Obama: Trust only me, America

Always the smooth operator, Obama is urging Americans to tune out other voices and listen only to the sound of their dear leader’s.

During his commencement address at Hampton University in Virginia, he bemoans the growth of new media: “You’re coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don’t always rank all that high on the truth meter. “» With iPods and iPads and Xboxes and PlayStations…information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment rather than a tool of empowerment, rather than the means of emancipation. “» All of this is not only putting new pressures on you, it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy.”

It is less than slightly ironic to hear our Blackberry-toting president proclaim he is unable to operate modern technology. But the content of his new media criticism is downright chilling.

The story continues …..

    Obama is beginning to look and act more and more like a dictator than a President.He is the first President that does not salute the USA flag and when he does I have noticed that he places his left hand over the right breast,not the right hand over the heart.His number one fundamental changes of America appears to be to get rid of the USA Constitution,and to dismantle everything that made this Republic government the most successful government the world has ever known.Why would anyone want to destroy something that is so great and good for the whole world?

    When Hitler was building his German Police state, he was able to silence the media by ordering arrests and beatings of reporters.

    The Obama government is constantly hindered mainly by Fox News exposing his communist/socialist ties, leanings and current activities. Perhaps in response to adverse media, the Obama administration recently employed a vendor to COLLECT Internet information from social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter; information that could potentially be used by the Obama administration to injure Americans. For example, should you apply for a federal job: what are the chances your name won’t first be crossed referenced by the Obama government with comments you made on the Internet about Obama or something else? Likewise if you apply for a bank loan at a lending institution the Obama government incurred influence or now controls, could your statements regarding Obama at a website, obstruct your ability to get that needed loan? Or a credit line? Obama’s spying on the Internet has set the groundwork for the Obama Administration to potentially intimidate Citizens from speaking out against him, not just on the Internet but anywhere in public there might be government informants. Obama is representative of the kind of government that American Patriots died to protect us from in four wars. Who would have imagined that after all the wars Americans fought to preserve our civil liberties, we would self-destruct by handing over the Presidency and our country to a Marxist. I am glad my parents died before they could see this. It is beyond outrageous!

    More recently Obama supporters have suggested using taxpayer money to pay for a government owned and run “Press” that would be supposedly representative of Government. Imagine taxpayers forced to pay for a Government Press foreseeable to be used by Obama to spread socialist propaganda.
