Obama's Politics

[peterhook]

Hi Friends,
Barack Obama stepped onto the national political stage when the then-Illinois State senator addressed the 2004 Democratic National Convention. Soon after Obama was elected to the U.S. Senate, author Jerome Corsi began researching Obama's personal and political background. Scrupulously sourced with more than 600 footnotes, THE OBAMA NATION is the result of that research. By tracing Obama's career and influences from his early years in Hawaii and Indonesia, the beginnings of his political career in Chicago, his voting record in the Illinois legislature, his religious training and his adoption of Christianity through to his recent involvement in Kenyan politics, his political advisors and fundraising associates and his meteoric campaign for president, Jerome Corsi shows that an Obama presidency would, in his words, be “a repeat of the failed extremist politics that have characterized and plagued Democratic Party politics since the late 1960s.”In this stunning and comprehensive new book, the reader will learn about: -Obama's extensive connections with Islam and radical politics, from his father and step-father's Islamic backgrounds, to his Communist and socialist mentors in Hawaii and Chicago, to his long-term and close associations with former Weather Underground heroes William Ayers and Bernadette Dohrn—associations much closer than heretofore revealed by the press
-Barack and Michelle's 20-year-long religious affiliation with the black-liberation theology of former Trinity United Church of Christ Reverend Jeremiah Wright, whose sermons have always been steeped in a rage first expressed by Franz Fanon , Stokely Carmichael and Malcolm X, a rage that Corsi shows has deep meaning for Obama
-Obama's involvement in the slum-landlord empire of the Chicago political fixer Tony Rezko, who helped to bankroll Obama's initial campaigns and to purchase of Barack and Michelle's dream-home property.
-Obama's far-left domestic policy, his controversial votes on abortion, his history of opposition to the Second Amendment, his determination to raise capital-gains taxes, his impractical plan to achieve universal health care, and his radical plan to tax Americans to fund a global-poverty-reduction program.

Hi Peter .. !!

Barack Obama is certainly raising some eyebrows. His latest idea to break up the large U.S. banks is having quite an effect on the stock market.

US stocks plunge for second day
US stock markets have tumbled for a second consecutive day, on concern over President Obama's plan to revamp the US banking industry.
The Dow Jones plunged by 216 points, or 2%, to close at 10172.98, while the technology heavy Nasdaq fell by 2.6%, or 60 points, to finish at 2205.29.
The broader S&P 500 Index also sank by more than 2% to end at 1091.76.

He is certainly charismatic. He wants health-care reform. A good thing if it doesn't further bankrupt his country, and he is dealing with bankers that probably should be covered by your magazine for the way they invest clients money. Pretty scary for anybody to find the balance.

What's your take on the man? :tiphat:

[IGoSlo]

:tiphat: Morning Peter, The first year of his Term is over. NOW, we as a people (Nation)can "Objectively" Score this man. He has FAILED on many of his "Campaign Promises"... I.E. "Closing of Gitmo"... (Good Thing STILL OPEN)... Although His Administraion HAS Released some of the "Terrorist", it is still OPEN and helping to secure the world.
Health care reform. (Usher in Socialism). Thank God for the Tea Party movement and the Fortitude of the American People. BLOCKED. The Health Care Reform we need is Tort Reform, Pharmaceutical and Government "Back Room" payoffs, Less Government Regulation and Controls on Physicians and Hospitals, LESS "FREE" care to the chosen (Illegals, Politicians). His Presidential Pardon to the Terrorist that Attacked "USS COLE". His continued Association with "KNOWN (Authenticated) Communists and outreach to such around the world. (Chavez, Iran, N.Korea, Putin, Kadaffi) just to mention a few. His Refusal to accept Radical Islam for what it is "Terrorism) and Treat it as such. His Administration's FAILURE to uphold the Constitution of the United States and His FIRST Priority under the Constitutuion. "PROTECT and DEFEND the United States and her Citizens. The Government (SOCIALISM) takeover of better than 1/3 rd of our Economy. (Detroit, Banking Institutions, Health Care Related Industries). Better than a 17, that's right 17 TRILLION DOLLAR NATIONAL DEBT. Chicago Style Politics of Corruption and Payoff.
Yes, I believe one could say that the predictions of His Failure are coming to fruition. Actually, This man is no more than a "Pawn", He is a "Lawn Ornament" for the "Progressive Party". It's the Harry Read's, the Nancy Palocy's (HARD LEFT WINGERS) tha are pulling the strings. He is their Bred water boy for this time and age. They Could NOT have GOTTEN this far with a White Man... Their PC'ness just would NOT have worked. :pray: One thing is for certain though. We as believers Know the Final outcome... We have the "Final Chapter" of the Book available to us for Guidence. :pray:

[IGoSlo]

:nod: I think I better "Clarify" I Don't want to be "Misquoted". When talking about a White Man not being the right choice for the "Left Wingers" to get this far with their agenda and Obama being the Bred Water boy and Lawn Ornament for that Movement, there is NO way a White man could hide behind the VALE of "RACISM" they have used to protect Obama. "If you don't agree with their policies and politics put forth by his mouth, one's called a "Racist". If you "Question", your a "Racist". That could never have been used if he were white.;)

[IGoSlo]

Willy, The US is "Already" bankrupt. We as a Nation will NEVER be able to pay of a 17 Trillion Dollar Debt. Since His swearing in our Government printing office has NON Stop been printing "GREEN BACKS". How long do you think that can go on? Talk about double digit inflation during the Carter Years. Wait till this Catches up to us. One can only put Band aids on a wound so long befroe it festers.

[IGoSlo]

Obama has stated. "My Goal is to REBUILD America". To me that means America "MUST" be Destroyed. Out of her ashes, They can Rebuild it as They (Socialists) see fit. I predict if the elections of 2010 do NOT change the Balance of Power (and I'm not talking Dem's V Repub's) there are "SOCIALIST" in BOTH PARTIES. There is CORRUPTION in BOTH PARTIES. I'm talking about Electing people who will PUT the NATION and Her CITIZENS FIRST, NOT thier Personal or Group Desires oand GOALS, in 18 months the United States as we know it today will no longer be Recognisable. We WILL be a BROKEN Nation and in Turmoil. RIPE for the Pickin'

[a.baker]

How can someone fail so quickly when they walked into the huge mess he did?! I don't think he's had enough time to really fix anything yet and I think people need patience because this will take years past his (4 yr.) term. I DO NOT see him as a horrible president. Since when did raggin' on the president all the time become patriotic. I don't listen to news as opinion but as fact. Many news sources do act as a political party and their full of deceiving opinion. Hey lets look at what Obama has walked into and at least give him credit for that. I'm not for or against, never was. I'll tell you what though, the way those Republicans act remind me of high school bullies. I DO NOT ever want Sarah Palin to run our country.

[IGoSlo]

:catfight: WOW:catfight: You know what, George Bush has been out of Office now for better than a year. STOP BLAMING HIM. When Mr. Obama was Sworn in the Un-Enployment Rate was LESS than 10 %. NOW it's ABOVE that and RISING. You being from Michigan should be aware of that figure alone. What's the Un-Employment Rate in Mi. Today vs GB's tenure? You Don't think it's "FAIR" to Judge the "Messiah". That's what He was "Portrayed" as by the "Left Wingers". What does Sarah Palin have to do with the Judgement of Obama's first year in Office? He is the President NOT Sarah Palin. Besides, She has a better "Re'sume' than He will ever have. He was a "Social Worker/Community Activist card Carring Comunists vs Mayor/Governor Believer in Christ.:scratch::tiphat:

Sarah has nothing to do with Obama I didn't say she did. I never said I blamed Bush. Un-employment in MI. is the highest at 14.7%. Yes I'm aware. Why do you put so much into what was not said?

[IGoSlo]

:scratch: Who's "Raggin" on the Man... Just STATING FACT. :scratch: Or is THAT something your "news/Opinion SOURCE" knows NOTHING about? A news source should be "just that" A NEWS SOURCE... NOT an OP ED Platform... :swoon:There are enough of those out there.... Oh, did I forget? Sarah Palin CHOSE LIFE... Barak Obama VOTED FOR AND SUPPORTS LIFE ENDING ABORTION...

:swoon: yOU need TO GO BACK AND READ YOUR POST. You stated the "raggin", YOU mentioned George Bush, You mentioned Sarah Palin. :swoon:NOT I... I stated fact. YOU voice "OPINION". Where are YOUR FACTS? :scratch:

[IGoSlo]

:tiphat: As far as "giving" Mr. Obama "Credit". I did. :swoon:

:sob: 17 TRILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF NATIONAL DEBT. THAT NOOSE WILL BE

AROUND OUR NECKS FOR GENERATIONS TO COME.

:sob: THE TAKE OVER OF ALMOST 1/3 RD OF OUR ECOMONY. (DETROIT, BANK

INSTITUTIONS, AREAS OF HEALTH CARE BUSINESS') "PRIVATE INDUSTRY"

:sob: NATIONAL UN-EMPLOYEMENT RATE OVER 10 %

:sob:A NATION MORE VULNERABLE TO ATTACK TODAY THAN A YEAR AGO. (THREE

KNOWN ATTACKS IN THE LAST YEAR).

:scratch: IS THAT ENOUGH FACT OR SHALL I PROCEED?

[IGoSlo]

:D Here's another small Factoid you may have missed on CNN, Since his Election, there have been 3 MAJOR STATE elections. He HAS POLITICED in ALL 3 and the Dem's have LOST ALL 3. That Resounds... :swoon:

[IGoSlo]

:yowza: HELLO,,, :yowza: it's been a while. Where'd you Go a.b.?

[CoreIssue]

For me the last decent President was Reagan.

Clinton, Bush and Obama are One World supporters, among other things.

Honestly, I believe Obama is the worst President this country has ever had, which is saying a lot after Carter.

[IGoSlo]

Actually they are quite similuar. BOTH were pawns of the "Far Left". Only difference is their skin color. Obama will get farther though because of being "Black". As I stated in another Post, This time round they can use the Race card.

[a.baker]

Igoslo I saw all your posts earlier but didn't have time to respond, I am a pretty busy person.

You know I can show you all the facts I want and you won't hear you'll just tare it, twist it ect.

I don't think CNN or Fox news for example are very trusty factual news sources. I listen to MPR radio station which is a nation wide news radio station that talks about world news, not only what everyone else is talking about, good, reliable and factual, give it a shot. Week days are better for news source, the weekends they tend to have more shows.

Sometimes its good to just sit back and listen to whats going on, you'll learn a lot that way.

Well you can nit pick and tare down Obama all you want but do you have a better plan to offer? If you were a president who walked into this mess how would you fix it? Instead of wasting your time complaining do you have any better serious, not opinion, but actual suggestions for the problems we are facing as a country?
What ya got?

[IGoSlo]

a.baker, First I must ask, How can you be serious? You say you went back and read each of my posts. Earlier you insisted on fact. well I listed fact. I must say girl, your LOST. How can you a "Bible believing BORN AGAIN BELIEVER continue to Defent a BABY KILLER? Yes, I said BABY KILLER, HE wrote a law in Illinois that He Got passed giving women the right to ABORT A CHILD UP BIRTH. And your a believer. I'll pary for you.

now your telling her shes lost? when in another thread you jumped her and willy for judging? you do the things you say not to do...

something for you to consider....

[Willy]

I had a cartoon on the wall beside where I used to work. It was the head and shoulders of George Washington, Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton. Under Washington were the words; "I cannot tell a lie." Under Nixon were the words; I am not a crook." and under Clinton the words; "I'm not wearing any pants."

What we forget sometimes is that these guys are only human. Sure we vote for them and then pray for them to have wisdom and the praying is just as important as voting. The world is changing and the blessing is leaving North America as the liberal godless society takes over, but really these men are operating in a sphere that is bigger than they are. Providence is a mighty force and I think when the day is over the blame is much much bigger than any one man. imho

There you go again avoiding the question I asked you and serving yet again your personal attacks. Of course I don't agree with abortion but I have nothing to prove to you. As you stated before who knows who's heart, well the answer is God does.

Lets stick to politics instead of getting all side tracked on who YOU think is saved or not.

So.... what would you do if you were the president that walked into the mess Obama did? Not an easy answer is it? :tiphat:

[IGoSlo]

a.baker, NO one NOT ONE said anything about being or NOt being saved. I did ask the question "how can you a christian defend a baby killer. I asked you to STATE fact's as of YET you have failed on that too. REMEMBER the ALAMO?

Obama’s policies demonstrate that his regime is totally committed to saving the capitalist class and the US empire. To do so, he is willing to sacrifice the most basic immediate needs and future interests, as well as the living standards, of the vast majority of working and home-owning Americans who are most directly affected by the domestic economic depression. Obama has increased the scope of military-driven empire building and enhanced the power position of the pro-Israeli warmongers in his administration. Obama’s ‘economic recovery’ and military escalation strategies are financially and fiscally incompatible; the cost of one undermines the impact of the other and leaves a tremendous hole in any efforts to counteract the collapse of social services, rising

There is nothing capitalist about Obama. He is a socialist.

Sounds like Hitler, Lenin, Stalin and Mussolini to me.

Nothing wrong with being pro-Israel.

What group are you a part of?

[sinnerredeemed]

You all need to focus on JESUS. These things are going to happen no matter how much you debate it. For the last year we have been hearing about Rep, Dems, Left, Right, far left winggers. Frankly, our Government that WE (well, not me) elect are mostly ungodly and have taken Christ out of everything from school, to public prayer, to sermens.....Yes, sermans!!!!! If you speak out against homosexuality you are classified a Christian Extremeist and can go to jail. It is now considered a "Hate Crime" It has happened...look it up. Put your trust not in man, but Jesus Christ. There is no politician worthy of worry and anxiety. Just love God because He first loved you.
Listen Brothers and Sisters, there is no doubt that God knows where this Country stands and there is no way He will let this continue any longer than He wishes. This should be good news to all Christians. "BEHOLD, I COME QUICKLY".......PRAISE JESUS!!!!!!!

Won't be long now imho ... :raptured:
We do tend to dwell on evil things that are going on all around us but I think most do focus on Jesus.

Maybe it is still good to talk and debate just to keep the issues up front. :eek:

So many people especially the younger ones think everything is just fine and I think we owe it to them to say ... Hey!! ... This is not right..!!

But you are right ... we do need to keep our focus ... it keeps us strong ..!! :yowza:

[sinnerredeemed]

Amen Willy..!!:yowza:

I just get carried away when it comes to the Lord.:nod:

These are just worldly problems and we are not from this world but the Kindom to

come. I look for the Lord to come everyday......that's what keeps me going from day

to day. I can't understand the evil that is going on in this world. Everyday is gets

worse. I personally know it's hard to go to work everyday knowing that I have to

encounter so many mockers and scoffers. I just have to take it to the Lord.......He's

ultimately in charge.:):

We do look for the Lord's return daily ... moment to moment. :):

Remember that Paul ... Saul of Tarsus ... was once much worse than a mocker, scoffer ... we all were to some degree before we were saved.
You don't have to like them ... but love them ... "they know not what they do." :aah: :cross:

You are the one in a position of strength ... you work for the King and are His property. He purchased you by the shedding of His Blood.
