SOL: The
election is getting close so the Republican anti-Obama campaign will now be in
full force. The Republicans claim they will spend more on campaign ads the last
week before the election than they spent the whole month of
September.
The following article finally exposes what all of
the anti-Obama fanatics will never admit. That they just can not see a
BLACK IN THE WHITEHOUSE. From day one the Republican's whole purpose was to
do whatever it takes to make Obama a ONE TERM PRESIDENT and they did it by
shutting down every bi-partisan effort Obama made to get new legislation
passed. The second two years of the Obama Administration had a do nothing
Congress because the Republicans refused to work with a BLACK PRESIDENT or pass
any of his bills, even though it meant our economy and loss of jobs for the
people may have to wait until the DO-NOTHING Republicans can reclaim the
WhiteHouse. The major problem is this is Romney's third attempt at the
Presidency and he is still not not a viable candidate and never will be FOR we
the people. Romney really has no say because the REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE
IS ONLY FOR THE ELITIST ONE PERCENT, NOT FOR THE 98% OF WE THE PEOPLE, so Romney
has to lie about almost every part of his platform in order to SELL himself and
the elitist to the reluctant voters.
As I've said before, I voted for Ron Paul in
the primary and am not necessarily an Obama fan but I am forced again to vote
for the "LESSOR OF TWO EVILS. The bottom line is neither party is really for
We-The-People but the Republicans are mostly for CORPORATE AMERICA,
MULTINATIONALS, OIL INDUSTRY and the BANKSTERS, far more than the
Demoncrats.
THE WASHINGTON POST HITS OBAMA!
I too have become disillusioned
By Matt Patterson

Examiner)
Years from now, historians may regard the 2008 election of
Barack Obama as an inscrutable and disturbing phenomenon, the result of a
baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the Middle
Ages. How, they will wonder, did a man so devoid of professional
accomplishment beguile so many into thinking he could manage the world's largest
economy, direct the world's most powerful military, execute the world's most
consequential job? Imagine a future historian examining Obama's
pre-presidential life: ushered into and through the Ivy League despite
unremarkable grades and test scores along the way; a cushy non-job as a
"community organizer"; a brief career as a state legislator devoid of
legislative achievement (and in fact nearly devoid of his attention, so often
did he vote "present"); and finally an unaccomplished single term in the United
States Senate, the entirety of which was devoted to his presidential
ambitions.
He left no academic legacy in academia, authored no signature
legislation as a legislator. And then there is the matter of his troubling
associations: the white-hating, America-loathing preacher who for decades served
as Obama's "spiritual mentor"; a real-life, actual terrorist who served as
Obama's colleague and political sponsor. It is easy to imagine a future
historian looking at it all and asking: how on Earth was such a man elected
president?
Not content to wait for history, the incomparable Norman
Podhoretz addressed the question recently in the Wall Street Journal: To be
sure, no white candidate who had close associations with an outspoken hater of
America like Jeremiah Wright and an unrepentant terrorist like Bill Ayers, would
have lasted a single day. But because Mr. Obama was black, and therefore
entitled in the eyes of liberal Dom to have hung out with protesters against
various American injustices, even if they were a bit extreme, he was given a
pass. Let that sink in: Obama was given a pass - held to a lower
standard - because of the color of his skin.
Podhoretz continues: And in any case, what did such ancient
history matter when he was also so articulate and elegant and (as he himself had
said) "non-threatening," all of which gave him a fighting chance to become the
first black president and thereby to lay the curse of racism to rest?
Podhoretz puts his finger, I think, on the animating pulse of
the Obama phenomenon - affirmative action. Not in the legal sense, of course.
But certainly in the motivating sentiment behind all affirmative action laws and
regulations, which are designed primarily to make white people, and especially
white liberals, feel good about themselves.
Unfortunately, minorities often suffer so that whites can pat
themselves on the back. Liberals routinely admit minorities to schools for which
they are not qualified, yet take no responsibility for the inevitable poor
performance and high drop-out rates which follow. Liberals don't care if these
minority students fail; liberals aren't around to witness the emotional
devastation and deflated self-esteem resulting from the racist policy that is
affirmative action. Yes, racist. Holding someone to a separate standard merely
because of the color of his skin - that's affirmative action in a nutshell, and
if that isn't racism, then nothing is.
And that is what America did to Obama. True, Obama himself was
never troubled by his lack of achievements, but why would he be? As
many have noted, Obama was told he was good enough for Columbia despite
undistinguished grades at Occidental; he was told he was good enough for the US
Senate despite a mediocre record in Illinois ; he was told he was good enough to
be president despite no record at all in the Senate. All his life, every step of
the way, Obama was told he was good enough for the next step, in spite of ample
evidence to the contrary.
What could this breed if not the sort of empty narcissism on
display every time Obama speaks? In 2008, many who agreed that he lacked
executive qualifications nonetheless raved about Obama's oratory skills,
intellect, and cool character. Those people - conservatives included - ought now
to be deeply embarrassed.
The man thinks and speaks in the hoariest of clichés, and
that's when he has his Teleprompters in front of him; when the prompter is
absent he can barely think or speak at all. Not one original idea has
ever issued from his mouth - it's all warmed-over Marxism of the kind that has
failed over and over again for 100 years.
And what about his character? Obama is constantly blaming
anything and everything else for his troubles. Bush did it; it was bad luck; I
inherited this mess. It is embarrassing to see a president so willing to
advertise his own powerlessness, so comfortable with his own
incompetence. But really, what were we to expect? The man has never
been responsible for anything, so how do we expect him to act
responsibly?
In short: our president is a small and small-minded man, with
neither the temperament nor the intellect to handle his job. When
you understand that, and only when you understand that, will the current erosion
of liberty and prosperity make sense. It could not have gone otherwise with such
a man in the Oval Office.
Please pass after you read this one. Suddenly people are getting
wise to this enemy of our USA!
