What If Obama Was White?

/in /by

On the eve of the election of United States’ first truly African-American president many Americans and U.S citizens anxiously anticipated a new day for the nation. A more prosperous nation. A nation that was more respected around the world. A more unified nation. But at the least, a happier nation.  A change for the best of our nation.20121107_HP_OBAMA-slide-ZGN6-articleLarge

But as I look around my nation I see the fading shadows of great promise and expectations vanishing to the harsh glaring light. We no longer have the expectations of being exceptional nor of a prosperous future. The nation is more ethnically, socially, sexually, and economically divided. We are morally destitute. We are less wealthy as a nation and the government of the United States is spending money like it has a printing press. Oops! It does have a printing press. America’s traditional friends no longer trust the motives or intentions of the U.S government while our nation’s enemies grow more brazen and threatening in our current prostituted state. What’s most troubling is that while Rome burns all around Caesar Obama seems to be unscathed – clean of any blame by many Americans or citizens of the United States. The Establishment Media dares not speak any ill of him. And many citizens see the nation’s demise as systemic to our construction – free-market oriented and constitutionally based- rather than the fault of the policies of the head of the government, i.e., Mr. O, as they have in the past. He’s the first Teflon President.

A very good argument can be, and has been, made that Mr. O, enabled by the Establishment Media, has used the color of his skin like Thor’s hammer to beat and intimidate his opponents into submission. But let’s imagine if Mr. O was White. We have experienced the Carter and Clinton presidencies. Carter’s name is still mud to many Americans due to the economic carnage that he unleashed upon the nation. And Clinton will go down in history as the president who was impeached and disbarred, supposedly, for not being able to keep his pants up and lying under oath to the American people.

But if Barry – Obama’s birth name – was White, first he would not have received the Nobel Peace Prize barely 5 days into his presidency. [ Just an aside question, if Barry’s birth name was Barry, why did the Birth Certificate presented to us have Barack? I’m just asking.]  I mean Jimmy at least is credited for bringing Egypt and Israel together in peace. We all remember President G.H Bush’s promise to not raise any new taxes – “read my lips”. That was just one fateful utterance that caused him his reelection. But, I don’t have enough fingers or toes to count the many unfulfilled promises of Mr. O. Here are just a few: He promised taxes on the middle-class would not go up under his presidency. Following an unprecedented spike in unemployment after the passage of his “stimulus” package, in which he’d promised employment wouldn’t rise above 7% if it was passed, he promised he would “focus like a laser beam” on the economy to grow jobs. Oops! There goes his reelection hopes. Right?  And he promised that Obama-care if passed would reduce the cost of healthcare, reduce the government’s debt, and not cause anyone to lose their choice of doctors or current coverage. How is that promise working for ya America eh? But let’s not call him out on these such issues because it may be deemed “racist”.

Under Mr. O’s regime there has been a considerable increase on Black on White violence that has received noticeably less vigorous attention from this Administration and it’s Justice Department.  The government’s top cop, Attorney General Eric Holder, made it clear that he would not treat Black on White crimes equally under the law.  And though Mr. O can stop the world from moving in order to involve himself in crime issues when Blacks may be the victim such as the Trayvon Martin case, but in cases when so-called “flash mobs” of primarily young Blacks reek havoc even in his adopted home town of Chicago or even when horrific Black on White violence hits national and international papers, like in the cases of a WWII vet being beaten with flash lights by a couple of Black youths or that of a Australian baseball player killed by  a Black youth just because he was said to been bored, he’s silent and most uninvolved.  But neither of these will be tried as “hate crimes”?  I find it most ironic that the man that’s the head of the party that created the Klan and lynched and terrorized Blacks for generations, who is himself Black, today turns deaf and mute on matters regarding Blacks violently attacking Whites.  And the Media dares to say anything in fear of being called racist and insensitive to Blacks.

As he unmercifully uses all resources of the federal government to bludgeon any city or State that attempts to protect its citizens from the flood of illegal immigrants, particularly those from Mexico, and enforce actual federal immigration and voter laws he’s curiously uninterested in matters of cities and States blatantly breaking federal laws that favor illegal immigrants such as creating sanctuary jurisdictions, such as California and Chicago and San Francisco. As he moves heaven and earth to bestow an abundance of warm kisses with tongue and hugs to the illegal Mexican community, the community for which he got into the dance with, the American-Black community, has been relegated to waiting at the table next to bathroom. The American-Black community has seen its household income drop, standard of living drop, and unemployment rates rise under the regime of supposedly one of their own. I guess 95% plus voting output isn’t valued as much as it once was. At least when Blacks voted nearly 100% Republican up until 1965 we at least got positive results such as the abolishment of slavery, passage of the Civil Rights Acts, and the outlawing of Jim Crow laws in the South. But never mind those were done by mean White men.

Barry has piled on more regulations and debt on the backs of the American people in a time of economic depression that would make Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt blush in embarrassment and envious of his success in imposing their anti-prosperous Keynesian Economic principles. This stunningly remarkable feat is being done as Mr. O imitates Sybil and blames the government for the nation’s historic economic ills. Shh…maybe someone should quietly remind Barry that as president…he is the government. When Eisenhower was president he famously stated, “the buck stops here”. He took full responsibility for everything under his presidency. With Mr. O, the buck is exhausted from the lack of rest. But, it’s okay because it’s the fault the White power structure that is not allowing him to make America prosperous. Right? America is failing after some 200 plus years of world economic dominance because our system of free enterprise doesn’t work but only for the wealthy and White people. Right?

But maybe the most important question to ponder is if Barry was not Black but White, would a more critical eye be placed on him by the populace and the Media due to his intimate relations with some of the most extreme leftist and Communist individuals, such as Saul Alinsky, 1960’s extreme leftist organizer, Frank Marshall, a devoted Marxist/Communist who was on the FBI’s Most Wanted List, and his own brother who has prominent ties to the terrorist group the Muslim Brotherhood? Some may began question the true motivations of many, if not all, of Mr. O’s motives and actions in the Middle East, particular regarding Egypt, Libya, and now Syria, that has benefited the radical Islamist sec. I know that Jimmy got a couple of military men killed during the raid to rescue the Americans at the embassy in Iran and Reagan got a couple hundred Marines killed in Lebanon. But, Barry has set with what used to be a rather tranquil area of the world a blazed with no noticeable intent to make it more favorable to America’s national or international interest on the side of people so extreme that they where feared by most Arab nations, such as Egypt, Libya, Iran, and Syria. And barely a peep is heard in questioning this man who sits in the most powerful position in the world because no one wants to dare be called or viewed “racist”.  Simply insane!

It is said that, that which is true in the light, so shall it be in the darkness.  But, we must first seek truth in ourselves and then seek it from others.  We can not be afraid to question with boldness the intentions and motives of those who lead.  At the end of the day, it comes down to the responsibility of the citizenry to be eternally vigilant over those in the position of political power and measure them on their actions and content of their character, not what they say, how good they may say it, nor the color of their skin in which they say it.  Mr. O rose to his position promising change. But from what, to what, and more importantly why? His mentor Saul Alinsky said of change, “Change is brought about through relentless agitation and “trouble making” of a kind that radically disrupts society as it is.” View his actions. Can we truly say that his kind of change was what this nation needed? Can the nation rebuild after his carnage?

If its government is immoral, can America be good?

/1 Comment/in , /by

The current occupant of the Oval Office seems to have a serious issue with issues of right and wrong, particularly when it has to do with the restraints of the Constitution.  The most glaring exhibits are of matters involving illegal Mexicans immigrants being forced to enter the country as other immigrants have done for generations, his attempts to place homosexual unions on par with that of heterosexual unions, and blatantly blurring the traditional lines of ethnicity and morality.

Ever since being placed as president of the United States he has done everything as he promised days before his election, “to fundamentally change America”.  He is doing all that he can to ignore and subjugate longstanding Constitutional principles of conduct. In particular his dealing with the law-making branch of government, the Congress, and his manipulative use of the regulatory powers of the Executive Branch. One of my favorite quotes is from Alexis de Tocqueville when he said of America’s moral standing, “America is great because America is good. If America ever ceases to be good it will cease to be great.’  Is this how he looks to forever alter America, to dismantle its core?  First, he entered the office by being a complete enigma, an unknown entity, speaking words that triggered emotional responses at a time that the American people thirsted for hope for better a future and change from the perceived failings for past.  He’s like an unattractive gal who gives the last guy in the bar, who’s really emotionally distressed and depressed, a minute before it closes, some great tantalizing conversation and attention, saying all of the right things. The guy figures why not her?  But, now it’s the morning after and the guy is feeling like he was been taken advantage of because he has a house full of strangers, the locks on the doors have been changed, and his family jewels are nowhere to be seen.

Mr. Obama came into office promising to be the most transparent Administration ever, the most ethical, and would unite not just of the government, but the people.  Regarding his Administration being transparent, he has sealed all of his personal college transcripts and questions dealing with his actual birth certificate, and his past in general, still linger. I remind you that this isn’t someone who bounces a ball or entertains, but the President of the United States who has a unknown past to most Americans.  This Administration has been involved in one the most massive cover-ups since the Nixon break in with its involvement in the Fast and Furious covert gun-running program that ended up getting Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, age 40, killed by Mexican drug-smugglers during a gunfight.  Incredibly, as reported by  Forbes 9/28/11 report, the deadly gun battle started with USBP shooting bean bags at the smugglers shooting with AK-47s.  Talk about bringing a knife to a gun fight.  Is it just me, or there something seriously wrong with our side’s rules of engagement when it comes to fighting Mexican bad guys at the U.S border?  I’m just asking.  The Administration’s Justice Department hasn’t yet come clean with the details of the covert operation run-a-muck, which led to for the first time ever a sitting U.S  Attorney General, Eric Holder, being held in contempt of the Congress.  The Administration effectively blocked for the AG by inexplicably invoking Executive Privilege so we the people may never know the truth of this horrific debacle.  What makes this offense so astounding is the fact that this may have all been done to manipulate the people into granting for the passage of more gun restrictions on legitimate gun sellers and dealers when massive amounts of guns used in gang and gun violence could be traced back to American guns stores.

Other examples of questionable ethical and moral actions have to do with this Administration’s unwillingness to abide by the traditional protocols and restraints applied by the Constitution when he unilaterally chooses to either ignore established law and or just creates its own regulatory policies, that in essence becomes law.  Thereby he totally ignores the fact that it is the Legislative, not the Executive, Branch that is empowered to make law and thus obliterating all pretenses of traditional Constitutional Checks and Balances.  Just a few examples; President Obama told the Justice Department to stop defending the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, that allowed states to refuse to recognize same-sex partnerships legally recognized in other states. This was enacted not through any process through the Congress or the courts, but just because Mr. O didn’t think that it was constitutional.  Mr. Obama also is the first sitting U.S. president to outright endorse equal marriage rights for gay couples and to dismantle the military’s longstanding ban on service by gays and lesbians, “don’t ask, don’t tell”. The law that allowed gays to serve so long as they simply keep their sexuality a secret. Both laws have been around since the Clinton Administration.

Also Obama’s Administration decided with the stroke of the pen to tell Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency[ICE], via the Homeland Security Department, to no longer enforce immigration violations by illegal immigrants, particularly those from Mexico and Latin America. The Executive Order allows anyone who was brought to this country prior to age 16 and who is under the age of 30 not to have to face deportation. In addition, they must have lived here for 5 years, obtained a high school diploma, and/or served in the military. Lastly, they could not have a criminal record.  But according to a FOX News report of 7/27/12, the ICE Union President Chris Crane claims that illegal immigrants are “taking advantage” of a new directive allowing some undocumented residents who came to the U.S. as children to stay in the country. The policy ends up allowing illegal immigrants to avoid detention without any proof — particularly so-called “dreamers,” or those illegal immigrants who would benefit under the “DREAM Act” proposal, which Congress has not passed but the administration  has partially implemented. And this is on top of a quietly imposed Administration Directive, as reported by the Daily Caller on 6/20/11, to top ICE officials that they need not enforce immigration laws if illegal immigrants are enrolled in an education center or if their relatives have volunteered for the US military.  Really?!  What about the Black and White poor and middle class Americans who are already unemployed and or under-employed?

So as Mr. Obama methodically pits homo-sexual Americans against hetero-sexual Americans, illegal immigrants against legal citizens, and rich American against poor American supposedly for the benefit of the “little guy” and in the name of “fairness”.  But, he does this mostly not within the traditional restraints and protocols of the Constitution, to which he supposedly swore an oath to, or with apparent and recognizable motives, but with a simple stroke of his pen and an unseen hand he makes the law-biding citizen question the very purpose of law if the head of the government shows such apparent disrespect and distain for it. Maybe Mr. O is following the teachings of one of his idols, Saul Alinsky, early 1900’s Chicago “community organizer”. He spoke of there being one single principle, which is to take power from the haves and give to the have-nots, to which he coined, political nihilism– to assault of the established order in the name of the “people”

The question that needs to be asked of this Administration, and all others, is what laws is law?  The ones that just are or just ones that you agree with?  What is the truth?  That which just is or that which it says it is?  And if the government is allowed to fudge the line of what is law and truth so blatantly who are the people to rely on for justice and truth?  If it is the people who decides who is to govern and represent us, and the government is immoral and unethical, not good, can the moral integrity of the nation and goodness of the people be without question?  Though too many of us want to take to the streets when a leader of a sports team or institution acts immorally or unethically, but let the president of the United States attempt to redefined what is is and be disbarred for ling to a Grand Jury, or have one cost millions in dollar and thousands in the lives of American sons and daughters in invading two sovereign nations for presumably “weapons of mass destruction” and retaliation for attacking the U.S on September 11, 2001, or maybe have one to pretend to be something or someone that he’s not, that’s acceptable.  Really?  Remember, we have the government, we have the nation, which we chose to have.
