Obama's Revenge
Obama's Revenge
By Joan Swirsky
Once upon a time, a white teenager from Kansas got pregnant by her black Kenyan boyfriend, Barack Obama Sr., or was it her husband? Whatever. (I say whatever because we’ve never seen either marriage or divorce certificates.) Some say the couple was in Kenya visiting relatives when the birth of their son, Barack Obama Jr., occurred. No matter. (I say no matter because we’ve never seen an authentic birth certificate.) By the time the baby was two years old, his father abandoned him for his other wife and child in Kenya.
I wonder how toddler Barry felt when his father left him, and never reappeared until a single time when the boy was 10. Bewildered? Sad? Lonely? Angry? What do two-year-olds do with those feelings?
It didn’t take long for Barry’s mother to meet and marry an Indonesian native named Lolo Soetoro. They moved to Indonesia, where her child became Barry Soetoro, took on Indonesian citizenship, and was presumably schooled in public, Christian and Muslim schools. (I say presumably because we’ve never seen those school records.) But when Barry was 10 years old, his mother sent him back to the U.S. to be raised by her parents, Madelyn and Stanley Dunham, although she kept her baby daughter, Maya Soetoro, with her.
I wonder how the by-then fully sentient young Barry felt when his mother sent him packing. Sad? Jealous of the baby who remained behind with mommy? Confused and dizzy by the disparate cultures — languages, customs, foods, sights, sounds, schooling — he had experienced? Resentful? What did Barry do with those feelings?
By the time he was 10, the boy had been abandoned three times — by his father, stepfather and mother. And although he was raised by his white grandparents in Hawaii — where the “people of color” were not his color — he found out soon enough that his mixed-race background rendered him, in effect, an outsider. Did that make him feel self-conscious, indignant, victimized?
But he wasn’t altogether an outsider. In Hawaii, young Barry met Frank Marshall Davis, his first and perhaps most influential mentor. The infamous Davis, a Communist activist (and self-confessed pedophile) taught Barry — was it Obama, Soetero, Dunham? — that white people were the devil incarnate and that blacks were the most “victimized” people on earth.
Yet the abandoned and rejected child was lucky. His white-devil grandparents gave him a comfortable life in Hawaii and an education that apparently qualified him to attend several prestigious schools — Occidental College in California, Columbia University in New York City and Harvard Law School in Cambridge, Mass. (I say apparently qualified because we’ve never seen any of his college transcripts.)
Barry Morphs Into Barack
After his undergraduate days at Columbia, Mr. Obama chose not to go to graduate school, but instead held various jobs in the Big Apple and then moved to Chicago to become a community organizer. Although he had been exposed to American exceptionalism through his life in the United States and his privileged education, it is clear that his experiences in impoverished Kenya and totalitarian Indonesia, as well as his exposure to Mr. Davis and the other radicals he had met during his years in New York — among them the unrepentant domestic terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn of Weather Underground infamy — made the deepest and most lasting impressions.
Their messages of American imperialism and its white-devil culture clearly resonated in the thrice-abandoned boy. In his young-adult and adult years, free to choose his friends and pursuits, he opted exclusively for far-left socialists and Marxists, and activities aimed at relieving the suffering of people he perceived to be as victimized as apparently he felt he had been. He understood their feelings of helplessness, hopelessness and impotent rage, as well as the pain of fatherlessness. After all, his Harvard-educated father consciously chose to leave him. And his mother gave him away. Was that depressing to Barry? Infuriating?
When given the opportunity to join one of dozens of churches in Chicago, Barry — who had morphed into Barack — opted for the Trinity United Church of Christ, which was led by the fire-breathing Rev. Jeremiah Wright, whose decades-long anti-American and anti-Semitic rants apparently resonated in Obama’s rejected and abandoned heart and soul. (I say apparently resonated because in over 20 years of regular attendance, Mr. Obama said he heard nothing inflammatory or anti-American, and we’ve never seen the videotapes of any sermon, although each one was unfailingly recorded.)
“God damn America,” Rev. Wright raged. “The chickens have come home to roost,” he “preached” to his whooping and hollering congregation after 9/11. Mr. Obama heard nothing.
But it wasn’t only Rev. Wright whom Mr. Obama was attracted to in Chicago. He was also drawn to another hate-spewing radical, Rev. Louis Farrakhan, as well as to the raving Father Michael Phleger, the radical Islamist Khalid Rashidi, his friends and neighbors the Ayers, and to equally close friends “Tony” and Rita Rezko — Tony being the notorious “fixer” and now-convicted-and-imprisoned felon for fraud, bribery and money laundering. What did the seemingly mild-mannered Mr. Obama find so irresistible in these angry and/or crooked people and others like them? Was it the same thing that a shy man finds in his attraction to a flamboyant girlfriend — an alter-ego, a person who expresses what he really feels but is unable to give voice to?
In these relationships and in community organizing — which offers inner-city, mostly black residents job training, tutoring, and methods to organize tenants’ rights groups and voter-registration drives, etc ... — the 20-something Mr. Obama apparently found his calling, and also a renewed and burning ambition.
With Friends Like These
While his community-organizing job paid a paltry $12,000 or so per year, Mr. Obama somehow managed to pay his way through one of the priciest graduate schools in the world, Harvard Law School. (I say somehow managed because we have no record of his tuition payments). Even more amazing, he became the first black president of the Harvard Law Review without ever producing a written paper — or at least a paper that the public has ever read.
There is a good deal of evidence that Mr. Obama’s acceptance at Harvard Law — and his tuition — were facilitated by friends who had a vested interest in the community organizer. Among them was Percy Sutton, a former Manhattan borough president and ardent leftist, who was also Malcolm X’s lawyer. In an interview last year, the octogenarian Mr. Sutton stated: “I was introduced to [Obama] by a friend. The friend’s name was Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, and the introduction took place about 20 years ago.” Mr. Sutton described Dr. al-Mansour as “the principle adviser to one of the world’s richest men” and suggested that al-Mansour was raising money for Mr. Obama. Knowing that Mr. Sutton had friends at Harvard, Dr. al-Mansour asked him if he would write a letter to Harvard recommending Mr. Obama, which Mr. Sutton did most agreeably. This took place around 1988, when 27-year-old Mr. Obama was applying to Harvard Law.
Journalist Jack Cashill has credibly speculated that Mr. Obama’s two memoirs were actually written by his pal Bill Ayers, who was and is a University of Illinois at Chicago English professor, having escaped life in prison on a technicality. Two years [after he was admitted to law school], Mr. Cashill writes, “while still a law student, Mr. Obama improbably received an advance to write a memoir that would be called Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, which was published in 1995.” His second memoir, published in 2006, was The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream. (I suspect Mr. Cashill said “improbably received an advance” because, as stated earlier, Mr. Obama had not produced even one paper or distinguished himself in any way to have inspired a major publishing company to approach him.)
All this begs the question: Who writes two memoirs about himself before the age of 45? My own speculation is that it could be no one but a narcissist. As most people know in this age of pop psychology, the psychiatric disorder of narcissism derives from the Greek myth in which Narcissus, a handsome young man, became obsessed with himself and fell in love with his own image as he gazed into a pool of water. A lot of people have some degree of narcissism, which is characterized by grandiosity, an unquenchable need for admiration, unhealthy self-absorption, dependence on the affirmation of others and also a lack of empathy, which is hidden by both personal charm and the kind of earnest language that pretends to “feel your pain.”
Or he could be a malignant narcissist, which psychiatrist Dr. Otto Kernberg, a legendary leader in thought disorders, compares to a narcissist on steroids. This variety involves paranoid traits (think of Mr. Obama’s thin-skinned, quasi-hysterical reactions to Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin) and ego-syntonic aggression, which means the person is perfectly in-sync with people who have the courage he lacks to lash out.
But consider the source! Mr. Obama’s father was a self-aggrandizing narcissist who thought nothing of throwing his son away to fulfill his own ambitions and his mother also threw him away for the same reason. Talk about DNA, which Mr. Obama perfectly exhibited when, during his campaign, he unflinchingly dispensed with both his white grandmother and his black “mentor” Rev. Wright for his personal ambition.
Grooming The Perfect Marxist Candidate
This leads me to only one conclusion, which I wrote about in a former article: “Obama: The Trojan Horse.” My theory is that President Obama’s narcissistic charm, even temperament, skill with words (teleprompter included), hunger to please, radical agenda and subterranean rage at the “unfair” American system have been brilliantly exploited by powerful leftist radicals and Marxists in the United States, who for decades have plotted America’s path to socialism. He is their pawn, totally dispensable but handy while the “aura” lasts.
These “handlers” saw in Mr. Obama the ideal blank slate on which to actualize their agenda, and they made sure the slate remained blank by concealing (or destroying) any evidence of his past, including his birth certificate, Selective Service record, visa(s), school transcripts, and other vital documents. All of which is costing his moneyed backers — including America-loathing billionaire George Soros — multimillions in lawyers’ fees to fight the proliferating lawsuits that seek the truth about this stealth president.
In fact, former ambassador Alan Keyes, one of the many plaintiffs seeking proof of Mr. Obama’s American citizenship, has reported that Mr. Obama’s lawyers have now filed a motion “to quash our effort to obtain the relevant documents … [which] confirms Mr. Obama’s ruthless determination to destroy anyone who continues to seek the information the Constitution requires. Mr. Obama thus signals his intent to bring financial ruin on those who won’t accept his cover-up of the circumstances of his birth is a tactical escalation. It confirms the common sense suspicion that he won’t act forthrightly in this matter because he has something to hide.”
It is clear that Mr. Obama and his fellow radicals are restive. In the less-than four weeks of his presidency, the new president has taken volumes from the Marxian handbook, which dictates that the stupid masses be blitzed with an overload of information, hollow press conferences, appointments, dismantling of formerly effective national-security programs and so on in order to set the stage for a massive, Soviet-style takeover of our government, including a civilian national security force that Mr. Obama has said should be “just as powerful, strong and well-funded as the U.S. military.” Echoes of Nazi Germany in 1938, anyone?
According to writer Kyle-Anne Shrive, in Mr. Obama’s ascendance “we have yet to see a more perfect collision of Murphy’s Law with the Peter Principle. In only three weeks’ time, [he] has signaled to every terrorist on the planet that we are a sorry, groveling, ashamed nation ready to come to the diplomatic confessional. He is closing Gitmo within one year, has suspended trials there, and dismissed the charges against the U.S.S. Cole plotter. [He] has just put our money where his mouth is and is using $20.3 million to bring in Palestinian refugees from Gaza … [he] had the gall to pronounce the so-called economic stimulus bill absolutely free of ‘earmarks’ and ‘make-do work’… but according to the Congressional Budget Office [this bill] will do worse to our overall economy than no government action whatsoever.”
And Mr. Obama has done all this with the predictable double-speak that characterizes malevolent intention, i.e., touting transparency while concealing everything, speaking of integrity while appointing crooks and incompetents riddled with conflicts of interest, supporting energy independence while killing off-shore and domestic oil-drilling and nuclear power, and feigning optimism while he speaks of impending “catastrophe” in order to push through a pork-laden, trillion-dollar-plus stimulus plan that rewards the corrupt voter-fraud organization ACORN with billions and unions with discriminatory union-only labor agreements, paves the way for socialized medicine, and threatens to take away the most cherished rights of We The People.
As blogger Eric Gurr has said: “We still talk about the health- care crisis, the environmental crisis, the oil crisis, the banking crisis. Let me tell you my friends you are about to learn the meaning of the only crisis that matters, the survival crisis.”
You can be sure that the sad-lonely-angry two-year-old, the jealous-confused-resentful 10-year-old, the self-conscious- cheated-victimized adolescent, and the man who found solace in and identified with his hate-America mentors is now determined to redeem all of his demons.
Unfortunately, he is acting out his rage on free-market capitalism, a free press, property and gun rights, a limited constitutional government, protection of the unborn and everything else that is good and great about our country.
This is Mr. Obama’s revenge!

Wild Thing's comment..............
This article is the best compilation of the dysfunctional make-up of Barack Hussein Obama. whose emotional instability will cause the greatest detrimental changes to our country, as did the emotional instability of leaders like Hitler, Sadaam, Nero, Mao, Stalin, etc.
"And Obama has done all this with the predictable double-speak that characterizes malevolent intention, i.e., touting transparency while concealing everything, speaking of integrity while appointing crooks and incompetents riddled with conflicts-of-interest, supporting energy independence while killing off-shore and domestic oil-drilling and nuclear power, and feigning optimism while he speaks of impending “catastrophe” in order to push through a pork-laden, trillion-dollar-plus Stimulus plan that rewards the corrupt voter-fraud organization Acorn with billions and unions with discriminatory union-only labor agreements, paves the way for socialized medicine, and threatens to take away the most cherished rights of We The People. "
A great summation!
Obama's illegal regime purporting to be our “federal government” is in fact illegitimate, invalid, and without ANY true Constitutional authority, we will continue to watch our Republic being lowered into the grave, and the leftists and Commies all have their shovels ready to cover it up with dirt into a nice big rounded pile.
God Save America!

This is the age of gangsterism, and it's spread to the White House.

Talk about the last person on earth that should be president, The American people have chosen that person. Well enough to give this pathological liar the win for the election. We not only, don't know who this guy, is we know nothing absolutely nothing. If he is this dysfunctional then I would not be surprised if all of our rights and elections could be suspended at anytime he deems necessary. This is going to be the worst crisis this nation has ever faced.
We are in serious trouble.

Look, I'm sorry he had such a bad childhood, but so did a lot of other kids and they grew up just fine. He wants attention so badly he's willing to do anything to get it, including destruction of the land that made him President. He is a sociopath. He reminds me of the Grinch who stole Christmas only this time the Grinch didn't wake up and little Cindy Lou fell to her death from the mountain and everything smashed on the rocks below.
He HAS to open his eyes and see for real what life is REALLY like out here in the wilderness of America. He needs to learn to care, as the Whoville residents did, even though the Christmas was stolen from them, so his heart grows three sizes bigger!
And it's time for his so-called people to look at the others who aren't and realize we're all the same underneath the skin level. God loves wondrous variety, but he also wants us to love each other.

The records of every past President have been scrutinized but nobody has ever seen Obama's. Why don't people see that as strange? Like I wrote before, why haven't any of the administrative clerks who process these records come forward? All over the world there are some "little" people who have seen the records. I wonder where they are?

Joan Swirsky has many good articles on the Libs. Do a search - she's been writing for years. She has them nailed!
Poor widdle Obama or Barry or whatever...life is HARD! And NOT fair!!
Grow up! Or get out of the way and let an adult do the job.

Bear Nation, what you are seeing is a socialistic REPARATION$ move to dumb down the middle classes and upper middle classes by giving your tax money to lower classes so their VOTES can re-elect their Dummycrat candidates in the future. Basically, BRO BHO has bought off the lower class with your tax dollars! The conservative Republicans and Southern Blue Dog Democrats realize this and bye bye GOPhers! This is the END of the GOP... Grin and BEAR it? Have a nice day...

Everything about the bastard is illegitimate, from his birth through the senate to the presidency. As Darth succinctly states it's all about socialist reparations.
This passage aptly defines Barak:
Megalomania is an unrealistic belief in one's superiority, grandiose abilities, and even omnipotence. It is characterized by a need for total power and control over others, and is marked by a lack of empathy for anything that is perceived as not feeding the self.```Although megalomania is a term often ascribed to anyone who is power-hungry, the clinical definition is that of a mental illness associated with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD).
As for those GOP lackey's of the Democrats (McCain included) still clinging to their jobs in Congress, you are the reason for Obama, enjoy your servitude, even a whore on heroin has more morals than you.

This guy has the traits of a psychopathic dictator. he is self worshipping, glib, smooth, promising, ruthless, etc.
He could not have made to where he has alone. He has handlers, trainers, financial backers, a lying, bias, cheerleading media, a leftist dominated Congress and a weak cowardly opposition.
I don't know how much damage Obama will do to the American Republic, or how permanent this damage will be. I can only hope that many of the sheep in his cult will begin to realize how anti-American and anti-freedom this guy is and wake up and change their blind support for him.

Like it or not, I believe our best defense rests with the RNC. There are so many other groups that have sprang up over the past year, it's hard to sort them all out. With a new chairman to give it CPR, the RNC may pull it together. We all need to put our efforts into one collective body.
BHO and Co. give the middle class a token tax break for stump speech purposes then tax the big businesses. They pass these increased cost to you and I, therefore we get hammered in the end.

Rhod your right it sure is and to have it in our White House makes me sick and angry at the same time.
Posted by: Wild Thing at February 21, 2009 05:29 PM
Mark, I agree so much.
All I can hope for really is that the very few in our party in Washington that have been speaking out even a little will get more intense and others will join them and fight back for America.They have got to know there is no longer a time for being weak any longer. Only the strong will take our country back.

Lynn, I am not as nice as you, I don't care that he had a bad childhood LOL just kidding, I could not resist. hahahha
Good one Lynn about "The Grinch who stole Christmas" comparison.
Posted by: Wild Thing at February 21, 2009 05:47 PM
BobF., you are so right, it is the weirdest thing. I hope one day one, even just one of them will speak up and say something. Heck I don't even care if they write a book about it and make money from it as long as it is the truth that they lived through to keep all this quiet and hushed up.
Something really stinks with all he has hidden.
Posted by: Wild Thing at February 21, 2009 05:56 PM
Yankeemom, thank you so much, I had only read one other article Joan Swirsky had written awhile back, she is new to me as a writter. I really like what she has written.
Posted by: Wild Thing at February 21, 2009 06:00 PM
Darth, well said!
I know what you mean. I agree, there has got to be a renewing of strength and purpose from the tiny handful of conservatives that are in office. Can they stand it? Can they stand strong and not budge when the media mocks them and others attack them? That is the worry too. If they could, they would lead the way and make history taking back our country.
They have got to do this there is no choice, no easy way, or we can kiss America goodbye.
Posted by: Wild Thing at February 21, 2009 06:09 PM
Jack, I am so furious with the rino's, McCain and all of them. I am ticked at when we have voted we then have to email, fax and phone these creeps to make them do what is right, what is good for America. Sick of it. They know how we feel and did not care. McCain should never be elected again, or any the other ones. We have one here too, Charlile Crist our I want to do a post about him one day and his kissing up to McCain and now Obama. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Posted by: Wild Thing at February 21, 2009 06:13 PM
Tom, I agree he is all of that.
I worry about how permanent all he is doing and will do will be. What scares me too is so many things Bill Clinton did have never been changed back to how it was before Clinton. If that happens with Obama or if we never win the Houses or presidency again..... whew just thinking about it is horrible.
Posted by: Wild Thing at February 21, 2009 06:21 PM
jim warren, I agree, it has to be, that is the only way we can gain the majority again.
But we have to really play hardball this time and no rinos, and the RNC has to know imo we mean business. Not sure how to do this,but they have got to know there is anger out here not just a little disappointment, it is huge how most of us feel and we are fed up.
Rinos don't help our party at all. Too often they vote with the dems, so just to have an R with their name for a body count on our side is no help at all.
