"Romney Hood": Even a Blind Squirrel...

finds a nut every now and then.  After years of one asinine blunder and gaff after another from the President who should never stray from the teleprompter that got him elected, at long last Obama hits one out of the park.  Don't get me wrong... it was never his intent, but in this one case, his staggering ignorance has led him to a dead on accurate analogy.  When he labeled Mitt "Romney Hood", he nailed it right on the head.  Granted, his logic was flawed and pathetically inaccurate as usual, but ironically his stupidity led him to the perfect conclusion. 

Who was Robin Hood?  The common misconception is that Robin Hood robbed from the rich and gave that money to the poor.  Not true.  Robin Hood was a victim of a tyrannical government who, effectively through "eminent domain" on steroids, stole his family's property.  He was a wealthy patriot who was punished for his father's refusal to bow to the monarchy.  In retaliation, Robin Hood targeted tax collectors representing the monarchy who were stealing money from the private citizens who earned it through blood sweat and tears.  He then returned this wealth to its rightful owners... the citizens who earned it.  This isn't the redistribution of wealth model that Obama subscribes to. 

Prince John was certainly a "redistributionist" at heart.  He stole from those who worked and produced and transferred that wealth to the lazy parasites who held the power in their political structure.  Obama and the liberals steal from the hard working people who actually earn their wealth and redistributes it to his base of "takers" who have grown so large in numbers, that they in fact hold the lions share of political power today. 

In Obama's own example, he is in fact Prince John, stealing from those who earned their money through the power of the tax collector.  So if Obama wants to go with the Robin Hood analogy, great.  Yes, Romney and his band of Merry Conservatives will be fighting an out of control government that has more in common with a monarchy or dictatorship than it does with a constitutional republic.  He'll be fighting to ensure that the people (all of them) get to keep more of what they earned.   Sounds like the simplest of all possible illustrations of what separates the two ideological camps. 

Hell, it was made into a Disney cartoon, so it can easily be understood by even the ignorant masses who are so easily swayed with asinine and even disgusting campaign ads (see the DNC homepage for examples).

So to those who believe that Obama is truly one of the most ignorant empty suits ever elected to public office, I can't say that you're wrong.  But that doesn't mean you can't appreciate genius when it's on display, even if it was a complete accident. 

Sleep well Sheople... Barack has the Flock!
