Freedom Outpost
When Obama was first elected, liberal friends of mine often confided that they were mystified by what they perceived as absolute hatred for Obama on the part of many conservatives.
Nothing I could say made any sense to these folks. But that was in the early stages of the Obama presidency. What I would say now in answer to their question is this: although there have been a number of periods of reform in the United States, such as the Revolution against Britain, the New Deal, the 60′s, none of them have involved a change in the Core Values traditionally represented by the United States and the West generally.
Now we are at the cusp of a different kind of reform in which the issue is whether the Core Values of American culture are to be preserved or changed to values that have been, at best, on the fringes of American life. Obama represents those competing values.
It was apparent in Obama’s campaign for the presidency that something was wrong. He appeared detached, enigmatic – he seemed to have another frame of reference, to come from another culture. Nonetheless, he had a mesmerizing effect on his followers. Hundreds of them broke down in tears at his public appearances and many behaved as if they were experiencing a religious awakening. Maybe they were. Some news anchors behaved the same way.
Beyond that, Obama was secretive . He wouldn’t release his birth certificate and when he finally did release it in the form of a pdf file on the internet, a number of forensic experts declared it a forgery .
He spoke of hope and promised to effect a profound change in American life. That promise was not an empty one. His first important act of office (apart from sending the bust of Winston Churchill back to the British government from its display in the White House) was to mount a blitzkrieg campaign to pass his signature legislation, Obamacare. The promise was that it would save every family $2500, that everyone could keep their doctors, everyone could keep their health plans “Period,” and30 million uninsured would get insurance.
Of course, none of that was true. What was true was that the entire scheme was impossible simply by way of the fact that adding 30 million people to an existing medical insurance structure cannot result in cost savings or the same quality service for the insured. And it has not. The scheme was a lie intended to obscure the fact that Obamacare is a socialized medicine scheme that is resulting in rationed care, death panels, and reduced service.
