How Obama manipulates the media and uses White Guilt to turn the Constitution on its head in fulfilling his vision for an American USSR
May 12, 2010

Over the years, the one Washington trait most sickening to America is the 'usual way of doing business.' All 'business as usual' accomplished was landing us in a financial crater from which we may never emerge; for that, we can thank George W. Bush, and especially Barack Obama.

The mega-trillion dollar financial hole in which we now reside came about because two chief executives have no measurable knowledge of responsible governance. Most people over 40 undoubtedly remember that when the stock market lost 22 percent of its value in a single trading session of 6½ hours back in 1987, the banks did not ask for help, nor did President Reagan offer any. The movers and shakers knew they screwed up and took their lumps; unaided, the economy quickly recovered. The alleged 'recovery' taking place now is at best a watered-down version of what we would be enjoying, were it not for governmental meddling and interference. Ronald Reagan said it best at his 1981 inauguration, "In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem." This wisdom seems to have been completely ignored by the current group of misfits presently holding the White House under siege.
Whereas Reagan allowed free market forces to right its own ship, Team Obama is bound and determined to keep as many banks chained to them as possible, so as to effect a de-facto nationalization of the United States banking system, all as part of his insatiable need for power and control, in much the same manner as cartoon characters Pinky and the Brain. Such also brings with it an eerie resemblance to the worst qualities of both characters. Obama seems to have Brain's ears, and Pinky's intelligence, in other words, a complete lack thereof, as it pertains to what makes America the greatest success story in world history. It's not about governance with Obama and his string-pullers; it's about control, pure and simple.
Rather than rely on traditional 'common sense', Obama has thrown all caution to the wind and is pursuing - with a vengeance - his own vision of the Soviet Union, only in this case it would the United States Socialist Republics (USSR). Obama looks upon the Constitution as nothing more than Kleenex to wipe his nose, or worse, as toilet paper, as so aptly illustrated in any of a number of images available online (right).
First, Obama went after General/Government Motors and Chrysler, and for lack of a better word, nationalized two-thirds of the American car industry by way of 'bailout'. He also ran through Congress by way of whatever leverage he could assemble, a nationalized health care plan, despite the well-known fact that the models of Canada and Great Britain - heavily hyped by Candidate Obama as models of success - and which are now facing potential insolvency because of a fatally-flawed economic model run by government accountants and not by health care providers with patient advocates and other appropriate checks and balances. Such a notion of checks and balances repulses this current administration, more so than in the Clinton administration. Team Obama does as they please, without regard to the rule of law or established legal protocols.
On legislative matters, Obama bullied Congress into going along with his agenda; to include offering bribes and kickbacks like the 'Cornhusker Kickback' and other multi-million dollar bones thrown both at Ben Nelson and Louisiana's Mary Landrieu. When Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY) refused to 'go along', Obama's leg-breaker-in-chief Rahm Emmanuel engaged in a power play that forced Massa from the House in disgrace prior to the vote. It is not at all surprising the White House sat on that information until its use became convenient for them. Again, my point here is how a whole lot of Americans - in addition to myself - are tired of the 'business as usual' and 'pay-to-play' philosophies of both parties that has driven our nation to the edge of ruin.
These are the antics that set in place the wheels for the birth of the modern Tea Party, which like its colonial counterpart, had said 'Enough!'; and it is people like those in the Modern Tea Party who will again rescue this nation from the gross ineptitude, recklessness and lawlessness that seems to ooze both from the White House and the halls of Congress, and which now threatens to contaminate the Supreme Court through the nomination of an unqualified Elena Kagan to its ranks.
And this is one nomination that MUST NOT be allowed to secure Senate approval. ***
