The Obama I Dislike So Much

This past week news channels have been reporting that several Democrat “spinstirs”, a modern word referring to those who ‘stir spin’, are complaining that many conservatives, especially those causing commotion through  the Tea Party movement are demonizing Obama….portraying him as an extremist…as a socialist, as a threat to America.  That he is true to these descriptions seems to be missed by the leftwing eye and mind.  He has earned his reputation! Muslim Louis Farrakhan, nee Walcott,  insisted publically recently that criticism of Obama is setting him  up for assassination.    He must be a fan of anarchy and chaos. 

Throughout almost the entirety of human history, until the appearance of democratic government, a ruler ruled until he was murdered, or died in battle.  The few who survived this fate ruled for a lifetime whether anyone approved or not.  They ruled by power until power was lost.

Democracy is the frosting atop a civilized society.  A healthy democracy relies upon truth and clarity of opinion.

I dislike Barack Hussein Obama deeply.   I disliked Hillary for all of the garbage Hillary carried with her…the deceit,  the constant lying …….the pretense of being victim  of shootings, her being a woman who could  put on  tears when needed…..her Black Panther past and years at Yale……and  a leftist…..but at least she was an American leftist, an American story teller, and her tears were at least American tears crocodile or not, from an American mind deeply attached to her country.  She exaggerated her truths, claims, cliches, stories and so on, and they all embarrassed me as an adult American.  I find her a very, very, unattractive woman and can understand at least superficially, William’s wanderings.    But she is an American, one we all knew well.

We did not know Barack Hussein Obama.  He had no background to display good things about himself.  He belonged to a church led by a vile anti-white racist, his primary father figure according to Obama’s own writing. 

Obama had a cloistered college life, and was raised in Hawaii, the most foreign of American states.  He had a pampered home life, and has never written or said anything beyond the political cliche about his so-called native country.  I have never heard a word from his lips which in anecdote or reference indicates any love for democracy or his country.  His wife announced her absence of pride in the country.   He avoids good words about this land and has gone around the world diminishing America’s personna. 

His major early political and social advisor was Marxist, Saul Alinsky…..Mr. Obama was the major legal advisor for ACORN in Chicago for several years, but has been dishonest about his role with the organization. 

I followed the Hillary-Barack campaign closely throughout the 2008 season.  Hillary would make me cringe because she was Hillary…so dislikeable…and such a caricature of the freemouth intellectually amoral politician. 

I wanted to prefer Barack….Yes, in part because he was black.  It seemed inevitable the next president would be a Democrat, no matter how bad the person might be.  Think!….it could have been John Edwards.   Think about that, America!  But after about the tenth round of listening to Barack’s imaginations about our country, I strongly moved to Hillary, the bad and all. 

I found Obama rote, cold, oh so cold….no sense of humor……  No one ever came forth to declare a lifetime knowledge of and friendship for  and appreciation of Mr. Obama….He was friendless.  I listened more carefully to him.   He put good words together….so tightly together folks could not realize he was almost always demogogic and/or disingenuous.  Remember that disingenuous is a kinder utterance for being a teller of lies.   He doesn’t let truth get in his way when he speechifies.

Speechifying is his trade.

At one moment in 2008 in the same paragraph, almost in the same sentence Barack confessed he was against gay marriage, but then qualified his statement that we should all understand that they should have all the advantages of being married. 

I do not know of any American president who so willfully contradicts what he says  nearly every time he makes “serious” statements.  From Roosevelt to Obama, he is the first American executive who educates his audiences not with clarity but with collections of  cliches and the endless fatuous Obama words.  Listen carefully to his pitches for Obamacare….”more coverage for more people at less cost”……”….We’re going to take $500,000,000,000 out of corrupt Medicare to cover costs in Obamacare government run health insurance…..pretending Medicare is going to carry on as usual with loss of money but  no  loss in service.  If there is corruption and waste in Medicare, why isn’t action taken against Medicare corruption?   He says his  projections of costs are consistent with those of the Congressional Budget Office……another lie!   What else can one say?

Peggy Noonan in today’s  Wall Street Journal describes Obama’s untruth-telling as the president’s “growing credibility gap.  In his speech Wednesday, demanding an ‘up or down’ vote, the president seemed convinced and committed-but nothing he said sounded true.  His bill will ‘bring down the cost of health care for millions’.   it is ‘fully paid for’, it will lower the long term deficit by a trillion dollars.         Does anybody believe this?  Does anyone who knows the ways of government, the compulsions of Congress, and how history has played out in the past, believe this?”   And she continues woefully, “he seems to devote more words to obscuring than clarifying.”

Of course people will believe these obscurings!

And, that precisely, dear Prager friends, is what Obama is so indredibly good at….OBSCURING THE TRUTH.  

In 2008 he campaigned to reform….redo America….to change America.  He obscured the fact he was a Marxist and refused to expose his Marxism to open debate during any of his campaigns.  He couldn’t, of course.   Dennis Prager knew exactly what Obama meant by “reforming” America during the  campaigning in 2008.  Those of us who are more familiary with Marxist tactics did also.  He was to destroy private enterprise, the Marxist primary focus of hate.

 Obama reminds me of Lyndon Baines Johnson, not in the crudeness of speech, but in the coldness of his being, and contempt for the people with both  determined to leave a Leftwing legacy.  But here is where Lyndon is better than Obama.  Lyndon Johnson with ego all over the place, was an American from the South and depression era experienced.   Like Obama he was hugely devious.  He actually enjoyed  bullying  people when he was Senate Majority Leader and when he became president.  Obama is much better appearing, however, and without a rural southern accent…..after all, he wasn’t from poverty, but from Princeton and Columbia. 

Thus far, what is the Obama record?  In what way has he “polished up” his America?  Bowing hither and thither in front of some and not others on the world stage is puzzling and tells much about the man’s nature.  I suspect his advisors didn’t program him to curtsy.  Don’t you think curtsying  was the president’s decision?

Not a friend, Obama says, but an “acquaintance”, Marxist and American terrorist, Bill Ayers, was someone he just bumped into from time to time at the super market in the neighborhood, forgetting to mention the many meetings where they participated  together plotting. 

Mr. Obama has seized General Motors and sections of the American financial industry.  He is presently advancing lie after lie about the nature of his health industry coup d’ etat, the government’s attempt to capture  17% of the entire American economy.

What more evidence does the American citizen interested in TRUTH need to understand that Barack Hussein Obama is a Socialist. 

His plan for following the government expansion of $2,000,000,000,000 more debt from his  American ‘health care’ legislation, was the Obama Cap and Trade package, the transfer of more BILLIONS  of dollars from the American taxpayer  overseas to Africa and elsewhere to pay back to the world some dollars gained from American “greed”.  

“Never let a crisis go to waste!”  Obama advisor, Emanuel pronounces.  So Obama creates series after series of new crises…..Such as,  Who is going to pay for Obama’s Marxism?

I find the man America’s first political demagogue as president due to his determination  to crush the country by causing financial collapse to secure Marxist government dictate.  He has been programmed to be a counterAmerican….one who imagines his country as equal to any in the world.  He has been taught, as are millions of American students being taught, that the United States of America is the greatest obstacle to world peace today.   Private enterprise is its evil engine.    (When I was isolated at university, I was taught to believe that dogma as well.   I well recognize  Obama -lingo.  Sell Marxism with the sweet candy of equality.)

The man appears  ruthless.  So did Lyndon Johnson.  This present  president has many more leftists in Congress and much more money available to force dogmatism  on the country than LBJ….

One cannot deny Obamapassion.  He has indeed been active this first year plus of presidentness. What good has he accomplished for his country?

Please someone, list for me his accomplishments to create a better American nation!  Tell me where I misjudge our 44th ‘president’.
