And these are just a few recent examples.  From Patterico…

We saw recently that Obama is mad about how the feds are handling Ebola:

“It’s not tight,” a visibly angry Mr. Obama said of the response, according to people briefed on the meeting. He told aides they needed to get ahead of events and demanded a more hands-on approach, particularly from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “He was not satisfied with the response,” a senior official said.

I thought I would review some other stuff he’s been mad about.

He was mad about the IRS Scandal:

“Americans have a right to be angry about it, and I’m angry about it,” Obama said.

“It should not matter what political stripe you’re from. The fact of the matter is, the IRS has to operate with absolute integrity,” the president said.

He was mad about the ObamaCare rollout:

Not that long ago, when given the opportunity to keep hundreds of millions of dollars annually from leaving New Hampshire, Jeanne Shaheen, Barack Obama’s Senate envoy to New Hampshire, voted to back the plundering pirates from Washington over state and local control…of transportation dollars.

Which party is it that demands a steady increase in taxpayer-tithing to the “Crying Temple for Crumbling Roads and Bridges”?  That would be Democrats.  But given the opportunity to pump hundreds of millions back into the hands of state and local government (year after year) to address transportation infrastructure based on local priorities, Jeanne Shaheen sent a message; she does not trust you with your her money.

California’ ‘experts’ have been wasting money on bullet-trains and solar farms, when they should have been building desalinization plants.  But how could they know?  The science and computer models the liberals in politics, the education establishment, and media insist are gospel contradict themselves if they don’t just get it wrong…

So some climate models say that daily precipitation intensity (in California) will increase and others say it will decrease. In other words, the climate science community is clueless about what the future might bring for west coast precipitation.

Some might say that climatologists for the State of California and other west coast states have been hampered by climate science. It’s tough to make recommendations to state and local governments for long-term planning when the climate science community provides them with nothing to work with.

Is California prepared for a drought that lasts multiple decades or even centuries?

The history suggests that this is very possible, and just as likely, and the obvious answer to the question is, Hell no!

The base reference was here: Oh Goody – Obama wants to import Ebola diseased illegal immigrants (and have us pay for them?) that I put up last night.  This morning I ran across this post from Erick Erickson at RedState that explains it – and a lot of other actions as well:

Remember My Obama Theorem to Understand the President’s Handling of Ebola

So many of you seem confused and confounded by what President Obama is doing. You really just need to remember my theorem about Barack Obama to understand him.

1. The world will be more safe if the United States is less safe.
2. The world will be more stable if the United States is less stable.
3. Act against one and two only when polling demands it and only then in a way that does not actually undermine one and two.

President Obama entire Presidency can be explained by this theorem.

Now you can

There is no “tolerance” in the militant gay movement – there can only be acceptance (even if forced). President Obama’s Obamacare Mandate is forcing Christian companies to provide abortifaciants in their healthcare policies against their religious beliefs and conscious – this is Tyranny in which Government decides what thought is allowed – and what is not.  Christian small business owners are forced to participate in “religious” ceremonies that they consider sinful – with fines and threats of literal “re-education”.  This is the Land of the Free under the force of Diversity?

Four Tweets to do a COMPLETE Flaying and dismembership of “Obama-ism.  This will be a classic for quite some time to come:

Stage 2 of Obama Crisis Management: I'm so mad.

Instead, right now – before the election – everyone who wants to help control the budget and our current spending problem should tell us their target for spending. Last fiscal year was $5 billion. Do you intend to increase that amount? Will the current tax rates support any increase or do you have plans for additional revenue? During an election, we ought to know what’s planned.

“In other words, the safety of the American people takes second place to the goal of helping people overseas.”

“…may be overlooking the possibility that he has different priorities than the protection of the American people and America’s interests as a nation“

To recap: Erick Erickson’s Obama theorem:

1. The world will be more safe if the United States is less safe.
2. The world will be more stable if the United States is less stable.
3. Act against one and two only when polling demands it and only then in a way that does not actually undermine one and two.

Professor Thomas Sowell (Ph.D Economics), a well respected economist and political commentator (e.g., not someone given to wild antics)  goes into a bit more depth using this worldwide scare of Ebola that we now find ourselves (reformatted, emphasis mine):

The Ebola outbreak in West Africa is both a danger in itself and a wake-up call for Americans — about President Obama, about the institutions of this country and, most important, about ourselves.There was a time when an outbreak of a deadly disease overseas would bring virtually unanimous agreement that our top priority should be to keep it overseas. Yet Barack Obama has refused to bar entry to the United States by people from countries where the Ebola epidemic rages, as Britain has done.
