Is Obama Able To 'Seal' The Deal?
IBD Editorials ^ | June 23, 2008

Posted on 06/23/2008 7:45:42 PM PDT by Kaslin

Campaign '08: Barack Obama clubs the presidential seal as he announces to the world that anyone who opposes him is a racist. With almost messianic arrogance, he has proclaimed he will save us from ourselves.


When Democratic presidential candidate Obama spoke during a meeting of Democratic governors in Chicago last Friday, a new seal adorned his podium.

It had nothing in common with the presidential seal he could one day stand behind — a seal we are familiar with as a representation of American strength and our desire for peace through strength.

The presidential seal shows an eagle clutching both arrows and an olive branch and the national motto "E pluribus unum" (Out of many, one). It's a tribute to the American dream, to the American melting pot and to our willingness to defend it.

Obama's seal, which he has since dropped, was quite different. For some reason, Obama felt the need to dispense with his usual "Change You Can Believe In" sign and create a symbol that was at once eerily similar and disturbingly different.

The top of the seal sported the words "Obama" and "America" in large type as if they were one phrase and the election were not about our future but his. It also had iconography used in the U.S. presidential seal, but Obama's said "Vero possumus," rough Latin for "Truly, we are able," akin to the Obama slogan, 'Yes, we can.

Obama is a charlatain and a sham. In a typical liberal fashion, he is trying to get out in front of an issue, by painting his opponents with it. In fact, Obama himself is racist.

But Obama's ardent followers (including most of the MSM) are not swayed by logic, reason, or truth, and regardless of his positions, his gaffes, his past, or his associations, they worship him as an idol.


Nothing you can say or do will convince these people otherwise...


Because I am the one they and I have been waiting for...and I am lovin' it.

Those wild-eyed people represent the millions of Americans raised in the government day-care and indoctrination centers we call public schools who did not have, or would not listen to, parents and others who tried to counterweight the propaganda they heard at school...who have been raised on 60 second sound bite time spans and know no better.

You have other tens of millions on the dole who will vote for him regardless of position because he promises to keep pilfering the public largess for them.

Still othes of millions will vote for him simply because he is black, not caring to hear or look at his actual positions.

Other millions will vote for him because they know exactly who he is and what he represents and agree with his anti-American positions.

The first three are all what is termed, useful idiots, a term coined by Lennin for the dupes he got to support him.

Against this it is left to us to educate, arouse, and amass the tens of millions of Americans, of all races and creeds, who understand and hold fast to the foundational principles our constitutional republic rests upon...many of them the bitter, rural Americans clinging to their guns and religion that Obama so arrogantly spoke of.

Finally, understand that this is not the first time in history that rock-star, messianic status has been conferred on a populist, charismatic individual in order to hand them the reigns of power. Although there are many critical differences, still it is important when you consider the danger that this candidate poses to American foreign policy, our economy, our social fabric, and to the war we are fighting against fanatical Islamic Jihad terrorists, to note the following comparison:


A populsitic, charismatic, self-serving individual has a way of mesmerizing foolish people looking for an idol...then and now.

Barack Hussein Obama is the apex of the hate-America, domestic enemy in this country. His election as president would be the greatest coup any enemy has ever scored against this country and could easily lead to the worst, horrific disaster in our nation's history.

Odd isn’t it, Obama has boxed himself into kind of a certain elitism, that he feels that he has earned simply by being half black. No one can ask questions of the great and magnificent Obama.........otherwise you will be branded at racist, because in Obama’s world, he shall not be questioned on his motives, issues, because he has a “holier than thou” attitude... Honestly Obama get over yourself.

The McCain camp and the GOP has got to have an October surprise up their sleeve. Maybe someone has a video of B. Hussein in the limo “doin’ the deed” with Larry Sinclair.

I have said a long time ago that Obama is a charlatan. The sad thing is that people are falling for him.

BTW I received the bumper stickers today and I put the one showing on my car.

And the cowardly, liberal fools who brought all of this about, actually believe they will find their “utopia” instead!

They will be happy now that their daddies have finally been avenged (C Jane Fonda and Hillary Clinton and friends)!

I think from here on in we and all Conservative commentators should refer to them as “mind-numbed robots.” That is what they are and since they liked to throw that around about Rush listeners all those years ago, I think the time has come.

Wishful thinking.

The only "surprise" is the deer-in-headlights look they'll have when the Donks' convention is done, and She Who Must Not Be Named is the selected nominee of Her party.

Obama's seal, which he has since dropped,

Obama Flip Flop.

In 5 days he has already abandoned his new logo. Phony as a 3 dollar bill and probably just as queer.

C'mon, Old Sarge, it's time to put down the Jim Beam bottle. You don't really believe that do you? But, I must say, I'd be one happy camper if that did happen. Better the witch you know than the devil you don't know. And, talk about throwing the 'Rat Party into chaos.....

She Who Must Not Be Named has not conceded the nomination - She has only “suspended” her campaign - She has not released Her delegates - and She has 900 FBI files with which to “convince” the superdelegates as to the correct vote.

I’ll counter yours with one of mine: do you really think that She, the most ruthless woman to ever stalk the halls of power, has come this close to the presidency She was promised by Her husband, to simply hand the nomination over to an upstart?

No, but I believe that if Hillary had the “power” to wrestle the nomination from B. Hussein she would have done so before now.

But, don’t misunderstand me; I put nothing past the Clintons. I’d love to see her snatch the nomination from him and see complete chaos in the DemocRATic Party.
