The Obama Drama And The Mystique Of High Noon

Is this a serious discussion of raising the debt ceiling or the opportunity for a failing president to gain control of center stage in a desperate attempt to assert his authority and relevance before the 2012 election?

Obama seems to be playing the role of Marshal Kane straight from the movie High Noon, arguably one of the best films ever made. Filmed in 1952 at the height of Senator’s McCarthy claims of Communist agents within government and the entertainment industry, claims that were proven to be correct by the Verona Cables and declassification of KGB files, it is a movie that emphasizes the ideals of the strength of the individual in standing up to evil.

Don’t Call My Bluff?

The president told Eric Cantor “Don’t Call My Bluff”. Well, why wouldn’t you call someone’s bluff; especially, after they just told you they were bluffing.

The president has once again made a mockery of the IQ that is supposed to be off the charts, during the negotiations over raising the $14.3 trillion debt limit. His tough guy line that sounds more like a Pee Wee Herman character than line Gary Cooper; he obviously was off teleprompter.

The perviously unknown term “off teleprompter” has become the legendary period of time, when the real wit and wisdom of Obama shines through.
