He was raised by old-school hardline Communist parents, his early mentor was a long-time CPUSA operative (Frank Marshall Davis), and his political mentors were Bill Ayres and Bernadine Dohrn (members of the Weathermen, who advocated violent overthrow of the United States). The darkest day in any Leftists' lifes was when their hero-nation the USSR finally fell. Like Adolf Hitler getting payback for Versailles, Obama's getting payback for the Fall of European Communism.
If he actually had an original thought in his brain he’d recognize that communism does not work. Only a stupid person would think he’s always the smartest man in the room and refuse to listen to opposing views. Only a stupid person would not realize that available data points to a different conclusion than his preconceived notions.
I have to guess that taking us down the path he was carefully taught is his way to prove his relevance to himself. I remember Sarah saying at her incredible convention speech “the presidency of the United States is not a voyage of personal discovery”. She already knew what a disaster this pathetic, disturbed person is. Too bad her running mate didn’t know.
