Krauthamer headlined his editorial Saturday first with a question, "Does the president lie?" followed by, "No, but he implies and misleads". Of course Obama lies, but Krathamer is being too fair. Further on in the editorial Krauthamer states, "Mr. Obama doesn't lie. He merely elides, gliding from one dubious assertion to another. This has been the story throughout his whole health-care crusade."
Actually, it's the essence of his entire career, as he glides, slides, slimes his way from one dubious assertion (lie) to the next. He is more slime eel than heal in his assertions, while he blames conservatives for trying to nail him down to each lie regarding his new, raw deal. So, I have one more name for our emperor with no clothes: President or Emperor Elides (it rhymes with he lies, you lie!). Krauthamer and Rep. Joe Wilson are too diplomatic in their conclusions.
President Elides today elided and slimed his way through a speech to the U.N., where he flitted around, blaming America for everything before he was elected. He debased himself and America while becoming the opening act for someone he wants to become, Col. Mummified Cadaver of Libya. Col. Cadaver is another of Obama's mentors the Dictator-in-Training is today pledging to, hoping to join them as a full frat rat fellow in the Dictators' Club known as the U.N.. By doing so, he has just elided himself right into the dust bin of history.
