Obama's Recent Lies

  • I’m confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress.

  • American oil production is the highest that it’s been in eight years.

  • Every idea that we’ve put forward are ones that traditionally have been supported by Democrats and Republicans alike.

  • Then you’ve got their (GOP) plan which is dirtier air, dirtier water, less people with health insurance

  • Republicans want to ban contraception.

  • Tax cuts and deregulation have "never worked" to grow the economy.
  • Bush's tax cuts on the rich only managed to produced "massive deficits" and the "slowest job growth in half a century."
  • The "wealthiest Americans are paying the lowest taxes in over half a century."
  • We can keep tax breaks for the rich in place, or make needed investments, "but we can't do both."
President Barack Obama from a speech in Osawatomie, Kansas
Here are a few more relevant quotes:
  • Propaganda should be popular, not intellectually pleasing. It is not the task of propaganda to discover intellectual truths.   
Joseph Goebbels, Hitler's Propaganda minister

  • But the most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly and with unflagging attention. It must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over. Here, as so often in this world, persistence is the first and most important requirement for success. 
  • If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth.  If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
Adolf Hitler from Mein Kampf

George and Trayvon

The media is at a high frenzy over the shooting of Trayvon Martin.  They have tried and convicted George Zimmerman for racial profiling, hate crime, and murder.  Politicians have done the same, when any fair look at the facts leads one to the conclusion that we really don't know what happened.  What few facts we do have indicate that either Trayvon or George might be the culprit.

First, I cannot defend George Zimmerman's actions.  He was told by the 911 dispatcher to not follow the suspicious person that he dialed 911 about.  He disregarded and followed anyway.  That was stupid.  The more egregious action was, as stated by Bill Cosby,  he had a gun.  What gives a neighborhood watch volunteer the right to pack iron?  George essentially set himself up for a catastrophic event by following a suspicious character with a gun.  However, neither of these two stupid actions in themselves was a crime.

We really know nothing about Trayvon.  He might have been a local thug who attacked Zimmerman when threatened.  Or he could have been a profiled and innocent young man found in the wrong place at the wrong time by a vigilante.  We don't know which, but we will soon enough.  The Sanford PD has quite a bit of evidence that has not yet been released.  When they do, we will know which of the two should be held accountable for the death.

What we do know is that powerful forces are attempting to race bait the American public into a race war.  Why else would congress people leap to conclusions such as that Trayvon was hunted down like a dog and executed?  Why would another wear a hoodie on the house floor to make a .... point I guess?  Why would Obama enter the discussion by saying that if he had a son, he would look like Trayvon?

Why hasn't the justice department pursued the black panther members who put a bounty on George Zimmerman's head?  Why did the media not call a foul when Spike Lee tweeted what he thought was Zimmerman's home address?

Why would the mainstream media depict Trayvon as a young innocent teen using a several year old photo when more recent ones were available?  Why would they treat George completely opposite by using a heavier and rougher looking picture instead of the clean cut suit and tie version that was also available? Obviously the media is using the images to tell a story they want to tell.  That an old fat Mexican killed a young, sweet black kid.





Why do they call George Zimmerman a white Hispanic?  Have they ever called Obama a white African?  Both have white parents.  Will the media follow up with master race baiter Sharpton and Jackson if the evidence shows that Trayvon attacked George?

I am led to one conclusion.  Many in congress and nearly all of the mainstream media believe that Obama will lose reelection unless the black voters are energized.  A race war might just ensure that  blacks turn out in November in mass as they did in 2008.  This voting block chose Obama by 90% in the last election.  Without them, Obama cannot be reelected.  Is the reelection of Obama worth the price of a race war?
