It's not about me means it's all about me

An open letter to President Obama,

Is your cognitive “house of cards” so shaken by the realities of energy creation and consumption that the only way to protect your fragile sense of self is to call those who live in the real world “flat earth society” members? Your rhetoric is a classic example of the “it’s not about me” line where everyone knows it’s actually all about them.

In other words, you are the one who believes in fairy tales and “flat earths,” that, like a chess board made from sustainable wood, can be controlled by the well intentioned pixie dust of green technology and your self-aggrandizing narcissism.

You spend your time smugly creating straw men and decrying capitalism as piggish. These projections are simply a defense mechanism to defend your blind perceptions. In reality, your mind is a straw house that desperately is trying to protect its frailties and global warming fantasies (or is it climate change?) from the winds of a big bad wolf known as self-actualization, common sense, and capitalism.

Heaven forbid your self-anointed ivory tower be blown away by the dissonant cognition found in the enlightened reason of a systemic and dynamic universe beyond the pale of mere mortals. Unlike yourself of course, who reached demigod status when you proclaimed upon your exultation, “the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.”

I am saddened by the outward expressions of inner turmoil you exhibit without even a hint of humility or ability for self awareness. Your maladaptive coping strategies directed towards reasoned yet conflicting points of view is beneath a man that is supposed to be the leader of the free world.

How about doing the American people a favor, grow up, find yourself, and lead; otherwise step aside so America can prosper in freedom.

Respectfully

Dean Kalahar
