Flim Flam, Horsefeathers & Horseshit

I ask your indulgence again as I address some of the current “mud-slinging” that has as it’s main goal and purpose to derail the healthcare reform and destroy any success this Administration has.

Back in January, Rush Limbaugh stated, “I hope he fails” in a speech on his radio program…On July 20th he stated that President Obama has yet to prove he is a citizen (on June 16, 2008 a Birth Certificate certified by the Department of Health for the State of Hawaii was produced)…On August 7th Limbaugh compared President Obama to Adolph Hitler.

The fox news personality, Glen Beck (you can not legimately call him a newscaster…because they have to deal in facts and diligently research what they report) crossed-the-line when he said that the President is a racist with a “deep-seated hatred for white people.” No proof was provided for these statements and Mr. Beck was given a "forced vacation" to decide whether he needs to apologize to the President.

In the past Ann Coulter has stated: “…I do think anyone named B. Hussein Obama should avoid using ‘hijack and ‘religion’ in the same sentence.”

And people like Bill O’Reilly and Dennis Miller doing the George Burns/Gracie Allen “shtick” attacking the President.

I don't understand this...it is nothing like the criticism that "W" faced for what may have been war crimes...after all, Natalie Maines (the lead singer of the Dixie Chicks)only said that she was ashamed that he was from Texas...and there was hate mail and even a serious death threat.

There doesn't seem to be appropriate responses to the facts that President Obama has been portrayed on FOX NEWS "as suspicious, foreign, fearsome - just short of a terrorist."

This President has the capabilities and drive to be one of the greatest that we have ever had...and he is subjected to being called a terrorist, compared to Adolph Hitler, and even recently called the anti-Christ. A Rabbi translated his name from the Aramaic into something like lightning and the heights (Baraq Bama) from this some "fringe elements" of the Christian Radical Right have made a video that insinuates that the President IS the Anti-Christ.

I have more questions than answers...questions like is this because of racial bias...do any of these individuals posess REAL WORKING brain cells...is there that much fear and hatred among the former Administration, their cohorts and puppets...will this brilliant man EVER get the recognition he deserves for the efforts he is making in behalf of the WHOLE country...these things trouble me very much!!


Until next time...
