State, people finally woke up......... but it was too late.

Any one of these things, in and of themselves does not really matter.
But.... when you add them up one by one you get a phenomenal score that
points to the fact that our Obama is determined to make America over into
a Marxist/Socialist society. All of the items in the preceding paragraphs
have been put into place. All can be documented very easily. Before you
disavow this, do an internet search. The last paragraph alone is not yet
cast in stone. You and I will write that paragraph. Will it read as
above or will it be a more happy ending for most of America ? Personally,
I like happy endings.

If you are an Obama Supporter, please do not be angry with me because I
think the President of your choice is a socialist, but there are too many
facts supporting this. If you seek the truth you will be richer for it.
Don't just belittle the opposition. Search for the truth. I did.
Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Constitutionalist, Libertarians and
what have you, we all need to pull together. We all must pull together or
watch the demise of a society that we all love and cherish. If you are a
religious person, pray for our nation.

Never before in the history of America have we been confronted with
problems so huge that the very existence of our country is in jeopardy.
Don't rely on most television news and what you read in the newspapers for
the truth. Search the internet. Yes, there is a lot of bad information,
lies and distortions there too but you are smart enough to spot the
fallacies. Newspapers are a dying breed. They are currently seeking a
bailout from the government. Do you really think they are about to print
the truth? Obama praises all the television news networks except Fox who
he has waged war against. There must be a reason. He does not call them
down on any specifics, just a general battle against them. If they lie,
he should call them out on it but he doesn't. Please, find the truth, it
will set you free.

Our biggest enemy is not China, Russia, Iran; no, our biggest enemy is a
contingent of politicians in Washington DC .

Thanks for putting this together. It's all so obvious to most thinking people.
We must keep the pressure on....and pray.

"When Obama wrote a book and said he was mentored as a youth by Frank, (Frank Marshall Davis) an avowed Communist, people said it didn't matter."

Perhaps you should do some fact checking on your own, because you are wrong on both points. Obama never said he was mentored by Frank. Davis was a closet communist, not an "avowed communist." There is no evidence that Obama even knew of Davis's CPUSA connection.

Although Obama's book indicates "Frank" was a family friend who offered him advice on racial issues, Obama wrote that Davis "fell short" and his views were "incurable." Obama did not even visit Davis for three years before going to college. Obama's book, itself, proves that Obama did not consider Davis to be a "wise and trusted counselor," which is the definition of "mentor." By what creative definition can Davis be considered his "mentor"?

By exaggerating evidence that Davis advised Obama, yet ignoring evidence from the same source that Obama did NOT Frank to be a wise and trusted advisor, those who claim Davis was Obama's "mentor" are as dishonest as ex-D.A. Mike Nifong. The "Nifong Syndrome" is the stacking of evidence by ignoring evidence that does not fit one's agenda.

Oops...I didn't author this -- it was a forward to me without any indication who wrote it!

Keleokualoha,

Mentors is another way of saying "family friends" whom you utilized to "advise" you. Rational people listen to the ideas of others and make determinations they like the ideas before you recruit them to guide your discernment and discretion.

You seem to be suggesting that Obama, a Havard educated man was incapable of determining that Davis' ideas were communist. I find that astounding. Perhaps it's true that Obama is unable to identity political ideology and determine tyranny and oppression from freedom. Maybe you're onto something. It certainly would explain why he is all for freeing terrorists from Guantanamo, and wishes to prosecute the people who imprisoned them. It also may explain why he brought his children to a "church" to be brainwashed with untruthful propaganda inciting malice against whitey.

Your thesis that he's incapable of understanding communism and racism would gel better if Obama had the history of gathering "family friends" to advise him whose ideas were Klu Klux Klan. While the Obama's are attracted to communists, antisemitism and racism against whitey, nobody can dispute that people pining for the days of slavery and lynching blacks are nowhere to be found among his "advisers" and "mentors".

Hang Loose.

Unknown said...

YOU WROTE: Mentors is another way of saying "family friends" whom you utilized to "advise" you.

RESPONSE: Disagree. Trust is a necessary (but not sufficient) condition for mentorship under the standard definition. If you do not trust an advisor, he is not a mentor.

Specifically, which of "Davis's ideas were communist"? Did he EVER advocate communism in his writings (commonly available online)? If so, please provide direct quotes. Thanks!
YOU WROTE: You seem to be suggesting that Obama, a Havard educated man was incapable of determining that Davis' ideas were communist.

RESPONSE: Disagree. Obama wasn't even in high school when his grandfather brought him to visit Davis. There is no evidence that Davis advised Obama on anything except ethnic matters, according to his book.

YOU WROTE: Your thesis that he's incapable of understanding communism and racism would gel better if Obama had the history of gathering "family friends" to advise him whose ideas were Klu Klux Klan."

RESPONSE: Disagree. I posited no such thesis. I have no doubt that he is now capable of understanding them, but the issue is his relationship with Davis before he left Hawaii, not his subsequent education.

TTC said...

Kale,

You can't have it both ways. If you don't trust an advisor, you don't call upon him for advice.

The evidence that Davis shaped Obama's ideology is voluminous.

Obama is saying now that he didn't trust Davis - of course, because he is a political liability. Obama also had to stake the claims he didn't trust another "family friend", Rev. Wright after the evidence got out into the public square that Obama was enjoining in Rev. Wright's blacks hate whitey rallies and bringing his children to be contaminated by the hatred.

You and I would have long walked out with our children if our white pastors were making outrageous claims and inciting malice against black people. I will say one thing - I don't think Obama hates whitey as deeply as his wife - but that is about the kindest thing I can say about his racial convictions. Luckily, everyone rational who watched the drama unfold with a Cambridge professor now realizes it.

You don't seem to be willing to face the fact Obama is a liar and you are using his lies to convince yourself the long list of communists, racists and radical social monsters Obama is empowering is immaterial to the reasons Obama finds their ideas ones he wants to use to shape our country.

You'll forgive us if we decline to join you in your delusions!

God Bless!

YOU WROTE: "The evidence that Davis shaped Obama's ideology is voluminous."
RESPONSE: Please provide even one piece of evidence. Correlation is not causation. You seem to be suffering from the "post hoc" fallacy. Once again: Specifically, which of "Davis's ideas were communist"? Did he EVER advocate communism in his writings (commonly available online)? If so, please provide direct quotes. Thanks!

YOU WROTE: "Obama is saying now that he didn't trust Davis."
RESPONSE: Not really. In the same book that he mentioned Davis ("Dreams"), he also said that Davis "fell short" and his views were "incurable." He said this in the exact same document that he said everything else about Davis.

I am primarily interested in the disinformation regarding the Davis-Obama relationship, not any other controversial matter such as Rev. Wright, etc.

Happy New Year!

TTC said...

Happy New Year Kaleo,

If you are trying to disprove that Davis was not a communist leader recruiting others to communist ideas, then you are swimming in a river of denial that I'm afraid I'm incapable of assisting you out of.

May I invite you to review Hitler's history to see you find the words anti-Semitism?

When social engineers want to move a country into something 90% of the inhabitants find sinister, they do it under the radar. There's a communist party here in America but people find it evil. Therefore, they repackage their ideas, work in subterfuge without putting the name communism on it. The communists got some traction in Europe decades ago. When they came over to America with their ideas, and Joe McCarthy revealed what was happening, there was not enough people born from incest to slip it by our intellects. Poor Joe, God rest his soul.

The communists had to slow down and go under the radar. While they were crucifying McCarthy they went about breeding the people. The man in the White House has been bred since he was a teenager.

You see, when you bump into people with bald heads and orange robes tapping symbols saying Hare Krishna like a broken record - there are ideas and people behind how they got there. Because of their social situations, mental, intellectual and social instabilities they proceeded to seek out a savior. There are false saviors ready to pounce upon and exploit the socially, spiritually, intellectually and emotionally challenged.

Obama had a chip on his shoulder as a young teenage boy. He looked around for people whose ideas he was attracted to and he latched onto them.

The evidence you seek comes right from Obama's mouth. Obama said that "Frank" was a family friend and a person whose ideas about race were he wanted to adopt and so he selected "Frank" to counsel him about race. Now, he needs an excuse to say he wasn't attracted to his ideas because the ideas are frightening and a political liability - just like Wright.


Obama has political advisors who advised him put a few sentences in his book to distance himself from "Frank". They intentionally omitted Frank's last name. By omitting Frank's last name they know the people who knew Obama sought out Davis as an adviser were limited. They could therefore limit the political fodder to the internet, because they have control of all the newspapers (with the exception of Fox) and the average slob is too busy trying to put food on the table and keep a roof over their heads to stay on top of the government takeover by communists.

TTC said...

You simply can't separate the controversies over the long line of racists, communists and radical social engineers from the Frank Davis matter. There's a connection to his present ideas and people, just like there's a connection to Hare Krishna's at the airport. It is a breeding.

We are all bred, each one of us. We choose our breeding at a very young age. I chose Catholicism. I was earnest in my quest to put my own will aside and hear God's voice. I sought it out in people and things. The Sacraments held enough of an umbilical cord to my soul to tether me through my rebellion and eventually, I returned to the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ to guide my soul, will and intellect. It is brain food to navigate the soul through this valley of deception.

How Obama and his family ended up selecting Rev. Wright as a spiritual guru is not immaterial to the advice he sought from "Frank". When people filmed and recorded what Wright was saying to dissect why Obama and others were flocking to him for spiritual leadership, Obama eventually disavowed Wrights ideas were part of his relationship with him too. Which, of course, to thinking people, is ludicrous. I assume you know what "Frank's" ideas about race are, but don't seem to be the least bit appalled he was attracted to them. The fact that he now says they "fell short" is also ludicrous.

Nor is the pattern of disavowing the characters who guide him immaterial when they become a political liability. Obama was bred. That breeding would be frightening to most Americans and the communist party realizes they can't reveal their identities to the people attracted to the subterfuge of caring about and for our fellow human beings. They prey upon people who want to care about other people but have something in their formation that has gone awry. Some of just naive. There are even several good faith Catholic initiatives unwittingly giving communist ideas a podium (Inside Catholic).

Obama's breeding and the path he chose and continues to choose is a story that you are trying to break up into crumbs and that's why you can't connect the dots.


Obama has come right out and said he was so attracted to Davis's ideas that he selected him to advise him. You don't need any other evidence. Inspired by communist and racist ideas, he set upon the path. He has a long list of sinister people and characters advising him and you are wasting time splitting hairs about whether the word "advise" means "mentor" and whether the word "communism" is actually used when they're promoting the communistic ideology in one particular leg of Obama's trajectory.

Meanwhile Obama and his political cronies are making whitey, people who study and work their tails off and have a savings account to pay the debts they owe penny for penny, our armed forces, the CIA and people who "cling to religion" instead of him as the country's boogeymen and he's busy writing of the debt of deadbeats, drunks and druggies. He's about to take away the healthcare from the elderly, the poorest of the poor and the terminally ill to give it to people who have no ambition - the people who want everything for nothing while we all work to pay it all off.

"Obama said that "Frank" was a family friend and a person whose ideas about race were he wanted to adopt and so he selected "Frank" to counsel him about race."

Please quote any supporting statements from "Dreams" that show OBAMA rather than his grandfather "selected" Davis for ethnic counseling. On the contrary, Obama met Davis through his grandfather when he was only around 11 years old and had just returned from Indonesia.

Please quote any supporting statements from "Dreams" that show OBAMA wanted to "adopt" Frank's ideas about race. On the contrary, Obama disavowed Frank's ideas about race right in "Dreams" itself, published BEFORE Obama became a politician.

Unknown said...

I just want to make sure I understand your point of view. Is it your position that even though Obama called Davis's views "incurable" in "Dreams From My Father," you nevertheless contend that Obama wanted to adopt his "incurable" views about race?? Is that it?

TTC said...

No, you still don't understand. I am saying that Obama admitted in his book that he sought advice/mentoring from Davis and he is only now, at this moment in time, creating distance from that mentoring relationship.

I am saying he was so conscious that the mentoring relationship with Davis would be scandalous that he referred to Davis as "Frank", intentionally omitting his last name and then made believe that he is the type of person that seeks advice from people whose ideas he finds "incurable".

I am saying that Obama pulled the same distancing crap from his racist and anti-semetic mentoring with the Rev. Wright. I am saying after seeking Wright as a spiritual mentor, distancing himself years later is bunk.

In terms of taking quotes from Obama's book, where he, in his own words, describes Frank as one of the "people he knew", he recounts conversations with him that certainly were not conversations he had when he was "eleven", he recounts pieces of Davis's life story with the familiarity that reveals he had intimate conversations - and many of them - with Davis -- you really don't need me to go through the exercise of quoting those, do you.

I am saying that if I wrote a book as a prolife Catholic, faithful to the precepts of the Church, and I recounted intimate details about relationships the in my breeding -- it isn't rocket science for the readers to draw the conclusion that the characters guided my formation. It is common sense to equate somebody who guided somebody else's formation as a mentor.

If by chance, my trajectory was the highest position in the country and one of my mentors turned out to be a well-known communist and a perverted pedophile - when I write my book, I'm going to say something in my book to create the greatest amount of distance from that person I can come up with.

I am saying that rational people watched the Proffessor Gates debacle, have now seen the radical communists, racists and social engineers Obama appoints and surrounds himself with and would find your attempts to marginalize one kook from a long list of kooks, an exercise in futility.

Unknown said...

Thanks for your response. It brings us full circle, because your theory seems to require indoctrination of Obama by Davis. Such a theory is speculative and brings us back to my earlier question:

Specifically, which of "Davis's ideas were communist"? Did he EVER advocate communism in his writings (commonly available online)? If so, please provide direct quotes. Thanks!

The evidence refutes your claim that Davis was a well-known communist. He was a well-known civil rights activist and writer, but only a closet member of the CPUSA. This is straight from the first Davis-Obama attack by so-called "Accuracy In Media" (AIM) in February 2008 (see http://www.aim.org/aim-column/obamas-communist-mentor/).

Although “I'm hardly interested in proving my research to Kincaid or any of those whose work is a travesty to scholarship," University of Kansas Professor Edgar Tidwell, whom AIM's Cliff Kincaid cites as "an expert on the life and writings of Davis," dismisses misrepresentation of Davis's influence in one simple paragraph:

"Although my research indicates that Davis joined the CPUSA as a "closet member" during World War II, there is no evidence that he was a Stalinist, or even a Party member before WWII. Further, to those attempting to make the specious stand for the concrete, there is no evidence that he instructed Barack Obama in communist ideology. Frank Marshall Davis did NOT believe in overthrowing the USA. He was committed to what the nation professed to be. For him, communism was primarily an intellectual vehicle to achieve a political end-a possible tool for gaining the constitutional freedoms of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for ALL Americans"

Either Professor Tidwell is an expert or not. Either Davis advocated communism or not. Either he was an avowed communist or he was a closet communist, but he could not be both. As they say on CSI: "Follow the evidence!"

TTC said...

You can be an avowed communist but a coward in which case he would have joined CPUSA in the closet while indoctrinating others via networking.


Communism wasn't the only activity Davis operated from the closet - he was also a pedophile. To me what you're doing is akin to a crusade trying to disprove he was a pedophile because he wasn't out promoting pedophilia.

Davis worked for a communist newspaper - that should be all the evidence you'd ever need. He wrote many columns for the communist newspaper that reveal his convictions were communist, he hosted a communist convention. Tidwell quotes Davis' whinings about free enterprise and capitalism.

e.g.:

"I warn you that our civilization is in danger if we heed the deceptive cries of special privilege, if we permit our men of great wealth to send us on a wild goose chase after so-called radicals while they continue to plunder the people .... We are constantly told of the evils of Socialism and Communism. The label is applied to every man, woman and child who dares to say a word which does not have the approval of Wall Street."

There is no room for doubt Davis promoted the government takeover of industry,putting the kibosh on personal ambition and success through hard work, accumulation of personal property.

While you've been on your pursuit of disproving these ideas are communist, the Democrats created emergencies by having George Soros and others pull their money in and out of the stock market to destabilize Wall Street. Simultaneously, as the workforce was being laid off in the devastation, he created hysteria over the flu. In the pandemonium of people being afraid of coughing, sneezing and throwing up and lined up to be injected with carcinogens and God only knows what else, Obama siezed control of the auto industry, the banking industry, the housing industry and he is about to overtake the healthcare industry where the government will determine who lives and who dies, who has access to palliative and curative care should you come down with cancer or another terminal illness.

In the Name of Jesus Christ, snap out of it.
