BARACK OBAMA HAS AWAKENED A SLEEPING GIANT

Barack Obama has awakened a sleeping nation by
GARY HUBBELL ASPEN TIMES WEEKLY

Barack Obama is the best thing that has happened to America in the last 100 years.  Truly, he is the savior of America's future.  He is the best thing ever.
Despite the fact that he has some of the lowest approval ratings among recent presidents, history will see Barack Obama as the source of America's resurrection.  Barack Obama has plunged the country into levels of debt that we could not have previously imagined; his efforts to nationalize health care have been met with fierce resistance nationwide; TARP bailouts and stimulus spending have shown little positive effect on the national economy; unemployment is unacceptably high and looks to remain that way for most of a decade; legacy entitlement programs have ballooned to unsustainable levels, and there is a seething anger in the populace.
That's why Barack Obama is such a good thing for America.
Obama is the symbol of a creeping liberalism that has infected our society like a cancer for the last 100 years.  Just as Hitler is the face of fascism, Obama will go down in history as the face of unchecked liberalism.  The cancer metastasized to the point where it could no longer be ignored.
Average Americans who have quietly gone about their lives, earning a paycheck, contributing to their favorite charities, going to high school football games on Friday night, spending their weekends at the beach or on hunting trips - they've gotten off the fence.  They've woken up. There is a level of political activism in this country that we haven't seen since the American Revolution, and Barack Obama has been the catalyst that has sparked a restructuring of the American political and social consciousness.
Think of the crap we've slowly learned to tolerate over the past 50 years as liberalism sought to re-structure the America that was the symbol of freedom and liberty to all the people of the world.  Immigration laws were ignored on the basis of compassion.  Welfare policies encouraged irresponsibility, the fracturing of families, and a cycle of generations of dependency. Debt was regarded as a tonic to lubricate the economy.  Our children left school having been taught that they are exceptional and special, while great numbers of them cannot perform basic functions of mathematics and literacy.  Legislators decided that people could not be trusted to defend their own homes, and stripped citizens of their rights to own firearms.  Productive members of society have been penalized with a heavy burden of taxes in order to support legions of do-nothings who loll around, reveling in their addictions, obesity, indolence, ignorance and "disabilities."  Criminals have been arrested and re-arrested, coddled and set free to pillage the citizenry yet again.  Lawyers routinely extort fortunes from doctors, contractors and business people with dubious torts.
We slowly learned to tolerate these outrages, shaking our heads in disbelief, and we went on with our lives.
But Barack Obama has ripped the lid off a seething cauldron of dissatisfaction and unrest.
In the time of Barack Obama, Black Panther members stand outside polling places in black commando uniforms, slapping truncheons into their palms. ACORN - a taxpayer-supported organization - is given a role in taking the census, even after its members were caught on tape offering advice to set up child prostitution rings.  A former Communist is given a paid government position in the White House as an advisor to the president.   Auto companies are taken over by the government, and the auto workers' union - whose contracts are completely insupportable in any economic sense - is rewarded with a stake in the company.  Government bails out Wall Street investment bankers and insurance companies, who pay their executives outrageous bonuses as thanks for the public support.  Terrorists are read their Miranda rights and given free lawyers.  And, despite overwhelming public disapproval, Barack Obama has pushed forward with a health care plan that would re-structure one-sixth of the American economy.
I don't know about you, but the other day I was at the courthouse doing some business, and I stepped into the court clerk's office and changed my voter affiliation from "Independent" to "Republican."  I am under no illusion that the Republican party is perfect, but at least they're starting to awaken to the fact that we cannot sustain massive levels of debt; we cannot afford to hand out billions of dollars in corporate subsidies; we have to somehow trim our massive entitlement programs; we can no longer be the world's policeman and dole out billions in aid to countries whose citizens seek to harm us.
Literally millions of Americans have had enough. They're organizing, they're studying the Constitution and the Federalist Papers, they're reading history and case law, they're showing up at rallies and meetings, and a slew of conservative candidates are throwing their hats into the ring.  Is there a revolution brewing? Yes, in the sense that there is a keen awareness that our priorities and sensibilities must be radically re-structured.  Will it be a violent revolution?  No.  It will be done through the interpretation of the original document that has guided us for 220 years - the Constitution.  Just as the pendulum swung to embrace political correctness and liberalism, there will be a backlash, a complete repudiation of a hundred years of nonsense.  A hundred years from now, history will perceive the year 2010 as the time when America got back on the right track.  And for that, we can thank Barack Hussein Obama.

WALL STREET JOURNAL SIZES UP OBAMA

Wall Street Journal Sizes up Obama - They've Got Him Figured Out

A "deadly" article regarding Obama, at the Wall Street Journal, which today is the most widely circulated newspaper in America .. 
Article from the Wall Street Journal  -  by Eddie Sessions: 
"I have this theory about Barack Obama. I think he's led a kind of make-believe life in which money was provided and doors were opened because at some point early on somebody or some group took a look at this tall, good looking, half-white, half-black, young man with an exotic African/Muslim name and concluded he could be guided toward a life in politics where his facile speaking skills could even put him in the White House.  
In a very real way, he has been a young man in a very big hurry. Who else do you know has written two memoirs before the age of 45? "Dreams of My Father" was published in 1995 when he was only 34 years old. The "Audacity of Hope" followed in 2006. If, indeed, he did write them himself. There are some who think that his mentor and friend, Bill Ayers, a man who calls himself a "communist with a small 'c'" was the real author.  
His political skills consisted of rarely voting on anything that might be deemed controversial. He went from a legislator in the Illinois legislature to the Senator from that state because he had the good fortune of having Mayor Daley's formidable political machine at his disposal.  
He was in the U.S. Senate so briefly that his bid for the presidency was either an act of astonishing self-confidence or part of some greater game plan that had been determined before he first stepped foot in the Capital. How, many must wonder, was he selected to be a 2004 keynote speaker at the Democrat convention that nominated John Kerry when virtually no one had ever even heard of him before?  
He outmaneuvered Hillary Clinton in primaries. He took Iowa by storm. A charming young man, an anomaly in the state with a very small black population, he oozed "cool" in a place where agriculture was the antithesis of cool. He dazzled the locals. And he had an army of volunteers drawn to a charisma that hid any real substance.  
And then he had the great good fortune of having the Republicans select one of the most inept candidates for the presidency since Bob Dole. And then John McCain did something crazy. He picked Sarah Palin, an unknown female governor from the very distant state of Alaska . It was a ticket that was reminiscent of 1984's Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro and they went down to defeat.

The mainstream political media fell in love with him. It was a schoolgirl crush with febrile commentators like Chris Mathews swooning then and now over the man. The venom directed against McCain and, in particular, Palin, was extraordinary.  

Now, nearly a full year into his first term, all of those gilded years leading up to the White House have left him unprepared to be President. Left to his own instincts, he has a talent for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. It swiftly became a joke that he could not deliver even the briefest of statements without the ever-present Tele-Prompters.  
Far worse, however, is his capacity to want to "wish away" some terrible realities, not the least of which is the Islamist intention to destroy America and enslave the West. Any student of history knows how swiftly Islam initially spread. It knocked on the doors of Europe, having gained a foothold in Spain . 
The great crowds that greeted him at home or on his campaign "world tour" were no substitute for having even the slightest grasp of history and the reality of a world filled with really bad people with really bad intentions. 
Oddly and perhaps even inevitably, his political experience, a cakewalk, has positioned him to destroy the Democrat Party's hold on power in Congress because in the end it was never about the Party. It was always about his communist ideology, learned at an early age from family, mentors, college professors, and extreme leftist friends and colleagues.
Obama is a man who could deliver a snap judgment about a Boston police officer who arrested an "obstreperous" Harvard professor-friend, but would warn Americans against "jumping to conclusions" about a mass murderer at Fort Hood who shouted "Allahu Akbar." The absurdity of that was lost on no one. He has since compounded this by calling the Christmas bomber "an isolated extremist" only to have to admit a day or two later that he was part of an al Qaeda plot.  

He is a man who could strive to close down our detention facility at Guantanamo even though those released were known to have returned to the battlefield against America . He could even instruct his Attorney General to afford the perpetrator of 9/11 a civil trial when no one else would ever even consider such an obscenity. And he is a man who could wait three days before having anything to say about the perpetrator of yet another terrorist attack on Americans and then have to elaborate on his remarks the following day because his first statement was so lame.  
The pattern repeats itself. He either blames any problem on the Bush administration or he naively seeks to wish away the truth.  
Knock, knock. Anyone home? Anyone there? Barack Obama exists only as the sock puppet of his handlers, of the people who have maneuvered and manufactured this pathetic individual's life.  
When anyone else would quickly and easily produce a birth certificate, this man has spent over a million dollars to deny access to his. Most other documents, the paper trail we all leave in our wake, have been sequestered from review. He has lived a make-believe life whose true facts remain hidden.  
We laugh at the ventriloquist's dummy, but what do you do when the dummy is President of the United States of America ?"

Message From Grand Isle, Louisiana 

I witnessed something yesterday I wanted to share with my friends. It was disappointing, to say the least, but not at all surprising.  I was in Grand Isle yesterday when we were visited by our president. Our street has about a dozen camps, one permanent resident on it; and yesterday we had a fair crowd of people. The first incident that was brought to my attention was four bus loads of, I guess you could call them workers, was spotted at the Bridge Side marina and looked as if they had come from New Orleans . For you who do not know, Bridge Side is the first marina coming onto Grand Isle and this is where the buses stopped and the WORKERS got off. I later witnessed not four but five buses pass our street on Hwy 1 going to the end of the island where our president was to visit. I made a statement to my neighbors that they  were probably going to stage a scenario where a large amount of people  were working on our oil spill problem and guess what, I was right. Liz and I witnessed this on one of the specials when I got home and a large number of men had rakes and were dressed in white hazardous suits working on the beach. But where did they go; No one had seen these guys before yesterday and no one can find them now. I was told WWL is getting question after question about this today, go figure our leader not being truthful and staging something like this.

The next thing I really found unusual was that no one cared if he was on the island. I later saw 38 cops on motorcycles, yes I did count them, and many other police vehicles escort what I am sure was the president in his motorcade of black Suburban's. I was told he landed in Fouchon, about 10 miles from Grand Isle, then was brought to Grand Isle in the motorcade. I did see his helicopter and the escorts fly north of us to meet him at the Coast Guard facility were he spoke. My point is when he went down Hwy 1, not one person made an attempt to see him. There wasn't  any one taking pictures, no one even looking in his direction, no one  lining the streets and waving flags, no one cared. I really think if it had been any of our prior presidents, even Clinton, an attempt would have been made to be along the side of the road and cheer or wave. It is really sad that this country is being run by a man that no one likes or has any respect for. God help us get through the change.

America – What We Are and May Become

Here is the video that your excerpt came from, "Overview of America" by the John Birch Society, narrated by its president John McManus.  I had the honor of meeting him last year when he came to San Diego as part of a lecture tour.  Your excerpt comes about 8 minutes into the 29 min. video.  See the link below.  The full video explains the difference between a democracy and a republic, an important difference, and why we are supposed to be a republic, the better choice.
I am not now, nor have I ever been a member of this organization, but they have done a tremendous amount of good in the last 50 years.  That is why the elite have been trying to bring JBS down like they tried to do to Ron Paul.

Subject: FW: A Map Of My Country

My great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Civil War, my father watched as his friends died in WW II, and I watched as my friends died in Vietnam.  None of them died for the Mexican Flag.  Everyone died for the U.S. flag.

   Just this week, here  in Texas, a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down.  Guess who was expelled...the kid who took it down.

   Kids in high school in California were sent home this week on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.  Enough is enough.

  The below e-mail message needs to be viewed by every American; and every American needs to stand up for America.  We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough.  I'm taking a stand.  I'm standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the U.S. flag can't stand up.  If you agree, stand up with me. 

If you disagree, please let me know.  I will gladly remove you from my e-mail list.

   And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message.

Obama’s Plan to Destroy America As We Know It

In case you haven't figured out what's happening, here's a wrap-up of the program:

WAYNE ALLYN ROOT: Overwhelm the system
WAYNE ALLYN ROOT


Barrack Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure, economic crisis and social chaos -- thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.
Barack Obama is my college classmate ( Columbia University , class of '83). As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University . They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands. Add up the clues below. Taken individually they're alarming. Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government for survival ... and can be counted on to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.
-- Universal health care. The health care bill had very little to do with health care. Â It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government. Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?
-- Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kickback hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses helps Obama "spread the wealth around."
-- Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who's asking for a 51st state? Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression?  Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Obama's plan all along. His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.
-- Legalize 12 million illegal immigrants. Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America . But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually Social Security.
-- Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go? It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions -- including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America . The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful. The ends justify the means.
-- Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama). Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition.
With the acts outlined above, Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.
Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme -- all devised by my Columbia University college classmate Barack Obama using the Cloward and Piven Plan.

A Letter To The President – You Scare Me

Who would have thought, and yet many are thinking it. 

By Lou Pritchett,   Procter & Gamble
A LETTER FROM A PROCTER  AND GAMBLE EXECUTIVE TO
THE PRESIDENT*
THE LAST SENTENCE IS THE  MOST CHILLING

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.

AN OPEN LETTER TO
PRESIDENT OBAMA

Dear President Obama:
You are the thirteenth 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 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' to  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
Limbaugh's, 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 will
probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.
Lou Pritchett

This letter was sent to the NY Times but they never  acknowledged it.
Big  surprise. Since it hit the internet, however, it  has had over
500,000 hits. Keep it going. All that is necessary for evil to succeed
is that good men do nothing.. It's happening right  now.*

THIS IS OUR PRESIDENT?

THIS IS OUR PRESIDENT ˆ
Is anyone out there awake?
Everyone of voting age should read these two books: Don't buy them, just get them from the library.

From  Dreams of My Father:  "I  ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by  doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites."
From Dreams of My Father:  "I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race."

From Dreams of My Father:  "There was something about her that made me wary, a little too sure of herself, maybe and white."
From  Dreams of My  Father:  "It  remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names."

From Dreams of My Father:  "I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself: the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela."
And  FINALLY  .........
and most scary:

From Audacity of Hope:
"I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."
If you have never forwarded an e-mail, now is the time to do so!!!
We CANNOT have someone with this mentality running our GREAT nation!!
I don't care whether you are a Democrat, a Republican, a Conservative or a liberal,      

We CANNOT turn ourselves over to this type of character in a President.    

PLEASE help spread the word!

We have really put ourselves in harm's way with this monster in disguise.

American Political Correctness Gone To Far

Here is a speech by a guy who can call a Spade a Spade.

Yes, it is interesting that this Limey has it so well figured out, but our leadership seems to be more concerned with Political Correctness than anything else.

Immigration problem addressed in Missouri

Subject: Illegal Immigration in Missouri

http://ozarkssentinel.com/clients/ozarkssentinel/missouri-ahead-of-the-game-in-dealing-with-illegal-immigrants-p1034.htm?twindow=Default&smenu=145&mad=No

Here is a good footprint to follow . . .

In 2007, Missouri placed on the ballot a proposed constitutional

amendment designating English as the Official language of

Missouri. Nearly 90% voting in favor! English became the

official language for ALL governmental proceeding in Missouri.

It also means no individual has the right to demand government

services in a language OTHER than English.

In 2008 a measure was passed that requires our Highway Patrol

and other law enforcement officials to verify the immigration

status of any person arrested, and inform federal authorities if

the person is found to be here illegally. It allows Missouri

law enforcement offices to receive training to enforce federal

immigration laws. The bill makes it clear that illegal

immigrants will NOT have access to taxpayers benefits such as

food stamps and health care through Missouri HealthNET.

In 2009 a measure was passed that ensures Missouri's public

institutions of higher education do NOT award financial aid to

individuals who are here illegally. The law also requires all

post-secondary institutions of higher education to annually

certify to the Missouri Dept. of Higher Education that they have

NOT knowingly awarded financial aid to students who are

unlawfully present in the United States.

So while Arizona has made national news for its new law, it is

important to remember Missouri has been proactive in addressing

this growing problem.

Missouri has sent a clear message that illegal immigrants are

NOT welcome in our state and they are certainly NOT welcome to

receive public benefits at the cost of Missouri taxpayers!
