Re: The stormy opposition to Obama

Socialist-marxist health care plan a transparent bid to exterminate blacks (courtesy of Glenn Beck's show):

It appears Fox News host Glenn Beck has found an unlikely ally — an African-American preacher who peddles conspiracy theories about a white plot to exterminate black people.

Beck gave airtime Monday to Dallas-area pastor Stephen Broden, who argued that the health reform bill being debated in Congress will lead to a campaign to exterminate black people in America.

On Fox News’ Glenn Beck, Broden plugged a documentary, Maafa 21, that claims the pro-choice movement, and Planned Parenthood in particular, is part of a 150-year-old plot to exterminate the African-American race.

“Slavery = Abortion = Genocide — that seems to be the message of this Life Dynamics documentary called Maafa 21,” the Right Wing Watch blog sums up.

“What’s going on in that documentary is what’s going to happen in the health care package,” Broden told Glenn Beck.

“I believe what we’re seeing is an orchestrated attempt to radically change this country from what the founders had in mind,” Broden said. “There is a deliberate attempt on the part of Marxist, socialist and … Darwin atheists who are changing this country.”

...

Broden’s theory, via Maafa 21, has made its way into the fringes of conservative thought. In July, Arizona House Rep. Trent Franks cited the film as evidence that abortion is a racist plot.

Maafa 21 “does an excellent job of documenting the prominent role racism played in bringing about abortion-on-demand in the United States, as former slave owners and elites turned to eugenics as a means of keeping minorities underfoot,” Franks wrote in a response to remarks by Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. The retired justice had argued that access to abortions for low-income women is limited.

Even civil rights activists have been swept up in the theory’s unlikely blend of race issues and abortion. Alveda C. King, niece of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., plugged the movie in a Washington Times op-ed last month.

Broden, who is African-American, also had praise for the occasionally race-baiting Beck.

“Do you think I have it right that these are Marxist radicals that have positions of tremendous power?”

“You are dead on, and unfortunately you are the only voice in the marketplace, in the public square, that is raising the red flag,” Broden said.

Re: The stormy opposition to Obama

Right here. I got a book here called the U.S.S. Constitution. I’m sure everybody’s seen this before. And you know what? I’ve this book three times now, and I’ve referenced it dozens of times and I can’t find one little paragraph in here that says the government has the right to take over our health care.

Youtube.

Love that book, the U.S.S. Constitution.

OpSail was founded by President Kennedy in 1961, when he invited tall ships at home and abroad to take part in the World's Fair in New York in 1964. Since then, the president and the U.S. Congress have invited tall ships from all over the world to take part in Operation Sail for such historic events as the 1976 U.S. bicentennial; the Statue of Liberty centennial in 1986; the quincentennial celebration of Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1992 and now, in 2000, the millennium celebration.

"Florida GOP: Keep Obama Out of Our Schools!"

[FL GOP Spokesperson] Gordon stood by the party's press release -- and said that children should not be subjected to what she said is a clear attempt at political indoctrination by the Obama administration. Indeed, she said parents should be able to opt-out their kids from the speech.

Think of the children !


Jesus said to the servants, "Fill the jars with water"; so they filled them to the brim.  Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet."  They did so, and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew.

Worse- the Commie Marxist-Leninists are backing the Tea-Partiers! eek

22:58 12/09/2009
WASHINGTON, September 12 (RIA Novosti) - Thousands of people took part in a demonstration in Washington on Saturday, protesting against U.S. President Barack Obama's economic policy, RIA Novosti correspondent reported.

Washington residents and protesters from other U.S. regions marched along central Pennsylvania avenue to the U.S. Congress building. The FreedomWorks organization, fighting for tax cuts and against government interference in the economy, took the lead in the demonstration, supported by many other public organizations.

"I do not understand why my family has to put its hardly earned money into saving of some automobile companies or into the health reform, if it will cost us more that we pay now for medical insurance," one of the protesters said.

The protesters are carrying posters, which say "Obama's care makes me sick", "I am not your bank machine", and scream out slogans against the U.S. president, Speaker of the States House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi and U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner.

The demonstrarion in Washington completes a bus protest tour across 34 U.S. cities and towns, which started in late August in California's capital of Sacramento. The action is called the Tea Party Movement, intended to remind the Boston Tea Party in 1773, held by colonists in Boston, in the British colony of Massachusetts.

On December 16, 1773, after officials in Boston refused to return three shiploads of taxed tea to Britain, a group of colonists boarded the ships and destroyed the tea by throwing it into Boston Harbor. The incident has often been referenced in tax connected political protests.

Thousands condemn U.S. economic policy at Washington Tea Party

How American can it be, if an official Russian news reporting site endorses it?

Teabag Party Movement is Un-American! My country, love it or leave it for Russia!! :shakefist:

Actually, they fell and now they are rising.  In fact they're about the same as when elected in November.

Re: The stormy opposition to Obama

Tom Shaller (who I think I recently disparaged around here) writing on FiveThirtyEight thinks these teabagging DC marchers are Ron Paul supporters.

I think he might be onto something. (openly contradicting my own previous statements here.)

Limbaugh pretty much purposely misunderstands American history and the legacy of race in this country. He's uncomfortable with the truth so it's easier to spin history on its head.

Re: The stormy opposition to Obama

There was an article in the local rag about the 50th reunion of a HS class. Pre-integration, it was the first HS for any blacks in the city/town. Run by parents.

There were tales from the alums that had them crossing streets behind Coke trucks to not be noticed. Or attacked.

other:

illiston Senior High School closed in 1968 when Wilmington schools integrated, but the class of 1959, celebrating its 50th reunion in October, treasures their memories and their alma mater’s legacy.

Buckhanan pointed to a photo on the wall of the Williston Auditorium at the Cape Fear Museum where alumni groups meet. The class in the photo became the teachers, she said, who taught the teachers who taught the class of 1959.

Williston’s history dates back to Reconstruction and follows through into the Civil Rights Era. Originally an American Missionary Association school offering uplift to ex-slaves, Williston became accredited as a high school in the early part of the 20th century, graduating its first class in 1923.

“Teachers and principal were the students’ parents,” said Buckhanan, formerly Barden, explaining reasons Williston students had such strong support.

Of their class of 216, 186 graduated, said Robert Thomas, reunion committee vice president. More than half went to college, added Johnson, formerly Sampson, and many of the men went into the armed forces.

“Failure was not an option,” said Buckhanan. “Our parents were those people that worked in homes, you know, cleaned someone’s home or something. So you didn’t have that excuse about I don’t have any money to go, because the money came from somewhere for you to go.”
