Screw these idiots. They fiddle while Rome burns. Whining about hostility while the government makes us into effing slaves,in some kind of twisted revenge based on fascist historical justice?

The past is past. We will not pay for the alleged sins of our ancestors, or for the movement that colonized this nation.Let them try and make us pay when none of us were alive when that history was written.

Fascism is always about historical justice, and we have listened to enough from idiots who claim a false moral high ground in order to devolve our inheritance of liberty.

They want to make it about race, just like the fascists did in Europe.And they will have to kill more than 6 million of us.

We will not go quietly into their planned , defective Utopia.We will destroy that false Utopia, and them along with it if necessary.

Right now they claim that 46 million Americans are uninsured. That may be true, but they still get medical services which we ALL pay for, from Emergency Rooms across the nation.Increase these emergency services, and set up a way for those using it to pay.That solves the problem.

Leave the rest of us alone. Or face the music when you come to try and take our security and liberty away.

CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS-MICHELLE OBAMA.link

"...What can it be that has kept Obama in Wright’s pews, and at Wright’s mercy, for so long and at such a heavy cost to his aspirations? Even if he pulls off a mathematical nomination victory, he has completely lost the first, fine, careless rapture of a post-racial and post-resentment political movement and mired us again in all the old rubbish that predates Dr. King. What a sad thing to behold. And how come? I think we can exclude any covert sympathy on Obama’s part for Wright’s views or style—he has proved time and again that he is not like that, and even his own little nods to “Minister” Farrakhan can probably be excused as a silly form of Chicago South Side political etiquette. All right, then, how is it that the loathsome Wright married him, baptized his children, and received donations from him? Could it possibly have anything, I wonder, to do with Mrs. Obama?

This obvious question is now becoming inescapable, and there is an inexcusable unwillingness among reporters to be the one to ask it. (One can picture Obama looking pained and sensitive and saying, “Keep my wife out of it,” or words to that effect, as Clinton tried to do in 1992 when Jerry Brown and Ralph Nader quite correctly inquired about his spouse’s influence.) If there is a reason why the potential nominee has been keeping what he himself now admits to be very bad company—and if the rest of his character seems to make this improbable—then either he is hiding something and/or it is legitimate to ask him about his partner.

I direct your attention to Mrs. Obama’s 1985 thesis at Princeton University. Its title (rather limited in scope, given the author and the campus) is “Princeton-Educated Blacks and the Black Community.” To describe it as hard to read would be a mistake; the thesis cannot be “read” at all, in the strict sense of the verb. This is because it wasn’t written in any known language. Anyway, at quite an early stage in the text, Michelle Obama announces that she’s much influenced by the definition of black “separationism” offered by Stokely Carmichael and Charles Hamilton in their 1967 screed Black Power: The Politics of Liberation in America. I remember poor Stokely Carmichael quite well. After a hideous series of political and personal fiascos, he fled to Africa, renamed himself Kwame Toure after two of West Africa’s most repellently failed dictators, and then came briefly back to the United States before electing to die in exile. I last saw him as the warm-up speaker for Louis Farrakhan in Madison Square Garden in 1985, on the evening when Farrakhan made himself famous by warning Jews, “You can’t say ‘Never Again’ to God, because when he puts you in the ovens, you’re there forever.”I have the distinct feeling that the Obama campaign can’t go on much longer without an answer to the question: “Are we getting two for one?” And don’t be giving me any grief about asking this. Black Americans used to think that the Clinton twosome was their best friend, too. This time we should find out before it’s too late to ask.

STOKELY CARMICHAEL.link

"......Carmichael was born in 1941 in Port of Spain, Trinidad. His family moved to New York City when he was eleven. He showed promise as a young student and was accepted into the mostly white Bronx High School of Science in 1956. He attended Howard University and joined the newly formed Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) in 1960. He participated in SNCC sit-ins and Freedom Rides throughout the Deep South, and when SNCC turned its attention to voter registration, Carmichael led the campaign that established the Lowndes County Freedom Organization, a symbolic forerunner to the Black Panther Party.

That is the whole reason Obamalama was chosen to run for president, he was foisted on America as the first black nominee of a major party so that anyone who pointed out his far left background could be painted as a racist even though he is not black. Had he been one hundred percent white he would have been totally useless to the left and we never would have heard his name.

This past week I had an 87 year old WHITE man, a retired “minister”, call me a white segregationist simply because he has heard my opinion of Obama. I set him straight very quickly, I for one am growing sick and tired of this race card crap, I am NOT PRESENTLY a white segregationist but I make no guarantees for the future if this garbage continues.

I freely admit I have NOTHING positive to say about Barack Hussein Obama but let me add that if he were as white as his mother I would be just as disgusted with him if not more so. Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Bawney Fwank are all white and I have NOTHING positive to say about any of them either. On Obama’s behalf I will admit that he is much better looking than any of those three. As far as which is the dumbest, don’t ask me, I can’t decide.

Why must everything be "black this" or "white that"? I was at the DC march and I marched alongside patriotic AMERICANS, lots and lots of them. They came is all shapes and sizes, in all colors, united in one common cause.

So, thanks a bunch Barry Hussein! You and your "post-racial" ilk make this American sick!

"...You’re not alone. An increasing number of folks are sick of it...

And when that number reaches a critical mass, we pick up pitchforks and make things right again. We're due.

But seriously: The seeds of the next Civil War are contained in this story, and in the responses to it.

THE OBAMA JUNTA

Yes, it may be that Michelle Obama is hoeing Barak's garden, , but Barak has the watch, it is his duty.

I am sure that Michelle is a racist prig of the worst sort, uppity, with false feelings of superiority based on the ideology of "black supremacy" flagrantly within the halls of government, opposed to the evil white man "planters" who continually and naturally lust after her supposedly superior mambohood. This is the simplistic world order according to Michelle Obama.

Really, the fact is that both Obama and Michelle have none, of the wisdom necessary to rule a racially diverse nation. They are scared little puppies full of nothing but cobbled together slogans and cliches, fastened temporarily with the bailing twine of false nationalsim of their affirative action generation, everything handed to them both without truly working for it. America, it must be remembered has people of all races, and does not cotton well to the ideology of " Black Power", or else America would have long ago devolved to be ruled by the Symbionese Liberation Front, or the Black Panther Party. America never rose up to support these black power nationalists, so they decided to trick America.It worked.

Obamas claim to fame is that he managed to trick America into the romanticism of "de Black Man" having finally arrived. Sort of a funky version of "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington." Now the world and American citizens look on in horror as the freedom traditionally implicit in American society is now cast out , and we do indeed have the Symbionese Liberation Front's equivalent running the executive arm of government. It is known by those wise in politics as the Obama Junta.

THIS CANNOT STAND!

Stokley Carmichael is a case in point.

America is now quite tired of Obama's grand experiment. He and his sordid excuse for a partner have now worn out their welcome as Americans discover what they have indeed elected.Perhaps the electorate will learn to never do such a foolish thing again, that is if we ever have another free election.

I don’t understand why Homeland Security has been giving a criminal organization like ACORN a “pass”. What’s the deal? They don’t look at liberal organizations? Who do they think they are? The New York Times or the Washington Post?

Candor7;
I do not believe that you can lump ALL of America into your summation. In fact 1/2 of America saw this for what it is, a man (regardless of Color), with no experience, his own wife said he was not ready, thrust into the national spotlight, a wonderful orator with little substance other than a love for the teleprompter, and his own voice.
He has proven to be a person impressed with himself, above suspicion or reproach, and first to denegrate anyone who tried. Not a world leader, not even a good organizer. ACORN is now being shown as the corrupt partner that pumped votes for his election. Fanatical supporters, who have seen him recently thru “new eyes”, the scales, so to speak, are falling away, and the ruse is embarassing to admit.
He now is embroiled in a court case that MIGHT prove that he is not even qualified under the Constitution to be POTUS. Whats more, is that IF it is true, he did it with malice afore thought, as he is a constitutional scolar from Harvard. Was this an intellectual exercise that went too far? Was it a test to the American people to see just how important the Constitution was to a new generation? We may yet find out.
For now, we have to find what kind of character this “man who may be king” has, if he has the courage of his convictions, if he is a man of his word. Because at this time, in the eyes of the world, he is being seen as a liar, a thief, a usurper, a man without moral equivalence, certainly not a statesman...just a mouthpiece.
Maybe he will change...maybe he will just leave...Anything is better than what he is right now.

Yes, you are right about 1/2 of America. I was writing from 50 years into the futire , looking back with the eye of an hhistorian, from a time when I will have shed this mortal coil.AMerica elected this man.Even though about half of us saw it coming, yet the half of us that saw it comong were disunified, and even an apprehended coming scourge like Obama did not unite us.

Now we are finally coming together, lets hope it lasts.

It is a terrible thing to abuse your homeland, which seems to be the point with Obama, it is NOT his homeland IMO. His moral equivalence will prove to bite him in the butt I think, and it will show him wanting...

Yes, Obamas conduct of disloyalty to America is one of the defining tests of whether he meets Article II of the Constitution.He certainly does not have the behavior of a natural born citizen of the United States.

His bow and kiss to the hand of the King of Saudi, surrounded by a smirking retinue of the Kings Court, as photographed, ices that cake.

No one has to look very far to find a place where all the things black liberation theology expounds upon has happened; a place where they have done already what they are trying to do to us, U S, now; a place that USED to be wealthy, the breadbasket of Africa, an exporter of food and goods, now rife with starvation and backwardness. All the white people are gone. They have exactly what they wanted.

They call it Zimbabwe.

Candor -

You wrote that “the fact is that both Obama and Michelle have none of the wisdom necessary to rule a racially diverse nation.”

We in America do not elect RULERS! We elect a leader, an administrator, preferably a patriot who loves his country.

0 is none of these.

But I don’t hold it against him that he is unfit as a RULER. We took up arms more than two centuries ago to obliterate such tyranny.

I call bullshit on the “racism” comments. That’s just absurd and shows the deep level of blindness in some people. It’s an easy excuse, easier than, say, accepting the truth and moving on.

Can one still be called a racist if one supports Dr. Alan Keyes? I guess it’s easier to play the race card than to think a little for themselves.
