Beyond our economic future, beyond the defense of the Republic, we might very well be confronted with the subversion of our precious constitutional liberties. We are all aware of the assault on free speech already committed by the Obama campaign including chilling announcements by prosecutors in Missouri, under orders from the Obama campaign, that they would prosecute anyone who falsified Obama's record. We know what Obamaniacs, only one step removed from the campaign itself, have done in trying to intimidate Chicago radio station. We know that the campaign has protested vehemently to a local television station in Florida because of a tough interview with Joe Biden. The Democrat party is already stated that it will attempt to reinstate the fairness doctrine which would take free speech off the airwaves, at the least free conservative speech -they will no doubt leave untouched the drip, drip of liberalism which we all are only too aware of on National Public Radio. The Democrats also intend to set up community "Soviets" Judge talk radio. The second amendment is also under threat despite Obama's protestations to the contrary. His record must make all who take the second amendment seriously very uneasy. There are intimations that the Obama administration will criminalize politics and undertake to prosecute members of the Bush administration for war crimes etc. This list is not meant to be exhaustive.
There is another sinister virus which might erupt from somewhere deep in the spinal cord of the Obama administration. Depending on how far left Obama really is, depending on how dedicated he is to the destruction of the United States as an effective nationstate and as a bulwark against pan nationalism represented by the United Nations, we might very well see the undermining of American sovereignty through a series of treaties which not only restrict domestic constitutional liberties but also severely curtail the sovereign independence of the nation. These will probably include treaties about global warming, international finance now that we are in the throes of an international financial crisis, arms control, and a world tax to fund the United Nations and to wage international wars on poverty. We might well see the explicit submission of American jurisprudence to international courts not limited to international crimes, human rights violations, but to all manner of justicible controversies. Again, this list is not meant to be exhaustive.
Finally, and perhaps most sinister of all, we may well be confronted with a cult of personality. We have already seen the first evidences of this with the singing children and the quasi military youngsters in the karate hall chanting for Obama. Obama has simply failed to repudiate any of this cult of personality. He has not been called the Messiah for nothing, such an appellation comes not from the man's modesty. Couple that with Obama's stated intention to have comprehensive national service and you have the levers with which a despot can begin to build a tyranny. Tell me again how Hugo Chavez got his start.
There is a hidden sinister face to the happy face of Barak Obama.
I don’t know why I’m suddenly reminded of the stories of Andrew Jackson’s inauguration celebrations, in which he allowed the public to come into the white house, get drunk, and trash the place. Or so I was taught in school.
It's not even that hidden. Think about this - pretty much every dictator in the world basically yells at their audience. Listen to Obama's speeches - listen at how he screams his points at the listeners. Compare that to a Ronald Reagan, who I can barely remember even raising his voice in a speech. The one time I can remember is the "tear down this wall" line and he was directing that at Gorbechev.
