Here’s a reminder of just who that guy in Barack Hussein Obama’s neighborhood is.
You know, Bill Ayers, the domestic terrorist in whose home The Anointed One launched His political career.
Larry Grathwohl went undercover for the FBI with The Weather Underground, the domestic terrorist group headed by Ayers and Bernandine Dohrn, another close, personal friend of The Messiah.
Remember what we said repeatedly about birds of a feather flocking together.
This video was posted prior to the November 2008 election. The state-run media, intent on getting this radical elected president, chose not to connect all the dots between Obama and the likes of Ayers, Dohrn, Jeremiah Wright, Michae Pfleger, Frank Marshall Davis, et al.
YouTube has some of the hilarious Budweiser Real Men of Genius ads, alternatively called Real American Heroes. These are some of the funniest beer ads in the post-Lite Beer from Miller Tastes Great/Less Filling era.
With unbound arrogance and a naivete more suited to a first-year world history student, the current occupant of the White House set aside his oath of office at the United Nations today. Having done that, he proceeded to pick up the dangerous mantle of world functionary and global celebrity destined to leave the world in an alarming heap whenever his most unfortunate, but unavoidable term in office expires, or he’s forced out …
As the Americans that we are and have always been, we’ll endure this pathetic stain walking across the Oval Office carpet for the remainder of his four years. And I imagine he will actually see chains of a sort when his political party is ravaged in 2010. Only then can a new Republican Congress compose itself to rein in this foolish attempt to apologize for America’s past sins.
Until that time, as loyal and patriotic Americans, we should have only two goals: to endure the unthoughtful shame and suffering of having this inexperienced, undemocratic boy king in the White House; and preparing to vanquish as many Democrats from Congress as we can in 2010.
That and nothing else is the only acceptable and ultimately American way of dealing with the tragic American political mistake Barack Obama truly is.
And people wonder why the Right reacted the way it did when The Anointed One announced His plan to address students in schools across the United States along with a complete set of lesson plans designed by His radicals in the White House complete with directions to students as to how they could best serve Him.
Here’s example No. 1. Children being indoctrinated to sing praises to Barack Hussein Obama. The video is going viral on YouTube and appears here via Founding Bloggers:
These kids are being forced to memorize and recite a bunch of pro-Obama garbage for a rap song, something the Founding Bloggers correctly labels “intellectual child abuse.”
Obama/Jesus comparisons- “Red and yellow; black and white…they are equal in his sight.” (Him being Obama). These lyrics may sound familiar to Sunday school alumni.
Familiar from this:
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Red and yellow
Black and white
They are precious in His sight.
Jesus loves the little children
Of the world.
The Messiah. Our Lord and Savior. The Second Coming of Christ. The Chocolate Jesus. The Anointed One. The Christos.
I realize that some of my readers are upset with my generous use of sarcastic messianic references to Barack Obama, somehow viewing it as an insult to the real Messiah and Christianity. Couple of things worth noting: first, God invented humor, including sarcasm. I believe He understands. Second, with whoever writing this silly verse and whomever is having the children memorize it equating Obama to Jesus Christ, how can anyone say the sarcasm is over the top? Folks, you can’t make stuff like this up.
These kids are a captive audience. Unlike, say, a college student sitting in a classroom with some Marxist professor spewing nonsense, these kids cannot get up and walk out, and they do not have the life experience to recognize the Joseph Goebbels-like efforts of one of The Messiah’s strongest supporters in the National Extortion Association.
Update via Michelle Malkin: more info on the individual responsible for this despicable piece of agitprop at the Bernice Franks Elementary School in New Jersey.
She’s Charisse Carey-Nunes. Malkin notes:
Carney-Nunes is senior vice president of The Jamestown Project, “the award-winning author of the children’s books, I Am Barack Obama (2009),” and according to her biography, “a graduate of Harvard Law School, where she was a schoolmate of President Obama.”
Oh, since Carey-Nunes is taking this project to other communities, it could be coming soon to a school near you. No word as to whether parents were advised that their kids would be used as political props.
Malkin has e-mailed the following questions to the school principal:
Did Ms. Carney-Nunes have permission to videotape the performance?
Were parents notified that their children would be participating in this activity prior to the lesson?
Was Ms. Carney-Nunes invited to the school to teach the children the song and about her book, “I am Barack Obama?”
Was the principal aware of this event and taping?
A “yes” answer to any of those questions should have required the parents be given advance notification and the opportunity to raise objections to the use of kids as political props to advance the socialist agenda and be brainwashed into singing praises to Dear Leader.
Quite frankly, I question whether this was appropriate to be allowed into the school at all.
I sat through a presentation last week to a group of fourth and fifth graders on student government in which the two teachers running it mentioned Obama’s name no fewer than 10 times in a 20 minute presentation, just glowing with pride that this Marxist son of a bitch was elected president.
At one point, one of them asked if I had anything to add, at which point I stood up and, while encouraging the kids to look into student government, fired off the line about politicians and diapers being pretty much the same thing, that both needed to be changed often for the same reason. The kids laughed, but if looks from the other adults could kill, you could have attended my funeral. The one running the presentation just said, “OK …” I sat back down with a self-satisfied smile.
Item No. 2 comes from BizzyBlog via Michelle Malkin. This is from New Trier, Ill., High School. This e-mail was sent to parents without sufficient time to mount any campaign to oppose the indoctrination of New Trier freshmen:
Having watched President Obama’s Speech on Education, the Northfield Leadership Team has decided to take up the teachable moment and to discuss with our freshmen the significant messages inherent in his speech. In our attempt to educate the whole child, we talk often about responsibility, work ethic, creativity, critical thinking, problem solving, goal setting, service learning, commitment, and a safe and respectful learning environment. To hear the President of the United States acknowledge these themes in education enhances what we are teaching at the Northfield campus. We believe that the freshman year is the perfect time to begin these conversations.
On Friday of this week the freshmen will have an extended adviser room of 45 minutes. At that time President Obama’s speech will be shown and a discussion, facilitated by the adviser, will take place. We are excited about creating a safe environment where multiple perspectives can be heard. There will also be follow-up discussions in World History classes on that day.
Possible discussion questions for the students on Friday are:
Why do you think President Obama listed the responsibilities of teachers, parents, and the government before discussing your responsibility for your education? What does this highlight for you, the audience?
What are you “good at” and what do you have “to offer” your family, friends, and community?
What could you do here at New Trier that will help you continue to do these things well?
At the beginning of freshman year, it is important to start thinking about what direction your life will take. How do President Obama’s words, “write your own destiny” and “make your own future” apply to you right now?
In the speech, President Obama spoke of some of the steps of Effective Effort. Identify them, using direct quotations from the text to support your assertions.
Respond to President Obama’s final questions for you: “What’s your contribution going to be? What problems are you going to solve? What discoveries will you make? What will a president who comes here in 20 or 50 or 100 years say about what all of you did for this country?”
Thank you, in advance, for allowing us the opportunity to have these meaningful discussions. We would encourage you to continue these important conversations at home.
Jan Borja, Principal
Paul Waechtler, Assistant Principal
What in the hell is this obsession with these “teachable moments” with this collection of 1960s radicals?
BizzyBlog notes:
Given the Obama worship present at “the other NEA” (National Education Association), parents can’t afford to stop paying attention to what their kids are being “taught.” As has been said by generations of authoritarians, “Get ‘em while they’re young.”
Dr. Laurie Roth takes a look here at how critical controlling the children will be to Obama’s ability to control the future, kind of like another despot:
Hitler had it nailed down. He knew that youth were the future, more teachable and moldable. The adults of Germany remembered living under democracy and might not be so easily fooled by Hitler’s slams against democracy. Remember, Hitler was a socialist voted into power by a democracy! Does this sound familiar anyone? Can you think of any other country that as a republic or democracy voted in a socialist who wants control and power? Gee………
Hitler’s steps and strategy to control the nations youth is classic and if we are not careful will unfold right before our eyes with our own children.
Finally, there is this from Smart Girl Nation via Michelle Malkin. More indoctrination not from Obama’s classroom speech but his shrill, partisan campaign speech chock full of lies to Congress.
The daughters of one of the SGN contributors brought this assignment home, having been given it at her school:
No balance. No contrasting views. No differing opinions. Nothing but the presumption that every word that flowed out of the mouth of Our Lord and Savior that night was the Gospel truth.
Uh, Joe Wilson had it right. “You lie!” And Obama did just that. repeatedly. It’s getting easy to tell when He is lying. Like telling when Jim Doyle is lying. His lips are moving.
Time to re-post the classic Pink Floyd video, Another Brick In The Wall:
The latest entity under the Barack Hussein Obama bus was the nation of Israel, thrown under by Our Lord and Savior in His speech to the U(seless) N(itwits) today. From Fox News via Gateway Pundit:
In declaring that it is time for Middle East peace “without preconditions,” President Obama used his speech to the U.N. General Assembly Wednesday to fire a warning at Israel that “America does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements.”
Obama’s stark declaration, which drew applause, was coupled with a call for Palestinians to end their “incitement of Israel.”
But it was the use of the U.N. forum to carry the settlement message to Israel that drew the most enthusiastic response on the floor — and incredulous reaction outside its walls.
Obama just put Israel “on the chopping block,” said former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton.
Israel now stands alone agains her enemies which now clearly include the United States.
This, by the way, on top of the stunning comments over the weekend by Obama adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski, former secretary of state under what is now Our. Second. Worst. President. Ever. in Jimmy Carter that the U.S. is considering shooting down Israeli jets should they attempt to take out Iran’s nuclear weapons sites.
That’s effectively a declaration of war on Israel. Clearly, the Chocolate Jesus has no problems with Iran having nuclear weapons, even though Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (pronounced “I’m A Nutjob”) has stated his clear intentions of a world without Israel and the U.S.
[C]onjure the image — the Obama administration sending U.S. aircraft up to protect Iran’s airspace and it’s nuclear installations from an attack by a democracy that is one of America’s closest allies. Unfortunately, this may not be so hard to imagine in Israel, where the number of people who believe Obama is pro-Israel is at just 4 percent — and falling. And given Obama’s (literally) submissive posture to the Saudis, his indulgence of the Iranians, and his simultaneously hard-line approach to Israel, it seems even some of Obama’s supporters can savor the possibility of a “reverse Liberty.”
This is a watershed mark in U.S. history: a American president born a Muslim, raised a Muslim, educated for awhile in Muslim schools, claiming no longer to be a Muslim yet acting solidly from Day One in Muslim interests. Honoring Muslim holidays at the White House while ignoring Judeo-Christian ones. Now throwing the Jewish nation, one of our longest, best allies, under the bus to appease the Muslim world. Don’t forget, He was seen genuflecting, bowing in submission to one of the leaders of that Muslim world earlier this year.
Draw your own conclusions.
Just wondering … what do the overwhelming number of Jews in America that voted for The Anointed One feel about this? Are Jews in America more secular and tied to leftwing causes and to some extent feel guilty about the nation of Israel?
He’ll throw America under the bus to appease His friends in the Muslim world as well.
For the first time, independent voters — who delivered Mr. Obama the White House and Democrats control of Congress — disapprove of the job he is doing, by 46% compared with the 41% who approve. In July, 49% of independents approved of the president, against 38% who disapproved.
New doubts about the president have coincided with new hopes for Republicans, who appeared flattened by the election nearly a year ago.
As the 2010 election cycle heats up, independent voters now favor Republican control of Congress by four percentage points.
That’s good news for a party blasted out of the water in the last two election cycles.
And as Margaret Thatcher told President George H. W. Bush prior to the Gulf War, now is not the time to go wobbly. Now is not the time to go soft and seek bipartisan solutions, which in Washington-speak means Republicans giving in and agreeing with Democrats.
Offer solutions, yes, but say, “Not just no, but HELL NO!” to the socialism of Obama and the Democrats.
Another factor coming into play here is the blatant smearing of these independents by the White House and its minions as being … 5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1 … Raaaaacist! for opposing The Messiah and His socialist agenda. These are the very same people who voted for Him last November; now all of a sudden they are raaaaacist! for having buyer’s remorse when He’s turned out to be not what they expected?
The White House and congressional Democrats have doubled down on the race card and it’s a guaranteed losing strategery.
Seems like ObamaCare is a sweetheart deal to the American Association of Retired Persons, a leftwing advocacy group committed to advancing socialism while selling out the best interests of its members.
One of the subplots to the health care debate I’ve been following is the cozy relationship between AARP and the Obama administration, as the group has thrown its full-throated support behind the Democrats’ health care push even though their membership comes from the age group most opposed to Democratic health care proposals. Today, House Republicans have issued a report providing evidence that AARP is in a position to recieve tens of millions of dollars in “kickbacks” if Democratic health care legislation becomes law.
President Obama and Democrats have proposed saving money to pay for health care legislation, in part, by cutting $162 billion in payments to Medicare Advantage, which allows Medicare recipients to choose privately-administered coverage. If these changes go through, millions of seniors who have chosen Medicare Advantage would lose their current coverage, forcing them into government-administered plans with less generous benefits. As a result, many of them would have to purchase policies to supplement traditional Medicare. Enter AARP.
In 2008, AARP generated $652.7 million in revenue by selling products like Medigap supplemental Medicare insurance, accounting for over 60 percent of the group’s revenue, according to an analysis of its financial statements cited in the GOP report.
If the House Democrats health care bill becomes law, the report argues, it would be a boon to AARP, because while Medicare Advantage plans will be required to pay out 85 percent of the money collected in premiums to claims made by policy holders, the requirement would only be 65 percent for the kind of Medigap policies sold by AARP.
“In other words, under the Democrat bill, seniors could pay as much as 20 cents more out of every premium dollar to fund ‘kickbacks’ to AARP-sponsored Medigap plans than Medicare Advantage plans,” the GOP report charges.
A nice sweet kickback to AARP. No wonder they can sell out their members and play cutesy little games as to whether or not they endorse ObamaCare. Of course they do, but they don’t want to admit it, because their membership is against it.
Oh, Klein also reports that AARP was exempted from the gag order that produced the federal investigation of Humana instigated by Sen. Max Baucus.
In the past weeks you’ve heard me talk about the How to Take Back America Conference being held in St. Louis this Friday, Sept. 25, and Saturday, Sept. 26, with speakers like: Gov. Mike Huckabee, “Joe the Plumber,” U.S. Reps. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., Trent Franks, R-Ariz., Steve King, R-Iowa, Tom McClintock, R-Calif., Dr. Tom Price, R-Ga., and Three-Star Gen. Jerry Boykin. But someone who’ll be there that you didn’t hear about is Kitty Werthmann. Kitty was 12 years old when Adolf Hitler was elected fuhrer of Austria.
She is 83 with a “vivid memory” of what happened in her homeland next. She witnessed the government take over the banks and the auto industry. Sound familiar? In the last nine months, Obama and the Democrats in Congress have successfully orchestrated the government takeover of Chrysler and General Motors along with countless banks.
She witnessed the “compulsory youth” service and indoctrination. That sounds a little like Obama’s call for “mandatory volunteerism” for America’s youth.
The government takeover of the schools immediately replaced crucifixes with pictures of Hitler and Nazi flags. “All religious instruction was replaced with physical education,” said Werthmann. No prayer was allowed. That all happened here decades ago. It is interesting, however, that Obama’s speech to the captive audience in the government schools – complete with the essay assignment about how students could help him achieve his political goals – was replaced once the American people got wind of it. And speaking of government control of education, if the Senate agrees, all student loans will be government issued, according to a bill that passed the House last week.
The assault on free speech and especially dissent and any sources of dissent should frighten anyone who hasn’t consumed the Obama Kool-Aid:
“The media was taken over by the government right away,” Kitty recalls. “We got free radios and the radio stations were government-run. If you listened to a foreign radio station like the BBC, there was capital punishment,” said Werthmann.
They had Joseph Goebbels; we have Mark Lloyd, the diversity czar, who is already poised to shut down private radio stations like his hero Hugo Chavez did – threatening licenses and waging outrageous fines on stations (up to $25 million dollars) who say things he doesn’t like.
“We heard only what was on the radio,” she said. “We couldn’t get information from anywhere.” Kind of like we’ll be if the government takes over not only radio, but the Internet, as well. Senate bills 773 and 778, introduced by Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., would do just that – handing over control of one of our last bastions of free speech to none other than Barack Obama.
But now, Obama is poised to “bail out the newspaper industry,” ushering in an official “state-run media.” Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., has already introduced S. 673, the so-called “Newspaper Revitalization Act,” providing the means. While most in the media already tow the official state line, Obama doesn’t like those unruly blogs. It’s a lot easier when you can silence people like Rep. Joe Wilson for speaking out against you – and then outlawing accurate words like “lie” from being said on the House floor.
Read the whole thing. Are we really that far away from what Kitty Werthmann can recall?
Remember: in an American Idol election, America elected a cult leader rather than a president, a cult leader to whom many lobotomized Americans in a trance have pledged to serve. This is unprecedented in U.S. history.
And as we’ve detailed here, in terms of the economy, we are rapidly plunging toward Weimar Republic territory.
Is it really so far-fetched to imagine a narcissist with a messianic complex doing the previously unimaginable?
Here’s video via Founding Bloggers of a Health Care for America Now counter-protest in St. Louis.
There must be all of 30 people present. Astroturfed in, given pre-printed signs.
That’s it.
Of course, this will be portrayed as widespread public support in the state-run media. Wanna bet carefully edited photos will be used to make the 30 or so people look like hundreds if not thousands?
It’s like when you get a gathering of six 60s-style hippies and hippie wannabes protesting and the number of TV and newspaper reporters outnumber the protestors.
As Founding Bloggers says … Can you say epic FAIL? Yes. I. Can.
Over at Gateway Pundit, Jim Hoft highlights the obvious astroturfing effort in the form of handing out pre-made signs.
Via The Perfessor himself, John McAdams of Marquette University, let’s contrast the so-called hate signs allegedly seen at the 9/12 Tea Party against some real hate signs, shall we?
The PuffHo lists the 10 Most “Offensive” Signs from the 9/12 rally. John Perazzo of Real News Blog lists them:
“Obama’s Plan: White Slavery”
“The American taxpayers are the Jews for Obama’s ovens”
“Our tax $ given to Hamas to Kill Christians, Jews, & Americans”
“Obama: What you talking about Willis? Spend my money?”
“Obama loves taxes, bankrupt USA, loves baby killing”
“Barack Hussein Obama: The new face of Hitler”
“Barack Obama supports abortion, sodomy, socialism, and the New World Order”
“Obama was not bowing [to the Saudi king]. He was sucking Saudi jewels.”
Never mind that the “new face of Hitler” sign was probably a Lyndon LaRouche supporter like at other anti-government rallies. There’s really nothing offensive here. Certainly nothing full of hate, racism, extremism.
