The Obama We Always Knew
You won’t see these on CNN or any other Obama network. Thank goodness for Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and bloggers everywhere – especially those finding these phenomenal interviews of Barack Obama.
The first takes place in 1995 and is juxtaposed with his campaign in the Presidential primaries. Here he discusses how redistribution of wealth must be done to save the African-American community and ensure his salvation as well. He goes on to explain how our money should be used to fix the racial wrongs of the past – basically getting even with people. He then goes on to compare life in America to genocide in other parts of the world and he is talking in terms of black vs. white. No where does he address black on black crime in this country.
The second is a radio interview that took place in 2001. In it Obama discusses the “tragedy” of the Civil Rights movement’s failure to pursue “redistribution of wealth” and “political and economic justice,” and that the Warren Court (Supreme Court) missed the opportunity to redistribute wealth on a grander scale. Obama goes on to make it clear he wanted the Warren Court to shatter the Constitution and create an American society our founding fathers never intended.
In this interview he complains that the Constitution is a “charter of negative liberties.” Being a “Constitutional lawyer” it seems to me Obama would know this is because the Constitution was intended to limit or restrict the power of the federal government by giving more powers to the states and the individual. Obama wants this reversed. He wants us to say “screw the Constitution” and reverse it entirely.
There’s some change for you.
The Obama camp is now in damage control. They have released the following statement about the 2001 radio interview.
“In this interview back on September 6, 2001, Obama was talking about the civil rights movement – and the kind of work that has to be done on the ground to make sure that everyone can live out the promise of equality,” Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton says. “Make no mistake, this has nothing to do with Obama’s economic plan or his plan to give the middle class a tax cut. It’s just another distraction from an increasingly desperate McCain campaign.”
Burton continues: “In the interview, Obama went into extensive detail to explain why the courts should not get into that business of ‘redistributing’ wealth. Obama’s point – and what he called a tragedy – was that legal victories in the Civil Rights led too many people to rely on the courts to change society for the better. That view is shared by conservative judges and legal scholars across the country.
“As Obama has said before and written about, he believes that change comes from the bottom up – not from the corridors of Washington,” Burton says. “He worked in struggling communities to improve the economic situation of people on the South Side of Chicago, who lost their jobs when the steel plants closed. And he’s worked as a legislator to provide tax relief and health care to middle-class families. And so Obama’s point was simply that if we want to improve economic conditions for people in this country, we should do so by bringing people together at the community level and getting everyone involved in our democratic process.”
It is very clear from Obama’s comments in 1995, as well as 2001, and just recently to Joe the Plumber, that Obama is a true radical; A Socialist that believes in the doctrine of “redistributive change” or “redistribution of wealth.” This is Obama’s method of reparations for blacks.
An Obama administration coupled with a Democratic majority in both houses will ensure this change will take place without the courts. You think about that.
