Thoughts on President Obama

January 20, 2009

 

          Today was the Inauguration and Obama has become the 44th President of the United States. It is a sad day for our country if Obama holds to his beliefs and implements his radical socialism, humanistic idealism, and change for America.  Although President Obama speaks of values, his values are fundamentally different than those held by our forefathers. Obama wants to increase the size and role of government, which is different than what our founding fathers desired. They viewed government as a necessary evil, which would tread on the individual liberties of men if left to grow excessively. They purposely had few government institutions because they realized the natural tendency of bureaucracy is to grow uncontrollably. Also, they feared that the citizens may one day become dependent on government - hardly would they expect it to include industry and our financial institutions. The financial crisis only highlights the need to return to sound economic principles espoused by our Fathers. Small government free from excessive regulation alleviates the tax burden required by large governments, enabling industry and commerce to grow and expand. A financial plan that expects government to print more dollars and to spend more on programs in order to bring us out of financial crisis is shear lunacy doomed to failure. It will only prolong the crisis and could lead to a depression on the scale of the Great Depression. Hopefully, the massive spending proposed by Obama is pure election hype and not his true beliefs – for the sake of our country.


President Obama has in the past shown a great naïveté when it comes to foreign policy. His belief that negotiations and diplomacy can solve our problems with “terrorism” and rogue nations is extremely worrisome. As he lets up pressure on terrorists and rogue nations, they will regroup and focus their resources on our homeland. When you consider the magnitude of destruction that WMDs could cause for America, there cannot be a letup in national security if our nation is to survive. Taking away our options like “water-boarding” only moves the time forward in which we are attacked by WMDs and other massive attacks like 9/11. The national security experts all say “it is not a matter of ‘if’ we are attacked but ‘when’ we are attacked”.  Found within Obama’s liberal thinking is the humanistic notion that all people are basically good. Our founding fathers held to the Judeo-Christian values that recognized that mankind is basically evil at our core. This is why our government was divided into three branches, because they did not trust one person with too much power. Past experience had proved over and over in Europe that too much control would lead to oppression by good men corrupted by power.

 

 



 


As Obama reaches out to rogue leaders with the belief that all people are basically good and very much like ourselves, he fails to recognize the evil in the world that we must confront. If Obama approaches foreign policy like Chamberlain, who negotiated with Hitler, then our nation will be in serious danger!

Another foreign policy concern is the world-wide re-alignment that is going on. China has emerged as the Asian economic powerhouse and they are using this clout around the world to minimize the United States power and influence. China is undergoing one of the largest military buildups in world history. It is implementing asymmetrical warfare against us by focusing unconventional battle techniques such as spying, Internet hacking, business pressure, and using front companies to collect military technology. Their black projects include missiles capable in destroying our satellites, high energy beams capable in knocking out our advanced electronics and systems, missiles capable to sink our aircraft carries, and nanotechnology used in spying and capable of decapitating our military superiority.  Included in this warfare is the alignment of countries against the United States such as Russia, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, Brazil and North Korea. China has recently conducted joint maneuvers with Russia using strategic nuclear bombers in their “fight against terrorism”.  Also, Russia has moved into South America by conducting joint maneuvers with Venezuela.  The President, Chavez, stated directly that the maneuvers were aimed to counter the United States.  President Obama seems to have little understanding of the re-alignment happening in the world and the danger it poses for the United States. This is another potential area where Obama could fail miserably.

 

Our founding fathers also held to the belief that all people have the right to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”. Liberals like to point out the hypocrisy of our founding fathers who embraced this creed but at the same time allowed slavery. The election of President Obama in some measure reflects a fuller embracement of this creed, but ironically Obama is a strong supporter of abortion.  He even advocated abortion in cases where a failed abortion occurred and the baby was born alive, when he was a Senator. Again the hypocrisy is astounding and our crimes against humanity are brazen for all to see.  As Lincoln and others saw the civil war as God’s retribution for slavery, so today we can only wonder what retribution God has in store for our nation for the death of millions of unborn helpless babies. President Obama’s choice of judges may bring us closer to God’s judgment. Another concern is radical judges focused on pushing the homosexual agenda forcing all people to accept homosexuality as moral and indoctrinating our children. If Obama supports these judges, it will reflect a departure from the values and morals that made our country great. As Rome fell into debauchery - it led to the demise of the empire - so too we may see our demise.

 

The challenges before our nation are significant. President Obama is about to take the helm of leadership and move our nation in a new direction embracing new values which are self-destructive and fundamentally different from our forefathers. As loyal Americans, we must resist the changes and fight on to bring our country back to our basic values. Although the task may seem daunting, we must not give up and remember that we hold the future of our country in our hand.  Press on for our children depend on it!
