More on Comrade Obama

Posted by Neophyte Pundit on Wednesday, June 04, 2008 6:00:00 PM
Ronald Reagan on collectivism:
"The hard evidence of totalitarian rule has caused in mankind an uprising of the intellect and will. Whether it is the growth of the new schools of economics in America or England or the appearance of the so-called new philosophers in France, there is one unifying thread running through the intellectual work of these groups -- rejection of the arbitrary power of the state, the refusal to subordinate the rights of the individual to the superstate, the realization that collectivism stifles all the best human impulses. "
~Ronald Reagan
 
"Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives."
~~Ronald Reagan
 
Comrade Obama's goal will be to consolidate power into the hands of the government.  Imagine , if you will, some bureaucrat(s) making decisions for you and your family regarding:
  • Healthcare- Comrade Obama wants Universal Healthcare
  • Consumer Goods Consumption- afterall we "...eat as much as we want...," therefore bureaucrats will determine what you can eat
  • Gasoline Consumption- we also "can't drive our SUV's...," therefore the government bureaucrats will decide how much you may consume and/or when you can drive and for how long
  • Thermostats- your ever loving Comrade Obama will also decide what yout thermostat we be set at
  • Carbon Emissions- the governent is going to decide what your carbon footprint will be, Comrade Obama will stifle the economy, saddle the people of the United States with higer prices for everything
  • Free-Trade- there will be no new Free-Trade agreements, instead new agreements will mandate everything from job guarantees, labor protections, carbon-footprint, and again HIGHER prices for imports
  • Judicial Appointments- activist judges will be chosen to ensure that a worldview that throws the Constitution to the wolves, shredded for a new Weltanschauung, no longer will the Founding Father's thoughts, beliefs, writings, intentions will be set aside for the liberal Ideal's of Europe
  • Wind-fall Profit Taxes- the American Dream of success wil be supplanted with the Collective Salvation, not one new drop of oil will be pulled from huge oil deposits from ANWAR to the Coastal waters, instead Comrade Obama will take, TAKE, profits from evil Big Oil Corporations, investment in new technology will be snuffed out when the bureaucrats decide that the profits made by Venture Capitalists, CEO's, and money managers is too egregious, bye-bye stock invesments
  • Higher Taxes- the spending and out of control entitlements will cause taxes to rise percipitously, "the rich," identified by those earning $250,000, will eventually be redefined by those earning $200,000, then $150,000 and so on, you get the drift...
  • Defeat in Iraq- a withdrawal of troops  before victory will throw the Middle East into the hands of al Qaeda, Hezbollah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, etc.
  • Eurabia- as our troops are withdrawn from Iraq the jihadists will be emboldened to impose sharia law in Great Britan followed by the France and the domino effect will later cause the United States to ride in and rescue the Europeans
The harm that will face the United States of America will make the Carter Presidency pale in comparision.  4 years of dimocratic governing by Comrade Obama out of the White House aligned with majorities in the House and Senate will subject our economy to paroxysms of epic proportions.  Stagflation of the 70's/80's will make the 2000's feel like merry times.  The vote of 2008 will set the tone for a decade of misery and malaise, our guerdon will be a struggle to right the Titanic after hitting the iceberg...I tremble at the potential havoc that will become the USA...

Comrade Obama's Big Night: Why the Left Lost It's Way

Posted by Neophyte Pundit on Tuesday, June 03, 2008 8:00:00 PM
Bill Bennett on Obama (via Hugh Hewitt via The Corner):
[T]he Democratic party is about to nominate a far left candidate in the tradition of George McGovern, albeit without McGovern’s military and political record. The Democratic party is about to nominate a far-left candidate in the tradition of Michael Dukakis, albeit without Dukakis’s executive experience as governor. The Democratic party is about to nominate a far left candidate in the tradition of John Kerry, albeit without Kerry’s record of years of service in the Senate. The Democratic party is about to nominate an unvetted candidate in the tradition of Jimmy Carter, albeit without Jimmy Carter’s religious integrity as he spoke about it in 1976. Questions about all these attributes (from foreign policy expertise to executive experience to senatorial experience to judgment about foreign leaders to the instructors he has had in his cultural values) surround Barack Obama. And the Democratic party has chosen him.
Michael Ramirez from Investor's Business Daily:
Cartoons By Michael Ramirez
Hmmm, Comrade Obama seems to have sought the endorsement of the New Party in 1996.  Red State has more...
 
Oooh, there's more to Comrade Barack Hussein Obama than meets the eye (thus Bill Bennet's claim of "unvetted.") via LibertyRocks:

Obama on Individualism, vs. Collective thought, action and deed… 
In America,” Obama says, “we have this strong bias toward individual action. You know, we idolize the John Wayne hero who comes in to correct things with both guns blazing. But individual actions, individual dreams, are not sufficient. We must unite in collective action, build collective institutions and organizations.”

- Barack Obama,
Interview with the Chicago Reader, 1995
This is going to be a fun election, with lot's of tid bits that percolate to the surface on Comrade Obama...there's got to be more, much more.  Will the general election spell the end of Comrade Obama's free ride?  Will the masses still be swooning at his every word?  His oratorical style aside, will his words truly be parsed?  Will the Collective Salvation supplant the American Dream?  Hmmm....Liberation Theology preached by the Reverend Wright and Reverend Phlegar is Socialism!  Comrade Obama sat in the pews of Trinity United Church for 20 years because he has fully embraced the theology and has found a way to sell it to the American left.  The Dimocrats are in trouble...

Comrade Obama: "Collective Service Can Shape Our Destiny"

Posted by Neophyte Pundit on Tuesday, June 03, 2008 7:00:00 PM
I can take it no longer.  I can no longer sit back and listen to the stuff that comes out of Obama's mouth (heretofore referred on this blog as Comrade Obama).  Nor can I sit back and be silent.  Every time I listen to him I am amazed at what comes out of his mouth.  The claptrap that he spews is not just populist, it is downright socialist/communist!  He is so far leftist that he makes McGovern sound downright Reaganesque!  The Prairie Populist meets the Chitown Collectivist- I guess i can't go so far as to call him a communist, yet.
 
I sat back and listened when Comrade Obama was campaigning in Oregon and made the following claim:
"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 okay.  That's not leadership," Obama added.  "That's not going to happen."
 
Whoa, did he really say that?  Did he really say that he was going back to the malaise of Jimmy Carter?  Did he really just that I can longer CHOOSE to drive my SUV?  Did he just make a comment that he is going to regulate what my thermostat is going to be set at?  We are no longer talking about giving American's choice, we are going to "lead" by taking choice away.  At the time I dropped my jaw, but kept silent.  WOW...I thought maybe, just maybe the left would notice that Comrade Obama is unelectable and set to drop the Dimocrats' chance at the presidency. 
 
Then, then Comrade Obama went toWesleyan University and made the following comments in the commencement speech:
"Our collective service can shape the destiny of this generation." And further he added, "Individual salvation depends on collective salvation."
Comrade Marx would be very proud of Comrade Obama!  WOW.  Did Obama listen to Reagan at all:
``...the march of freedom and democracy . . . will leave Marxist-Leninism on the ashheap of history.''
The calim by the National Journal is beginning to look prescient, award winner Barack Hussein Obama, 2007 Most Liberal Senator!
 
Phew, that is incredible stuff coming directly from Comrade Obama's mouth.  I would think that McCain is sitting back, laughing all the way to the bank (or in this case, to the White House).  If I were advising Sen. McCain, I'd tell him to go buy a lottery ticket!  He's the luckiest man alive.  All the McCain team and the GOP need to do is use Obama's word's.  Forget the stuff about Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, Rev. Phlegar (sp?), etc.
 
Collectivism...salvation...when will we hear that we must abandon "the American Dream" for the collective salvation of the "World Dream?"  Is that even a dream?  No wonder Comrade Obama doesn't wear an American Flag pin on his lapel, he must have the "World Collective" lapel pin!
 
People of the United States of America put aside your selfish ambitions!  We will make you comply!  Your homes can no longer be as large as 3000 sq. ft.  Your thermostats can no longer be set at any higher than 79 degrees (actually, manufacturers can no longer produce thermostats that have settings below 80).  Your cars will have at least 40 mpg, and by 2012 must be 50% electric, with a goal of 100% alternative fuels by 2015...no person can have more than his/her ration of wheat, corn and tofu (beef/chicken and other meat products have been eliminated).
 
The American Dream is a nightmare according to Comrade Obama.  Who would have thought.  I remind Comrade Obama of the following quote by Ronald Reagan: 
"Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives."
So, for the duration of the election, it will be Comrade Obama.
