub.

In these times, when all America so needs to have the manipulation of the demagogue demonstrated, this, beginning at 8 minutes, is hard to surpass. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ab68AjRMKmA
Note: Shakespeare composed Antony's speech as overly broad, not to be convincing to the Roman mob, but to reveal to the audience the machinations of demagogues .

This is the easiest to hear and most effective of all the versions I could find. The film version, starring Marlon Brando as Mark Antony, IMO is not as good a teaching aid.

Much appreciation to MTS for his suggestion to follow-up my earlier post  with this post.
