Obama is a smoker. That's not a huge deal to most people. However, him lying about it is. Why? Because Black America has done such a thorough job of idolizing Obama that character defects such as vain posturing (which I will discuss another time) and crafting empty promises as answers to straight questions go unnoticed and therefore unquestioned.During his latest appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press" program, Tom Brokaw accused Obama of having ducked answering a question posed by Barbara Walters during an interview last month.
After remarking that the White House was a no-smoking zone, Brokaw asked Obama, "Have you stopped smoking?"
"I have," Obama replied, after giving one of those big smiles that lets you know he's about to lie or spin something. "What I said was that there are times where I have fallen off the wagon."
"Wait a minute," Brokaw interjected, "that means you haven't stopped."
Now here's the good part:
"Fair enough," Obama said. "What I would say is that I have done a terrific job under the circumstances of making myself much healthier. You will not see any violations of these rules in the White House."
What? You admit to lying but then congratulate yourself for doing so well despite your lies and failures?
Watch the video footage and you will hear Obama concede that he was dishonest for yourself.
Now I know that the morally degenerate will say, "So, what?" when confronted with this lie. They don't think that such a "small lie" could say anything significant about a person's character. The truth of the matter, however, is that it speaks volumes.
My mama uses an old Black adage, "If you'll lie, you'll steal; and if you'll steal, you'll kill." I know your mother or grandmother probably said the same thing. I used to think mama was full of it; but then I grew up and began to see what was really going on. Anyone who is willing to tell a lie to avoid punishment or judgment will do whatever they feel they have to in order to preserve themselves discomfort or disgrace, which can often involve stealing or even murder.
Think about it...
So what does the cigarette lie (and subsequent self-elevation) say about Obama's character to me?
It says to me that if he will lie about something as stupid as breaking his smoking habit, he SURELY will lie about much more important issues, like taxation, terrorist threats, and just about every other issue that's important when you're THE LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD!
Black America, you can't continue to hypocritically judge this man by the color of his skin while whitewashing the content of his character. No one is perfect, but some character flaws are just too big to be typical of a leader as powerful as the President of the United States. The only thing that Obama's experience in politics has proven consistently about his character is his lack of integrity. He will flip flop on anything - even his own assertion that he would not run for President in 2008 because he didn't have enough experience (watch that video clip here)
Unless God helps me, I'm going to be the one right in your face saying, "I told you so" when he runs this administration into the ground. I'm calling the end of 2010 when the house of cards begins to fall...
