Gospel of the New Truth - Once Again....

It seems that every time I turn around, events back up what I have previously blogged.  And once again, my ire has been aroused.

Obama and the Palestinians seem to have some similar questionable ethical values; i.e., doing one thing and saying another.  For instance:
I noted some time ago that Obama totally neglected his responsibility as chair of the subcommittee on foreign affairs - when Hilary Clinton recently brought up this subject, Obama had the audacity to say that he didn't have time for that responsibility, since he was running for president.  I imagine that since he's spent almost his entire political career running for office, the most important thing to Obama is Obama.

When responding to the Clinton's charge about not rejecting Farrahhan support, Obama said "I don't see a difference between denouncing and rejecting. But if the word reject, Senator Clinton feels, is stronger than the word denounce, then I am happy to concede the point, and I would reject and denounce" the endorsement by Nation of Islam founder Louis Farrakhan, a known anti-Semite.

What a crock of bull - first of all, denouncing a statement doesn't mean you reject the support of the person or group making that statement. Secondly, Obama had to be prodded into making the so-called "rejection". As I've previously written, Obama is still a strong supporter of his church's pastor,  a strong supporter of the goals of Farrakhan.

I guess that Obama understands that you can lie to the people re: your true feelings and ideology - with the assurance (he believes) - that the  American people are stupid enough to fall for whatever they are told, if that telling is in a form which appeals to their emotions.  Goebbels found that to be a very effective device.

The Palestinians - Hamas - continue to attack Isreali cities with rocket launches, and continue to scream and cry that they are terribly mistreated when the Israelis respond - a "holocaust", said Abbas today. More B.S. from groups who insist that only they are right, and everyone else is wrong. Abbas denounced Hamas' previous attacks, but reject them? No way!

So you tell me Hamas - the Palestinians - Obama do not have the same ethical standards, especially when it comes to facing the truth.

My wife and I attended attended a great concert at UNLV last night - the Queens Coldstream Guards and the Pipes and Drums of the Royal Guards of Scotland.  One section of the performance was a tribute to the United States - music from the founding days up through WWII. It was inspiring to see the full house respond to the program in an old-fashioned patriotic way - and giving a standing round of applause to those English soldiers for their support of the USA in Afghanistan and Iraq. That was something we haven't seen much of these days, and we would be much better off if more of our citizens understood that, which to them, is "ancient history". And that applauding the stupid remarks of Michelle Obama, who doesn't believe that our country offered anything from which she could take pride until her husband started winning primary elections, is, in effect, denigrating the greatness that is America.

If Obama and his wife should be the couple occupying the White House come 2009, this country will, as many people fear,  be a place that none of will recognize, and one only the ignorant will enjoy.
