Obama: The African colonial

Had Americans been able to stop obsessing over the color of Barack Obama's skin and instead paid more attention to his cultural identity, maybe he would not be in the White House today. The key to understanding him lies with his identification with his father, and his adoption of a cultural and political mindset rooted in postcolonial Africa.

Like many educated intellectuals in postcolonial Africa, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. was enraged at the transformation of his native land by its colonial conqueror. But instead of embracing the traditional values of his own tribal cultural past, he embraced an imported Western ideology, Marxism.

I, too, “believe the setup was planned years earlier.”

Communists rule by absolute five year or more plans.

I fear we have been too lackadaisical.

...Canada, US of A , Australia,

Its a function of choice, every step. Once you are there what do you want to do? All of these colonies chose to follow law and prosper. But for Africans? Too many tribes and illiteracy. Still plagued with it today. Thats one of the reasons they exceed at failure. Sure they have structured societies, all tribal monarchies. Political/religous philosophy is still 1000 years backwards. When was the last time the whiteman had tribes in England? Germany? France?

He's not one of us.

He doesn't get a lump in his throat when the Star Spangled Banner is played before a race or a game.

He never saw old vets struggle to stand, then proudly removed their hats, cover their hearts and face the flag when he and his high school marching band played the National Anthem before every football game.

... but he can recite the Koran.

Probably a master in Arabic too.

Dear Allah,

Please keep Vladimir Putin from releasing the KGB file with my Kenyan birth certificate, my
CPSU membership card, records of all my KGB training and the other ID documents these
bitter, gun owning, bible clinging, whining Americans are always squawking about.

Also, please continue to keep Michelle out of my hair with her shopping and busy work.
I don’t care how much that backyard garden costs taxpayers. If it keeps her in front of
cameras and out of my office its worth any price - after all, I'm not the one paying the bill.

As always, Your faithful servant,
Barack Hussein Obama

PS - I still believe the evening call to prayer is the most beautiful sound in the world.

To All:

"1. Convince the people that "clinging" to any aspect of their cultural (tribal) identity or history is bad and regresses the process of 'unity'."

How many times have have us traditional Americans been called by the lefty pundits "nativist and "tribalist?"(read:xenophobic racists)

"2.Confiscate the wealth and resources of the area that you govern by any means necessary in order to redistribute wealth"

Comment unnecessary!

"3. Convince the masses that your upper-crust university education naturally puts you on an intellectual plane from which to understand everything even when you understand nothing."

Fortunately, even the "useful idiots" have begun to figure out that Obongo isn't all that bright!

"4 Lie to the people and tell them that progress is being made even though things are clearly becoming worse."

Comment unnecessary!

ABOUT AS GOOD AS IT GETS FOR ME!

Having arrived at the Gates of Heaven, Barrack Obama meets a man with a beard.
Are you Mohammed?’ he asks. ‘No my son, I am St. Peter; Mohammed is higher up.
Peter then points to a ladder that rises into the clouds .

Delighted that Mohammed should be higher than St. Peter, Obama climbs the
ladder in great strides, climbs up through the clouds and comes into a
room where he meets another bearded man. He asks again, ‘Are you Mohammed?’
‘Why no he answers, I am Moses; Mohammed is higher still .’

Exhausted, but with a heart full of joy he climbs the ladder yet again,
he discovers a larger room where he meets an angelic looking man with a
beard. Full of hope, he asks again, ‘Are you Mohammed?’ ‘No, I am
Jesus, the Christ...you will find Mohammed higher up. ‘

Mohammed higher than Jesus! Man, oh man! Obama can hardly contain his
delight and climbs and climbs ever higher. Once again, he reaches an
even larger room where he meets this truly magnificent looking man with
a silver white beard and once again repeats his question:

“Are you Mohammed?” he gasps as he is by now, totally out of breath from
all his climbing. ‘No, my son.... I am Almighty God, the Alpha and the
Omega, but you look exhausted. Would you like a cup of coffee?”

Obama says, “Yes please”! As God looks behind him, he claps his hands
and yells out: “Hey Mohammed-two coffees!””

Keep your trust in God...your president is an idiot...

The Roots of Obama’s Rage by Dinesh D’Souza, gives a deeper understanding of Zer0's anti-colonial thinking. It is an insight into his thinking, much influenced by Communists like Bill Ayers who also saw the Vietnam War as an anti-colonial struggle. How we put Zer0 into the Presidency with such deep animosity to everything represented by the West is a bigger indictment of the American electorate and the American Press.

O's grandather, and possibly his father, were imprisoned during the Mau Mau insurrection.

If you are not familiar with Mau Mau, I highly suggest you become so.

Robert Ruark wrote two novels about it, based on his time in Kenya and friendships with Kenyan farmers and hunters.

Very gruesome, but it gives great insight not seen in 'historical' accounts.

The first book, "Something of Value", covers Mau Mau & the lead-up to it. The second, "Uhuru", centers on the post Mau Mau period, and the politics involved.

Viewing O with an eye on his origins, and his acknowledgement of them, provides an insight never covered in the press.

Great article! So what if it represents Ms. Ikenga’s point of view and not ours?

[Scanian]

“He just might, have been born in America,
but he didn’t grow up here.”

We can also make that statement about two of the most dyed-in-the-wool Obamanoids, Timothy Geithner and Valerie Jarrett.

[Scanian]

This essay PRECEEDED D’Souza by a year.

I hope Dinesh remembered to thank him.

(Actually, most any former colonial sees that stuff in Obama. My business partner who is from Trinidad says some vicious things about him and he doesn’t even read the funny paper. It is just obvious to them from experience with such types but it is largely lost on Americans)

[Scanian]

The African AND Middle Eastern (Arab) colonies which gained independnce during the ‘50’s and ‘60’s were taken over by socialist or fascist (Baathist) despots who were re-distributionist and “revanchist” toward the colonial powers.

The authoritarian nature of Islam and tribal societies probably had a lot to do with that.

The newly independent Asian nations have followed a different path which is more free-market oriented and they have prospered tremendously by comparison.

[Scanian]

This post, which is a re-post from 2009, came about as a result of a discussion of D’Souza’s book on a thread the other night.

A FReeper remembered the essay, recommended it, and then posted it here.

The “Roots” book is from 2010. so I don’t know if any borrowing went on. I do know that former colonials pick up on Obummer’s posing right away, as I previously commented.

[Scanian]

The Mau Maus were mostly Kikuyu but a few of Obama’s Luo tribe were involved, including his grandfather who was imprisoned by the Brits and came out psychologically broken. Barack Sr was really too young to be involved but he surely believed in the Mau Mau aims.

[Texas Eagle]

And look what Kenya has become since those colonials have left. It has deteriorated to below third world status.

Worse than Detroit?

[Scanian]

The thing is, it probably represents Obama’s point of view.
