Just seven
years after the 9/11 attacks, half the nation’s voters and myriads of
registrants who do not exist will vote in the presidential election for a
Marxist whose political career was created by domestic terrorists and financed
by Islam.
Days before
the election, the stealth candidate boasts that his campaign is on the verge of
“fundamentally transforming the United
States of America.” In defiance of the US Constitution,
the change he seeks to impose would forever change America from being the nation of
liberty the Founders intended it to be.
Many will
vote for Barack Hussein Obama because they identify with him racially or feel a
need to assuage their white guilt.
Many will
vote for him because they feel financially insecure or want other Americans to
pay their way through life.
Many will
vote for him because their empty souls are mesmerized by his messianic charade,
projecting that he is a spiritually enlightened savior bringing hope and
change.
His chief financiers
and inner circle will vote for him because they are committed enemies of the United States
and oppose the individual liberty that Americans are guaranteed under the
Constitution.
As Obama admitted
in a 2001 radio interview, he regards the Constitution as deeply flawed because
it does not allow redistribution of
wealth — the centerpiece of his Marxist agenda for America.[1]
That won’t stop him; he also refuses to prove that he is a natural-born citizen
of the United States,
and government officials have shown no inclination to enforce that
constitutional requirement.
This summer
he declared that “America’s
greatest moral failure in my lifetime has been that we still don’t abide by
that basic precept in Matthew that ‘whatever you do for the least of my
brothers, you do for me,’” citing our nation’s sins of “poverty,” “racism and
sexism.”[2]
According
to Obama and his mentors Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright, the root cause of America’s
evil is economic inequality. “Social justice” requires the remedy of
redistribution of wealth, the transfer of taxpayers’ earnings to whomever their
regime will determine has need.
As Karl
Marx said, “From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.”
Or as the Marxist messiah told Joe the Plumber: “It’s good to spread the wealth
around.”
After
inadvertently tipping his hand, Obama denies he is a socialist but affirms
redistribution of others’ assets is a virtue. Meanwhile his minions on
government computers have scrutinized Joe’s records for the purpose of
discrediting him.
Joe the
Plumber is every American citizen who dares to challenge the Leader. In Obama’s
Marxist utopia, hard questions are disallowed.
To conceal
his Muslim background and cloak his Marxist agenda, Obama fabricated the ruse that
he is a Christian. In this ruse, one of Obama’s favorite biblical allusions is
that “I am my brother’s keeper.”[3]
Meanwhile, the millionaire messiah’s own half-brother George has been living in
a shantytown hut in Kenya,
subsisting on a dollar a month.[4]
To his brother in need Obama has given nothing,
but in recent years he donated over $20,000 to Wright’s hate-inciting Black
Power cult.
Dreams From My Father is the 1995 memoir that the communist
terrorist Ayers wrote for Obama to launch his protégé’s political career.[5]
In that memoir, Obama’s Kenyan aunt Zeituni was prominently featured as a
beloved family member. This week, The
Times of London — not the domestic
Obama-worshipping propaganda media — broke the news that for five years this
aunt has been living in a slum in Boston, just
miles where he gained prestige at HarvardLawSchool
for his charm and racial identity. Like many of his supporters, she hopes that
Obama’s presidency will change her life for the better.[6]
Obama’s heartless
disregard for his own family members proves that he is an authoritarian Marxist,
whose real concern is not others’ well-being but his pathological quest for power
to control the lives of us all.
Under the
guise of concern for the poor, Marxists invoke the name of Jesus as a champion
of their cause. But Jesus never
condemned economic inequality as a moral failure; both Jesus and the Jewish
Bible, the Old Testament, recognized this disparity as a fact of life in the
world that God created.
From a
biblical perspective poverty can be
caused by evil — from theft, swindling and the financial schemes of the ACORN
crime organization in collusion with a corrupt Congress, or from government
tyranny and seizure of assets, which are standard policies of Marxism. Poverty
can also result from illness or be due to personal negligence. But there are
valid and blameless reasons that some people have more than others, due to the reality
of the world as God created it.
People are
born into different circumstances, with different innate abilities and talents.
Individuals apply themselves to their learning and their work with differing
levels of personal initiative and responsibility. So in this world there will
always be a spectrum between rich and poor. Jesus said “the poor you will
always have with you,”[7]
and he never proposed the Marxist remedy — involuntary redistribution, known as
theft when committed by anyone but the state. The Tenth Commandment also constrains
a sinful human impulse that Marxism exploits — coveting another person’s
property.
The
religion of Barack Hussein Obama is inherently alien to the Bible and the
teaching of Jesus.
For Jesus,
the problem of being rich is not that others have less but that it is easy to
mistake wealth for life’s ultimate purpose, as an end in itself; that is why it is difficult for the rich
to enter God’s kingdom.[8]
Jesus taught that the greater one’s wealth, the greater one’s obligation to voluntarily use it for the good of
others, remembering those in need.[9]
Jesus never advocated compulsory
redistribution to offset economic disparity. When Christians voluntarily give
from their personal assets to those in need, their generosity is service to the
risen Christ. To the Messiah whom Christians
serve, “America’s
greatest moral failure” is not economic inequality.
Rather,
Jesus reserved his strongest
condemnation for those who harm innocent children, and he warned of punishment
more horrific than drowning, for “it is not the will of your Father who is in
heaven that one of these little ones perish.”[10]
Most
vulnerable and dependent of all humans, the unborn and the newborn are easily
regarded by many as of lesser value and a disposable inconvenience. Abortion
and infanticide were acceptable and widespread in Roman society, and with
Jewish precedent early Christians took Jesus’ judgment to heart in opposing
those two practices.
The
first-century Jewish historian Flavius Josephus extolled the respect of Judaism’s
scriptures for innocent human life: “The Torah, moreover, enjoins us to bring
up all our offspring, and forbids women to cause abortion of what is conceived,
or to destroy it afterward; and if any woman appears to have so done, she will
be a murderer of her child, by destroying a living creature, and diminishing
humankind.”[11]
In Psalm 139, the psalmist marvels that God knew him as a person even as he was
developing in his mother’s womb.
The
Didache, a first-century catechism of Christian morality, is explicit in its
application of Jesus’ regard for children: “you shall not murder a child by
abortion nor kill the infant already born.”[12]
From the same period the Epistle of Barnabas adjoins this to the commandment to
love: “You shall love your neighbor more than your own soul. You shall not
murder a child by abortion, nor again shall you kill it when it is born.”[13]
But in
homage to the narcissism of this age Obamessiah hallows as “reproductive justice”[14]
an unfettered right to kill the unborn and the partially-born for personal
convenience. Invoking his family values, this champion for abortion declares
that he would not want his own daughters to be “punished with a baby”[15]
— the birth of an unwanted child, for whom thousands of adoptive parents yearn
for years.
Obama
surpasses even Planned Parenthood and NARAL in trivializing the value of innocent
human life. In a shocking justification of infanticide, Ayers’ and Wright’s state
legislator insisted that babies who survive abortion and are born alive must
not receive medical care lest they be acknowledged as persons, undermining the
decision to abort.
Three times
he voted against Illinois’
Born-Alive Infants Protection Act — the third time, against virtually the same
legislation approved 98-0 by the US Senate in 2001. He is fully committed to
sign as president the Freedom of Choice Act, to rescind all federal and state
restrictions on abortion. He pretends to regard this with all moral gravity,
but when asked at the SaddlebackChurch forum to identify
at what point a baby’s human rights begin, he replied flippantly that to answer
this specifically is “above my pay grade.”[16]
He claims
to follow the Golden Rule, but his own words condemn him: “America’s
greatest moral failure … has been that we still don’t abide by that basic
precept in Matthew that ‘whatever you do for the least of my brothers, you do
for me.’” In the cult of the Marxist messiah, infants in and out of the womb
are slain with Jesus on the altar of expediency.
The harm
Obama’s “reproductive justice” will inflict on children extends beyond their
survival of infancy. In accord with Planned Parenthood’s agenda he claims “it’s
the right thing to do to provide age-appropriate sex education” to kindergartners.[17]
The purpose of sex education, its proponents initially alleged, is to prevent
teen pregnancy and transmission of STDs. How then is sex education
“age-appropriate” for kindergartners? Don’t parents already teach their kids no
one may touch their privates? Do kindergartners need knowledge of the
reproductive process? No, this “age-appropriate sex education” includes STD prevention, and under that guise its
purpose is to awaken the sexual curiosity of children prematurely and to
exploit their innocent minds for early affirmation of the Left’s lifestyle
choices. It’s really the advocacy of “gender” justice.
Likewise, Obama’s
opposition to parents’ choosing of their children’s school is because he, like
the terrorist Ayers who created his political career, regards education as an
instrument of Marxist revolution. To that end Ayers first made him chair of the
Chicago Annenberg Challenge, and in turn Obama dispensed millions to their communist
comrades under the guise of “education reform” — to indoctrinate with the
“social justice” of Marxism the fertile minds of Chicago’s children.
Before his
campaign restricted her opportunities to expose their agenda, Michelle Obama
revealed that despite his denials he really supports gay marriage but the issue
is too controversial to openly endorse before the election. “It’s like you
gotta do the baby steps,” she told TheNew Yorker, explaining the community
organizer’s ploy. “You don’t start with the hardest, toughest issues when
you’re trying to unite a group.”[18]
She told the DNC’s Gay and Lesbian Leadership Council that he will repeal the
Defense of Marriage Act,[19]
and she regards opposition to the gay agenda as morally equivalent to racial
discrimination in Selma.[20]Hand
in hand with gay marriage is the recruitive adoption of children into such a
home.
What may account
for his allegiance to this agenda? In his adolescence and teens Barry Obama was
mentored by Frank Marshall Davis, a Stalinist agent of the Communist Party USA with
an FBI dossier of 600 pages.[21]
In his personal life a bisexual, a pedophile, and a lecher who roamed parks seeking
sex with strangers, Davis
later wrote that he “specialized in sex” during that time frame and previously boasted
that his deviance acted out his communist rebellion.[22]
Davis was the mysterious “Frank” whose actual
identity and importance was largely concealed in Obama’s memoir. Analysis of
the Dreams memoir indicates the
principal author was Ayers, the communist terrorist who created Obama’s
political career. The memoir is secretive about key aspects of Obama’s life, concealing
his activities and his communist and Islamic allies at Columbia,
at Harvard and in Chicago.
Nonetheless
the memoir does disclose that “Frank” initiated young Barry’s racial obsession
and his resentment of whites, and manifests his retributive hatred of America. Despite
living in the post-racial paradise of Hawaii
and attending a prestigious prep school there, “I ceased to advertise my
mother’s race at the age of twelve or thirteen, when I began to suspect that I
was ingratiating myself to whites.”[23]
The memoir discloses that Frank and Barry’s grandfather had the lad write
sexual limericks, that Frank warned him against women and that Frank gave the
minor whiskey. Also disclosed is Barry’s discomfort in sensing a transactional
arrangement between the two men — the same discomfort he felt at the age of 11
or 12 when Gramps routinely took him to a sleazy bar in the red-light district,
adorned with pornographic images on the walls, where the grandfather sought others’
acceptance for being different.[24]
These deviant
men had the opportunities to influence Obama’s formative years because his
Marxist Kenyan father abandoned him in his infancy, and because for her career
his Marxist white mother abandoned both his stepfather and Barry in his youth.
Obama is
not responsible for the corrupting influences and damaging experiences to which
he was subjected as a child. It is a tragedy, for which he as a private citizen
would warrant our compassion. But he is responsible as an adult for seeking to
impose those influences and experiences on America, for his determination to
act out his narcissistic personality disorder against our nation.
In a 2007
speech reviewing the history and future of Communism in America, Gerald
Horne, a contributing editor of the Communist Party journal Political Affairs, identified Frank
Marshall Davis as the “Frank” hidden in Obama’s memoir. The speech’s occasion
was a university’s reception of the Community Party USA’s archives for its
library. Horne hailed Davis
as “a decisive influence in helping
[Obama] to find his present identity as an African-American, a people who have
been the least anti-communist and the most left-leaning of any
constituency in this nation.” With optimism Horne envisioned a future day when
Obama’s memoir will be assigned reading for students of Communism alongside Davis’ autobiography.[25]
Young
Barry’s Stalinist mentor trained him well — politically, psychologically and
culturally.
While Obama
opposes applying Jesus’ ethics to the unborn and newborn, he claims the Sermon
on the Mount is more definitive on gay marriage than the apostle Paul’s judgment
of homosexual behavior in the Romans letter, alleging the latter is only “an
obscure line.”[26]
In reality the Sermon on the Mount upholds and raises the heterosexual bar of
Judaism’s ethics,[27]
and Paul likewise affirms without ambiguity the standard Jewish teaching
against homosexual conduct.[28]
Paul’s argument is that Roman society’s engagement in such practices manifests a
rebellion against the world as God created it, against the Creator who designed
male and female to be heterosexual as is evident from the procreative function
of our bodies.
Just as
Obama supports abortion and infanticide, so too he opposes legislative efforts
by Christians and non-Christians to prevent the Left’s re-definition of
marriage. His assault on the family seeks to impose a social novelty never
adopted even by Greco-Roman paganism. Thus the lord Obama sanctifies in
matrimony males sodomizing males and sanctions the killing of unwanted infants
as non-personal tissue masses.
In their
rebellion against reality as God made it, Marxists are seeking to impose their political,
psychological and cultural pathology on America, with Barack Hussein Obama
as the anointed Leader. While posturing as morally enlightened, Obamessiah is
antichristian and a malignant narcissist to the core. Big Media’s elite are his
adoring disciples, the god whom he worships is himself, and this false
messiah’s kingdom is America
re-made an oppressive Marxist state.
The United States faces
a far greater risk on November 4, 2008 than it did on September 11, 2001. On this
election day, all Americans who value life and liberty have a moral duty to
themselves and future generations to vote for
John McCain and Sarah Palin, and against
the Marxist messiah.
