Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 35: “The Second Most Powerful Person in the Free World”

“For the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country…” Michelle Obama, February 18, 2008

Thoughts of Obama from Bama has intentionally, up till this point, refrained from commenting about our 44th President’s bride of 17 years and our Diva of a First Lady, Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama. With a complete makeover by White House handlers promoting a public image of the devoted wife; super mom; Victory gardener; keeper of domestic tranquility; and official White House Hostess we figured as long as she was willing to perpetrate this farce we’d keep quiet and focus our attention on our Husband-in-Chief.

Now that she has publically stepped out on the Socialized Medicine scam making a major policy speech to the leadership of several Woman’s groups at the White House last week, advocating the same Marxist propaganda her hubby has been peddling, we reckoned it’s high time we chatted a spell about the Country’s second most powerful person.

Another Ivey League educated lawyer, just like spouse Barack, Mrs. Obama is the President’s most trusted and likeminded advisor. Well schooled in the corrupt Chicago Democrat Political Machine she is an expert at heavy handed, pay for play, smash mouth political tactics. Also like our Honey Bunch-in-Chief she is a devout “Hate/Blame America First” Jeremiah Wright disciple and Bill “Domestic Terrorist” Ayers political soul mate.

After graduating from Harvard Law Mrs. Obama landed a lucrative position with a prestigious Chicago law firm. As destiny would have it, this is where she met the future father of her children and our future President, Barack Husain Obama. After several years with the firm, a courtship and marriage, both were inspired and compelled to pursue a “Higher Calling”.

Heeding this call they left their high paying legal positions and started new careers as public servants (where the real money is). Young Barack took off to work as a Community Organizer with the criminal thugs at ACORN and Michelle got her MBA in political corruption as a staffer for Chicago’s infamous Mayor Daley.

Quick studies and ambitious both Barack and Michelle were soon rising stars and knee deep in the corruption of Chicago politics. Barack was tagged for the Illinois State and a few years later the US Senate (where the truly big bucks can be had).

A new mother, Michelle still heeded the noble calling of public service and took a position with the University of Chicago Medical Center as Vice President of Community Affairs for the meager salary of $130,000. Certainly a big sacrifice and a lot less than she could make practicing law, but the folks come first and the compulsion to serve a greater good superseded any petty personal financial concerns. Anyway, $130,000 ain’t bad for a 20 hour a week part time position. Thoughts of Obama from Bama hopes the stress, strain and great financial sacrifice wasn’t too overwhelming for the budding young champion of the little people.

A hardworking, dedicated, empathetic and compassionate Vice President of Community Affairs Michelle was soon recognized for her efforts with a $195,000 raise. The fact the new $317,000 salary directly coincided with Barack’s accession to the US Senate and millions for the Hospital in Federal earmarks was defended by the University and the Obama’s as an extraordinary coincidence and certainly not any Quid Pro Quo. Interesting they failed to mention Mrs. Obama’s position was still a 20 hour a week part time job.

According to the Chicago Sun Times another contraversy erupted at the hospital when news of a new program Mrs. Obama created that steered patients without private insurance, mainly poor black folk, to other healthcare facilities. This policy blew up in the Hospital and Michelle’s face when a young boy covered by Medicaid was turned away after emergency treatment after a pit bull tore off his upper lip.

The hospital gave the boy a tetanus shot, antibiotics, and two aspirin and sent him on his merry way. The boy was forced to take an agonizing hour-long bus ride to another hospital for surgery. Interesting Mrs. Obama didn’t mention her role in this episode during her little Healthcare propaganda speech to all the nice ladies at the White House last week.

“In my own life, in my own small way, I have tried to give back to this country that has given me so much,” she said. “See, that’s why I left a job at a big law firm for a career in public service,” Michelle Obama.

With her “promotion” to one of the most lucrative and high profile public service jobs ever created, First Lady of the good ole USA, Mrs. Obama hasn’t wasted anytime building her power base and sphere of influence. For example, White House records indicate the First Lady has assembled a personal staff currently totaling 28+ positions. Following is a list of the support staff Mrs. Obama will have us believe she just can’t get by without:

· $172,2000 - Sher, Susan (Chief Of Staff)
· $ 170,000- Moore, Michael (Chief Yes Man and Head Doughnut Taster)
· $140,000 - Frye, Jocelyn C. (Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy And Projects For The First Lady)
· $113,000 - Rogers, Desiree G. (Special Assistant to the President and White House Social Secretary)
· $102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (Special Assistant to the President and Director of Communications for the First Lady)
· $102,000 - Winter, Melissa E. (Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
· $100,000- O’Donnell, Rosie (Chief Brown Noser and Head Pastry Taster)
· $90,000 - Medina, David S. (Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
· $84,000 - Lelyveld, Catherine M. (Director and Press Secretary to the First Lady)
· $75,000 - Starkey, Frances M. (Director of Scheduling and Advance for the First Lady)
· $70,000 - Sanders, Trooper (Deputy Director of Policy and Projects for the First Lady)
· $65,000 - Burnough, Erinn J. (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)
· $65,000 - Reinstein, Joseph B. (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary) · $62,000 - Goodman, Jennifer R. (Deputy Director of Scheduling and Events Coordinator For The First Lady)
· $60,000 - Fitts, Alan O. (Deputy Director of Advance and Trip Director for the First Lady)
· $60,000 - Lewis, Dana M. (Special Assistant and Personal Aide to the First Lady)
· $52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (Associate Director and Deputy Press Secretary To The First Lady)
· $50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E. (Special Assistant for Scheduling and Traveling Aide To The First Lady)
· $45,000 - Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (Associate Director of Correspondence For The First Lady)
· $45,000 - Tubman, Samantha (Deputy Associate Director, Social Office)
· $40,000 - Boswell, Joseph J. (Executive Assistant to the Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
· $36,000 - Armbruster, Sally M. (Staff Assistant to the Social Secretary)
· $36,000 - Bookey, Natalie (Staff Assistant)
· $36,000 - Jackson, Deilia A. (Deputy Associate Director of Correspondence for the First Lady)
· $35,000- Mathews, Chris, MSNBC (Chief Ass Kisser, Pucker Up Butter Cup!)

Including overhead and benefits our First Lady-in-Chief’s staff is costing the treasury over $5.5 million a year. At least twice as many government lackeys at twice the cost compared with her two most recent predecessors, Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton. This is an unadulterated abuse of power, unbridled arrogance and a complete waste of taxpayer dollars.

“USA, USA, USA”

A familiar national cheer frequently heard at international sporting events and domestic conservative political rallies and words that have probably never rolled off the tongue of our Public Servant-in-Chief First Lady. Not being proud of her country until the ripe old age of 45 and her husband’s Presidential campaign omits 100’s of significant historical events that raised goose bumps and brought tears to tens of millions patriotic Americans. Her lack of pride in some of our Nation’s most defining moments that occurred during her adult life is truly troubling.

A few of these memorable moments included:

· The Miracle - An unheralded USA Hockey team closes tournament by beating the Soviets 4–3 and Finland 4–2 to win the Olympic gold medal.
· US hostages released by Iran
· Explosion of the Challenger shuttle and the outpouring of prayers and support
· First woman appointed to Supreme Court
· Dissolution of the Soviet Union
· Tearing down the Berlin Wall
· US wins Cold War
· 9/11 – a national tragedy and catalyst for uniting the country in the preservation of liberty and in opposition to Islamic terrorist

Mrs. Obama is a bright, cunning, and true believer in the Socialist/Marxist cause which is a dangerous combination when mixed with the power and prestige of the Presidency. Although it’s still a little too soon to know for sure, Michelle Obama may end up rivaling the likes of Mary Todd Lincoln, Eleanor Roosevelt, Jackie O and Hillary Rodham Clinton as one of the most influential First Ladies in our nation’s history.

The “Second Most Powerful Person in the Free World” sure as hell ain’t Uncle Joe Vice President Biden. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama is all over that position like white on rice. If she transforms into a fully fledged pathological liar, claims to have ducked sniper fire on foreign soil and starts adorning butt ugly pants suits, watch out, our Diva First Lady just might be the front runner in training for the 2016 Democrat Presidential Nomination.

An Obama Presidential Political Dynasty. A scenario that might even make Michelle Obama proud to be an American.

Week 3 – Alabama 53, North Texas 7

Roll Tide, Roll Tide, Roll on Mighty Tide

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 34: “You Lie!”

“So blame it on your lying, cheating, cold deadbeating,

Two-timing, double dealing

Mean mistreating, loving heart” Patty Loveless

“You Lie!”

Joe Wilson, the honorable Congressman representing the 2cd district of the great state of South Carolina, seriously breached the decorum of the House of Representatives Monday night during President Obama’s Healthcare Propaganda address to a joint session of Congress. Standing right up like he had good sense, openly and without shame, Representative Wilson shouted “You Lie! ” in response to a false claim by our Propagandist-in-Chief that his plans for Socialized Medicine would not cover illegal criminal aliens.

Openly rebuking and calling the President of the United States a liar to his face during a joint session of Congress in the House Chamber does seem to be unprecedented in the 200 plus year history of this frequently raucous and hyper partisan legislative body. However, outrageous breaches of civility and disregard for the Rules of Behavior for Congress established by Thomas Jefferson are more prevalent than white on rice. Some of the most notorious infractions include:

· In 1838 a pistol duel occurred in which William Graves of Kentucky shot and killed fellow congressman Jonathan Cilley of Maine over words spoken on the House floor. No sanctions were forthcoming.
· In the 1850’s a brawl ensued on the House floor when 50 or more representatives rushed across the aisle punching and pushing each other as the Speaker, James Orr of South Carolina, desperately banged the gavel pleading for order. The fight ended in laughter as one congressman pulled the wig off another setting the whole House of Representatives roaring with laughter.
· Prior to the War for Southern Independence a Congressmen from South Carolina, angered by a speech on slavery, entered the Senate chamber and beat a Senator from Massachusetts unconsciousness with a metal-topped wooden cane.
· An almost lethal exchange occurred between Missouri Senator Thomas Benton and Mississippi Senator Henry Foote back in 1850. Benton rushed up the center aisle toward Foote, who pulled a pistol. Benton shouted, "I have no pistols! Let him fire! Stand out of the way and let the assassin fire! A motion to adjourn finally put a halt to the potential shooting.
· More recently, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid called W a loser and California Congress Persons Pete Stark and Barbara Lee called W a liar on the House floor. The silence from the leftwing media elite pinheads was deafening.

Compared to these transgressions Representative Wilson’s outburst seems almost trivial. Regardless, the Gentlemen from South Carolina, an Eagle Scout and Colonel in the National Guard, acknowledged the error of his ways and issued an immediate apology directly to the President. Apology graciously accepted, end of story – not hardly.The liberal head cases in the House want blood and have publicly sanctioned the good Congressman and the mainstream media elite have “We, We’d,” all over themselves, to borrow a phrase from our Wordsmith-in-Chief, in their rush to demonize Mr. Wilson.

Lost in all this sanctimony and grandstanding is the most important question – was our Socialist-in-Chief actually taking liberties with the truth during his address to Congress? The answer to that question is not only yes, but a big by damn hell yes! In fact, a review of the public record going back to the Presidential campaign reveals our Fibber-in-Chief could give Madame Secretary of State and world renown pathological liar, Hillary “Adorner of the Butt Ugly Pants Suit “ Clinton, lessons on how to bend the truth.

“You Maker of Broken Promises”

All political candidates lie. Candidate Obama just raised it to a new and unprecedented level. A few of his most audacious claims during the campaign included:

· Not being aware of his spiritual mentor of 20 years, Reverend Jeremiah “Mr. GD America” Wrights’ anti American and racist rhetoric and viewpoint.
· Denying his close friendship and political alliance with domestic terrorist, Weather Underground member, Bill Ayers.
· A guarantee to veto any bill with even one congressional earmark. The 2009 Omnibus Budget Bill signed by Mr. “Veto” had over 8,000 earmarks.
· Promise to post all Bills on the White House Website before signing for 72 hours to allow public review and comment. This group tries to write, markup, vote out of committee, send to conference, take a floor vote and send to the President for his signature $1 Trillion pieces of legislation in 72 hours. Doesn’t exactly leave a lot of time for posting on the website, public scrutiny or for members to actually even read the bill before casting their vote
· Claims he would govern from the middle in a spirit of unprecedented bipartisanship. It would seem that the middle for a Marxist/Socialist is further left than the current policies of France’s Socialist Nanny State and bipartisanship is having one of his political hacks holding off for a day or two before accusing a Republican political opponent of being a racist.

“You Teller of Tall Tales”

After taking the Oath of Office our new Deceiver-in-Chief continued rolling out his web of lies at a fast and furious pace. Shifting into full “Chicken Little the Sky is Falling Crisis Mode” the Obamaites told some whoppers in their efforts to get their so called $1 Trillion Stimulus, or rather, the Obama Supporter Payback/Payoff Bill passed as a big sloppy wet kiss for the Unions, Trial Lawyers, ACORN and other assorted liberal low life’s. False claims in support of the bill included:

· It will stop unemployment from rising any higher than 8%. It’s currently at 9.7% and rising faster than a bat out of hell.
· Targeted, Temporary, and Timely. Targeted at Obama supporters. Temporary, Uncle Sammy made the same claim about IncomeTaxes. Timely, to date only about 15% has been expended. Considering the economy is finally showing signs of recovery in spite of boneheaded Big Government meddling and policies, as it eventually always does, how about returning the balance of money back to the treasury or better yet directly to us taxpayers as 1. It’s our money 2. It’s our money and 3. It’s our money.
· If we don’t pass this Trillion Dollar boondoggle the Country is facing an economic meltdown of biblical proportions. See bullet 2 above – having only spent 15% to date and a recovery looking more promising everyday any additional expenditure are totally unnecessary, as was the first 15%.
· The only segment of the Country who was actually stimulated by this Bill is all the liberal columnist, news anchors and talk show host. Most notably the likes of Chris Mathews, Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, Paul Krugman, Bill Moyers, and Bill Press whom seem to all have a serious man crush on our Stimulator-in-Chief, including the lovely Ms. Madow.

“You Truth Challenged Scoundrel”

Our Appeaser/Apologist-in-Chief also told some real gems about his intent to conduct an aggressive foreign policy strategy from a position of strength aligning himself with Senator Richard Lugar of Indiana and retired General Jim Jones. Instead, we have Jimmy “Peanut” Carter reincarnate bending over, grabbing his ankles and repeating “Thank you sir may I have another” to every tyrant, despot and third-world Banana Republic dictator.

Following are several examples of the Obama Foreign Policy Initiatives of Appeasement/ Apology:

.· Bowing so low to a Saudi Prince two other Heads of State tripped over his extruding ears.
· Chumming around and trading books with Venezuela Socialist Dictator and nutcase Hugo Chavez
· Offering apology’s for alleged past US transgressions ranging from our evil imperialist military actions to arrogance being the world’s only so called super power
· Reaching out to his Islamic brethren apologizing for our declaration of war on terrorism, commitment to win this war and unjustified aggressive and belligerent attitude toward those misguided but well meaning Jihadist

“You Spreader of Despicable Falsehoods”

Back to our Healer-in-Chief’s dreams of Socialized Universal Healthcare and his Propaganda Palooza at the recent joint session of Congress. Thoughts of Obama from Bama has reviewed several nonpartisan evaluations of the President’s speech and previously stated positions to confirm the veracity of his comments. Our analyses of several major points of contention are listed below:

· Obama: "Nothing in this plan will require you or your employer to change the coverage or the doctor you have. Let me repeat this: nothing in our plan requires you to change what you have."

FACT: Using the words reuire, the President is admitting that they can't guarantee Americans will keep their health plan. The point being no one knows for sure how many employers will drop their coverage if their plan goes into effect. One well respected Healthcare consultation firm, the Lewin Group, estimates the number could be more than 100 million Americans.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

· Obama: "The plan will not add to our deficit...I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits -- either now or in the future. Period."
FACT: According to the non-partisan CBO, the House Democrats' bill would increase the deficit by at least $239 billion over 10 years.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

· Obama: "It will slow the growth of health care costs for our families, our businesses, and our government."
FACT: The Associated Press has reported the Democrats' plan will increase costs and Congressional Budget Office Director Douglas Elmendorf warned lawmakers the legislation would raise costs, not lower them.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

· Obama: "If you come to me with a serious set of proposals, I will be there to listen. My door is always open."
FACT: Repeated GOP attempts and request for a meeting with the President have been ignored.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

· Obama: "I will not stand by while the special interests use the same old tactics to keep things exactly the way they are."
FACT: Obamacare is supported by an unprecedented coalition of doctors and nurses; hospitals, seniors' groups and even drug companies all bought off by the White House.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

· Obama: "We've estimated that most of this plan can be paid for by finding savings within the existing health care system -- a system that is currently full of waste and abuse."
FACT: The massive $1.6 trillion House bill's cost is not mostly "paid for" through savings in the existing health care system. The House bill actually includes more than $800 billion in new tax increases.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

· Obama: "And one more misunderstanding I want to clear up -- under our plan, no federal dollars will be used to fund abortions, and federal conscience laws will remain in place."
FACT: As written, it would allow the U.S. Secretary of Health & Human Services to include abortion as a benefit in the government-run health care option.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

· Obama: "Now, there are also those who claim that our reform efforts would insure illegal immigrants. This, too, is false. The reforms I am proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally."
FACT: (This is the big lie that served as the last straw for Representative Wilson.) The non-partisan Congressional Research Service has confirmed there is no mechanism included in the House bill to verify that individuals are U.S. citizens. Republicans also offered two amendments in the Ways and Means, and Energy and Commerce Committees that were rejected by Democrats that would have prevented illegal criminal immigrants from being automatically enrolled for federally subsidized healthcare.
Conclusion: “You Lie!”

“You Lie Boy”

To add insult to injury several boneheaded Yankee liberal nutjob so called journalist and a few prominent politicians, including the worst excuse for a Southerner that ever walked on God’s green earth, Jimmy “What an Embarrassment” Carter, have accused Congressman Wilson and anyone else who opposes our Deceiver-in-Chief of being racist. In each case not a shred of evidence to substantiate their absolutely ludicrous and completely unfounded charges.

Maureen Dowd, a Pulitzer Prize winner and admitted plagiarizer New York Times Columnist, had this to say:

· “Joe Wilson yelled “You lie!” at a president who didn’t. But, fair or not, what I heard was an unspoken word in the air: You lie, boy!”

As Ms Dowd is just a frog hair south of 60, making her a child of the 60’s, we can only assume her hallucinations and hearing of phantom voices are a result of one too many magic shrooms, abundant quantities of cocaine and/or a Woodstock flashback.

Her comrade at the Boston Globe, Columnist Margery Eagan, went even further. Not satisfied with just accusing Mr. Wilson of racisms, Ms Eagan decided to impugn the entire State of South Carolina. In her column last week, “Why blame Joe Wilson? His Home State is just South of Civilized: Southern congressman a long way from gentleman”, Ms. Eagan shared these astute observations:

· “The South Carolina factor: Around here, we call left-of-center types moonbats.”
· “Dingbats. Crackpots. Wing nuts. Just plain nuts. That seems to fit much of South Carolina. We’re the cradle of liberty. They’re the cradle of secession and, until 2000, flew the Confederate battle flag over their Statehouse”
· “Meanwhile, on Friday a group of black newspaper publishers charged Wilson with racism and canceled a January conference in South Carolina. And numerous commentators have remarked on the unfortunate image of Wilson’s eruption: There’s Wilson, the unhinged white guy in a sea of white guys, attacking America’s first black President”

Thoughts of Obama from Bama has two points we hope Ms Eagan will take under advisement.

1. Remember the little diddy about folks who live in glass houses and throwing stones? The entire 12 member Massachusetts Congressional Delegation consist of, in your words, a sea of white guys. The one lone exception is a white female. Not one black, brown, yellow or red face in the bunch – 0% minority representation.
In comparison, South Carolina’s 8 member Delegation has one black Representative, which gives them a total of 12.5% minority representation. Using your totally asinine method of deductive reasoning concluding Mr. Wilson and South Carolina’s rampant bigotry , Massachusetts must be populated by a bunch of no count racist who would be ashamed to have an African American represent them in the US Congress.

2. News Flash – Researchers at Boston Biomedical Research Institute announce discovery of most powerful and effective form of birth control known to man – Smart Ass Yankee Gals With Bostonian Accents.

“You Lie”

However inaproriate; boorish; lacking in decorum; rude; crude; and socially unacceptable Congressmen Wilson’s outburst may have been he did speak truth to power and focused the Country’s attention on the endless barrage of, dare we say lies, that roll off the tongues of the “Change We Can Believe In” bunch with far too much frequency and far too much ease.

Desperate times call for desperate measures and the Obama Administration’s attempt to impose a Socialist/Marxist coup on the most advanced and effective Healthcare System in the world certainly warrants a strong, immediate, unequivocal, and unprecedented response.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama applauds Congressmen Wilson’s courage, patriotism and service to our Country and encourages all of our elected officials to follow his lead. Speaking out against unconstitutional government intervention, corruption and public officials who mislead/lie to “We the People”, even when it’s the President of these here United States, is the solemn duty and responsibility of every single member of Congress. If a few Congressional Rules of Decorum or Etiquette get sidestepped in the process, you have our full support and blessings to proceed accordingly.

I am, “American by Birth and Southern by the Grace of God”

Week 2 – Alabama 40, FIU 14 Roll Tide, Roll Tide, Roll on Mighty Tide

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week 33: Propagandist-in-Chief

“The advance planning and sense stimuli employed to capture a $10 million cigarette or soap market are nothing compared to the brainwashing and propaganda blitzes used to ensure control of the largest cash market in the world: the Executive Branch of the United States Government”

Phyllis Schlafly, Conservative Activist

In America, the Home of the Brave, Land of the Free and one of the most highly educated citizenries in the history of the world , a national Presidential address to students on the first day of school should by all accounts receive enthusiastic wide spread support. The fact that such a speech delivered on the last day of Week 33 of the Socialist Obama Regime has caused such a major ruckus is a sad, troubling, and revealing commentary about the current occupant of the Oval Office.

In spite of vociferous whines of protest about unfounded and partisan attacks questioning the President’s motives from the White House and boneheaded leftist media elite, there are valid objections to our Propagandist-in-Chief addressing our impressionable youngins directly in a national broadcast. A few worth mentioning include:

1. He’s a Socialist.
2. He’s a Socialist heading toward full blown Communism faster than a runaway train.
3. He runs with a radical Socialist/Communist crowd
4. He’s a Pathological Narcissist
5. He’s one of the most gifted Propagandist since the likes of Tokyo Rose, Goebbels, and the leftwing liberal head case Michael “ Krispey Cream” Moore 6. He is viewed by many as a Messianic visionary and isn’t shy about promoting this image
7. He’s a true believer hell bent on imposing his “noble” beliefs on the unwashed masses
8. The speech comes on the heels of the White House website encouraging folks to rat on the fellow citizens when they see “Fishy” comments about Obamacare
9. It’s been confirmed the White House is collecting an email/database of any opposed to his dreams of a Marxist Utopia – an enemies list
10. He’s already taken over the US Auto and Financial industries and has a strong toehold on Energy and Healthcare
11. He’s got little Billy Bob and Betty Lou Thelma Lynn lined up as his next victims
12. Did we mention he’s a Socialist?

Further cause for concern was the White House and Department of Education’s unprecedented issuance of a “Study Guide” designed to “compliment” the President’s remarks. Distributed after the press release announcing the speech, this document is chock full of so much unadulterated praise and pro Obama propaganda it was immediately retracted with the lame excuse from the Obamanites ” We chose our words poorly”.

Following are several excerpts fabricated by the Obama Propaganda machine from the so called companion “Study Guide”:

· Students in grades 1-6 for example, are encouraged to "write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president”.
· Teachers are also given guidance to tell students to "build background knowledge about the president of the United States by reading books about presidents and Barack Obama."
· For grades 7-12 the Department of Education suggests teachers prepare by excerpting quotes from Obama's speeches on education for their students to contemplate
· Is President Obama inspiring you to do anything? Is he challenging you to do anything?
· Write about goals and the steps to achieve them in a variety of genres such as poems, songs, or personal essays.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama has obtained a top secret copy of the original draft of the “Study Guide” from high placed sources in the Department of Education revealing even more flagrant and outrageous examples of Obama’s nefarious propaganda strategy:

Several Examples of Multiple Choice Questions -

· Which one of the following 3 war criminals is most deserving of a public stoning? A. W B. VP Cheney C. John McCain D. All of the above – (D)
· Who caused the worst recession in the history of the civilized world? A. W B. W C. W D. All of the above – (D)
· Who inherited the worst recession in the history of the civilized world? A. President Obama B. President Obama C. President Obama D. All of the above – (D)
· Who are the world’s greatest historical political leaders? A. Karl Marx, B. Vladimir Lenin C. Joseph Stalin D. Mao Zedong E. Winston Churchill F. All of the above with the exception of E – (F)
· Who are the world’s greatest current political leaders? A. Barack H. Obama B. Fidel Castro C. Hugo Chavez D. Vladimir Putin E. All of the above – (E)
· Who's your daddy, who's your baby, Who's your buddy, who's your man

The same high placed sources in the Department of Education confirmed several copies of this top secret version of the “Study/Propaganda Guide” were distributed to school districts in liberal bastions including San Francisco, the District of Columbia, Boston and Barney “Freddie in your Fanny Mac” Franks’ back yard.

With the propaganda genie out of the bottle the White House speech writers/propaganda merchants were forced to fall back to Plan B and bring in Mr. Subliminal, Kevin Nealon of SNL fame, in a last ditch effort to brainwash America’s youth during the President’s National address. Nealson conducted a crash course on subliminal communications for our Propagandist-in-Chief and the White House wordsmiths drafted a seemingly harmless, innocuous Presidential chat with our nation’s youth that not even the most fervent of patriotic conservatives, Tea Party attending, proud gun owners, and NASCAR fans could ever object too.

In our relentless efforts to keep you informed, Thoughts of Obama from Bama has acquired a copy of the revised speech with the embedded subliminal messages only recognizable to the unconscious mind. Our unsuspecting youth will never know what hit them. Following are excerpts from this unforgivable attack on the future of America. The subliminal messages are denoted in purple:

Prepared Remarks of President Barack Obama Back to School
Arlington, Virginia September 8, 2009

“So I know some of you are still adjusting to being back at school. But I’m here today because I have something important to discuss with you. I’m here because I want to talk with you about your education and what’s expected of all of you in this new school year”. Worship at the altar of Obama and memorize the Communist Manifesto.

“And that’s what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education. I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself”. Worship at the altar of Obama and learn Russian

“Every single one of you has something you’re good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That’s the opportunity an education can provide”. Worship at the altar of Obama, Learn Domestic Terrorism tactics, and Socialist Revolutionary Strategies

“Maybe you could be a good writer – maybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspaper” Worship at the altar of Obama, attend Communist Propaganda School and become an Obama speech writer – “but you might not know it until you write a paper for your English class. Maybe you could be a mayor or a Senator or a Supreme Court Justice, but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team”. Worship at the altar of Obama, become a tax cheat, Socialist, a pathological liar and join the Obama Administration

“What you’re learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future”. Converting to a Communist Nanny State and worshiping at the altar of Obama

“You’ll need the insights and critical thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free”. Worship at the altar of Obama, become a Community Organizer and join the criminal, Socialist thugs at ACORN

“I get it. I know what that’s like. There were times when I missed having a father in my life. There were times when I was lonely and felt like I didn’t fit in”. Worship at the altar of Obama, victim card! victim card! victim card!

“So I wasn’t always as focused as I should have been. I did some things I’m not proud of, and got in more trouble than I should have”. I was stoned and strung out on crack for most of my high school and college years and highly recommend it man. Turn on, tune in, drop out and Worship at the altar of Obama “’And my life could have easily taken a turn for the worse’.

“Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day”. Especially to my 40 plus illegal, unconstitutional, mostly Socialist/Communist so called Czars and Worship at the altar of Obama. “Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s a sign of strength”.

“And even when you’re struggling, even when you’re discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on you – don’t ever give up on yourself”. Because yours truly, the malevolent Obama, and your comrades in the Communist/Socialist Parties will never give up on you and Worship at the altar of Obama “When you give up on yourself, you give up on your country”.

“I’m working hard to fix up your classrooms and get you the books, equipment and computers you need to learn”. And all the Socialist/Communist Propaganda we can get our hands on, Worship at the altar of Obama “But you’ve got to do your part too”. Join the Obama Youth Movement; Socialist Party; Communist Party; and attend Revolutionary Guerilla Warfare School and Worship at the altar of Obama

“So I expect you to get serious this year. I expect you to put your best effort into everything you do. I expect great things from each of you”. So don’t let us down my young comrades, Worship at the altar of Obama – “don’t let your family or your country or yourself down. Make us all proud. I know you can do it”.

“Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America”. Allah the Great, Allah the Benevolent, Worship at the altar of Obama

If you see gangs of Obama Youth stoned on crack hitting the streets chanting “2, 4, 6, 8, We want to live in a Socialist Nanny State” you’ll know the Obama propagandist accomplished their insidious mission to corrupt the youth of America. Thoughts of Obama from Bama also has it on good authority when the audio of the speech is played backwards the following message is heard – “I love Castro, W is the Devil, W is the Devil, Hail Obama! Hail Obama!” The Thought Police in the West Wing will obviously stop at nothing to poison the hearts and minds of our children.

Instead of a Presidential speech or address from any politician Thoughts of Obama from Bama believes our nation’s youth would be much better served by participating in one of the following activities on the first day back at school:

1. Watch the 9/11 news accounts of the unprovoked and barbaric attacks on our Country by cowardly Islamic Jihadist terrorist. Actually, a monthly viewing of the carnage of that day should probably be a mandatory activity for all public schools.

2. A public reading of the Declaration of Independence. Truly one of the most insightful and important political documents ever written.

3. A public reading of Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. A brilliant, profound, thoughtful tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the War for Southern Independence

4. Watch the movie “Private Ryan”. A realistic depiction of the brutality of war and the character and spirit of the American soldier who saved the world from oppression and tyranny.

5. Watch the classic Coach Paul Bear Bryant South Central Bell commercial that captures the true essence of family values in a 30 second TV add – “Have you called your Momma today? I sure wish I could call mine”.

6. Watch the greatest high school, teen, skip school movie of all time, Ferris Bueller. Best rendition of “Twist and Shout” and profound philosophical pearls of wisdom from Ferris and his cohorts. “Not that I condone fascism, or any -ism for that matter. -Ism's in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me. Good point there. After all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people".

Week 33 of our Propaganda-in-Chief’s Administration marked a new low in this crowd’s efforts to brainwash our nation’s youth. Best grab Granny and the kids, stay vigilant, and let this bunch know, in no uncertain terms, to keep their grubby little Socialist do-gooder hands off of our kids.

Week 33 also marked the opening day for college football, more importantly SEC football, and most importantly Alabama football.

Alabama 34 – Virginia Tech 24, Roll Tide, Roll Tide, Roll on Mighty Tide!

Thoughts of Obama from Bama

Week Thirty – Two: “The Senator Edward M. (Uncle Teddy) Kennedy Memorial; I’m Wealthy Enough to Buy Off the Authorities and Family of the Girl I Murdered in Chappaquiddick So I Obviously Have the Means That Give Me and the Entire Kennedy Clan Immediate Access to the Highest Quality Healthcare and Best Doctors in the World; Unabashedly, Openly, and Without Shame Going For the Sympathy Vote; Screw the Really Old, Young, Sick, Poor, and Disabled; Paid for by the Middle Class; Healthcare/Health Insurance Reform Bill”

_

“Fool Me Once, Shame on Me Fool Me Twice, Shame on You” Old Chinese Proverb

Or as infamously butchered by W,

Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again.”

Week 32 of the of the “Yes We Can and Will Shamelessly Exploit the Death of the Lion of the Senate to Mislead We the People About Our Utopian Socialist Plans for the US Healthcare System” crowd was surprisingly eventful for late August. With the President enjoying his $35 thousand dollar a week vacation rental in the liberal elite fantasy land, Martha’s Vineyard, and the Congress taking their “well deserved” summer vacation, the White House propaganda machine kept churning along advocating their old, and a few new, pacifist, Marxist policy initiatives.

As a sidebar - just imagine if W had indulged in such an expensive holiday at one of the most exclusive travel destinations in the Country during his Presidency. The leftwing media boneheads would have “wee, wee’d up”, to borrow a phrase from our Harvard Scholar-in Chief, all over themselves (President Obama actually used this phrase, verbatim, while addressing the Democrat National Committee when referring to pundits critical of his Healthcare debacle) just in case you missed it.

The news anchors head’s would have exploded on national TV at all the networks and cable stations, with the exception of FOX, as they reported on the heartless, inconsiderate W enjoying a luxurious getaway as the masses suffered through the worst economic downturn since the Fall of Rome. They actually did go ballistic, claiming he was neglecting the War on Terror, when he took time off for a round of golf or some R&R at his ranch in Crawford. Nothing like a free and unbiased press looking out for our best interest to make one sleep like a fat baby at night.

Anyway, we digress, back to Week 32 highlights of the “Change We Can Believe In Like Retreating from The War on Terror Faster Than a Scolded Dog Running Back Home to Moma” bunch and their comrades in Congress:

1. The 1 Trillion Dollar plus Stimulus/Obama Supporters Payback Bill continues to push the ailing economy inherited from W into hyper-overdrive. According to the White House Spin Machine double digit unemployment, record deficits and continued negative growth are nothing but small speed-bumps on the road to recovery.

No comment so far from the Administration on the 10,000 stimulus checks issued to dead folk and 4,000 to currently incarcerated convicts. Thoughts of Obama from Bama has it on good authority the 10,000 stiffs receiving checks are the same 10,000 recently deceased who voted for Obama in Ohio in the 2008 election giving him the win in this crucial swing state.

2. Word leaked out about three more self proclaimed, unabashed, admitting openly and without shame Communist recently appointed Obama Czars:
Green Jobs Czar – Van Jones, former head of the leftwing, radical, communist leaning Community Organization Group the Ella Baker Center in California, proclaimed as recently as last April these pearls of wisdom about the environment: “We're really entering a third wave of environmentalism in the United States. The white polluters and the white environmentalists are essentially steering poison into the people of color communities.” Just what we need - another paranoid, racist, Communist working in the West Wing. Diversity Czar – Mark Lloyd, who in 2008, participating in a conference on media reform, railed on about what a wonderful leader Venezuela's Hugo Chavez was describing his illegal and brutal government takeover as an "incredible revolution, a democratic revolution." Said to also be a huge Stalin; Castro; Mao; Hanoi Jane; and Streisand fan.

Regulatory Czar- Cass Sunstien, a card carrying member of PETA head case who advocates granting animals standing to bring lawsuits, Also an avid golfer who is frequently joined by Mr. Ed, Flipper, and one of the Truck Monkeys for 18 holes.

3. Wild eyed Islamic Jihadist terrorist from Tehran to Tripoli are “all wee, wee’d up”, quoting our Interrogator-in-Chief again, about the White Houses’ decision to take direct operational control of interrogations of high value detainees – known as cowardly, camel crotch sniffing, scumbag terrorist to the rest of us.

The thought of pacifist White House Ivy League law grads and pointy headed academics politely asking questions as prescribed in the Army Field Manuel has terrorist leaders worldwide hitting those prayer rugs in earnest asking Allah for deliverance. Rumor has it the new policy has already achieved positive results. Upon hearing the news one Al Qaeda chieftain laughed so hard and long he stroked out, died on the spot, face down in his bowl of goat eyes delight.

4. Following directives for “Over Throwing a Sitting Government From Within” as described in the Communist Manifesto and Socialist Revolutionary Handbook the Obama White House is making an all out effort to criminalize the policies of their predecessor, W. Attorney General Holder’s recent appointment of a Special Prosecutor to investigate the Advanced Interrogation Techniques used by the CIA with W’s approval is the latest move on this front.

Vice President Cheney blasted this decision over the weekend accusing the Administration of playing politics with national security and for establishing a dangerous precedent. He further stated their approach is silly and that the he seriously doubts the President understands the issues or has the ability to protect the nation. The White House responded by calling Cheney Darth Vader, Dr. Evil, Mr. Nasty, and Chuckles. Wonder what Harvard law grad, pinheaded, White House Spin Doctor came up with this clever retort.

5. Town halls and vocal mainstream opposition to the President’s proposed Socialist Healthcare Reform continued to dominate the national discourse. Seemingly well informed, well educated and well armed with multiple cans of “whip ass” fellow citizens are showing up in mass to express their opposition to ObamaCare in person to their elected officials. Sadly, most of these legitimate and valid concerns are falling on deaf ears.

Leftwing; big Government; liberal elite; closet Communist; public Socialist; bleeding heart; radical; Obama faithful; Congressional Democrats; and seriously misguided and deranged Republicans (Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins and Chuck Grassley for starters) have every intention of shoving Socialized Medicine down our collective throats come Hell or high-water. Diane Watson’s, California’s Representative from the 33rd District, comments at her Town hall meeting this week are representative of the boneheaded views held by many advocating National Healthcare. She kicked the meeting off by accusing any opposed to Socialized Medicine as not being capable of supporting a President the same color as her. A strong play of the race card along with a subtle hint of victimization.

She then, just standing right up there on the stage like she had good sense, raved on about the world class Health System in Cuba and her great admiration for Presedente Castro. Who, according to Representative Watson, was recruited by one of her other Communist heroes, Che Guevara, to govern post Revolutionary Cuba. Thoughts of Obama from Bama pity’s the folks residing in California’s 33rd District. Ms Watson is wrong on the issues, wrong on the ideology, wrong on her historical facts regarding Cuba’s Revolution and an embarrassment to the US Congress and her constituents with her racist, Socialist viewpoints.

Of course the headliner of week 32 was the passing; mourning; memorializing; shameless exploitation; and martyrdom of Senator Edward M. Kennedy. An icon of radical leftwing extremist and the poster child for bleeding heart liberalism.

Like many people of great wealth, power and fame his life is a study in contradiction. The beloved patriarch of the modern day Kennedy clan affectionately referred to as Dad and/or Uncle Teddy. At the same time, a hard drinking, philandering, skirt chaser who pushed that envelope way too often and entirely too far. Leaving Mary Jo Kopechne to die in his submerged car that he drove off a bridge after a long night of drinking on Chappaquiddick Island back in 1969 cost Ms. Kopechne her life and Teddy Kennedy the US Presidency.

The Obama Administration’s maxim to never miss the opportunity to take advantage of a crisis seems to also be applicable for recently departed Senior Senators from the great state of Massachusetts. In a shameless attempt to revive the President’s rapidly self destructing grandiose dreams of Universal Healthcare the White House put out the word to elevate Senator Kennedy from a lifelong legislative champion to Martyred Patron Saint status in the holy cause of Healthcare Reform.

Even while the body was still warm several members of the Kennedy family, congressional colleagues, and from behind the scenes the Obama White House summoned all the faithful to rally around Socialized Medicine in the name of their fallen champion. Senate Majority Leader and soon to be the former Senator from the great state Nevada, Harry Reid, proclaimed Kennedy’s death will inspire the Congress to meet its moral obligation and pass Reform immediately. Senator Dick Durbin from Illinois, Representative Ed Markey from Kennedy’s home state and several others have called for naming the final Bill in memory of the late “Liberal Lion of the Senate”.

The most pathetic and shameless expressions of support for Obama/Kennedy style Government controlled Healthcare were delivered by family members at the various Memorial Services during the week. Most egregious of these were the remarks of 10 year old Kennedy Grandson, Max Allen.

_

Young Mr. Allen called for "Quality Healthcare for Every American" at the funeral with solicited audience response of "Lord, Hear our Prayers". This blatant, shameless exploitation of the Senator’s death and his obviously grief stricken 10 year old Grandson is low even for the political hacks running the Obama Administration.

Thoughts of Obama from Bama sincerely hopes the “Edward M Kennedy …; ..; …; Socialized; Universal; Single Payer, Healthcare Reform Bill” quickly crashes, burns and goes down in flames. We do, however, promise in our efforts to achieve this goal not to shamelessly exploit any recently deceased Senators or 10 year boys.

Speaking of which – a warning to young Master Allen might be in order. After the success of your “Quality Healthcare for Every American” speech don’t be surprised when the President taps you as his next Healthcare Reform Czar so he can take full advantage of your Uncles’ death and you’re telegenic youth, innocence and grief. The only caveat, all Obama Czars are required to sign an oath of allegiance to the President and either the Communist, Socialist or Fascist Party.

On this one we strongly suggest you follow your Uncle Arnold’s lead and tell the boys "Hasta la vista, baby!",” "I’ll be back" with my Uncle Arnold and his good friend Vice President Cheney to kick your sorry Commie / Socialist /Faciest arses back to the Obama White House; San Francisco; Moscow; Peking; and/or Havana so you can indulge yourself in the best of state sponsored Socialized Medicine until you’re premature death from an infected big toe nail”.

The enlightened, great humanitarian, Cuban physicians concluded you were too white; too fat; drank way too much Rum and Coke; smoked too many cigars; and scored way too low on their “Value of Life Sliding Scale” to even consider for medical treatment.

"Hasta la vista, baby!"
