It’s just Obamao disciples cleaning up the internet. Nothing to see here. /s
Well, looks like I was wrong about the Obamaoists (this time).
When Odinga lost he urged his mostly Muslim supporters to incite violence against the Christian voters who backed his opponent. The violence that followed his call for protests killed hundreds of Kenyans and displaced many thousands more. Obama's cousin Odinga was trained in communism in East Germany during the cold war, and has been jailed by Kenya's elected officials more than once for inciting violence in that nation.
Thought about that, but he'd insist on the entire name being in there.....just for dear old dad.
Have you seen this:
Goat Politics
Laura Dawn Lewis
SOCIALISM: You have two goats. You keep one and give the other to your neighbor and the government keeps any kids, (no one goat herder can be richer than the next).
COMMUNISM: You have two goats. The Government takes your goats and shares the milk with you and your neighbor but rations the wool at exorbitant prices and then forces you to cut any clothing made in half to share with the rest of the population.
DICTATORSHIP: You have two goats and your neighbor has two cows. The ruler decides since the goats aren't producing enough milk or wool and “Baa” each time he passes, there is a goat conspiracy. He orders all goats killed and creates new anti-goat laws. Since you tend goats, you are also considered an enemy of the state. One night you and your goats’ carcasses disappear never to be seen again. The next day the dictator changes the law. A bull charges him. Cows are now conspirators. That night your neighbor disappears and his cows are shot. Since the dictator has killed all of the milk sources he develops osteoporosis and blames the doctors. Doctors are now outlawed and considered conspirators.
MONARCHY: The king owns a herd of goats. By decree you are responsible for two goats. The king keeps all the milk, wool and any kids your goats have and sells the proceeds back to you at a steep mark-up. You then pay the king a tax for the privilege of caring for his goats on his lands and if you do a good job and don't cause trouble, he lets you stay. If you cause trouble, fail to pay his taxes or he is unsatisfied with your work, he takes his goats, locks you in prison and throws your family off his land.
FASCISM: You have two goats. You give the milk to the government. The government turns around and sells it back to you at a 400% mark-up, but only if you are the "right" kind of human being. If you're the wrong kind, not only will you have to buy the milk back at a 400% mark-up, you'll need to survive a walk through a mine field, numerous checkpoints and escape the refugee/concentration/internment camp to claim it.
ANARCHY: You have two goats. Your neighbors conspire to set you up. You are arrested by the secret police and never seen again. Meanwhile your neighbors steal your goats.
I’m preparing myself for the inevitable, “So what’s wrong with communism?”
Connect McCain’s name to any of those points and he would be mud. I’m disgusted with the media. Who out there is on our side?
Barry X wrote that he sought to emulate “Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.” Dubois and Mandela were both communists. Malcolm X was a black separatist and Martin Luther King, while not a communist was in fact a socialist and a communist sympathizer who opposed America’s fight against the communist Ho Chi Minh regime.
Excellent!
Yes, this is correct. Many will die.
“Thing is, the “kids” under 25, or so, don’t understand what Communism means.”
It isn’t just the kids. Half of Americans are as clueless to danger as the extinct Dodo bird was.
Yes they will. Of course, many (the unborn) have already died at the hands of these killers.
However, it will be the “born” who will be dying soon in this country.
What does Communism leave wherever it has gone:
starvation deaths
gulags - prison camps, farms
reeducation camps
an elite who have all they need
the masses in great hunger, need, want, poverty, filth
knocks on the door in the night
imprisonment/execution without real trials
ending of free press, freedom to worship God
Total corruption of government officials
Breakdown of infrastructure - roads, toilets
Pollution - lack of clean air, clean water
Physical attacks / cruelty / violence
THAT all is now coming to America.
But the deceived ones will not believe it til it hits. Them.
"I have no doubt that Obama is a socialist… pure and simple. I’m not certain what flavour… Hillary was European socialist, no doubt there. Obama is more of the third-world-on-the-fringe-of-communism-but-not-quite-there-yet brand, I think. Whatever. What he is peddling is not good for this country, a nation of free and independent people seeking to better themselves through their own efforts, unfettered by an overbearing authority.
"The article lacks documentation in so far as some of its charges are concenrned, e.g. “sent government agents to intimidate American citizens who have said they don’t agree with him and will not vote for him”… “tried to use the offices of state Attorneys General to silence any opposition or dissent”.
"For those who don’t track Obama’s positions, minus specificity this comes off as fear-mongering and only gives the left more ammunition with which to fire back.
"And if that weren’t enough, the article finishes with a too-often used rhetorical device which in this case falls even flatter due to its being false: The Russians, Germans, Chinese, North Koreans, Vietnamese and Cubans did “think it could happen here” since they supported and participated in the revolutions which resulted in communist government. You might argue that they did not fully appreciate the full extent in which their daily lives would be affected, but to state they did not know that embracing communism would radically change the way their society was structured is folly… change (there’s that word again…) is what they were seeking!"
Sorry, don’t agree.
Obama was nutured by Muslims/Communists.
He is a Communist.
The instances of gestapo style tactics in Missouri and intimidation of the TV stations WERE documented.
My Dad’s not denying that these incidents happened, it’s just that there’s little or no specificity mentioned in the article’s points. We, as FReepers, can believe it, due to other info we have read, and extrapolate from it what the Obamao is likely to do to critics once in office. However, the casual email recipient of the article is likely to see these points as hyperbole or fear-mongering. (These days, some recipients could see it as just fine with them, considering our country’s apparent lack of grounding people in the values of liberty.)
