“Obama grew to perceive the rich as an oppressive class, a kind of neocolonial power within America. In his worldview, profits are a measure of how effectively you have ripped off the rest of society, and America’s power in the world is a measure of how selfishly it consumes the globe’s resources and how ruthlessly it bullies and dominates the rest of the planet.”
Simple: 0bama is a Muslim Marxist—
Rauf, supported by the US, D. of State, 0bama, the media et al, is dictating the terms of Zakat, one of the 5 pillars of Islam:

The honor of Islam lies in insulting the unbelief and the unbelievers (kafirs). One who respects kafirs dishonors Muslims... The real purpose of levying the Jizya on them is to humiliate them... [and] they remain terrified and trembling. Islamic Jihad

There are two forms of charity in Islam - obligatory and voluntary, called Zakah and Sadaqah respectively.

KNOW THY ENEMY. He has studied you well.
Why don’t Republicans run campaign ads with Clinton claiming “the era of big government is over”......and his claims about budget deficits?
Clinton was a great liar.......if he really was a “new Democrat”-—would he defend Obama or campaign for Gray Davis or liberal Democrats????
How Obama Thinks [Obama Exposed!]
There is further insight concerning the influence of his Indonesian experience on his thinking here:
Passed this article to everyone on my email list a couple of days ago. A ghost is running the White House!
Dreams of my Father?.....”There is no tax rate too high, and even a 100% rate is justified under certain circumstances.”.....
Keep your Fathers dreams, Obama!
“How Obama Thinks” ??
Not sure I accept the premise.
I’ve been reading leftist tracts about how the poor countries of the world are poor only because nasty capitalist countries like the U.S. have oppressed them. You can still hear the proponents of that cockeyed theory on places like DU. The simple fact is the only way for poor countries to get out of poverty is to adopt free market economics. Obviously Obama hasn’t grasped that.
Only to take its last dying gasp.
The Fraud-in-Chief has energized conservatives like never before. His policies are so profoundly leftist that he succeeded in mobilizing the non-political everyday folks who never before realized how tenuous and delicate our freedoms are. It has opened our eyes to the arrogant power of the ruling political class.

“...This philandering, inebriated African socialist, who raged against the world for denying him the realization of his anticolonial ambitions, is now setting the nation’s agenda through the reincarnation of his dreams in his son.”
Good article. I guess what the American Revolution was to the 13 colonies overthrowing the injustice of Englands mercantile imperialism is what Sr. Obama wanted to accomplish for Africa. And now his son, who is an America, wants an American Revolution against America, of which he is the president. The irony is too great. America unknowingly elects its own revolutionary president a George Washington against America.
I have some problems with the article: 1) I think DSouzza gives too much credibility or places too much emphasis on Obamas book. Obamas book was supposedly written by Bill Ayers and who knows what types of distortions and liberties were taken by that writer. Obama is a remarkable liar and that book may also prove to be part of Obamas long and spectacular history of lies. I dont believe being candid and forthright is a part of Obamas nature.
2) Obama didnt get into the White House in a vacuum and that means he was used and continues to be used by special interests. Part of politics is the art of compromise and sometimes the hardest thing to retain is your original objectives. What are Obamas objectives: mostly getting elected. He has no history of accomplishments aside from that. Nothing in the senate. Therefore, I wonder if it truly is a narcissistic feature of his personality that drives him and the rest is just fodder — to be used in however which way. Fox News has so little to do with colonialism but that is what sparks him. Anti-colonialism policies may be part of what he studied in schooled and what his advisers and have set up but Fox News and talked to like a dog are his hot buttons. Obama was groomed for winning elections. He was treated as a prize racehorse in a stable whose object is winning races and getting decorated with nice things. What follows after winning may not be what is closest or deepest to him.
I think it is always tempting to try to see whats behind the facade, behind the image of the man and see what really motivates a person. Human are complex creatures and there is a lot going on. How much of what we see is manufactured or a blank screen to cast or project our own images on? If anybody understands Obama, hopefully it is Obama.
he thinks like somebody who has been sitting around a university letting his brain go to mush for twenty-five years
Why do people continue to focus blame on President Obama? He’s only part of the problem. Shouldn’t the US Congress share some of the blame? It’s like missing the forest for the trees. Yeah, Obama is a bad president, but let’s not forget his socialist/Marxist enablers in congress.
“Barack Obama is the most antibusiness president in a generation, perhaps in American history.’
An excellent assessment!
Those two words explain Obama to a tee.
Obama became who he is...and has gone where he has, solely because of BIPARTISAN collusion to bring more power to DC.
Obama...and ObamaCare are the best things to hit DC since the New Deal. The Rinocratic Party, and their K St enablers, now have their tools and toys for the next 30 years. When its time for ‘Bammy to exit stage left..they will make him do so..and that will ONLY happen when the toys are threatened. Then he will get his own memorial on the National Mall.
