Part One — The Fiction and Non-Fiction of Obama (decent primer with video)
The Blaze ^ | 5-12-12 | Tiffany Gabbay

Posted on 05/12/2012 11:02:29 AM PDT by STARWISE

*snip*

With this in mind, Glenn Beck dedicated his Thursday evening broadcast to reviewing the staggering array of inconsistencies, embellishments and “manufactured lies” perpetuated by the president over the course of his political career.

“His life is complete fiction,” Beck said. Let’s review the non-fiction version before we go any further:

(video appears)

In Part II of this report, we will briefly profile some of the president’s more questionable deeds, but in order to provide proper context, consider the following cast of characters who helped to shape Obama’s life and mindset.

Dreams from an anti-colonialist father

It is difficult to understand what truly moves the president without understanding who his father was.

In his book, “The Roots of Obama’s Rage,” Dinesh D’Souza described in painstaking detail, an unsavory character who womanized, abused, drank excessively (killing a man in one drunk-driving incident, losing both of his legs in another, and later killing himself in yet another), abandoned his eight children at various points in their lives, married thrice without ever divorcing his previous wives, and advocated taxing income at a 100% rate.

Unbelievably, the man described is not a work of fiction. He was President Barack Obama’s father.

Barak Obama Sr. (spelled without the “c”) was a Harvard economics graduate student from Kenya and despite the president’s insistance that his paternal lineage comprised humble stock, Barak Sr. was actually from a prominent and wealthy farming family. His father, Hussein Onyango Obama, was also an observant Muslim who chose the Arabic name “Barak” because it means “blessed.”

In an article written for the East Africa Journal in 1965, “Problems Facing Our Socialism,” Barak Sr. explained that in the wake of colonialism, socialism was necessary to ensure national autonomy for Kenya. “The question,” he wrote, “is how are we going to remove the disparities in our country, such as the concentration of economic power in Asian and European hands . . .?” [emphasis added]

“We need to eliminate power structures that have been built through excessive accumulation so that not only a few individuals shall control a vast magnitude of resources as is the case now.”

Sound familiar?

Obama Sr. went on to insist that “theoretically there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100 percent of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed.”

D’Souza explains the significance:

Absurd as it seems, the idea of 100 percent taxation has its peculiar logic. It is based on the anti-colonial assumption that the rich have become rich by exploiting and plundering the poor; therefore, whatever the rich have is undeserved and may be legitimately seized.

Recall now that the president’s book is titled Dreams From My Father, not Dreams Of My Father. In the memoir, Obama described longing to emulate his senior, writing, “it was into my father’s image, the black man, son of Africa, that I’d packed all the attributes I sought in myself.”

D’Souza also noted those close to Obama Jr., including his grandmother Sarah Obama, agreed with the passage. She told Newsweek, “I look at him and I see all the same things — he has taken everything from his father . . . this son is realizing everything the father wanted.”

While some might argue that it is implausible to think the president would seek to live-out the dreams of a deeply flawed man who callously abandoned him, human nature and psychology dictates otherwise. Even into adulthood, we often seek the approval of our parents — sometimes even the ones that withhold love — because theirs is the affection we most desire gaining.

True, one cannot hold the president responsible for the sins of his father, but that does not mean he doesn’t still seek his approval.

All the while, Obama dimisses the influence his father had on him. Yes, it is possible that the president is so repulsed by his father’s life that he would reject everything the man ever stood for, but then why would his own memoir read as a tribute to the dreams his father never had the opportunity to realize?

“We’re not in Kansas anymore”: Stanley Ann Dunham

Not a tremendous amount is known about the woman with an unusual first name who married Barak Obama Sr., some say, to spite her racist father. But what we can glean from various accounts provides relevant insight into Obama’s upbringing and influences.

After moving several times as a child, Stanley Ann Dunham eventually settled in progressive Mercer Island, just outside Seattle. She attended Mercer Island High School, a place that distinguished itself by having a former Communist Party member serve as chairman of the island’s school board. But that is not where the leftist connections ended.

According to the American Thinker, Dunham attended her high school’s ”anarchy alley,” where philosophy courses on Karl Marx were offered. The academics leading the effort were Val Foubert and Jim Wichterman, both reportedly of the Marxist “Frankfurt School“ and who taught ”critical theory” to students that included curriculum on the rejection of societal norms, and attacks on Christianity and the traditional family. Dunham’s peers considered her an “inquiring mind” and it is said that she grew to become part of the left’s intelligentsia.

*snip*

In part two of this special report we will review some of the president’s political actions and associations that likely reflect the influences he acquired from this strange and controversial cast of characters.

Beck puts the laser dot on his forehead...

Great video! The Kezia bigamy narrative is revealed to Beck's audience interspersed with video from Barry in 2004 at the Dem Nat Convention and Barry's claims the Selma marching in 1965 caused him to “be here” back in 1961.

Beck goes into how Bill Ayers Dad was a mentor to Barry. Beck goes into how even Factcheck exposed lies about the Ayers-Barry connection.

Is Beck still making fun of “Birfers”? At some point, he needs to sincerely apologize for that.

How long are we going to be recycling the news of 2007?

Those who by now do not know this stuff, don't want to know it. In the meantime, no one seems to have come up with a

PROGRAM
PLAN
or LEADERSHIP

Obama has wreaked horrible damage and set up pernicious policies that could dog us for a decade. These ridiculous side issues that form the basis of the Obama/Romney political campaigns have nothing to do with saving the republic.

It is entirely possible that Obama could be beaten in 2012. What happens after that?

PROGRAM,
PLAN
LEADER.

.

Ironic, isn’t it?

Obama’s food stamp program, part of the Department of Agriculture, is pleased to be distributing the greatest amount of food stamps ever in US history.
 
Meanwhile, the Park Service, also part of the Department of Agriculture, asks us to “Please Do Not Feed the Animals” because the animals may grow dependent and learn not to take care of themselves.

“Is Beck still making fun of “Birfers”? At some point, he needs to sincerely apologize for that. “

I stopped listening to Beck years ago when he went off on everyone who was questioning Obama’s past and called us all crazy. Now, all of a sudden, he’s decided to start looking into stuff and wants us all to jump on over to his “paid subscription” site? I don’t think so, Glenn!

Imagine how evil those that worked in Chicago and elsewhere to get this guy into the White House with his background, really are. They knew exactly the type creep they wanted to run the country.

Andrew Breitbart left us knowing more than he had time to disclose to us.

What did he know that we need to re-discover, document and publish?

Why are ALL of Obama’s important early documents forged?

Where was Obama during his “Lost Years?”

Why are there so few known Obama childhood friends?

How many of Obama’s childhood buddies are still alive?

Was Obama a FOREIGN student at Occidental, Columbia or Harvard?

Who wrote the checks for Obama’s education?

Where these question that Andrew Beitbart knew some of the answers to?

____________

To tie the above with some speculative food for thought, please indulge me, (but DO ponder the speculations), as I re-post one of my recently updated comments as follows:

A dictator, such as Obama, only has the power that the people give him.

Currently, at least 40 % of polled American voters are gladly willing to give Obama the necessary power to continue his arrogant dictatorship.

About 47 % of American voters pay NO Personal Federal Income Taxes. These voters are the “fair share” voter base for Dictator Obama. We, in the 53 %, then are paying this 47 % to vote for Obama by virtue of us paying taxes for ourselves AND them.

In this manner we are supporting the voters who vote for Obama, and they will vote to do so again in November.

Dictator Obama has designed Obama”care” to become active only AFTER he is to be re-elected, thus enabling THE NINE SUPREMES to delay ruling on the Constitutionality of the dictate of the individual mandate until Obama is once again the Illegal Foreign White House Occupier, (IFWHO).

The purpose of Dictator Baby-Doc Barack is simple: 1.) Regulate; 2.) Control; and 3.) Destroy. By his own count he has already achieved 60 % of his goals, according to the note he says he carries in his pocket.

Obama’s obvious arrogant and deep hatred of America could have only come from what he was taught in his childhood.

Since there are no known networks of childhood friends from Obama’s past, Obama was probably a member of a Marxist sleeper cell funded by wealthy men with a Marxist view of the World.

The lack of credible documents that has NOT been forged requires a long-term, highly skilled and well-funded support group.

Who the key members of Obama’s probable support group and probable sleeper cell were and are is well known to the Interpol, CIA and the FBI.

Will “Citizen Journalists” such as Breitbart Editor Joel Pollack be able to out-spy the latter two US tax-funded spy entities?

BTW, forget about the LAM, (Liberal Agenda Media), as they are saving their notes to write their tell-all Obama books after Obama has SAFELY retired back home in Kenya.

BTW, BTW, to all the doubters of the above speculations: what does your gut tell you?

______________________

The questions we ask
Are simple to say,
One wonders why they
Were not asked,
Back in the Day?

Meanwhile, the drumbeat of Dictator, (in his own mind), Obama grows louder:

regulate —— control —— destroy —— Regulate —— control —— destroy —— REgulate —— control —— destroy —— REGulate —— control —— destroy —— REGU

The fix was put in by the Insider's, their cronies, the establishment, to elect a black man to the presidency. Great way of a final push to gain many things that have been on their menu for so many years.
I'm sure Felix and Max Warburg, Lord Milner,the Rothschilds, Rockefellers,Schiffs,Morgans,Harrimans,Kuhn Loeb,,Colonel House,Senator Nelson Aldrich, just to name a few who for so long from the inner establishment have arranged for the 2008 event to happen.

No revolution can be successful without organization and money. The downtrodden masses usually provide little of the former and none of the latter. But Insiders at the top can arrange for both.
Through every major news paper that are owned by the establishment, cover was provide and bingo. 2008 was ripe to come to past.

I find it very interesting that Barack refers to himself as jr.

Nobody that is actually a second, II, refers to himself as jr.

His purported birth certificate lists him as Barack Hussein Obama II.
