Conservative Ally

Obama wants to take away so many of our freedoms. Obama is a far left radical. He wants to fundamentally change America and everything it stands for. He thinks he knows how to spend your money better than you do. He knows how to take care of your health care better than you do. He knows that you do not know how to handle a gun, regardless that criminals will always have guns. For every problem from energy to national security, Obama wants more Government and less individual Freedom.

Below is a recording of a 2001 interview on Chicago Public Radio. Obama thinks that the Founding Fathers put constraints in the Constitution that infringes on Liberty. And Obama wants to break these constraints. Obama wants people to have less freedom all for his definition of equality, which is not true equality. America is known for the freedom of the individual, but Obama wants to change that.

“A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.”  “I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”

- Thomas Jefferson

 Here is what he said, if you cannot view the video:

If you look at the victories and failures of the civil rights movement and its litigation strategy in the court, I think where it succeeded was to vest formal rights in previously dispossessed peoples. So that I would now have the right to vote, I would now be able to sit at the lunch counter and order and as long as I could pay for it I’d be okay.

But the Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth and sort of more basic issues of political and economic justice in this society.

And to that extent as radical as people tried to characterize the Warren court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution, at least as it’s been interpreted, and the Warren court interpreted it in the same way that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. It says what the states can’t do to you, it says what the federal government can’t do to you, but it doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf. And that hasn’t shifted. One of the I think tragedies of the civil rights movement was because the civil rights movement became so court focused, I think that there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalitions of power through which you bring about redistributed change and in some ways we still suffer from that.
