The American Spectator

The American Icarus leads us. In one fell swoop the community activist organizer moved from romper room to the White House. The American people elected a speech — not a leader — because that is what the childish juvenile liberal mind does.

America faces dark days ahead — not because its economic and foreign crises are of biblical proportion which they are — but because its leadership stock is made of mental pygmies and midgets. We are now led by people of flatulent words because they don’t have the smarts to lead otherwise.

Obama marks the emphatic end of the old post war order — about which he had nothing to do. He inherited his lot from corrupt failed leadership stretching back generations. Obama and company will keep flapping their lips while the sharks circle. They know that a boy was sent to do a man’s job.

Give up hope all ye who enter there.

IT’S ALL BEEN DONE BEFORE

Re: Hal G.P. Colebatch’s Britain’s Anti-Christian Kulturkampf:

Matthew 5:10-12 (NKJV): “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11: “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12: “Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”

The events of this article are sadly highly reflective of the persecution of Joseph K. from Kafka’s The Trial.

SOVIET ACORN
There is some $9 billion in the porkulus bill for ACORN and similar community organizations. These will agitate for “social justice,” forgiveness for mortgages of “underserved minorities,” and will conduct the 2010 census under the White House (not the traditional and constitutionally required census conducted by the Commerce Department). This will presumably correct for minority undercount. President Obama’s political career consists of 8 years of the Illinois House and US Senate experience and about 12 years as a community organizer, a lawyer for community organizers, and a law instructor for future lawyers for community organizers. Does anyone know the translation from the Russian “soviet”? Well, it is “community organization.” In the satellite communist countries “soviets” were also known as “block committees.” Food for thought, right?
