Presidential Affirmative Action

Given his lack of discernible experience accomplishing anything, how Obama got to be elected President of the United States is a real puzzler. But, why he got elected isn’t. After decades of redistribution of wealth through Affirmative Action, it only makes sense that “it was time.”

After his much touted and remarkably pedestrian speech at the 2004 Democratic Convention, a plan was hatched.

With funding and endorsements from an anti-American European billionaire, and two television and film personalities / moguls, a perfect storm was created wherein Obama could be plucked from obscurity and declared a political rising star.

President George W. Bush is the devil. Hugo Chavez said so; as have innumerable liberals who have spent eight years spewing the most disgusting and divisive nonsense We have ever seen (at least until Governor Sarah Palin was later hurled onto the political scene, THEN things got really ugly). So, the natural thing to do when “oppressed” by a devil’s “regime” is to pray for a saviour.

Thus, the stage was set and the actors primed. The time for Change was nigh.

Once Oprah gave her endorsement for Obama on national television, his campaign for the position as The One was launched. Quickly, tragically-hip, guilt-ridden Hollywood liberals supplicated themselves to His message of change. They spoke out to the youts of our fine nation, admonishing them to “Not Vote.” Of course, they were being ironic, but as with all things Hollywood, the message had to be nuanced and cool-sounding.

Communist subversives who long ago launched “Peace” movements, and who for decades have worked to infiltrate our educational systems and our Congress, have secretly labored toward transforming America into a communist state. With Obama, and his Alynsky-based views and associates, the communists saw just the tool they needed to achieve this agenda.

A cloyingly adoring mass media began to fawn over Obama as if he really was a savior come to rescue us from the Evil Bush. In fact, they got so enamored of the man of mystery that they alluded to him actually being The Savior Returned. Pictures of Obama in Christ-like poses appeared on magazine covers, in works of Chicago art, and in some black churches. It may not have occurred to these members of the Obama Cult that comparing him to Christ was not only over the top, but deeply offensive, as well.

Still, it was time. The blacks were due, and every single liberal in the country made it their crusade to get Barack Hussein Obama elected. They plugged their ears to the troublesome questions about Wright, Ayers, Rezco, and other dubious friends and associates. And to the audio of Barack explaining how the Civil Rights actually failed and how the Constitution is inherently flawed. They closed their eyes to video of Obama speaking about redistribution of wealth. And, the video where Obama tells how he will bankrupt the coal industry. The liberals’ mouths, however, those were wide open. And what a shrill, self-deceiving chorus that has been ever since.

There is absolutely no reason Obama should have been considered for the position of the Most Powerful Man in the World. None. Except, perhaps that he spoke in mellifluous baritone, and that he looked clean and was articulate. Perhaps it was that he promised the poor that he would stick it to The White Man. Perhaps, just perhaps, it was because he was “black.”

As the election cycle came to a close, Obama moderated his message. Ever the chameleon, he promised lower taxes for the middle-class (the same middle-class his wife spoke against and told people to reject becoming).

Across the WORLD, we were told it was be a humiliating blow to Americans if Obama wasn’t elected. We were labeled “racists” for questioning his politics. One unfortunate citizen was even “investigated” for daring to ask Obama a question that lead the candidate to inadvertently reveal his socialist rationale for higher taxation.

Even the terrorists wanted us to elect Obama. Our ever objective and reliable media lambasted us and told us we had to prove to the world that hates us that we aren’t the racist barbarians they think us to be. IT IS TIME, AMERICA, they exclaimed.

So, with a bumbling Republican opponent, a complicit media and RNC leadership, as well as $600M of domestic and foreign contributions, Obama has been given the Office of the Presidency. Despite a pool of thousands of eminently more qualified people, he was made our Lord and Savior.

Now, every black and every hand-wringing liberal is elated. At long last, one of their own has gone where no black has gone before: The Oval Office. Michelle Obama is finally and truly proud of her country.

The time for change has finally come!

So, what’s the first thing Obama does? He offers a Chicago thug and long-time Clinton operative the position as his Chief of Staff. This after taking on a long-time Senate politician as his Vice-President. Obama is also arranging to appoint a Fairness Doctrine-friendly operative to head up the FCC in order to silence Talk Radio- Obama’s vocal opposition.

Smell that? That’s the winds of change. And the times, they are a-changing…

Black Wednesday

Obama has managed to secure the highest office in the land. The fact that he is a Marxist doesn’t concern his supporters. The fact that the media was entirely promoting and protecting him from scrutiny doesn’t concern his supporters. The fact that the Democrats were blatantly cheating and supporting voter fraud doesn’t concern his supporters.

It is a dark day indeed.

So a black man was elected president. Is that what this is all about? Seems like it. There was no other reason, other than to once again have an excuse to blame Bush for the world’s ills. Too bad the first black to be elected is a stealth communist who has promised to “rearrange” our society and the world.

What arrogance and malevolent intent. Obama actually believes he is a messiah of sorts. He thinks the size of his ego is about right for someone at his political level. His sizable ego is exactly what will lead this country toward a disastrous end.

I am going to pray for Barack Hussein Obama. I will pray that he finds the wisdom and judgment to lead our country well. To date, he hasn’t exhibited much of either. I will also pray that in his rush for ‘change,’ he does not entertain any serious notions of altering the Constitution. Obama has already said he sees the Constitution as fundamentally flawed. How can he honestly vow to uphold the Constitution if he disagrees with its premise?

There are many unanswered questions about Obama: He has not been forthright about his place of birth, his associations, or of his political record. It is for these reasons that he will remain suspect in my mind. He is about as NON-transparent a man as has ever run for office.

God save America.

The Post-America Progressives

After all of these years of my wondering why and how any American could hate his or her own country, I think I have figured it out. Americans who self-identify as “Progressive” aren’t really Americans any more. Not in their thoughts, words, or deeds. They are “Citizens of the World.”

Citizens of the World have ‘progressed’ past nationalism. Patriotism to such people is archaic, misguided, and petty. Far better to extol the virtues of the cosmopolitan than to wallow in the distasteful mud hole of patriotism.

Citizens of the World have progressed past the provincial values of American Puritanism and Judeo-Christian Moralism. In place of God, Progressives have taken to worshiping Earth. Led by former divinity student Al Gore, Progressives have chanted the mantras of fighting Global Warming (now Climate Change) in every news report, blog, and interview. In place of God, Progressives have taken to worshiping Obama as The One, the Messiah. The State is the new church, and the sycophantic Obamites are poised to enact His will as He stutteringly announces it.

Recently, Obama has said that he doesn’t “appreciate” people who make a virtue out of selfishness. The New Gospel According to Barack now adds industriousness, self-reliance, patriotism, and capitalism to the list of sins Americans must not commit.

Now that Obama seems to be the next President-Elect, every Communist member of the Democrat Party is spouting off with insane anti-American nonsense. Case in point: Congressman Moran (D), who essentially  told his constituents that being communistic is good and being capitalistic is bad. Seems McCarthy was absolutely correct. There were and are Commies that have infiltrated our government and who seek the downfall of this great country.

Today, as millions of Americans, illegal aliens, foreign nationals, and liberals vote, I pray that enough of the spirit of America still resides within the national bosom. I pray Obama is defeated, and that McCain has the wisdom to lead us out of the grievance-mongering, government-dependent mentality that the liberals and the media have fostered for decades.

I pray that Americans have reflected on the past two years and recognized a Do-Nothing Congress that has been every bit as unethical and corrupt as any other. Finally, I pray that this period of reflection is followed by a time of definition.

Do we want to be Americans or Progressives?

If we want to remain Americans, we need to strenuously uphold the Constitution. We need to stop allowing the failed philosophies of Multi-Culturalism and Political Correctness to sap us of our strength and freedoms (and tax dollars). We need to proudly wave our flag and thumb our noses at those who continually flip us the bird. In short, we need to grow a collective pair and tell any who threaten us that we will beat the ever-living crap out of them if they so much as look at us funny.

OR, we can choose to be Progressives and abandon any economic prosperity that we have hereto forth enjoyed. As Progressives, we can allow legislation from the bench, the complete obliteration of any sense of history, the complete removal of God from our buildings and coins, and the establishment of thought crimes.  That way, Obama’s “civilian security forces” can enforce prosecution of such crimes, in the name of The One.

I don’t know about you, but, I choose freedom and prosperity. I reject servitude to the State. And, I reject servitude to The One.
