Why Doesn’t Obama Care About Freedom?
Accuracy In Media ^ | June 26, 2009 | CLIFF KINCAID

If you recognize that Obama failed to vigorously and immediately support the pro-freedom demonstrators in Iran, take a look at his attitude toward those suffering under the Castro dictatorship.

An extraordinary editorial ran in the liberal Washington Post on Thursday, June 25, about the indifference of the Obama White House to the plight of those who believe in freedom just 90 miles from our shores. The editorial, "A Dissident Deflected," told the story of how the Obama Administration wouldn't issue a statement recognizing the plight of five human rights activists in Cuba until the Post itself inquired about the matter.

The five leaders of Cuba's pro-democracy movement were recipients of the National Endowment for Democracy's 2009 Democracy Award. It was expected that they would not be allowed by the Castro regime to travel from Cuba to the U.S. to accept their award. But it wasn't expected, at least by the Post, that the Obama White House would seem unconcerned about their struggle for freedom.

Your question makes no sense.

That’s an easy question to answer- dictators don’t believe in freedom.

If you look at the feudalist system,

this is what the elites want to impose here.

They, as the nobility, controlling and owning everything.
The peasants would own and control nothing. Not even to the point of being able to raise or hunt their own food “on the king’s land”.

The little people are too stupid and selfish to be free. What a nuisance that capitalism is, so messy and so inefficient. Some people actually get rich and others don’t. How unfair is that.

The elites know better and can do better leading society and telling the little people how to live. That’s all they talk about. In their penthouses and estates, over fine wine and cheese purchased and served to them and their guests by little people.

What do you mean he doesn’t care about freedom?

He cares deeply about freedom - and HE has all the freedom in the world!

Oh... they meant freedom for people OTHER than the Obamessiah.

Okay. He does not care about freedom (for folks other than himself) because he is a self-absorbed, narcissistic, megalo-maniacal racist who, far from being elected to the most powerful position in the world, should most likely have been institutionalized YEARS ago.

Why? Orwell answers:

We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
The object of persecution is persecution.
The object of torture is torture.
The object of power is power.
- "1984"

and this was written before Obama threw his support to the marxist president in Honduras!!

It is going to be a very long 4 years and the US will likely never be the same again.

Pray for our country!

Because he doesn’t want us to have any.

He’s not interested in freedom. He’s interested in power.

For him. He’s just another despot.

Obama doesn't care about freedom because he spent his youth in 3rd world hell holes attending madras's and getting brainwashed into Islam doctrine.

This is exactly why the president is suppose to be native born.

The founders of this country, some of the most brilliant men that ever lived in my opinion determined that it was CRITICAL that the president of the United State be a NATURAL BORN citizen.

They knew that only a NATURAL BORN citizen would always place the interests of the US above all others.

Obama was as much allegiance to the world as he does to the US, democracy, and freedom in general.

Obama spent his formative years living in 3rd world hell holes being indoctrinated into Islam and anti US propaganda. Does it really surprise you that he shows a lack of solidarity with freedom fighters in light of that?

Actually Obama shows allegiance to the Communist world, precious little to the U.S.
