Not Speaking As a Leader

Despising Obama. Iran and the West. Stupak, Obama's abandonment and more.

DESPISING ALL THAT HE STANDS FOR
Re: Mark Hyman's The Man Who Despises America:

I agree with the column and am glad it was written. We do have a President who despises America. I, like many, despise him and all he stands for. It's time people see what he is and it's time for him to be put back where he really belongs, with the Chicago thugs, race hustlers, cheats and liars from which he came.
His words at the memorial yesterday were cold and lacked feeling for the country that had been attacked by a terrorist. Obama looked pissed that he had to speak and be there with the US soldiers.

Obama did not speak as a Leader of those soldiers. His words did not give aid and comfort to the soldiers or to the country. He was saying the least he could choke out, but his face and his eyes said he hated everything he had to do at Fort Hood yesterday. He is disgusting and needs to be gone from the White House.

I will work toward that end next election time.
-- Mrs. Judith Hardman

".....The difference between Obama and his immediate predecessors such as Ronald Reagan, the George Bushes and Bill Clinton who actually revere and honor the greatness of America and its citizens and institutions cannot be overstated."

One thing I would like to point out on Mark Hyman's article is that Bill Clinton DID NOT revere and honor the greatness of America. He pooped on it every day. Bill Clinton is still the Massage Parlor Pimp-In-Chief and scum of earth. I don't see how Mark put him in the same rank with Reagan and the Bushes. Bill Clinton belongs with the worst president Jimmy Carter, another LIE-BERAL Democrat. Bill Clinton is cheering Obama on right now for destroying America, so he and Hillary can take White House ONE MORE time. Greed and Evil Desire for power are what they are after, with the Billion Dollar Massage Parlor foundation to go with it.
-- James Shin

As a reader of The American Spectator since its days as a newspaper
format in the early 1980s, I have marveled at and enjoyed the many
superb articles contained within its pages or on its website.  But
today, two of the very best articles ever grace the on-line TAS in an
astounding
 display of writing.

 Mark Hyman's "The Man Who Despises America" and Peter Ferrara's "The Absolutely Worst Bill Ever" are absolutely dynamite! The commentaries and facts are above and beyond anything that the rest of the print
media could ever hope to produce.

Yes, Barack Hussein Obama, or whatever his real name is, despises America. Many, many people knew this months ago.

He also despises most Americans, especially, it seems, those who have toiled and perspired in service to their country and/or to make something of themselves and provide for their families. That's obvious, too.Maybe he despises anyone -- ANYONE -- who is not him?

Equally distressing to me -- and this is not entirely rhetorical: How and why did so many people who must've seen this vote for this anti-American, racist, Marxist empty suit?

Does his ascendency -- he wasn't elected, really -- mean that the Democrat party, which found and then promoted, this community organizer and back-bench warmer in the Illinois and U.S. legislatures, also now fully despises America and Americans? I see lots and lots of current and historical evidence. I see more evidence daily.

Again, though, how and why have people calling themselves American empowered these rogues in Congress and this rogue president, all who flaunt their hatred of America and its Constitution?
-- C. Kenna Amos Jr.

This piece catalogues Obama's disdain for America. If most Americans agree with him shame on us. His views are typical of liberal academia, parasites that live off the earnings of average Americans whom they despise.
-- Gary

What happens when old media are partisan -- failing to vet the candidate objectively.

Don't make the mistake of Bush's detractors who attacked him as a "Hitler"; such was similar to today attacking Obama as a "Marxist".

C.K. Amos| 11.12.09 @ 9:25PM

Thanks for the advice, but I did not "attack" Obama.

Though, God knows, he has many many thin-skinned surrogate whiners who look for offense, doesn't he, that even the slightest observation about Obama is construed as attack?

As Stephen Zierak suggested, though in different words, Obama's political breeding is red, even by his own words. Nothing Obama's done since being elected has shown he wants to change his colors to red, white and blue.

Alan Brooks| 11.12.09 @ 11:31PM

and Michael Moore never "attacked" Bush;
when Moore released Fahrenheit 911 it was "constructive criticism".

Alan Brooks| 11.12.09 @ 11:38PM

btw, not to praise that film in any way, IMO 'Bowling For Columbine' was far FAR better-- it is almost worth purchasing.

Why even argue with you? You obviously are oblivious and refuse to acknowledge the POTUS is exactly what he is showing us he is. Sadly, most people like you will wake up one day and wonder how we got into this mess. By then it'll be too late and your worship of this man will leave you with much regret for not seeing what so many people are warning. He is a Marxist, if not by his own words, by his own actions. No one is attacking or slandering him. He is displaying who he is for everyone to see. If his approval from Fidel Castro is not enough to send shivers up your spine, then no one can make you see reality. Unfortunately for the rest of us who DO LOVE THIS COUNTRY, we can only watch and hope this man does not completely destroy it. Michael Moore? Really? This is who you rely upon? A man who contrary to popular beliefs is moved by greed and fame. If he really believes what he claims he should put his money where his mouth is. It is easy to tell others how to live when one is living in luxury. Hollywood elitist and hypocrites. I guarantee they are taking their monies and investing it where they know it is protected. The rest of us will watch our dreams and retirement hopes crumble. You sir, will only have yourself to blame. Blind and dumb.

Stephen Zierak| 11.12.09 @ 10:37AM

Calling Obama a Marxist is NOT the same as attacking Bush as Hitler. Read Obama's books! He has honored Marxists, hung out with Marxists, and has now appointed Marxists to White House positions. I don't think you will find any such Bush involvements with neo-Nazis. If it looks like a duck, waddles like a duck, and quacks like a duck--it's a duck! We don't need any irrational moral equivalency arguments here.

Jim O'Brien| 11.12.09 @ 1:02PM

If Obama did not have to deal with elections and the Supreme Court, he would nationalize all major industries, outlaw private medical insurance, and much much more ........ he would throw the Constitution in the trash can.

Alan Brooks| 11.12.09 @ 8:16PM

"I don't think you will find any such Bush involvements with neo-Nazis."

Of course he does, neoNazis (white supremacists) are as common as Marxists, though they might not be as destructive as Marxists; 21 st century neoNazis just want to breed a master race socially-- but no longer politically. They're not so stupid to think anymore that they can take over the world.

C.K. Amos| 11.12.09 @ 9:15PM

"Of course"? Prove it, sir. That and your assertion that "neo-Nazis are as common as Marxists."

Alan Brooks| 11.12.09 @ 11:49PM

"Of course"? Prove it, sir. That and your assertion that "neo-Nazis are as common as Marxists."

prove? Only Daphne Kenward and Daffy Duck think something can be proved.

"neoNazi" has sinister overtones-- but today neoNazi merely means a guy wants to sleep with blond women and breed 'aryan' children. The positive side is he wants to send them to good schools. Who says white supremacists are all wrong about everything?: Writing so would be PC.

maria| 11.21.09 @ 11:07AM

"prove? Only Daphne Kenward and Daffy Duck think something can be proved. "

Someone that would actually imply there are no absolute truths is a moron. I say that with absolute conviction and the proof for what I say is in your statement.

Sangano!

maria| 11.21.09 @ 11:08AM

By the way it's "proven" not proved...

C.K. Amos| 11.12.09 @ 9:26PM

Thanks for the reply. Couldn't get to friendly computer until tonight.

A Gingrich will be elected a year from now who facilitate Obama's re-election.
Want to wager? no, because none of you, save for Daphne Kenward, is a dope. And she appears to have ceased blogging at AS-- the nurse is mixing an extra 2 milligrams of haldol into her mashed potatoes.

obama will not stop until he has utterly destroyed america at the orders of his masters. he will then be seated as world president of a newly resurgent un. for some, it is better to rule on earth than serve in heaven.

Our system has always been a full contact sport. If you think that todays invective is rough, I suggest you read from yesteryear, particularly about Grover Cleveland and Andrew Jackson. Today we are positively genteel, in comparison. Code Duello, anyone?
