Dinesh D'Souza was Right about Obama
American Thinker ^ | 01/31/2014 | Ed Lasky

Posted on 01/31/2014 8:41:25 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Dinesh D'Souza, the political commentator, author and movie-maker came under fire four years ago when he wrote a column for Forbes Magazine, "How Obama Thinks" that speculated President Obama saw the world as split in two: those nations who colonized and oppressed and the victim nations and people who were colonized and were the oppressed.

D'Souza expanded on this theme in his blockbuster documentary 2016: Obama's America that -- despite or maybe because of -- its being a huge hit was snubbed by the Academy Awards. However it did win D'Souza a federal indictment for behavior that, if proven, earned merely a misdemeanor charge when a donor to John Edwards engaged in the same alleged fundraising violation.

Was D'Souza right?

Barack Obama certainly does not care for Winston Churchill who did inherit imperialistic dreams from his ancestors as D'Souza speculated Obama inherited the anti-imperialistic dreams of his father. Churchill's bust was soon thrown out of the White House when Obama assumed office.

And he did engage in an apology tour for America's actions overseas over the years ; was the first American President to say that America was responsible for the 1953 coup in Iran and suggested some of that nation's ire towards America was rooted in that history.

But Obama may have also unwittingly tipped his hand -- as he often does when his mouth is not controlled by a teleprompter or by his handlers -- when he has talked about Israel.

A little history may be in order.

I never heard Dinesh D’Souza speak until I listened to his debate with Bill Ayers at Dartmouth last evening. He is excellent and articulate. No wonder he scares Obama and Hillary.

Here is a link for anyone who cares to listen to him.

Of the millions of people donating to politicians, Obama’s henchman at Justice pin points Dinesh’s donating to a republican candidate in NY who was sure to lose anyway?

The Obama/Holder cabal is so transparent, only fools can not see through them. The MSM has ignored the millions Obama received from foreign countries, especially from the Muslim countries of middle-east.

What is the last time Holder investigated any democrat?
WOuld’nt it be great if someone like Palin gets elected next president and will investigate these traitors.

$33 million gross isn’t what I would call a “huge hit”.

It will be hugely profitable relative to HOW MUCH WAS SPENT on the film.

O’Reilly the blowhard is interviewing Obama before the Superbowl. I wish someone could get to him, and suggest instead of asking the canned questions, ask Obama questions that reflect the man’s philosophy as D’Sousa and others have pointed out.

ASk him how he generally sees the world and America in the world. Is it true that he doesn’t consider us unique? Is it true that he doesn’t trust a free market system? Ask him why? Why not unleash free enterprise and energy exploration? ASk him why is he for wealth redistribution.

ASk him where he was the night of Benghazi? ASk him about his meetings with IRS officials.

I can think of hundreds of questions that will vette Obama that have never been asked.

He won’t. And he’ll come back the next week and ask everyone how did he do?

I’m telling you in advance O’Reilly, you did poorly if you don’t nail this guy, the same way you tried to nail George Bush. In fact, you were actually right in trying to get him to admit that he made a mistake about not enforcing our borders.

That Korean girl near the end who hates American hegemony...I wonder how much more she would like Chinese hegemony, because that’s where it’s going.

D'Souza ENLIGHTENS those that listen. The PROGRESSIVE LIBERAL LEFT cannot afford or tolerate that.

Too many enlightened Americans means the END to the LEFT'S reign of silliness.

It is in its genre.

The Nuclear Option: Meet Preet – Obama’s Hatchet Man Against Filmmakers

Charles Hurt 31 Jan 2014 446 post a comment
Meet Preet Bharara, the U.S. prosecutor who last week indicted anti-Obama filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza on campaign finance charges. Mr. Bharara is the snapping jaws of Attorney General Eric H. Holder’s junkyard attack dog and the velvet fixer of President Obama’s thorniest political problems.
