Loosing our Identity, our freedom from tyranny and slavery

A Lot of Work Must Be Done to Head Off Socialism and Obama



This column is devoted to trying to convince Americans that we are about to lose our identity and worse, our freedom from tyranny and yes, SLAVERY.

Somewhere years ago, perhaps about 25 or so, America’s role of leadership in the world scene was obvious that she was the dominant force looked up to by just about every nation on earth. As a role model, there was no finer country as we seemed to have everything that any group of people would ever desire. And to make things more interesting, we were at a very fragile break-point as countries everywhere on the globe were frankly, jealous and desirous of our bounty. What made us so fragile was that we just didn’t know how to handle criticism and so any calumny or derision of our nation was accepted humbly and often with apology for fear that speaking back to the accusers would only bring on more negativity. This aura kept getting worse and our brow-beaten psyches allowed and even suggested that we surrender to those who berate us or of our embarrassment at having so many rich and plentiful bounties. Our earlier generations worked hard to perfect a land of plenty and when it was accomplished, we couldn’t enjoy all of its fruits due to a guilty conscience. This is when others of not nearly so well disciplined or aggressive character decided that they had to stop America from being so bountiful and make them share their plusses with the rest of the world; something that had actually already started voluntarily by Americans of good graces. Being the bread basket of the world we relished heaping our excesses on other nations trying to cure hunger in all corners and our caring was gladly received by those other lesser countries; to the point, in fact, that it was looked on by others as a mandatory penalty payment for having so much. This then was the beginnings of the spread of Socialism over the world where anyone who was fortunate enough to accumulate wealth and bounties beyond their immediate needs were expected to rid themselves of what they did not have to have to survive to those who had less; even if they had less because they were just too non-innovative or they refused to exert the needed effort to excel at their dally labors. It was easier to do nothing and reap the harvests of those who felt an extra effort was required to produce extra bounties. This then was the beginnings of the spread of the welfare class or those whose parasitical nature allowed them to unjustly demand equal sharing without equal production. And to our own eventual downfall we allowed this to happen as some with guilt consciences pored over what they felt was their selfishness, but which was really just misguided thought processes. These groups of socialist promoting individuals who would not rise up to provide for themselves began plotting a takeover of our great country as well as any other bountiful country. This then was the beginnings of spread of terrorism and terrorists as we know them today. People who had no loyalties or fealties to any particular country and preferred to roam and practice what was once called “squatter’s rights” where physical presence was considered as being entitlement to that area instead of lawful title as required by international law. Islamic people were the principal parties of such actions that were far from the normal civilized tenets of conduct and good will; but they placed their religious mores as their guiding instructions and most good people in the world allowed them to take what was not theirs and treat it as though it was. Complacency and lack of desire to defend their rights are what caused the invaded countries to simply back off. An online press called the “No Bull Newsletter” published an article on November 21, 2009, titled, “Who’s Really Running the Show?” written by Harold Poole in which he tells us of his feelings that “something is not quite right about Barack Obama”, a statement that echoes my sentiments to a ‘tee’. And we both agree that it isn’t anything health-wise, it’s just as Poole states, “wondering if Barack Obama is, in fact, the person who is actually functioning as President of the United States.” Poole says that Obama “actually seems lost at times… reacting to ideas about which he does not really have a clue.” And I have watched him at various times contradict himself on something he said just a scant amount of time before. The issue on the health care options is what I’ve seen and heard him differ on. And as Poole goes on, “He has left the writing of this health care bill to Nancy Pelosi’s House of Representatives and she, in turn, has farmed the writing out to several fairly radical community action groups. When questioned about health care, he seems not to know or understand the details and even with his silver-tongue seems unable to demonstrate any leadership on the issue” confirming my comment on health care options above. Poole also suggests that Obama seems lost on foreign policy and dealing with other world leaders, acting as a pawn of much more clever people. And like me, he sees Obama making flowery speeches which seldom result in any deals benefitting America. I have said for some time and in other columns that I really do believe that he is the “Manchurian candidate” or mouthpiece for someone or some separate group and Harold Poole concurs. At times it would appear that someone else is in charge and sending messages through Obama to pacify the young black community that is so wrongly endeared with him. Alinsky, Ayers, Emanuel, Holder, all seem capable of saying the political words that come out of Obama’s mouth, while Farrakhan originates his obeisance to Islamic dictates. Why does Obama feel that he needs all of those questionable characters who have checkered careers to show as not-so-worthy credentials to hold down “advisory” positions within his Cabinet and other administrative offices? And czars? Do we really need to be reminded of the communists who are heavily laced throughout our entire government? Czars? Might just as well call them Commissars. Then again, it may not be his decision; someone who is responsible for putting him in the position of getting elected may be calling those shots as well. The time is getting short to accomplish something that is really needed to be done to derail this speeding locomotive as it drives us nearer and nearer to the ugly land of Socialism. We MUST NOT allow Obama and friends to take us that far. He has taken us for a long ride already; we have to see that conservatives are elected in 2010 to take control of Congress. With that done, Obama’s effectiveness for his last two years will be in minus figures. Quite possibly he could be neutered until we change Chief Executives in 2012. But we still have to awaken those not paying attention to the damage he has done and plans to do while he is still in office. That is the Number One Priority.
