The un-American President

March 9, 2009

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…

Porkulus, the bill that killed America

February 13, 2009

Olympia Snow, Susan Collins and Arlen Specter are traitors to America. They joined the other traitors, that being the Democratic members of the Senate, to push through legislation that they know destroyed this great country. They did it for political expediency, for personal gain, for the benefit of friends, relatives and political allies, and they did it to intentionally insult and harm the greater number of Americans who still believe in the Constitution and the American promise. They did it to repudiate free-market capitalism, social mobility and self actualization. They did it to solidify the power of the liberal elite, to reward unions and government bureaucrats, to provide incredible wealth to political insiders.

President Obama promised open government, open transactions and elimination of earmarks. This trillion dollar spending bill (there is no real economic stimulus) was crafted behind closed doors without the participation of the minority party. There was no public review or public comment, and a 90-minute floor debate before the vote was pushed through. Over 1,000 pages was voted on in both the House and Senate without even a single reading by any member of Congress. This isn’t democracy. This is Stalinism. Obama promised 48 hours of review. It never happened. This man lied to all of us. Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid lied to all of us. The Democrats threw out 100 years of procedure and safeguards to rush this monstrosity through both houses. The few Republicans who could have stalled this, Snow, Collins and Specter, decided to betray the core principles of the Republican Party and throw in their lot with the Marxists running this country. History will not be kind to them. 

The bill is corrupt, misguided and destructive on so many levels that an entire book can be written about it. And yet, those Americans who will end up paying for this are silent. The producers aren’t protesting. They’re not flooding the offices of Democratic politicians with petitions, angry letters and emails. There’s nothing. Emboldened, the Democrats will advance their agenda until they hit opposition. The parasites are rejoicing. They actually believe they won’t have to pay for energy costs or their mortgages, or even work for a living anymore. Some are even asking our President for a new kitchen. This is what America has descended into - a populace so stupid, so self-absorbed that they have no idea what they’ve given away for a welfare check or a paltry $13 a week in handouts.

The Porkulus bill will be examined by historians in great detail — much more detail than the leftist Democrats who shoved it through Congress back in 2009. That was the year democracy died.

The night they drove democracy down

January 20, 2009

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.
