The Obama Watch
There Goes the Youth Vote
AttackWatch, the new Obama campaign site, confirms just how inept and out of touch this president is.
(Page 2 of 3)
There are plenty of web pages going after Obama’s propaganda and “thought police,” such as here and this amusing YouTube faux-advertisement here.
But the real beauty of AttackWatch, which is to say the seeds of its own destruction, is the campaign’s use of Twitter, allowing and encouraging thousands, or perhaps millions, of people to jump into the conversation.
As I follow #attackwatch in my Twitter application on Thursday morning, I can’t keep up with the updates. A new tweet hits about every two seconds, almost all of them obviously by people who are not just opposed to the administration’s Goebbels-like activities, but who are effectively turning AttackWatch into the biggest joke in Internet history.
Here are a few of the tweets which have come across the #attackwatch hashtag just during the writing of this article:
From DrFreeLance: “I saw a werewolf drinkin a pina colada at Trader Vic’s, and his hair was perfect.”
From chuckdevore (Republican state legislator in California): “Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean a big majority of us isn’t out to get you…”
From EddieRobbins: “My neighbor removed his Obama bumper sticker. I think he’s a racist.”
From DickMeyers: “Bless me #AttackWatch for I have sinned. I have muttered naughty words about our Dear Leader 9 times & have doubted his divinity a few times”
From joaniekensil: “Ate refried beans & chips for breakfast which is sort of racist foodist - Carbon emissions to follow.”
From PoliticalGravity: “Saw a kid with a lemonade stand and she didn’t have a permit.”
From thorninaz: “Hey #attackwatch, I saw 6 ATM’s in an alley, killing a Job. It looked like a hate crime!”
And from the always excellent IowaHawkBlog: “#AttackWatch have you cried “uncle” yet? Because we can keep this up all f***in’ day.”
Most of these occurred within a 2-minute span. You get the idea.
The beauty of the Twitter situation is that it is completely out of the government’s control. They can’t turn off the hashtag the same way they can turn off an e-mail address or a web page. At this pace, it’s only a matter of time before even Jon Stewart and Jay Leno jump on the train to shame and embarrass the Obama over AttackWatch. It’s too funny to avoid, even for a liberal, not least because it is so flamboyantly self-inflicted.
It’s hard to say what’s worse, the Administration’s blatant attempts at propaganda, its failure to learn from past mistakes (in this area and many others), or its truly remarkable incompetence. Don’t forget, in 2008, voters aged 18-29, likely the biggest group of Twitter users, cast 66 percent of their ballots for Barack Obama. And at election time, that age group had a 45 percent Democratic Party affiliation versus 26 percent for the Republicans (the parties were about even in this measure just eight years earlier).

I doubt seriously the Pretender-In-Chief, or his minions, have a original thought in their collective heads. If it is not in the Karl Marx, Saul Alinksi, Fidel Castro, Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin et. al., playbook they would not know what to do. They guys are so bad they resemble the Keystone Cops. (Nothing racial intended for all you PC types out there.) As stated can you imagine Richard Nixon doing this? Not even peanut head Jimmy Carter would do something like this.
USSAlabama| 9.16.11 @ 8:58AM
Speaking of Jimmy Carter - listen to the same sentences from Barack Obama ... Warning: this is eerie.

Any proof of that a'hole or just shooting your Anthony? (weiner)

On what rationale do you base this argument? State your case, because it's pretty hard to be as dismal as Obama.
The Clintidote| 9.17.11 @ 1:08AM
I think our country would be MUCH better off had both McCain and Oldbobdole been taken out in their respective wars. They're both useless statists.
That being said, Odumbass is far worse than either, obviously.
Kevin Dunn| 9.17.11 @ 8:03AM
I have read your comments before with the growing opinion that there is something seriously wrong with you. This proves it. You combine the salient features of idiot and scumbag, to put it politely.

Kevin: "You combine the salient features of idiot and scumbag, to put it politely." Come on Kevin, forget that politeness. Tell us what you really think.
MOS 1 1 2 | 9.19.11 @ 9:32AM
Sorry Kevin, I thought you were talking about Ross Kaminsky's article. Your comment is perfect regarding Alan Brooks statement. And how sick is The Clintidote, wishing that Bob Dole and John McCain should have died in Italy and Viet Nam, respectively. It's a downer for conservatives that we have some sh##heads on our side. Hey, Clintidote, what did you do in the war?
Jive Bomber| 9.17.11 @ 1:51PM
"...better than John Tortured-in-'Nam McCain..."
Alan: Friday, when you wrote this, it was National POW MIA Recognition Day. Ceremonies were held around the world in honor of those who have suffered the tortures of the damned - like John McCain.
But given that scarcely a day passes when you are not using McCain as your sole rebuttal to literally any topic of political discussion, I'm not surprised you jack-jaw blurted once again his name - the only thing in what passes for your bag of tricks.
I'm not here to promote McCain (unlike yourself, the rest of us realize he isn't running next year), I'm here to supplement your knowledge (as conservatives, we do it best) and helpfully point out that your POW wise-crack was a case of poor timing.
PS. Did you know Obama has a new toy to distract you? Yes, it's AttackWatch.org. There, you are free to tattle on any of us who say things that make you or our befuddled president pout!
Von| 9.18.11 @ 6:22PM
McCain is irrelevant, has been for 3 years. Yet every time you post its McCain, McCain, McCain. I think you have a man-crush on McCain, and like a little boy with a crush on a girl you just keep picking on him. Just so you know, McCain doesn't swing that way.
CESC| 9.19.11 @ 6:12PM
Brooks can only keep hoping...........
Timothy L. Pennell| 9.16.11 @ 7:14AM
You still don't get it. do ya?
To YOU, he's outta touch. To most :
"Regular" Americans, he's outta touch. Or, "He doesn't seem to get it". Or, "His handlers aren't giving him good information".
He is a LEFTIST. He is an UBER LEFTIST.
Does anyone think that, if this was the 60's, he wouldn't be BLOWING THINGS UP?
He wouldn't just be "Friends" with Bill Ayers. He'd be 2nd in Command of the Weather Underground. Mission #1: KILL WHITE BABIES.
The SLA. The Black Panthers. The Baader Meinhof Gang. It's what he's trained, his whole life, for.
Fortunately, for everyone, times have changed. Those Groups have joined the Ash Heap. But, the HATE survives. The hate of Free Will, and Independent thought. The Hate for everyone who will not be MOLDED by The Superior Mind. By the Great Leader. By THE ONE.
He is a True Believer in the Marxist Dream. The Dream of an ORDERED WORLD. Kept that way by an all powerful STATE. And ruled over by ONE MAN. Him.
He is the one we've been waiting for. You can see it in his eyes, when he gives his speeches. It was plain as day, in his Joint Session speech.
Why was this speech given, before a Joint Session of Congress? It was just a "Policy" speech.
It was given like that, for the same reason his Acceptance Speech had to be moved form the PEPSI CENTER, to a STADIUM. For the same reason that GREEK COLUMNS were placed around him. For, in his mind, he is THE ONE.
And that makes him Very Dangerous.
All throughout History, we've seen these Men. In Persia. In Babylon. In Egypt, and Rome. On the Thrones of Europe, the Plateaus of Asia, and behind an Iron Curtain.
Men who BELIEVE that they are the Superior Mind. That THEIR'S is the Superior way. None should Rule, but them.
But, it's not easy, being GOD. There is always someone else craves that position. An inevitable Paranoia sets in. A Survival Instinct. The People must be WATCHED.
Obama wants Spies, just like every DEMI-GOD that came before him. The Hitler Youth terrified their parents. They were the Fuhrer's eyes and ears. Soviet Children were REWARDED for divulging the thinkings of their Parents, to the State. Castro's Cuba, STILL, takes the Children away for Re-Education/Indoctrination.
They always go after the Children. They always keep us under Surveillance.
This ONE, is no different.
oldfart| 9.16.11 @ 7:38AM
The Barry's comments at Ground Zero - quoting Psalm 46 - a thoughtful person gets the very clear impression he was talking about himself. The measure of all that is good - in his mind.
Rick Z| 9.20.11 @ 10:52AM
Correction:
Psalms 109:8 is the correct Biblical reference for President Barry.
"Let his days be few; and let another take his office."
Viral on the net, and now available as a bumper sticker.
Teaghan| 9.16.11 @ 8:08AM
Lord Tim, your seriousness ruined my chuckle about the article. It was funny thinking of the panic obama and his handlers are in, "love me, help me pass the bill!" How desparate is that!! How unpresidential is that.
Maddox| 9.16.11 @ 9:52AM
I thought this "attackwatch" idea must have come from elementary students. Evidently it did. Children often use "if you love me, you will let me (have this or do that)."
Are they that dumb or do they believe the American people are?
Mike D.| 9.16.11 @ 12:14PM
Thats pathetic, beyond desperate. This guy is unraveling.
Sam Vaughn| 9.16.11 @ 9:16AM
I'm with you guys with one modification - Obama is a coward. My grandfather would have called him a skulker, always getting other people to do the dirty work while he kept his hands clean. IN fact I'd bet he doesn't really believe anything, he just chose the left-wing path to power without really believing anything. He's a cold-blooded con artist willing to tell anyone anything as long as he doesn't have to do the work. Case in point he has never written anything that can be attributed to his pen. Harvard Law Review? Not one syllable.
Alice Moore| 9.16.11 @ 10:48AM
Socialism fails every time it is tried. Yet, it still has fervent adherents. I've come to the conclusion that attracts two types of adherents. Those who believe that it has never had a proper implementation are one group. When you give this type quantitative and irrefutable facts about Soviet oppression that person will come back with, "fat, drunk, old, ignorant white guys in bad suits." This is a direct quote BTW. Whoda thunk? All those ding-a-ling Russian leaders are to blame? For these types, since many are secularists, Marxism/Socialism is in the place of spiritual faith.
The second type has the insatiable will to power. Marxism is the perfect vehicle for this type. If this type of believer is intelligent along with the lust for power we have a very dangerous person. They might have started life as the bossy little hall monitor but, as adults they have bigger ambitions. We've seen their like with Stalin, Hitler, and Mao.
What bout the current occupant of the WH? He is more of the first category of follower. He is most definitely not the man behind the curtain.
Roy N.| 9.16.11 @ 11:28AM
You wrote "Socialism fails every time it is tried." Absolutely and it can't be stated enough. BO and his minions are socialists/marxists.
PolishKnight| 9.18.11 @ 8:34PM
Hello Alice,
Note, I'm one of the "good guys" so I ask this question sincerely: What about Sweden? I'm not saying that Sweden is perfect or that it proves socialism is great but overall, it's not a "failure". People live good lives there. And of course, much of Sweden's success is demographics and historical luck (little damage from WWII, lack of significant low literacy immigration although that's changing, etc.)
In theory, and often in the short term, socialism HAS worked and that's perhaps why so many the world over love it so much: They think that if they can just round up all the capitalists in a basement in Ekaterina then they'll be able to enjoy lives as cool hipsters in Amsterdam II the world over.
Want to scare your average leftist? Point out the cultural suicide of Western Europe as they've swallowed their own dogma that they tried to use to weaken the USA.
FreedomRings| 9.16.11 @ 3:17PM
My brother had the same observation about Obama last week - that he is, essentially, a coward. Where he first knew it for certain was watching Obama's interview with Bill O'Reilly during the 2008 campaign - and it was Obama's body language that gave it away. My bro said the exact same mannerisms Obama used during that interview are the ones he'd seen cowards he has known during his life use repeatedly. It was a real "aha" moment.
beebop| 9.16.11 @ 6:55PM
He's a cold-blooded con artist willing to tell anyone anything as long as he doesn't have to do the work.
Nope.
He's willing to tell anyone anything just to be loved.

You're wrong. He is suffering from the lack of love -- no father, angry white mother -- no one held him so those who would use him for their own means knew that what would motivate him was being loved. He is a horror.

Because the news is so depressing I am now turning to Attack Watch tweets for entertainment.
Not only do you see some of those pundits who we rely on for the "real news" like Ross', you also see tweets from people who think like us (I'm speaking for the smart people on The American Spectator - not liberals).
Funny stuff and once again gives you hope that maybe we can save this nation from another 4 years of the dangerous lunatic in the White House.
Teaghan| 9.16.11 @ 11:08AM
Me too, Carol. Just reactivated my account and added AttackWatch. Seems to be dying down just a bit.
Kevin Dunn| 9.16.11 @ 7:28AM
Attackwatch is not only profoundly unAmerican and Totalitarian, it is a confession of total failure. Good ,or even merely competent, Government doesn't NEED such things - its successes speak for themselvs. Obama's delusions of adequacy are getting deeper.
Nancy in NC| 9.16.11 @ 7:28AM
obummer is a joke "if you love me" and a president that clearly hates most of the American people, particularly those who disagree with his Alinsky-like, Hitler-like tactics.
It would be funnier if his policies were not taking this country down the road to serfdom faster everyday. And still many support him.
It's unreal.

A note of caution. The inept politicians with big egos are very dangerous. Because they are so far from reality Obama could try something --which amounts to an attempted takeover-- or something along the lines of extraordinary voter fraud or something else. This guy is anti-social and while he has many even funny and rediculous behaviors I would not take an eye off every move he makes for a second. He cannot be trusted.
Mimi| 9.16.11 @ 7:54AM
To ATTACK-WATCH.... Please take note of all my posts written against OBAMA...They may be of help to you of WHY you won't be in POWER very long after 2012!
Also ....WHY not deal with the lack of respect this President gets....Is it his dancing and prancing around like a teenager ? Is it all those "FIBS'?...Is it HIS lack of respect for all the people? Would it help any if he humbled himself and ADMITTED mistakes ?
We the AMERICAN PEOPLE are very alarmed that the PRESIDENCY itself may be disrespected because of his PLAY-ACTING , incompetence, and HARM done to the country!
I wonder how many citizens you are ..." GONNA-CATCH?".....Thank God we still have a Constitution....You planning on "JAILING" 60% of 300 million of us?
Mimi| 9.16.11 @ 8:05AM
PS to ATTACK-WATCH....Do you have accomodations for that many people?...Like FOOD and TOILET PAPER? You may get a lot of SNITCHERS cause the way things are going out here....all 300 million of us will be lokking for "THREE HOTS AND COT" !!

Note to Obama Operatives:
Attackwatch is providing you with the largest focus group ever compiled in the history of market & opinion research. Hope it works out.
martin j smith| 9.16.11 @ 8:15AM
One must ask oneself why a President would go around doping things are are clearly un -popular even though he is fully aware of this ( and he is ). I do not entirely buy the "incompetent" theory of Obama. Another idea of mine is that Obama knows full well that he will not run for a second term and the Socialists will "suggest" that he do a Lyndon Johnson and not run for a second term. Even if this is done--which is not totally of the realm of possibility yet--the substitute candidate will still have his or her record of support for Obama plus Obama's record itself. What are the chances of this happening ? I have no idea but it is possible.
JFGalt| 9.16.11 @ 8:22AM
I saw the most perfect quote today that explains OBAMA! and his whole clan of leftists - written by a poster on another site who calls himself "Cicero" - WOW! He describes perfectly the mindset of the MSM and CNN---
The willfully delusional leftist mind will always evade truth in favor of the political power interests of the collective. Unless it by chance further empowers the leaders and benefits the mob, accountability to truth has zero validity in leftist doctrine. This is the definition of moral and intellectual relativism. It’s what enables leftists to mislead themselves and everyone else by twisting and mangling language such as “social justice”, “equality”, “fairness”, “progressive, and “democracy.”
Mike D.| 9.16.11 @ 2:12PM
"the ends justify the means" Thats the Leftist rulebook, 5 words, no messy morals, no sticky rules or limitations. Period.
Patrick| 9.19.11 @ 2:26AM
The ends justify the means, if only we knew what the ends were. In the meantime, we will randomly flail about with excessive use of means and hope we get lucky with the ends part.
Old Will| 9.23.11 @ 7:13PM
In Up From Liberalism, Bill Buckley wrote that liberals have no end or goal. Their entire focus is on process. Democracy. Education. Share the wealth. Etc.
That's why they can never have any failures. As long as the process continues, that's all that's important.
RMTINPGI| 9.16.11 @ 8:39AM
Attackwatch, when combined with his pathetic: "If you love me supplication" might lead one to believe our future includes the best of 1936 Germany and Franco's Spain with a little Banana Republic tossed in for comic relief.

This administration doesn't believe in honest disagreements. They only see enemies. The paranoia is similar to a psychotic who only sees "martians" everywhere he looks. And this is what we have directing the affairs of 300 million Americans and influencing the lives of planet-wide billions. I feel extremely uncomfortable knowing that our anti-social, immoral and paranoid government has its finger on the nuclear trigger.

It's ironic that his actions and agenda have brainwashed so many, the very people who in the 60s protested against government intervention and control, gestapo-like actions of the police, and now this tattletailing scheme, they've been suckered into their fantasy life again....which drugs are vogue now? The very same thing, spying on neighbors which were thought to possibly be affiliated with terrorist groups (known to affiliate with terrorists, yes terrorists, muslums) and was highly protested against is now okay to use against average Americans because Obama doesn't like criticism? Has a psychotic disorder of grandiosity and paranoia? For someone soooo intelligent, no smart, he hasn't figured out how to turn the tide? Fascinating.....

Ross Kaminsky | 9.16.11 @ 11:16AM
This is not just about a "Twitter flame war." This is about the Obama administration repeatedly trying to get citizens to use the Internet to report on other citizens. It's reprehensible, and if it were done by Bush, the left would rightly be up in arms with Nazi and Soviet references, with mentions of Cuba's "block captains", and so on.
It takes a really stupid, out of touch administration to not only try this once, but to try it multiple times.
My article speaks for itself: This whole situation makes Obama look terrible and makes conservatives look good, or at least like we have a sense of humor (which we do.)

There. I hope someone reports THAT. This attack watch crap is from a playbook that predates even commies/regressives. Like in THIS instance. This is an excerpt from Cicero's First Philippic, his orations againt Caesar &, in this one specificall, Antony:
"Let him employ arms, if it is neccessary, as he says it is, for his own defence: only let not those arms injure those men who have declared their honest sentiments in the affairs of the republic. Now, what can be more reasonable than this demand? But if, as has been said to me by some of his [Antony's] intimate friends, every speech which is contrary to his inclination is violently offensive, to him, even if there be no insult in it whatever, then we will bear the natural disposition of our friend. But those men, at the same time, say to me, 'you will not have the same license granted to you who are the adversary of Caesar as might be claimed by Piso his father in law.' And then they warn me of something of which I must guard against; and certainly, the excuse which sickness supplies me with, for not coming to the senate, will not be a more valid one than that which is furnished by death."...Marcus Tullius Cicero, The First Philippic

Great Article! As a 25 year old, I graduated in May 2008. In March '07 I saw Barack Obama "speak" in Milwaukee; it was the day of the Virginia Tech shooting and it was not moving. It was actually puzzling. I went for free, so it was just the gas money that I wasted.
Or did I waste anything? I gained a distinct knowledge of the man and fought hard to fight what my classmates were being told on the "Daily Show", of which I constantly reminded was entertainment news. I wanted Ron Paul for President, and was told by both sides said that I was a cynic- up to the point of sitting in my graduation chair.
Ross, You are directly on. My husband and I discussed this just last night; technology can and is used for both good and evil and usually evil is masquerading as good.
I would like a Herman Cain/Newt Gingrich ticket. Herman Cain has sound fiscal ideas and can think from a business perspective; whether we want to admit it or not, we need this in government. Right Now. If we didn't need it, then why did Bush love Corporations by giving "the private sector a formal role in the government" by creating the North American Competitiveness Council and why has Obama snuggled up to Immelt, the first name at the top of the list of 33 Corporations giving instructions to the government? Herman Cain's "9-9-9" tax program and unilateral responsibility of the Fed policy should be garnered serious attention.
Newt has been the Secret Moderator at these debates, qualifying what every person on stage has to say in regards to a certain policy, but reminding us all what the main goal is and it just so happens that everyone on stage agrees with the main goals. His experience in politics is a great way to begin the shift toward a structured fiscal policy.
I am an Anti-Corporatist Constitutional Libertarian; let's keep the Rights of the People by keeping the Responsibility of Government Small.

And therein lies the problem, Nope - young people are too God damn stupid to assess candidates by thoroughly examining the issues and applying resolute critical discernment. Instead, they slap their nickel down on the candidate who entertains or "inspires" them with meaningless platitudes that fit on a bumper sticker or appeal to their self-inflated notion that they can change the world (not necessarily change it for the better, mind you, just change it). Then they actually believe they've made a meaningful contribution to the world at large by embracing "hope" or "change" or electing the first African American president.
Nah, you can keep your cool, funny, and lighthearted candidates. I rather prefer a serious one.

Ross' editorial is [as usual] extremely informative and should be carefully read and re-read for it's TRUTH. It ain't comedy, folks, but sadly factual that this DEMOCRAT administration is using its Chicago Way radicalistic street merchant thuggisms to the maximum. I've often suspected that on this website which I mostly read and blog from is composed of the conspiratorial political operatives BLOGGERS/COMMENTORS within this administration of which Ross so eloquently describes. For additional proof of this situation, please read the following by attorney-writer David Limbough: '.....The concept of this website is perversely amusing when you consider the administration's history of manipulating the Internet for political gain. I reported in my book "Crimes Against Liberty" that the Obama-Holder Justice Department had formed a secret in-house blogging group to participate on websites to influence public opinion. Dubbed the "Blog Squad," this political operation was operating out of the very halls of the institution dedicated to administering justice in the United States. On the taxpayers' dime, it was paying partisan political operatives to scour the Internet for news stories, commentaries, and blog posts critical of the administration's agenda and then post comments supporting the administration — all without identifying who was behind the posts.Some of the administration's advisers didn't even disguise their intent to use the Internet deceitfully for political purposes. One of Obama's "closest confidants," Cass Sunstein, as head of the administration's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, has openly advocated the government's use of fake websites and outside 501(c)(3) interest groups to front as independent supporters of government policy and to — get this — "cognitively infiltrate" opposing websites.What, you ask, is "cognitive infiltration"? That's easy. Salon's Glenn Greenwald — no right-wing extremist — wrote that while at Harvard Law School in 2008, Sunstein co-wrote "a truly pernicious paper proposing that the U.S. government employ teams of covert agents and pseudo-'independent' advocates to 'cognitively infiltrate' online groups and websites — as well as other activist groups — which advocate views that Sunstein deems 'false conspiracy theories.'"
In other words, one of Obama's right-hand men suggested that government employees masquerade as private citizens to "infiltrate" websites and try to influence public opinion as if they were just random citizens. Before you pooh-pooh this because it purports to be in opposition only to "conspiracy theories," remember that this administration's Justice Department used government publications to defame tea party protesters and returning veterans as conspiracy theorists, racists, religious nuts, and domestic terrorists. If you think Sunstein's proposed surreptitious activities are limited to the innocuous exposure of crazies, you have another think coming.....' Once again, IT'S THE DEMOCRATS, STUPIDS!!!!!!!!!!

Dear John T,
I'm not sure if you're directing that comment towards me, but if so here is your answer:
I am actually Barack Obama's housekeeper's cousin's boyfriend's ex-dog-walker, and a complete Obama zombie.
I don't believe anything I write and it's lucky for me that the evil capitalists who run these pages are rich and dumb enough (aren't all capitalists?) to pay me $20 per word, which is why my articles tend to be longer than other people's articles.
In fact, I made $4.3 million writing this drivel last year.
The problem is that every time I try to make liberals look good so that The One can win re-election, people like you come along and blow my cover, and other so-called "liberals" (so moderate in reality they should be with the capitalists first against the wall when the revolution comes) write comments which make it oh so difficult to make our side look good.
I mean, look at "Alan Brooks"! Is that really the clay with which our side is supposed to sculpt a re-election victory?!? And for that matter, what about you? Jeez, it's so depressing thinking of how shallow the gene pool is from which my fellow Obama supporters have slithered.
(For the record, I am fairly well educated, though Occam's Tool has spent a lot more time in grad schools than I have.)
Tenn Slim| 9.17.11 @ 8:04AM
The Posts are consistent with the Site Article.
In truth, they are missing the point.
1. Obama is steeped in Marxism. His associates are Socialist. He is intent on the Means justifying the Ends.
2. Obama is not an idiot. He is cleverly doing exactly what his original and long standing intent has been, the Demise of the Republic. GNP = < 1% per qrtr? if that is not a Socialistic success and a Marxist success, I could not find a better merit point.
3. The Leftist Internal structure is now nearly complete. Appointees, hired guns, Civil Service take over agencies, all in place. Add the "Pending Fiscal Crisis" and you have the 2012 Election well in hand.
Obama and his Minions will not go quietly into the night. The 1930's Wiemar republic, the Third Reich end, the 1917 Lenin/Stalin revolution all have parrallels to the situation of today. NOTE: ALL ended in nations flaming fiscally and physically into oblivion.

I agree that Obama and his Democrat/progressive/liberal/leftist fellow travelers know exactly what they do.
I suspect, though, that megalomaniac that he is, Obama thought that Americans would just bow obsequiously as he and his thugs dismantle our Republic.
I also agree that I believe we've reached the point where words no longer matter, not that they ever did, regarding Marxist Obama and his thugo-administration.
We need to behave as if there really is no tomorrow.
If not, perhaps soon there will be none.

The first thing that struck me about the Attack Watch website was the colors the Obamaviks chose for the web page. The "Hitler" analogies have been beaten to death but - black, red and white - the Nazi's colors? You'd think even an Obamavik would have more sense. Then again, maybe not.

His choice of colors shows that he is under the influence of drugs, bad advisors and a negative approach to governing.
He chose those colors to scare people and make it look like emergency time.
Hitler wore the Red, White and Black patch on his arm as did all Nazi dogs.
NICE JOB OBAMA--AS USUAL--FAIL!

Dear AttackWatch; my neighbor says Obama is a dork. I say he is a dick. Who's right? Dick or Dork?

Please report me for giving the finger to the radio and/or television when I hear his voice.

You are so right about BHO being out of touch. He goes on one of many lavish vacations, different planes than his Mrs. & then screams for US to help Poor People

The hussein is shocked that communism is not widely accepted here, must be that bang affirmative action.

I joined the AttackWatch site just to see it in action.
FASCISM IS ON THE RISE IN AMERICA.
THIS SITE IS SCARY--OBAMA AND HIS MINIONS HAVE TO BE SWEPT OUT OF OFFICE--SOME NEED TO GO TO JAIL.
The site is sick.

I suspect that Obama's handlers put him in front of students because that audience is so safe for the Prevaricator-and-Whiner-in-Chief.
Besides being a coward, Obama represents a moral, social, intellectual and political malignancy that must be overcome and discharged from the body of our Republic.
Same goes for those in the Democrat/progressive/liberal/leftist Party and its propaganda arm in the one-mainstream news media.
We must eject Obama from the White House and the DPLLs from any semblance of a majority in any branch of our government.

I think that Obama( I use this generically to mean the Socialist forces )are talking to the activist youth and encouraging violence. It is time to have our Presidential candidate to call out Obama on his Dictatorial,divisive, and dangerous rhetoric. HE is UNCIVIL.

I heard a guy say something bad about Obama. I was in the 57th state, he was speaking Austrian. It was on memorial day, he looked like he was a corpse man and he had a bunch of our fallen heroes with him.

If you go to the site. They want all the info they can get on you, including your name and address, and they ask for money and your credit card. I guess with this crowd you have to pay to be their rat patrol and forget about doing it anonymously. Everybody knows what happens to a snitch in the long run!!

Dear college Grads Yes! Mr Obama Has just introduced A jobs plan. Upon your Graduation You will be introduced To a Wheel barrow where you can haul concrete on bridge repairs whether they are needed or not. Yes you can engineer your way around mounds of re-barb and other grads who Have stopped to look with amazement at their first blisters. Don't Worry in 50 yrs or so you'll have made enough to qualify for that deluxe apartment in the exclusive "PROJECTS" neighberhood .So don't be sad all those rich basterds will be right there with you. Then looking back you'll be able to say " I don't have a penny to my name but By God those filthy rich are in the same boat as me".See what a wonderful world Obama made everybody's the same nobody has a damn thing. well at least the health care panel will soon decide to put you out of your misery as you have reached the mandatory death age of 70. You would't want to be a burden to society would you? I thought so!! Obama would be so proud of your sacrafice!!!!
