Below is part of a column by Thomas Sowell I received re BO's dismantling of America piece by piece. On October 22 I noted "just when it looked like the 'public option' was dead it is being resurrected" & sure enough this donkey is going to try to fly. Cap & Trade was reintroduced last Friday with the Kerry-Boxer Senate Committee on Environment & Public Works release of revised legislation. BO's onslaught against America is relentless & tiresome for those who carry the burden of fighting to keep American values - like those who attend town hall meetings & tea parties. If you are represented in the House &/or Senate by a wavering on-the-fence politician re either healthcare reform or Cap & Trade better make the most of letting your views known to them. Dr. Sowell explains why below.
---Thomas Sowell - Dismantling America---
Barack Obama has not only said that he is out to "change the United States of America," the people he has been associated with for years have expressed in words and deeds their hostility to the values, the principles and the people of this country.
Jeremiah Wright said it with words: "God damn America!" Bill Ayers said it with bombs that he planted. Community activist goons have said it with their contempt for the rights of other people.
Among the people appointed as czars by President Obama have been people who have praised enemy dictators like Mao, who have seen the public schools as places to promote sexual practices contrary to the values of most Americans, to a captive audience of children.
Those who say that the Obama administration should have investigated those people more thoroughly before appointing them are missing the point completely. Why should we assume that Barack Obama didn't know what such people were like, when he has been associating with precisely these kinds of people for decades before he reached the White House?
Nothing is more consistent with his lifelong patterns than putting such people in government-- people who reject American values, resent Americans in general and successful Americans in particular, as well as resenting America's influence in the world.
Any miscalculation on his part would be in not thinking that others would discover what these stealth appointees were like. Had it not been for the Fox News Channel, these stealth appointees might have remained unexposed for what they are. Fox News is now high on the administration's enemies list.
Nothing so epitomizes President Obama's own contempt for American values and traditions like trying to ram two bills through Congress in his first year-- each bill more than a thousand pages long-- too fast for either of them to be read, much less discussed. That he succeeded only the first time says that some people are starting to wake up. Whether enough people will wake up in time to keep America from being dismantled, piece by piece, is another question-- and the biggest question for this generation.
