AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA
By Lou Pritchett
Dear President Obama:
You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.
You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.
You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.
You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.
You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.
You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don't understand it at its core.
You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.
You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.
You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America' crowd and deliver this message abroad.
You scare me because you want to change America to a European style country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.
You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one.
You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.
You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world.
You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics against certain banks and corporations.
You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.
You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people.
You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both omnipotent and omniscient.
You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do.
You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O'Relllys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view.
You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.
Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

I sent it to the NY Times but they never acknowledged or published it. However, it hit the internet and according to the ‘experts’ has had over 500,000 hits. http://www.afa.net/youscareme.asp

Well......, I think it’s a little late to be scared now.
I’d be scared to write this NOW. We won’t make it another year , let alone 8 years from now. This is a Demon bastard.
that guy is not a current vp at p +g.
Only a hero or lunatic would write that letter. I don’t think he is a lunatic.
Thanks for sharing.
Great letter!
Awesome letter!!! I am going to copy it and distribute it when I’m out and about.
Thank you for posting it!
This guy has not been a VP at P & G for 20 years. If a current VP wrote the letter he would be out on his ass the next day...
Change the word ‘scared’ to ‘repulse’.
I would grow a Josh Bolton mustache if I were this guy.
Will the revolution be televised?
I use Firefox. Can anyone tell me how to quickly and easily transfer all the addresses in my address book to bcc fields in an email.
Thank you in advance if you can advise.
Will the revolution be televised?
_____________________________
I hear you. It will be televised as long as the camera lenses last.
I was frightened of what Obama would do as President before he was elected - now I’m absolutely petrified - and keeping my powder dry for the coming war within this country.
More people read it on the internet than would have ever read it in the NYTs!
We should all be wary of speaking our minds now.
You are welcome Beth:-)
