We've Figured Him Out (Ben Stein nails Obama!)

Why is President Barack Obama in such a hurry to get his socialized medicine bill passed?

Because he and his cunning circle realize some basic truths:

The American people in their unimaginable kindness and trust voted for a pig in a poke in 2008. They wanted so much to believe Barack Obama was somehow better and different from other ultra-leftists that they simply took him on faith.

They ignored his anti-white writings in his books. They ignored his quiet acceptance of hysterical anti-American diatribes by his minister, Jeremiah Wright.

They ignored his refusal to explain years at a time of his life as a student. They ignored his ultra-left record as a "community organizer," Illinois state legislator, and Senator.

The American people ignored his total zero of an academic record as a student and teacher, his complete lack of scholarship when he was being touted as a scholar.

Now, the American people are starting to wake up to the truth. Barack Obama is a super likeable super leftist, not a fan of this country, way, way too cozy with the terrorist leaders in the Middle East, way beyond naïveté, all the way into active destruction of our interests and our allies and our future.

Bottom line is Israel and taxes will trump social issues when a lot of jewish voters go to the polls next presidential election.

Hope you’re right. It amazes me that they didn’t see the obvious. Just his appointments of key positions should be a hint. Many are very anti Israel. It’s obvious that he is courting the Arab block while alienating Israel. It’s almost as if he wants to cut ties with any nation having long ties to the U.S. and who believe in Democracy and the rule of law. Just as he seems to be attacking our own entrenched institutions he’s doing the same with our allies. It’s almost as if he wants to destroy all that we stood for before his election so that he owns it all and controls it all.

I worked most of my work life for a jewish family and had many jewish friends and most were secular and really didn’t identify that much with Israel directly but they were big contributors to Israel and realize the ramifications of our appeasement of countries preaching hatred and intolerance.

>>Everyone agreed that they would not be voting for anyone with incumbent after their name

>Voting no longer matters, ACORN made sure of that.

>(vote early, vote often, using multiple names) THAT’S how you win elections!

Vote with high-velocity projectiles and THAT problem will go away.

Well, presidents do make mistakes. We got McClellan last time, LOL.

>I was starting to dislike Ben Stein, but he just wrote a 5 star sweet piece here.

His “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed” documentary was an interesting/enjoyable one.

>Most jews he knows view conservatives as anti abortion religious zealots and therefore, as long as the Dems protect Israel, their vote will be for the Dems.

The Dems protect Israel? How can that be when they want to cut military funding and/or legitimize Hamaas?

I’m from Bristol. It is a ticket only event. Employees only and such. I figure it is a payback to Rick Boucher for his cowtowing to Pelosi and Obama. He is supposed to be a REPRESENTATIVE. He does not vote anywhere near the way anyone that I know wants him to vote like. I have heard that the Kroger’s parking lot will be closed off by noon.There will be a protest there.People will walk in if they have to. I figure that there will be some type of ruckus or another over this. Obama is very unpopular around here because of his big government policies. I heard on the radio that they are considering closing down I-81 so that the motorcade can have a clear path. It will go right by my house.
