Obama Redefines ‘Freedom’ In Recent Speech
“As Democrats,” he said, “we’ve let the other side define the word ‘freedom’ for too long.”
B. Christopher Agee / Western Journalism
Speaking before a friendly crowd of Democrat supporters Friday, Barack Obama indicated that America’s true defenders of freedom belong to his party.
“As Democrats,” he said, “we’ve let the other side define the word ‘freedom’ for too long.”
At that point, he began a lengthy attempt to redefine the word in radical leftist parlance bearing little resemblance to the liberties enumerated by our founding fathers. While Americans have embraced the right of the individual for generations, Obama asserted true freedom is determined by the whims of an interventionist central government.
“Freedom is the peace of mind of knowing that if you get sick, you won’t lose everything,” he said in a transparent plug for his monumentally disastrous ObamaCare law. “Freedom is the ability to change jobs and start a new business, chase a new idea without fear of losing your health insurance.”
Self-reliance was once viewed as the cornerstone of freedom, at least by American standards. Obama, on the other hand, concludes that belief must be updated by enumerating countless invented ‘rights’ that in reality curtail legitimate freedom.
Building upon typical leftist talking points, Obama suggested freedom is found in such abstract pursuits as “getting that new credit card and knowing the stakes and understanding how you’re going to manage it….”
Of course, he could not resist the opportunity to once again voice his undying concern for those who live in constant violation of America’s immigration laws.
“Freedom is the knowledge that your future in this country is secure,” he suggested, and that “you’re not going to be treated like a second-class person once we fix our broken immigration system. That’s freedom.”
