AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA : Dear President Obama,

You are the 13th 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 your 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", rather than 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'Reillys 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 probably will not feel safe in writing a similar letter in eight years.

Received in an email, said it was checked by snopes, however I did not verify. Thought it was worthy of posting anyway.

Written by Mr. Lou Pritchett, formerly of Proctor and Gamble.

Lou Pritchett is one of Corporate America's true living legends, a highly respected, acclaimed author, dynamic teacher and one of the world's highest rated speakers.

Successful corporate executives everywhere recognize him as the foremost leader in "Change Management". Lou changed the way America does business by creating an audacious concept that came to be known as "Partnering." Pritchett rose from soap salesman to Vice-President - Sales and Customer Development, for Procter and Gamble and over the course of 36 years, made corporate history.

And, he's scared. In closing: This letter was sent to the NY Times but they never acknowledged it. Big surprise?? No. All that is necessary for evil to succeed, is for good men to do n-o-t-h-i-n-g.

[I still care]

Whether it is what it claims to be or not, it absolutely nails what frightens me about Obama.

[antceecee]

Snopes confirms this letter is true.

Funny, I figured they would lie about it or not show any comment on it at all... Snopes is pretty much leftist.

Mr. Pritchett said, in summing it up, "The emperor has no clothes."

Thank you, Mr. Pritchett.

To: John Hinckley
From: Mrs. Nancy Reagan

My family and I wanted to drop you a short note to tell you how pleased we are with the great strides you are making in your recovery.

In our country's spirit of understanding and forgiveness, we want you to know that we bear no grudge against you for shooting President Reagan.

We are fully aware that mental stress and pain could have driven you to such an act of desperation. We're confident that you will soon make a complete recovery and return to your family to join the world again as a healthy and productive man.

Best wishes,
Nancy Reagan & Family

P.S. While you have been incarcerated, Barack Obama has been banging Jodie Foster like a screen door in a tornado. You might want to look into that.

[c21sac]

I would like to thank that this is true. We need as many credible people speaking out in these strange times.

One can hope.

[cricket]

recv'd as well. Am guessing it is true; albeit in may be an 'open' letter; rather than special delivery. Don't know but a good one to stick on windsheild of any car with Obama sticker. That and a few more.

It’s Procter & Gamble, not Proctor & Gamble. If you don’t believe me, look it up. Lots of people and publications used to make this mistake, and still do.

Proofreading used to be a noble trade, back when it was not considered chic and cool to be able to boast that one could not spell correctly to save one’s life. Another gift from the teacher’s union, liberalism, and the federal government, to the American people.

It has been verified:

Mr. Pritchett confirmed to us that he was indeed the author of the much-circulated "open letter" quoted above: I did write the 'you scare me' letter. 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.

Farewell America–We’ll really miss you!

Farewell to the America we have loved for two centuries and hello to a new far-left driven president who promised change and will most likely deliver on it,

Farewell, to an America driven by individuals with strong work ethics to one which will resemble French, German, and British societies where big government, big welfare, union controlled labor, four day work weeks, ten week vacations are the rule. Societies which constantly ask “—where’s mine?”

Farewell to capitalism, job creation, lower taxes, smaller government, fewer entitlements, safer cities, personal responsibility and sound work ethics.

Farewell to adequate military defense spending to protect us from our enemies who wish and plan to kill us.

Farewell to close ties with our best and only friend in the middle east—Israel.

Farewell to maintaining a conservative Supreme Court.

Farewell to any chance of keeping Health Care out of the hands and control of government.

Farewell to the famous American standard of living–a magnet to the world.

Farewell to conservative ‘talk radio’ as an antidote to the biased media. The Fairness Doctrine will return.

Farewell to any hope for educating our college kids in something other than liberal mush.

Today is truly a sad day for millions of Americans as they slowly allow the election results to sink in. Today, for the first time in modern history, America took a giant step toward changing not only the direction, but the entire character of the country from free enterprise driven to big government driven.

Our only hope is to start now planning and building a strong conservative base which can reclaim the Presidency and Congress in four years and start repairing the damage. God help us if we fail. Lou Pritchett

Oh man, that’s hilarious. Thanks.

I had done business in the past with P&G. Good company to work with. They can be a demanding client, however they make their expectations clear - I never had problems with “fuzzy project scopes.” No doubt the result of clear direction from the top, which sets the culture further down.

[Touch Not the Cat]

.
P&G is a DOW 30 component.

I'm surprised the New York Times didn't publish this.

Well, maybe not too very surprised.

[353FMG]

Do you know where that open letter to 0 ended up?

You’re right — you don’t want to know.

[b4its2late]

NYT - Covering O’s ass all the way.

My uncle was the head bean counter under this guy.

P&G contributes to both parties only because they have to. They lean big time right.
