Liberty For All

“A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves.”

- Betrand de Juvenal

Actor and political activist Charlton Heston addressed the 1999-2000 Arizona State Legislature by stating prophetic words that were to forever change the implementation of free speech in our nation.  He said, “Political correctness is just tyranny with manners,” and implored legislators to replace political correctness with courage and to say what they truly believe rather than edit their words to pacify reactionaries.  He told them that if they allowed bureaucracy to straitjacket them, government would simply become cowards because political correctness would force social conformation and silence not only legislators, but the voice of truth in general.  Tragically for America, his dread for the future has come true and every area of our lives is controlled by this evil cloud that hovers above us all.  Say something politically incorrect and there are too often dire consequences.

The effects of “political correctness” are prevalent in the 2008 elections and very well may result in electing a person whose true agenda and even the facts of his childhood are kept from the public because anyone expressing the true nature of his views and life would be subjected to unbearable tirades and attacks upon their own character for bringing these facts to light.  To touch on the issue of Barack Obama’s Muslim childhood and intended Black agenda as president would subject his opponent, media political pundits, and the general public to shrieks of racism and worse.  Truth is on the chopping block - but so is our country’s future.

Politically correct CNN biographies of the candidates conveniently ’skipped’ Obama’s childhood and moved from his birth in Hawaii directly to college at Columbia University.  Sean Hannity’s Man on the Street poll February 13, 2008 on Fox TV demonstrated - to a person - that no one could identify a single accomplishment of Obama’s in the U.S. Senate.  Newspaper interviews reveal his shocking plans as president to abolish income tax for Black Americans as a means of reparation for slavery that happened over a century ago and to automatically allow illegal immigrants to hold duel citizenship.  Not a word is uttered as to any entitlements for Caucasians, Asians, or any other ethnicity.

Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii.  His mother grew up in Kansas and his father was from Kenya.  When Barack was two, his parents divorced and his father returned to Kenya.  His mother married another Muslim and the family moved to Jakarta, Indonesia where Barack attended a Madrassa, or Muslim seminary, which taught the Wahhabi doctrine, the most fundamental and fanatical of Islam.  His mother and stepfather divorced when Barack was ten and his mother sent him back to Hawaii to live with his maternal grandparents where he attended Punahou School, an elite private school.  Despite living an upper class lifestyle with his white grandparents, Obama acknowledged in his 1995 autobiography that he sought out and identified more with being Black.  He graduated from Columbia University … the same ultra-liberal college that traitorously hosted Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as a speaker.  After graduating from Harvard law school, he joined a small Chicago law firm.

At some point when he aspired to public office, he began attending the Church of Christ where he claims to have been married, although he was known to not be a regular parishioner.  He was elected to the Illinois State Senate in 1996.

The Chicago Sun-Times revealed Obama’s connection to Syrian-born Tony Rezko, one of Obama’s earliest political fund-raisers, who has been indicted on federal corruption charges.  Rezko even hosted a 2003 cocktail party in his mansion to benefit Obama’s U.S. senatorial race.  Obama has not been accused of any wrongdoing but Rezko has been a longtime friend and supporter, as well as part of Obama’s senatorial finance committee and Obama is the unnamed “political candidate” referred to in the indictment documents who received contributions from Rezko’s illegal schemes.  The law firm Obama was employed by did work for Rezko’s low-income housing projects and Rezko’s buildings were located within Obama’s state senatorial district. Obama has since donated Rezko connected contributions to charity but his Chicago associations have become suspect for his ability to judge character or be involved with honorable people.  Nevertheless, Obama was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004.

Further lack of good judgment was revealed with Obama’s 2005 real estate transaction with Rezko’s wife during the time Rezko was known to be under investigation.  He was criticized for purchasing a mansion for $300,000 under the asking price and later buying part of the vacant lot next door from Rezko’s wife, who bought the parcel at the same time Obama bought the mansion.

Despite the fact Obama has been deceptive about his childhood and true religious associations, Hillary was vilified for using Obama’s middle name or pursuing factual information about his life that voters should absolutely know about.  She was silenced by a tidal wave of “political correctness” regarding a subject matter that should be totally transparent in order that voters may make an informed decision that is in the best interest of the country.

Obama portrays himself as uniting American citizens but in presidential debates and newspaper interviews, a very different picture emerges.  He admitted in the debates that he favors driver’s licenses for those who are in this country illegally but it goes further than that.  Obama intends to use both Executive Orders and questionable Signing Statements to implement slavery reparation, reward illegal residents, and eliminate firearms.

He intends to issue an Executive Order to repeal income tax for African Americans as reparation for slavery that happened 150 years ago.  His public position on reparation changes depending on who is listening, watching, or asking but he has long been connected to radical Chicago City Council Alderwoman Dorothy Tillman who for years has harassed and abused anyone that wants to do business with the City of Chicago regarding her obsession for making America pay for slavery that happened long before any of us were even born.  According to the October 30, 2006 Chicago Tribune, she even ranted against Morgan Stanley, accusing them of “getting rich from investments and profits in slavery.”  Never mind that Morgan Stanley wasn’t even formed until 1935!  Regardless of her radical and irrational stand on the reparation issue, Tillman has been an outspoken supporter of her friend Barack Obama and in March 2007, Obama endorsed Tillman for reelection.  Additionally, U.S. Representative John Conyers, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, has stated he will push a reparations law through Congress if Obama is elected.  This is clearly factual information the voting public needs to know.

Another Executive Order on Obama’s intended list would allow full and immediate dual citizenship for illegal aliens AND a waiver of all income tax upon them.  He has said he will work with the radical La Raza organization to make sure Mexicans receive special entitlements.

While the First Amendment has been twisted by “politically correct” speech, Obama intends for the Second Amendment to disappear entirely.  He told the July 12, 2007 NAACP Presidential Primary Forum that he plans to change politics by issuing an Executive Order repealing gun protection on the grounds the Second Amendment is not currently what the Founders intended it to be and only the Army is a militia … not private citizens.

Obama invokes catchy phrases in the vein of Martin Luther King, Jr. but voters should not be ignorant suckers who think its cool to blindly follow a candidate who is less than honest about his life and intended accomplishments as president.  The resulting damage is something he doesn’t want you to know about … at least not until he’s safely in the Oval Office … and then, of course, it will be too late.
