Barack Obama, Slithering
Filed under: US Elections
My colleague "Incognito" (a Hollywood actress who keeps her identity secret to avoid being blacklisted as a conservative) has a devastating expose of Barack Obama's duplicity on Israel over at Instablogs. It's required reading for anyone thinking of voting in this year's general election in the United States. This man is a slithering snake and he must be stopped.
It's simply amazing to me that Democrats, consumed with righteous indignation over their allegation that George Bush "lied us into Iraq," would anoint as their candidate a man whose own dishonesty knows no bounds, who'll do and say anything, betray anyone, to gain the oval office, only then to reveal his true intentions. One is reminded of FDR and his secret socialism, of JFK and the Bay of Pigs.
Over the weekend, Obama resigned his membership in the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. Given his aura, one would have expected him to accompany this statement with a heartfelt mea culpa and condemnation of the Church, given that yet another of its religious leaders has been exposed as a strident racist.
But what Obama actually said was this: "We don't want to have to answer for everything that's stated in the church. We also don't want the church subjected to the scrutiny that a presidential campaign legitimately undergoes."
What you mean "we," Kimosabe? It's YOU, Mr. Obama, not you and a whole bunch of other people. YOU'RE the one who wants to be president of the country your church hates with blinding psychopathic passion. The sheer unmitigated gall of this man, to drag his wife into this issue while demanding nobody criticize her on other issues (or any issue) is revolting beyond words.
And get this: He's not resigning because the church is wrong, he's resigning because he's afraid its being wrong will be successfully used as a weapon against him. And he's as much concerned for the Church's wellbeing as he is his own, and ours. In other words, he's resignation is not made out of morality but out of political expediency.
