Back to Hussein's speech.
You can't win a war on terror. There is no controlling power over all terrorist which can surrender or be defeated. Hussein lacks even a basic understanding of what terrorism is.
"The United States of America did not choose to fight a war in Afghanistan." Are you people really that fucking stupid? Do you think American troops just happened to stumble across the ocean, into Afghanistan, and start getting into firefights?
Cult of Personality is not just about Hussein Obama 1/2, it's even more about those of you who believe he is the Messiah. He has outright shit in your faces and you still cream your panties every time this asshole opens his mouth. I have the clips where people say that if you disagree with Hussein you are racist. I'll be posting them.
Hussein criticized Bush for not sending enough troops to finish the job, so what does he do? He sends fewer troops than the military has requested.
Hussein says he will start to bring the troops home from Iraq in July 2011. Is he keeping the troops there longer than required in order to use their return home as a campaign stunt to get re-elected? Probably so.
Meanwhile the National Security Advisor says the troops in Iraq are "going to be in the region for a long time." No shit? Other administration officials say "there isn't a deadline" and "we are not talking about an exit strategy or a drop dead deadline".
And how do liberals justify the Nobel Peace Prize winner Hussein Obama the First and the Second justify sending more troops to other countries to kill people? Let's talk about that.
"Whatever we are doing over there, it's working." What? Just since The Messiah was elected or was it working when W. Bush was president?
Another idiot writes the Hussein has decided to "discontinue" the war. He's not discontinuing the war, the Messiah is sending more troops. How fucking delusional can you fuckers be! The idiot then says the U.S. can not change its foreign policy every 8 years. Why not? Isn't "change" exactly what you voted for? Isn't changing the war in Iraq exactly what you voted for? WHAT THE FUCK!
We can't withdraw the troops, what would other countries think. Oh fuck me!
27 DEC 09: (time 34:31): COP #002. click here for streaming MP3 or right click here to save the file to your computer: He won a Nobel Prize for things he might do in the future. How Messiah is that!
1 + 1 = 3
That is Messiah math! How are those corporate bailouts working for you?
The Messiah is sending more troops to Afghanistan. And who told you this would happen? It was me, The Great One Himself! HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES DID I TELL YOU HUSSEIN OBAMA IS NOT A PEACENIK! For those of you who are "surprised" by this, are you surprised when you take a shower and get wet?
Let's read what Hussein Obama the First and the Second says about Afghanistan in the Blueprint For Change (which I actually read). And I'll say it again, Hussein Obama 1/2 is going to send troops into Pakistan. Just watch. Meanwhile no one is saying anything about Iraq. Not one troop has come home yet. It's been a year. Not one permanent reduction of troops in Iraq.
We will now analyse the Hussein Obama 1/2 speech about sending more troops to Afghanistan.
Notice how many times he mentions Pakistan. In fact, Pakistan is mentioned more than Afghanistan.
Also notice how a week or two after the speech there was an attempt to blow up an airplane. Eight years, not terrorist attacks. Hussein gives a speech on how terrorism still threatens us. Suddenly there is a terrorist attack.
The most dangerous place in the world for American citizens.
How in the fuck is the government of the U.S. going to prevent terrorist from getting into Pakistan! We can't stop people from coming into the U.S. from Mexico - but we are going to prevent terrorist from entering Afghanistan and Pakistan? ARE YOU PEOPLE FUCKING STUPID!
It sound more like 'Nam every day.
We are going to help Pakistan weather their economic crisis. How? We don't have any money? But we are going to give Pakistan $1.5 billion every year for the next 5 years. And notice the liberal mind: money strengthens democracy. Really? We will create "opportunity zones" to "bring hope" to Pakistan. I'm fucking speechless. This is a "down payment" on our future. What is a down payment? It's the payment that comes before additional payments. So we are going to be paying even more in the future? Great . . .
Afghanistan needs lawyers. Yea, that's gonna do it.
The government is Afghanistan is corrupt and fighting an illicit drug market. Hey, just like the government of the U.S.
In Hussein's world sending more troops is not "staying the course".
Hussein thinks he is going to measure the growth of illicit narcotics production in Afghanistan. You can't measure something that is illicit! How fucking stupid are you?
25 OCT 09: (time 34:31): COP #001. click here for streaming MP3 or right click here to save the file to your computer: If you help him, he's gonna help you. Oh fucking yea... Welcome to the first edition of Cult Of Personality. He is the Messiah. He is the first affirmative action president. He has a Nobel Peace Prize for things he might do in the future. Cult of personality! Drink the kool-aid! He knows what you need to be. He is the smiling face on your TV! Obama math: $11.7 trillion debt is fiscal responsibility. Children are being taught to sing songs to Hussein Obama.
Why do I refer to King Hussein the First and the Second? Because he is the first affirmative action president and the second coming of Jesus. Hussein's qualifications to be President: He was a Senator for 2 years and he was an unemployed lawyer (community organizer). Hussein can not state that he has not benefited from affirmative action. If he were to say that he would be considered an Uncle Tom by a large portion of the black population.
The only value of the political left to date has been providing a watch on the right and providing a watch on religion and an outlet for atheism. Now that Hussein the 1st & 2nd is King the media is ignoring all the things he is doing and we are seeing the emergence of the Religious Left.
Zero troops have been withdrawn from Iraq. More troops are sent to Afghanistan.
He is handing out "ethics wavers" for people in his cabinet and staff. What the fuck is an "ethics waver" anyhow? In order to "wave" someone's "ethics" that person receiving the waver must have done something Hussein believes to be unethical, or else there would be no need to "wave" the "ethics". This is your fucking hope and change?
The media is acting like the war in Iraq is over.
One of the reasons you idiots electing Hussein is because he "talk pretty". Listen to him talk. "Ummm" is one of his favourite words.
Is Obama an enlightened being? Spiritual wise ones say: This sure ain't no ordinary politician. You buying it? By Mark Morford. Obama isn't really "one of us". No he isn't. Obama didn't get elected "merely" because many people want to have sex with him, no there is more too him than that. It's not "merely" his fresh ideas like the war in Iraq or $11.7 trillion debt. It's not "merely" the fact that he's black and so many white people feel guilt over slavery. No, it's something much more than all that.
Hussein is a "Lightworker". Say it with me - cult of personality. Oh yea, these people are "spiritual" not "religious" as if there is some fucking difference. You are all idiots. Obama is going to help usher in a "new way of being on the planet". WHAT THE FUCK, OVER?
Hussein is going to "help us evolve". Hussein is like JFK and MLK. JFK was "at odds with" the war machine. What? Have you ever read a history book asshole?
Hussein has more merchandising than the Beatles.
All praise the Messiah!
For another take on Obama as a Lightworker visit: "Is Obama an enlightened being?"
Spiritual wise ones say: This sure ain't no ordinary politician. You buying it? By Mark Morford.
Friday, June 6, 2008
I find I'm having this discussion, this weird little debate, more and more, with colleagues, with readers, with liberals and moderates and miserable, deeply depressed Republicans and spiritually amped persons of all shapes and stripes and I'm having it in particular with those who seem confused, angry, unsure, thoroughly nonplussed, as they all ask me the same thing: What the hell's the big deal about Obama?
I, of course, have an answer. Sort of.
Warning: If you are a rigid pragmatist/literalist, itchingly evangelical, a scowler, a doubter, a burned-out former '60s radical with no hope left, or are otherwise unable or unwilling to parse alternative New Age speak, click away right now, because you ain't gonna like this one little bit.
Barack Obama isn't really one of us. Not in the normal way, anyway.
This is what I find myself offering up more and more in response to the whiners and the frowners and to those with broken or sadly dysfunctional karmic antennae - or no antennae at all - to all those who just don't understand and maybe even actively recoil against all this chatter about Obama's aura and feel and MLK/JFK-like vibe.
To them I say, all right, you want to know what it is? The appeal, the pull, the ethereal and magical thing that seems to enthrall millions of people from all over the world, that keeps opening up and firing into new channels of the culture normally completely unaffected by politics?
No, it's not merely his youthful vigor, or handsomeness, or even inspiring rhetoric. It is not fresh ideas or cool charisma or the fact that a black president will be historic and revolutionary in about a thousand different ways. It is something more. Even Bill Clinton, with all his effortless, winking charm, didn't have what Obama has, which is a sort of powerful luminosity, a unique high-vibration integrity.
Dismiss it all you like, but I've heard from far too many enormously smart, wise, spiritually attuned people who've been intuitively blown away by Obama's presence - not speeches, not policies, but sheer presence - to say it's just a clever marketing ploy, a slick gambit carefully orchestrated by hotshot campaign organizers who, once Obama gets into office, will suddenly turn from perky optimists to vile soul-sucking lobbyist whores, with Obama as their suddenly evil, cackling overlord.
Here's where it gets gooey. Many spiritually advanced people I know (not coweringly religious, mind you, but deeply spiritual) identify Obama as a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being who has the ability to lead us not merely to new foreign policies or health care plans or whatnot, but who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet, of relating and connecting and engaging with this bizarre earthly experiment. These kinds of people actually help us evolve. They are philosophers and peacemakers of a very high order, and they speak not just to reason or emotion, but to the soul.
The unusual thing is, true Lightworkers almost never appear on such a brutal, spiritually demeaning stage as national politics. This is why Obama is so rare. And this why he is so often compared to Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., to those leaders in our culture whose stirring vibrations still resonate throughout our short history.
Are you rolling your eyes and scoffing? Fine by me. But you gotta wonder, why has, say, the JFK legacy lasted so long, is so vital to our national identity? Yes, the assassination canonized his legend. The Kennedy family is our version of royalty. But there's something more. Those attuned to energies beyond the literal meanings of things, these people say JFK wasn't assassinated for any typical reason you can name. It's because he was just this kind of high-vibration being, a peacemaker, at odds with the war machine, the CIA, the dark side. And it killed him.
Now, Obama. The next step. Another try. And perhaps, as Bush laid waste to the land and embarrassed the country and pummeled our national spirit into disenchanted pulp and yet ironically, in so doing has helped set the stage for an even larger and more fascinating evolutionary burp, we are finally truly ready for another Lightworker to step up.
Let me be completely clear: I'm not arguing some sort of utopian revolution, a big global group hug with Obama as some sort of happy hippie camp counselor. I'm not saying the man's going to swoop in like a superhero messiah and stop all wars and make the flowers grow and birds sing and solve world hunger and bring puppies to schoolchildren.
Please. I'm also certainly not saying he's perfect, that his presidency will be free of compromise, or slimy insiders, or great heaps of politics-as-usual. While Obama's certainly an entire universe away from George W. Bush in terms of quality, integrity, intelligence and overall inspirational energy, well, so is your dog. Hell, it isn't hard to stand far above and beyond the worst president in American history.
But there simply is no denying that extra kick. As one reader put it to me, in a way, it's not even about Obama, per se. There's a vast amount of positive energy swirling about that's been held back by the armies of BushCo darkness, and this energy has now found a conduit, a lightning rod, is now effortlessly self-organizing around Obama's candidacy. People and emotions and ideas of high and positive vibration are automatically drawn to him. It's exactly like how Bush was a magnet for the low vibrational energies of fear and war and oppression and aggression, but, you know, completely reversed. And different. And far, far better.
Don't buy any of it? Think that's all a bunch of tofu-sucking New Agey bulls-- and Obama is really a dangerously elitist political salesman whose inexperience will lead us further into darkness because, when you're talking national politics, nothing, really, ever changes? I understand. I get it. I often believe it myself.
Not this time.
Ready? It goes likes this:
Questions no one in the media has the balls to ask King Hussein:
1. When are you going to withdraw the troops from Iraq and why haven't you starting doing it?
2. Have you cancelled all the government contacts with Haliburton? Why not?
Transcript of Hussein Obama's inauguration speech, along with comments by me.
My fellow citizens, I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.
Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because we the people have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebears, and true to our founding documents.
By this does he mean the founding documents that are "fundamentally flawed"? Is he talking about the "living documents" in which he finds the notion of a "right to aborting" yet is unable to locate the part about the right to bear arms?
So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.
That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.
"Network of violence and hatred?" But I thought we were going to be friends with the terrorists. I thought it was going to be group hugs all around.
Ah yes, "greed and irresponsibility" but only on the part of "some". And now the government is coming to punish those people. Hussein will punish them by bailing out their failing businesses. Hussein will punish them by giving money to the automobile companies so the United Auto Workers can keep their jobs making low quality jobs, and more importantly, continue to vote Democrat. Yes, a few have been greedy and irresponsible - Hussein is going to make all of us pay the price for the actions of a few.
Health care is costly partially due to government interference. School fail entirely due to government interference. Hussein's cure will be more interference.
As for energy - the answer, as I've said over and over, is nuclear power. You aren't going to see any of that allowed however.
These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.
America's decline is inevitable. No empire can last forever. Eventually the universe will come to an end. As for the next generation, all they do is sit around staring at facebook all day. I doubt most of them have sights to lower.
Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.
Remember how he told you "change" and "hope" were coming? How he was going to fix everything? Well, maybe not. And not easily, we might have to put off those tax cuts, or even raise taxes. And not in a short span of time. It might take more than 4 years even. He might need a second term.
On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.
On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.
Oh yes, Hussein has set aside all of that stuff. He still hates white people, rich people, successful people and rich white successful people, but he is ending the petty grievances.
As for "false promises", he did say he would begin withdrawing the troops from Iraq "immediately" upon taking office. I wonder how that will go.
We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.
Scripture? What the fuck? Another religious nut.
When he says "all are equal" that is code for socialism. Trust me. All are not equal. There is no equal. Every person is different, unique. There is no equal.
During the time I am earning money to pay my taxes I am essentially a slave.
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted - for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.
And it's these very risk-takers, doers and makers that Hussein is going to punish when he begins his rampage to "spread the wealth".
For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.
For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.
They did that for us? For me? I should send a thank-you card.
For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sanh.
Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.
If we are greater than the differences of wealth, why does Hussein seek to "spread the wealth?"
This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.
"Remaking America." Oh yea . . . That's what we need.
For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. All this we will do.
No, the state of the economy calls for the government to get out of the way. Let businesses fail when they need to fail. Let free trade flourish. Let people who work, discover and create reap the benefits.
What is the "rightful place" of science? This is code for "believe in global warming". As for alternate fuel, if the government stopped trying to regulate and manage alternate fuel development it would progress much faster.
As far as schools, colleges and universities - they are beyond help. Hussein has bought the vote of students with lies of a free education and the votes of teachers by supporting the unions. With the indoctrination of the students the future of the U.S. begins a decline.
Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions - who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.
What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works - whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. Those of us who manage the public's dollars will be held to account - to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day - because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.
Government doesn't work. If it worked we wouldn't have these problems. Look at all the money poured into welfare. We still have poor people (who own ipods, iphones, plasma TVs & cars). Look at all the money poured into Iraq & Afghanistan. We still have troops over there and haven't found Bin Ladden yet.
The government isn't suppose to help families find jobs. That's not in the Constitution. The government isn't suppose to provide care they can afford or a dignified retirement. That's not in the Constitution. That is the job of the individual. That is the responsibility Hussein is talking about. He likes using the word responsibility, but the application eludes him.
Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control - and that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous. The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our gross domestic product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on our ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart - not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.
Oh yes, without a "watchful eye", otherwise known as government regulation. That's really worked well so far. Not to mention all those government bail outs.
And what the hell does "our ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart" mean?
As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our founding fathers ... our found fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience's sake. And so to all the other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more.
A charter which Hussein says is flawed.
We are not suppose to lead the world. You can't find "lead the world" anyplace in the Constitution.
Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.
We are the keepers of this legacy. Guided by these principles once more, we can meet those new threats that demand even greater effort - even greater cooperation and understanding between nations. We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan. With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the specter of a warming planet. We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.
We will "apologize for our way of life" because that is what global warming is all about. Stupid hippies who feel guilty because we have running water and electricity and steady food supply. They deal with their guilt by condemning our way of life and seeking to shut down our prosperity.
For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus - and non-believers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace.
Unless you hate white people, rich people, people who work for a living, people who didn't vote Democrat or single white men who have no children and a job. It's okay to hate them.
To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect. To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West - know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy. To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.
"Mutual respect." Yea, with people who think an invisible man lives in the sky. Mutual respect with people who will kill you for writing a book or drawing a picture of their prophet. Hussein is clearly stupid.
As for clinging to power thru deceit, Hussein told some whopper size lies to get elected. Let's see how that works out for him.
To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to the suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.
Yes, and we will be paying for all this as well. My tax money will help farms flourish and waters flow.
Consuming resources . . . Like that nice car you are riding around in Hussein? Oh that's right, walking is only for us common people.
As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains. They have something to tell us, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages. We honor them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service; a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves. And yet, at this moment - a moment that will define a generation - it is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.
For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter's courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent's willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.
In other words, Americans are selfless, giving, charitable humans who reach out to others in need. And this is why we need more government programs to help the needy.
As I've said before, who aren't churches feeding the homeless? Why is my tax money required for that? Churches have buckets of money & they don't pay taxes. Hussein is a man of faith. Let's see his church put out and his government get out of my pocket.
Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.
Our only duty to the world is to stay out of their internal affairs and not engage in wars of aggression.
This is the price and the promise of citizenship.
This is the source of our confidence - the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.
More God shit . . .
This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed - why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent Mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath.
More references to race. Hussein is big on the race thing isn't he?
So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. In the year of America's birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:
"Let it be told to the future world ... that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive...that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet (it)."
Hussein, you are not George Washington. Just fucking stop.
America, in the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.
Thank you. God bless you. And God bless the United States of America.
And more God shit. I thought the religious right lost this election.
What follows are two articles I got from online souces after the inauguration.
The first one, I don't recall the source. You can find it if you think it's important. The second come from the Times Online.
Again, my comments are included.
When Barack Obama steps up to the podium to deliver his inaugural address, one man standing anonymously in the crowd will be paying especially close attention. With his cropped hair, five o'clock shadow and boyish face, he might look out of place among the dignitaries, though as co-author of the speech this man has more claim than most to be a witness to this moment of history.
Awwww, he's so cute. His boyish face and all. This is journalism?
Jon Favreau, 27, is, as Obama himself puts it, the president's mind reader. He is the youngest chief speechwriter on record in the White House, and, despite such youth, was at the centre of discussions of the content of today's speech, one which has so much riding on it.
Hussein has a speech writer? I though he could talk pretty all by himself.
For a politician whose rise to prominence was largely built upon his powers as an orator, Obama is well versed in the arts of speech-making. But today's effort will tower over all previous ones.
Stop the press! "For a politician whose rise to prominence was largely built upon his powers as an orator . . ." Finally, someone gets it. Yes, his rise to power is build almost entirely upon his ability to talk pretty. He hasn't done anything. Ever.
It is not just that Obama has set an extremely high bar by invoking the inaugural speeches of Abraham Lincoln as his inspiration - admitting to feeling "intimidated" when he read them. It is also that, as he begins his term with the US in an economic crisis and two wars, he knows he needs to kick start his presidency with a soaring rhetoric that both moves and motivates the American people.
He isn't Lincoln. Let us hope he isn't Lincoln . . .
The tone of the speech could be decisive in determining how the public responds to his first 100 days, as Franklin Roosevelt's famous line "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself" helped to determine his.
He isn't FDR. Let us hope he isn't FDR . . .
Obama aides have let it be known that a key theme will be restoring responsibility - both in terms of accountability in Washington and the responsibility of ordinary people to get involved. Rahm Emanuel, Obama's chief of staff, talks of a "culture of responsibility" that would "not just be asked of the American people; its leaders must also lead by example."
The responsibility of ordinary people to get involved? That would be the free public service I keep warning you is coming. You think I'm making this up don't you.
Hearing a Democrat talk about responsibility is just killer.
In composing the high notes of the speech, Obama has leant on Favreau, whom he discovered almost by chance four years ago when the younger man was working on John Kerry's failed presidential bid. "Favs" has since studied Obama's speech patterns and cadences with the intensity of a stalker. He memorised the 2004 speech to the Democratic national convention which first brought Obama into the limelight. He is said to carry Obama's autobiography, Dreams From My Father, wherever he goes. As a result, last November when Favreau sat down to write the first draft of the inaugural address, he could conjure up his master's voice as if an accomplished impersonator.
Favreau carries Husseins autobiography with him wherever he goes? This a fucking cult of personality. Don't drink the kool-aid.
His master's voice? His master? His fucking master?! Cult of personality.
That skill had been put to almost daily use in the 18 months of brutal campaigning on the presidential trail. Favreau would be up most nights until 3am, honing the next day's stump speeches in a caffeine haze of espressos and Red Bull energy drinks, taking breaks to play the video game Rock Band. He coined a phrase for this late-night deadline surfing: "crashing".
He crashed his way through all Obama's most memorable speeches. He wrote the draft of one that helped to turn Iowa for Obama while closeted in a coffee shop in Des Moines. For the presidential election, he wrote two speeches: one for a victory, one for defeat. When the result came through, he emailed his best friend: "Dude, we won. Oh my God."
The tension between such youthful outbursts and his onerous role has sometimes cost the 27-year-old. In December, pictures of him and a friend mocking a cardboard cut-out of Hillary Clinton at a party, Favreau's hand on her breast, were posted on Facebook to his huge embarrassment.
On facebook . . . That is just totally lame. And you do realize that Hussein is going to surround himself with people just as immature. Hussein is going to ask for their advice. Hussein might even take it.
Obama is an accomplished writer in his own right, and the process of drafting with his mind reader is collaborative. The inaugural speech has shuttled between them four or five times, following an initial hour-long meeting in which the president-elect spoke about his vision for the address, and Favreau took notes on his computer.
Favreau then went away and spent weeks on research. His team interviewed historians and speech writers, studied periods of crisis, and listened to past inaugural orations. When ready, he took up residence in Starbucks in Washington and wrote the first draft. The end result will be uttered on the steps of the Capitol.
I thought Starbucks is evil.
Obama's mind reader has crashed his way through yet another deadline.
In the historic vastness of the moment, the unique and unprecedented nature of the event, there was always a risk that the message itself would be overshadowed. At the swearing-in of America's first African-American President, amid crowds on a scale never witnessed before in Washington, and in all the usual pomp and pageantry of a presidential inauguration, the great set-piece inaugural speech - even from a highly accomplished orator - was in danger of being eclipsed.
Yes, he's black. We noticed. You can let it go now.
But this was Barack Obama, now President Barack Obama, and if anyone's oratory can rise to even the highest occasion, it is surely his.
Yes, because he talk pretty. Notice that this article and the one before it are about the fact that he talk pretty. This is big news. This is journalism. Someone talks pretty. That is a news story.
And yet, perhaps because the US is confronting its gravest set of circumstances in at least a generation, and perhaps because of the weight of expectations of all those millions of people waiting for a touch of the magic of his famed rhetoric, this was not an occasion on which his oratory soared.
There were few truly memorable pieces of phraseology - no Kennedy-esque, or Rooseveltian quotations for the ages.
He isn't JFK. He isn't FDR. Get over it.
He laboured hard to echo the tone and cadence of his biggest campaign performances. And there was more than a hint of a self-conscious echo - distractingly - of the speeches of his hero and fellow Illinoisan, Abraham Lincoln.
He's still not Lincoln.
The language in particular sounded decidedly 19th century in parts - all those commands to "know" some or other intent of US policy, all those glancing biblical references.
Yes, the invisible man in the sky did come up a few times.
But it wasn't up to Lincoln's standards - which perhaps is asking too much. In fact, it may not have been really memorable at all. It's unlikely that most people will remember a phrase from it a few weeks from now, let alone a century. In fairness it was a speech more obviously measured to the practical immensity of the immediate challenges. It was directed at two audiences: a hopeful but anxious one at home, and an uncertain but hopeful one overseas.
To the global audience, Mr Obama signalled, perhaps more sharply than expected, the different path he intends to take from that of his predecessor.
Yes, sending more troops to Afghanistan and invading Pakistan will be "different" than invading Iraq.
In remarks that presaged important policy announcements in the next few days, President Obama indicated that the way he prosecutes the war on terrorism will change markedly from George W. Bush's approach.
"As for our common defence, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals." In the next few days he is expected to order the eventual closure of the Guantánamo Bay prison camp and to bar harsh interrogation treatment of detainees.
"Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expediency's sake. And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more."
And though Mr Obama warned terrorists that the US would pursue and defeat them, and he promised to disengage from Iraq and achieve victory in Afghanistan, perhaps most striking was the distinction between Mr Obama's inaugural tone and that of Mr Bush's second inauguration four years ago.
Achieve victory in Afghanistan. Yea right. "Mission accomplished."
Hussein will look really good in that flight suit.
There was no reference yesterday to committing the US to the eradication of tyranny in the world. Instead, Mr Obama contented himself with warning tyrants that they were on "the wrong side of history".
But the bulk of his speech, and his focus, was on the domestic challenges facing his Administration. All new presidents like to convey the message that the country is in desperate need of a new direction, even when things are going swimmingly. But no one seriously questions the scale of the economic mess that now confronts the US and the loss of national self-confidence is almost palpable.
Mr Obama promised that an activist Government would move quickly on a massive stimulus programme of public spending. But he asked for patience from the American people, warning that it would take time for measures to work.
Of course it will take time. Eight years, and then another four years to begin recovering from the damage he does.
Praise Change!
Praise Hope!
Praise the Hope for the Change of the Change of the Hope!
Praise Obama!
All I have to do here is the King Hussein speak for himself. As far as I can tell everything King Hussein has done and will do is driven by his hatred of two things. Rich people and white people.
Oh wait, I forgot, black people can't be racist. Only white people can be racist.
Now that I think about it, maybe this is another example of how white people are superior. After all if nobody can be racist except for white people, isn't this just one more thing that only we white people are capable of doing? Isn't this just one more example of how we white people are capable of doing more things than the other races?
Or maybe black people are capable of being racist. They're just too stupid to know their racist.
Or, here's a concept, maybe most people, totally regardless of their skin colour, actually aren't racist. Maybe the racists are actually few and far between. Maybe it's just the racists who get positions of power, who get their faces on television and their quotes in newspapers - maybe it's those racists who give the impression that racism is running rampant. And maybe they like the impression that racism is running rampant because they can use it to scare people.
Just one more thing Adolf Hitler and Hussein Obama have in common. Hitler scared his voting block with "the jews are coming for you." Obama is scaring his voting block with "the rich white people are coming for you."
"Black America will wake up." For those of you out there who are black, do you not find this condescending? And if you don't find this condescending, why not?
His grandmother is a "typical white person". Can you imagine what would happen if I, a white man with a job, went on national television and said - in any context whatsoever - the phrase "typical black person"? There would be a fury of outrage. It would be the end of the world. I would be accused of being a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I would be called a Nazi. I would be called racist, sexist and homophobic.
"There is a reaction that don't go away"? Who the fuck taught this guy English? Or is that ebonics?
Another example of how liberals always manage to find things in documents that don't actually exist. "God damn America" is in the Bible? I think you would be hard-pressed to find the phrase "God damn America" in the Bible. Just as there is no right to an abortion in the Constitution there is no God damning of America in the Bible. These people are fucking delusional. They are having hallucinations.
Yes the white people invented the HIV virus as a way to kill off all the black people. First point, how the hell does the HIV virus know what colour you are? Second point, if we white people invented this to kill off all black people why the hell didn't we give ourselves the vaccine? Third point, if we are smart enough to create HIV to kill the black people isn't that further evidence of our superiority?
As I've often said, the problem with saying "the white man keeps us down" is that the white man can only keep you down if the white man is more powerful than you. No man can be "kept down" unless he consents to being kept down.
Notice how King Hussein says that he can sit at the lunch counter and order as long as he can pay. Then notice that he takes care of the whole "as long as I can pay" part. Here comes the redistribution of wealth.
The Supreme Court never investigated the issues of redistribution of wealth? You know why, because redistribution of wealth is not what the government is supposed to be doing. The founding fathers did not give us a constitutional government, they did not give us a representative republic form of government, so that it could engage in the redistribution of wealth. They gave us this government so it would protect our rights. The notion that somebody has a right to have wealth redistribution to them from somebody else who has earned that wealth is nonsensical.
What the fuck is economic justice? Economic justice means receiving payment for what you've done and not receiving payment what you haven't done. Economic justice would be if the parasites in our society died off instead of having money transferred to them, by the government, from people who actually generate wealth.
The Supreme Court did not break free from the constraints placed in the Constitution by the founding fathers? It's not fucking supposed to break free from the constraints. That's why they're called constraints. The founding fathers put the constraints into the Constitution for a reason. So that the courts could not break free of them and fuck things up. What the hell kind of muddled thinking is this?
Oh, I know. It's liberal dumb-fuck Democrat thinking.
Holy shit! The Constitution doesn't say what the government must do on your behalf? This is the entire problem with the liberal mentality, the dependent mentality, they need to have the government do things for you. The notion these people have that the government exists to do things on your behalf. This is completely wrong. The government does not exist to do things on your behalf, the government exist to leave you the hell alone. The government exists to make sure other people leave you alone.
We are suffering from the lack of redistributive change. Yes because the government of this country is not already investing enough time and money in shifting economic resources from people who produce to the parasites who do nothing other than voting Democrat. We need more redistributive change. That is what's going to make things better.
Maybe he's showing his bias. Or maybe showing us how stupid he is. Keep in mind that this is the man who's going to pull us through the "worst economic downturn since the Great Depression".
And the video is right about this, what you hear is not a discussion about whether redistribution of wealth is right or wrong, it's a discussion about how you achieve redistribution of wealth. It never occurs to King Hussein to ask the question "should I be redistributing wealth" or "is the redistribution of wealth either economically or ethically the right thing to do". It's simply a matter of asking "how do I separate money from the people who earned it and give that money to people who haven't earned it but will vote for me".
King Hussein doesn't want to punish us, he just wants to spread the wealth around.
That and he wants to be compared to FDR.
When he's not being compared to MLK.
Really. Do I need to explain this?
"If I help him, he's going to help me." He's going to put gas in her car and pay her mortgage. I can't make this shit up. You fucking stupid people have been so snowed over by this man.
Does Peggy think Obama is going to pump her gas? Does she really think Obama is going to pay for her home?
"It was the most memorable time of my life." I suggest I need no further evidence that Obama supporters are worthless pieces of shit who should be removed from the planet. The "most memorable" time of her life, of her whole fucking life (an evidently worthless life) was listening to Obama talk?! That was it? That was the most memorable moment of her life? Listening to some piece of shit politician blow hot air? What a fucking worthless waste of protoplasm this bitch is.
I suggest that if all the people who voted for Obama were rounded up and killed it would have no detrimental effect on the economy, quality of life or the progress of the human race.
"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."
And what the hell exactly does that mean? The obvious and immediate comparison that comes to mind is Adolf Hitler's brownshirts in Nazi Germany. That was his civilian security force which helped him to assume power of the government after he had been lawfully elected Chancellor of Germany. I tossed that in because people seem to forget that Adolf Hitler was elected Chancellor of Germany. The stupid people in the United States (by stupid I mean Democrats) have this idea that if we have "democracy" somehow or another that prevents dictatorship. It doesn't.
This civilian national security force of his, whatever it turns out to be, is going to be just as well-funded as the United States military. So if I understand him right, and remember the reason we elected Hussein to be the next king of the United States is because he talk pretty, therefore I must be understanding it right because I've listened to this over and over again. I hear the words clearly, he's saying that he is going to double military spending. His civilian national security force is going to be just as well-funded as the military. There are only two ways you can achieve that: You can reduce military spending and then fund the national security force to that same level or you can keep military spending where it is and provide a equivalent amount of funding for the national security force. Okay yea, there is a third option: You can increase military spending and raise the funding for the national security force to the same level.
The point being that regardless which of those you do you're going to be spending more money. Allow me to point out, yet again, that you can only reduce military spending so much. Yes we could severely reduce military spending by getting the hell out of Iraq and all the other foreign countries we have troops in (I'll ask, yet again, why the fuck are we defending Europe from the Soviet Union still?), but that's not going to happen regardless of the bullshit the King Hussein told you while he was campaigning for the presidency. A large portion of military spending is in fact the money spent to support the human beings who are in the military - food, clothing, shelter, medical care. All of these things can't go away unless of course you reduce the number of people in the military.
What exactly does he mean when he says just as strong and just as powerful? Will this civilian national security force be invading other countries? Will this national civilian security force have tanks, armoured vehicles, gun ships, aircraft carriers, fighter craft and nuclear warhead cruise missiles? Will the individuals in this force be armed with 9 mm handguns, M-16 rifles, M-60 machine guns and antitank weapons? Will this force have authorization to kill other people and get away with it?
How about we take a look at this quote in the context of the speech in which it was given. Here are the words leading up to King Hussein's announcement of the Obama brownshirts:
Just as we must value and encourage military service across our society, we must honor and expand other opportunities to serve. Because the future of our nation depends on the soldier at Fort Carson, but it also depends on the teacher in East LA, or the nurse in Appalachia, the after-school worker in New Orleans, the Peace Corps volunteer in Africa, the Foreign Service officer in Indonesia. . . .
Today, AmeriCorps - our nation's network of local, state and national service programs - has 75,000 slots. And I know firsthand the quality of these programs. My wife Michelle once left her job at a law firm at city hall to be a founding director of an AmeriCorps program in Chicago that trains young people for careers in public service. These programs invest Americans in their communities and their country. They tap America's greatest resource - our citizens.
That's why as President, I will expand AmeriCorps to 250,000 slots, and make that increased service a vehicle to meet national goals like providing health care and education, saving our planet and restoring our standing in the world, so that citizens see their efforts connected to a common purpose. People of all ages, stations, and skills will be asked to serve. Because when it comes to the challenges we face, the American people are not the problem - they are the answer.
So we are going to send more college graduates to teach and mentor our young people. We'll call on Americans to join an Energy Corps to conduct renewable energy and environmental cleanup projects in their neighborhoods all across the country. We will enlist our veterans to find jobs and support for other vets, to be there for our military families. And we're going to grow our Foreign Service, open consulates that have been shuttered, and double the size of Peace Corps by 2011 to renew our diplomacy.
We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.
Now that we have some more context to this statement we see that, while it's not evil in quite the same way it sounds like when you initially hear it, it's still pretty damn evil. We, meaning the government, must honour and expand other opportunities to serve. Notice again the government must provide opportunities to serve. People cannot, in the liberal Democrat version of the world, go out and find opportunities for themselves to serve, or create opportunities for themselves to serve. No they need liberal Democrats running the government to create for them the opportunities to serve. Further evidence that liberals are helpless children.
His wife Michelle left a job at a law firm to be a founding director of the AmeriCorps program in Chicago. So what's he going to do? King Hussein is going to channel money into the AmeriCorps. How exactly is this different from when George Bush's wife, Dick Cheney, says "I used to work for Halliburton so how about we give some money to Halliburton" and Bush says "okay we will give money to Halliburton." I thought those days were over with. King Hussein is going to give money to the Corporation . . . it's a corporation, don't fool yourself, AmeriCorps is a corporation just like any other one . . . King Hussein is going to give money to the Corporation his wife used to work for. I thought these days were over and done. I thought we had "change"? Not just change, but "change we need". Is this really the change you fucking liberals need? Maybe so, but it's not the change I have any use for.
King Hussein is going to expand AmeriCorps to 250,000 slots and the use AmeriCorps as a vehicle to meet national goals like healthcare and education? People will be asked to serve. Asked my ass, how much do you want to bet people end up being forced to serve. The American people will embrace the notion of forced service because of their reliance on the government to solve everything for them.
We're going to send more college graduates to teach and mentor our young people? Who the hell is teaching and mentoring the young people now? In order to teach in schools don't you have to get a college education? We will enlist our veterans to find jobs and support for other vets? So now that people are out of the military we're going to put them to work even though they are no longer in the military? They're going to be re-employed by the government? Oh wait, they are going to do this for free, not pay. Double the size of the Peace Corps? Change we need!
And then of course he says the quote that we all love. The civilian national security force that's just as powerful strong as and as well-funded as the military. Where is all this money going to come from? I'll tell you where it will come from, it will come from your paycheck. It's called taxes. And where are all these people going to come from? I'll tell you where they come from, they're going to come from your schools and your homes. They are going to be you and your children. They are going to be the young people of America who voted for this stupid mother fucker.
I told you people when I was recording Stating The Obvious, you can go back and you can listen to them and you can hear it yourself . . . I told you people now that the election is over with and Obama has been elected, don't think it's over. It is not over. It has just begun. The entire point of his campaign was "yes we can". Well "we" did it, and now "we" have to keep doing it. You people gave this stupid son of a bitch free labour and free marketing all throughout the campaign. The freebies aren't coming to an end, he's coming for more. All you high school kids and all you college kids who voted for him, guess what? He's going to be cashing in. You wanted change, you're getting change, and you're going to have to make the change. You stupid people are going to be the free labour behind his socialist vision of America.
That 100 hours of service that you're going to do in college in order to get that $4000 tax credit, that's part of Obama's master plan. You are going to be the free labour that allows them to implement this socialist program.
Enough of that, let's talk about "just as well-funded". At this time the fiscal year 2009 budget for the military is expected to be approximately $585 billion. According to my information the current budget for the AmeriCorps and for the Peace Corps (individually not together) are both under $1 billion. So if King Hussein is going to fund his national security civilian force at the same level as he funds the military he's going to be coughing up an additional - I take that back, you the people that pay taxes - are going to be coughing up an additional $583 billion.
Another way of looking at it: The Heritage Foundation has reported that the spending on military personnel averages at $70,000 per member. That means it costs the military $70,000 for every person in the military. So King Hussein is intending to increase spending for the AmeriCorps and the Peace Corps to $70,000 per individual per year? Where is this money coming from, oh wait we know where the money's coming from, it's coming from you stupid mother fuckers who chanted "yes we can".
Total federal income taxes in 2005 resulted in $935 billion flowing into the government. If King Hussein is going to do what he says he's doing, and we know he is going to do what he says - that's why you people voted for him, and if he means what he says, and we know he means what he says - that's why you people voted for him, and if he really do talk pretty, and we know he talk pretty - that's why you fucking voted for him, all of this means that in order to fund his civilian national security force and make it just as well-funded as the military, he's going to have to deicate somewhere around half of the entire income tax revenue of the federal government every year. Is this the fiscal responsibility that you stupid fucks elected him for? Change we need!
No matter how you look at it we already have evidence that Black-Bama is not the person he sold you on. If he does in fact mean that he is going to create some sort of armed brownshirt civilian organization in the United States then he's not peacenik you think he is. If he is going to increase funding for these civic organizations until they have the same level of funding as the military then he is not the fiscally responsible individual he told you he was. Finally, if he just got tongue-tied and misspoke that means he's not pretty talker that you people think he is.
Black-Bama may talk pretty, but he didn't talk pretty this day.
Oh wait, we're not finished yet. I almost forgot to finish up with the labour part of this. Where is he getting all this labour from? He's getting all this labour from you. This labour is free. If you go to the website change.gov you can read all about Black-Bama's plans for America. Find the section entitled America Serves. It used to say in this section "The Obama Administration will call on Americans to serve in order to meet the nation's challenges. President-Elect Obama will expand national service programs like AmeriCorps and Peace Corps and will create a new Classroom Corps to help teachers in underserved schools, as well as a new Health Corps, Clean Energy Corps, and Veterans Corps. Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year."
That section of the change.gov website has now been changed so that it reads "Obama and Biden will call on citizens of all ages to serve. They'll set a goal that all middle school and high school students engage in 50 hours of community service a year, and develop a plan for all college students who engage in 100 hours of community service to receive a fully-refundable tax credit of $4,000 for their education."
First of all there is no such thing as free, that money is going to come from some place and that some place will be people like me who fucking work for a living. It will not come from you fucking filthy parasites on welfare who voted for change. In the original website you can see Black-Bama's true intention. To force young people who don't know any better to provide him with free labour. Regardless of whether or not they have guns (they will not, King Hussein will be collecting the guns) and regardless of whether or not they're wearing brown shirts, can you say Hitler youth?
I understand exactly why Black-Bama wants to do this. You get people when they're young, their minds are easy to influence, and you can fuck them up for life. This is why in public schools children are taught shit like global warming. This is why they're taught shit like socialism. This is why they're taught shit like hating the rich people. This is why they're taught shit like if you're white you should feel guilty about slavery, if you're black you can't be successful without affirmative action.
Let me give you a totally unrelated example which illustrates this perfectly. This is from the October 2008 issue of Liberty Magazine, by Matt Varvaro - a student in Port Washington, New York.
The notion that "today's children are tomorrow's leaders" is quite frightening. I came to this disheartening conclusion during the first group activity on the first day of a program on leadership and politics that I attended with other high school students this summer in Washington, D.C.
The activity was called "Community Build." When the group - about 75 students in total - entered the activity room, we found the floor divided into four rectangular sections by lines of duct tape: one very large section, one medium-size section, and two very small sections. We were divided into four groups; each group of students was assigned to one of the four sections and given a bag of materials that included construction paper, writing utensils, tape, scissors, and some hypothetical "money." We were told to build the ideal city within our section with the materials provided. We were not allowed to step outside our respective sections, and before we could "build" anything, we were required to get a permit from a board of teachers sitting at the front of the room.
I'm always skeptical about arts and crafts projects, but I had a good idea where this was going, and it actually looked promising. Sure enough, when the activity officially began, everything that I expected to happen did. Building permits were extremely hard to get, we had to make many revisions to our designs before they were approved by the board, and for the duration of the activity, teachers playing the role of police walked among the students and removed from the room anyone who happened to step outside of his rectangle. As you can imagine, with dozens of people trying to squeeze into a relatively small space, "arrests" were frequent.
As we worked on our city, I thought to myself that this was turning out to be surprisingly worthwhile; bureaucratic inefficiency, burdensome regulation - it had a strong, if unintended, libertarian undertone.
When the teachers announced that time was up, we all sat down around the "cities" and compared the different groups' work. The largest rectangle, obviously symbolizing the upper class, had a wide variety of buildings with a lot of space open and available for more. The smaller rectangle - the middle class - had some buildings and was well-developed, but was tighter and could not fit many of the buildings that the upper class could afford to build. The two tiny, poor sections had hardly any buildings and were a mess compared to the larger areas next to them.
The teachers then asked us what problems we encountered in building our cities. Some people said that the board forced them to make useless changes to their building designs before they would be permitted to construct them, others said that the board completely rejected designs for no reason at all, while others described how they were thrown into "prison" for violating rules that they never even knew existed. This is great, I thought - growing discontent and outrage over the bureaucratic nightmare that we just experienced. Now it was time for the final discussion: what should be done to fix this absurd process?
I expected to hear the obvious answers: regulate less, make permits easier to obtain, stop arresting people for frivolous violations. But for some reason, when the first student (who worked in one of the tiny rectangles) raised his hand, I felt a sinking sensation in the pit of my stomach, as if I somehow anticipated the words he would speak.
"The rich group should have given us more money," he complained. More hands shot up.
"We should have an agency specifically designed to oversee the poor neighborhoods' buildings," another said.
"The poor people couldn't build cities for themselves, so the government should help them out and build some things for them."
"The rich people have so much land in their section. Give some of it to the poor cities. This would promote equality and fairness."
"What about the environment? The board should have taken that into account."
Dumbfounded, I listened as my peers demonstrated how completely backwards their perception of society, government, and simple cause-and-effect was. Nobody seemed to comprehend that if A causes B, and we don't like B, then we shouldn't ask for more A! I was shocked to see that these future "leaders" took away all of the wrong lessons from this seemingly worthwhile activity. But I learned a lesson myself, specifically the direction in which our country is headed if these kids really do lead it someday.
The young people of America working to serve chairman Obama. It's a socialist paradise. An entire generation is going to be raised to believe that solutions come from the government. Raised to believe that individual responsibility is something to be rejected and replaced by some sort of insect-like society where individuals don't exist, at least not in the sense of individuality. Each person is merely a cog in a greater machine and each person lives only to serve that machine. The machine of society is the higher purpose. The machine of society is for these people their God. And the brain of that God is the government.
And who says liberal Democrats don't have religion?
The First Affirmative Action President
Why do I refer to Hussein Obama as the first affirmative action president? The reason is really quite simple. It is of course common knowledge, which means that people say it a lot without having the evidence to back it up, that affirmative action is the only way to equalize the disparities in the world, or at least in the United States, between white people and black people when it comes to opportunity - especially employment opportunity. Were it not for affirmative action, black people would not have access to educational and employment opportunities because the evil white people would keep them down. Look at any successful black person who is a liberal Democrat and that person will tell you - had it not been for affirmative action they would not have been capable of achieving success. Therefore affirmative action works, and affirmative action must be kept in place.
Whenever any black person comes forward and says "I achieved what I have achieved without the assistance of affirmative action" that person is immediately labelled, by the black leadership, an "Uncle Tom". For evidence of this you need only look at Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell or Walter Williams. You could also use virtually any person who has dark skin and votes Republican, or at least doesn't vote Democrat.
What we are told by "the black leadership" (And what the fuck is "the black leadership" anyway? How fucking insulting is that to black people? You have to have "leadership" in order to be black? Do they get to elect this leadership?) is that black people are not capable of achieving on their own, they can only achieve with the assistance of affirmative action. Of course this is important because affirmative action is something which is forced upon people by the government and specifically by white liberals in the government. This is the way the white liberal Democrats keep the black people dependent upon them and the way the white liberal Democrats continue to buy/manipulate/extort the votes of the black people. Should black people be capable of achieving success on their own, without the assistance of the rich white liberal Democrats in the halls of Congress, black people will no longer have that unspoken obligation to vote for those rich white Democrats in the house of Congress in order to maintain their affirmative action privileges. If they can achieve on their own they do not need those privileges.
It only takes one small stone to start a rock slide. You can see evidence of this in the four-minute mile. For many many years people thought it was impossible to run a mile in less than four minutes. Then the individual, whose name I've forgotten, ran a mile in less than four minutes. Suddenly everybody was running a mile in less than four minutes. Small children, old people, men, women. Suddenly people all over the world could run a mile in less than four minutes - something previously thought to be impossible. What changed? One person accomplished the "impossible" and therefore other people, having seen this, realized they were capable of doing it also.
This illustrates the danger of what will happen if one person, even one person with dark skin, is successful without the assistance of affirmative action. If in fact Hussein Obama became president of the United States, something one could argue is perhaps the greatest achievement a single human being could ever conquer, without the assistance of affirmative action this would indicate to black people all over the United States that they are capable of being successful without the crutch of affirmative action. And if that happens, if they throw down the crutch and walk on their own, then the Liberal Democrats are shit out of luck. Therefore black leadership, liberal Democrats and Hussein Obama himself must all maintain that affirmative action played a part in Hussein's winning the election and becoming the president of the United States.
He cannot take full credit for his achievement. He must give part of the credit for his achievement to white liberal Democrats and affirmative action laws. Therefore he is, like it or not, the first affirmative action president of the United States.
And here is another thing to think about - plus you can confirm this for yourself. Read any newspaper article about Hussein Obama. Within the first three sentences there will be a reference to his skin colour. And don't expect that to change. His skin colour is his shield against criticism.
I challenge King Hussein to publicly state "I achieved what I've achieved without affirmative action." He can't do it, and he never will.
