Barack Obama and his minions will not be satisfied until all Americans are made dependents upon an all-powerful Federal government, which compels them to come bowl in hand begging for government gruel. More and more Americans are waking up to the radicalism of Obama and the socialist Democrat Congress, who intend to bankrupt the country in the believe that doing so will result in the nation demanding massive redistribution of wealth and property among an impoverished people. We are governed by a collection of fanatics, headed by a rabid socialist who believes his destiny is the remaking of America along more "fair" and "equitable" division of wealth. When you accept, as Obama does, that the wealthy and successful among us became so thorough some sort of moral theft from the less well off, then it becomes a moral duty to be attained via government intervention to extort from one to give to the other. Of course history has taught us repeatedly that such efforts lead to (1) the flight of wealth and talent from the country, resulting in (2) general decline in living standards, (2) as well as increased authoritarian government regulation, all leading to (3) eventual economic collapse. For liberals, however, history is a subject not to be learned from but to be ignored. To them, each past failure results not from the fallacy of the underlying premise but from some failure of execution, hence, this time, IT WILL WORK!
Fanatics are impervious to history, facts or reason. The world exists as they imagine it and nothing and no one will convince them otherwise. Obama is just such a fanatic, which makes him by far the most dangerous man in America. There will be no more to the center for him. Moving to the center would be an act of apostasy, a betrayal of true faith of socialism. This is not say that he will not pretend to moderate, but, as any student of the old Soviet Union can tell you, deception, lying and pretense are all acceptable means to accomplish the ultimate objective. Indeed, Obama has already demonstrated his ability to pull the wool over the eyes of the American people in his campaign for the presidency. Let us pray that the public is no longer willing to fall for smooth phrases in modulated tones which, when not saying anything of substance, are in fact intended to deceive.
