Obama's strange politics

It's been equal-opportunity week to attack Barack Obama because of his remarks that seemed to justify a U.S. invasion of Pakistan. Democrats and Republicans alike had a field day at the expense of the poor senator.

In the midst of all this, he addressed the annual meeting of the National Council of La Raza, and talked about realities at home. But those remarks, which I found at least as provocative and troubling, got little public attention.

NCLR is sort of the Hispanic NAACP.

Speaking before an audience of about 2,000, Obama, according to The Wall Street Journal, "compared last year's massive immigration rallies led by Hispanics to the civil-rights marches of African- Americans in the 1960s ..." Regarding the population of illegals in our country today, Obama assured the crowd that "I will never walk away from the 12 million undocumented immigrants ..."

How odd for a candidate for the presidency of the United States to include looking out for the interests of illegals as a campaign promise.

He appears to have already deemed these folks immigrants. The first and central question, that they arrived and remain here illegally, seems of secondary concern to the Illinois senator, a Harvard-trained lawyer. They are just "undocumented immigrants." We just haven't had a chance to get the paperwork done.

Obama is running as a new kind of politician. And it certainly is new for someone campaigning for our nation's highest office, aspiring to assume responsibilities to provide for our defense and to secure liberty for "ourselves," to see representation of the concerns of millions who are here illegally as part of those responsibilities. Can it be that Obama thinks he is running for secretary-general of the United Nations and not president of the United States?

How about his equating immigration rallies to the civil-rights movement of the 1960s?

The analogy is, to say the least, bizarre. And it again gives a sense that the senator's left-wing vision of the world is far closer to his heart than to our own Constitution and how it relates to our citizens.

The injustices that blacks suffered had to do with lack of equal treatment and due process of law for our own citizens because of their race.

The civil rights of blacks, U.S. citizens, protected under our Constitution, that were being violated were clear. What exactly are the rights of illegals that, according to Obama, are being violated? They have violated us, not we them.

The Washington Times reported recently about a heretofore-secret 2005 report done by the Drug Enforcement Administration that discusses Islamic radicals who are "camouflaging themselves as Hispanics while conducting business with violent drug-trafficking organizations." According to the report, "multiple Middle Eastern drug-trafficking and terrorist cells in the U.S. are funding terrorism networks overseas with the aid of Mexican cartels."

Do you get the idea that Barack Obama has some kind of strange idea about what it means to protect this country?

Obama seemed quite at home with the La Raza crowd, dishing out business-as-usual ethnic politics. After conjuring up the mother of all entitlements -- that anyone who can sneak in here is entitled to become a citizen -- he then assured them that virtually every aspect of their life would be benevolently protected by a government under his leadership.

But as Obama shared his vision of America as welfare state to this audience of Hispanics, he failed to also share that, as our nation's youngest ethnic demographic, they have the most to be concerned about regarding the shaky ground on which this welfare state stands.

According to the census bureau, 34 percent of the Hispanic population is under the age of 18. This compared to 32 percent of blacks and 22 percent of non-Hispanic whites.

So Hispanics, and blacks, will disproportionately get washed into the sea of red ink of Social Security and Medicare entitlements that we have promised future generations, but do not have the money to pay.

On the other side of the coin, Hispanics, and blacks, would disproportionately benefit today by being allowed to fund their own private retirement accounts in lieu of paying payroll taxes.

But they'll never hear this from Obama.

That's what it looks like. I doubt he'll be the nominee, but if that is the case, and Hillary takes him now, it's hard to see it play well. Though I know there is the contention that Clinton/Obama wins in a landslide. Don't know about that. Edwards is waiting in the wings.

You actually like playing the Establishment's game and pretending you have a voice in their selections.

Boy, Robin could whip your ass in a battle of wits so fast you'd wish you were back in your momma's womb sucking someone else's thumb.

"That's just how white folks will do you. It wasn't merely the cruelty involved. It was a particular brand of arrogance, an obtuseness in otherwise sane people that brought forth our bitter laughter. It was as if whites didn't know they were being cruel in the first place. Or at least thought you deserving of their scorn. White folks."

"Only Malcolm X's autobiography seemed to offer something different. His repeated acts of self-creation spoke to me; the blunt poetry of his words, his unadorned insistence on respect, promised a new and uncompromising order, martial in its discipline, forged through sheer force of will. All the other stuff, the talk of blue-eyed devils and apocalypse, was incidental to that program, I decided, religious baggage that Malcolm himself seemed to have safely abandoned toward the end of his life. And yet, even as I imagined myself following Malcolm's call, one line in the book stayed me. He spoke of a wish he'd once had, the wish that the white blood that tan through him, there by an act of violence, might somehow be expunged. I knew that, for Malcolm, that wish would never be incidental. I knew as well that traveling down the road to self- respect my own white blood would never recede into mere abstraction. I was left to wonder what else I would be severing if and when I left my mother and my grandparents at some uncharted border." [p.86, Dreams of my father]

It's actually comical the list of 4umers that have fallen for the Establishment's game (did they really have to fall?) and most particularly this racist Marxist stain of a man...BHO.

I had not seen this. Excellent tube, excellent points. For Obama, his campaign is totally about race.

It's it odd that he dedicates a book to his father who abandoned him as a 2 year old? Yet he has no problem tossing his white grandmother under the racial bus, dismissing her as a typical white person.

He's horrible. His supporters, informed ones such as the resident 4umOphiles, have no excuses other than they're as bad or worse.

This is really something. I watched a few Farrakan (sp) speeches after I learned he had received an award from the Trinity church. This kid in your vid really nails a specific point that Calypso Louis loves to hammer.

I'm ready to take Calypso Louis up on his vision of separate but equal. Let's do it for real this this time, see who comes out on top.

The Establishment plays the sheeple down the NeoCommie/NeoCon funnel. Look who takes the bait (and puts it out).

What amazes me is that in4umed people are actually Communist pigeons choosing to come out feeling that with BHO it is safe.

Other in4umed people it turns out are just more idiot sheeple...without NeoCommies, NeoCons would not be an alternative for the sheeple.

I'm with you on this. Forcible state integration is a disaster, and when people are offered a choice, most will naturally gravitate to their own race. I don't see this as a good thing or a bad thing, it is what it is, human nature. I've read countless studies that support that statement, but I don't feel like digging up the links at this time.

Not voting won't change that. Neither will voting. Do you know how to do a Rockford style J-Turn in a 15 passenger van?

Seems their whole argument is, he's not McCain or Hillary. That's not much incentive, when you know the guy wants to tax you more, can't stop the war, supports alien parasites, supports gun control, supports partial birth abortion, considers hate speech acceptable in his 'church', but outrageous when Imus stumbled -- so he's a flaming hipocrit, and sort of regrets choosing the wrong words calling people bitter for clinging to old time tom foolery such as religion and guns. see we are just too stupid to understand the transition from the Old America to the New Global Plantation.

But -- so the questions you're most likely to get about me, 'Well, what is this guy going to do for me? What's the concrete thing?'...So we'll go down a series of talking points.

But the truth is, is that, our challenge is to get people persuaded that we can make progress when there's not evidence of that in their daily lives. [snip] -- Obama - audio from the April 6, 08 Obama fundraiser in S.F. www.huffingtonpost.com/ma...r/obama-no-surprise-that- ha_b_96188.html

And yet, amazingly, 4umers have globbed onto a racist Marxist North American Union-loving Establishment tool to market.

As was forced segregation. Social engineering is the problem, it uses force to negate human nature - a losing proposition from the get-go. And why would anyone want to? Oh yeah...phase three: profit!

Peppa, the Ophiles are "Exhibit A" in a study of how Liberal Progressive Communists roped the sheeple into the Establishment's ever leftward movement proffering the "Lesser of 2 Evils"...I blame these in4umed folks that knowingly continue to market for the Establishment.

Useful idiots or master manipulators from the way back RAT-Commie School of long term change?

I agree totally. It goes against every tenant of freedom. Ironically, had wicked America not tossed Jim Crow into the barn fire, Obama wouldn't be here, as he is the product of both races.

Like I've said 100 times already, it's always open season on candidates, but attacks on their supporters just drives the wedge deeper. Misguided as they may be, I think most Obama supporters honestly believe him to be less likely to start new wars than the other two morons being hailed by the establishment.
