“Obama is the pilot of the plane called America. We, the People, are the passengers. We can’t see the captain, but his periodic announcements tell us that he’s up there in the cockpit. Suddenly, we become aware of a disturbance on the plane. We look anxiously at the speakers above our heads, waiting for Captain Obama to tell us what’s wrong and how he’s going to fix it. Instead, we get either silence or a bizarre rant from the cockpit about the bright sunlight outside the plane.
Now imagine you’re on the plane: Given that your captain has just shown himself to be either absent or insane in the face of a clear and present danger, are you going to continue to sit peacefully in your seat hoping for the best, or are you going to unbuckle your seat belt, search for anything that can possibly be used as a weapon, and go to face the problem yourself?
Captain Obama is failing in his job. If the American people step up to do what he won’t, and if he doesn’t like how the American people handle the job, he has only himself to blame.”
