President Barack Flip-Flop Obama

The President of the United States of America is the laughing stock of the free (and oppressed) world. Somehow, as everyday passes we get a better glimpse of the joke that the American people were duped into believing, and his arrogance and naivetĂ© becomes more of his legacy than any pseudo policy of change. Unless of course you believe that change for a weaker nation is change for the better.

In the previous weeks Obama was disgustingly silent on the issues surrounding the democratic freedoms of millions of Iranians who were being beaten, killed and silenced because of their vocal and peaceful opposition to an authoritarian government. To this the POTUS, defended his silence and lack of support by explaining that "we shouldn't meddle in the affairs of sovereign nations". Then this week he officially called for the reinstatement of Honduaran President Manuel Zelaya who was ousted by the Honduran military after both the Congress and the Supreme Court nullified an illegal referendum in which the president wanted to change the nations constitution to include ending presidential term limits. Sounds oddly familiar, Venezuela and Hugo Chavez, anyone!? So much for not meddling in the affairs of sovereign nations Mr. Obama. 

The silence of Obama on a movement for freedom, and his contrasting reaction to the Honduran incident are very indicative of the ideologies he holds. It wouldn't be a far stretch point out that our president has more Marxist notions than we thought. I hope--love using that word when speaking of "the one"--and pray that his reactions to these two defining incidents are not suggestive of what is to come for America. 

Adolf Hitler was a democratically elected president who with the severe manipulation of the German democracy, the silencing and eventual banning (sounds like the Fairness Doctrine!) of opposing parties views, along with the  Enabling Act and the Reichstag Fire Decree, voided presidential term limits and gained totalitarian control of a democracy and the rest is history. 

Speaking of history, here is the only lesson we ever really learn: Those who ignore history are bound to repeat it.
