is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is NOT trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and growth. Quite the opposite in fact.
In September 2008, " American Thinker" published James Simpson's article "Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis." It connected then-presidential candidate Barack Obama to individuals and organizations practicing a malevolent strategy for destroying our economy and our system of government. The methodology is known as "The Cloward-Piven Strategy". The strategy is summarized as follows: "The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The 'Cloward-Piven Strategy' seeks to hasten the fall of Capitalism by overloading the government with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse".
Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven were two lifelong members of the Democratic Socialists of America who taught sociology at Columbia University. In a May 1966 "Nation" magazine article titled "The Weight of The Poor", they outlined their strategy, proposing to use grassroots radical organizations to push ever more strident demands for public services at all levels of government. The result, they predicted, would be a "profound financial and political crisis" that would unleash "powerful forces - - - for major economic reform at the national level". Cloward and Piven were inspired by radical organizer (and Hillary Clinton's mentor) Saul Alinsky.
In the '60s Cloward-Piven first targeted the welfare system. They enlisted radical black activist George Wiley, who created the National Welfare Reform Organization (NWRO) to implement the strategy. Wiley hired militant foot soldiers to storm welfare offices around the country, violently demanding their "rights". Welfare rolls increased from 4.3M to 10.8M by the '70s. In New York City alone, welfare caseloads climbed from 12% a year in the early '60s, to 50% a decade later (from 150,000 to over 1.5M). Cloward-Piven tactics sent the City of New York into bankruptcy in 1975. Mayor Rudy Guiliani cited Cloward-Piven by name as being responsible for "an effort at economic sabatoge".
Cloward-Piven crated ACORN, and many other radical organizations. The crowning achievement for ACORN was "The Motor Voter" act, signed into law in 1993. ACORN was one of the chief drivers of high-risk mortgage lending which led to the financial crisis. ACORN also created vast vulnerabilities in our electoral system, which ACORN then exploited. The Motor Voter law has also been used to open another vulnerability in the system; the registration of vast numbers of illegal aliens, who then reliably vote Democrat.
The Presicent and this Congress simply do not have our interests at heart. They are implementing the Cloward-Pivan strategy on an unprecedented scale by flooding America with a tidal wave of poisonous initiatives, orders, regulations and laws. As Rahm Emanuel said, "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste."
In addition to overwhelming the government with demands for services, Obama and the Democrats are overwhelming political opposition to their plans with a flood of apocalyptic legislation. Their ultimate goal is to leave us so discouraged, demoralized and exhausted that we throw our hands up in defeat. As Barney Frank said, "The middle class will be too distracted to fight."
These people ARE our enemies. They don't use guns, not yet, but they are just as dangerous, determined and deceitful as the Communists we faced in The Cold War, Korea and Vietnam. Just as dangerous and covert as the Nazis we faced in WWII. It is time we fully internalized and digested this fact, with all it's ugly ramifications. These people have violated countless laws and could be criminally prosecuted, had we the political power. Their policies are unconstitutional, and deliberately so. The goal is to make The Constitution irrelevent.
Their spending is off the charts and will drive America into hyper-inflation, but it could be rescinded, had we the political power.
These policies are toxic, but they could be stopped and reversed, had we the political power.
Their ideologies are poisonous, but they could be exposed for what they are, with long jail sentences as an object lesson, had we the political power.
Barack Obama is a total enigma. He won the 2008 Presidential election claiming to be a moderate and wanting to bring Americans together and govern from the center. But since he took office, his actions have been far from moderate. He has apologized to foreigh dictators abroad for "sins" he alleges America has committed. He has appointed a self proclaimed Communist (Van Jones) and an admirer of Mao Zedong to top administration posts. He has used the economic crisis to take over entire industries and is attempting to nationalize the health care system via "ObamaCare". In his first year in office he already made his Presidency the most polarizing in the nation's history.
The real goal of "health care" legislation, the real goal of "cap and trade" and the real goal of "economic stimulus" is to rip the guts out of our private economy and transfer wide swaths of it over to the government to control. Do not be deluded by the propaganda coming out of the White House. These initiates are vehicles for change. They are not goals in and of themselves except in their ability to deliver power. They WILL make matters MUCH worse, AND THAT IS BY DESIGN.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that President Obama's proposed budget will add more than $9.7T (TRILLIONS) to the national deby over the next decade. CBO says "Soaring deficits will force the Treasury to borrow at prodigious rates, sending the national debt soaring to an insane $22-24T by 2020". Most prudent Americans would think these numbers trouble the Democratic leadership and President Obama. THEY WOULD BE WRONG! ! ! They would be wrong not because the Democratic party or the President are economically illiterate or bad individuals, but because the Democratic party and the President are leftists.
Most Americans, including most Democrats, do not understand the left. They may understand liberalism, but President Obama, Senator Reid, Speaker Pelosi and most Democratic Congressmen are not liberals, they are leftists, and most American people do not understand the difference between "liberal" and "left". They do not realize there is NO major differnece between the American Democratic Party and the leftist social democratic parties of Western Europe. From Karl Marx to Obama, the left ( as opposed to liberals) has never created wealth because it has NO interest in creating wealth. It is only interested in REDISTRIBUTION of wealth.
Unprecedented and unsustainable debt does not particularly disturb the left. They want a huge government overseeing a giant welfare state and a country with FAR fewer wealthy Americans.
The left mocks the three-bedroom home surrounded by a picket fence and a vehicle in the garage becasue they feel everybody should be traveling on public busses and trains, or riding a bicycle.
The left has a VERY different vision of America than those who believe in the founding values of America, most especially individualism and small government, and if the price of getting to a giant welfare state dominated by the left is America's steep financial decline, the left feels that is a price fully worth paying.
It took 213 years (1789 - 2002) for the USA to accrue $6T in national debt. It took only 7 years (2002-2009) to double the national debt to $12T. The national debt is slated to DOUBLE again in 10 years. This debt does NOT include $106.8T in unfunded liabilities mandated from Washington (Medicare/Medicaid, Social Security). THIS DEBT IS UNSUSTAINABLE.
