"A wise and frugal government which shall restrain men
from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government."

It's All Academic: The Detachment of President Obama

During the general election of 2008, many of us started connecting the dots and finding out about Obama's associates over time. One thing jumped out -- his associates were predominately anti-American, anti-white, pro-socialist/communist. He was a Community organizer who some say got his start with ACORN and now it is VOTE SMART who is an affiliate and close ally of ACORN. He gave lessons to ACORN workers on how to be a community organizer. Where did he learn to be a community organizer and who put him in the position of heading Vote Smart during the Washington campaign in Chicago?

In our research, we have found Obama severely lacking on what is important to the safety of this Nation. He goes around the world apologizing to our enemies and dissing our long time allies. After reading this article, we find that we are not the only ones who see a disconnect between Obama rhetoric and Obama actions.

Playing the race card is not going to work with most of us because we know we are not racist. We judge Obama on his agenda not on the color of his skin. Several years ago if former Cong JC Watts had decided to run for President, we would have lined up firmly behind him because he espoused values that are needed in this Country. JC was elected to Congress in a 85-90% white district because his ideas resonated with the people of Oklahoma. He was part of the Republican Congress who were elected in 1994campaigning on their Contract with America. They were elected not on social issues but on the agenda of smaller government, less taxes, strong security, strict constructionist judges and their pledge to get the Government back on track.

We are Americans first and foremost before any party. As the days go by, it is becoming more obvious this Administration is about making this Country a socialist country and redestribute the wealth. The people who are in DC today for the National Tea Party are not just Republicans, but Independents and Democrats -- same with the Town Halls on Healthcare. A coalition of people that believe in our Constitution is forming and in 2010 that coalition will be heard. Mr. Obama, Speaker Pelosi, and Leader Reid are going to discover that the vast majority of Americans have no intention of allowing this Nation to become socialist country.

Read this article and ask yourself what you really know about Obama and then start asking the media why they did no investigation into this man that ran for President and was elected in large part due to cover-up of Obama's associates and his agenda. How many members of the media prefer a socialist government with state run media? Is that why they covered for Obama or was it a feel good, first black President, moment? Food for thought!

President Obama possesses a distressing detachment from both his words and actions. His cool demeanor now seems cold. His movie star nonchalance, calculated. His soaring rhetoric, the words of a pastor who has long since stopped believing them.

Yet it is not Obama who has changed. After having had time to watch him make decisions, the world now simply can see and comprehend who he is.

During the campaign, those who saw this dissonance in Barack Obama could be dismissed as partisan. His most strident critics were accused of heartless cynicism, or worse — bald racism. As if critics of the man were driven primarily by his skin color or else hated all things Democrat.
Senator Obama had the misfortune of being both.

Those who disagreed did so because of their “reptilian brain,” said Janeane Garofalo.

Barack Obama seemed right. Processing his words through the frontal lobe, they sounded good. Since he wasn’t pressed or questioned, since even Bill O’Reilly seemed beguiled by Barack Obama’s verbal deftness, he rarely had to prove or defend. He was always given enough rhetorical wiggle room. He still is given that room, by the the press anyway. But something always felt wrong. It wasn’t a primal reaction to the “other,” like Olbermann and Garafalo like to claim. It was something ethereal, because Senator Obama had no concrete policies or past accomplishments besides community organizing upon which to stand. His associations aroused some suspicion, but to most they seemed trivial and the press was uninterested.

His associations seem more important these days — at least to the voters. And they’re providing concrete evidence of why some voters felt discomfort before.
