The “You might be an a-hole” test
By: DrJohn

We’re going to have a little test that will determine if you are an a-hole. But first, let’s have a look at the real Barack Obama. Let us review what kind of person he is. Obama is supposed to be the President of all of the United States and not just the President of his party. He is supposed to watch out for the general welfare of all of us. The Presidential Oath reads:

“I, name, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and I will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

Nowhere in the oath does it allow for punishing Americans for doing nothing wrong.

Barack Obama has issued orders to close National Parks and make life miserable for Americans.

“We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can. It’s disgusting.”

Obama has stranded tourists in Yellowstone.

Obama has evicted elderly people from their homes.

Ordering National Parks closed is not enough for Obama. He had them barricaded and wired shut. Those structures have come to be known as “Barrycades.”

1. barrycade

1. A barrier (usually temporary) that exists for no reason. 2. A barrier erected for political reasons.

“Dude, Obama barrycaded the park.”

“Hey, let’s put up some barrycades to keep those World War II veterans away from the open-air World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., in order to try and score some cheap political points.”

Obama is blocking the road that allows for viewing of Mount Rushmore.

Obama is ordering hundreds of private-owned and privately funded parks closed and has ordered visitors kept out of privately run businesses.

Obama is even trying to shut down the ocean:

Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was “closed” due to the shutdown. Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square-miles of open ocean. Fishing is also prohibited at Biscayne National Park during the shutdown.

The Park Service will also have rangers on duty to police the ban… of access to an ocean. The government will probably use more personnel and spend more resources to attempt to close the ocean, than it would in its normal course of business.

This is governing by temper-tantrum. It is on par with the government’s ham-fisted attempts to close the DC WWII Memorial, an open-air public monument that is normally accessible 24 hours a day. By accessible I mean, you walk up to it. When you have finished reflecting, you then walk away from it.

At least that Memorial is an actual structure, with some kind of perimeter that can be fenced off. Florida Bay is the ocean. How, pray tell, do you “close” 1,100 square miles of ocean? Why would one even need to do so?
