KENNETH BLACKWELL: Obama's Head Fake
NY Sun ^ | April 10, 2008 | KENNETH BLACKWELL

Posted on 04/10/2008 11:39:06 AM PDT by neverdem

Not since Walt Frazier have New Yorkers seen such exquisite basketball skills. Now Barack Obama has taken center court and his basketball skills are legendary in the recreation centers of Chicago. The buzz is that his head fake is deceptive and his jump shot deadly. He is apparently attempting to transfer his head-fake skills to the American political arena — fake right, go left. The American electorate should not fall for it.

Three revelations over the past month have started to reveal a very different portrait of the junior senator than what Mr. Obama and his promoters have been painting during this campaign. These recent revelations could redefine the campaign, and put him on unsustainable footing.

Mr. Obama's candidacy was unanticipated. He came from obscurity in 2004, and was sworn in as senator in 2005. He started running for president in...

--SNIP--

Mr. Obama's extreme views on the Second Amendment and abortions, coupled with giving benefits and driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, and his opposition to surveillance of terrorist phone calls overseas, start to form a coherent portrait of a political radical with a pleasant smile and easy manner. The candidate who has said that evangelical leaders who speak out on issues like religious liberty and same-sex marriage have "hijacked" Christianity has provided us with an ample supply of social and national security issues to vet.

When we add his positions on economic issues to this picture, his naïve foreign policy and willingness as president to meet with tyrants without preconditions, we get a sharper portrait of Mr. Obama. It is a disturbing pattern.

Voters are being sold a bill of goods. The more we discover about him, the more he goes from looking like a big-government, doctrinaire liberal, to being a radical on the fringe of the political spectrum...

Mr. Blackwell 'gets it'. Refreshing.

Now, hopefully enough Americans of both flavors will see through this candidate's veil of smoke and mirrors and send him back to lap at the feet of his masters.

That's all he is, in ten words or less.

It's taking a while for the country to catch on because he's a political anomaly, a Marxist with a pleasant demeanor.

It is a good thing that the author is Ken Blackwell or the Obama defense squad would accuse him of racism. They may anyway. The goal is to shutdown or discredit any criticism of of a black candidate while proclaiming him to be the great unifier.

Ken Blackwell has been certified black enough to be an official Obama critic.

“Ken Blackwell has been certified black enough to be an official Obama critic.”

Is that you Mr. Snerdley?

Anyway, my butt is lily white and I'm beginning to feel certified black enough to criticize this clown!

He is Saul Alinsky's most accomplished disciple. Cut your hair, put on a suit, smile, learn to act and speak like a normal person even if you are a crazed radical. It works.

Most lefties eventually reveal themselves thru dress, anger, or sudden and inappropriate use of radical terms ("imperialist" "nazi") in a fit of anger. The closest we've come with Obama is Michelle's "first time I've been proud" comment and Obama not pledging allegiance. We'll just have to keep chipping away to reveal the real monster underneath.

Obama is like the guy in "Being There." Empty. Vapid. Stupid. The Libs are reading into this human vacuum whatever they want to see.

“Obama is like the guy in “Being There.” Empty. Vapid. Stupid.”

I was going to write an article using that very analogy, but discarded it because I felt It woulds be too cumbersome to explain “being there” to people who hadn’t seen, or read it.

Also, the “chance” character in ‘Being There’ acts with innocence, where Obama’s actions are deliberate and deceptive.

Anyway, it’s very strange how certain people see in him, what they want to see, and believe, what they want to believe.

Blackwell say Hussein was “unanticipated”?

The MSM/Hollywood/Academia WAR ROOM have been pushing him, canonizing covering, and whitewashing him for 5 years!!!

Republicans are idiots.

It says something about the deteriorated nature of America that Ken Blackwell is sitting on the sidelines and Barack Obama is a top tier candidate for the presidency.

“Obama is like the guy in “Being There.” Empty. Vapid. Stupid. The Libs are reading into this human vacuum whatever they want to see.”

He’s not empty. Turn him upside down, slap him on his back and copies of the Communist Manifesto will come tumbling out.

The ascendancy of Barack He Whose Middle Name May Not Be Spoken Obama is the realization of the efforts of all the Cultural Marxists whose ideas were nurtured by the Gramcians who set up the Frankfurt School and spawned cultural radicals like Erich Fromm, Herbert Marcuse, and Theodore Adorno. Their intellectual progeny are thoroughly ensconced in the MSM, academia, Hollywood, and most importantly in the George Soros directed modern day Democratic Party which is the nest for all the Vipers on the left, the racial identity determininists, the radical feminists, the sexual deviationist lobby, the “watermelon” environmentalists, the open borders crowd and the anti-war seditionists who seek to steal from our magnificent armed forces the victory that they have earned with their blood and valor in the SAME MANNER as they stole our hard earned victory from those of us who are Vietnam vets.
Their apotheosis is the religion of Obama, the Lucifer deceiver who would lead this great nation to Fabian Socialist HELL!!!
Should Barack He Whose Middle Name May Not Be Spoken Obama get a compliant Democrat Congress and Senate, the damage done to this country and to liberty as we have known it, would be incalculable. He is the most dangerous presidential candidates since Henry Wallace. Please check this link. It will tell you all that you need to know. There is credible info that could lead one to believe that his Indonesian stepfather to him to Mosque with the intent of making him Muslim. His own campaign said in a LA Time article that he was never a REGULARLY practicing Muslim, leading one to infer that he was an IRREGULARLY practicing Muslim. That is enough for the Muzzies to convict him as an apostate or to accept him as one of the faithful deceiving the dhimmis. Check the years 1971-1973 at the link below.

This just shows that, despite folks grumbling about it, Rush was right with his ‘Operation Chaos’. The longer the Democrat primary goes on, the more we’ll learn about Obama. We already knew about Her Heinous, but making sure that Obama didn’t just cakewalk into the nomination was a good thing!

Chauncey Gardner:

“In a garden, growth has its season. There is spring and summer, but there is also fall and winter. And then spring and summer again...”

I found a great “Chauncey Gardner” “Being There” type quote by Obama.

Now keep in mind how much Obama likes playing basketball — he’s supposed to be pretty good on the ‘COURT’ too!

Also, keep in mind, that basketball was invented by a WHITE MAN In 1891 — James A. Naismith.

Naismith — a physical education teacher, as part of a project — invented ALL the basic RULES of the game.

He even gave the game it’s name... Basketball!

Now here’s the Obama quote:

“Any distinction between good and bad whites held negligible meaning. *WE were always playing on the WHITE MAN’S COURT … by the WHITE MAN’S RULES*.” — B. H. Obama

Just can’t get away from “whitey” and his “rules” can we Mr. Obama?

WE!... ‘can’t - get - away ... white - man’s - court... white - man’s - rules... Eh, right! ... would you like your Thorazine with water, or maybe something a little stronger — Captain Kirk?

LOL!

If I can get a few more of these kind of quotes from Obama, I think I will do that article.

I mean, all one has to do is set aside the nagging thought that a raging psychotic — that hates America and most of it’s white citizens — is in reach of the Presidency, and hey, every-thing’s cool!(sarcasm)

Maybe Oprah could get him an appointment with Dr. Phil or something?

Oh, I forgot, a white man invented psychotherapy!

Poor Obama, he just can’t get away from the evil white man.

Or is it because he can’t ‘get away’ from himself?
