Obama's Wonderland Is No Fairy Tale
The American Thinker ^ | June 29, 2010 | Eileen F. Toplansky

Posted on 06/29/2010 2:52:12 AM PDT by Scanian

As we continue to tumble down the road to economic ruin, security vulnerability, and reduced health care benefits, things become "curiouser and curiouser." While President Obama speedily demands that General McChrystal zoom home to be dismissed from his post, the frustrated Gulf residents still cannot get all the equipment and assistance that they need to hold back the oil that is wrecking their homes and their livelihoods. Thus, one wonders as Alice in Wonderland did, "Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat. And herein is the American people's conundrum. Where do we want to go as this president continues to severely damage our country and her interests?

Even Europe understands the economic catastrophe that is upon us and wonders if "we're all mad here" as Obama and team continue to obfuscate the truth. Actor Jon Voight has publicly stated that Obama is lying to the American people. But of course, when Obama speaks, "it means just what [he] chooses it to mean -- neither more nor less."

"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."

"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master -- that's all."

And so, in the new Patients' Bill of Rights, Obama, "speaking ominously," has warned the health care insurance providers that the government will "be watching [them] closely."

The kenyan loves to use the "I" word...it's "me-me-me, I-I-I" all the time.

Well I have three "I-words" for dear leader...

Obama has already taken over student loans by making it unprofitable to stay in the private market. Some few banks are staying in the market but I’m not sure why. Maybe they are hoping to still have an operation and keep their key people if we get an American President again.

When questioned by senators about the massive expansion in hate crimes enforcement, Attorney General Holder responded that hate crimes legislation "would not necessarily cover" instances where whites, Christians, or military members were assaulted. Preferential treatment for blacks at the expense of whites and Asians was part of Obama's tenure during his time as senator. Double standards and obvious favoritism now reign supreme. Most egregious is Holder's dismissal of the case where New Black Panther Party members intimidated white voters. Does this portend things to come in November?

Speaks for itself.

"Our job is basically to keep the boot on the neck of British Petroleum," Salazar said, who often sports a Stetson and who four months ago stirred the ire of the oil business by saying unlike under his predecessors in the George W. Bush administration, oil companies would no longer be treated like "kings of the world."

I always suspected Democrats and Socialists took Orwell's 1984 as an instruction manual.

Indeed, after forty years of federal entitlement, there are too many Americans who may have vaguely remembered ideals like responsibility and individual initiative, who used to “know who [they were] when [they] got up this morning, but ... must have been changed several times since then.” Segments of Americans have lost their fundamental moorings or were never taught about the greatness of America and are now mesmerized by the empty slogans and the articulate nonsense of this president and the congress.

Many families lost their religious faith generations ago. Girls from good families flirt with unwed motherhood (she finally did get married). Daughters become addicted to meth with 3 children in tow. Divorces, cheating, the works and it goes on and on.

The voters are addicted, sleeping with their daughters boyfriends, divorcing, broke, getting abortions, experimenting with homosexuality, cut off from their religion or thier families, on welfare of some kind or another whether it’s prescription meds or AFDC, etc., etc.

It’s a damaged people and you can only heal that kind of damage one at a time and it’s a hard and long road to do that.

Pray.

This is an excellent article. Everyone should read it. The last line is brilliant. I selected this portion from the beginning because it bears repeating.

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat. And herein is the American people's conundrum. Where do we want to go as this president continues to severely damage our country and her interests?

Just what are we going to do, sit on our hands? One of today's headlines is about zero rallying support from labor unions and activists to help pass his immigration bs. When people? When is enough enough to rise up damn it?

Older loans have also been SOLD to the government for total control.

In the New Blank Panther case, the white people should have returned to the polls with guns.

Best practice is to have lots of lawyers traveling around to the polling stations to observe, some lawyers back at a base ready to file papers, with police or guards with right to carry firearms escorting.

Obama pointedly dislikes the exceptional nature of America and seeks to destroy it, but are all the congressional Democrats so hateful of the country they swore to serve?

Americans MUST wake up and accept this reality. Not only does obama seek to destroy the Republic, he has been remarkably successful so far.

They have taken over healthcare against our wishes and now will take over all aspects of our financial system. Crap and trade will put energy use under their control. That's all folks. You will live and die by the government's good graces.

obama is here to tear us down and take over. Americans MUST wake up and accept this reality. The truth is out there and it's blatant.
