You Can Put Lipstick On a Pig…

During his campaign, Barack Obama was given a free pass by the entire global media and millions of American voters, most of whom seemed uninterested in his dubious associations.

Although there was a virtual treasure trove of documentary evidence chronicling his close ties to racist preacher Rev. Jeremiah Wright and unrepentant domestic terrorist William Ayers, there was a complete media blackout. Of those who did hear of Obama's past, many refused to believe it. Considering Obama's performance thus far, they can deny it no more. Immediately after his election, Obama began supplanting his Cabinet through the appointment of three dozen advisers, none of whom faced Senate confirmation. All of these people have direct accountability only to Obama. With these Czars, he has successfully positioned the United States government to be squarely in charge of nearly every aspect of American life and eroding much of our freedom in the process.

• He is attempting a government takeover of the entire health care industry, fully one fifth of all US economic output. But, thanks to a newly energized electorate, he has a knock-down, drag-out fight on his hands.
• He has wrested control of the interrogations of terrorist detainees from the CIA to some newly created, Executive-level task force who will ensure they have plenty of rights, including the right not to talk.
He has attempted to control the Census. Early on in his administration, he attempted to placate his opponents by appointing
• Senator Judd Gregg as token Commerce Secretary, but signaled that he does intend to have ultimate control over the decennial head count, ensuring that illegal aliens will help gerrymander even more Democrat seats into existence. They'll need it...
• He may soon control the entire domestic US Internet backbone. Proposed Senate Legislation would grant Obama sweeping powers to take control of the corporate Internet infrastructure throughout America and even allowing him to shut down all or part of it in an emergency. As with every attempt by Democrats to give Obama more power, or Obama himself to just grab it, no one is providing a definition of what constitutes an "emergency".
• He may soon control your very freedom of movement. The moment that Swine Flu entered the public consciousness, the Obama Administration was seeking ways of exerting control. The government has already signaled it is willing to use untested vaccines, raising the very real possibility that forced vaccinations, involuntary quarantines and suspension of your Fourth Amendment rights may be needed by the government to ensure "compliance". All for a disease that is proving to be no more virulent than the common flu that spreads through the US every year.
• He is attempting to control the masses through subtle forms of brainwashing and technology tracking that are quietly being introduced to an unsuspecting public. Tracking techniques such as spam emails and tracking cookies on all government websites. Propaganda methods such as flashy Hollywood commercials with washed up actors pledging to be a "servant" to Obama, plans by the Democratic National Committee to use the 9/11 anniversary to label health care opponents as right-wing, domestic "terrorists" and the indoctrination of school-age children into Obama's Cult of Personality because the adults in this country have figured out who Barack Obama really is and are no longer listening,
• He will soon have control over conservative talk radio, through the use of a stooge who will implement "diversity" regulations and tax rates equal to 100 percent of a conservative station's operating costs.

In order to exert this type of control, Obama has recruited some of the most radical liberal ideologues imaginable. Take Van Jones, a Yale-educated, self-described communist with a colorful vocabulary. Jones was a special adviser to the President on Green Jobs at the White House Council on Environmental Quality, until he was forced to resign late Saturday night. But, his resignation should not signal the end to this controversy. Ironically, notwithstanding the fact that thousands of Americans nationwide are being labeled kooks and conspiracy theorists, simply because they want proof positive of Barack Obama's place of birth, Jones is a real-life conspiracy kook, having been signatory number 46 to a petition circulated by 911truth.org, an organization of bad actors, Democrat activists and other "respected" leaders that actually believe our government let the September 2001 attacks happen simply to justify starting a war. Jones' resignation statement blamed his demise on the smears of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy, rather than his own foul-mouthed diatribes, his pro-Communist beliefs, which advocate for a "whole new system", or the signature that he placed on that ridiculous petition. He even tried to downplay his own signature, claiming that he really didn't read the petition, but 911truth.org stated emphatically that all signatories knew exactly what they were signing. When that didn't work, he said the petition didn't reflect his views. Pathetic. How is it that this person, (I would say man, but a man owns up to his mistakes, hence is not applicable here), a proud Communist, was allowed anywhere near the White House? Either Obama's vetting process failed once again to uncover public information available to any 8th-grader with an Internet connection, Van Jones lied about his past, a crime, or Obama knew about Jones' beliefs but didn't see a problem. Based on the recent statements of White House adviser Valerie Jarrett, she and Obama have been following Jones "closely" for years. You can put lipstick on a pig, but regardless of how much you try and cover it up, it's still just a pig. Conversely, you can take Barack Obama, peg his birth in Hawaii, put him through the best Ivy League education in the world, dress him up in a fancy suit and prop him up on the most powerful podium on Earth in front of his Teleprompter, but he's still a socialist. It's time to put an end to the appointment of these special advisers, many more of whom have asinine, even dangerous beliefs, and force all three dozen of Obama's Czars, through background checks and Senate confirmation, as the rule of law prescribes.
