What I want to know is, how did Hans Christian Andersen know about
Barack Obama more than a century ago?

Obama is straight out of Andersen's classic fairly tale, "The
Emperor's New Clothes."

Old Hans Christian, who lived in Denmark from 1805 to 1875, had
Obama's number down pat. All he needed was a good grasp of human
nature.

Nothing has changed.

Pretentious frauds still parade down the boulevards of Copenhagen and
Washington, D.C., and only little kids notice their nakedness. Nobody
dares to snicker, for fear of being called a bad name. (You know the
bad name everybody is afraid of being called today.)

But there's no "there" there. Not a single, solitary rag of clothing.

Barack Obama has the least amount of relevant experience of any
major party candidate in the last hundred years.

He just makes it up as he goes along, with sublime arrogance.

If he wanted to be interviewed for President of General Electric they
wouldn't give him the time of day; but President of the United States?
No problem!

Obama is a total stage prop, a media fiction, a complete unknown, a
rolling stone.

The Emperor is seduced by his own grandiosity.

Whenever he blows another elementary fact about the world, his staff
just gives him a quick heads-up to tell him what to say next.

He's like a bad actor who flubs his lines every single time, just
expecting the others to give him his cues. And the ink-stained
wretches of the media always give him a pass. Their editors would give
them hell if they said anything bad.

Just one little example. On May 19 Senator Obama proclaimed Iran to be
just "a tiny country." That's a tiny country with seventy million
people, half of it covered with mountains that you can tunnel under
for your nuclear hidey holes. A half-million men in the army plus the
fanatical martyrs of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, a domestic
terror apparatus to keep the people down, a growing nuclear and
missile program, enough oil to finance it all, a strategic position at
the head and the tiny choke-point of the Persian Gulf, a long, long
imperial tradition, and an Islamofascist suicide ideology, thanks to
Jimmy Carter's good friend Ayatollah Khomeini. The regime of this tiny
country had a habit of sending hundreds of young boys to blow up mine
fields with their bodies, wearing green plastic "Keys to Paradise"
around their necks. It controls the "Shiite Crescent" from Lebanon to
the Gulf using its powerful alliance with Syria and Hezb'allah,
supplied by our good friends the Russians and Chinese. The regime has
a habit of blowing up American soldiers in Iraq with state-of-the-art
shaped-charge explosives. Iran has performed high-altitude missile
tests that could only be used to set off a nuclear EMP explosion,
designed to cripple any modern nation by zapping its electrical and
communication grids. It's just a "tiny threat," said Obama --- until
his staff told him that wasn't quite right, and he quickly changed his
tune.

If George W. Bush had ever been this blind, the media would have torn
him into bloody shreds by now. We've seen them trying for eight years.

But the Emperor is protected ---- for now, until the actual debates
---- from hard questions; when he blunders into them he just "uhs,"
"ahs," and stammers and stumbles.

The media give him two or three guesses before he has to settle on his
firm convictions -- for that day -- and then he flips and flops again
as soon as he feels like it.

This is sheer, open incompetence.

Even Bill Clinton is saying it.

He's right.

Hell, half of the Democratic Party apparatus knows it.

They aren't fooled.

They're just hoping the rest of us stay fooled.

They are -- and will be -- wrong.

Again

Obama's millions of immature O'bots are utterly self-deluded, but then
they're not mental heavyweights anyway.

The O'bots have their eyes shut tight, because looking at the reality
of their idol is just too scary for liberals in denial.

O'bots live in Hope and Hype; reality is not their strong suit.

They just yearn to see His Imperial Majesty's royal crown, his purple
robes, his golden sceptre, his bejeweled throne. But it's all self-
hypnosis. Scratch the Obama thin veneer of hype for a second and it
peels off before your very eyes.

Don't think the rest of the world doesn't know it.

You can bet that Ahmadinejad and Vladimir Putin are getting complete
reports from some very smart spies, including professional evaluations
of Barack Obama and his madcap advisors.

Dictators who live by destroying every possible threat are not in the
business of getting those things wrong. As soon as they get the
chance, they will push and push until the Obama mirage crumbles.

That's what the Ayatollah Khomeini did to Jimmy Carter, and Jimmie is
still trying to tell the world it never happened.

It's what Khrushchev and Castro did to John F. Kennedy.

It's what Kim Jong Il did to Bill Clinton and Madeleine Albright.
Every Democrat president seems to attract the biggest bullies, because
they can spot an easy mark a mile away.

Just imagine what Hans Christian Andersen could do with this fairy
tale.

Trouble is, this story will turn into a real nightmare -- as long as
the news media cover up for the most unqualified candidate in history.

But the media is waking up
