Obama's women reveal his secret
Asia Times Online ^ | Feb 26, 2008 | Spengler

Posted on 02/25/2008 8:31:23 AM PST by KayEyeDoubleDee

"Cherchez la femme," advised Alexander Dumas in: "When you want to uncover an unspecified secret, look for the woman." In the case of Barack Obama, we have two: his late mother, the went-native anthropologist Ann Dunham, and his rancorous wife Michelle. Obama's women reveal his secret: he hates America.

We know less about Senator Obama than about any prospective president in American history. His uplifting rhetoric is empty, as Hillary Clinton helplessly protests. His career bears no trace of his own character, not an article for the Harvard Law Review he edited, or a single piece of legislation. He appears to be an empty vessel filled with the wishful thinking of those around him. But there is a real Barack Obama. No man - least of all one abandoned in infancy by his father - can conceal the imprint of an impassioned mother, or the influence of a brilliant wife...

"...they lived on food stamps, because sometimes dreams don't pay the rent. But as a result of her naivete, Barack got to see the world like most of us don't in this country." How strong the ideological motivation must be of a mother to raise her children on the thin fair of government assistance in pursuit of a political agenda...

Be afraid - be very afraid. America is at a low point in its fortunes, and feeling sorry for itself. When Barack utters the word "hope", they instead hear, "handout". A cynic might translate the national motto, E pluribus unum, as "something for nothing". Now that the stock market and the housing market have failed to give Americans something for nothing, they want something for nothing from the government. The trouble is that he who gets something for nothing will earn every penny of it, twice over...

"The ascendancy of BHO is the realization of the efforts of all the Cultural Marxists whose ideas were nurtured by the Gramcians who set up the Frankfurt School and spawned cultural radicals like Erich Fromm, Herbert Marcuse, and Theodore Adorno."

The Obama cult is like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton on magic mushrooms but with better suits and a slicker packaging for the Fabian Socialist agenda.

The swooning and fainting is strange but some liberals did go googoo-gahgah over Mikhail Gorbachev in the 1980s. That seemed like Stockholm Syndrome then, driven by liberal anxiety over the popularity and success of Reagan. Is something similar happening now? Deranged liberals look for a messiah and savior?

Okay, in my lifetime (which does not go back to WW1, lol) Europe has always been the joke of the world. ESPECIALLY France.

I just finished reading the entire article, and I must say that it was chilling in the stark (and I must say for the first time - TRUTHFUL) terms about Obama. This charlatan may have the Dims swooning - but as we know, that's no big deal - just hint at a free Government check and they all do that.

Mr. Obama has not really met Freepers, we pajama-clad ninjas of the information highway - until now. His life will get progressively revealed, as will his true motives for this country.

And, in the end, I predict that He will NOT stand... He will NEVER be President of our country, and both he and his hateful wife can go back to Illinois...

Liberals have such a hatred of Reagan, Republicans, and their own country, that they idiotically give Gorby the credit for winning the Cold War, lol. Bush Derangement Syndrome is nothing new. The hatred heaped on Nixon was just as bad. I always get these LWers to go ballistic, when I remind them that REAGAN won the Cold War, and THEY were on the OTHER SIDE.

You think liberals are more vulnerable to this?

When Gorbachev visited the U.S. in the '80s, the liberals who hated Reagan started raving about Gorbachev, what a genius he was, and almost like they expected him to solve global problems. That seemed strange then. It seemed like Stockholm Syndrome - people falling in love with their captors. Here's an account from 1987:

"Have you ever seen a Soviet motorcade go backward?

That's what happened today when Mikhail S. Gorbachev - after several days of hobnobbing with millionaires, movie stars, politicians, literati and socialites - suddenly decided that he wanted to mingle with the common folk.

If a spaceship had landed in the middle of Washington, it could not have caused more commotion. Pedestrians quivered with excitement. The Secret Service looked terrified. The K.G.B. looked stunned.

''The door opened, he got out, he walked right over and took my hand,'' said Kimberly Spartin, an account executive for Wang Laboratories, looking at her hand as though it were a foreign object. ''I'm still shaking. It was like the coming of the second Messiah or something.''

THE SUMMIT; As 'Gorby' Works the Crowd, Backward Reels the K.G.B. , MAUREEN DOWD, SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMES Published: December 11, 1987.

Deep down a lot of liberals LOVE Communists.

"''I'm still shaking. It was like the coming of the second Messiah or something.''

She said that about meeting Mikhail Gorbachev. It's something deeper with them than just Obama.

I remember seeing Gorby as Reagan’s funeral. I took one look at him and said to myself, “Reagan’s useful idiot.” That term was originally used by Lenin to describe the dingbats in the West who sympathized with Communism.

Truly stupid. These “useful idiots” don’t realize that THEY would be the first ones the Communists would kill if they ever took power. They think they would kill us, Republicans, lol. Maybe they have a death wish.

This whole nation has a collective death wish, and it's really getting to me.

This whole nation has a collective death wish, and it's really getting to me.

A little off topic, but the entire civilized world has a death wish the likes of which we haven't seen since 450AD and the collapse of Rome:

IQ and the Wealth of Nations

List of countries and territories by fertility rate

Circa 2020, our nation is going to fall apart at the seams from unsustainable demographic imperatives:
Senior benefit costs rise 24% since 2000

The Fiscal Cost of Low-Skill Immigrants to the U.S. Taxpayer

Statistical Abstract of the United States

Of U.S. Children Under 5, Nearly Half Are Minorities

PS: You know, I say that it's off-topic, but Spengler himself has written extensively about the impending collapse of what was once Western Civilization:
Spengler essays, 2004-2008

Spengler essays, 2000-2004

PPS: You say, "it's really getting to me", and, well, it ought to get to you.

Now is the time to plan for how you are going to defend yourself & your loved ones a few decades from now, when civilization is being overrun by barbarians, and when the bulk of [what had been] the productive part of the population is withering away in nursing homes.

The people who survive and persist will not only have to want to survive and persist, but they will also need to have formulated & executed a plan for surviving and persisting.

There are very few "African Americans, save those of recent immigrant parentage, like Colin Powell, who do not have significant amounts of "white" ancestry, and often some American Indian as well...

The show African American Lives 2 says that DNA test have show that it is largely a myth that African Americans have American Indian blood.

I recommend anyone catch it if they can.
