Thomas Sowell on Obama "Dismantling America"

On Townhall.com ...


Just one year ago, would you have believed that an unelected government official, not even a Cabinet member confirmed by the Senate but simply one of the many "czars" appointed by the President, could arbitrarily cut the pay of executives in private businesses by 50 percent or 90 percent?

Did you think that another "czar" would be talking about restricting talk radio? That there would be plans afloat to subsidize newspapers-- that is, to create a situation where some newspapers' survival would depend on the government liking what they publish?

Did you imagine that anyone would even be talking about having a panel of so-called "experts" deciding who could and could not get life-saving medical treatments?

Scary as that is from a medical standpoint, it is also chilling from the standpoint of freedom. If you have a mother who needs a heart operation or a child with some dire medical condition, how free would you feel to speak out against an administration that has the power to make life and death decisions about your loved ones?

Does any of this sound like America? ...


On Obama's personnel choices ...

Barack Obama has not only said that he is out to "change the United States of America," the people he has been associated with for years have expressed in words and deeds their hostility to the values, the principles and the people of this country.

Jeremiah Wright said it with words: "God damn America!" Bill Ayers said it with bombs that he planted. Community activist goons have said it with their contempt for the rights of other people.

Among the people appointed as czars by President Obama have been people who have praised enemy dictators like Mao, who have seen the public schools as places to promote sexual practices contrary to the values of most Americans, to a captive audience of children.

Those who say that the Obama administration should have investigated those people more thoroughly before appointing them are missing the point completely. Why should we assume that Barack Obama didn't know what such people were like, when he has been associating with precisely these kinds of people for decades before he reached the White House?

Nothing is more consistent with his lifelong patterns than putting such people in government-- people who reject American values, resent Americans in general and successful Americans in particular, as well as resenting America's influence in the world.



In a country in which 40% of us self-identify as "conservative" while only 20% identify as "liberal" a radical like Obama, who touts his "blackness" is a catastrophe for our black brethren, unless they cast him loose.

Once again, Dr. Sowell says it perfectly.

We need to face the fact that we did not reach this sorry point in our country's history by accident, it was by design.

An ex-KGB agent, Yuri Bezmenov, gave a series of lectures back in the early 1980's explaining (warning us) exactly how Communist elements infiltrated America and changed/transformed her from within. At that time, he said their plan had already worked beyond their wildest dreams... ahhh, if only he lived to see Comrade Obama and his Mao-loving lackeys such as Van Jones and Anita Dunn in the White House.

As Mr. Bezmenov explains, it has nothing to do with conspiracy or spies or any exotic Hollywood-type plots... it is completely OVERT... for example, in-your-face community organizers (ACORN/SEIU/Obama) and radical liberal teachers and college professors (Obama/Ayers) and anti-capitalist eco-terrorists (Van Jones, Anita Dunn/Obama/Ayers). All out in the open, right there in front of our eyes.

A chill will go down your spine when you hear him describe (back then) our current day America and realize just what a horrible mess we have gotten ourselves into.

Watch this short video. Forward to 1:17 if you are truly pressed for time.

IT IS WORTH YOUR TIME!!
