Obamaland

To the Editor:

Barack Obama once said “I can make any audience I’m talking to believe everything I’m saying.” Apparently he has convinced 50 percent of the American public that he’s telling them the truth. But having researched his past associations, mentors, friends and influences over the years and having examined his statements, his true identity becomes shockingly clear. His warped ideology might convince some followers to “disbelieve.”

In a keynote speech for Jim Wallis a Chicago based pseudo religious, anti-American, Marxist, Obama condemned the “idolatry of the free market” and professed, “I believe in the power of the African-American religious tradition to spur social growth.” In 1979 Wallis was quoted as saying he hoped “more Christians will come to view the world through Marxist eyes.” Wallis has forged ties with black gang leaders and has on his staff, James Cone. Cone’s version of Christianity worships a white-hating black Jesus.

To an Iowa caucus pacifist group Obama spewed, “I will cut investments in missile defense systems and slow development of future combat systems.” “I will negotiate with Russia over our ICBM’s and achieve deep cuts in our nuclear arsenal.” In other words, Obama will see to it that America is vulnerable to all our enemies.

From Obama’s book [The] Audacity [of Hope], he calls our democratic system “Chaotic and unforgiving Capitalism.” How does he define Putin’s repressive society, squalor in Castor’s Cuba, the iron fist of China, the agony and misery that is Africa, the slum’s of Haiti, the starvation and deprivation of other third world countries and the deranged mentality that drives terrorism? In these system’s dissidents are jailed, tortured, killed, people are shot at random, beheaded, raped at will, routinely starved, massively massacred, and brutally stripped of all earthly possessions and property rights. Would Obama have people believe these despotic systems are more forgiving and less chaotic than American Democracy?

He has also stated in his book that he wants to roll back the “Ownership Society” of America. Oh? Does he intend to confiscate personal, financial and commercial property or just set up road blocks to their acquisition?

In Chicago, Obama was trained by the Industrial Areas Foundation, founded by radical Marxist Saul Alinsky. Alinsky wrote “Rules for Radicals.” His super-hero was Lucifer. Under Alinsky’s guidelines. Obama learned the art of deceit. “Power lies in the middle classes. In order to radicalize them you must not be offensive.” Obama called his years in Chicago “The best education I ever had.”

When addressing the AFL-CIO, in reference to legislation passed by the Democratic Congress that would negate a workers right to cast a secret ballot when voting for or against unionization, Obama said “I will make this legislation the law of the land when I’m President.” Oh? I thought all Americans are guaranteed the right to cast a secret ballot.

Welcome to Obamaland.
