Trust Him Not

President Obama's Green Jobs Czar, Van Jones, resigned after he was exposed as, at least he used to be, a self-avowed Communist and a 9/11 Truther. While resigning his office he claimed he was a victim of a smear campaign by the right wing. Funny, all I ever saw was him speaking in his own words claiming that white people sent poison to the poor black and Hispanic neighborhoods. No one rearranged any of his statements or took them out of context. No smear campaign to be found anywhere.

President Obama's Information and Regulatory Affairs Czar, Cass Sundstein, has stated his opinion that animals should have the right to sue in court. I can't think of anything to respond to that! He also believes hunting should be banned.

President Obama's new FCC Diversity Czar, Mark Lloyd, has stated his dismay at the US past actions of thwarting Hugo Chavez in his attempts to take over the media in Venezuela and continue his socialistic takeover of that country. He also has railed against the imbalance of opinion on the evil "talk radio".

President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton have expressed their support for ousted Honduras leader, Manuel Zelaya, without regard for the Honduras Constitution which states that no person may change their Constitution to allow themselves to be president more than one elected term. The Honduran Supreme Court ordered his arrest on June 28, 2009. After all, what is a Constitution anyway? Just something else to be ignored when it does not fit your aims.

President Obama canceled the proposed missile shield in Eastern Europe for purposes of defense of Poland and The Czech Republic, among other countries, on the very anniversary of Russia's 70th anniversary of their invasion of Poland leading up to World War II. Such timing is inexcusable and par for the course for this administration.

Candidate Obama promised that he would not raise taxes on Americans earning less than $250,000 even by one dime. That's the same dime he promised would cause him to veto any National Health Care reform bill, if that dime spent was more than the Health Bill budgeted. One of his and Congress' first acts was to raise the federal taxes on cigarettes, which disproportionally affect people earning less than $250,000 a year. This Health Care fiasco has the potential to raise everyone's taxes by much more than one dime.

President Obama went on the Sunday news programs and stated that forcing every American to buy Health Insurance or face penalties from the Federal Government can not be called a tax. He even made fun of George Stephanopoulis for resorting to his dictionary to look up the definition of "tax", a sum of money demanded by a government for its support or for specific facilities or services, levied upon incomes, property, sales, etc. Sure sounds like a tax to me. Do you think Americans will silently allow the government to force them to buy health insurance. Does anyone in Washington ever even think about the Constitution anymore?

The House of Representatives passd an energy bill this summer, the Waxman-Markey Energy Bill aka, Cap and Trade, which is the government's misguided attempt to play in the global warming arena. This ridiculous attempt to control business through the use of energy will cost Americans plenty of money. Does President Obama think this qualifies as a tax?

President Obama also told George Stephanopoulis that the ACORN mess is not something he has followed closely. He says he wasn't aware that ACORN even got much federal funding. Seriously? Obama was weaned by ACORN. He was their lawyer. He worked for their Project Vote Campaign. He was a proud community organizer for ACORN before he got involved in politics. He told ACORN folks that they would have a seat at the table in his administration so that he could use their ideas in setting his agenda. President Obama has a short and convenient memory.

President Obama once stated that he wasn't interested in probing the previous administration and their efforts to fight terrorism in regards to potential abuses of terrorists housed at Guatanamo
. He was actually against the investigation before he was for it, because now he has decided to let Attorney General, Eric Holder, go ahead and appoint a special prosecutor to look into possible CIA abuse. Even after seven prior CIA directors sent him a letter asking him to stop the investigation, he says he backs Holder's decision.

President Obama said shortly before the November election that we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America. Well, this is one promise that he didn't shy away from. He is certainly hell-bent on fundamentally transforming America. But what that fundamental change is doing to this country is something I would rather not be a part of in any way, shape or form.

President Obama, I trust you not!

OH
