Barack Obama: Liar and Demagogue.....
This statement is based upon the president's words and deeds. The deception began during the presidential campaign. The masses sway to soothing rhetoric and a deliberately fraudulent campaign to promote moderate positions on the economy and government, many citizens in 2008 voted for Senator Obama. Because, they hoped that by electing a man of African descent, the long national nightmare of slavery and the long civil rights struggle would at last be relegated to the pages of history. Capitalizing on this hope, Mr. Obama campaigned on the theme that as a political moderate, he would bring all Americans together and end the divisive politics of the past, as well as control the scope and size of government.
In the two years since elected, the president, his underlings and Congress have repeatedly invoked the checkered past of this country in regard to civil rights and never missed an opportunity to remind the people of Mr. Obama skin color. This was done to capitalize on so-called white guilt, thus keeping alive the tensions in the black community and muzzling dissent.
Exploiting race or racial incidents, such as Professor Gates, Black Panthers or the references to slavery in recent speeches by the president, to sow dissent among the populace. Also, Mr. Obama, with forethought, sought to exploit the issue of illegal immigration by making it a matter of race and not law. Given numerous opportunities to denounce racial demagoguery by his supporters or the media, the president has chosen to remain silent, thus giving his tacit approval to the onslaught of racial divisiveness and manipulation.
President Obama has exploited one of the oldest of man's failings: envy towards those perceived to have more. The "fat cats" in corporate America and the millionaires can solve the average citizen's problems by taking away their money (they supposedly achieved their wealth on the backs of the poor), this is an age-old tactic geared to distract the populace by inciting anger against their fellow citizens.
The lies and misrepresentations by Barack Obama and his administration are legion. But none are as egregious as those made in order to pass the Health Care Reform Act. Among the lies were assurances that premiums would not rise, Medicare would not be cut, everyone would be able to keep his or her current doctor and insurance, abortion would not be funded, and national medical costs would be reduced. All were total fabrications used to pass the most insidious attack on personal freedom in the history of the country.
No president of the United States should made his primary foreign policy by going about the world apologizing and denigrating his nation, thus mocking the enormous sacrifices generations of Americans have made to save countless millions of people over the past century.
By his rhetoric and strategy, Mr. Obama has sunk to the same level as numerous demagogues over the past 150 years who employed these same tactics as a means of achieving personal and centralized power.
The media, politicians, and general citizenry must not be intimidated by Mr. Obama's skin color or the pall of "political correctness." They must face the reality of who the president is and his radical objectives. Too much hangs in the balance not to speak out forcefully and without apprehension, even after the midterm election, regardless of the outcome, and not to trust or believe whatever the president may do or say in the future. After all, he has squandered all credibility by his actions to date.
