Over the past three years, Americans have learned quite a lot about the mind and manners of Barack Hussein Obama, America’s greatest electoral disaster.
One fact stands out from all others about America’s failed experiment with affirmative action and diversity : The man someone installed as the 44th President of these United States is unabashedly and unstintingly an advocate for more intrusive government interference into every aspect of human life, notwithstanding specific and implied guarantees against onerous government set forth in the U.S. Constitution.
In Obama's progressive mindset, the U.S. Constitution is nothing more than an outdated relic promulgated by a band of reckless, white vigilante outlaws and slave owners from the middle of the 18th century.
When appropriate, Obama and people of his ilk would eagerly extend the philosophy of unfettered nanny-state fascism to certain dumb animals which, according to progressives, are endangered by human greed and neglect.
It’s ‘government by elitists and for elitists’ in the Obama world.
The Obama progressive vision for America demands huge sources of capital, otherwise known as taxes, to fund the very meddling which the forefathers attempted to eradicate by kicking the British out during the only justifiable “Occupy” movement in U.S. history.
To genuine, die-hard lefties like Obama, government exists solely for the purpose of levying taxes and fees against private enterprise and the allegedly well-to-do, and redistributing said monies to the allegedly poor and near poor in order to “level the playing field,” a term, incidentally, which cannot be found in the Constitution.
Contemporary liberals have upped the moral ante for “soaking the rich” by expanding the vernacular of class warfare to include the notion that the blessed are obligated to pay their “far share,” another Marxist term not found in the U.S. Constitution, but which is prominent in thinking expressed by Communists and Democrats in general.
All of which makes Barack Obama’s recent proposal to “streamline government” in need of intense scrutiny and managed skepticism, once the hysterical laughing has subsided.
As reported recently throughout the media:
Announcing this morning that he is seeking authority to streamline the executive branch, President Obama said he needs the same kind of "authority that every business owner has to make sure that his or her company keeps pace with the times. And let me be clear: I will only use this authority for reforms that result in more efficiency, better service, and a leaner government."Barack Obama, the warrior-slayer against big government?
As an example, the president wants to shut down the Department of Commerce, taking its core functions and giving them to a new agency that will also fold in the tasks of the Small Business Administration, the U.S. Trade Representative, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation, the Trade and Development Agency and the Export-Import Bank.
"Right now, there are six departments and agencies focused primarily on business and trade in the federal government," the president said. "Six. In this case, six isn't better than one. It's redundant and inefficient. With the authority I am requesting today, we could consolidate them all into one department with one website, one phone number and one mission - helping American businesses succeed."
The cut and slash president?
Consider, please, this unpublished report: Unnamed and unreliable insiders, speaking on condition of absolute anonymity, report that once his Consolidate and Shrink strategy for business is proven, Obama plans to expand the concept to the military.
Under Obama’s plan, the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines would be consolidated into a lean, mean mini-force called the Department of Peace and Harmony with branches in Australia and Uganda only. This department would be headed by Ron Paul in exchange for Paul’s release of his rowdy fans to the Obama 2012 reelection campaign. (Satire)
The obvious fly in the Obama ointment is giving this president more unilateral power. That is an idea whose time is not likely to arrive any time soon, provided there really is an all-caring, loving God!
Puleeeeeeeeeeeeeeze fellow Americans, do not fall for the latest Obama scheme!
