Obama Is No Ronald Reagan

Lately it seems that Obama and his handlers are working on an image that paints ole’ Barry as Ronald Reagan incarnate. Obama was reading a book about Reagan (after getting his rear handed to him in the midterm elections) and there have been several references equating the two men.

Obama himself made a vague reference that compared him to Ronald Reagan. During a ceremony for Robert “Gagdad Bob” Gibbs in which Obama recounts a story about how he ended up wearing Gibbs’ tie, Obama described Gibbs’ action as taking one for the Gipper.

“…And, frankly, Robert didn’t want to give it up because he thought he looked really good in the tie. But eventually he was willing to take one for the gipper, and so he took off his tie, and I put it on. And that’s the tie that I wore at the national convention.” Real Clear Politics

The Gipper is the nickname that was used to refer to Reagan. The name comes from a part he played in a movie about the real life Gipper, George Gipp, a football player at Notre Dame.

Obama has been feigning toward the center since the last election and he must somehow believe that if he keeps saying he is like Reagan then people will vote for him.

To paraphrase a Democrat, I served under Ronald Reagan, I voted for Ronald Reagan, and you sir, are no Ronald Reagan.

This is more proof that Democrats know they can’t get elected by being themselves so they must act like something they are not. However, once they are in office the revert back to their roots and continue their destruction of the country.

**To be fair, Democrats are not the only ones who equate themselves to Reagan in order to garner support. Watch any Republican presidential primary and there are plenty of people trying to out-Reagan each other…

Cave Canem!
