For a president who campaigned on the fact that he would be the great unifier of America, he has proven to be the exact opposite. Besides the fact that he has pitted political parties against each other in the most intense, ferocious ways since the American Revolution, he has also inflicted policies and programs that are fiscally murdering our country. He instigates social, economic and class warfare at every turn and his administration constantly and unjustly accuses Conservatives of racism.
The only way our states have been united lately was when 27 of them filed lawsuits against Obamacare.
Here are just a few of the states that have had tangles with Obama and his DOJ; I know there are more so please feel free to add your own in the comments below.
Alabama: The Obama administration asked an appeals court to block the enforcement of Alabamas strict immigration law arguing it invites discrimination against foreign-born citizens and legal immigrants and is at odds with federal policy.
Arizona: The Obama administration sued the state of Arizona because of their immigration laws. (The DOJ also sued Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio.)
Arkansas: The DOJ sued the state of Arkansas over the states disabilities act.
Georgia: The DOJ threw out part of Georgias election laws.
Louisiana: Obama waited 30 days before visiting Louisiana during the BP oil spill. (In contrast, three days after Katrina, President Bush was being accused of racism for not reacting fast enough )
Massachusetts: Obama interfered with Cambridge police, saying they acted stupidly and resulting in a beer summit
New York: Obama is currently encouraging the slugs protesting on Wall Street, possibly because they represent his lifes work. He was (and will always be) a community organizer and he is absolutely taking advantage of this crisis as a way to once again blame President Bush for all his economic failures.
Oklahoma: DOJ tried to strong-arm the state into rejecting an English-only referendum by saying it could cost Oklahoma federal funding.
Pennsylvania: Obama gave his speech about bitter Pennsylvanians (and the Mid-west in general) clinging to their guns and religion.
Pennsylvania: The DOJ threw out the Black Panther voter intimidation case. Eric Holder summed his feelings about this case in a very strong way when he gave his my people speech: When you compare what people endured in the South in the 60s to try to get the right to vote for African Americans, and to compare what people were subjected to there to what happened in Philadelphiawhich was inappropriate, certainly that to describe it in those terms I think does a great disservice to people who put their lives on the line, who risked all, for my people.
Tennessee: The DOJ raided Gibson Guitars looking for illegal wood
Tennessee: Obama ignored flooding in Tennessee.
Texas: Obama ignored Texas pleas for help with wildfires, sent help to Mexico instead. (Recently Obama mocked Governor Perry, claiming the Texas fires were caused by climate change )
Texas: Obama ignored Governor Perrys pleas for help with immigration. Perry gave Obama a letter on the airport tarmac asking for more National Guardsmen for Texas borders after Obama refused to meet with him.
Texas: Obama asked Gov. Perry to commute a Mexican nationals death sentence. Humberto Leal Garcia Jr. raped and murdered a 16-year old girl.
Virginia: Virginia ruled Obamacare unconstitutional. (A federal appeals court later dismissed the lawsuit.)
Meanwhile, the only time I can recall the Obama administration talking about defending American citizens was when DOJs Eric Holder said this:
The Presidents pledge for a new beginning between the United States and the Muslim community takes root here in the Justice Department where we are committed to using criminal and civil rights laws to protect Muslim Americans.
And that pretty much sums it all up. Sigh
This is Race Card written all over it.
That’s the plan. Divide and conquer. It’s a commie thing.
None of this should be a surprise to ANYone.
It has been his agenda since well before he was elected — and he is just a string puppet for his handlers.
Facts - who needs ‘em?

What I mean is . . . those who claim Zero is a divider will have the “racist” tag around their necks in as much time as it takes Zero to say, “Let me be clear . . . .”
I came across this hilarious video.

But then this one offers me hope (warning you need patience to watch. This young African American kid talks a little slow but he has a lot to say)

They don’t want this fight. He forgets why people work hard and make it happen. This dishwasher will kick ass. I don’t take names.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
...the “great uniter”
That’s the idea...divide and conquer. Moving along nicely according to his master plan.
I’m glad that my half (of the divided country) is the half with the guns and money. :-)
