Wannabe President Is No King
*SOLO-International Press Release: Wannabe President Is No King
**August 29, 2008 *
*I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.** * *”Martin Luther King * The spectacle of a black man accepting the nomination of a major political party as its candidate for the United States presidency would ordinarily be something to savor and celebrate, notes SOLO Principal Lindsay Perigo.
"Racism has long been an unconscionable and contradictory stain on the great American enterprise. A demonstration that skin color is irrelevant to success in politics at the highest level would be very timely.
"How sad, then, that Barack Obama's acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention showed that his own success is not based on the content of his character.
"Obama is not an authentic fulfillment of Martin Luther King's dream, articulated so memorably 45 years ago to the day. He is a charlatan and a demagogue, mimicking King's rhetorical style but sporting a huge fork in his tongue, with the left side grotesquely swollen.
"Today, the Leftist Obama who voted to raise taxes pretended he now plans to *cut* them (except for those on his bogey-men, the super-successful). The Saddamite Obama, friend of terrorist William Ayers, who voted against the liberation of Iraq and opposed the Surge, talked tough on terror and pretended the withdrawal of troops could responsibly have been contemplated *without* the Surge. The socialist Obama simultaneously pretended to believe it was a parental responsibility to turn off the television ... and threatened dramatically greater government control of pre-school education. The fascist Obama vowed to force health insurance companies to provide coverage in cases where they'd rather not.
The Global Warmonger Obama, who has had to be dragged kicking and screaming into accepting the need for new oil drilling in and around America, pledged to end dependency on foreign oil in ten years - but was still pinning his faith in silly and inefficient 'renewables' schemes, mandated no doubt by ... *the government*. The collectivist Obama pretended to believe in individual responsibility while touting '*mutual *responsibility' and insisting we are all our brothers' keepers. The original American idea of sovereign individuals who offer help *voluntarily,* out of the authentic benevolence that comes with freedom, is clearly alien to him.
"The fact that CNN's commentators are having orgasms over the speech is further testament to its totalitarian credentials and implications.
"The goal of America, Martin Luther King reminded us 45 years ago, is
* freedom*. Freedom-lovers who are properly indifferent to the color of Obama's skin will assuredly pass him up because of the anti-freedom content of his beliefs," Perigo concludes.
