Americans wising up to Obama

>>
>> WE'VE FIGURED HIM OUT!
>> By Ben Stein
>>
>>
>> Why was President Barack Obama in such a hurry to get his socialized
>> medicine bill passed? Because he and his cunning circle realize some
>> basic
>> truths:
>>
>> The American people in their unimaginable kindness and trust voted for a
>> pig
>> in a poke in 2008.
>> (Pig in a poke means: an offering or deal that is foolishly accepted
>> without being examined first. A poke means sack.)
>>
>> They wanted so much to believe Barack Obama was somehow better and
>> different
>> from other ultra-leftists that they simply took him on faith.
>>
>> They ignored his anti-white writings in his books.
>>
>> They ignored his quiet acceptance of hysterical anti-American diatribes
>> by
>> his minister, Jeremiah Wright.
>>
>> They ignored his refusal to explain years at a time of his life as a
>> student.
>>
>> They ignored his ultra-left record as a "community organizer," Illinois
>> state legislator, and Senator.
>>
>> The American people ignored his total zero of an academic record as a
>> student and teacher, his complete lack of scholarship when he was being
>> touted as a scholar.
>>
>> Now, the American people are starting to wake up to the truth. Barack
>> Obama
>> is a super likeable super leftist, and not a fan of this country.
>>
>> The American people have already awakened to the truth that the stimulus
>> bill -- a great idea in theory -- was really an immense bribe to Democrat
>> interest groups, and in no way helped all Americans.
>>
>> The American people already know that Mr. Obama's plan to lower health
>> costs
>> while expanding coverage and bureaucracy is a myth, a promise of
>> something
>> that never was and never can be --
>> "a bureaucracy lowering costs in a free society." Either the costs go up
>> or
>> the free society goes away... an historical truth.
>>
>> These are perilous times. Mrs. Hillary Clinton, our Secretary of State,
>> has
>> given Iran the go-ahead to have nuclear weapons, an unqualified betrayal
>> of
>> the nation. Now, we face a devastating loss of freedom at home in health
>> care.It will be joined by controls on our lives to "protect us" from
>> global
>> warming, itself largely a fraud, if believed to be caused by man.She has
>> also signed on to a Small Firearms Treaty at the U.N. This is a back door
>> gun control move. This is approved by the Senate and a 2nd Amendment
>> majority doesn't exist in the Senate now. It will supersede all U.S. Law
>> and
>> the 2nd Amendment. All citizen possession will be eliminated through
>> confiscation. Just Like Great Britain and Australia .
>>
>> Mr. Obama knows Americans are getting wise and will stop him if he delays
>> at
>> all in taking away our freedoms.There is his urgency and our opportunity.
>> Once freedom is lost, America is lost. Wake up, beloved America .
