    It’s a great mystery to me.

    The Shrub attained high office entirely on the strength of his Daddy’s wealth and connections. And there are ghastly indications that Bush the Third is queuing up.

    The O-man attained high office despite a decided lack of paternal resources, and for some reason, this REALLY burns your butt.

    Why is that?

    Your attitude completely flies in the face of the “American Mythos” that you trumpet at every opportunity.

    It’s a mystery.

    Libby: “The O-man attained high office despite a decided lack of paternal resources…”

    Familial wealth burns your butt but makes a lousy argument:

    The O-man attained high office on the strength of the vast wealth of progressive activists and educator class. He was promoted by constructing a colorful worldly background (controlled biography) to replace his decide lack of experience…his intellect was celebrated but not backed up by much evidence of actual achievement. And, the piece de resistance? The candidate was a black man! He would become the first black president.

    You need to go back to school. the mythology has occurred with the rewriting of history and propagandizing to create negative divisive attitudes.

    Wealth in America is earned and suggest achievement and experience!

    Having said that I am not particularly interested in familial serial presidencies and more than I am in favor of trumped up stories of qualifications and competence.

    All candidates are chosen for us. Get the money out of politics. They own us.

    Still with the birther stuff …

    Actually, it was never a mystery to me at all. I was being facetious. You make it horribly plain that, while the “up by the boot-straps” scenario plays out magnificently if the object is of Anglo-Saxon descent, let it be a brilliant black fellow and … well … it just has to be a fraud, doesn’t it?

    I don’t know how you dare put these sentiments into print. Really, I don’t.

    Libby: “Still with the birther stuff … ”

    What is it with you lefties and the birther controversy? You always bring it up when no one has said a word about it? Must really worry you, huh?

    “while the “up by the boot-straps” scenario plays out magnificently if the object is of Anglo-Saxon descent, let it be a brilliant black fellow…”

    Still with the race too?

    Sorry sweetie this dog won;t hunt. Obama came from well to do families who sent him to expensive schools. He was advanced and promoted quickly to the Illinois Senate where he did exactly nothing and then miraculously became the Democrat party’s candidate running against the shoe in favorite woman, Hillary Clinton and WON the nomination. You don’t do that on a boot-strap budget! Try Soros money, honey, and you might begin to get a clue!

    CNS News:

    When President Obama needs help, he can always turn to one of the Soros inner circle. In a speech on Jan. 17, Obama announced that his new Presidential Counsel John Podesta will lead a “comprehensive review of Big Data and privacy,” following the NSA privacy scandal that has dogged his administration.

    What he didn’t mention was that Podesta is the founder of the liberal Center for American Progress. CAP has gotten $7.3 million from liberal billionaire George Soros since 2000 and was one of the keystone liberal think tanks founded after the Democrats lost the 2004 election.

    Discover the Networks:

    While George Soros was busy bankrolling his battalion of established activist groups and launching a few new ones of his own, he quite naturally looked toward the upcoming presidential election of 2008 with great anticipation, eagerly awaiting the day when George W. Bush would finally leave office. The question was, who would replace him? In recent years, all indications had been that Soros favored Hillary Clinton above most, if not all, other potential Democratic candidates for President. But now there was a new face on the scene¯a young, charismatic U.S. senator from Illinois named Barack Obama¯who seemed not only to share virtually all of Soros’s values and agendas, but also appeared to be a highly skilled politician who stood a good chance of getting elected to the nation’s highest office.

    In December of 2006, Soros, who had previously hosted a fundraiser for Obama during the latter’s 2004 Senate campaign, met with Obama in Soros’s New York office. Just a few weeks later¯on January 16, 2007¯Obama announced that he would form a presidential exploratory committee and was contemplating a run for the White House. Within hours, Soros sent the senator a contribution of $2,100, the maximum amount allowable under campaign-finance laws. Later that week, the New York Daily News reported that Soros would support Obama rather than Hillary Clinton for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination, though Soros pledged to back the New York senator were she to emerge as the nominee.1 But it was clear that Soros considered Obama to be the more electable candidate of the two. Most importantly, Obama’s economic and political prescriptions for America were wholly accordant with those of Soros.

    Anti-Capitalism

    Obama’s anti-capitalist background and views are well documented: His father was a communist; his mother was a communist sympathizer;2 in his youth he was mentored by the communist Frank Marshall Davis; he sought out Marxist friends and professors at Occidental College; he attended Socialist Scholars Conferences in New York; he was trained in the community-organizing methods of Saul Alinsky, a communist fellow traveler; he developed close ties to the pro-socialist community organization ACORN; he developed close personal and political ties to the infamous Marxists (and former domestic terrorists) Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn; he was hand-picked for his first political office by Alice Palmer, a pro-Soviet figure in Illinois; in the 1990s he became a member of the New Party, a socialist political coalition; he had close connections to the Midwest Academy, a radical training ground which author Stanley Kurtz has described as a “crypto-socialist organization”;3 and he spent twenty years attending the church of Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who preaches the Marxist doctrines of liberation theology. As President, Obama appointed Carol Browner, a former “commissioner” of the Socialist International as his “environment czar”;4 he employed a White House communications director (Anita Dunn) who cited Mao Zedong as one of her “favorite political philosophers”;5 he appointed a “science czar,” John Holdren, who views capitalism as a system that is inherently destructive of the environment;6 he appointed Van Jones, a longtime revolutionary communist, as his “green jobs czar”;7 and he strongly favors the redistribution of wealth, both within the U.S. and across international borders. The list, of course, could go on and on.

    George Soros, too, harbors many negative views about capitalism and free markets. “The entire edifice of global financial markets has been erected on the false premise that markets can be left to their own devices,” says Soros. “We must find a new paradigm and rebuild from the ground up.”8 According to Soros, the capitalist “belief that everybody pursuing his self-interest will maximize the common interest … is a false idea.”9 Calling the global capitalist system “deeply flawed,” Soros maintains that “as long as capitalism remains triumphant, the pursuit of money overrides all other social considerations.”10 As Soros sees things, capitalism “is today a greater threat than any totalitarian ideology.”11 Lamenting that “the richest 1 percent of the world’s population receive as much as the poorest 57 percent,”12 Soros suggests that only by reining in “global capitalism” can that gap be narrowed. (continues)

    If he really believes what he’s saying why doesn’t he just divest himself of all of his billions by giving every one of those in the 57% group a hundred thousand or so!

    Dewey I will leave to you.

    Why do you keep bringing up Soros, when he can be easily matched by the Kochs? This don’t make no sense. It’s pointless.

    And …

    “What is it with you lefties and the birther controversy? You always bring it up when no one has said a word about it?”

    But, Tina … you did. Do you not realize that you did?

    All these fantasies of Obama’s “unqualification” … from the birth certificate, through his schooling, community work, academic work, senatorial work … this is all a manifestation of your NEED to believe that no black man could be legitimately worthy of the office he holds … whatever the evidence.

    It’s sicko, Tina.

    Libby: “Why do you keep bringing up Soros, when he can be easily matched by the Kochs?”

    Several reasons:

    1. He hides much of his influence by donating to hundreds of activist organizations.

    2. I haven’t yet read a story in the regular media about Soros political influence…the Kochs are regularlyn demonized.

    3. When anyone on this blog throws a spit wad at the Kochs I think it is incumbent upon me to fill in the blanks.

    4. When you attack the wealth on the right it is fair game to remind the public of the massive amounts of money, including Wall Street and banking money that supports the left.

    “But, Tina … you did. Do you not realize that you did?”

    No, I did not. The “birther” issue is solely about whether or not Obama was born in Hawaii. I said nothing about that. I addressed the fact that he did not lift himself by his bootstraps but came fro well off people who sent him to private schools and who was promoted to high offie having accomplished almost nothing…on the merit of a couple of biographies that were constructed as a story, not a tome that demonstrates his great accomplishment.

    If that perspective has something to do with the birther issue you inserted it.

    “this is all a manifestation of your NEED to believe that no black man could be legitimately worthy of the office he holds>

    That is utter leftist horsehockey!

    I support and celebrate the positions held by Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice and others who have risen to high office. I would vote for Ms Rice for President if she ran and won the nimination. I have celerated the accomplishments of black people in the private and public sectors.

    Tellingly both Rice and Thomas were attacked and demeaned by the left! The politically motivated trial by public opinion waged against Thomas by the left was a travesty…a circus! The comparison of Rice to Aunt Jamima and references to her as Bush’s house N****r came from the left!

    You are just as bad with your constant use of the race card when you can’t defend or excuse the failures of the man you elected to the detriment of the nation…in particular the poor and minority communities! That’s what is “sicko”!
