Barack Obama once had the audacity to say to small business owners, “If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that!”
Barack, you did not build this great country which has stood as a beacon for freedom and opportunity for many decades. In fact, your wife was never proud of America until you became a Presidential candidate! Perhaps she doesn’t understand that it was Africa’s black kings who sold their own citizens into slavery. Maybe she forgets that it was American families who endured the death of 600,000 to rid our country of slavery, while many countries to this day hold slaves. Republican President Abraham Lincoln freed those slaves and Republicans passed most civil rights laws prior to 1960, including their right to vote – with few Democrats joining them. It was Democrats who comprised the despised KKK.
Perhaps Michelle cut classes when they were describing the amazing efforts of America’s military and citizens in defeating Hitler, saving the world, freeing those who were in concentration camps and then rebuilding their countries. Or perhaps that was no longer being taught in school. Perhaps she is unaware of the fact that it is America which goes to the rescue of any country devastated by nature, even those of our enemies.
American businesses have led the world in innovation and have provided our hard-working citizens the opportunity to rise from poverty to success. Those are just some of the things that have always made me proud.
Obama did not personally endanger himself to write the Constitution he disdains, nor the Bill of Rights, as did our Founding Fathers. Obama did nothing to actually earn the Peace Prize other than spout platitudes of hope, peace and understanding. He then proceeded to admit that he personally oversees his own “kill list” for choosing whom the military should kill each week.
Here are some things Obama DID build: Obamacare; a government full of his radical Progressive friends; a policy which sugar-coats the threat of Al Quada, ISIS, radical Islam and Ebola; an increase of 11% of those unemployed, with the lowest Job Participation Rate in decades; speech designed to divide Americans from one another, promoting envy and hatred; and a valid challenge to Richard Nixon’s Enemy List, for one via his website for turning in fellow citizens who have “lied” about Obamacare. On the first day of that one, I wrote that I had found a liar – Barack Obama. I’m sure I’m on his list.
He has made our borders porous, agreed to a quarter of a million (by 2016) unaccompanied minors from Central America to be spread out across our country (along with the diseases they bring); he has plans to offer Visas with Work Permits to millions of illegals by Executive Order after this election, at a time when American young people have an unemployment rate of 15%. He has overseen an Administration which is totally against voters having to prove they are who they say they are, and that they are American citizens. Anything to gain more Democrat voters is their motto.
He has built an America which is uncertain about its future under his guidance, an America which is afraid to expand her businesses or hire more employees due to that uncertainty. He is an American who is proud to put coal miners and oil drillers out of business so that we must continue to buy oil from our enemies.
He has benefited from a media who were for many reasons his campaign workers in their efforts to get him reelected. He has built a system of cronyism wherein 80% of Stimulus funds were given to his donors and Democrats.
At least five of his government departments are scandal-ridden: DOJ, DOD, IRS, VA, and NSA. Progressives have taught white privilege and victimhood in public schools for years, exacerbating racial division. Obama has perfected a system which rewards his friends and demonizes those who disagree with his agenda and policies, claiming racism as his opponents’ motivation, even though he is half white and was twice elected.
These are the things you and Democrats have built, Mr. President, and America is all the worse because of them. Only 27% of registered Republicans bothered to vote in the last mid-term election. It is time to change that! Go out and vote!
