AFFIRMATIVE ACTION GONE AMOK
by Timothy Rollins, Editor and Columnist
September 11, 2008
On the seventh anniversary of World War III, most Americans still haven't learned a damn thing since terrorists declared war on the United States. Rather than unite as one people against the greater common threat of terrorism, evil and designing Democrats continue to practice their depraved politics of division on the American people with reckless disregard for our safety as a nation. Once again, Democrats are asking us to drink their Kool-Aid, and this year, Americans of conscience are again going to take a pass, notwithstanding liberal media assertions that are part and parcel of their own agenda.
With Bush and Cheney retiring, we now have the major players lined up for the Battle of the Ages. This battle will either save America as we know it, or be the final precursor to Armageddon that propels a white-hating, America-last closet Muslim into the highest office in the land. Obama's idea of a 'worship service' for over 20 years was nothing more than listening to a hate-filled demagogue named Jeremiah Wright cloak himself in the name of God, spewing nothing but vilification of America and those who made her great. Wright deiberately exploited the very freedoms of our open society in order that he may have a pulpit to indulge in his weekly orgy of anti-American verbal dysentery…and we're supposed to elect a follower of this hate-monger president?
As a lifelong practicing Christian, I cannot recall anywhere in the King James Bible where it espouses hatred for others, especially in the measure with which Wright has poisoned the political and social dynamic. The Gospel of Jesus Christ teaches a message of love, acceptance, faith, belief, redemption and service to others above self. The only thing people of faith or conscience are left to conclude is that Barack Obama is a product of his own environment, and that his ascendancy to his status as the Democratic Party's nominee for President of the United States can only have America finally seeing the ultimate in affirmative action's evil by Obama's nomination. You need more reason to vote than 'just giving the black guy a try.' If there is any job that must be earned on merit alone, this one is it.
As previously stated in a 2003 article "Affirmative Action at Work", we see once again how the fruit of what I referred to as the 'Spawn of Satan' only hurts minorities far more than it helps. Affirmative Action is a demeaning and dehumanizing way of sending a message to minorities - especially blacks - that they'll never be good enough to compete on a level playing field with Whitey, and so government must give them an artificial 'boost'. What a bunch of crap!
On their own merit, we see many black Americans make it to the top without an artificial assist from Big Brother. Kenneth Chenault is CEO of American Express. Looking further at merit, we see Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, as well as Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell, with Powell also being the first black American to serve as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Take a look at affirmative action and you get - by her own admission - Michelle Obama. You also get Jayson Blair and Janet Cook, and see how their 'professional competence' affected the New York Times and the Washington Post, respectively. Suffice it to say, these two have been major embarrassments to their cause.
Our votes this election season have mind-boggling consequences. While I don't agree with every utterance that falls from John McCain's lips, I nonetheless agree with Joe Lieberman in that McCain 'gets it' when it comes to protecting our homeland from the undeniable evils of Islamofascism and terrorism, and that Obama is completely clueless. McCain understands the need for a strong, united America, and for not dealing with state sponsors of terrorism such as Iran and other troubled spots around the world.
Obama would ignore a friend to suck up to an enemy in the hopes that enemy will become our friend. These nations are not and never will be our friends. They want to destroy us, and an Obama election will ensure that such not only comes to pass, but stays in place as well. Our enemies are no different than the Clintons; they'll chew Obama up and spit him out when they no longer have need for him.
And when that happens, we, the principled ones, will all be dead because of our refusal to bow to a false God. ***
