I’ve Finally Had My Fill of the Obama BS
I don’t plan on doing political commentary on this blog, but I’ve had enough of Barack Obama and the sycophants who promote him. This isn’t for them. It’s for people whose minds still don’t glaze over when they hear his name.
No, it wasn’t building a miniature Parthenon as backdrop for Obama’s acceptance speech that put me over the edge. I know he isn’t a deity or the messiah. It wasn’t the gall of his campaign redesigning the presidential seal, either. I think it’s the sheer weight of so many “Christian” sources I see that lack even the slightest mental muscle to think about what this guy says, who he is, and who his alliances are with. Maybe these people are just apathetic, or they somehow have confused truth with Obama’s platitudes about the poor. I don’t know, but it has become absolutely emetic (“vomit inducing”).
Why am I hoping and praying Obama loses the election? Well, it’s not so much that I am a McCain fan (I have certain problems with some of his policies). Obama himself gives me plenty of reasons to vote for just about anyone else. There’s his marxism (about which he is unapologetic – and I’m glad he’s fairly transparent here). There’s his support for infanticide (he voted AGAINST banning the practice of killing babies who survived abortions). Then there’s his “if people don’t support me they must be racists” polemic. But What really irks me enough to post is his dishonesty about his relationships with ACORN (a “community organizing” group that has been caught a number of times falsifying voter registrations; Obama used to work for them training their volunteers) and William Ayers. Let’s stick to Ayers for now. Here are two short videos about who he is (video 1, video 2). And in case you think these are just biased conservative political ads, try this “conservative” source – US News & World Report – and its concise summary of why Obama’s relationship with Ayers is an issue in need of some honesty – and check out the “Just One Minute” link in the summary). Of course Obama’s own explanation shows his penetrating intellect and folksy honesty: “I didn’t really know him; he just lives in my neighborhood.” Right. It was from Ayers’ home that Obama first launched his senatorial campaign to start his political career in the nineties. Yeah, I ask people I don’t really know and who really aren’t friends if I can kick off important life-changing events from their living room and barbecue all the time. BS.

Thanks for your post. I am amazed at how few people are really paying attention to what he says or to his connections. Some I know plan to vote for Obama just because they “want a change” of parties. They might not like the change they get.

@SWRoadrunner: Yes; people don’t seem to realize that the government that gives you everything can then take everything away.
