Our government’s reckless assault on our liberty and way of life continues to threaten our Constitutional system of checks and balances. It’s clear that those in Washington care more about their power offices and positions than they do about the American people.
The chief culprit of these assaults is the current commander-in-chief: Barack Hussein Obama. OK fondly remembers old Irwin Allen produced TV shows such as Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and Lost in Space, sci-fi yarns loaded with bombast and mayhem. Allen was so good at celluloid devastation that [he] was crowned the “master of disaster.”
It’s too bad that these days we have to deal with a real-life master of ‘man-caused’ political disaster: Obama.
Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann recently challenged Obama’s power grab of General Motors, which she called “Government Motors” Bachmann mentioned that some [dealerships] who had connections were allowed to remain open, where others without such connections were told to close their doors. (Barney Frank went to bat for a dealership in his district.) Bachmann quoted Michael Barrone when she called the government’s recent antics and power grabs “Gangster Government.” She then challenged, “Is this what its come to?” (Scott Martin, “Bachmann: Obama’s Gangster Government,” June 16, 2009, http://patriotroom.com/article/bachmann-obama-s-gangster-government).
Apparently so.
More Obama-engineered disaster is evidenced in his appointing 21 “czars” that taxpayers know nothing about. They are not elected officials, they were not vetted by Congress and they can’t be voted out.
OK believes that Obama does more than flex political clout with his czar appointments. We think he’s abusing the power of his office.
It seems like America is becoming Al Capone-era Chicago, folks. We need to rebel against Obama’s socialist politics and “Gangster Government.”
