The Sleeping Giant Awakens (Obama, radicals and racial violence)

One of my closest friends, "Gail," lives in a pristine suburb in northern New Jersey. It's one of those leafy bedroom communities where residents drive their Lexus SUVs to the railroad station each morning to catch the train to Manhattan.

After 9/11, Gail told me that eerily, several vehicles were left abandoned in the parking lot for weeks. Their drivers never returned home that day to retrieve them.

But, in general, not much goes on in her sleepy, idyllic town. The residents rave about shopping sprees to Loehmanns and sprints to Whole Foods for organic strawberries. There is no crime to speak of; the local paper blares news about a recent traffic accident or the opening of a Trader Joe's. So when Gail told me what happened to her son, I was absolutely dumbfounded.

As for Gail, like my former self, she's a staunch supporter of the Democratic Party.....

London Liberals Riot Against “Conservatives” and “Rich People”

I think it was just after this Rush went on a little rant about the left. And it relates here as to 0bama’s insidious orchestration of Hate.

Hate the banks
Hate the corporate jet owners
Hate the insurance company
Hate the white guy
Hate the car company
Hate the light bulb
Hate the Tea Party
Hate the ...
Hate, and he had a list that was quite long.

That’s the pigpen cloud around 0bama, that is how he is responsible for this stuff. 0bama exudes ‘hate.’

“By 2050 (if not sooner) whites are going to a minority in there own country.”

Technically many “hispnanics” are caucasian and many actually refer to themselves as white and or don’t see themselves as a “hyphenated” American. The term Hispanic seems to be used as a catch all for any Spanish speaking person, no matter what the shade of there skin. Even if you consider classical “white people”(english speaking white European extraction) as their own voting group, they will still be the largest voting bloc in the country at about 45 per cent by 2050 vs a static 15 percent by “blacks” and the other 40 per cent divided up by “hispanics”(what ever race that is), Orientals, and various groups from Asia. The population of the US will approach 450 million by that time so whites will still exert enormous voting power by themselves. The priorities of each of the other races don’t necessarily coincide with one another and in fact the whites may find themselves often joined with numbers of “Hispanics” and “orientals”.

Nice article....but....these dems will never vote for a repub or tea party candidate....they'll be fooled by some other leftist/socialist/neo-communist spouting centrist words....it will make them warm and fuzzy all over again...

President Obama was more honest with his beleifs...he wore them for everyone to see....next time....the left won't make the same mistake....and these two won't have a clue....because they don't have have open minds....they have been conditioned and will remain ignorantly bliss on the dem plantation...

I'm hearing "Take Me In, Tender Woman" (sighed the Snake). Tender woman in NJ voted Snake.

This author’s close friend would probably never hesitate to express hatred for any Conservative, Republican, or Tea Partier.

She probably looks with disdain upon anyone who disagrees with her and feels as superior as any commissar who thinks of herself as brilliant and superior to the rest of humanity.

Progressives/Leftists behave as if their more human than anyone but consider non-fellow-travellers to be scum, human debris and animals which should be treated with disdain.

(Bunch of psychotic, leftist punks.)

[Common Sense 101]

While I agree that the O-hole has not overtly stated his approval of these “flash robs”, it is important to note his participation by implying the “rich and companies are evil”, therefore suggesting they are undeserving of their wealth or material goods. This assertion, combined with the empty suit’s demand for “economic justice”, enable the welfare state parasites to justify their actions against these people and businesses. Think of it as nothing more than the culmination of 50 years of constant “entitlement indoctrination” by the DNC leftists.

[TNCMAXQ]

“He seemed so nice.” Says it all right there. That kind of naive thinking is pervasive and got us into this mess. Not enough people recognize their mistake yet anyway.

This story seems to be growing. Yahoo news actually had a headline about it. Not the hateful racism, but the increasing “mob” attacks by “young people.” The local TV news in Hartford showed a clip of Mayor Nutter’s comments. So there is some recognition that the problem is growing. The whitewash about race continues but if this gets to be out of control even the PC media might no longer be able to ignore the ugly facts.

He told his “private army” to “GET IN THEIR FACES”....he also told them to bring a GUN if “they” bring a knife!!!<P.He is a “community ROUSER”.

[Mouton]

Whether (.)bama is doing things by design or incompetence, of one thing I am certain: If he does not win re election, he will be the last black man voted to the Presidency over the next 50 years.

This guy has done more to destroy race relations in this country since Bull Connor. I would ensure being fully stocked with guns, ammo and food stuffs if it becomes apparent he will not get reelected late next year because at that point he will strike out and hurt his opposition.

[leprechaun9]

I believe that what is going on is the full exposure of the very essence of the Democrap Party!

The whole dialogue, since the last Presidential election, is all about CZAR B.O. (Dumbo with diversity). All the legislation that he signed into law was voted on by an overwhelming Democrap Congress (both Houses). CZAR B.O. did not cast one vote for any of it. He is merely the Negro spokesman who was put there to enable the Democraps to brand anyone who objected, as a RACIST.

The blame for these Socialist initiatives rests with the Democrap Party and everyone should be discussing their culpability and not solely focusing on CZAR B.O.!

[caver]

“After I finished, Gail was quiet for several seconds. Then she said, sounding heartbroken, “But he made so many promises. He seemed so nice.””

Gail is a brain dead stupid idiot liberal just like many other Americans.

Looks like the author is a Hillary supporter, or was until recently.

The same Hillary who defended the Black Panthers?

Her Presidential platform differed only slightly from Obama's. We'd be in this same mess with Madame Witch as prez...the author doesn't seem to get this.

[bgill]

The usurper once said, “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.” As if there weren’t wake up calls before this comment, “Gail” should have awoken to this.

[listenhillary]

Robin from Berkley offers an insightful transition from a leftist to a person that has seen the light. Or maybe a person that has seen the depth of darkness that is the left. She has more articles on American Thinker. I find most everything she writes to be fascinating.

If a person is helping to fight against the demise of Western Civilization, they are an ally in my eyes.

[bgill]

"God D*** America, U.S. to Blame for 9/11" --Rev Dr. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's pastor for twenty years

That should have been another of "Gail's" wake up calls. I have two aquaintances who were told countless times what he was but still voted for him. Today, they are regretting that choice. Too bad the rest of us are having to live with their poor choices. Sitting back, they are also the ones who make poor choices in their day to day lives.

[Siena Dreaming]

Is she still a Hillary supporter? Has she seen the light there?

I'm glad if she is evolving. However, I'd be hesitant to say someone like this could be trusted in the cause of helping to save Western civilization unless they have explicitly repented from Clinton-backing, especially as recently as 2 years ago.

Hillary and the Black Panthers: The Real Story
Richard Poe
Tuesday, Aug. 19, 2003

A series of hard-Left mentors introduced Hillary to the brass-knuckle realities of revolutionary activism. As a Wellesley undergraduate, she met and interviewed radical organizer Saul Alinsky, whose Machiavellian tactics she admired. Hillary's senior thesis supported Alinsky's call for class warfare. (4)

At Yale, Hillary found a new Svengali in the form of left-wing law professor Thomas Emerson, known around campus as "Tommy the Commie." Emerson recruited Hillary and other students to help monitor the trial of the New Haven Nine for civil rights violations. Hillary took charge of the operation, scheduling the students in shifts, so that student monitors would always be present in the courtroom. She befriended and worked closely with Panther lawyer Charles Garry. (5)

Some believe that the enormous pressure exerted by the Left helped ensure light sentences for the New Haven Nine. Whether or not this is true, the punishments were mild.

"Only one of the killers was still in prison in 1977," reports John McCaslin in the Washington Times. "The gunman, Warren Kimbro, got a Harvard scholarship and became an assistant dean at Eastern Connecticut State College. Ericka Huggins, who boiled the water for Mr. Rackley's torture, got elected to a California school board." (6)

Hillary's defenders argue that she played no "significant" role in the New Haven Nine's defense. This is semantic hairsplitting. Obviously, Hillary was less "significant" than Charles Garry or "Tommy the Commie" Emerson. But Hillary served as a trusted lieutenant to these movers and shakers. Moreover, she had a national profile as a campus activist. Hillary was no rank-and-file student protester, as her apologists claim.

Indeed, Hillary's work for the Panthers won her a summer internship at the Berkeley office of attorney Robert Treuhaft in 1972. A hardline Stalinist, Treuhaft had quit the Communist Party in 1958 only because it was losing members and no longer provided a good platform for his activism. (7) "Treuhaft is a man who dedicated his entire legal career to advancing the agenda of the Soviet Communist Party and the KGB," notes historian Stephen Schwartz. (8)

The defense of the New Haven Nine marked Hillary's initiation into the sinister underworld of the hard-core, revolutionary Left. To my knowledge, Hillary has never publicly renounced nor apologized for her role in that movement.

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

RE: Clinton-Obama 2008 presidential debate

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: And, Senator [OBAMA], if you get the nomination, you'll have to beat back these distractions.

And I want to give Senator Clinton a chance to respond, but first a follow-up on this issue, general theme of patriotism, in your relationships. A gentleman named William Ayers. He was part of the Weather Underground in the 1970s. They bombed the Pentagon, the Capitol, and other buildings. He's never apologized for that.

And, in fact, on 9/11, he was quoted in the New York Times saying, "I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough." An early organizing meeting for your State Senate campaign was held at his house and your campaign has said you are "friendly."

Can you explain that relationship for the voters and explain to Democrats why it won't be a problem?

OBAMA: George, but this is an example of what I'm talking about. This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood, who's a professor of English in Chicago who I know and who I have not received some official endorsement from. He's not somebody who I exchange ideas from on a regular basis.

And the notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was 8 years old, somehow reflects on me and my values doesn't make much sense, George.

The fact is that I'm also friendly with Tom Coburn, one of the most conservative Republicans in the United States Senate, who, during his campaign, once said that it might be appropriate to apply the death penalty to those who carried out abortions.

Do I need to apologize for Mr. Coburn's statements? Because I certainly don't agree with those, either.

So this kind of game in which anybody who I know, regardless of how flimsy the relationship is, that somehow their ideas could be attributed to me, I think the American people are smarter than that. They're not going to suggest somehow that that is reflective of my views, because it obviously isn't.

CLINTON: Well, I think that is a fair general statement, but I also believe that Senator Obama served on a board with Mr. Ayers for a period of time, the Woods Foundation, which was a paid directorship position.

And, if I'm not mistaken, that relationship with Mr. Ayers on this board continued after 9/11 and after his reported comments, which were deeply hurtful to people in New York and, I would hope, to every American, because they were published on 9/11, and he said that he was just sorry they hadn't done more.

And what they did was set bombs. And in some instances, people died. So it is -- I think it is, again, an issue that people will be asking about.

And I have no doubt -- I know Senator Obama's a good man and I respect him greatly, but I think that this is an issue that certainly the Republicans will be raising.
