Mychal Massie: If The Company Barack Obama Has Kept (as in the dirt he has aligned himself with) Doesn't Tell You He Is A Marxist Reparationist - Then Listen To The Words From His Mouth

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Barack Obama's Marxism keeps coming up more often these days, as the real Obama has begun to emerge through the cover provided him by the Obama-fawning mainstream media.

Today, Mychal Massie writes at WNT that one of many sayings he remembers from his grandmother is, "If the hiss doesn't tell you it's a snake, then the fact that it slithers on its belly in the dirt should." And to that point, he says that if the company Barack Obama has kept (read the dirt he has aligned himself with) doesn't tell you he is a Marxist reparationist, then the words from his mouth, i.e., his hiss, certainly should:

[...] Obama repeatedly told the NAACP, "I've been working my entire adult life to help build an America where 'economic justice' is being served. And as president, we'll ensure that 'economic justice' is served. That's what this election is about." ("Barack Obama's Stealth Socialism," Investor's Business Daily, July 28, 2008.)

"Economic justice" is just an oblique euphemism for wealth redistribution, i.e., Marxism - "from each according to their ability, to each according to their need." IBD theorizes Obama's intent is a massive transfer of wealth from those who have money to those whom he defines as poor. Worse, he views it as a global obligation.

... John Furman, Obama's director of economic policy, explains that Obama is advocating for "bottom-up economic growth." He contends, "If we invest in our families and in ordinary Americans, by helping them go to college, with tax cuts for 95 percent of families to reward them for hard work, and give tax cuts to help them save for retirement - such are the ways everyone can have a stake in our economy." He argues that said actions will result in stronger economic growth.

... This is a specious construct steeped in Marxism.

[...] Obama purposes to penalize people of all industries, from landscapers to administrators, for daring to be even moderately successful. And by his economic policy adviser's own admission, it is because we take advantage of "tax cuts and deductions" available to every working person industrious enough to reap the rewards of their labors.

It's not about people being left out; for Obama, it's about American wealth, which he views as being in the hands of white capitalists and, therefore, wrongly obtained. His veiled racist and Marxist leanings blind him to the reality that, as the Wall Street Journal pointed out, in 1980, when the top income rate was 70 percent, the richest 1 percent paid only 19 percent of all income taxes - today they pay 39 percent of all income taxes. ("Taxes and Income," Wall Street Journal, Dec. 17, 2007.)

Obama is on record as saying, "We [Americans] can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to be OK. That's not leadership. That's not going to happen." ("Obama's Global Tax," Investor's Business Daily, July 29, 2008.)

Continue reading Obama's hissing.

As Massie, himself a Black American, says of Obama's candidacy: "We don't need a black man to be president so badly that it forces us to take leave of our senses. We need a man (or woman) president who is pro-America, pro her citizens, is committed to our Constitution and pro-traditional values."

In other Obama-related news, Michelle Obama is already "measuring the White House drapes" - "Michelle Obama says her overriding role will be to serve as "mom-in-chief" to her and her husband Barack's two young daughters when -- not if -- they enter the White House. (Pardon my being a bit judgemental, but isn't this rather "trashy" and presumptuous?)
