The Vainglorius God

Imagine, if you will, an America where heavy taxes and regulations on the wealthy create a growing ,prosperous economy, where businesses are booming and jobs plentiful.Imagine an America where downsizing our military, releasing terrorists from the soon to be closed Gitmo Bay Prison, and appeasing nations that sponsor terror creates a safer , more peaceful world , where Al Queda and ISIS are no longer relevant , or a major threat. Imagine an America where anti- gun regulations that restrict our Second Amendment rights actually prevent gun related crimes and murders.Imagine an America where Global Warming , not Al Queda or ISIS, is the number one threat to our nation's security, and the only way to solve it is through increased taxes on wealthy corporations . Imagine an America where college and the internet are free for everyone , and by making them free , our nation becomes stronger economically and better able to compete in the world market. Imagine an America where government controlled healthcare , green energy programs, and Amnesty for all illegals decreases our nation's debt, and brings prosperity and security to all Americans. Imagine an America where heavy regulations and restrictions on oil, coal, and gas production , and a veto threat on the XL pipeline actually increases America's oil, coal, and gas production, and at the same time , makes gas prices plummet drastically.Imagine an America that has a growing , prosperous economy, despite also having record setting unemployment. .And, last , but not least, Imagine an America where the President and the new Republican Majority work with each other to get things done, even in the face of repeated veto threats by the President himself.

This is the America that President Barack Hussein Obama envisions , and in fact , this is the America that he truly believes exists today,..right now.
This is the America that the President spoke of in his next to last State of the Union Address before both Houses, and the nation the other night.
This is the America that is now reaping the rewards and benefits from 6 years of socialist rule by President Obama and the Democrat Party.
A prosperous America.
A safer America .
A more secure America.
An energy efficient America.
An America that has triumphed over terrorism.
This is the America that Obama envisions , and during his State of the Union Address to the Nation, his vision was revealed to be reality.
Except, that it isn't reality.
Obama's vision of America under his rule is pure fantasy, with no substance at all.
Obama's speech was nothing more than leftist propaganda designed to rally his base for victory in 2016, establish his legacy, and to create a new excuse to push for more massive tax increases ,designed to fund his ever expanding entitlement programs, that do nothing except  expand government power.
The tax increases the President is calling for are massive indeed, and his socialist agenda as ambitious as ever. His vision for the future of America , and his call for even more taxes and spending remains bold, brazen, grandiose, visionary, wholly unrealistic, and deliberately destructive to our nation. The President announced that he has no more campaigns to run, which garnered enthusiastic applause from House Republicans in attendence. The President's smirking reply to the applause was sarcastic and cutting, "I know", he replied , "because I won 'em all".A quick comeback, which may or may not have been scripted .Indeed, it was reminescent  of that day  in 2009, when he told an unsupportive, combative Senator John McCain , "We won, and you lost".Both remarks had that same air of smug, arrogant confidence and dismissiveness.But , there is a difference. The McCain remark was in 2009, when the Democrats controlled the Presidency, the House, and the Senate. But , this is 2015.And, despite Obama's self confident arrogance , he is clearly not accepting the reality of his current situation.
The President, you see, has not,"won 'em all".He has lost , and lost big, in the 2010, and 2014 Midterms. In fact, the Democrat Midterm loss has given the Republican Party the biggest majority in both Houses since the 1920's , and the largest number of Republican controlled States in history.
The President's State of the Union Address is a dangerous fantasy, by a man whose grasp on political reality seems to be growing more tenuous by the day.
Nothing he proposed in his address will be passed by the Republicans .Not one new tax will be approved.Not one new entitlement , whether it's community college or WiFi related , will be passed by the Republican controlled Senate. Nothing the President envisions for the next two years will be accomplished.
For he is no longer in command of this nation, and has nothing to recommend him except his power to veto legislation. That will not be enough , apparently,for the once reticent Republican House and Senate Leadership has established a coup of sorts, and, in the wake of of the President's Address, has sent a clear message as to what the next two years will hold for Obama.House Speaker John Boehner , who caved on the cromnibus spending bill, Obamacare , and Amnesty, all before Christmas and the Republican takeover, is now in command of a record setting Republican majority , and has now made sure that the President knows it.
Without consulting the Commander in Chief  ,Speaker Boehner has invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before the new Republican House and Senate on the extreme threat that AlQueda and ISIS poses to the nation and the world. This is a threat that the President seems unwilling to even admit exists, and barely even mentioned it in his State of the Union Address.
But, this no longer matters. Speaker Boehner and the newly crowned Republican Majority have chosen grim , stark reality, over leftist fantasy.
The political gauntlet has been thrown.
The President's power has been usurped.
And, no pretended vision of America by a defeated , vainglorius, false god,can alter the course of America's destiny , now that it is firmly , and permanently,......under Republican control.
