For the many times I've posted my thoughts and shared my newly found information, I never before have thought about 'why I do it?' Lately I have realized most of it was for myself, working through the many facts, lies and innuendo that present possibilities for change in ways not expected.
That said, here I sit re-reading the quote from Senator Obama, and his take on the constitution. Now I fear for my country if this man gets elected President and is let lose upon us with the likes of Representative Pelosi and Senator Reid. Barack Hussein Obamas socialism isn't to be taken lightly like Jimmy Carters, he is an activist with a messiah complex, like Hitler, Castro and Chavez.
I've heard from Europe's fine posters on the BBC, that they like this guy Obama, and America would be foolish not to embrace him, but they are not Americans, don't understand Americans, never lived the life we have,... gotten the goosebumps during the national anthem, teared at the unknown soldiers graveside for what they sacrificed, prayed for the president, your country and your blessings.
To get to the point, Barry Obamas Quote:
"[T]he Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth and sort of more basic issues of political and economic justice in this society.
And to that extent as radical as people tried to characterize the Warren court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution, at least as it’s been interpreted, and the Warren court interpreted it in the same way that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties.
It says what the states can’t do to you, it says what the federal government can’t do to you, but it doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf. And that hasn’t shifted.
One of the I think tragedies of the civil rights movement was because the civil rights movement became so court focused, I think that there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributed change and in some ways we still suffer from that."
Do note the italic of his 'plan to keep track' of political organising, think rebellion of the status quo and activities, think protest, marchs and militant, and about the redistributed change, think Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge, Vietnams National Liberation League, and in some ways we still suffer that, think of being non communist.
Bob Dylan said it so well long ago, "The times they are a changing", for what we have now may soon be "Blowing in the wind", but, "I am a boxer, a fighter by trade".
Doug, you seem very down. I know you are greatly concerned, but please remember the number one truth about politicians. They are incapable of putting into practice what they claim. Your fears about Reid & Pelosi are therefore unlikely to be fully realised.
ReplyDeleteSoemthing is bound to come along to derail them - for instance, an urgent need to set up an inquiry about the price of dogfood, or an investigation into how the Phillies could possibly have won the world series.
Anyway, it's about time those two started campaigning for re-election, so they won't be seen in congress much soon.
