Mr. Obama Compares Himself with Martin Luther King

[baydoll]

(From Fred DeRuvo)

We knew it had to happen. I read last week on a website with a "DC Insider," that the race card was going to be played more and more over the next fifteen months as America approached the 2012 Presidential Elections. True to form, Mr. Obama did not wait long.

This past Thursday (August 11th), "At a small, exclusive New York City fundraiser Thursday night featuring the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow and movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, Obama compared himself and his agenda to that of Martin Luther King Jr.

And now that King has his own memorial on the Mall I think that we forget when he was alive there was nobody who was more vilified, nobody who was more controversial, nobody who was more despairing at times. There was a decade that followed the great successes of Birmingham and Selma in which he was just struggling, fighting the good fight, and scorned, and many folks angry. But what he understood, what kept him going, was that the arc of moral universe is long but it bends towards justice. But it doesn’t bend on its own. It bends because all of us are putting our hand on the arc and we are bending it in that direction. And it takes time. And it’s hard work. And there are frustrations." [1]

There are any numbers of thing wrong with the above statement made by our fearless leader. First of all, there is absolutely NO comparison whatsoever between Rev. King and Mr. Obama. King was a Christian. Obama is a Muslim. Second, King was fighting for equal rights between blacks and whites. Obama is fighting only for himself and his liberal agenda. Third, King was an intelligent man, willing to lay his life down if necessary for his beliefs. We are told Obama is intelligent, yet everything we see and hear belies that fact. Moreover, Obama seems more willing to take vacations than to deal with the tasks at hand with respect to this country.

The differences between King and Obama are stark and though it won't happen, I would think that people who knew Rev. King and supported him would likely be offended by Obama's brazen declaration that he is implicitly another Martin Luther King, Jr.

King was hated by racists. The implication of course from Obama is that he is hated by racists. The problem of course is that when people play the race card as continually as this particular administration has, it becomes a non-issue after a while. People do not like Obama because he is:

•inept
•self-serving
•counter-productive
•self-aggrandizing
•a liar
•acts like a dictator
•seemingly unconcerned about America's problems
•arrogant
•narcissistic
•much more
Mr. Obama is on the downside of his first term as president and his overall rating is at an all-time low of 39%. That percentage cannot simply be made up of "racists." It is made up of intelligent individuals who believe that Mr. Obama has not done what is best for this country, but instead has done what is best for himself and those who are various entitlement programs.

Mr. Obama has thrown one of our most treasured allies - Israel - under the bus because of the fact that his Muslim roots prohibit any alliance with the hated Jews. Mr. Obama has continued to spend more money than the Federal Gov't takes in and would continue to do so unchecked if it were possible.

In the end, I say go ahead, Mr. Obama. Continue to play the race card. People are wise to it and will grow extremely tired of the lies that are continually perpetrated by your administration.

Intelligent people see and understand for themselves. They see beyond the political correctness of the day, realizing that lies can only cover the truth for so long.

Mr. Obama's frustrations are of his own doing. He hates America and he hates white people. So does his good buddy Eric Holder. Together, these individuals work to bring havoc and chaos to the streets of America by literally pitting blacks against whites. They both turn the other way when blacks perpetrate hate crimes against whites. Any race/hate-crime is horrible and should not be tolerated, yet Holder picks and chooses.

Together, these individuals have pursued a course of action that ultimately wound up killing a U.S. border agent through the DOJ-inspired "Fast and Furious" gun runner program that was alleged to want to track illegally purchased guns in the United States to drug cartels in Mexico. It was a failed program from the beginning and what is the result? A dead border agent and Mr. Obama's decision to force legitimate gun dealers to report the sales of long rifles to the Federal Gov't; this in an attempt to cover their own stupidity in allowing "Fast and Furious" to occur at all.

Mr. Obama may delight in promoting himself as another Martin Luther King, Jr., but in the end all people, regardless of color, will see through it and understand that Rev. King stands heads above Mr. Obama in all respects. There is no comparison. It is but another cheap attempt by this administration to present Mr. Obama in a good light, when in point of fact, there is literally no way to honestly do that.

The liberal media wasted no time in digging up Rick Perry's college transcripts in the hopes of showing what kind of student he was when he attended college. They were disappointed. The larger question though is why have we not seen any college transcripts from Mr. Obama's days at Columbia? To this very day, we have seen nothing, yet Perry's transcripts are made public before the echo of his speech is gone announcing his candidacy for president. All the while, this same liberal media insists that they are not biased. Like Mr. Obama, they also believe that the average American is a moron, simply waiting to be spoon-fed information that they (the liberal media) believes is important for us to know.

The more Mr. Obama or his cronies (including the liberal media) play the race card, the more people will realize the truth. These are the cries of a very desperate man, who will stoop to new lows in the attempt to win a second term, so that he will be able to complete what he began with his current term: to destroy America, to bring this country to its knees. Such are the actions of a man whose passion lies in what he can do for himself. No, Mr. Obama, you and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. are nothing alike. You are polar opposites in nearly all respects.

We knew a great deal more about Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. than we know about Mr. Obama, yet true to form, Mr. Obama has the temerity to compare himself with a man who literally gave up everything in order to not only increase the awareness of the inequality between the races, but in effect, gave up his life for it. What has Mr. Obama given up? I cannot think of one thing. If you're not on some entitlement program, can you?

Idiot. MLK was a CHRISTIAN....and a REPUBLICAN.

[baydoll]

Yeah they seem to *forget* those two things quite frequently, don't they.

[shann0]

I said the same thing. He really shouldn't compare himself with people who got assassinated so much. Lincoln... Also a republican since it was the democrats who were for slavery, JFK and now MLK. Even Ronny Reagan, though they were not successful, they tried.

Surprise surprise!! After that article was posted, Mr. DeRuvo was labeled a (you guessed it) RACIST! Are these people predictable or what?



The Left Loves to Claim Racism When Anyone Criticizes Mr. Obama

Posted on August 16, 2011

The “ink” was hardly dry on my last post when someone came through with their charges of racism. It’s hilarious and one can almost set a clock by the type of caustic rejoinder found within their words.

Since the person doesn’t know the meaning of brevity, I didn’t post either of their comments, but I’ve included some of their ridiculous claims within this post. Here’s a sample:

“It’s so funny but not how misguided you all act. If I didn’t know any better I would swear you all sleep with this man and know his innermost thoughts and feelings. Who are you all to judge him? Who are you to call him names? Who are you to decide, if he was Muslim, which I thought was proven already that he wasn’t, that he is somehow unfit for presidency and wants to destroy our nation. Muslim Americans live here too. I guess he’s not looking out for even his Muslim brothers and sisters over here b/c we will be destroyed right along with everyone else. He basically has no allegiance to anyone or anything and will soon be a martyr in the name of Allah right? It’s amazing the logic or lack thereof on this post.”

Much of it makes absolutely no sense and it is clear that the individual did not really read my post for meaning, but simply read into my post.

No, I don’t know Mr. Obama that well that is part of the trouble. NO ONE knows about him at all. Though he has refused to allow college transcripts to be released, the liberal press wasted no time in getting hold of Rick Perry’s.

As I stated in a previous post, Mr. Obama is like the man with no past, because we virtually know nothing of the man, yet he was elected to the highest office in the land! This is more than frustrating. Where are his old girlfriends, or classmates? No one – not one person – has come out to talk about the friendship or relationship they had with Mr. Obama. Even George Stephanopoulos said though he was reportedly at the same college at the same time that Mr. Obama was he never came across him, never met him, and does not remember him being in any of his classes.

It has not been proven that he is not a Muslim at all. In fact, all the evidence more than suggests that he is a Muslim. I’m not sure where the writer gets his facts, but he offered no facts to back up his claim regarding the nature of Mr. Obama’s religious beliefs.

This type of person very likely believes that there is nothing to fear from Islam either, so convincing him otherwise is a waste of time. The poster obviously took my reference to the fact that I believe Mr. Obama wants to destroy this nation as a nod to physically wanting to destroy it, when in point of fact, it appears as though Mr. Obama wants to destroy not only the fundamentals upon which this country was founded, but also the infrastructure (economically, socially, etc.). This would create chaos from which a decided Socialistic framework would rise.

The same poster then references a number of alleged racist attacks and rants from right-wingers that were posted on – of all places – CNN, Huffington Post, and other leftwing rags that rarely, if ever-present something that is non-partisan.

Why aren’t these same groups looking into the LACK of history for Mr. Obama? No, they’d rather take the time to incite and make false allegations against the Tea Party. In spite of all their rhetoric and hate-filled speech to the contrary, there has never been one incidence of actual racism caught on camera or on video from actual Tea Party members.

Why doesn’t CNN, the Huffington Post, the NYT or some other lefthead rag report on the amount of left-leaning liberals who deliberately infiltrate Tea Party gatherings in order to attempt to vilify the Tea Party? These news bureaus don’t, because they don’t care about truth. They care about what sells newspapers and on-the-air advertising.

It is easy to vilify the right because, after all, we want smaller government, less spending, and less taxation. That goes against the grain of Socialists within society who want the exact opposite.

Mr. Obama is completely inept and he would still be inept if he was white (which according to the fact that his mother was white, which makes him part Caucasian, although you would never know it from him.)

I liken Mr. Obama to Jimmy Carter. In many ways, Carter had this meteoric rise to stardom and took Washington by storm; though in reality he beat Ford by very little. What happened then? Carter’s initial 66% approval rating dropped to a paltry 34% by the time he left office, a one-term president.

I can only imagine if Jimmy Carter had been black. The race card would have been played, revving up to unimagined heights prior to his re-election campaign. Much of white America would have been made to feel “guilty” about it and likely voted to re-elect him. Unfortunately for Carter, he was not able to claim racism. He was simply an inept president and it showed.

Mr. Obama is the same way. There are several growing murmurs within Congress (and specifically within Mr. Obama’s own party) that are causing them to actually look for another individual to go up against Mr. Obama in the next primary. Are they also racist because they are looking elsewhere for leadership?

The liberal left can continue playing the race card all they want, but the reality is that people are not as stupid as they believe. People are realizing that to vote someone they don’t even know into office because he is black and because he says “Change is Coming!” without providing any breakdown of what that means and how it will affect people, is the most asinine thing a person can do.

When Mr. Obama was running for office, the mantra was, “White America will never elect a black man as president!” It was a triple-dog dare ya, and much of white America fell for it. They had to prove they were not racist, so they voted in someone who has absolutely no clue and could care less. He is far more interested in vacationing than trying to run this country.

Mr. Obama’s approval rating is at an all-time low. So if we follow this poster’s line of reasoning (using the term loosely), then the sixty-something percent of those who disapprove of Mr. Obama’s job as president must be racists. This obviously has to be the case, because according to the person claiming that racism permeates the Tea Party and other conservative movements and groups, only racists disapprove of the job Mr. Obama’s doing. Again, it’s too bad that Jimmy Carter didn’t have the excuse of racism to support his re-election bid.

Here’s some interesting information for folks who think they can sum up Mr. Obama’s lack of support due to racism. This is from an interview with someone inside the goings on in Washington DC. Take it for what it’s worth, but instead of dismissing it out of hand, maybe folks should take the time to wait and see if this scenario actually happens before they toss it out. The following is merely a small part of the entire interview. To read the entire interview (of August 12th), head on over to the link at the bottom of this post.

“The president – I was told of this about a week ago, maybe two weeks ago…(pause)… the president actually considered quitting. He really did. But now he’s going on the attack. He wants to give a big F-You to White America – that’s actually one of his primary motivations. You think the race card has been played up before? Just wait. 2012 is gonna be the most brutal political cycle we have ever witnessed. Ever.” [1]

Whether anyone wants to admit it or not, Mr. Obama does not know what he’s doing. Shortly after taking the oath of office, in an interview Mr. Obama stated that if he could not turn this economy around in three and a half years, he deserved to be a one-term president. When push comes to shove, no one likes to lose though, do they?

Aside from spending an inordinate amount of money since becoming president, he has done nothing to either turn the economy around or create jobs. Beyond this, his stimulus package was a miserable failure.

He has decided to sue Arizona because they are trying to do what the Federal Gov’t is supposed to do (but won’t) with respect to our borders. Now that more states are enacting legislation to protect their “borders,” more states are being sued. Mr. Obama has also allowed foreign countries to join those lawsuits.

Is this the way Bill Clinton would have handled things? Hardly. I rarely agreed with Clinton’s politics, but he had a far better head on his shoulders than Mr. Obama does. Not only does Mr. Obama seem completely inadequate (and uninterested) with respect to trying to turn this economy around and create jobs, but his attention is elsewhere.

Yes, racism exists in America. There are some whites who hate blacks and some blacks who hate whites. There is unfortunately always going to be tension between the races and that’s not simply an American anomaly. It exists throughout the world.

Mr. Obama is as inept as Jimmy Carter was when he was president. They are two peas in a pod with their liberal, lefthead, Socialistic tendencies. At least Carter showed respect for his office and the U.S. Constitution.

We can expect the next fifteen months to heat up a great deal and much of the claims of racism will come from the Obama camp, in the hopes that those allegations will give him the necessary cover for being the worst president this country has had in modern history.

If only Allen West was in the race. Herman Cain is a great candidate, but my concern with him is that he has virtually no political experience. Crossing over from business into politics without any experience does not necessarily make a smooth transition.

Allen West refuses to run. I have personally e-mailed him on several occasions begging him to reconsider his position against running. He is more than qualified to be president of this country. I can’t blame him for not wanting to step into the mess that Mr. Obama has made though.

We’ll see what the next fifteen months bring, but of this we can be sure. Any criticism of Mr. Obama will be turned into cries of racism, as has been the norm for leftwing liberals. That much is clear from the individual who wrote twice in an attempt to shame me with his allegations of racism. This will be the norm not only until the next election, but well after the dust has settled and Mr. Obama will become the second president in modern history to be a one-term president.

Well, it's a fact that the whitehouse has hired people to troll and post propaganda and inflammatory comments throughout the internet. They also control the media and what types of stories are to be covered. It's a wonder we get any real news at all.

[baydoll]

I'm wondering how long it will be before they try and take over the internet. That's got to be bugging the you know what out of them.

If that was to happen, we can kiss any real news and information goodbye.

[shann0]

I think you're correct, they're already trying to find ways to do so.

That's why I post my email on this forum... When I got banned from Watcher forum, at first I had no way to contact anyone. I realized how isolated I was and I never want to be in that position again. If it weren't for my husband showing me how to hide my IP address, I never would have found POH again or have been able to let at least some of my Watcher friends know what had happened.

In case the internet does get clamped down, it would be useful to be able to keep in contact. I value privacy, and I'm usually a very shy and private person, but a forum like this is the only way I have fellowship with likeminded believers. In my private life, my family and friends view me as a nut for knowing the kinds of things we know.

[PrisonerOfHope]

Remember...the internet is a powerful tool that is being used to achieve God's purposes, including the salvation of many.

Nobody will take until HE says it can be taken down!

That said, I think at the time of the rapture there's going to be a world-wide blackout, with all "essential services" (electricity, internet, phones, water, etc.) being out of commission - no one will be able to ascertain who's missing, or where they went. The world will be terrified....and will play right into the hands of the AC.

[shann0]

Of course, He is in control. Nothing catches the Lord off gaurd. He's not the one saying "Boy, I didn't see that coming!"

You're right. They would love nothing more than to send this world back to the dark ages, after all it's better for the environment.
