America -- What Have You Done?

by Malanie Phillips - February 7th, 2009 - Spectator

In foreign policy, Obama has started by trashing his own country through grossly misrepresenting its history and grovelling to America’s enemies such as Iran, which has flicked him aside with undiluted contempt. He has gratuitously upset America’s ally India by suggesting that America should muscle in and resolve the Kashmir question.

I have argued before however that, given Obama’s radical roots in the neo-Marxist, nihilist politics of Saul Alinsky, it is the undermining of America’s fundamental values that is likely to be this President’s most strategically important goal. I have also suggested that, since this agenda is promoted through stealth politics which gull the credulous middle-classes while destroying the ground upon which they are standing, his second-tier appointments should be closely scrutinised.

It is almost laughable to watch the Democrats grovel in front of our enemies and embarrass themselves in front of the world. Our enemies are delighted with Barack Obama at the helm.

Republican leaders were some of those gulled by Obama. Many of them thought that because a few of his appointments were not EXTREME liberals, that maybe he wouldn't be so bad. How naive.

I cannot help but laugh at the shambles Obama has made of his early steps. I never thought that he was the Magic Marxist Messiah that the proclaimed himself. I never thought that the naive among his followers would stay enchanted. This is the time for laughter. Soon will come the time for fighting.

The socialist tyranny he is selling, where the poor in America take our wealth and spread it around, will not end the desire by external forces to take our wealth for themselves and spread it around. The illusion by both these internal and external forces that wealth just exists and is not created assures, that they will soon be fighting each other as furiously as they fight against America.

There will be time enough for that fight. For 4 years Obama is a reality we must deal with. Let us pray there is still a nation, and a Western culture, left to fight for when that 4 years is over.
