Despite the media’s reluctance to expose any criticism of Obama, an interview surfaced this week with the Democrat candidate, in which his contempt for America is laid bare.  It’s far more important what Obama says in unguarded moments than what he says in campaign speeches and ads. 

In a 2001 interview on WBEZ, Chicago public radio, Obama said that the courts have not been effective instruments in redistributing wealth.  The wealth he speaks of is your wealth, no his own.  And his plans for the wealth of others is not limited to taxpayers earning over $250,000.  His plans include all wealth.  He goes on talking about “economic justice” which is codespeak for the socialist form of wealth redistribution.  To Obama, the fact that you can work hard and long to build wealth while others who refuse to are left poor, is patently unfair.  Leftists often speak of economic justice and environmental justice.  The truth is that justice needs no such descriptor.  Free capitalism provides justice--no government intervention is required.

Obama goes on to describe what he calls a “flawed charter,” the Constitution of the United States of America.  He claims that the Constitution is faulty because it provides what he describes as “negative rights” which are those things that the government cannot do to you.  He laments that the Constitution does not articulate what the government can do for you, (or to you.)  He laments that the Constitution gets in the way of redistribution with all of those limits on government that are difficult to overcome.  If Obama is elected, prepare for that to change.  It will be done by activist judges from the US Supreme Court down, who legislate from the bench, because the Democrat party and Obama do not trust the people to “do the right thing.” 

Barack Obama is nothing short of a socialist, and for those who do not realize how dangerous socialism can be, Nazi Germany was a socialist state, and provided the circumstances that lead to Adolph Hitler’s rise to power.  Obama’s policies will cripple the economy, forfeit America’s sovereignty to the United Nations, and put America’s national security at risk.  He opposes offshore drilling, favoring tire inflation and undeveloped and uninvented alternatives energy sources.   His own running mate, Delaware Senator Joe Biden, promised last week, that within the first six months of an Obama administration, America will be tested.  The test will be an international crisis, and he asked his audience to stand firm because, “at first it will not be clear that we are doing the right thing.” 

This week, Barack Obama’s campaign has released some new television ads.  In one, a voice continues to join McCain to President Bush, something that, for McCain, should be an honor.   Obama opposed the surge, and still refuses to admit that it was a categorical success.  Obama sought defeat.  Obama opposes drilling off the continental shelf, favoring tire inflation and undeveloped and uninvented alternatives.

An Obama presidency would be a foreign-policy disaster.  He was wrong about the surge in Iraq, and accused our military personnel of “bombing villages, and killing women and children.“  He is supported by dictators, Moammar Kadafi, Hugo Chavez, Kim-jong Il, the Castros, and Iran’s president, Ahmadinijad.  Despite what the mainstream media reports, Obama’s tax plan will cost Americans from the middle-class and upward, more than the economy can afford.  Jobs will be lost, and the economy will decline.  All honest analysts agree.  He will use tax policy to punish success and reward those who he and Democrats in Congress favor.

Hubris does not begin to describe Obama’s view of the Constitution.  He says that he will support the 2nd Amendment, but in Illinois, he pushed legislation to ban guns and convict citizens who use their guns to defend themselves and their families.  Obama supports “partial birth abortion,” which is nothing short of murder.  He even opposed a law which would have required doctors to provide a minimum of “comfort care” to babies who survived a botched abortion.  It’s not unexpected since we heard him say publicly, that if one of his daughters “makes a mistake and gets pregnant, I don’t want her punished with a baby.”  To Obama, an unwanted pregnancy is punishment, but stealing the hard-earned income from middle-class taxpayers is not. 

Democrat leaders, Pelosi and Reid, expect to pick-up seats in the House and Senate.  These are the same Democrats who, during the past two years, have tried to secure America’s defeat in Iraq, who have prevented drilling for our own oil, and who caused the mortgage industry’s collapse. 
 
Obama has made it clear that he will say and do anything to get elected.   What’s at stake is nothing less than your freedom.  Obama will seize or control your income, and seize or regulate your rights.  He hates America and despises its Constitution.  How can anyone who hates the country be trusted to lead the country?  He cannot.  Obama’s ideas are wrong, and his policy plans are dangerous.
