While I might say, "I can't believe it," I completely do. It is not surprising to me that President Obama's White House is asking for Americans to inform on Americans. It is not surprising that his administration is interested in shutting down democratic dissent over his power grab policies. It is nothing new for the Democratic party to resort to name-calling and ad homonym attacks. Unfounded or simplistic slogans and demagoguery have been staples of the Democratic party since it sponsored slavery and segregation.
What really leaves me incredulous, however, is the appearance that many are so slow to realize the dangerous shift that happened when Barack Obama gained the White House. It baffled me that so many were so willingly blind to the fact that this man had nothing to recommend him outside of absurd boasts and a radical, government-funded, well organized grass-roots network. I don't doubt for a minute that the election would have been far closer if not for voter fraud that undoubtedly occurred and always favors the Democratic candidate. We in Minnesota know first hand how corrupt election officials and counties can skew results in favor of their candidate without batting an eye.
The playbook for the Democrats this time is no different than when President Clinton took office. Most may remember HillaryCare which went down in flames for the same reasons I hope ObamaCare will go down. These respective plans have nothing to do with the poor, downtrodden folks without healthcare. Rather, they are an effort to align power in a National Government steeped in Socialist principles.
In light of that fact, it does and it doesn't surprise me that Nancy Pelosi tried to say that opponents to the Healthcare take-over were carrying swastikas. It is absurd that one would compare free citizenry protesting a National Government power-grab with Nazis, but yet it makes sense, too. Psychologists call this projection. When someone is guilty of something, like say, having neighbors inform on other neighbors to create an enemy list or turning government's power against political opponents in ads that single out Conservatives by naming them as threats to the Homeland, he or she must project that obvious behavior on others.
The American people should take special notice of Obama and his cronies. The American people should remember the plans brought forward and the party that has tried to advance them. No one should think that they will benefit from these absurd government promises. The promises are nothing more than candy offered by a child molester: there is no real treat waiting for those who choose to accept it.
