Up until now, Barack Obama has never had to learn the meaning of the word no.  Whatever he wanted, he got, usually with little or no real effort.  The most consistent pattern to his life has been unearned rewards.  He was the first person with zero accomplishments elected President of the United States.  He even won the noble peace prize for doing nothing.  For the first four years of his presidency, Republicans were afraid to say no.  They were continually battered by self-inflicted wounds earned in battles they were afraid to fight. 

His demands with regard to sequestration were so absurd that even the spineless RINO Republicans were forced to say no.  The results have been immediate and earthshattering.

Like most spoiled brats who are finally told no, Barack Obama threw a hissy fit.  He campaigned around the country trying to blame Republicans for the sequestration plan that was actually his idea.  But a miracle happened.  This time even the main stream media didn’t buy his nonsense.  This time it was Barack Obama who had to back down.  Then Rand Paul stood alone on the Senate floor, unarmed and unafraid and said no again.  While RINOs like John McCain and Lindsey Graham tried desperately to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, it was Barack Obama who had to back down. 

Suddenly, almost without warning, the “Anointed One” has lost his force field.  Barack Obama looks all too human and more than a little vulnerable.  The rest of the world figured this out a long time ago.  Republicans have finally figured it out too.  I suspect a whole lot of people are asking themselves why they ever feared him.

I cannot predict what will happen next.  But I can predict that we are going to see a whole lot more:  “BO  NOs.”  Barack Obama will remain President of the United States for nearly four more years, but he is already a lame duck President and the ship of state is leaking power like a sieve.   

 “BO NO”s.  A beautiful thing
