Community Organizer in Chief



We've never had a "community organizer" as our President before. And we are seeing the disastrous consequences of putting this community organizer at the head of the most powerful nation in the world. He has taken the apparatus of government and used it solely to organize, or as he calls it, fundamentally transform, the nation into a characterization of his ideal world.
The consequences have, of course, not been the creation of the utopia the leftists have been fighting to obtain. Instead, our economy flounders and our nation’s territorial integrity has been decimated as he allows thousands of people across the border to be resettled in neighborhoods of his choosing. On Meet the Press Sunday, July 20, Secretary of State John Kerry said, “I think the American people ought to be proud of what this President has done in terms of peaceful, diplomatic engagement, rather than quick-trigger deploying troops, starting or engaging in a war of choice. I think the President’s on the right track. In this fantasy world of the Obama Administration, what they call success is radical Islamists taking over more countries, the Russians spreading their borders unhindered, and American prestige in the world in a sorry state. So, as a successful community organizer, Obama was able to win masses of people to a political cause and get himself elected President because of it. But he has been an utter failure as Chief Administrator of the nations affairs.

Chairman Mao's Great Leap Forward, actually led to the death of millions as rural people starved and industrial development went nowhere

One of the Obama Administration heroes, Chairman Mao, had a similar problem in China but, since he was able to take absolute power there, the results were extremely more disastrous. Many who were his political opponents were put to death and a failed attempt at rapid industrialization in 1958, called the Great Leap Forward, actually led to the death of millions as rural people starved and industrial development went nowhere. Much like our community organizer President, Mao knew how to take power, but didn’t really have a clue as how to administer once he was in power. The Cultural Revolution was Mao’s next ultimate failure. To Chairman Mao, the initial takeover of a country didn't end the revolution. Mao saw there being a need for permanent revolution, in which things had to be permanently in flux. The people, particularly the young people, needed to continually see that there was an oppressive enemy that needed to be attacked. The established order of things had to continually be transformed into a new order. Old ways had to be continually purged in a revolutionary manner. As the Cultural Revolution began in 1966, and continued into the 1970s, the chaos and violence caused by a society in tumult led to near economic collapse. Schools were closed down for ten years, and businesses were closed down permanently or for years at a time as the "capitalist roader" enemies were paraded through the streets by the numerous Red Guard factions. It was a time of utter lawlessness, where family member was set against family member. The Cultural Revolution had its appeal to communists in other countries, too. During this time, Communist China’s government media praised the efforts of Pol Pot in Cambodia as, unbeknownst to the world, the bodies began piling up in the Killing Fields, resulting in the death of 1.7 million people, nearly a quarter of Cambodia’s population. Pol Pot, in his interpretation of permanent revolution, saw the need to make everyone an agricultural worker. Becoming a businessman or a professional would no more be allowed and those who had been businessmen or were going through college were subject to torture and execution. As the madness continued, those his goons could imprison were put under forced labor, and all who wouldn’t comply or whom they felt represented the past to them, faced execution. With two-and-a-half years to go in our current regime of fundamental transformation, our constitution is still functional enough to keep Obama from totally having his way and creating a national nightmare like Mao or Pol Pot. But we need to be vigilant and keep the political fight going while we still can. This includes turning out of office those who endorse Obama’s mad schemes as well as those who would compromise with it for their political self-interest.
