On a day intended to celebrate the ideals and unifying rhetoric of one of modern America’s most significant socio-political figures, President Barack Obama instead voiced a message of partisan politics – once again laying claim as being among this nation’s most divisive of presidents.
Speaking before the towering Washington D.C. memorial to Martin Luther King Jr, President Obama gave yet another supportive gesture to the Occupy Wall Street hordes – a group who in the past few days has seen well over a hundred arrests for trespassing, resisting arrest, and numerous and increasingly violent altercations with law enforcement that most recently led to the hospitalization of two New York police officers. This is the group Barack Obama suggested mirrored the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. during his dedication speech this past Sunday:
“If he were alive today, I believe he would remind us that the unemployed worker can rightly challenge the excesses of Wall Street without demonizing all who work there.”
Do those words truly reflect what Barack Obama believes these people to be doing? Challenging excess without demonizing all who work there? This from the president who has overseen three years of the most excessive deficit spending in the history of the United States? Who has played nearly a hundred of rounds of golf in less than three years as president? Who takes Air Force One to the millionaire’s beachfront hangout of Martha’s Vineyard while the First Lady then takes another seperate personal jet at taxpayer’s expense just a few hours later. Let us not forget the millions of dollars spent on Obama vacations and trips abroad too numerous to now recount.
Was it not Barack Obama who, according to news reports in the spring of 2010, said that racism was likely an integral part of the Tea Party movement? And did Obama not recently hang a painting with the word “Nigger” scrawled across it just outside the Oval Office? Did he not tell Republicans to “sit in the back of the bus” and “get out of the way” during the Obamacare debates not so long ago? Then there is the same Barack Obama who it was recently discovered attempted to apologize to Japan for America’s use of nuclear weapons during WWII – a request that even the Japanese found absurd via a prompt refusal to have President Obama do so. What must the veterans of that war – particularly those who served in the brutal and bloody Pacific conflict, think of the current Commander in Chief’s desire to apologize to Japan for America’s victory?
Look at the images of these individuals who Barack Obama so shamefully and incorrectly likens to the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr: (WARNING: ADULT CONTENT)
The images above represent the people who Barack Obama, as President of the United States during a ceremony honoring the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., gave his support and sympathy to.
Let that one sink in folks…
Again, I have to refer to him as “Count Barackula”. This guy will reap the whirlwind he has sown. I pray that this fraud is removed from our presence in an orderly fashion. That the people intrusted to protect are themselves protected. It is going to be a bitter and cold winter but, 2012 approaches and a new light will shine again.
This person in the white house, and his associates, are more out of control than those crowds he is so strongly encouraging.
The “jump” poster is very very offensive–especially in view of 9/11
I’ve heard him referred to as “Caligula.” First two years, spend, spend, spend. Then paranoia and utter madness.
I agree. He is insane.
It’s going to get much worse and it’s just incredible that this Congress has done nothing about him for the past 2 1/2 years. I hold them all responsible as well.
It’s a real heartache.
His quote is definitely trying to have his cake and eat it, too. He is saying it’s okay to protest the actions of Wall Street, but not the people (i.e. DONORS) who work there and perform the actions of the Street.
Nothing like trying to have it both ways, Barack.
It is a testament to the cowardice of Wall Street that these demonstrators don’t have office furniture raining down on them.
White House version of OWS: Occupy White House. OWH
2 years and running…
How one of the greatest pawns to Wall Street in history can align himself with the downtrodden is simply amazing theater in itself. What a farce and yet it works perfectly. Yet how sad that among the demonstrators there are so many well intentioned and developing youth who continue to see Obama as part of the solution and not the problem. There lies the tragedy…
Obama is a sociopath. No one gets it. He has no loyalty. This man is Nero, Caligula, and Napoleon reborn in one man.
