Another Week In Obama's War On America
By Don Feder

Obama isn't at war with ISIS, the Taliban or the
Muslim Brotherhood. He's at war with the
Constitution, the middle class, and, ultimately,
with America.
For our president, the 2014 election was
liberating. There's no longer a need to pretend, for
the sake of his party, that he feels anything but
contempt for the nation he was elected to govern.
Last week was typical. On Monday, after a
grand jury refused to indict Officer Darren Wilson
for acting in self-defense, a mob once again
rampaged in Ferguson, Missouri. After mouthing a
regulation-issue call for calm, the president used
the mayhem to push his racist/redistributionist
agenda.
While there's no excuse for violence, "we
have to understand" the rage of the lynch mob, the
leader of the free world told us. "We need to
recognize that the situation in Ferguson (black
businesses burned to the ground) speaks to the
broader problems that we still face as a nation" –
like having a president who condones anarchy?
Obama insisted, "There are good people on
both sides of the debate" (who are the good people
who wanted to crucify a cop for doing his duty?) who
want to work with his administration in "much-needed
criminal justice reform" – including eliminating
mandatory minimum sentences and racial quotas for
traffic stops. Attorney General Eric Holder, who
never met a quota he didn't like, said Ferguson
shows the need for affirmative action in police
hiring.
The nation's felon-in-chief is in sync with
the petty criminals who loot liquor stores and shoot
at police cars. On November 5, he held a private
meeting at the White House with the most prominent
outside agitators, including Al Sharpton, who
disclosed: "Mr. Obama was concerned about Ferguson
staying on course in terms of pursuing what it was
he knew we were advocating."
The day before Ferguson again exploded, the
president gave a speech in Chicago attempting to
justify his latest lawlessness. It isn't enough for
him to amnesty five million illegal aliens in
violation of the Constitution, he has to rub our
noses in it.
In his latest bitter-clinger tirade, the
president told us that only Native Americans have a
right to complain about illegal immigration. Also,
concern about border security and national identity
are tribalism. "Sometimes we get attached to our
particular tribe, our particular race, our
particular religion, and then we start treating
folks differently... that sometimes has been the
bottleneck to how we think about immigration."
So, if you want to limit the influx of
illegals – if you're concerned about Americans
losing their jobs and criminals coming in with the
low-skilled workers – you're a racist pig.
Tribalism is okay when it's the Ferguson
mob demanding color-coded justice, but not for a
majority of Americans, of all races, who insist that
everyone obey the law and that people who want to
live in America actually become Americans.
Obama is using "executive amnesty" to help
obliterate our national identity.
He wants more and more people living and
voting in America who don't speak English, who don't
know our history, who care nothing for our
traditions, and who don't identify with America. If
they were Muslims too, it would be perfect. But he
can't have everything.
Providing illegals with services is also
essential, to make them docile clients of the
welfare state.
In an online chat with Hispanic bloggers
last week, Health and Human Services Secretary
Sylvia Mathews Burwell said we need to ensure that
the newly amnestied will enjoy a full range of
benefits "in every thing from health care to
economics to so many things."
She assured them that the administration
would not ask about their legal status. "Everyone
should come on, and folks should not be scared.
No questions will be asked and it is not about
an immigration issue." Remember 2009, when the
president guaranteed that illegal immigrants would
not benefit from Obamacare?
Everything about Obama's signature program
is a lie. Congress will have an opportunity to probe
the lies of MIT Professor Jonathan Gruber, architect
of Obamacare, when he testifies before a
Congressional panel on December 9.
In a video that recently surfaced, Gruber
sneered at "the stupidity of the American voter,"
for not realizing that Obamacare entailed tax hikes
and was, in reality, a giant transfer program –
moving income from the healthy to the sick and the
middle class to the president's beloved underclass,
including illegal aliens.
As he piled debt on Middle America (the
National Debt soared from $10.6 trillion to $17.9
trillion), he showers benefits on the dependent
class.
During Obama's first term, 11, 133
recipients were added to the food-stamp rolls
every day. Debt and dependency are the only
things that grow in Obama-land.
On his recent trip to China, the president
cut a deal designed to sacrifice American jobs and
income to meet the mythical threat of global
warming, while it gives an incredible advantage to
our chief competitor.
The United States will cut carbon emissions
by between 26% and 28% by 2025. China won't even
begin to do anything until 2030. Senator Mitch
McConnell correctly characterized the plan as
ensuring "higher utility rates and fewer jobs." For
Obama, those aren't unintended consequences, but
essential to his agenda.
Obama thinks the middle class is ignorant
and bigoted – a bunch of honky hicks despising
people who don't look like them, while they cling to
their guns and outmoded churches.
He believes America's success is built on
exploitation, at home and abroad. He wants to see
the U.S. emasculated militarily, our economy
crippled and the nation overrun with denizens of the
Third World, who have as much right to be here as
everyone but the Indians.
Everything the regime does is part of a
pattern. Didn't the lovely Madame Michelle Defarge
warn us of the coming cataclysm in 2008: "We're
going to have to change our traditions, our history;
we're going to have to move into a different place
as a nation." To accomplish this, her husband
promised to "fundamentally transform" America.
That's why in Obama-land America is no
longer a Christian nation (but Islam made important
contributions to our republic), business owners
aren't responsible for their success ("you didn't
build that"), those who've prospered by dint of hard
work don't pay their "fair share" of taxes, whites
must pay ad infinitum to right the scales of racial
justice, and that those whose families have worked,
fought and bled for this nation for generations have
no more right to be here than the hordes wading
across the Rio Grande.
Obama's ideological imperative even comes
into play in such unlikely areas as disease control
and Middle East policy.
Among his many accomplishments, Obama will
go down in history as the president who brought
Ebola to these shores, Instead of instituting a
travel ban on Ebola-ravaged West Africa, the
president brought patients here for treatment (at
taxpayers-expense) and sent our soldiers there to
empty bed pans and become infected themselves.
When he's not redistributing the wealth,
the president is redistributing the pain. Why should
Liberians suffer while Americans have the best
health care in the world – for the time being? We
need to be good citizens of the world and expose
ourselves to the most virulent plague of the 21st
century.
Every time the Palestinians commit another
atrocity, Obama plays the moral-equivalency card.
Three Jewish teenagers are kidnapped and
slaughtered and the president encourages "Israel and
the Palestinian Authority" to "refrain from steps
that could further destabilize the situation." In
Israel's case, that means seeking justice.
When three rabbis and another worshipper
are brutally murdered at prayer, Obama reminds us of
"Palestinian suffering," and calls on both sides –
the victims and the terrorists – to "work together
to lower tensions and reject violence."
As he views Ferguson and illegal
immigration through the lens of "racial justice,"
Obama sees Israel and the Palestinians as an
extension of the anti-colonial struggle which
consumed his father.
Israel is indicted for the same reason that
race riots are rationalized and those who care about
American identity are mocked.
There's a countdown clock in the Oval
Office which tells the president that he has (as of
this writing), 703 days, 12 hours, 15 minutes and so
many seconds left to (in words he used with a
Hispanic audience in 2012) "punish our enemies."
Will his enemies – the American people –
take it lying down.
