An enemy of this country was put in charge of it. HOW does that happen? Will this country survive? It's not looking good for those of us who love this Country, believe in the Constitution, and in limited government.
The article in 'American Thinker' (August 19, 2011) summarized what I knew about Obama before he was elected, but also documents what he has done since. I post the article here now as a reminder to some, and a wake up call to others...
The Anti-American President
By Boyd Richard Boyd
Obviously something is rotten on Pennsylvania Avenue; no intelligent American president would do the things Obama has done. There has been talk of his inexperience, incompetence, or just plain stupidity to explain his Bizarro-administration. However, Obama is not incompetent; he is an intelligent anti-American president. Obama is not a failure at his job -- his job is the failure of our country.
Liberty-minded folk have several reasons why we assume another person is incompetent rather than malicious. One reason is our belief that a person is "innocent until proven guilty"; another is the natural presumption others are similar to ourselves. Unfortunately, these ideas have been coupled with a pair of dangerously pragmatic moral equivalencies foisted upon us all: "Who am I to judge?" and "They couldn't possibly mean that." As long as there is any possibility that Obama is just in over his head and doesn't mean what he says and does, many will excuse him on those grounds.
Every American must judge Obama and his ideas and understand he does mean what he says, and realize there is no excuse, save one -- Barack Obama is an anti-American in thought and deed.
Obama gets dreams from his socialist father. His mother was a fellow traveler. Obama lived in anti-American Indonesia as a child. Later, granddad decided Obama needed a Communist mentor. O got into Harvard on the recommendation of anti-Semitic Khalid al Mansour, an adviser to Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal. In college O chose his friends carefully -- "the more politically active black students, foreign students, Chicanos, Marxist professors and structural feminists." As a professor he taught Marxist Saul Alinsky tactics, and as a constitutional scholar he believed that there are fundamental flaws in the Constitution, such as restraint on governmental power. As a community organizer and counsel he pushed sub-prime mortgages which helped buckle our economy.
He's a trench-mate with voter-fraudsters ACORN and quasi-commie SEIU. He had house parties and sat on boards with an unrepentant, revolutionary communist, who probably ghostwrote one of O's autobiographies. He attended the social-justice church of Jeremiah Wright, where he was preached at on collective salvation and black liberation. Illinois state senator and communism-lover Alice Palmer, picked O as her chief of staff. As a U.S. senator, he had the most leftist voting record. His wife's only source of American pride came in her 40s as a result of O's own success. He was endorsed by the Communist Party in 2004, and in 2008 Obama got CPUSA's endorsement again, basically running on the CPUSA platform. (And yes, CPUSA have endorsed him again for 2012!)
And this was before the campaign and presidency. Does his bio reflect incompetence or something more sinister? Does his journey sound like one of an all-American or an anti-American?
In his own words, during the campaign:
Sept, 17 2007 to SEIU: "[Y]our agenda's been my agenda[.]"
November 2007 to ACORN: "I've been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career."
December 2007 addressing ACORN and other community organizations: "[W]e're going to be calling all of you in to help us shape the agenda, We're going to be having meetings all across the country with community organizations so that you have input into the agenda for the next presidency of the United States of America."
January 5, 2008 to SEIU "I've been working with the SEIU before I was elected to anything ... We are going to paint the nation purple with SEIU. SEIU, I'm glad you are with me. Let's together change the country. SEIU! SEIU!"
January 17, 2008 "[I]f somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can, it's just that it will bankrupt them...under my plan of a cap-and-trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket."
May 16, 2008 in Oregon: "We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK...That's not leadership. That's not going to happen."
June 3, 2008 in St Paul Minnesota "This was the moment -- this was the time --when we came together to remake this great nation"
July 13, 2008 to La Raza: "[W]e rise and fall together as one people...And together, we won't just win an election -- we will transform this nation."
October 12, 2008 to Joe the Plumber: "I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody."
October 30, 2008 at the University of Missouri, Columbia: "We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America[.]"
How many Marxist groups will he share agendas with before it's apparent? How many times will he say he wants to change, remake, or fundamentally transform America before we believe he wants to?
Almost everything Obama says and does is a scripted, controlled, and choreographed event. The man causes relentless instability, yet it is all planned. We know where his ideas come from: the George Soros-funded, Hillary Clinton-founded Center for American Progress and Joel Rogers' Apollo Alliance with help from its ex-Weather Underground co-founder, among others.
SEIU president and Marxist Andy Stern and the AFL-CIO's Dick Trumka are/were two of the most frequent White House guests. Obama directs NASA's chief to perform Muslim outreach. The EPA will handle cap and trade after Congress said no. The borders won't be secured until O gets amnesty for millions of potential voters with no allegiance to America. O imposed a drilling ban for oil, then said the judge could fly a kite when the judge lifted the ban. Brazil purchased some of those rigs, and Obama wants to be a big consumer of Brazil's oil. His administration may have facilitated the murder of a border agent and is trying to suppress second-amendment rights, as a result.
His Tea Party mockery, the takeover of industries, the contortions of Obamacare, the slow response to BP's oil spill, the tens of thousands of new regulations, the aggressive deficit spending, the Fed's printing sprees, bowing to and borrowing from anti-Americans -- all are part of the blueprint. Even his petulance, arrogance, constant golfing, and "let them eat cake" attitude are part of the plan. Obama understands how grating such behavior is to any American who doesn't worship strongmen. His glaring at Netanyahu after throwing Israel under the bus, his browbeating the Supreme Court during the SOTU, and of course, his Mussolini-like poses with his chin touching the ceiling are all calculated to intimidate some into a cult of personality and alienate others. And he has done so much more.
Obama has never stood for individualism, capitalism, or liberty. Everything he does has the reek of statism, collectivism, and tyranny, but not because he is an incompetent bumbler -- though he may be in many areas, sans TOTUS -- it's because he is a statist and a collectivist and the citizens of our country naïvely gave the reins of power to a tyrant. To paraphrase the Wizard of Oz, an honest Obama would say to us, "Oh, no, my fellow world citizens, I'm a very good anti-American president. I'm just a very bad American president."

Editor, Times-Dispatch:
Each year I get to celebrate Independence Day twice. On June 30 I celebrate my independence day and on July 4 I celebrate America's. This year is special, because it marks the 40th anniversary of my independence.
On June 30, 1968, I escaped Communist Cuba and a few months later I was in the United States to stay. That I happened to arrive in Richmond on Thanksgiving Day is just part of the story, but I digress.
I've thought a lot about the anniversary this year. The election-year rhetoric has made me think a lot about Cuba and what transpired there. In the late 1950s, most Cubans thought Cuba needed a change, and they were right. So when a young leader came along, every Cuban was at least receptive.
When the young leader spoke eloquently and passionately and denounced the old system, the press fell in love with him. They never questioned who his friends were or what he really believed in. When he said he would help the farmers and the poor and bring free medical care and education to all, everyone followed. When he said he would bring justice and equality to all, everyone said "Praise the Lord." And when the young leader said, "I will be for change and I'll bring you change," everyone yelled, "Viva Fidel!"
But nobody asked about the change, so by the time the executioner's guns went silent the people's guns had been taken away. By the time everyone was equal, they were equally poor, hungry, and oppressed. By the time everyone received their free education it was worth nothing. By the time the press noticed, it was too late, because they were now working for him. By the time the change was finally implemented Cuba had been knocked down a couple of notches to Third-World status. By the time the change was over more than a million people had taken to boats, rafts, and inner tubes. You can call those who made it ashore anywhere else in the world the most fortunate Cubans. And now I'm back to the beginning of my story.
Luckily, we would never fall in America for a young leader who promised change without asking, what change? How will you carry it out? What will it cost America?
Would we?

Rush's comments about Obama saying that he has campaigned in 57 States...
RUSH: Hey, folks, you want to tweak the Drive-By Media with me right now? Want to participate in tweaking the Drive-By Media? You are aware, probably, that Barack Obama lost his bearings recently and said that he was going to campaign in all 57 states. You heard this? And everybody chalked it up to, "Well, he's tired." You know, this is a Dan Quayle moment. I mean, Dan Quayle goes out there and misspells potato, and we still get jokes about it. Barack Obama says he's gonna go out and campaign in 57 states, he was just tired, you know, it's been such a long campaign, he's been so many places, he probably thinks there are 57 states. Well, I have here a printout from a website called the International Humanist and Ethical Union. And here is how the second paragraph of an article on that website begins. "Every year from 1999 to 2005 the organization of the Islamic conference representing the 57 Islamic states presented a resolution to the United Nations commission on human rights called combating --" yes, H.R., get ready for the phone calls up there.
We're participating here in a tweak of the media. Obama said he's going to campaign in 57 states, and it turns out that there are 57 Islamic states. There are 57 Islamic states. "Every year from 1999 to 2005, the organization of the Islamic conference representing the 57 Islamic states," this is from the International Humanist and Ethical Union. And the title of the piece here is, "How the Islamic states dominate the UN human rights council," and there are 57 of them. So did Obama just lose his bearings, or was this a more telling slip, ladies and gentlemen? Obama's 57 states, not just a simple gaffe. He might have been thinking of the 57 Islamic states when he said he was going to campaign in all 57 states. (laughing) Can't wait 'til the Drive-Bys hear about this.

" Any thoughtful person who knows history and religion would be anti-Islam. Along with Communism, Nazism, and the Black Death, Islam has been responsible for more death and destruction on the face of the planet than just about anything else since the last asteroid impact. Islam was started by predators. It has spread by predation. It has lived off the decaying corpses of the civilizations it has destroyed. It is a vast, ancient sea of corruption, oppression, fanaticism, and ignorance lapping up against the shores of the present, kept alive by the fortuitous accident of living above huge reserves of petroleum."
