I've now learned that I'm an enemy of the state. You see, I'm a Christian and a member of a church. In Obama's leftist America, that makes me an enemy. Add in that I'm a conservative and I may be carted off to the gulag any moment.
As was predictable, any criticism of Obama is now labeled racist. Don't like his tie? Racist. Think he needs to freshen up his breath? Racist. Pitches a baseball poorly? Racist. It was foolish to believe that the election of a black president would usher us into the new age of racial harmony. On the contrary, polls reflect that in excess of 90% of black Americans support Obama, while support from other racial groups tumbles. Black Americans, understandably, are emotionally invested in Obama, and so any criticism aggravates the exposed nerve of race consciousness. Leftists of all colors seize on Obama's race in the attempt to silence opposition to this socialist agenda. The leftists dream of being able to silence conservative talk radio and conservative commentators on television and print. Remember, these are people who view the Constitution as a thing to be circumvented or ignored. Seizing control of key industries, silencing political opposition, these are standard operating procedure for Bolsheviks. They also count of the basic passivity of the populace to let them get away with it. They have made the calculation that the Tea party movement, conservatives and others, for all their sound and fury, are only that: sound and fury, followed by grudging acceptance of the status quo. Are they right?
As I have written on this blog many times, Barack Obama is the first president in history to hate the country which elected him. As when an old building is demolished to make way for the new structure, so Barack Obama is intent to destroy America as exists today and replace it with an America made in his image, in which labor unions conscript members by force of law, formerly illegal immigrants vote for leftist candidates in perpetuity, and the government redistributes your money to favored client groups. Throw in the betrayal of long time allies and the abandonment of Israel and you get the picture. Obama's America will bear a striking resemblance to today's Venezuela with the fast track to Cuba.
There is no one to blame for this situation except the American people. We (of at least the majority who voted) elected Obama and the Bolshevik Democrat congress which is showering us with this abominable legislation. People ignored the clear warning signs and voted for "hope and change." Well, we certainly have gotten change but I'd have to dispute the hope part. I guess it is a great day if you prefer Karl Marx to Groucho Marx, Vladimir Lenin to John Lennon, and Barack Obama to Thomas Jefferson.
The next congressional election will be the most important one in American history. Quite literally, the fate of the republic will at stake. On one side is a future of regimentation, appropriation, social engineering, and serfdom; on the other is the chance to stop this and lay the foundation to reverse the present downward spiral and defeat the curse of Obamism.
