All the King's Men (and Women) -- Obama's Disturbing Appointees

During the 2008 Presidential Campaign, Obama said: “Judge me by the people who surround me.”  If only the voters had done just that back then.  Of course, we all heard about Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright, and we heard Obama distance himself from them, or try to anyway.  Despite all that, Bill Ayers was certainly a friend, and there’s considerable evidence that he helped Obama write his book, Dreams from my Father.  Jeremiah Wright was his pastor for 20 years.  No one believes that Obama hadn’t heard any of Wright’s hateful speeches on America.  But the people of this country voted for him anyway

Well, now that Obama has been in office for 9 months, let’s turn it around and see who he has surrounded himself with (the most important one is at the very end of this post!):

1. John Holdren – Science Czar: He has long been concerned with overpopulation.  In 1973, he felt that the U.S. was already in danger of overpopulation, say that “210 million now is too many and 280 million in 2040 is likely to be much too many.”  In 1977, he co-authored a book called “EcoScience” with Paul and Anne Ehrlich, in which he advocated forced sterilization.  He has also advocated that we “de-develop” the United States, and has maintained that infants and the elderly are not ‘human’.  He has yet to recant those viewpoints, or propose revised statements.  Check out Michelle Malkin’s many articles on him.
2. Van Jones – Green Jobs Czar:A self-proclaimed Marxist, Van Jones has since resigned (on a Sunday morning at 12:01am in an effort to avoid a lot of press).  Yet, President Obama and Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett seem quite enthralled with him when they chose him.  Van Jones is a 9/11 trutherand signed a petition on September 12, 2001 calling for an investigation of then President Bush.  He has made numerous racial remarks, like this one: “The white polluters and the white environmentalists are essentially steering poison into the people of color communities because they don’t have a racial justice frame.”
3. Anita Dunn – White House Communications Director: Recently, she held up Mao Tse Tung alongside Mother Teresaas her two favorite political philosophers.  She tried to wave this off later, saying the juxtaposition of these two figures was a joke, but that’s hard to believe when she continues on discussing the history of Mao versus Chiang Kai Shek.  And she plainly says that these are “…the two people I turn to most.”  Really?  Has she forgotten about the 40 million people he had killed during his reign over China?  Is that really who she turns to when looking for a political philosopher?  And she is the White House Communications Director.  Great pick Obama.
4. Ron Bloom – Manufacturing Czar:  Apparently, Ron Bloom does not believe in the free market system: “We know that the free market is nonsense.”  And during the same speech, he quotes Mao Tse Tung: “We kind of agree with Mao that political power comes largely from the barrel of a gun.”  Wow.
5. Cass Sunstein – Regulatory Czar: A Harvard law professor, she believes that animals have the right to legal representation.  ‘Nuff said.
6. Mark Lloyd – FCC Diversity Officer: Mark Lloyd refers to Hugo Chavez’s takeover of Venezuela as an incredible revolution.  Really?!   More importantly considering his role, he is opposed to private ownership of media.  In other words, he believes in state-run media.

There are others who have criminal records (adult criminal records, not juvenile criminal records that are sealed), and others with disturbingly extreme ideas.

What do all these people that President Obama has surrounded himself with say about him?  How should we judge Obama?  These selections demonstrate, at the very least, poor judgment, and at the most, an intent to radically alter this country.  Not convinced?

Well, I’ve saved the worst for last: President Obama himself.  In December of this year, Obama will travel to Copenhagen to sign a treaty that will explicitly cede U.S. sovereignty.  Lord Christopher Monckton spoke on October 14, 2009 in St. Paul, where he described exactly how this will happen.  And unless the people of this country rise up now, it will be too late to ever take it back.  Our Consititution, our  way of life for the last 230+ years, is about to radically change for the worse.

America, we didn’t listen to the warnings during the campaign.  Now that he is President, are we going to start paying attention?
