Sarah Palin and the Tea Party Express have roared right through the latest round of Republican Party primaries this week, rattling the party establishment and terrifying the Democrats. For those of you who are trained in the fastidious ways of the British ‘liberalism’ and are therefore shocked and can’t think why the American Right is gaining such strength, here’s the reason: Barack Obama.
Americans are waking up to the fact that they have elected a man as president who is every inch an exotic creature. Which was rather fun at first. The problem is, America is discovering that Mr Obama has brought more than just a foreign name and an interesting racial mix to the White House. He has brought a whole foreign way of thinking. And Americans don’t like it.
Millions of them now want national leadership with a more star-spangled way of looking at the world, which is why this week there is something else going on in America, a national debate on a story about Mr Obama in the business magazine, Forbes. The story is called ‘How Obama thinks.’ Its conclusion is that he thinks like a 1950s East African anti-colonialist. The article was written by Dinesh D’Souza, an academic and author who is as exotic as the US president. Mr D’Souza was born in Mumbai and immigrated to America as a student. He is now president of The King’s College in New York. He once served in the Reagan White House. Many of Mr Obama’s critics claim he is a socialist. Certainly, as Mr D’Souza says: ‘Thanks to Obama the era of big government is back. He has expanded the federal government’s control over home mortgages, investment banking, health care, autos and energy.’

I agree.
They know that ALL the personal controversies that swirl around President Obama and WILL NOT DIE — all strains of birtherism, questions about his religion, etc. — fundamentally these are expressions of a deep collective angst on the question of WHO IS THIS MAN?
The fact that so many Americans are even asking WHO IS THIS MAN? is a battle the White House can’t win, regardless.
It is clear Obama is not culturally an American. Therefore, he cannot be an effective American President.
This has been the question that has dogged my thinking ever since Obamacare. Whatever is going on with Obama, and Anticolonism explains a lot, why in Hell’s Bells did the Rats march in lockstep with him AGAINST THEIR OWN COUNTRY?
Was there not ONE DEMOCRAT who saw that Obama was beseiging the very foundations of American exceptionalism?
Why were the Rats so unquestioning in their brutal efforts to force Socialism — which is not even the totality of what Obama is trying to do to this country — down the throats of their own countrymen?
This, I do not understand.
Whatever it is we must get him out of there ASAP!
Exactly.
I, however, would say the President is not so much anti-American as anti-America.
But, of course, the distinction is minute and, in the end, the two reach the same destination.
I am thrilled that people are more and more able to say what they think. This is why those who settled this new world came here in the first place!
I would recommend to anyone who hasn’t already read Dinesh D’Souza’s article, to take the time to do so. It’s a very interesting (and if accurate, disturbing) analysis of what makes Obama tick. Couple this anti-colonialism aspect with Obama’s evident narcissistic personality disorder, and we have one sick, demented puppy holding the top political office in our nation. We are in for some serious trouble (more than already occurred) the longer he is in this position of power.
No its revival is long overdue.
I agree. Obama’s enablers go much further than the cronies who Beck points out. Soros probably is in the next higher group but even he is not the whole influence. I keep in my mind that it was Bush #1 with his world contacts who first gave me ,and probably many others, the introduction to the existance of a ‘new World order. Think of the Walkers/UN and China. Think of the Rothschilds who for years never missed an opportunity to control world finances and of course don’t leave out the Islamic world primed by our ‘friends’ the Saudies.
What is the end game? Dont want to find out.
They started with the logo...
America didn’t elect Obama. Half of America did. Just wanted to make that clear. I never liked or trusted 0 - not once!
As you know, EV, Soros’ Open Society’s East Africa Initiative was started in 2005. It includes Kenya.

IMO, FReepers need to be scouring foreign news sources for initiatives surrounding the actual audience for 0bama’s mouthpiece. They are not American. I know we do this on a regular basis, but we need to be touting them more and allowing them to filter up to the national voices that still support America as special.
Hiyas, fJAG.
I was having this same conversation last night. Someone I know was proposing that the ‘Democrats’ in power don’t necessarily want to destroy America, but, rather, to make it something else that is unrecognizable to most citizens. To fracture it into groups, a la the Arizona border, makes it controllable by using the historical practice of divide and conquer.
“We shall overcome” is now “We shall OVERWHELM”
Of course, I am being redundant here. Apologies.
I think you grabbed the Brass Ring with that comment. They ALL hate our form of government, just as they use it's unique freedoms in their plan to destroy it.
This whole doo-dah is about world socialism. Conservatives like us have been regarded as "primitives" by the intellectual elite since about the end of WWII. Capitalists have been viewed as vicious world plunderers and oppressors. Despite his "silly" blackboards and over-emotional rhetoric, Glenn Beck has done a yeoman's job of exploring this snakepit and identifying the players. Obama is only the figurehead for an organized, wealthy, anti-American underground determined to end this nation as we know it.
Its all true. Brazil, Mexico are shining examples in his energy policy. Militarily? Same. Empowering the others while dhiminishing ourselves. Politically? Breaking all old relationships that make us America ~ while he cozies to the Islamic world. Economically? Destroys the employment and small business while creating the larges debt ever to enslave future generations...effectively bankrupting the nation and creating a nation of servitude.
Nefarious from the outset.
Its about the destruction of the US of A AND the free western world.
An all out offensive from the White Hut! Worst part? America has been sleeping and unaware, Medias? Complicit.
I guess the endgame for them is permanent personal power? I don’t see anything else they might gain out of following Obama off a cliff.
If they do succeed in overwhelming the country — subjugating it, then — that leaves them with all the jellybeans. I guess that is their “reward.”
But it still astounds me that there was not one Democrat who stood up and said, wait a minute, this is anti-America.
By all means. Dr D'Souza's diagnosis is right on the money!
Also, check out the insightful articles at http://www.americanthinker.com/le_ikenga/. L. E. Ikenga is an American woman of Nigerian descent (Igbo tribe, to be precise). Her conclusions about Obama are similar to D'Souza's. Rush Limbaugh read her piece Obama, the African Colonial
on the air last year.
I had a heated discussion with several of my co-workers who claim to be conservatives and Republicans. To paraphrase... they said that Sara Palin was stupid and that Obama was a genius. They also said that if Sara Palin were the Republican nominee that they would vote for Obama.
I pointed out that Sara Palin was raised in a family with traditional American values and that she could be counted on to govern using those values as her guide. I also asked them what evidence they had that Obama was so smart? Could they produce any of his school records? His scholarly papers? Even his accomplishments as a legislator? What about his decisions as the man who occupies the White House? Of course they made no attempt to answer any of these questions other than to say what a great speaker he was. Which I pointed out seemed to apply only while he was reading someone else’s words from a teleprompter.
I then went on to point out that Obama’s mother was a marxist, his grandparents were communists, his mentors were communists, his father and step father were foreigners who were marxist or communists, or as this article points out had some other form of anti-American sentiments. Even his longtime minister, Reverend Wright has a history of marxist anti-American sentiment. In his autobiography, Obama tells how he hung out with radicals. Should it be any suprise that his policies are proving harmful to the United States?
And yet my co-workers coninued to parrot the big media line about how smart Obama was and how stupid Sara Palin was and how they would vote for Obama this time around if Palin was the nominee. It was incredibly frustrating.
The original Forbes article is revealing and it is a very worthwhile read. I am not sure that D’Souza has it completely right, but it he definately is extremely insightful and gives some of the best explanations to date of Obama’s of the pathology of Obama’s make-up. Unfortunately, I am not sure that my dimwitted friends have the attention span to get all the way through the article.
It is a little like the value of trying to understand what went wrong in Charles Manson’s mind however. If Obama was not currently occupying the oval office it wouldn’t matter much what made him tick. His actions and words both before and after he took office indicate that he is at the least not somone who should be trusted to look out for the United State’s best interests. It is very difficult for me to understand why so many have such a difficult time understanding this.
