That teleprompter not only tells him what to say, it has little highlights that instruct him when to pause, when to look out wistfully over the audience, and when to smile. The performances are worthy of an Oscar. The media routinely accused Ronald Reagan of being merely an actor, playing to the tune of darker forces. Decades later, Reagan’s personal handwritten notes served as indisputable proof that the man knew what he was talking about. The same cannot be said for this new President. His ghostwritten books, his ghostwritten speeches are delivered with stunning virtuosity. He probably believes what he says — when it’s convenient for him to do so. And, he is smart enough to know that he’s lying most of the time, even though he’s not as smart as George W. Bush. So then, who is Barack’s brain? Who directs the writing of those magnificent speeches and carefully crafted, evasive statements that hide the true agenda? Axelrod is a scribe — a very good scribe, but nonetheless a scribe. He’s getting the ‘vision’ from someone and it’s not Obama. When Obama says he doesn’t have an opinion, or wasn’t aware of something, it’s because he hasn’t been told what to say yet. There’s always a 6-8 hour time lag between the event and Obama’s carefully crafted response to the event, regardless of the severity or significance of that event. Yes, of course, Obama has a say in what’s being written for him, but there appears to be an approval process. Notice how he stammers and babbles when there is no teleprompter, or when someone asks him a question for which he’s not prepared.

Okay, then. Who is Barack’s brain? This blog is happy to hear from anyone with a plausible suspect. As mentioned on this website’s home page, George Soros is under suspicion. Ted Kennedy or any member of the Kennedy clan just isn’t up to the task and neither is anyone in Hollywood. The brain could be an individual, a small group of individuals or an organization. The time delay before Obama responds to anything would indicate that more than one person is involved, although Obama himself is probably prone to dithering and indecisiveness. Think about someone beyond the borders of this country. Someone with an outlook very different from ours. After all, Obama is not of America. He’s not from America, either. His mother despised America, especially middle America. His father and stepfather were not Americans,  they were not sympathetic to America and did not aspire to become Americans. And, ironically enough, Americans were stupid enough to elect this man as President. Not by a huge margin — only 52.7%. But, it’s enough to destroy us all, even the fools that voted for him. The hunt continues. Let’s hope there’s really a functioning brain behind all this…

Who is Barack Obama’s Svengali? Is it possible that Barack Obama has the faculties, the intelligence, the megalomaniacal drive necessary to destroy this country on his own? It’s obvious the mainstream media is providing cover and Congress is doing their part to spend as foolishly as possible, but what our President is doing to this great country is so evil and malevolent, it borders on insanity . Does Barack Obama hate this country so deeply and with so much passion that he’s dedicated his life to its destruction? The motives just don’t seem to be there. Here’s a guy who never had to really work very hard, who received an incredible education free of charge, who’s lived comfortably, even luxuriously, through the generosity of our government, the special preferences granted him, various social programs and the largess of wealthy liberals. Maybe Barack Obama is just a Trilby, someone that’s easily instructed and handled, yet possessed of charismatic presentation. That may very well be. Obama is a very ambitious man, one who firmly believes in his own magnificence and sense of destiny. His head is filled with an ideology that has been proven worthless time and time again. Yet, he moves forward with a deliberate tempo and increasingly more dangerous and damaging policies. He doesn’t appear to understand what the consequences might be. Therefore, one can only assume he doesn’t know or is too self-absorbed to care. Who could be the Svengali to Obama’s Trilby?

Bill Ayers probably had a hand in writing some of Barack Obama’s books, which mysteriously became bestsellers during a time when books of that type didn’t sell particularly well. But Bill Ayers, the unrepentant domestic terrorist and college professor (somehow that’s a combination that works on campus), doesn’t seem to have the imagination and intellect to dream up this wholesale destruction of America. But then, you never know. His stupid bombing attacks on the Pentagon and NYC police headquarters were committed when he was quite young. Over 40 years, a man has time to dream up new ways to destroy his country. No, Bill Ayers just doesn’t have it. He’s just an over the hill radical who can only survive by talking at impressionable college students who haven’t been out in real world and don’t know any better.

There’s always George Soros, international man of mystery and money manipulation. Here’s someone with real hatred towards America, someone who is forced to hide inside our borders because he’s destroyed the economies of so many countries there’s probably a contract out for his murder. Soros is the fellow who funds dozens of left wing hatemongers and smear websites like moveon.org, the Daily Kos, and literally hundreds of bloggers, activists and street people. Soros and his pals made $2 billion dollars back in ‘92 shorting the Bank of England, creating roughly $30 billion in economic damage that was then foisted onto the backs of British taxpayers. He did the same in Russia, then moved on to Southeast Asia where he shorted the currencies of Myanmar, Indonesia and Singapore, and where he’s still wanted on currency manipulation charges. Soros has the same MO wherever he goes - donate to ‘progressive’ causes, establish ‘democratic’ front organizations, then push the governments into overspending. He then swoops in, shorts the currency and creates an economic collapse. Soros and buddies walk away with billions. Who’s to say that he isn’t doing the same thing here, with Barack Obama gladly devaluing the currency with huge stimulus bills, enormous deficits and uncontrolled spending? Soros could be waiting in the wings, ready to pounce.

If he does, Soros and his pals will walk way with trillions in personal wealth. That kind of money buys real, world-dominating power. We, the American taxpayers, will be digging out for the next 50 years. That means unimaginable economic destruction - middle class Americans turned into paupers, standing in line for government assistance, unable to care for themselves. Which is precisely where Barack Obama wants us: dependent on government for everything, begging him for a crust of bread. There is a good reason Obama wants to make sure Americans can’t offshore their money or hide it overseas, why he’s attempting to close loopholes in Monaco, the Cayman Islands, Bermuda and the Channel Islands. Average Americans can’t have any security or savings. It would mean they have resources he can’t control. They could be in a position to defy him.

Okay, if it isn’t Soros, who could it be? America has many enemies, both inside and outside our borders. Barack Obama is not an American by the definition that most of us would think a President should be. He was born in Kenya (or Hawaii, under questionable circumstances), grew up in Indonesia and returned to the US as a teenager. His formative years were spent in Islamic schools in a foreign country. He didnt’ serve in the military. He didn’t get a regular job and struggle to pay rent and taxes. His orientation is vastly different not just from the average American, but even that of African Americans. Barack Obama probably doesn’t see himself as an American, but rather a citizen of the world. And that means his Svengali is likely outside the country. Obama is unlike Bill Clinton who, like a cheap hooker, took money from the Chinese for his reelection bid and opened up American markets to Chinese goods imported by WalMart (headquartered in Arkansas, surprise!). No, Obama isn’t conducting a transaction for a quick buck like Clinton had.  The stakes are much bigger and the game is being played for all the marbles. If Obama and whoever runs his teleprompter succeed, America will be destroyed. The list of potential Svengali’s is quite small, actually. Stay tuned for regular installments on the hunt for Barack’s brain.

Barack Obama has dedicated himself to destroying this country. He’s attacking the very ideals and institutions that have made this country the greatest in the history of mankind. He’s taken upon himself the grim task of gutting the Constitution, the system of checks and balances, and a free-market economy that’s the envy of the world. Why would he do this? Because he’s not familiar with the America most Americans live in. His father was Kenyan - an alcoholic womanizer who visited this country once or twice. His American mother was an ultra-liberal that flitted about the globe, dragging her young son with her as she attempted to ‘find’ herself. He spent his formative years in Indonesia attending a Muslim school. Barack Obama had no grounding in what being an American truly is, what it means, and what’s important to Americans.

Barack Obama is an exemplary orator. Too bad that what he’s spewing is pure Marxist dogma. And yet, the stupid and the gullible sop it up, quivering in joy when they hear him speak, misunderstanding his true intentions and the ‘plans’ he has for America. Even black Americans who voted for Obama had better pay attention now. If they thought their lot in life was somehow diminished during the Bush administration, just wait until Obama is done with them. The Messiah will alter their America, too. And they won’t recognize it when he’s finished.

Well-educated, well-spoken and well-dressed, Obama the demagogue told everyone what they wanted to hear. But, he was very plain and straightforward about his vision for a Marxist utopia - except nobody really listened. Now, he’s making good on his promise to ‘re-make’ America, uproot its traditions and reason for being. No, he’s not going to create some sort of Euro-style socialist state. He’s going for the throat - a full-on Marxist takeover, complete with his promised ‘internal security force’ the size of our military. Why would the Anointed One, the Great Visionary, need an internal security force composed mostly of our poorly educated and gullible students, except to create another Hitler Youth or Red Guard to impose the will of Obama and the Democratic Party on us all? It’s a frightening prospect.

The media & entertainment clowns continue to cheer him on. The conservatives continue to question his motives and methods, but they’re largely outshouted. And so, Obama goes about his business - stampeding the stupid into giving him the imprimatur to take away all of our economic freedoms. And without economic freedom, the ability to keep what you earn guaranteed by our Constitution, the freedom to vote or voice your opinion is nearly useless. No one will hear you complaining when you’re standing in a breadline.

Obama is using the banking crisis to ram through a Marxist agenda - government control of energy, healthcare and capital formation. He’s lying about his true intent, cloaking this outrageous power grab as a means to moderate the economic downturn. Creating a ‘green’ economy with unproven technology and government subsidies is not a free-standing, self-sufficient economy. Bankrupting coal producers, coal-fired energy generation, oil companies and auto companies is not going to create a rebound. Confiscating healthcare and turning it into a political weapon will not cause prosperity to materialize. And certainly, adding a huge new tax burden on economic activity will not create jobs.

But then, Obama doesn’t really care if the economy recovers at all. The worse it gets, the more power he’ll accumulate and the further our great country will slide into the clutches of a failed ideology. To the Democrats that won’t matter in the least. They’ll always have the ‘rich’ and the Republicans to blame for anything and everything that goes wrong. And when it gets really tough, fellow Democrats can meet up with their President at the White House for a cocktail on Wednesday nights and dine on $100 per pound steak. Hey, it’s free, isn’t it? Go on, a second helping couldn’t hurt…

Last summer, George W. Bush and Hank Paulson rammed nearly a trillion dollars into the financial system, hoping to stabilize wobbly banks and brokers. Ben Bernancke printed another trillion dollars and injected them into a wobbly economy, hoping to stimulate lending and commerce. Six months later, Barack Obama presides over a so-called stimulus package, committing the government to another trillion dollars in questionable spending, only to follow it up a few days later with a seven hundred billion dollar mortgage package - the third of its kind in less than a year. On the floor of the House is another $700 billion ‘omnibus’ spending bill for the balance of 2009. And now, Obama proudly reveals a stupendous, back-breaking $8 trillion dollar federal budget for 2010 so laden with pork and special-interest handouts that it staggers the imagination.

And, true to form, neither Obama nor the Democrat-controlled Congress is inclined to illuminate the taxpayer on what exactly is in that budget. By the way, there are also ‘off the book’ spending that’s not even included in that budget, such as a planned cash infusion for GM and Chrysler, the recently turned up war in Afghanistan, and a vastly expanded internal security force inside our borders.

That’s $16 trillion dollars in less than a year and one-half, or our entire GDP for one year, consumed by profitless, pointless government spending. Add that sum to our incredible national debt of $44 trillion, and it spells impending cataclysm. This isn’t just reckless, it’s as if Obama and Democrats want to purposely run the country into the ground for some other purpose, perhaps to take total control. One shudders at the thought. But, nothing else seems to make sense. Why would a US president and a duly elected Congress attempt to evade all of the safeguards put in place by our founding fathers, except to create a socialist oligarchy? Democrats, in their short-sighted and stupid bid to make themselves voter-proof, have destroyed the checks and balance system of the Constitution. And, in so doing, they have destroyed the American republic, humankind’s oldest and most successful functioning free-market representative democracy. And, they’re celebrating its destruction with beef, champagne and applause.

And the people were singing. They clapped and hollered, danced in the streets and stood in line at the porta-potties filling the Mall. They were happy and hopeful, trusting and naive. And, they had no idea why they were there except what the media told them. This was a historic occasion, indeed. But then, what precisely is historic about Obama’s ascendancy? Was this blend of Kenya and Kansas, this product of affirmative action and racial politics, the best black president we could have elected? Were other black candidates with more experience, credentials and qualifications pushed aside simply because they were more conservative, or too overtly radical?  Was it because Obama happened to be a person of color and therefore, regardless of his actual qualifications, experience and political ideology, was propelled into office? Did Obama get elected because of his skin color or in spite of it? What role did the news and entertainment cabal play in amplifying and distorting race issues in America, in effect paving the road for the Obama candidacy? 

55% of voting Americans have no idea who they elected as president. That critical 5% margin will no doubt be characterized as the tipping point in our nation’s history, when we descended into the grim and ghastly grasp of socialism. The Orwellian aspects of an Obama presidency are just too obvious to ignore. Our new president likes to strike poses reminiscent of FDR and JFK, and the media obliges with lavish coverage. But it’s the carefully crafted language that Obama uses to describe his dreary utopia that should make the average Joe a little nervous. When President Obama announces that ’a private Wall Street can no longer threaten Main Street’, just what the heck does he mean? There are at least two potential meanings - either Wall Street will be nationalized, or Wall Street will be so heavily regulated that it won’t be able sell a single security without direct government control. Neither is very good for America. This phrase is but one in hundreds of similarly cryptic pronouncements that Obama made prior to and after the election. He means to change things. Let’s all hope that he doesn’t make things worse, like FDR did.

Unfortunately, Obama appears to be headed down the same road to ruin that FDR, LBJ and Jimmy Carter previously trod. It’s a foregone conclusion that a huge increase in government and government spending will breeze through Congress. This ’stimulus’ package contains every single earmark and pet project ever dreamed up by any left wing loon in the Democratic Party. Every single stupid idea and wasteful government project ever devised is now enshrined in this pork barrel bonanza masquerading as help for a stricken economy. Much like FDR deepened and prolonged the Depression with ridiculous and harmful government intervention, Obama, along with his co-conspirators Pelosi and Reid, intend to repeat history. We will be thrust into a deep abyss, cheered on by the mindless mobs who think that a few government handouts will solve all their problems.

The mainstream media will go along with the hype and cover up the true nature of the proceedings. Our Constitution will be quickly disassociated from government and legislation. The normal checks and balances that prevent our government from running away with both the treasury and the law will be eradicated. Under the pretense of an economic recession, we will be stripped of our basic rights and the opportunity to prosper through our own efforts. The parasites will be in firm control of the government and the engines of wealth creation. The rest of us will work for the government, either directly or indirectly. The wealthy will escape this dreary existence, just as they have in Europe and elsewhere. The barriers to new wealth creation will be fortified, and the barriers between classes made impenetrable. It won’t matter how hard you work, or how well-intentioned your efforts may be.

If you’re born working-class, you’ll die working-class. That is unless you sell your soul to the Party - the only way out. That’s how it worked in the Soviet Union and Communist China. Welcome, comrade, to the era of hope and change.

The events in Washington DC are a chilling indicator of just how badly average Americans misunderstand their current predicament. Amidst the applause, the outpouring of joy and nonsensical optimism lies an astounding depth of ignorance as to the motives and intent of the Anointed One and his retinue. The self-reinforcing cycle of bad education and badly educated Americans allows socialists to usurp our economic freedoms. It blinds most Americans to the true motives of a Democratic Party that has abandoned democracy for the unbridled power of a socialist regime. Laura Ingraham’s radio show featured clips of typical Obama fans expressing (or attempting to) their rationale for supporting this newly-minted president. Most of them couldn’t complete a sentence, much less coherently explain why they’re so infatuated with Mr. Obama. Their random utterances were nothing more than mindless parroting of Obama sound bites that had been repeated over and over by the mainstream media in the months running up to this coronation ceremony. They clearly don’t understand what they’ve voted for, who represents them and what will happen once Democrats make themselves voter-proof at every level of government.

Barack Obama knows exactly what he’s doing, as do all of his advisors and departmental nominees. The only person along for the ride is the Gaffemeister himself, the honorable Joe Biden, ably assisted by his wife, whose only priority in life appears to be the endless refinancing of his real estate holdings. And, of course, keeping his son and relatives out of the media spotlight.

As the celebs and rock stars pour into the capital to spend thousands of dollars on overpriced event tickets, limos and hotel suites, the proletariat fill the streets, cheering on the passing of free-market economics and equal opportunity. The TV anchors and print propagandists are beside themselves in apoplectic, eye-twitching ecstacy. But no one in the mainstream media asked how this will all shake out - not in the months since the election and certainly not in the last few days. 

How will the overtly leftist campaign promises of Barack Obama be transformed into government policy and legislation? How will Obama, ably assisted by Nancy Pelosi and Hary Reid, shred the Constitution and destroy everything that makes America different, and therefore, better? It will be obvious. It will be plain and straightforward, and the Republicans will be aghast at how easily a republic can be dismantled and replaced with a totalitarian system. With unbelieving eyes, they will see legislation passed in Congress and signed into law at the White House, confirmed by the Supreme Court and put into action by the bureaucracy. Every last bridge back to a free society and a free market will be set ablaze. And, it will be saluted with great fanfare by the media cabal, academics and the liberal elite. It will be cause for a celebration. Freedom will be snuffed out with guitar riffs and wild applause.
