Obama-care ... the new healthcare reform

Obama gave us taunts, insults and attacks from the bully pulpit

“Part of the undertow in the coming election is going to be, uh, President Obama’s leadership. And the Republicans would make a case, and a lot of Independents will buy this argument, listen, he just hasn’t been, I mean look at the health care bill, his number one priority and it took him forever to get it through and he had to compromise it to death and a version of… listen, he’s a nice person and he’s very articulate, this is what’s going to be used against him, but he couldn’t sell watermelons if you gave him a state trooper and he lied down in traffic.” - 3/7/10 - Disgraced ex-journalist Dan Rather speculating on what a failure to pass health care legislation would mean for Obama.

n the wake of their arguably “successful” and overwhelmingly unpopular government takeover of the US health care system, which also succeeded in hopelessly dividing the entire country, you’d think that if Barack Obama and Democrats were interested at all in governing, rather than enslaving us through a Chicago-style dictatorship, they’d tone down their rhetorical attacks just a bit. But, recent events indicate they have no intention of doing so and that the attacks are increasing.

Since his campaign, Democrats have tried on several occasions to label opposition to specific Obama policy decisions as the unfortunate by-product of vehement, deep-seated racism. These baseless accusations have continued to surface every so often, whenever Democrats feel vulnerable. And, as the debate over health care wore on, it became increasingly clear that, although they may win the policy fight, Democrats already lost the debate long ago. So, the racist attacks began.

First, they manufactured that pathetic spectacle for the cameras where black House Democrats marched arm-in-arm with Nancy Pelosi to the capitol, through jeering crowds, trying to equate protesters of her trillion-dollar lies and chicanery with the turbulence of the African-American struggle for equality back in the 1960s.

Then there was the incident where Rep. Emanuel Cleaver was allegedly spat on. Although dissenting opinions abound, the video that I saw never showed him immediately wipe someone else’s saliva from his face, glasses or anywhere else, as one instinctively would if they were spat upon intentionally. What I saw was the Congressman react by ducking his head when an angry protester cupped his hands and yelled at the top of his lungs mere inches from his ear as well as a female police officer and then, when he realized a camera was rolling, pretend to wipe something off of his face.

Although his election was a numerical impossibility without white, independent voters, Slanderer-In-Chief Barack Obama is unfortunately not above the fray, having recently engaged in a bit of race-baiting himself. Cognizant of how angry the electorate was after they were forced to accept his un-Constitutional expansion of federal power, he embarked on a slew of campaign stops that were ostensibly designed to convince skeptical Americans of the merits of ObamaCare. What we got instead were more taunts, insults and attacks from the bully pulpit, with Obama daring opponents to repeal the legislation and mocking those who believe that he pledged to uphold the US Constitution instead of wiping with it after Chris Matthews is done kissing his behind.

Matthews continues to attribute racist motives to Constitutional conservatives who oppose Obama, yet he couldn’t even feign surprise during his March 7, 2010 show when disgraced ex-journalist Dan Rather opined that Obama"Couldn’t sell watermelons if you gave him a state trooper and he lied(sic) down in traffic.”

Mr. Obama has also given interviews of late, characterizing those who oppose his policies as racist, conspiracy nuts who actually oppose him because of his skin color (which I’d like to remind you is half-white) or because (according to Obama) he wasn’t born in this country, a blatant misrepresentation of the argument made by so-called “birthers” about his eligibility. As one of those so-called birthers, I question, not whether Barack Obama was born in the US, but whether his birth, wherever that was, qualifies him as a “natural-born” US citizen, as only “natural born” citizens qualify to be president.

Not content with a few cheap shots, Obama and Democrats have now embarked on a smear campaign the likes of which we’ve never seen. Anyone who questions Obama’s motives or agenda, anyone who is associated with the Tea Party movement and anyone who disapproves of his installation of a socialist dictatorship with its “carrot and stick” approach is to be labeled as a violent racist.

Democrats seem to be operating on the premise that if you can’t silence the message, just shoot the messenger. Unfortunately for them, there are simply too many Paul Reveres this time. Too many voices to silence and too many Americans who still believe in their Constitution to allow this garbage to continue. I’m not shutting up, I’m not intimidated by a deaf congress, executive thuggery, or baseless charges of racism. I can articulate specific socialist policy decisions I disagree with and which provisions of our founding documents these policies violate. And my voice, along with millions of others, will be heard louder than ever in November. Until then, if you have any concrete evidence that my opposition to Obama’s objectionable policies is based on anything other than his Marxism, then put it out there for the world to see. Otherwise, I suggest you shut your pie hole.
