President Obama urged national unity following the tragic shootings on January 8, 2011 at Tucson, Arizona. Six people were killed. Representative Gabrielle Giffords was seriously wounded in the head. Obama made an excellent speech on January 12, 2011. Here are some of his words. "Rather than pointing fingers or assigning blame, let's use this occasion to expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy, and remind ourselves of all the ways our hopes and dreams are bound together". In another part of his speech, he said, "I believe that for all our imperfections, we are full of decency and goodness, and that the forces that divide us are not as strong as those that unite us".
I would like to hope that these few words might go a long way in having a civil election year process. I'm sorry to say that this will not be the case. In my opinion, this will be the filthiest campaign ever on record. People will say and do anything to be elected and/or re-elected. I'm sure that Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals will come into play. Build me up at the expense of others, whether justifiable or not. A billion dollar war chest (Obama's hope) goes a long way to denigrate the opposition. Should I say, Chicago politics at its worst!
Since he is already known as the blameshifter-in-chief, Obama will naturally put the onus on his opposition and as much as possible on the previous administration. I believe we can take that to the bank. The liberal media (CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN and MSNBC) will back him to the hilt. Newspapers like the LA Times, Chicago Tribune, New York Times, Boston Globe, Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, etc. can't seem to see the forest from the trees because of their slobbering love affair with him. One word said about him in a derogatory manner will get the racial bias treatment from both the media and the press. Mother Teresa (if she was a US citizen) could run against him, but she would be made out to be a combination of Lucifer and Hitler. This is the sad state of the double standard in American politics.
Who represents his voting base? It isn't very hard to figure out. He has the very liberal National Education Association (NEA) which is the largest professional organization and largest labor union in the United States, representing public school teachers, and other support personnel, faculty and staffers at colleges and universities, retired educators and college students preparing to become teachers. I do not believe that the latter group (college students) is properly exposed to both political sides. Call it brainwashing if you will!
In the state of California, liberals are foisting the LGBT philosophy down our children's throats. This even includes our grammar school children. Obama selected a month for LGBT "pride". What's there to be proud about? He repealed DADT (Don't Ask, don't tell) in the military. In February 2011, he would not enforce DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act). I would have to think that he will have this 'wonderful' group voting overwhelming for him.
Most unions will cast their votes for him.
We all know how the majority of those bastions of educational prowess, Hollyweird, will vote. As a senior citizen, I would take most of yesterday's stars over most of this bunch any day. They were patriots!
Let's throw environmentalists into the equation. They just 'love' fossil fuel projects. The U.S. State Department’s decision to delay its review of TransCanada Corp.’s $7-billion Keystone XL pipeline until after next year’s presidential election may doom the project and accelerate Canada’s efforts to ship crude to Asia, Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said. The deferral on Keystone XL is a blow to the government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who called U.S. approval of the pipeline a “no brainer". Canadian officials underestimated the strength of resistance to the project by Nebraska farmers and environmentalists, political and foreign-policy experts said. Let's make sure we keep those environmentalists in our camp. The heck with the economy and more jobs!
Finally, we turn to Hispanics and Afro-Americans. Since Obama declined to protect our southern border, how do you think Hispanics will vote? I'll call it like it is! Obama did not want to lose this large base, so he did nothing. He played politics. The hell with US citizens and their safety. As for Afro-Americans, we all know he is part black. I'm hoping the sharper knives in the drawer will come to their senses and see him as he is. He could be green, purple or blue in skin color. That does not make him fit for the job! He is an extremely liberal politician with socialistic tendencies who is in over his head surrounded by morons with little to no business experience. He comes on as the nation's savior but, in reality, has probably screwed our country for many years to come.
Lest we forget, should we add Republicans are for tax cuts for the rich, are anti-Hispanic and anti-black, want to withhold social security payments to 'granny', want dirty air, are for off-shore drilling thereby polluting the oceans, etc. I suppose that Democrats walk on water.
WE CAN NOT AFFORD FOUR MORE YEARS OF THIS MAN IN CONTROL!
