One Guy's Opinion on the Political Scene By: Jim Herndon
Commander-In-Chief?
It’s a matter of public debate whether Barack Obama can shake off the hit he took for his 20 year intimate relationship with the America-hating, anti-white racist minister, and his wife’s revealing statements along the same lines.
He is still ahead largely because the leftist media has taken sides and given him a free ride. With the media aiding and abetting and a following of young Liberals that he has completely taken in with flowery, populist rhetoric, he appeared to have an easy stroll to the Democrat nomination until his association with the racist minister hit the scene and still looks pretty solid to win race. This is worrisome because of the gradually clarifying image of what Obama, the senator that The National Journal ranked the most Liberal in Congress, will do to America if he resides in the top office. As president and commander of our military he would have automatic access to the highest level of military and national secrets. Ironic since, if he were a scientist applying for a position dealing with top secret information, the FBI would never grant him a top secret clearance because of his Muslim past and loyalty issues regarding his close relationship with anti-American Jeremiah Wright and former Weather Underground member and domestic terrorist, Bill Ayers.
To many Americans, the economy is our most pressing issue. Obama’s comments on the economy are a mix of crowd pleasing populism with the usual liberal class struggle rhetoric, but, in the final analysis, he seems completely ignorant of what it means to have a market economy. In fact, everything he says is anti-free market. He talks of price controls, trade restrictions, subsidies, and government control of business – in short, Socialism.
