The Obama administration is more dangerous to America in many ways than any terrorist organization. What this cabal is doing to the country in stripping it of its most cherished values, its basic morality, its foundation on the rule of law, its liberties and its economy is more devastating than anything Mohammed and his zealots could have ever imagined.

"O'Reilly Asks Dobbs: Is Obama the Devil?"
at The Young Turks Nov 17 2009

Are Republicans and Conservatives hoping to stir up their base in order to entice a would be assassin to take a shot at Obama while the Religious Right will feign complete and utter innocence.

Schaeffer says the Religious Right is America's equivalent to the Taliban . They want only "real Christians" & "Real Americans " to be in positions of authority and to represent the US federal government. Their rhetoric has been ginned up to the point of justifying violence against Obama who is according to them a foreign element ie not born in America or not having white parents or being a "secret Muslim" or "Secret Jihadist" who has usurped the presidency.

The religious right uses quotes from the Bible to justify their beliefs and ideology in the same way the Taliban and other extremist Muslims use the Quran to support their beliefs and their violent actions. And both groups have a habit of sherry picking their Holy Books and interpreting the text to fit their own personal views and beliefs and their ideology even if this means distorting the original intent of the text they are using. Meanwhile Republicans and Fox News including Glenn beck & Bill O'Reilly etc. support the rhetoric and violent actions of the Religious Right and the secular Far Right.

Obama they all claim is a foreign presence who is not a real American and who now joins the ranks of the unjust kings of Ancient Israel who must be deposed.
They characterize Obama as being anti-Christian and as a Muslim who favors a Jihad against America. Beck and others have labeled Obama a Communist, a socialist , a Fascist and as a racist who hates whites and they even claim Obama is an anti-Semite.





Rachel Maddow: Some Religious Right Calling For Obama's Death?



Here's the verses from the Bible referred to in order to justify hating and eventually ousting Obama from the presidency by legal or illegal means.

Psalm 109- from St. James version of the Bible

5: And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6: Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.
7: When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.
8: Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
9: Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10: Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
11: Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.
12: Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.
13: Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14: Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15: Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
16: Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.
17: As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
18: As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
19: Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.
20: Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul.

They confuse ceremonial traditions which Obama adheres to out of politeness and respect and a willingness to listen to the opinions of others. Instead the Republicans and the Conservatives want Obama to show not deference or mutual respect instead to appear as the bully and tell China, Japan , Saudi Arabia who's the most powerful. But so do they want other world leaders to bow to Obama and not look him in the eye because he is their superior .It appears the confuse an elected president with an Emperor as in Rome or with the ancient form of God-King as in ancient Egypt.

Of course if Obama had acted more in the way they claim he should have we can be assured they would find something objectionable to that as well. They forget President Obama in part wants to restart American diplomacy and American good-will rather than promoting American arrogance and reminding all these leaders how many Nukes the US has and that if they don't tow the American Party line then get ready for a hard rain of nuclear missiles or a few hundred bombing raids on their country. Obama is trying to get rid of the "Ugly American" view of the United States.

The thing of it is that it is not China that is in debt to the US but the US is in debt to China for some 400 billion or so- just imagine the interest on that. China and other nations to whom the US is indebted to are concerned the US will not make good on these loans.

" The diplomacy of deference" by Mike Allen at Politico.com, Nov. 17, 2009

BEIJING — Greeting the Japanese emperor at Tokyo’s Imperial Palace last weekend, President Barack Obama bowed so low that he was looking straight at the stone floor. The next day, Obama shook hands with the prime minister of repressive Myanmar during a group meeting. The day after that, the president held a “town hall” with Chinese university students who had been selected by the regime.

The images from the president's journey through Asia carried a potent symbolism that has riled critics back home. One conservative website called the episodes “Obamateurism.” Former Vice President Dick Cheney told POLITICO that Obama was advertising “weakness.”

But White House aides say the approach is deliberate — part of Obama’s determination to deliver on his campaign promise of directly engaging friends and enemies alike, giving America a less belligerent posture abroad.

“I think it's very important for the United States not to assume that what is good for us is automatically good for somebody else,” Obama told the students at the town hall, in Shanghai. “And we have to have some modesty about our attitudes towards other countries.”

...But critics call Obama’s outstretched hand a miscalculation. Cheney said: "There is no reason for an American president to bow to anyone. Our friends and allies don't expect it, and our enemies see it as a sign of weakness."

...“When you accept the meeting you know that may happen,” the official said. “The president’s not going to run away from that. The risk of some negative press is outweighed by the benefits of developing a more civil relationship that may change the way that Myanmar’s leaders interact with their own people.”

Aides said that in the meeting, Obama called on Myanmar to free all political prisoners, including pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi; end violence against minority groups; and carry out dialogues with democratic movements there.

“The president sees it as a chance to present our points and advance our interests, and you’re not conceding anything,” the official said. “What’s more powerful that the president of the United States making these points to your face?”

While Obama aides are disappointed that his town hall in Shanghai did not get wider coverage in China’s state-controlled media, the official said that the president’s call for freedom of expression and association now will “spread out on the Internet.”


PRUDEN: Obama bows, the nation cringes at WshingtonTimes.com, Nov. 17, 2009
(• Wesley Pruden is editor emeritus of The Washington Times. )

So far it's a memorable trip. He established a new precedent for how American presidents should pay obeisance to kings, emperors, monarchs, sovereigns and assorted other authentic man-made masters of the universe. He stopped just this side of the full grovel to the emperor of Japan, risking a painful genuflection if his forehead had hit the floor with a nasty bump, which it almost did. No president before him so abused custom, traditions, protocol (and the country he represents). Several Internet sites published a rogue's gallery showing how other national leaders - the prime ministers of Israel, India, Slovenia, South Korea, Russia and Dick Cheney among them - have greeted Emperor Akihito with a friendly handshake and an ever-so-slight but respectful nod (and sometimes not even that).

Now we know why Mr. Obama stunned everyone with an earlier similar bow to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, only the bow to the Japanese emperor was far more flamboyant, a sign of a really deep sense of inferiority. He was only practicing his bow in Riyadh.


But Mr. Obama, unlike his predecessors, likely knows no better, and many of those around him, true children of the grungy '60s, are contemptuous of custom. Cutting America down to size is what attracts them to "hope" for "change." It's no fault of the president that he has no natural instinct or blood impulse for what the America of "the 57 states" is about. He was sired by a Kenyan father, born to a mother attracted to men of the Third World and reared by grandparents in Hawaii, a paradise far from the American mainstream.

He no doubt wants to "do the right thing" by his lights, but the lights that illumine the Obama path are not necessarily the lights that illuminate the way for most of the rest of us. This is good news only for Jimmy Carter, who may yet have to give up his distinction as our most ineffective and embarrassing president.

Further, this action by the Obama administration shows that it believes the real threat to life and liberty in America comes from Republicans, not Islamo-fascist terrorists.

This is going to be a "show trial" – not in the usual sense of the term, but a political trial all the same.

In this case, the terrorists are going to be given a high-profile media platform to spew their vile hatred of America. The prosecution doesn't really care about whether they are found guilty or innocent. What they really care about is using the trial to indict the previous administration, to ensure that our enemies learn every last detail about our interrogation techniques and, frankly, to guarantee that the next time they attack America, they won't make the same mistakes.

It's an amazing spectacle we're watching.

The Obama administration has been marked by a year of governing dangerously. But this may be its ultimate coup de grace.

and:

The Obama administration swears they won't be released in America.

Where then?

They won't say.

Because they can't say.

Because no other civilized country would have them.

Maybe they'll get to go back to Afghanistan, just in time for Obama's surrender there.

Maybe they will get to plot their next attack on America right back where it all began.

If it weren't so tragic, it would be hilariously funny.

But I have a feeling the families of those New York victims of the 9/11 attack fail to see any humor in this matter.

The Obama administration is more dangerous to America in many ways than any terrorist organization. What this cabal is doing to the country in stripping it of its most cherished values, its basic morality, its foundation on the rule of law, its liberties and its economy is more devastating than anything Mohammed and his zealots could have ever imagined.


Is Glenn Beck Paranoid, delusional or just a conman

"Glenn Beck - There is Evil at Play and Obama is Trying to Destroy Me" from DauntingIdeas Aug. 24,2009

Beck sounds more and more confused as each day goes by. He states that everything he says and does is not about ratings and then goes on to brag about how he beats Maddow and Olbermann combined. Beck knows damn well it's about ratings and he will see that soon with many companies pulling their advertising from Beck's show.

You have to love the fact Beck thinks there is evil at play. He is convinced that they are on to him and his only option is to destroy them. I assume the "they" and "them" is in reference to the Obama administration.
"What they don't understand is, I've got you. You may not save my life, but you will be responsible for saving the republic."



"Glenn Beck is becoming President Barack Hussein Obama….A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER!"at White Noise Insanity| November 25, 2009

Isn’t that great? Glenn Beck announced yesterday morning on his radio show (and posted a letter to his Mormon Militia on his website about it) that he is officially a community organizer and is damn proud of it. Yep, gone are the days of Beck saying things like, “Obama is an EVIL community organizer who roams the streets looking to brainwash the masses into believing his agenda and who uses organizations like ACORN to help him out!”. See? Glenn Beck wants us to believe he’s a DIFFERENT kind of community organizer and he doesn’t want you to remember all the right wing fringe rhetoric that community organizers are losers and a detriment to the sanctity of our nation. He wants to evily brainwash you with his 2 national microphones today, with his books, and he doesn’t want you to think of his 100 Year Plan as anything similar to Mein Kampf! Okay?

Dick Armey’s “Freedom Works” is Glenn Beck’s ACORN & Moveon.org all wrapped into one! And don’t you forget it.


and so it goes,
GORD.
