God help us...
The Architect of Destruction
By Maureen Scott
Barack Obama appears to
be a tormented man filled with resentment, anger,
and disdain for anyone of an opinion or view other than his.
He acts in the most hateful, spiteful, malevolent, vindictive ways
in order to manipulate and maintain power and control over others.
Perhaps, because, as a child, he grew up harboring an abiding
bitterness toward the U.S. that was instilled in him by his family and
mentors...it seems to have never left him.
It is not the color of his skin that is a problem in America. Rather it is the
blackness that fills his soul and the hollowness in his heart where
there should be abiding pride and love for this country.
Think: Have we ever heard Obama speak lovingly of the U.S.
Or its people, with deep appreciation and
genuine respect for our history, our customs, our
sufferings and our blessings? Has he ever revealed that, like most
patriotic Americans, he gets "goose bumps" when a band plays
"The Star Spangled Banner," (no he gets goose bumps when he hears the ''Muslim
call to prayer" (his words) or sheds a tear when he hears a beautiful rendition
of " America the Beautiful?" Does his heart burst with pride
when millions of American flags wave on a National holiday - or someone plays
"taps" on a trumpet? Has he ever shared the admiration of the military,
as we as lovers of those who keep us free, feel when soldiers march by?
It is doubtful because Obama did not grow up sharing our
experiences or our values. He did not sit at the knee of a Grandfather or Uncle
who showed us his medals and told us about the bravery of his fellow
troops as they tramped through foreign lands to keep us free. He
didn't have grandparents who told stories of suffering and then
coming to America, penniless, and the opportunities they had for
building a business and life for their children.
Away from this country as a young child, Obama didn't delight in being part of
America and its greatness. He wasn't singing our patriotic songs in
kindergarten, or standing on the roadside for a holiday parade and eating a hot
dog, or lighting sparklers around a campfire on July 4th as fireworks
exploded over head, or placing flags on the grave sites of fallen and
beloved American heroes.
Rather he was separated from all of these experiences and doesn't really
understand us and what it means to be an American. He is void of the basic emotions
that most feel reegarding this country and insensitive to the instinctive pride we have
in our national heritage. His opinions were formed by those who either
envied us or wanted him to devalue the United States and the traditions
and patriotism that unites us.
He has never given a speech that is filled with calm, reassuring, complimentary,
heartfelt statements about all the people in the U.S. Or one that
inspires us to be better and grateful and proud that in a short time our
country became a leader, and a protector of many. Quite the contrary,
his speeches always degenerate into mocking, ridiculing tirades as he
faults our achievements as well as any critics or opposition
for the sake of a laugh, or to bolster his ego. He uses his Office to
threaten and create fear while demeaning and degrading any American who
opposes his policies and actions. A secure leader, who has noble
self-esteem and not false confidence, refrains from showing such dread of
critics and displaying a cocky, haughty attitude.
Mostly, his time seems to be spent causing dissension, unrest, and anxiety among the
people of America, rather than uniting us (even though he was presented
to us as the "Great Uniter"). He creates chaos for the sake of
keeping people separated, envious, aggrieved and ready to argue. Under his
leadership Americans have been kept on edge, rather than in a state of comfort and
security. He incites people to be aggressive toward, and disrespectful
of, those of differing opinions. And through such behavior, Obama has
lowered the standards for self-control and mature restraint to
the level of street-fighting gangs, when he should be raising the bar
for people to strive toward becoming more considerate, tolerant,
self-disciplined, self-sustaining, and self-assured.
Not a day goes by that he is not attempting to defy our laws,
remove our rights, over-ride established procedures, install
controversial appointees, enact divisive mandates, and assert a dictatorial
form of government.
Never has there been a leader of this great
land who used such tactics to harm and hurt the people and this country.
Never have we had a President who spoke with a caustic, evil tongue
against the citizenry rather than present himself as a soothing,
calming and trustworthy force.
Never, in this country, have we experienced how much stress one man
can cause a nation of people - on a daily basis!
Obama has promoted the degeneration of peace, civility, and quality of
cooperation between us. He thrives on tearing us down, rather than building
us up. He is the Architect of the decline of America, and the epitome
of a Demagogue.
