Janet Napolitano, and Barry Obama, have been appointing devout Muslims to Homeland Security posts. One of those appointments was Arif Alikhan as Assistant Secretary for Policy Development. The other was Kareem Shora, who was born in Damascus, Syria. He was appointed by DHS Secretary Napolitano onto the Homeland Security Advisory Council.

How stupid can these people be? How is it they can see no problem appointing devout Muslims to critical Homeland Security positions? Remember, it was men of the "Devout Muslim Faith" that flew planes into U.S. buildings on 9/11, and it is men of the "Devout Muslim Faith" that still to this day conducts terror attacks around the world.

Let's not forget that Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter, was also trusted to be involved with Homeland Security functions - and we know how that ended.

Not just satisfied with Big Government takeovers of the automobile industry, the financial sector, and a healthcare system that totals one-sixth of the U.S. economy, the Obama administration is now moving on to surreptitiously gaining control of the Internet.

A non-profit watchdog group recently uncovered documents from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that show officials at the FCC colluded with the radical leftist Free Press organization to publicly push a new plan to regulate the Internet under the FCC’s so-called “net neutrality” program.

If it wasn't so serious, it would be funny.

Every single thing the liberals say and do has gotten to the point that I shake my head at the poor dummies, and wonder how it could possibly be true that they do, say, or believe the things they do, say and believe. Everything about the liberals are a contradiction, or backwards stance. Even the truth, with evidence attached, slapping them in the face is not enough to break them from their trance. What they do, if applied anywhere else, would be either illegal, or unacceptable behavior. Yet, in the world of liberals, and big government, they see absolutely nothing wrong with their insanity.

Let's take a few cases in point.

Obama's recent news conference where he "scolded" the Republicans:

All of the headlines use words like "presses," "scolds," and "rebuked" when referring to the recent press conference temper tantrum by Barry Obama. Ol' Big Ears was trying to sound tough so that he can look like the adult, and the only words of reason against those evil Republicans. Instead, Obama made himself look like an idiot, and once again show how out of touch he is with reality, the country, and even the words he has said in the past.

Liberals also claim to be in support of a woman's choice, unless of course that choice is to keep the baby and be against abortion. Some choices are just considered unacceptable to those pro-choice purveyors of the murder of babies.

In schools, or at least I was told recently about this in Murrieta schools, gay couples are allowed to show public display of affection on campus, yet if heterosexual couples do the same, they suffer punishment because a public display of affection beyond holding hands is not allowed.

They claim to be about equality, but if that isn't preferential treatment, I don't know what is.

Of course the liberals see nothing wrong with this. Their madness blinds them of the truth.

Finally, Obama claimed that he would end the lobbyists grip on Washington. Yet, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's ties to lobbyist groups may include government corruption, fraud and unethical behavior.

If she were a Republican, it would be all over the media. In the case of Hillary, the State Department has been working to conceal her treachery.

Madness.

Narcissism has become the order of the day in our society. We have taught our children to believe they are the best, can't do no wrong, and we bend over backwards to keep from hurting their poor little feelings; then when they get to adulthood they find out that life is a harsh journey. As adults all of that self-esteem crap means nothing, and they find out that because they were never allowed to fail, or face consequences, they are incapable of defending themselves emotionally. As a result we have seen an uptick in suicides, and violence. Another key consequence has been narcissism to a level we have never experienced before.

During the Casey Anthony trial, where the woman is accused of killing her own child, whenever her child was mentioned Casey remained stone faced - but when Casey was talked about, such as when she was called a liar, she broke out in tears.

The life of Casey Anthony is all about Casey Anthony. The answers to the questions in her life is "whatever benefits Casey most." She has become so narcissistic that she cannot see the difference between right and wrong anymore.

This kind of narcissism exists throughout our society. The younger generation spends all of their time using language to make themselves look big, not realizing their self-gratiating language actually makes them look small.

It goes beyond the old "ten foot tall and bullet proof" teenage attitude. It has become an epidemic that has erupted into violence in our cities worse than we have seen before. We think we are bigger than we are. Tougher than we are. We demand respect that we are unwilling to give any respect.

The worst cases of this kind of narcissism believe they have it all figured out, but while they think they are the brightest star in the room, they also believe they live in a world of morons - superiority complex gone wild. And when they don't get what they want, they lash out, or become cry babies about it.

Our underdeveloped president is a great example.

Obama has led nothing. He has no experience. He was a community organizer, and a Senator that voted "present" most of the time. I don't even think he ever ran a lemonade stand. And since he has never been the head of anything, nor has made any decisions of which he could blame others regarding the outcome, Obama has never had to pay the consequences for his political decisions, and he's not about to now. He talks to his opponents as if he is their superior, scolding the Republicans as if he is not to be questioned. Obama sees himself as a ruler, not a servant of the people.

During his recent press conference he came across as a ten-year old yelling at the class for picking on him, and then proclaiming to be the smartest kid in the room.

He is nothing of the sort.

Obama blames others in times of failure, and claims full credit when he believes something has succeeded.

Obama is hellbent on raising taxes, and if the GOP refuses to go along, he simply claims the Republicans are trying to sabotage the economy. We are experiencing the destruction of the U.S. Economy by Obama and the Democrats, and as they did to get Obama elected, they are pointing fingers at everyone but themselves. In fact, every time Obama claims the problems are the result of "the last ten years," it is apparent that he still blames Bush for everything (despite the fact that during the Bush years this nation experienced great prosperity, and the economy didn't fail until the liberals gained control of Congress).

The misery we are experiencing is not the fault of anyone but Obama and the Democrats. This is what happens when unfettered liberalism has control for a couple years.

Obama has even gotten to the point where he believes he is above even needing to talk to the GOP. He recently snubbed McConnell and the Senate Republicans, saying that it was a "conversation not worth having."

He must think he's above talking to what he considers to be the little people.

He wasn't even willing to talk with Congress, or his military leaders, before running to the UN and NATO to get involved in Libya.

When one believes he should have ultimate power, the advice of others is something ignored.
