Say Communism!

By Tammy Derouin

It was bad enough that the executive not only went to Cuba, but he willingly posed for the cameras in front of a mural of Che Guevara.  Say Communism!  There should have been an enormous amount of outrage considering Che was a Marxist revolutionary.  But, he has become an iconic symbol of leftist radicalism. So, an American president posing with Che in the background must be the new normal.

Do you see a pattern?  Obama enjoys aligning himself with individuals and regimes which are in direct contrast to our fundamental, founding beliefs.  The executive really enjoys mocking the United States, doesn’t he?  You can almost see the twinkle in his eyes as he mixes and mingles among tyrants around the world.  Of course, it wasn’t long before things took yet another embarrassing turn.

While Belgium, one of our European friends, was under attack, our anti-American executive went to a baseball game in Cuba.  While European nations and security forces within the United States went on high alert, our self-centered executive danced the tango in Argentina. 

His ideology gets more transparent every day.  We have an executive who plays nice with tyrants and kicks and beats down those who want to preserve our Constitution and our freedoms. We have allowed our country to transform into something it was never meant to be because we allowed ourselves to be intimidated.

Whatever is necessary to humiliate and destroy our country, this executive is willing to do.  His pathetic response to the terrorist attack in Brussels only reinforces his lack of concern for our enemy; an enemy which he refuses to identify. 

Obama is more concerned about preserving the image of Islam than preserving our country.  I’m sick and tired of his condescending words.  Another attack means another lecture on how we, as a nation should act.  Obama stated, according to CBS News to, “Reject an attempt to stigmatize Muslim-Americans, and their enormous contributions to our country and our way of life.”

First of all, enough is enough.  The executive may never be at war with Islam but Islam is at war with the West.  Just because Obama can’t speak the truth doesn’t mean it isn’t true.  Second, what?  I love American history so I take issue with his constant insistence that Muslims have made an enormous contribution to our country and our way of life.  No they haven’t.  This is just another attempt to change our history and our traditions, something his wife said we needed to do while she campaigned for him before the 2008 disaster.  

The terrorists, who want to destroy us, cling to their religion and guns.  They take their beliefs very seriously and will kill anyone who does not agree or submit to their will.  Why is it acceptable, in the eyes of Obama, for our enemies to cling to religion and guns when they are being used to destroy us?  Why did the executive use religion and guns to mock Americans?  Americans aren’t using religion or guns to wage war against non-believers of the Christian faith. Sounds like a double standard.  Why do you suppose that is?

Obama knows and understands that those who do not believe the ideology of our enemies are targets.  That means the American people are targets.  If we are targets, why doesn’t he secure our borders?  Why does he do everything he can to disarm law abiding American citizens while giving aid and comfort to our enemies? The U.S. Constitution describes such actions as treason.

His actions seem like another well placed bow to our enemies.  We have had individuals in the White House who have made bad decisions and who have acted inappropriately.  But, up until this administration, there has never been such an overwhelming feeling, or understanding, that our country is being undermined and our stability as a free and independent nation is in the cross-hairs.   

I wish Obama’s liberal followers, or quite frankly, anyone who calls themselves an American but is willing to vote for far Left, socialist politicians and their destructive policies, would do a little research.  If they check into the history and ideology of the people they are so eager to support in an election, they may be horribly surprised.  

Strip away the political rhetoric, stand back and take a long hard look at the agenda the Left is promoting.  If people paid more attention, they would be truly outraged.  Are we the land of the free, which promotes freedom and self-reliance or are we going to become the land of the enslaved, who depend on the government to make every decision for us?  Time is running out.

“The time is near at hand which must determine whether Americans are to be free men or slaves.”
