Straw - I just finished dSouzas new book as well as Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals. I have read Creature from Jeklyll island, Hazlitts Econ in one lesson, and many others recently.
I am 1000% convinced Obama is seeking to collapse the nation and achieve revolutionary "change'. Straw - if you read alinsky's book, Obama parrots many of the ideas, themese, even actual phrases in there word for freaking word like.
Obama is not dumb in the sense that he does not know the ffects of his policies, he does, and that's why he is pushing them. He is smart in that he knows he cant be honest with the public since he knows that the public hates his goals and policies by an large. This is why he does almost no public press conferences despite the need for them, reliance on the teleprompter, and speaks almost always in generalities and never specifics of his policies.
If you look at the totalitiy of obama's agenda, obamacare, cap and trade, finreg, auto takeover, school loan takeover, etc etc, using the EPA to shut down domestic energy producers and impose mandates and regs impossible to meet, his goal is to collapse the existing system by making is unworkable, let it collapse, and then 'transform" it into a socialist/marxist model which is his true intention. He even admitted as much on health care if you look it up.
And its not only health care and cap & trade, its support for the mosque, civilian trials for terrorists in NYC, radicalizing the DOJ, suing Arizona, the gates affair, etc etc - all of which are meant to undermine the existing fabric of the nation he knows is a center right politic. His goal is to undermine, depress, and make the average american completely overwhelmed by a feeling of helplessness such that they beg for him and the govt to take over and run the economy, their lives, and literally everything.
Obama has revealed all of this in a few different venues. I posted a clip where he said his biggest gripe with the constitution is that it is one of "negative liberties" to where it only deals with what the government "cant do to you" and not "what it should do on yourbehalf" Its essentially a complete repudiation of what this nation was founded upon and he believes the force of his charachter is enough to usher this transformation in because most of the public is uninformed, ignorant, apathetic, and somehwat trusting of him. He also uses his race to his advantage in that he knows he can get away with a lot more, and suffer a lot less scrutiny from the msm, out of fear of the racial accusations, etc etc.
I know all of this sounds outlandish, but when you read the actual history of this man, his statements, his past, his influences, the obvious outcomes of these crazy policies, the many times people have warned him not to pursue these things, one can only come to the conclusion that Obama is intending to collapse the existing structure and hope that the populace is willing and desirous of a socialist marxist state.
BTW - if you think i am making this up on the economic stuff, go look through my thread on obama the job destroyer.
