Rapper Big Boi On Obama: Warns “I’m Not Pro-Govt…Our Freedoms Are Getting Taken Away”
The Gateway Pundit ^ | December 6, 2012 | Andrea Ryan

As rare as it is, it’s so refreshing to hear common sense come out of the entertainment industry. During an interview to discuss the release of his new album, rapper Big Boi made the following response when asked about the president:

“I’m not pro-government at all, I’m pro-people. Our freedoms are getting taken away every day with things that people aren’t aware of, like the [National Defense Authorization Act]. I don’t care who the president is–it ain’t just all about who’s black or who’s white or who’s Republican or Democrat, it’s about who is for the betterment of people, period. … I ain’t on nobody’s team, you feel me? I’m about the American people.”

Mr. Boi, respectfully, not only are they being taken away, they are being given away.

We are seeing a free people willingly trade their freedom for lies.

I’d rather have Big Boi as President. At least he’s pro-American.

Sounds encouraging, but let’s hear more specifics.

...”We are seeing a free people willingly trade their freedom for lies”...

Look at who voted to take away that freedom and you will see takers and secularists, not traditional Americans..This has been coming for a long time as, over the years, corrupt politicians worked hard to buy votes. Also, America was threatened on 9-11, but has been free of war on our mainland for most of our history..I am sorry to say this, but that fact may have blinded the eyes of people to the realities of human nature which constantly strives in some to enslave all others. ENVY is, perhaps the most powerful human emotion and the Democrats in America use it as their weapon. I, personally, believe there is a Hell in the afterlife and I believe justice will been done, if not here, then there.

These are the people who will scream loudest from inside the gulag. The rest of us won’t be able to raise our voices above our own sense of resignation, decades in the making.

Big Boi makes more sense than Little Man in the White House.

"If I am not for myself, who will be for me?"

The point of your rhetorical question is obvious to anybody who has spent time in the real world. Sadly, we are becoming fewer in number as the up and coming generations are force fed this "small world after all" crap from the earliest years, and end up believing that government will make everybody do "their fair share" resulting in everybody taking care of everybody else.

There is the line in the movie 300 where Xerxes entices the hunchback Ephialtes with the words, "Unlike the cruel Leonidas that asked you to stand, I ask only that you kneel."

We have largely become a nation of Ephialtes, willing to sell our souls for false hopes and empty promises.

We ain gone let this boy perform at Our Lord and Savior's concert. This guy is clearly an Uncle Tom, KKK-lovin', white man's boy, Steppin Fetchit wannabe, return of slavery, kill off the black folks, Raciss! /s

And now, in support of diversity, let me introduce PSY to perform a medley of hate-Goddam-America tunes. Accompanying him on the accordion is our surprise guest, Revrun Jeremiah Wright!

Listen to Payday Monsanto. He is rapper that knows what is going on!
And he has the talent to make his message entertaining...if not alarming.

Liberalism expertly exploits known flaws of the human psyche.

It is a man made virus of the human brain.

Whether or not there is a Hell or God or anything of that nature is troubling to me with regard to this matter.

If we say the evil of mankind will be punished in Hell or that God will save us or that on Judgment Day they will get theirs, what we are in effect saying is that we cannot defeat our enemies. I believe in God and Hell and Judgment Day, but to rely upon those to save us in the end is the strategy of a loser, as in one who has lost.

If a man wishes to be free, then he is going to have to defeat in an extremely convincing way those who would take that freedom, and they will come often.

All one needs to do to see this is to compare freedom to your home and the usurper to the criminal that invades it.

What do you do to that criminal who invades your home in the dead of night with ill intent? Do you tell him that he is going to burn in Hell? Do you tell him that God will save you from him in the end? Do you pull out your gun and send a very clear message to him and any other potential invading criminal just exactly what will happen when they try to victimize you.

Until people realize the stakes of this game that is being played and the tactics necessary to win, we are going to lose every step of the way.
