America needs Barack Obama to lead us into a new era

The Union Leader ^ | December 5, 2005 | Wayne King

[Past Your Eyes]

This is where Barack Obama is head and shoulders above any of the other potential candidates on either side. This is where he is in a league all his own.

Listen to him speak and you feel the power of his intellect, but just as strongly you feel the power of his heart. This is a leader who will be able and inclined to reach out to the powerful and the disenfranchised. His guileless style and his heart have not yet been corrupted by the cesspool of Washington politics. That's why we need him now.

A muslim in the white house? You must be kidding.

I am sure the left wouldn't mind having a muslim in the White House. But he is not a muslim

"Listen to him speak and you feel the power of his intellect, but just as strongly you feel the power of his heart."

Sounds like a description of BJ Clinton in 1991.

Hillary should be nervous. (I know I am.)

The word for this guy is Tabula Rasa. The libs are projecting onto him their hopes for a liberal renaissance despite the fact that modern day liberalism is a grotesque tumor. They figure his pretty boy mask will conceal the real Dorian Gray face underneath.

Don't make the mistake of thinking there is no substance to this guy or that he is an emty suit. The substance is that of the Fabian Socialist, and the suit is sewn from Marxist cloth.

This guy knows how to package cultural Marxism in an appealing package: watch all his speeches that decry an over reliance on govt, "BUT OTOH we can't allow people to fall thru the cracks," and other jive platitudes delivered in a mellifluous tone. He has the veneer to beguile a whole lot of voting dummies who don't pay attention.

Obama is like the moon: he successfully reflects the "light" people think they see OR want to see. This is a very dangerous man.

Totally agree.

[WilliamofCarmichael]

I have no doubt that he will surround himself with the best and the brightest

When overnight the anointed ones gave us Jimmy Carter his book was, Why not the Best?

I've seen comparisons of Mr. Obama to Robert Kennedy. I recall Kennedy as a hardball, take-no-prisoners politician.

No, IMO Mr. Obama is more like Jimmy Carter. Mr. Carter was introduced to the American public overnight, also. One day back in the mid-1970s there was Jimmy Carter! Who?

On magazine covers, on TV, in the news, promoting his book (yes, Jimmy had one too) -- everywhere. The governor Georgia was the anointed ones' choice. All genuflect!

Well we have a free press nowadays. The liberal gatekeepers have been overwhelmed and the walls that silenced a generation are gone.

Thus I am not too much interested in what Mr. Obama says. I am more interested in what radical Muslim, nutcase groups are not saying. Mr. Obama was the son of a Muslim father. He has committed apostasy, radical Muslim nutcases issue fatwas against every Ali Al Sixpack that leaves Islam. Why is Mr. Obama being given a pass?

[chiefqc]

What has this empty suit ever done and where has he gotten his vast knowledge?

[Past Your Eyes]

Seems to me that there's already way too many so-called "barf alerts". I posted this to show what some people are thinking and saying. IMHO, it would ill serve us not to realize that there are people like Wayne King out there, and probably in numbers greater than we would rather admit.

Not everybody is a drama queen.

[Democratshavenobrains]

Everyone is dumber for having read that.

[AmishDude]

Interestingly enough, according to some Muslims, he is, indeed Muslim. A Hotel California kind of thing: You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave. His father was born a Muslim and apparently left the religion at some point.

By any reasonable measure, Sen. Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. was never Muslim, but Islam isn't known for its reason. Some Imam somewhere will issue a fatwa against him.

[Wormwood]

Some Imam somewhere will issue a fatwa against him.

Which will be good for a few million votes.

Snort. Choke, Chortle, Snicker, Guffaw.
Bwhaaaahaaaaaa!

The power of his intellect.
The power of his intellect. The POWER of his INTELLECT???? Are you eff'en joking? Intellect? Did you read his book? Stunning bit of foolscap crap that. Barack Hussein Obama is just another 'bama street hustler working out of a open suitcase of folding stand, selling knock off tapes or gaudy neckties or umbrellas, as you would see on any downtown street in any major city in the U.S.

A charlatan; a walnut shell and pea man. A Faro dealer.
NO EXECUTIVE experience. He has never made a payroll. Never supervised personnel. Never handled real problems except to make the decision to take or not to take heroin, and whether the personality of the pusher made the event worthy.
Never built anything. Never made anything. But he has flim flammed and feasted at the public teat, as a true politician wannabe.
A born Democrat, willing to be all that he can be if you let him.
The perfect man to pair with Gov.Richardson of New Mexico.
They are what used to be called Luftmenschen by Jews in the last century. People who earn their living out of air, and from the largesse of others charity or by guile.
The United States does not deserve this bit of political excrement as the Commander in Chief.

[MEGoody]

Barack Hussein Obama gives me the willies. Something in my gut tells me this guy is evil.

[SFC Chromey]

Wrong. Rice had extensive experience in foreign policy and national security going back to the Reagan administration.

Wrong, she has extensive experience in studying foreign policy theory and national security theory going back to the Reagan administration.

[Recovering_Democrat]

You might be right about the number of Barf Alerts. :)

I do agree with you about the need to be aware of how the enemy thinks. Otherwise we're just a greenhouse of self adulationists.

[Sprite518]

That is my question too. Why did you not post "Barf Alert" next to the story?

[bitty]

feel .. feel .. feel ...
emotions don't win wars
emotions don't solve problems
emotions don't lead
emotions dull your sensitivities to danger and mask what your intellect is telling you


Man did you ever mail it.

[Wormwood]

Why did you not post "Barf Alert" next to the story?

I'm glad he didn't. That whole 'tradition' smacks of DU-level childishness.

Just my opinion.
