Obama “Hopeful” Immigration Will Drown Conservatism
Daily Caller ^ | 02/09/2015 | Neil Munro

Posted on 02/10/2015 7:50:27 AM PST by Rusty0604

The spread of vibrant social diversity is constricting the GOP’s ability to champion conservative causes, such as smaller government and independent families, President Barack Obama said in a softball media interview.

“So people are getting more and more comfortable with the diversity of this country, much more sophisticated about both the cultural differences but more importantly, the basic commonality that we have,” he said.

That diversity hinders conservative priorities, he said.

“The Republican party, even the most conservative, they have much less ability, I think, to express [opposition to single-sex marriage] than they did even 10 years ago,” Obama said.

Obama also used the interview to declare the free-market has failed to deliver economic opportunities and decent wages throughout society.

The market’s failure, he said, requires more progressive government intervention in the economy.

The drop in wages and rise in government dependence caused by Obama’s policy of mass immigration simultaneously gives Obama the opportunity to justify even more immigration and to portray conservative as bigots. “I know some worry immigration will change the very fabric of who we are, or take our jobs, or stick it to middle-class families at a time when they already feel like they’ve gotten the raw deal for over a decade,” he said Nov. 20.

“I believe it’s important that all of us have this debate without impugning each other’s character,” he added in his Nov. 5 speech, slyly suggesting that his GOP critics are bigots.

He replayed the rhetorical trick in his Vox interview, saying “the Republican Party, even the most conservative, they have much less ability, I think, to express discriminatory views than they did even 10 years ago.”

“And that’s a source of optimism. It makes me hopeful,” he said.

He says while 'drowning' out any opposing point of view with his illegal executive actions.

I utterly and completely despise this piece of sh*t.

He just can’t resist tempting God, can he. When this man’s rebuke comes, it will shock the world, I suspect.

You mean like you, Obama, did in front of Rick Warren's church? You are a liar and a fraud. You are a curse on America.

He never finds any fault with government. That’s his other religion.

Every day the damage this “man” (lack of a better term) does gets worse and worse and deeper and deeper and most Americans have no clue it’s going on. It’s terrible.

From the time he spoke to Joe the Plumber he hasn’t put on any pretense.

To me, this sounds racist, and equates conservative with Caucasian. Maybe that's his world view, but it's not accurate. The example he uses about same sex marriage doesn't match with his comments about diversity. I don't have statistics, but African American and Hispanic families are fairly ‘conservative’ about those types of social issues. Then there's the Islamic point of view, which is clearly different from Obama’s on that issue. Ironically, it's likely liberal white Americans that are among the biggest supporters of same sex marriage.

The other comments are just ridiculous, including his characterization of the failure of the market place. He truly is a socialist, at best.

--Standard leftist response to that revealing exchange.

It does indeed. After he lost the senate it seems he’s thrown caution to the wind. The depths of his true radical views are becoming increasingly transparent.

Aside from his arrogant ideological ranting, expect to see breathtaking attempt at power grabs over the next two years. He’s going for broke. America had better wake up fast.

The actual rendition of Proverbs 16:18 is more foreboding:
Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
The Hebrew word translated “destruction” here literally means to be broken in pieces.

This has been the objective all along, for both the democrats and the Republican Establishment.

Okay, then.

He has openly stated that he is opposed to free speech and welcomes its demise.

This is a clear violation of his oath of office, and is yet another impeachable offense for which he will not be held accountable.

It’s already too late, Starboard. Americans had the chance to toss him out in 2012 and blew it. We will not have another chance for redemption until the trumpet sounds. Let’s hope that happens soon...
