Barack Hussein Obama – Wrong for America
I received this from a very close and lifelong friend, a man that’s usually not too political and someone that doesn’t forward emails just for kicks, he is upset at the possibility of Barack Hussein Obama becoming president, and so am I, and YOU should be too!
We are witnessing a political phenomenon with Barack Obama of rare magnitude. His speeches have inspired millions and yet most of his followers have no idea of what he stands for except platitudes of ‘Change’ or that he says he will be a ‘Uniter’. The power of speech from a charismatic person truly can be a powerful thing. Certainly Billy Graham had charisma and both his manner of speech and particularly the content changed millions. On the extreme other hand, the charisma of Adolph Hitler inspired millions and the results were catastrophic. Barack Obama certainly is no Hitler or a Billy Graham, but for many Americans out there feeling just like a surfer who might be ecstatic and euphoric while riding a tidal wave, the real story is what happens when it hits shore.Just Some of What Defines Barack Obama:
– He voted against banning partial birth abortion.
– He voted no on notifying parents of minors who get out-of-state abortions.
– Supports affirmative action in Colleges and Government.
– In 2001 he questioned harsh penalties for drug dealing.
– Says he will deal with street level drug dealing as a minimum wage affair.
– Admitted marijuana and cocaine use in high school and in college.
– His religious convictions are very murky.
– He is willing to meet with Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Kim Jung Il and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
– Has said that one of his first goals after being elected would be to have a conference with all Muslim nations.
– Opposed the Patriot Act.
– First bill he signed that was passed was campaign finance reform.
– Voted No on prohibiting law suits against gun manufacturers.
– Supports universal health care.
– Voted Yes on providing habeas corpus for Guantanamo detainees.
– Supports granting driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.
– Supports extending welfare to illegal immigrants.
– Voted Yes on comprehensive immigration reform. Would result in 20 million instant citizens never having paid SS, many refusing to speak English, immediately sending for their 40 to 50 million extended relatives telling them not to wait and obey the laws, the once mighty USA is theirs for the taking.
– Voted Yes on allowing illegal aliens to participate in Social Security.
– Wants to make the minimum wage a ‘living wage’.
– Voted with Democratic Part y 96 percent of 251 votes.
– Opposed to any efforts to Privatize Social Security and instead supports increasing the amount of tax paid.
– He voted No on repealing the Alternative Minimum Tax.
– He voted No on repealing the ‘Death’ Tax.
– He wants to raise the Capital Gains Tax.
– Has repeatedly said the surge in Iraq has not succeeded.
– He is ranked as the most liberal Senator in the Senate today and that takes some doing.
If your political choices are consistent with Barack Obama’s and you think that his positions will bring America together or make it a better place, then you will probably enjoy the ride and not forward this email. If you are like most Americans that after examining what he stands for, are truly not in line with his record, it would be prudent to get off the wave or better yet, never get on, before it comes on shore and undermines the very foundations of this great Country. We have limited time to save America or the Supreme Court as we know it. Inaction is action.
If you agree this is important, pass it on…. The mainstream media will not do it for you!
This guy is a danger to U.S. security and to us all!

Thanks for the great post.
We need to know the truth about Obama.
Obama has not provided records when asked by many
news sources such as Tim Russert, The Chicago Tribune,
and The Chicago Sun Times. He has only provided
lame excuses.
Obama used drugs when he was younger.
Obama has been accused of drug use in November 1999.
Robert Johnson, the founder of BET, stated:
“Barack Obama was doing something in the neighborhood - and I won’t
say what he was doing, but he said it in the book - when they have
been involved.”
Johnson apologized.
However, Obama spokesman Bill Burton stated:
“His tortured explanation doesn’t hold up against his original
statement.”
Obama was absent from the Illinois Senate
on November 4, 1999. His name was on 2 bills
mentioned during that session.
Does anyone know where Obama was on November 4?

Well, what can I say? I think that Obama is a real and present danger to these United States. No, I really could care less what he did as a youngster. Much as I really do not care that McCain was a hero. I care about the now, what is here in front of our faces. Just as one cannot rely on old Laural’s, one should not be judged solely by the past.
Both McCain and Obama are socialist in my opinion, as well as anti Constitution. Neither is acceptable. Not as Senators, and much less as President.
I truly fear for my nation. I think we are headed for another civil war, and I don’t mean social revolution, I mean the kind where people die.

I am not that concerned about the drug use when he was younger
except in the context of the big picture. His pattern of withholding
information, lies and hypocrisy worry me much more.

Also, as has recently been discovered, he is a stone cold collectivist. I can’t, so far, brand him a full blown communist, but he appears to be very close to that ideology.
So, the information wiggles, lies, and hypocrisy all fit the format.

I have read something about his being a collectivist.
I will do more research on this.
I do know that he is extremely liberal.

Heres some more about Obama:
Flashback: Obama slammed American ‘bootstrap myth’
Entered politics to advance true calling – building ‘collective institutions’

Barack Obama
When Barack Obama decided to enter politics in 1995, he saw it as a means to advance his true calling – mobilizing “collective action” to build “collective institutions” – and disparaged the “right wing” ideal of fostering reform through personal initiative as the “old individualistic bootstrap myth.”
The Dec. 8, 1995, interview by the Chicago Reader came shortly after his participation in Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan’s “Million Man March” in Washington, D.C., which Obama said reinforced his reason for becoming a politician.
“What I saw was a powerful demonstration of an impulse and need for African-American men to come together to recognize each other and affirm our rightful place in the society,” he said in the interview article, titled, “What makes Obama run?”
The Democratic senator’s controversial pastor and spiritual mentor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., traveled with Farrakhan to Libya in 1984 to meet with dictator Moammar Gadhafi. Last year, Wright’s Trumpet Newsmagazine gave Farrakhan the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award, because the Nation of Islam leader “truly epitomized greatness.”
Obama, as he began campaigning for the Illinois state Senate in 1995, said he primarily was running for office to fill a political and moral vacuum.
Interviewer Hank de Zutter wrote that Obama was “tired of seeing the moral fervor of black folks whipped up – at the speaker’s rostrum and from the pulpit – and then allowed to dissipate because there’s no agenda, no concrete program for change.”
Obama has refused to “disown” Wright after a self-described “firestorm” erupted last month when video excerpts of the pastor’s fervent anti-America and anti-white declarations from the pulpit were broadcast by Fox News and others.
In a January 2006 sermon, Wright called America the “No. 1 killer in the world” and blamed the country for launching the AIDS virus to maintain affluence at the expense of the Third World. The pastor reportedly said in a sermon just after 9/11, “The government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color.” In a 2003 sermon, Wright encouraged blacks to “damn America” in God’s name and blamed the U.S. for provoking the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks by dropping nuclear weapons on Japan in World War II and supporting Israel since 1947.
No John Wayne
Obama emphasized in the 1995 interview that black churches are “going it alone,” with pastors thinking only about how to build their churches. They have community-service programs, he said, such as food pantries, but “until they come together to build something bigger than an effective church all the community-service programs, all the food pantries they start will barely take care of even a fraction of the community’s problems.”
“In America,” Obama said, “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.”
Obama pondered what it would be like if a politician were to “see his job as that of an organizer, as part teacher and part advocate, one who does not sell voters short but who educates them about the real choices before them”
Obama said the “right wing, the Christian right” has done a better job of forming grass-roots activist organizations “than the left or progressive forces have.”
“But it’s always easier to organize around intolerance, narrow-mindedness and false nostalgia,” he said. “And they also have hijacked the higher moral ground with this language of family values and moral responsibility.”
Looking back at Obama’s high school years at the prestigious Punahou School in Hawaii, the Chicago publication noted “he encountered race and class prejudice that would darken his politics even more. At first embarrassed by his race and African name, he soon bonded with the few other African-American students.”
He quickly learned that integration was a one-way street, with blacks expected to assimilate into a white world that never gave ground. He participated in bitter bull sessions with his buddies on the theme of “how white folks will do you.”
The Chicago Reader said Obama had to reconcile those sentiments with the loving support he had at home from his white mother and grandparents and, quoting Obama, dismissed much of his buddies’ analysis as “the same sloppy thinking” used by racist whites.
But he found the racism of whites to be “particularly stubborn and obnoxious,” the Reader’s de Zutter wrote.
‘Mean, cruel times’
In the interview, Obama addressed the “unemployment catastrophe” among black youth, and declared any solution “must arise from us working creatively within a multicultural, interdependent and international economy.”
While he praised Farrakhan’s “Million Man March,” he said organizers lacked “a positive agenda, a coherent agenda for change.”
“Any African-Americans who are only talking about racism as a barrier to our success are seriously misled if they don’t also come to grips with the larger economic forces that are creating economic insecurity for all workers – whites, Latinos, and Asians,” he said. “We must deal with the forces that are depressing wages, lopping off people’s benefits right and left, and creating an earnings gap between CEOs and the lowest-paid worker that has risen in the last 20 years from a ratio of 10 to 1 to one of better than 100 to 1.
Clarifying, Obama said he didn’t mean to suggest “that the need to look inward emphasized by the march isn’t important and that these African-American tribal affinities aren’t legitimate.”
“These are mean, cruel times, exemplified by a ‘lock ’em up, take no prisoners’ mentality that dominates the Republican-led Congress,” he said. “Historically, African-Americans have turned inward and towards black nationalism whenever they have a sense, as we do now, that the mainstream has rebuffed us, and that white Americans couldn’t care less about the profound problems African-Americans are facing.
“But cursing out white folks is not going to get the job done,” he continued. “Anti-Semitic and anti-Asian statements are not going to lift us up. We’ve got some hard nuts-and-bolts organizing and planning to do. We’ve got communities to build.”
