Obama Exploits Tucson Deaths for Political Pep Rally

On January 12, 2010, Barack Obama committed the most disgusting (known) act of his presidency so far. During a memorial service for the innocent people killed by left-wing occultist, Jared Loughner, Barack Obama gave what sounded like a subdued campaign speech. Rather than honor the victims and their families, Obama chose to shift much of the focus to himself.

During the oddly branded event, "Together We Thrive: Tucson & America," Obama mentioned himself and his feelings far too often, pandered to the crowd, and blamed political critics for the deaths. He managed to appear very creepy with a stunning lack of emotion and heart. His numerous pauses for applause showed a tremendous amount of arrogance.

What was with the applause, anyway? Didn't these classless morons in the audience know it is almost never appropriate to clap at a memorial service? Maybe they were excited by all of the Democrat blue ""Together We Thrive" T-shirts they got for free. Memorials are for the victims and their families only. These situations should never be used for self-promotion and political posturing. The whole display was simply disgusting.

Obama Administration Resorts to Unhealthy Tactics to Chill Socialized Medicine Debate

In a 6:55AM post on August 4, 2009, Macon Philips, The White House Director of New Media, used the official White House Blog to ask people to rat out their fellow US citizens who are disseminating unfavorable information about Obama's plans for socialized medicine. The post, titled "Facts Are Stubborn Things," urges people who receive or see negative information about Obama's government-run health care initiative that seems "fishy" to report this information directly to the White House by forwarding the critical material to flag@whitehouse.gov.

This means that your tax dollars are being used to monitor and review the way you and other private citizens choose to use the right of free speech. What do you suppose the White House plans to do with the information they collect? Why did they use "flag" in the email address? What happens if you are "flagged" by the White House? Will they investigate those who are speaking out against socialized medicine? Will Obama call them in for questioning? Will Obama order the dissenters be put on some sort of a watch list?

This is a tactic that was used in the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. Since the government cannot possibly keep tabs on everything said by every dissenter, they employ private citizens to spy on their neighbors. This is a creepy and disturbing move by the White House. Have we learned nothing from history? Perhaps, Chairman Obama has learned plenty.

Fashion by Marx

Marcus Marx was one of the early owners of Hart Schaffner & Marx (Hartmarx). This is the company who designed Obama’s Election Day victory speech suit. Do not miss the irony that our new Socialist President was dressed by a Marx the day he was elected.
