Obama the Opposite of Lincoln, Kennedy

The illusion-creators who crafted a pre-Presidential logo and brought in the Greek-column backdrop for the Democratic Presidential candidate, Barack Obama, before the election have also tried to convince you that Mr. Obama is like President John F. Kennedy, and the great President Abraham Lincoln.

We see something far different. In fact, we see that Mr. Obama is the opposite of each of these Presidents of the United States. And we will tell you why.

Whereas President Kennedy said, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country," Mr. Obama's election rhetoric as well as his actions since taking the job in the White House seem to say something quite different; his motto-for-the-masses can more accurately be summarized as this: "Ask not what you can do for your country, but what your country can do for you."

With lobbyists popping out of the woodwork rushing into the Treasury Department for a handout and mayors from around the country flocking to Washington D.C. like seagulls to a biscuit to get in on Obama's great generousity, Mr. Obama has composed himself to be the Great Mother of us all, and his government the one to turn to for all of your needs. Never mind taking care of yourself. Never mind behaving in a responsible manner. Never mind consequences for your own choices. Never mind ambition and all the hard work everybody else does. Obama wants to control the pie in the sky and give you your morsel.

And don't ask him or his circle of power to be responsible; no, they are the ones who will be holding the Inquisitions. Yesterday Sean Hannity played some audio of some Democratic leaders grilling corporate executives for possible indiscretians and mis-use of money related to the failure of Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac. Then he played audio from a few years ago when conservatives pointed out that Fanny and Freddie were in trouble due to liberal mandates on the banks to loan money for housing to people who could not afford it. It was the same Democratic voices. Except, instead of drilling executives and holding them accountable, these SAME Democtatic leaders were the very ones testifying to Congress about how Freddy and Fanny were not in trouble and that accusations that it was were ridiculous and unfounded...

I hope you understand what that said. It said that a.) the Democrats are responsible for the housing crash, and, hence the current economic condition b.) that conservatives saw the problem, tried to stop it, but were shouted down by ignorant Democratic leaders c.) that those same [ignorant] Democratic leaders who defended Freddy and Fanny and prevented a solution to the problem several years ago, are now smugly and self-righteously blaming others for the failure.

Yes, we are beginning to see what our government can do for you...

And while some are dazed by the infatuation that Obama is like Kennedy, others are deluded to ponder that Obama might be like President Lincoln.

Except that, whereas President Lincoln freed those who were enslaved, Mr. Obama is seeking to enslave those who are free.

Mr. Obama, reckoning himself to be like the Great Emancipator, is rather the Great Enslaver, for he is seeking to shackle free people with unsurmountable government debt, to wrap the cloak of socialized governmental control deeper into areas of your life, and to restrict your responsible choices to what government says you can do.

This government is rewarding recklessness, lawlessness and laziness and punishing uprightness, effort and hard work.

Can there be any doubt that the fox is in the hen-house? That the kids are in charge of the candy store? That the Jason of Socialism which we fought against for 50 years has resurrected himself and is alive and well on this Friday the 13th and is sitting in the White House?

This is way past fantasy and farce, it is now turning fatal. It's time to pull back the shower curtain and expose that Mother, Mr. Obama, and his thugs and cronies for what he and they are...a wicked, selfish and desperate danger to the well-being and future of the people of the United States of America.
