Since the Boyne City Gazette, during this momentous time in our country's history, has decided to only carry stories with a local focus, this is the first of my columns which they would not print. I will be posting more of my columns here, however. Please help spread the columns to friends and family.
Recently Barack
Obama had the audacity (referring to his book The Audacity of Hope) to
say to small business owners, “If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build
that!” Despite cries to the contrary,
listening to the full speech only makes it worse, as you can see if you Google
the speech. He was saying that it is
government which made the roads, etc.
Isn’t it we the taxpayers, and the more successful ones especially, who
paid the government taxes which built that infrastructure?
Barack, you did not
build this great country which has stood as a beacon for freedom and
opportunity for many decades. In fact,
your wife was never proud of America
until you became a Presidential candidate!
Perhaps she doesn’t understand that it was Africa’s
black kings who sold their own citizens into slavery. Maybe she forgets that it
was American families who endured the death of 600,000 to rid our country of
slavery. Republican President Abraham
Lincoln freed those slaves and Republicans passed most civil rights laws prior
to 1960, including their right to vote – with few Democrats joining them. Perhaps she cut classes when they were
describing the amazing efforts of America’s military and citizens in
defeating Hitler, saving the world, freeing those who were in concentration
camps and then rebuilding their countries. Perhaps she is unaware of the fact
that it is America
which goes to the rescue of any country devastated by nature, even those of our
enemies. America has led the world in
innovation and has provided its hard-working citizens the chance to rise from
poverty to success. Those are just some
of the things that have always made me proud.
Obama did not
personally endanger himself to write the Constitution he disdains, nor the Bill
of Rights, as did our Founding Fathers. Obama
did nothing to actually earn the Peace Prize other than spout platitudes of
peace and understanding. He then
proceeded to announce that he personally oversees his own “kill list” for
choosing whom the military should kill each week.
Obama is not the
one who developed the Affirmative Action programs which afforded him the
miraculous life he has had. He did not
develop America’s
can-do, work hard, seeking-excellence family traditions, but he is doing a lot
to undermine them through government programs.
Here are some
things Obama DID build: Obamacare, which most Americans did not want; raising
our country’s debt more in his first 4 yrs. than President Bush did in 8 years;
a government full of radicals, Communists and Muslims; negative job creation
since his Inaugural and continuing rises in unemployment; the worst national
intelligence leaks in many decades (endangering our military and our allies); speech
designed to divide Americans from one another, promoting envy and hatred; unkempt
promises of transparency; an unbalanced budget; plenty of new taxes; lobbyists
in his Administration; and a valid challenge to Richard Nixon’s Enemy List via
his website for turning in fellow citizens for perhaps speaking untruths about
Obamacare. He has made our borders
porous, refuses to follow our Immigration laws and offers work permits to up to
1.5 million illegals at a time when American young people have an unemployment
rate of 15%. He has overseen an
Administration which is totally against voters having to prove they are who
they say they are, and that they are American citizens.
He has built an America which is uncertain about its future
under his guidance, an America
which is afraid to expand her businesses or hire more employees due to that
uncertainty. He has benefitted from a
media who for many reasons are his campaign workers in their efforts to get him
reelected. He has built a system of cronyism wherein 80%
of Stimulus funds were given to his donors and Democrats. He has perfected a system which rewards his
friends and demonizes those who disagree with his agenda and policies, with his
minions claiming racism as the motivation, even though he is half white.
These are the things
you have built, Mr. President, and America is all the worse because of
them. I bring to you all the often-hidden
news. Readers must take the
responsibility to use it.

If I wanted America to fail: a powerful video“If I wanted America to fail” video goes viral, but Twitter suspends group’s account; Update: Account restored

The Obama campaign and notoriously liberal “fact-check” websites such as factcheck.org, Politifact, and the Washington Post‘s “Fact Checker” said President Obama never went on an “apology tour” and has never apologized for American actions.
However, in the first few months of the president’s term, Obama repeatedly did speak of America’s past mistakes in a series of appearances, several of which fell in foreign countries. It was also revealed in a top secret cable published in 2011 by Wikileaks that the Japanese government vetoed the idea of President Obama visiting Hiroshima in September 2009 and apologizing for the atomic bomb.
Here are five examples of Obama apologizing for America, first collected in 2009 by “Hannity,” which occurred in quick succession during Obama’s April 2009 tour of foreign countries and in two speeches in the United States shortly thereafter. http://freebeacon.com/five-times-obama-has-apologized-for-america/
