President Barack Obama is not famous for a stoic ability to take any amount of criticism, let alone the level heaped upon anyone who is fortunate enough to win the job he has and wanted. So it really comes as no surprise that he used his commencement speech at the University of Michigan today to address his critics instead of the graduates. The surprise, albeit a mild one, was that he tried to use the founding principles of the country to do it.

Why would anyone be surprised? Obama, the Marxist, is attempting an Orwellian corruption of the language. By conflating our nation's founding principles with the Marxist agenda rational discuss becomes impossible. **That** is the goal!
It is part of the “demoralization” process that Yuri Besmenov, the former KGB spy, warn us against. A nation with a corrupted language is more easily confused and manipulated.
The man is a benighted demagogue. His ignorance of the character and nature of this republic is only exceeded by his brash requirement that we be changed into his image of a true Marxist state.
Thanks for the post..Very good points made...Bama hates to be criticized and will try to destroy whomever disagrees with him...He’s a saint and he’s only doing what’s good for us...We are his children and have no clue as to what is best for us...What and egotist, narcissist, and sociopath
Do you increase spending dramatically during hard times?
Do you get pay and benefits far above that of the private sector?
No??
Oh, then I guess you and me ain’t “us”
This is a strawman! No conservative is against **ALL** government. In fact, conservative believe the role of government is to protect our RIGHTS!!!
How is it possible to argue against a talking point that is Obama's sole creation?
For when our government is spoken of as some menacing, threatening foreign entity, it conveniently ignores the fact in our democracy, government is us."
Obama is responding directly to ***RUSH LIMBAUGH*** who read an American Thinker essay yesterday about Obama being utterly foreign in his philosophy. Real Americans do not do or say what he says and does! And...The article obliquely refers to Obama's undocumented birthplace.
Rush, yesterday, read the essay, “A Stranger in our Midst” from the American Thinker. The following is the link:
The threatening foreign entity is Zero.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Absolutely!
Yesterday, was literally one of the most powerful and important shows Rush has every produced. I believe that Rush's reading of this essay will literally be recorded as an **historic** event. ( Really, I do.)
The following is a quote from the essay, "A Stranger in the Midst of us":
"It is as if the United States has been occupied by a foreign power, and this transcends policy objections. It is not about Obama's birthplace. It is not about race, either; millions of white Americans have had black mayors and black governors, and this unease about out-of-synch values never surfaced."
How Obama handled the issue of his birthplace **adds** to our feeling that the man is a foreigner! A NORMAL American would be **HONORED** to promptly provide all of the very best evidence that he is a natural born citizen!
No NORMAL American would allow a LTC Lakin to face court martial or allow him to go to prison. NORMAL Americans would NOT NOT NOT do that!!! A NORMAL Amercian would simply prove he was natural born and be proud and honored to do it, too!
Here is another quote from the article:
"This disquiet was a slow realization. Awareness began with Obama's odd pre-presidency associations, decades of being oblivious to Rev. Wright's anti-American ranting, his enduring friendship with the terrorist guy-in-the-neighborhood Bill Ayers, and the Saul Alinsky-flavored anti-capitalist community activism. Further add a hazy personal background -- an Indonesian childhood, shifting official names, and a paperless-trail climb through elite educational institutions. "
NORMAL Americans do not have paperless births, birth places, childhoods, passport travel, or college careers!
NORMAL Americans are able to produce armies of citizen witnesses to their newborn days, christenings, babyhood, early childhood education, ...and...NORMAL Americans would be HONORED to provide all of the documentation around these events.
Obama is ACTING LIKE A FOREIGN USURPER!!!!
A FOREIGN USURPER lawyers up and wastes the time of the Department of Justice and its attorneys to hide **common** documents that a NORMAL American would be HONORED to promptly produce!
And...Obama wasted the resources of the Deparmtment of Justice at a time when plots were being laid to blow planes out of the sky and KILL soldiers on their bases! What NORMAL American would **DO** THAT????

I feel like Vitoria Jackson's song, "There's a Communist in the White House", except it should be "There's a FOREIGN USURPER in the White House!"
And, YES!, I am shouting, jumping up and down,and making a big scene about it!
His ignorance of the character and nature of this republic is only exceeded by his brash requirement that we be changed into his image of a true Marxist state.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The man is not acting like a NORMAL American! ( Hm?...Maybe because he isn’t?)
Please read my posts #7 and #10.
Rush nailed it yesterday!
