Barack Obama has had close ties to Marxists, including unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, and Obama’s relative Kenya’s Odinga, “Your Agent for Change,” the violent anti-American thug who made a pact with the Muslims to institute Sharia (Islamic law). Those ties, added to his plans to “redistribute the wealth,” concern many Americans.
There’s the hope, however, that even if Obama were elected, the checks and balances in the U.S. will make it impossible for Obama to impose Marxism in the U.S. and deliver the U.S. to its enemies.
But are those checks and balances in place? With Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the U.S. Congress has turned dangerously left and is being manipulated by the likes of Chávez and his Islamic terrorists and Russian friends. Only the worst can be expected if the U.S. ends up with a Marxist president working with a Congress manipulated by Marxists and Islamic terrorists.
On April 2008, Latin American U.S. friends were shocked to learn that Speaker of the U.S. House Nancy Pelosi not only refused to step forward and approve the vital Colombia free-trade agreement, but she prevented anyone else voting on it.
After President Bush submitted the pact to a vote under fast-track rules, she changed them to ensure it wouldn’t go anywhere anytime soon. By a 224 to 195 House vote, the voting timeline rule on trade pacts was changed from 90 days to whenever. Pelosi now can hold up Colombia’s treaty however long her caprice dictates.
“The message Democrats sent today,” Bush warned after Thursday’s vote, “is that no matter how steadfastly you stand with us, we will turn our backs on you when it is politically convenient.” President Bush was right.
In spite of tremendous pressure and intimidation from Chávez, Correa, FARC and all other anti-U.S. forces, Colombia’s president Álvaro Uribe has remained a steadfast friend of the U.S. And he has been able to provide more security and prosperity to Colombians than any other president in recent history.
Democrats Freeze the Colombian FTA with the “Chavez Rule,” was the headline at Noticias 24 following Pelosi’s historic move to block free trade with Colombia. (See Latin American Media Paints Pelosi As a Chavez Lackey.)
Within hours of the vote, Latin American media already were calling Pelosi’s maneuver the “Chavez Rule.”
Latin Americans could not understand how Pelosi could choose to harm America’s best ally in Latin America, punishing a vibrant democracy by isolating it from all the other nations that have sought and won free trade.
Unlike military aid, the free trade agreement costs the U.S. nothing, is too small to have much impact on the U.S. economy and is mainly about ending tariffs on U.S. goods sold in Colombia, matching the no-tariff trade that Colombian firms already get here. Chavez’s propaganda machine manipulated Pelosi and Congress.
In July 2008, Pelosi illicitly stepped outside her role as Speaker and attempted to institute her own foreign policy by communicating with left-wing Colombian Piedad Córdoba, telling her that she and Representative Jim McGovern (D-MA) were ready to help them arrange swaps of captured terrorists for hostages held by FARC terrorists. (Foreign policy is the exclusive role of the president and not the legislative branch.)
Piedad Córdoba, a close friend of Chavez, is a frequent visitor to the Venezuelan presidential palace. Córdoba is also trusted by the FARC and is often photographed with its leaders. She is an enemy of Uribe. Why was Pelosi working with an enemy of Uribe, a U.S. friend?
Informed Latin Americans wonder why Democratic Party leaders of the U.S. Congress are supporting the anti-U.S. Chavez-Morales-Correa bloc and are hurting U.S. friend Uribe. (Read USA Democratic Party Called Now to Declare Allegiances to Liberty or Andean Narco-communism.)
Manipulated by Chavez, Islamic terrorists and other enemies of the U.S., Americans may select the wrong candidate and destroy their future and the future of their children. It happened to Venezuelans, Bolivians and Ecuadorians who believed in CHANGE and YES WE CAN.
Freedom loving Venezuelans, Bolivians and Ecuadorians are hoping that a free and democratic U.S. will help them free themselves from Chavez, Russia and Iran. Those hopes may vanish if Obama is elected.
Wake up, Americans! It’s not too late yet. Save your country and save the world!
No.
No.
The ironic thing - the Marxist is spending the big money this election
We’ve survived a lot over the last 230 years. We’ll survive this, and come out stronger when the pendulum swings back to the right.
No. This will be America’s last FREE election.
no.
Every freedom loving person in this world should be praying and/or giving (Obambi’s foreign supporters give) to see that Marxobama is not elected.
Sure, but it will be called “The United Socialist States of Amerika” and not resemble anything like the founders had intended.
But other than that ....
Obama’s Acorn: A Leftist Social Reform Group. Part II
http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/07/16/obama%E2%80%99s-acorn-a-leftist-social-reform-group-part-ii/
ACORN is America’s SHARI’A.
It’s not Marxism he’s bringing. It’s totalitarianism/fascism, a la shari’a.
Furthermore, this is like the Wahhabis or Ba’athists reaching out to the heart of the country, placing their guy in our White House, since we got rid of Hussein & Bin Laden/Taliban. In Luo, Odinga’s party calls itself the Taliban, remember. 0bomber’s Odinga’s 1st cousin.
No, we can barely survive a democratic administration.
Obama will be the last president that the United States of America elects. You can interpret that comment any way you want to....red
Not too sure about that, but we cannot survive an islamofacist communist president.
Obama is going to be Jimmy Carter’s second term. He was an agent of change, too.
I’m afraid too many Americans don’t realize that Marxism is totalitarian/facism. It is very dangerous fate from which a country never truly recovers. The worst aspect of Marxism isn’t the economic poverty created. It is the social poverty created. The resentment, class warfare, hatred, and bitterness instilled in people can destroy any civil society.
That depends on how survive is defined.
Jury's out on that one! depending on results Nov 4, history may show that America's last FREE election may have been 2004. And then only under the leadership and tutelage of Swift Vets and POWs for Truth! It WOULD be a shame for history to show that the last marxist was defeated in 2004. But it would explain the financial (and other) markets for the last year!

She did the same with Bajar Assad in Syria. Can’t ppl see that the Dems are way to cozy with the enemies of the U.S.?
When Barry has the endorsement of Chavez and Ahmadinejad, one would thing that would be very revealing to most anyone......
This embracing of rogue dictators along with the desire to disarm the USA is just terrifying.
They are really upset that Obama could be elected and ruin this great country.
A friend I know who lived in the Netherlands for 7 years is really worried as well. You can receive unemployment benefits for up to 3 years and there is little chance to start your own business or work hard to make more money.
Only the elite become more wealthy under Obama
I like the optimism but i don’t think our society would ever be the same.
One important point to be made here....Obama’s not going to win this election!
