Is Obama On Drugs?

Obama has made so many gaffes of incredible stupidity recently that he is either stupid, ignorant or high as a kite, like his 57 state comment or Kennedy's meeting with Kruschev well before the Cuban missile crisis and constantly forgetting where he is.

So Obambi has been gaffe-ridden for some time. Another beauty occurred on May 8, 2007: In a campaign speech, he said 10,000 people had died in a tornado that hit Greensburg, Kansas a few days earlier. The death toll was 12.

In the past few weeks, however, the O-gaffes have been proliferating.

On April 28 in Wilmington, North Carolina, he thought the month was "March" and that it was "nine months to November."

On May 13 in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, he claimed the war in Iraq was responsible for a shortage of interpreters in Afghanistan: "We only have a certain number of them and if they are all in Iraq, then it is harder for us to use them in Afghanistan." Iraqis speak Arabic or Kurdish. Afghans don't, speaking Pushtu, Dari, and various tribal languages.

On May 16 in a press conference, he claimed, "When Kennedy met Khrushchev, we were on the brink of nuclear war." The two met in Vienna in June, 1961. The Cuba Missile Crisis, which Obambi claimed was resolved by the meeting, was in October 1962.

On May 18 in an interview to the Lexington (Ky) Herald-Leader, he said: "I'm not very well known" in Kentucky compared to Hillary because of her husband and "her coming from a nearby state of Arkansas." Illinois - the state he's a senator of - borders Kentucky; Arkansas does not (Tennessee's in between).

The champion O-gaffe was committed on May 9 in Beaverton, Oregon. You have to see it to believe he actually said that during his campaign, "I have now been to 57 states with one left to go," then says that one is "Alaska and Hawaii."

Pamela Gellar pointed to this interesting post by Dr. Jack Wheeler that examines whether these gaffes are from the exausting grind of the campaign trail or are they the result of a drug addled mind. Obama has an admitted history of drug use as he discussed in his book "Dreams From My Father" so it is possible the toils of the trail have gotten to him and he has turned to cocaine once again to relieve the pressure. I have noticed in some interviews and debates that he has a strange airy aloofness and abstract thinking pattern I have seen in people high on coke.

A neuroscientist with years of research into drug abuse and brain chemistry tells To The Point that the behavior exhibited by Obama is consistent with the use of either amphetamines or cocaine.

"His campaign's almost impossibly high level of activity, mental and physical, unrelenting day after day for month upon month is incredibly hard to maintain," he says. "The temptation to maintain it psycho-pharmacologically is great, especially for someone with a history of drug use. The drugs of choice would be amphetamines or cocaine, which can cause amazing mistakes, errors of incredible stupidity."

I don't find this very far-fetched at all and entirely plausible since I know many successful people like Obama who still use controlled substances and he strikes me as the type yuppy that would. I agree with Dr. Wheeler that Obama should consent to a hair follicle drug test especially in light of the very shady characters he has as friends most notably Ayers and Dohrn who are products of the 60's drug culture. It does make me wonder if instead of crumpets and tea with Ahmadinejad he is planning on a few lines and a bowls of hashish to discuss the finer points of totalitarian communism just like his days in college.
