Obama - the Great Pretender

The emperor with no clothes, Barack Obama, becomes a more frightening figure with each passing day.

Firstly, the man has failed to reveal his long form birth certificate. Instead he touts his "certificate of live birth" as proving his birthplace in Honolulu. However, in 1961 many "certiicates of live birth" were obtained by foreign-born persons. In addition, the standard long-form birth certificate is needed to qualify for programs such as those offered by the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands.

The empty suits in the media are so in love with this guy they have gladly swept the issue under the rug.

Congressmen have gone so far as to sign on to measures to demand evidence (H.R. 1503), and lawyers have filed dozens of suits seeking access to his birth records. However, the stench occupying the bench have yet to hear them out.

A billboard campaign has been launched asking, “Where’s the Birth Certificate.” Already media outfits Clear Channel, CBS, and Lamar have banned such ads. Hundreds of threads that had thousands of posts about his eligibility were recently deleted off of the White House website on "open government dialogue”(opengov.ideascale.com).

If this is such a concern for the administration it could be ended by one simple act. Show the birth certificate and and the issue will end abruptly. The amount of public outcry coupled with the stringent efforts of the administration and media to silence the critics gives validity to this concern.

The logical conclusion seems to be that there is no long-form birth certificate. If there was, why would he not reveal it?

Recently his previously concealed and downplayed Muslim roots were revealed. Another issue that was avoided and lied about during the campaign.

During a conference call in preparation for President Obama's trip to Cairo, Egypt, where he addressed the Muslim world, deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications Denis McDonough said "the President himself experienced Islam on three continents before he was able to -- or before he's been able to visit, really, the heart of the Islamic world -- you know, growing up in Indonesia, having a Muslim father -- obviously Muslim Americans (are) a key part of Illinois and Chicago."

This statement paints quite a different picture then Obama’s comment at a Boca Raton, town hall meeting on May 22, 2008, "My father was basically agnostic, as far as I can tell, and I didn't know him," he said.

In September 2008, Obama told a Pennsylvania crowd, “And that's what the Republicans when they say this isn't about issues, it's about personalities, what they're really saying is, 'We're going to try to scare people about Barack. So we're going to say that, you know, maybe he's got Muslim connections'...just making stuff up."

Then on April 6 in his address to the Turkish Parliament, President Obama referenced how many "Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim majority country. I know, because I am one of them.”

During the campaign he apparently had no history of Islamic ties, he claimed his father to be an agnostic. Now mere months into his Presidency his security adviser references Obama's Muslim father and Obama himself speaks about his Islamic ties. But what can you expect from a man who sat in Reverend Wright’s church for wenty years, but apparently knew nothing of the man’s controversial remarks.

So maybe I am being unfair, after all these are just concerns about his citizenship and his downplayed Muslim ties. What is important he claims are the issues, and that it is not about his personal ties. So let us look at the man on his issues. Recently he stated that Iran has a right to nuclear power, as long as it is used for peaceful means. And why not give the Iranians a chance. I’m sure if we sit down with them we can reach an agreement. Never mind that they have defied every UN resolution ever created, that Iranian President Ahmadinejad refers to the U.S. as the "Great Satan", wants to “wipe Israel off the map”, and is prepared to usher in the mahdi with chaos. Give them a chance to be peaceful, and if they destroy all the Jews in another holocaust, then we will discipline them. So what if the world loses a few million Jews, nuclear holocaust isn’t that big of a deal.

But maybe I should leave policy up to the great Chairman Obama after all he did serve a partial term in the US Senate.

Then again one should not come down too hard on his foreign policy, he has to focus on the issues at home. After all we are in economic turmoil.

Congressman Sessions said in May that Obama “aims to end capitalism” and he has already made great strides in doing so. Obama fired GM CEO although time and again, General Motors Corp.'s board of directors reaffirmed its support for Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner, even as the company piled up billions of dollars in losses and begged for government loans to stay alive. Obama already drunk on his power gave himself the authority to control a then private enterprise. The Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez was recently quoted as saying, "Hey, Obama has just nationalized nothing more and nothing less than General Motors. Comrade Obama! Fidel, careful or we are going to end up to his right."

In addition the Democratically controlled Congress is in the process of passing a new regulation that would give the treasury department the authority to set "fair" maximum salaries, evaluate performance and dictate in what manner private companies can issue pay raises and bonuses.

The intervention does not stop there. The government now controls Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, General Motors, as well as insurance giant AIG. In addition they have effectively dictated Chrysler's moves, as well as become large stock holders in hundreds of banks, including Bank of America and Citibank. Given government's past inefficiencies with managing their own budgets and issues (i.e. 11.3 trillion dollar national deficit), it seems grossly naive to think they can effectively run a corporation. This coupled with Obama's non-experience running any sort of business is cause for grave concern.

Top Democratic Senators Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid called Bush's budgets "dangerous" and "unpatriotic."

They called the Republican budget “irresponsible” because it increased the amount of U.S. debt held by foreign countries. Senator Harry Reid accused Republicans of going on “an unprecedented and dangerous borrowing spree” and declared GOP leadership “the most fiscally irresponsible in the history of our country … no other president or Congress even comes close.” Not surprisingly under Obama they have changed their rhetoric.

After beginning with a Clinton-era surplus of $128 billion in fiscal year 2001, the Bush administration racked up deficits of $158 billion in 2002, $378 billion in 2003, $413 billion in 2004, $318 billion in 2005, $248 billion in 2006, $162 billion in 2007, and $410 billion in 2008.

The current administration would love to have such small numbers. President Barack Obama unveiled his budget in early March, and, in addition to the inherited Bush deficit, he’s adding his own spending at an astonishing pace, projecting annual deficits well beyond $1 trillion in the near future.

And what about the national debt? It increased from $5 trillion to $10 trillion during the Bush administration, leading to exceptionally higher interest costs.

Now, under Obama, the national debt, and the interest rates, will increase at a much more accelerated rate than during the Bush years.

“We thought the Bush deficits were big at the time,” Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, “But this is going to make the previous administration look like rank amateurs. We could be adding multiple trillions to the national debt in the first year.”

n the course of four days, we saw the signing of the $787 billion stimulus bill, the unveiling of a $275 billion housing proposal, discussion of Congress’s remaining appropriations bills (about $400 billion) and word of an obscurely defined financial stabilization plan that could ultimately cost $2 trillion.

Obama’s current spending proposals will cost more than the United States spent on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the war on terror, and Hurricane Katrina in the last seven years. And that is before you tack on the $2 trillion fiscal stabilization plan.

“This is big government, man,” McConnell exclaimed “It makes previous attempts at big government pale in comparison — they’re going to go beyond the New Deal and the Great Society by far.”

High interest rates and an increasing number of foreign debt-holders will get worse.

Make no mistake about it we are descending into marxism at an accelerated rate. If this keeps up for over a year to quote Stanislav Mishin, “America at best will resemble the Weimar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.”

Snippet from press media in Canada!

I would like to see the U.S. Armed Forces engaged in a similar action here!!

"Behold the man. Behold the coward.

By contrast when Honduras’ legislature and supreme court acted to remove President Manuel Zelaya, a close ally of Chavez, who had fired the head of the army and attempted to stage a coup by violating the Constitution, Obama and his people have been working around the clock to restore Zelaya to power, even while stating that they want the whole thing to be “free from external influence and interference” (the hypocrisy on that line alone is almost enough to choke even Chavez himself). The question is why?

But of course it’s not that difficult of a question. Not when you think like a coward. Not when you think like Obama.>p> Why wouldn’t Obama panic at the sight of a Congress and Supreme Court removing a left wing Socialist President who violated the Constitution in pushing to make himself el-presidente for life, by violating term limits. Let alone the military dumping said President across border.

Obama no doubt has nightmares of waking up on a C-31 transport to Kenya, after enough of his wrongdoing leads him to being booted out of the White House by what remains of the American legislative and judicial infrastructure.

Today Manuel “ALBA” Zelaya. Tomorrow it could be Barry “Hussein” Obama. And Barry knows better than anyone else the full catalog of lies, crimes and scandals brewing beneath his regime. Obama’s rise to power has been part of an American hemisphere trend that covers the likes of Chavez, Zelaya, Correa, Silva and even the return of Kerry’s old buddy, Ortega, to power in Nicaragua. What all of them have in common with Obama is a left wing socialist agenda that ignores the rule of law. An attack against Zelaya, could in Obama’s mind be seen an attack against him equally.

If the rollback of socialist tyranny begins in Honduras, it might spread. If Brazil, Venezeula and Ecuador follow-- might not the democractic revolution spread to America as well, and make the Prince of Chicago’s throne shakier than ever?

That is how a coward thinks, and Obama is nothing if not a coward. And like all cowards, he knows how little he deserves what he has, and how easy it would be for him to lose it all. A gang of greedy and deluded followers, and a nationwide 24/7 propaganda blitz can only do so much. After all there isn’t a socialist tyrant in the hemisphere who hasn’t had the same thing. And yet the latest of them is enjoying a well deserved vacation in Venezuela. A profile in cowardice. A liar and a manipulator who serves his own ends first and his host country’s, last.

Heavy hangs the head that wears the ill-gotten crown. From one corner of the globe to another, Obama flits back and forth, delivering speeches and posing for photos. Like a rat rubbing against a rosebush, hoping some of the loose petals will attach themselves to him so that he can appear more like a rosebush and less like a rat, Obama hopes that going through the motions of being a world leader will actually get people to confuse him with a world leader.

Yet his mumbling silence on Iran speaks far more eloquently about the sort of man Obama is, than all his scripted speeches ever could. Obama has been compared to JFK, but what he represents is no profile in courage, but a profile in cowardice. A liar and a manipulator who serves his own ends first and his host country’s, last. Who proclaims, Ask not what I can do for your country, Ask what your country can do for me. And above all else, a craven coward."

How come we always get such from foreign countries' media and not from the Slimes, Compost or LA Slimes??? Those medias are more involved in who got the death-story of M.J. first than real issues as mentioned above. The U.S. journalism died long ago. I like the "C-31"!!!
