As readers know ...I make mistakes - lots of them - just review my past New Year Predictions.
Another miss is coming up - my prediction that on the last days of Obama's Presidency the public would be riding him out of town on a rail. (an olde American expression meaning the towns-fold are fully disgusted with someone and want them go leave town).
Today, though, that is most unlikely - the little guy has a favourable rating of 53% which is astounding for a President in his last days of his second and final term in office.
What it tells me though is that more and more Americans - like citizens of other Nations in the West, are becoming more and more socialist ...takers as opposed to doers.
The USA still leads in doers - with some 47% to only a third 'doers' in other first world countries.
Those higher numbers indicate that if Obama was legally able to run for a third term, he might well just be successful.
Readers know full well that I view Obama as the very worst President ever. Not surprising though, given the above stats, when I speak with my follows about Obama, most refer to him as a very great President.
So in my ongoing attempt to bring reason to this debate I submit the following analysis of the little guy ...from someone other than myself:
America, under Obama, has passed the status of world financial centre back to London, persecuted law-abiding financial companies and their senior personnel, and assured sluggishness of the entire sector ...
Stimulus money did not improve education outcomes ... and it funded shovel ready boondoggles of the Democratic congressional barons..
The green energy initiatives that have paid dividends were an egregious waste of money deployed to the now vanished bogeyman of global warming..
Obama's health care measures was dishonestly presented with two thirds of Americans wanting it repealed...
He should not have given control of General Motors and Chrysler to the United Auto Workers who were far from blameless for their parlous condition...
He has done almost nothing for African Americans ...
Obama quadrupled the money supply under the spurious cover of quantitative easing and maintaining minimal interest rates by selling trillions of dollars of unbought bonds to the Federal Reserve - a 100 per cent subsidiary for the Treasury paid for by the issuance of notes. It is a shell game that would be attacked in the private sector...
And if this what not bad enough Obama's efforts on the Global Front fared even worse as the author explains:
Obama has allowed the Western Alliance to atrophy...
He has failed to render any assistance to the Ukraine..
He has ensured the disintegration of the of Iraq and the near capture of Bagdad by the Islamic State..
He drew a red line against the Assad Regime for gassing its own civilian population and then abdicated military command ...to the Russians..
Obama's pledge to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear military power evolved into a green light ...
The piece de resistance has been blundering into the position of having Iran and Russia as allies against ISIL
The Author of this piece .... why none other than The Baron of Cross Harbour ... the Honourable Conrad Black.
I could add even more glaring examples of Obama's complete incompetency - for instance - all of the Middle East is Burning...but I won't...maybe I will provide a full recital of his abysmal record at a later date.
For now, suffice to say - regardless what I or even Baron Black has to say - the majority seem to see Obama as the great secular messiah.
They can have him - give me a Churchill any day of the week.
As I see it...

OBAMA ... AS DITSY AS EVER... A 2 PARTER
FIFTY OR SO YOUNG PEOPLE IN ORLANDO WERE SHOT BY A DERANGED KILLER MOTIVATED BY ISIS.
Those are the facts, unless you are the little guy in the White House ..and when I say 'little guy' I am not talking about his stature - since that does not matter one iota ... rather I am speaking about his small, petty, mindedness.
It took the little guy most of his Presidency to even admit that 'terrorists' existed but he has never ever said who these terrorists might be. Again, it could be raging grannies if of course the grannies were killers which they are not.
As you and I know full well ...The Killers are Islamists !!
And how do we know this particular attack?
The killer himself called 911 and said that he was slaughtering these innocents in the name of Islam.
His dear dad said it was not Islamic related but bear in mind that he is a member in good standing with the Taliban and in fact is hoping to become Afghanistan's next President.
And for the record, the Taliban has publicly announced that it is an off-shoot of ISIS.
Even Dear Hillary, in the aftermath of Orlando, now admits that Islamic Terrorists exist.
Finally, someone of rank in the US Administration has called out the Killers by name.
But failings are not confined just to Obama.
Trump comes out swinging demanding Obama's resignation for failing to deal harshly with the Islamic Devils. His timing though stinks. He should be joining with his fellow Americans in mourning the loss of so many - over 100 casualties, nearly half of whom died.
There is a time for mourning and a time for action and right now leaders should mourn this tremendous loss of life - the worst in American history caused by a gunman.
Trump's response is too much .. self-interest.
The other group I find trying to wring too much self-interest out of this event is the Gay Community itself which whines that here again they are victims of American Homophobia.
Quite the contrary. The vast majority of Americans, as with you readers, are aghast and horrified at what happened. If anything this incident proves that the Gay Communities has become fully integrated and accepted into American Society.
It is nonetheless a very sad occasion but the overall gay community should be most impressed and most grateful for the outpouring of sympathy from American Society in general.
And there is one final person with whom I have a bone to pick.. Orlando's Chief of Police.
Here he is yesterday hogging the mike to announce that were it not for his force, the number of casualties would have been much higher.
B.S. to that - as indicated, casualties exceeded 100, the gunman was allowed to fire on the innocent for hours - reloading and continuing to fire numerous times.
One gunman and against an army of Orlando Cops and this is the best they could do? I dare say Orlando needs a new Chief.
A Tragedy occurred in Orlando and a lot of needless politically correct hot aired followed.
As I see it...
