How GOP Bigots Scapegoat Obama

by Len Hart, The Existentialist Cowboy

Hitler scapegoated jews! The American right wing now scapegoats Obama! Why are we surprised? The GOP/right wing is just doing what psychopathic screw-ups and habitual liars always do. They try to find someone else to blame.

Obama is an easy target! Because Obama is black the GOP can depend on getting the support of bigots without ever having to use that 'n' word themselves. They keep their collars lily white even as their motives are of darkest night! Their plans are drawn up on K-street; they don't have to get their hands dirty. Leave that to the rank and file bigots.

In response to my previous post, Noor al Haqiqa wrote:
That is probably one of the saddest vids [The Eagles, Last Resort] I have seen for awhile. Not because I don't delve into the mire a little too often, but because so much of that is part of my life. ...there are times I just want to hate the perpetrators of this situation, but I cannot for to do so would be giving them what they want ~ my soul.
I hear you. I am descended of Native Americans whom I believe were and would have been better stewards of this continent. At the same time, I am also descended of hard working Irish and Scottish immigrants who only wanted a chance in life. For many years --until the British lost the so-called 'Revolutionary War' --Native Americans and the new settlers lived peaceably. Several Native American chieftains were admitted to the Court of St James --Thayendanegea (Joselph Brant) most notably. Pocahontas, the Indian princess who helped the English colonists in Jamestown, Virginia, is buried in a churchyard in Gravesend, England. She died there in 1617 while trying to make her way back to her beloved native land --America.

I have often tried to fix a date on which we have all become pilgrims, the date on which we all lost 'our country'! What was the tipping point? When did we lose our grip? When did we find our 'Gravesend'? When did we lose our way among strangers?

I often recall the moment I witnessed in Houston's Jones Hall when amid thunderous applause Dan Rather introduced himself to a news conference attended by the media executives from across the nation. "Are you running for something," President Richard M. Nixon, already besieged by Watergate, asked Rather.

"No, Mr President!" Rather responded, "Are you?"

But it wasn't Watergate! We overcame and rose above Watergate. It was an old 'Western' in which the 'good guys' won. They did win, didn't they?

It was Reagan!

It was Reagan who finished the job. It was Reagan who stole the wealth of the nation and gave it to elites who did not produce it, did not deserve it and did nothing to earn it. The money changers were not driven from the temple. The temple was stolen by them. They call it the 'Fed'.

It was Reagan who pandered to ignorance, bigotry, hate, and prejudice. He could afford to pander; he was financed by a 'ruling elite', now just one percent of the entire population. It was Reagan who made psychopaths feel good about being psychopaths. It was Reagan who sold out America, broke the back of labor and exported U.S. industry and jobs to Japan and China.

Because of trends begun by Reagan, the U.S. is now at the very bottom of the CIA's 'World Fact Book' with the world's largest Negative Current Account Balance, formerly called the 'balance of trade deficit'. At the very top --with the world's largest positive Current Account Balance --is China to whom we have now exported our wealth. But because China must prop up the buck in order to sell to us via Wal-Mart, we would already be prostrate and penniless.

It was Reagan and the psychopathic ilk who followed him blindly over the cliff. It was the neo-imperialists, parasitic partners of the Military-Industial Complex, who dared dream of empire in the PNAC document: REBUILDING AMERICA’S DEFENSES Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century [PDF]. It was these neo-imperialists, called NECONS, who pined for a new a 'catalyzing event', a new 'Pearl Harbor', that would be exploited to justify a campaign of aggressive wars, in fact, war crimes punishable by death even under U.S. Codes, Title 18, Section 2441.

(a) Offense.— Whoever, whether inside or outside the United States, commits a war crime, in any of the circumstances described in subsection (b), shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for life or any term of years, or both, and if death results to the victim, shall also be subject to the penalty of death.
A so-called Neo-conservative movement 'Kristolized' in the 1960s, an obvious knee-jerk over-reaction to what was called a 'radical cultural revolution' that was perceived to have been taking place in the United States. Others just called it the 'Woodstock Generation'. Irving Kristol wrote: "If there is any one thing that neoconservatives are unanimous about, it is their dislike of the counter-culture."

It is frightening to think that the US may now be poised on the brink of collapse because stuffed-shirts like William Kristol were hopelessly, awkwardly square, had never smoked a joint, and thought Woodstock was a little cartoon bird!

America might still change but only after it has had a sea change of heart and mind. But until wealth inequality is addressed, the media returned to the people and the anti-American-anti-Constitution imperialists tried for war crimes and mass murder, nothing will change for the better. A drunk who will not recognize his problem is just a hopeless drunk, a 'druggie' a hopeless druggie and a thief will steal again if he thinks he can get away with it.

There are no quick fixes and I expected none from Obama. He is just a man --not a miracle worker. And it requires a miracle to save us from the pox that has been visited upon us by the real 'enemy'. It was Pogo who deplored the waste dumped in his swampland home and said: "The enemy is us!" Pogo was right!

Hi Len, smiles.

This is not the Canada my ancestors have been creating for the past 11 generations either. I cannot figure out quite when we lost our way although most blame Mulroney with the Free Trade Deal. I think it goes farther back than that.

I personally believe it began in the U.S. once the Rothschilds and their agents got their greasy filthy fat banker fingers into your nation and began genociding the native peoples. But even before the Rothschilds they were settled and owning the tobacco and sugar businesses having come over with Columbus, so who can say?

They were well ensconced by the time they had the Civil War brought into being. They never let up over the years, moving step by step through their minions taking and stealing more. David Icke calls it the totalitarian tip toe. Two steps forward, one step back, over and over again so the gains are made in slow increments.

But once they took the Federal Reserve, they increased the speed of their greed and games. Ever watchful, they had to twist the people until each specific step could be taken, whether it be another depression, war, or major social manipulation.

We Christian or Catholic whites are raised to trust or turn the other cheek, a sure guarantee that we could not even know what was being done because we are not, by nature, on the whole, so devious and dark as the oppressors. Indeed, few can even believe these evils are possible. But they do not know the darkness we deal with. That is one of the problems we have in getting through to the majority with the truths as we see them.

After JFK Busch Daddy got into government and things accelerated. With Maggie Thatcher and Reagan it all hit a whirlwind pace. The two nations are so intertwined that, even though the US is not part of the small "c" commonwealth, it might as well be.

My readings by Henry Ford and Elizabeth Dilling and of course Eustace along with just having lived through it ~ Jack Berenstein and Harold Rosenthal and others, well what frightens me is how these people have been sending out warnings for over 100 years and citizens are even blinder now than they were back then! Of course the development of consumerism, television, and mind control come into play in that regard.

As for Reagan, I remember reading somewhere that he napped every afternoon. We all know he was not the sharpest pencil in the box, just the brightest cheeriest colour. It was Daddy Busch who did a lot of work while Ronnie slept and he got a lot done at that time.

Both Ronnie and Maggie were on the same schedule and did the same damage to their respective nations. Since Busch Daddy got in... it has been a whirlwind downhill slide for you. And also for England with that political whore Blair.

Me, naive Canuck, did not realize how bad it was here until Gaza last winter and I began to look at our military past and, learn about the doings of our past PMs in the MK ultra scandals.

Obama. How could anyone expect anything from a man as substantial as a lip of blank paper? A man trained by maggot-ridden Kissinger and Zbigniew Brzezinski? How I cried when I saw Harlem celebrating "their victory". He has surpassed my expectations of treachery, as has our Harper up in Canada.

Pffft enough already! I think I will go and watch a soap opera and see what life is like for real Americans!

Re:

This is the aspect with which I am most familiar and, in fact, covered some of it as a young journalist. The role of Bush Sr., for example, is little understood and that is by design. It was Bush Sr who went to China to lay the groundwork for the Nixon visit to follow. It was the Senior Bush, I believe, who is ultimately responsible for the fact that the U.S. is now but a vassal state of China. The deals were being cut and Nixon's visit was largely ceremonial. You may have seen my earlier article on that topic. Unfortunately, I was not nearly as aggressive in pursuing the truth of the matter when I interview Bush Sr about that. I plead youth and inexperience. Learning the truth about what had been done our nation, indeed, the world, is a long and arduous journey.

There are still wild things said about Busch...some not safe to repeat ! The Secret Behind the Sanctions post at Common Dreams started me thinking about control over necessities of life : the basic tool of slavery: whether salt, water,food, land or shelter.
The Amish are now being forced to comply with NAIS over their religious objections.
But I had a nice Thanksgiving letter from a shaman and thought I would share

You may or may not have heard the worst. Here is a SHORT list:

Bush Sr was a spook for the CIA was most certainly involved in effort to trick Cuba into providing a pretext for an invasion.

Bush Sr is clearly identifiable hanging around the TSBD on Nov 22, 1963. He was 'control' making sure all his operatives were in place. They were --including LHO who was intended to take the rap. The real shooter used a .222 and fired from the Grassy Knoll --the ONLY logical shot. The result is seen in Z 313. The real killer just broke down his weapon, put it in a brief case and blended into the crowd still fixated with events in the opposite direction. His very crime afforded him the oppt'y to just walk away.

Bush Sr was up to his neck in Iran/Contra and the treasonous deal to release U.S. hostages on the very day of Reagan's oath of office, as I recall.

Bush Sr was involved in making harmful concessions to China --a nation to which we are but a vassal.

Bush Sr's hand can be seen in lesser known scandals in Houston, of which I will write one day.

Bush Sr is, arguably owned by the Saudi Royal family, which visited Houston a bit over two years ago. There was NO media coverage of it. But I saw them up close and personal at the Four Seasons in downtown Houston. They had booked several spotless limos.

Bush Sr's hand in 911 is a little more difficult to ferret out. One thing is certain: 911 was an inside job. The official theory is BULLSHIT for which there is NO evidence at all, let alone CONVINCING evidence. No airliner struck the Pent, 'drones' (or something similar) struck the towers, NO PLANE struck WTC 7 but it collapsed on cue and the result was the same: Silverstein gets a HUGE INSURANCE PAY OFF to compensate him having been so fuckin cooperative.

During that terrible day, a backhoe was digging a ditch in a field in PA. Not far away, all the passengers from the the flights had been loaded on an airiner --Flt 93 if it really matters. That flight was exploded in MID-AIR by US fired MISSILE.

There is NOT a scrap of wreckage at the PA 'crash' site, not a scrap of wreckage traceable to an airliner of any sort at the Pentagon.

HIGH TREASON! MASS MURDER! DOMESTIC TERRORISM!

Contrary to 'un'-informed opinion, there is enough verifiable evidence in the public record to make the case of HIGH TREASON and MASS MURDER now.

I wish to hell someone, somewhere would make it!

Are there no judges with balls?

Are there absolutely no Grand Jury that may bring these indictments?

Should the trials ever take place, the culprits should be EXECUTED promptly upon being convicted!

Criminal indictments?
It is a puzzlement.
I do not remember the numbers,a large majority of U.S. citizens do not believe the Warren Report about the murder of J.F.K. After 46 years this case is still off limits to any and all seeking to find out and reveal just what the hell happened.
It's like the mob is in control, and the real message is,"Whadda you gonna do aboud it?"
So many dead witnesses, so much "lost" evidence, it smells worse than last weeks fish, yet, nothing will be done by any in a position of authority.
Some I have discussed these issues with go on autopilot when a myth is questioned. They fall back upon how "complicated" it is and how "experts" must be trusted to do their jobs. My rejoinder is that these "experts" have been doing their jobs for sixty years or more, and the fog of fear is solid, baby.
These people have IQs which are above their body temperature, some can quote sports statistics for every team reaching back to the creation.
Fear stops them, self regulating double think which is the inner policeman of acceptable thinking.
To admit that something is very wrong brings discomfort and a moral push to search for justice. To rock the boat in this manner is simply too dangerous to the isolated individual without a real community.
Once again, good work, Cowboy!

Don, you will find some articles on the cowboy re: the JFK murder.

I think I know who pulled it off but I can PROVE it wasn't Oswald that did it.

Browse the current articles. I have some updating to do, in any cas --so stay tuned!

It is a mob of sorts but much worse, much, much more malevolent than the Mafia could have ever conceived of.

The 'mob' in this case is allied with the NEOCONS. It is an OCTOPUS that had has infiltrated and taken over the MIC, K-street and thus the US government. It is composed of 'ruling elites' --just one percent of the U.S. population --and they both benefit and control FOR their benefit the apparatus of US government. The MIC is but their military 'arm', as the Praetorian Guard was to the Emperors.

The GOP doesnt have to do much to dirty soon to be one hit wonder snobama. His promises have proven to be empty rhetoric and his opportunity to leave a meaningful legacy in health care reform will end up being a federal mandate to American citizens to buy private health insurance, unregulated, uncontrolled, un-ANYTHING. Congress will abuse the commerce clause to bring this absolute travesty to us and millions of us who cannot presently afford insurance will be FORCED to buy it, with the threat of an IRS lien or jail.

Obama shot himself in the foot. I will never vote for any democrat or republican again. In fact, voting in this country has become a complete waste of effort, since elections are routinely stolen anyway. Fuck it, im done
