The Alienator-in-Chief

It can be hard to figure out the chameleon-like Obama. He talks a good game, but underneath you know he's up to something else entirely different from what he's saying, and it's not good. Obama reveals himself in his past speeches and associations, and in his twenty-year attendance at the Trinity United Church, whose pastor Jeremiah Wright espoused black liberation theology from the pulpit, telling his congregation, "God Bless America? "Naw, naw, naw. Not God Bless America. God Damn America! That's in the Bible." We know Obama from his public embrace of racist law professor Derrick Bell at Harvard, his refusal to prosecute baton-wielding Black Panthers who intimidated white voters, and from the direction of his current policies.

Amid all this. he has alienated an awful lot of people, especially those of us who believe that all men are created equal and stand equal before God. Race relations in this country are worse now than they've been since the 1960's. Instead of a nation governed by equality, mutual respect, and brotherly love we are a nation torn apart.

Obama ran on a platform of bipartisan unity. That was never his intention. There has been no bipartisan unity since he took office. Even Vice President Joe Biden (Jackass Joe), in his recent debate with Paul Ryan, made it quite clear there was going to be no bipartisan cooperation between the Obama administration and the Republicans. Not on the agenda. ObamaCare, for example, was rammed through Congress without a single Republican vote. Obama created a historical landmark of political alienation with that one.

A STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE When Obama campaigned in 2008, he proclaimed “I am running for president to tell the lobbyists in Washington that their days of setting the agenda are over. They have not funded my campaign. They won’t work in my White House.” Despite this promise, Obama hired over 50 lobbyists in his administration.

Now, self-serving Pres Obama has had a change of heart----he uses the US Treasury as an open checkbook for his supporters who are rewarded at taxpayers’ expense.

But wait ---Obama says he wants everyone to “play by the same rules.” (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

EXHIBIT A-—Obama vetoed the Canadian pipeline, causing a loss of thousands of construction jobs——that benefited his biggest financial supporters, Warren Buffett, who just happened to buy an interest in the railroad that will deliver the oil instead of the pipeline.

EXHIBIT B-—Obama’s Defense Department rejected a multibillion-dollar aircraft contract to a U.S. manufacturing company and instead awarded it to a Brazilian company in which the same fundraiser has an interest.

EXHIBIT C-—Another Obama fundraiser benefited from a $528 million taxpayer loan for Solyndra which promptly went bankrupt, leaving the taxpayers with massive losses(contrary to standard lending practices, Obama’s supporters, not the taxpayers, had the only claim to the firm’s assets. Can you say money laundering?). Not to mention other so-called “green companies” controlled by Obama supporters who received taxpayer loans and proceeded to go bust.

EXHIBIT D-—Obama halted Gulf oil drilling in violation of court orders. Do workers forced out of their jobs think he was playing by the rules?

EXHIBIT E-—Michelle Obama received a $100,000 raise at her Chicago nonprofit job shortly after then-Senator Obama obtained generous government assistance for her employer.......some might call this money laundering.

===========================================

When Obama ran for office in 2008, many people believed he was a brilliant academic who would lead to bring people together.

But a new book "Leading From Behind" by Richard Miniter, shows just the opposite. Miniter paints a picture of an Obama who doesn't lead at all, but instead is used as a pawn through which his many advisers push their own political agendas.

Take for example White House Senior Adviser Valerie Jarrett. President Obama takes credit for the killing of Osama bin Laden while he hides Jarrett's efforts to stop the operation three times before finally giving the green light. "

At the White House, Obama advisers were told to 'interrogate the data' to disprove that bin Laden was in the compound," Miniter writes. "Eventually, a 'war caucus' emerged with Leon Panetta, Hillary Clinton, and Robert Gates favoring action of some kind. Jarrett opposed the idea.

Jarrett worried about a backlash against the president if the operation failed, or even if it succeeded." Obama was willing to cave to Jarrett's "concerns" on multiple occasions until Hillary stepped in with full force to urge Obama to move forward with the bin Laden raid. But of course, Obama's eventual decision to lead from behind on the raid, didn't come without some "hard thinking."

On the fourth attempt to either capture or kill bin Laden, the intelligence was better than ever, yet as Miniter writes, Obama still had Jarrett's doubtful words in the back of his mind. (Excerpt) Read more at townhall.com ...
