CANCER FROM WITHIN THY NAME BE OBAMA

Submitted by: Lady E

Some thing for ALL of us to think about.
All it takes for evil to thrive is for good men to do nothing.
This past July, we had the pleasure of sharing a summer barbecue with a refugee from Cuba .
Our dinner conversation was starkly different than most.
This refugee came to the United States as a young boy in the early 1960s.
His family was more fortunate than most as they were able to bring a suitcase and $100
when they fled Castro's newly formed revolutionary paradise.
Our dinner consisted of all-American fare:
hamburgers, potato salad, watermelon and fresh ears of sweet corn.
This is a menu shared with family and friends nationwide, while celebrating the
birth of our beloved America on the Fourth of July.
We began with a simple discussion about our country and the direction it has
taken since Barack Obama came to power.
We shared the usual complaints about the sour economy and liberal social
engineering emanating from the rulers in Washington .
But then he said it.
The sentence came naturally.
I assume it was unplanned.
But it carried the weight of a freight train.
"You know when Castro took power, none of us knew he was a Communist."
We sat stunned.
He continued, "Yes, we all thought he was a patriot, a nationalist.
Before the revolution he didn't sound like a radical."
The comparison at this point was easy, and I interjected,
"You mean just like Barack Obama?"
He responded, "Yes, just like Barack Obama."
He continued, "We were all shocked as the government just continued to grab
more power.
First they said the revolution is over, so please turn in your guns. We all complied."
"I remember my uncle saying after it started, 'Castro will only nationalize some of the
big industries, he will never come and take our family hardware store.'
But that is exactly what happened, Castro started with the sugar mills and
the large industries, but they eventually came and knocked on the door of
our family hardware store. My family had run this store for generations.
They said we now own the hardware store, you work for us. And that nice,
large four-bedroom home you own, it is now our property also, and you can
move yourself and five children into two rooms of the house because others
are moving in with you."
The lesson learned from this discussion is a lesson most Americans refuse to
hear. Political leaders can lie about their agenda and once in office they can
take totally unexpected turns.
If you had asked us three years ago if we thought General Motors would be
nationalized, we would have never believed it. We could never contemplate a
country where the rule of law, the most fundamental building block of a
justice society would be evaporating just like it did in Castro's Cuba in the early 1960s.
But the news of injustice keeps increasing.

The bondholders of GM are stripped of their assets without due process by the government.
Governmental leaders are bribed in full daylight only to have all investigation of the crimes stifled by the Attorney General.
The U.S. borders are overrun with crime and illegal activity and the leaders
in D.C. act as if it is important to protect the lawbreakers while the innocent are killed and overrun.
When local communities attempt to enforce the law, they are ridiculed and threatened as racists and bigots.
They are sued by the very administration entrusted with enforcing the law.
Without the rule of law the U.S. Constitution is a sham.
Without the rule of law our beloved America is swiftly becoming a country where only the well connected and politically powerful will be safe.
As Michelle Malkin has so eloquently explained in her recent book,
a culture of corruption has replaced honest government.
The only way this problem will be fixed is by massive citizen action.
All honest citizens that want to be treated equally must come together and demand that the favoritism, the bribes, the uneven enforcement of law end now.
And yes, it can happen here.
* A year ago I made the statement that "I didn't believe the President knows what he is doing."
My friend said "Oh yes he does".
Back then I didn't know what she meant.
Today I realize she was right. He does know exactly what he is doing.*

And may God save the United States of America !
