IBD Warns of a Socialist Tsunami

Posted by Lonely Conservative On October - 12 - 2008

The Federal government’s been pouring hundreds of billions of dollars into the economy but it doesn’t seem to be helping. The markets have been in a free fall and there’s no end in sight. According to Investors’ Business Daily investers are afraid of the wealth sucking, job killing socialist tsunami that’s about to hit the United States.

And right now it looks like the U.S., which built the mightiest, most prosperous economy the world has ever known, is about to turn its back on the free-enterprise system that made it all possible.

It isn’t only that the most anti-capitalist politician ever nominated by a major party is favored to take the White House. It’s that he’ll also have a filibuster-proof Congress led by politicians who are almost as liberal.

Throw in a media establishment dedicated to the implementation of a liberal agenda, and the smothering of dissent wherever it arises, and it’s no wonder panic has set in.

What is that agenda? It starts with a tax system right out of Marx: A massive redistribution of income - from each according to his ability, to each according to his need - all in the name of “neighborliness,” “patriotism,” “fairness” and “justice.”

It continues with a call for a new world order that turns its back on free trade, has no problem with government controlling the means of production, imposes global taxes to support continents where our interests are negligible, signs on to climate treaties that will sap billions more in U.S. productivity and wealth, and institutes an authoritarian health care system that will strip Americans’ freedoms and run up costs.

All the while, it ensures that nothing - absolutely nothing - will be done to secure a sufficient, terror-proof supply of our economic lifeblood - oil - a resource we’ll need much more of in the years ahead.

The businesses that create jobs and generate wealth are already discounting the future based on what they know about Obama’s plans to raise income, capital gains, dividend and payroll taxes, and his various other economy-crippling policies. Which helps explain why world stock markets have been so topsy-turvy. Read Full Article.

Come on people, is this really the kind of change you believe in?

    There you go again, with that racism!

    Calling Obama “the wealth sucking, job killing socialist tsunami that’s about to hit the United States” is now climatological and economic racism.

    Pour it on!

    It is a sad reflection on the state of our nation’s citizens, that they have been so dumbed down by the public education system and the media to realize what is happening to them.

    Unfortunately, they won’t wake up to this nightmare until they are living squarely within it. It will start with double digit unemployment, followed by double digit inflation, sprinkled with a smattering of fuel shortages, and topped of by soaring crime and violence.

    America will suffer under this nightmare for a minimum of 4 years.

    What will be the most ironic outcomes will be when the masses of city slickers start to pour out of the wasteland cities and into middle america. So while they chide us for bitterly clinging to our guns and religion now, they will be asking us for help real soon.

    The Davis Plan and Connections to Obama

    In 1963, while serving in Navy Intelligence (from 1958-1967), I read the FBI file on Frank Marshall Davis. He had outlined the Communist plan to take over America from within, by installing educators at all levels of our educational system, gaining control of the media, getting Liberal judges appointed, recruiting, training and backing people to be elected to public office.

    I have researched every piece of legislation I can find that the Liberal Democrats have passed since the early sixties, and if you will research for yourself, you will find that they have been slowly moving this country towards Socialism.

    When Obama announced he was running for President as an unknown with only one major speech at the DNC (that the DNC and MSM made so much fuss over), he aroused my old Intel suspicions. So I started researching.

    I have not found any evidence to convince me he is a Muslim, but I did find his radical associations were unusual. I found that Frank Marshall Davis, who had fled from Chicago to Hawaii in 1958 because of the FBI investigation, met Obama in Hawaii when Obama was 12 years old, and was Obama’s mentor from then till Davis died in 1987.

    Davis put Obama in touch with the Socialist Party in Chicago (called the New Party) which Ayers is also a member of, therefore the first “Planned” contact with Ayres. The New Party helped launch and finance Obama’s political Career. Obama…..selected, trained, groomed, and scripted to become the “puppet” leader of the United Socialist States of America.

    Since I am in the 4th and final stage of congestive heart failure and will be lucky to live long enough to see the next President take office, why should this election matter to me? Why does Obama’s statement, that he wants a “National Civilian Security Force” as strong and as well-funded as our military (conjuring up images of the old-style USSR police state) matter to me?

    IT’S SIMPLE… I LOVE AMERICA

    Economic Collapse By Design, How Socialists Pushed Obama to the Top

    I am as insignificant as a speck of dust in the universe, but I love this country. I gave many years of my life and health in service to America, and like the old preacher said, “I’ll gnaw on the devil till my teeth fall out, then I’ll gum him to death”.

    Obama is an evil cloud over this country — a cloud of One World Rule by radical Socialists with two classes of people: the “elite” ruling class who control the wealth and resources, and the poor workers who depend on the ruling class for their existence.

    The dishonest radical Socialists who call themselves Democrats, used an unpopular war, charges of corruption (many false), and the “tell a lie until it becomes truth” tactic to win control of both houses. They did everything they could to cause America to lose in Iraq just to win elections, and hoped to ride the same jackass into the White House.

    In June, the surge was working so well they had to go to plan “B” which was already in place, but just had to be executed. From 2001 until the present day, Democrats blocked every attempt to rein in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (Republican attempts are on record). This was the first part of plan “B”.

    Check the numbers: from 2001 — 2006, the economy was growing at a steady pace, the stock market was setting new records, jobs were being created, and gas was $2.16 a gallon. Since 2007, the stock market has tanked, the economy has tanked, jobs are being lost, and gas is about $4.00 a gallon.

    What happened?????

    Democrats executed the second part of plan “B” by having their ultra wealthy cronies manipulate the stock market and futures markets so they could set out to tank the American Economy. They care nothing about the American people, they only care about gaining power.

    Links of a Thousand Broken Chains

    Gathering information is like going through the scattered links of a thousand broken chains and connecting the links that match.

    Obama’s links since birth have Radical and Socialist stamped on them, with kind of murky stamps of Muslim, Black Separationist, and Black Supremist. The beast with many heads, which one controls.

    Obama, with no experience, no accomplishments, makes one speech at the DNC in 2003, and suddenly he is the Presidential nominee. Who is his puppet master? who is pulling his strings?

    Some links in Obama’s chain of associations, I haven’t found yet. I’m currently looking for information about Obama’s parents possibly having connections to Frank Marshall Davis in Chicago, before Davis fled to Hawaii, and more of the connections between all of them and Ayres, Rezko and the others.

    Anyone willing to help with this research would be appreciated. But the events outlined above, and in my previous post, “Barack Obama Groomed By Socialists” are matching links that can’t be ignored.

  11. jon Said,

    I’m just wondering, how old are those of you, that believe this Socialism stuff?
    Outside of a very, very small minority, Dems aren’t Socialist, Marxist, or any of the stuff you guys imagine them to be.
    We’re all Capitalists, we just have a different view of society, and the world.
    I’m not going to get into it, but historically, our Country drifts back & forth, to the right & to the left. You’ve had your day (28 years), and now it seems to be shifting back toward the left.
    The thing you have to realize, is that on the left, we think the Right created this financial mess - - one last raping of our Treasury, before they lose some power. We think the Media is biased to the Right (Large Corporations own it) - - which is not to say that reporters themselves don’t lean to the left, just that what they report (or don’t report), is dictated from Corporate.
    Check out *the Shock Doctrine,* if you’re interested in actual Liberal thought, as opposed to the imaginary stuff, all right-wing bloggers like to pollinate.

    The point of my post, is basically, that demonizing anyone that doesn’t fit your thought set, doesn’t help this Country. We’re in a mess right now, not just financially, but militarily, internationally, etc. If this divisiveness continues, our Country is just going to grow weaker & weaker.
    At some point, if you truly care about our Country, you’re going to have to stop the demonization, and we’re going to have to work together, to get this Country back on its feet.
    Or, just continue making believe that everyone, who thinks differently, is out to get you. An in so doing, you’ll only assure that America grows weaker.
    Also, at some point, if you care about America, you’re going to have to admit that over the past decade, the Dems have had little power. Even now, being in the majority, they’ve done very little in forwarding their agenda. Yet, you imagine the Dems are to blame for the current state of this Country.
    The GOP has held the White House 28 of the last 40 years, including the last 8; nominated seven of the nine Supreme Court justices and held Congress for 12 of the last 14 years, including 6 of the last 8.
    What’s happening now, is on you guys. Take some responsibility already.

  12. Jay Ernst Said,

    ComOb and friends, I am under the same impression as you are when you are saying that this nation’s citizens have been dumbed down, although blaming the public school system alone is a bit too easy. I happen to live in a well to do school district and the system here works just fine.

    The American people have been dumbed down by Corporate America and Big Money interests using fear, hate, division and if all fails, a false, abused patriotism to supress change and any constructive criticism in this country.

    I say travel and learn. You may be in aw of what you find. But low wages and high cost of living in combination with measly vacation time keep the average Joe Sixpack inside his box so that he remains stupid and silent and thinks everything here is just about as good as can be.

    You Conservatives have lost the American Dream. Or maybe you have found yours and you just want to hold the competition down. Got your piece of the cake, now defend it come hell or high water. But we are all in the same boat and it is sinking and it is time to wisen up.

    America is broke but she’s fixable. Divided we fail. And if we don’t live up to the challenges, countrys that many Americans don’t even know where they are on the map (to quote your hero McCain) such as India, China and others, will soon be ready to take over the lead and make the 20th century the only American century in history. The military can’t fix it. We soon won’t be able to sustain our military because we are out of funds.

    We need a plan

    We need friends; not too many left by the way because we lost our moral leadership in the world. Nobody is looking up to us anymore. They want our wealth but they don’t want nothing to do with us. And that hurts America. No support with our wars, no goodwill anywhere. Suspicion at best, hate at worst, resulting in terrorists growing all over the world faster than we can kill them. We are 300 million people. 6 Billion in the world and counting.

    We need peace so we can afford wars to come.

    We need brains, we need a fair deal for America and for Americans. We have to tap into our resources. All our resources. Educate a broader America, make the individuals stronger to benefit the nation. Include and envolve minorities that maybe do not carry their own weight. We have to reconquer the American Dream for our children.

    We need energy independence and create job at the same time.

    As governor of Alaska there is one thing you need to know: 95 % of the budget is redistributing oil revenues. As long as you keep digging holes, you’ re doing just fine. No worries. That is no 21st century energy policy. That is no experience how to create jobs or attract businesses. Anybody with a GED can run Alaska.

    The democrats did not cause this mess.

    The world is complicated anymore and the facts are complex, so I make it easy for those of you who get lost these days. I say there are three simple facts that we know:

    1. People with higher income tend to vote Republican. Do you make above 250.000 anually?
    2. People with strong religious believes tend to vote Republican (which does not necessarily make them true Christians) So, do you believe that catholics and jews and muslims all go to hell?
    3. People with higher education tend to vote Democratic (unless they identify more with group 1 of which they are a likely member as well)

    In essence, if you are not rich and you are not a religious nut, you gotta be pretty stupid to vote for McCain.

    I would like to end positive and say God Bless America, but God does not care about America more than he does about most any other country. May he have mercy on us.

    Kristallnacht… Anchluss… WW II… the Soviet inspired coups that took over one by one China… Poland… Hungary… Czechoslovakia… Roumania… Bulgaria… Cuba… Vietnam… (African countries, you name them:_____________)… (South American countries, you name them: _________________) …
    … then USA…
    The Obama campaign looks more and more like a creeping coup done by the old KGB instruction manual - from a media successfuly inflicting a lexical code that shields Obama, to the same media stubbornly refusing to address Obama’s past (and present), to chicanery and intimidation, to national blackmail on racial matters, and it will clearly further abuse in their desire to get control of this country.
    If Obama wins, expect Felix Edmundovich Derjinsky to become a saint blessing the American left and its further purifying endeavors.
    Good bye and good luck - and take this from an Eastern European who knows more about left-wing savage dictatorships initially emerging as “change/hope & power to the people” - all communist Eastern European dictators (score= 30 millions plus politically motivated murders), began their career as… humanistic community organizers, with no exception.
    Good bye and good luck - Loubianka has established itself in Chicago and its branches are flourishing across the USA in the offices of the Democrat Party.

  14. davide Said,

    I can`t blame all of you folks for you fear of Obama. You try and justify it by labeling him as a “Muslim” , ” a friend of terrorists, a “baby killer”, or whatever your smear of the day and your talking points dictate. The real reason is that you grew up in a different world . Your thoughts and ideas, your perceptions, and , in, some cases, prejudice is a result of the “good old days” .

    Last year my 90 year old father told me “Obama does not have a chance ,he is black, and America is not ready for a black president.” I love my dad, he is a WWII vet and fought in the Korean conflict. He was a front line B.A.R. carrying infantryman. He is a committed Christian and a great father. He grew up in a different world. What he was trying to say that Obama cannot win because HE THOUGHT that America was not ready for a black President based on his life experience.

    Today I talked to my dad, God bless him. He told me that he is voting for Barack Obama, Dad watches CNN all day and he has watched all the debates on CSPAN.
    He believes that Obama is a very intelligent and articulate person that has the ability to
    work with people with different opinions and find solutions.

    I am proud of my dad. He is objective enough to vote for a candidate based on his ability to do the job and not partisanship and old ideas of superiority based on race.

    The Bible tells us , in Galations 3:28
    “There are neither Jews nor Greeks, slaves nor free people, males nor females. You are all the same in Christ Jesus.” In other words there is no race of gender when God looks at us.

    Our constitution tells us that “ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL” . Our country is based on the premise that there is no superiority based on race.

    According to the latest polls more and more independent voter and women are falling in behind Obama. In Florida , the home of many elderly voters , Obama is ahead of McCain.
    I implore you all to ask yourself “what is the real reason I wont vote for Obama ?

    I understand that all old folks are not voting on the basis of race and I do not mean to generalize.. They are voting based on policy and issue and I appreciate their wisdom.
    In many cases I do believe their wisdom is clouded by the era and social norms they grew up with.

  15. j. carpenter Said,

    Well, Jay Ernst,
    You had some very pretty words. Nice essay, until your bias reared its head. Let’s see, you said those with higher education vote democrat, unless they are higher income. Hmmm. I have a higher education. My husband has a masters. We don’t make $250,000 and yet we will vote republican even though we’re independent.

    You were doing pretty well, until your insult comment “not a religious nut”. See, your words are well written like Obama’s spoken words, but then those little comments slip out and your true beliefs emerge and they don’t match your eloquent words. “clinging to their guns and religion”.

    Davide,
    I don’t look at Obama and see skin color. I see a dishonest man, with very little experience, someone who speaks well, but doesn’t say anything with meaning but is divisive and arrogant. Sorry, but color or political party has nothing to do with it. As for “smears”, Obama has been active enough himself with the smears. I don’t call him a muslim or baby killer or friend of terrorists. I look at his record and history and I see the wrong person to be president of this country. I’m not willing, in these turbulent and vulnerable times of our country, to take the risk with an inexperienced, unknown with MANY questionable people in his background and support and who clearly doesn’t understand economics.

    But, sorry for not falling into your biased categories, guys.

  16. davide Said,

    Dont be sorry, Its ok, I never accused you of being biased. It is a relief that you are not. Have you noticed that for every one “questionable” person in Barack Obamas background there are thousands of experts from every segment of US government that are endorsing him him ? Among his supporters are some of the most notable and accomplished economists, military generals, scholars and statesmen in the world. I am quite sure they are more informed than we are .They don`t have a problem with Obamas arms length encounters with “questionable” people . You shouldn`t either.

    It is true that Barack Obama is young but he is anything but divisive. When you read first hand accounts of his Harvard days and listen to what his professors and fellow students say about him, they will tell you that he is anything but divisive. Tell all the people that have met him, that have taken his hand , have hugged him on the campaign trail, that he is “arrogant” or “elite” they will tell you those are the last words they would use to describe him. He is an intellectual and very analytical.

    A President must have the intelligence and temperament to function as Commander and Chief. You are right . Barack Obama does not have as much experience as George Bush .
    Unlike Bush he will surround himself with qualified and experienced advisers from both parties. How anyone can watch and listen to John McCain and Sarah Palin and feel they are a better choice for our country than Obama and Biden is beyond me. I watched the Palin interview with Katie Couric and it was painful. I was appalled .

    Established GOP leaders are expressing their disappointment in John McCains decisions. The polls reflect a trend to Obama and McCain is dismally behind in every Electoral College projection. Obama will make a fine President and we will look back on this moment in history and remember it with great pride.

  17. Lonely Conservative Said,

    Oh Davide,

    You sound terribly naive. Of course Barack Obama is not divisive with his liberal colleagues and his Marxist professors. They all think alike. Of course he’s not divisive on the campaign trail with his adoring fans. He is also the most liberal Senator in the US Senate. Did you read the comments of Misanthropicus and Marion Valentine? As far as the polls, they’re almost always wrong. A pollster called our house last night and my husband said he was busy and hung up. We never speak to pollsters. We’ll vote on election day.

    And please, the accusations of racism are completely ridiculous. I could not care less about the color of a man’s skin. What I care about is ideology and judgment.

    All my best to you.
