Obama’s Revenge
By Joan Swirsky Sunday,
February 15, 2009
Once upon a time, a white teenager from Kansas got pregnant by her black
Kenyan boyfriend, Barack Obama Sr., or was it her husband? Whatever. (I say
whatever because we’ve never seen either marriage or divorce certificates).
Some say the couple was in Kenya visiting relatives when the birth of their
son, Barack Obama Jr., occurred. No matter. (I say no matter because we’ve
never seen an authentic birth certificate). By the time the baby was two
years old his father abandoned him for his other wife and child in Kenya.
I wonder how toddler Barry felt when his father left him, and never
reappeared until a single time when the boy was 10. Bewildered? Sad? Lonely?
Angry? What do two-year-olds do with those feelings?
It didn’t take long for Barry’s mother to meet and marry an Indonesian native
named Lolo Soetoro. They moved to Indonesia, where
her child became Barry Soetoro, took on Indonesian
citizenship, and was presumably schooled in public, Christian, and Muslim
schools. (I say presumably because we’ve never seen those school records).
But when Barry was 10 years old, his mother sent him back to the U.S. to be
raised by her parents, Madelyn and Stanley Dunham, although she kept her baby
daughter Maya Soetoro with her.
I wonder how the by-now fully-sentient young Barry felt when his mother sent
him packing. Sad? Jealous of the baby who remained behind with mommy?
Confused and dizzy by the disparate cultures – languages, customs, foods,
sights, sounds, schooling – he had experienced? Resentful? What did Barry do
with those feelings?
By the time he was 10, the boy had been abandoned three times – by his
father, stepfather, and mother. And although he was raised by his white
grandparents in Hawaii – where “people of color” were not his color – he
found out soon enough that his mixed-race background rendered him, in effect,
an outsider. Did that make him feel self-conscious, indignant, victimized?
But he wasn’t altogether an outsider. In Hawaii, young Barry met Frank
Marshall Davis, his first and perhaps most influential mentor. The infamous
Marshall, a Communist activist (and self-confessed pedophile) taught Barry –
was it Obama, Soetero, Dunham? – that white people
were the devil incarnate and that blacks were the most “victimized” people on
earth.
Yet the abandoned and rejected child was lucky. His white-devil grandparents
gave him a comfortable life in Hawaii, and an education that apparently
qualified him to attend several prestigious schools – Occidental College in
CA, Columbia Univ. in NY City, and Harvard Law School in Cambridge, MA.(I say
apparently qualified because we’ve never seen any of his college
transcripts).
BARRY MORPHS INTO BARACK
After his undergraduate days at Columbia, Obama chose not to go to graduate
school, but instead held various jobs in the Big Apple and then moved to
Chicago to become a community organizer. Although he had been exposed to
American exceptionalism through his life in the
United States and his privileged education, it is clear that his experiences
in impoverished Kenya and totalitarian Indonesia, as well as his exposure to
Marshall and the other radicals he had met during his years in New York –
among them the unrepentant domestic terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn of Weather Underground infamy – made the deepest
and most lasting impressions.
Their messages of American imperialism and its white-devil culture clearly
resonated in the thrice-abandoned boy. In his young-adult and adult years,
free to choose his friends and pursuits, he opted exclusively for far-left
socialists and Marxists, and activities aimed at relieving the suffering of
people he perceived to be as victimized as apparently he felt he had been. He
understood their feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and impotent rage,
as well as the pain of fatherlessness. After all, his Harvard-educated father
consciously chose to leave him. And his mother gave him away. Was that
depressing to Barry? Infuriating?
When given the opportunity to join one of dozens of churches in Chicago,
Barry – who had morphed into Barack – opted for the Trinity United Church of
Christ, which was led by the fire-breathing Rev. Jeremiah Wright, whose
decades-long anti-American and anti-Semitic rants apparently resonated in
Obama’s rejected and abandoned heart and soul. (I say apparently resonated
because in over 20 years of regular attendance, Obama said he heard nothing
inflammatory or anti-American, and we’ve never seen the videotapes of any
sermon, although each one was unfailingly recorded).
“God damn America,” Wright raged. “The chickens have come home to roost,” he
“preached” to his whooping and hollering congregation after 9/11. Obama heard
nothing.
But it wasn’t only Wright who Obama was attracted to in Chicago. He was also
drawn to another hate-spewing radical, Rev. Louis Farrakhan, as well as to
the raving Father Michael Phleger, the radical
Islamist Khalid Rashidi, his friends and neighbors the Ayers, and to equally-close friends “Tony”
and Rita Rezko – Tony being the notorious “fixer”
and now-convicted-and-imprisoned felon for fraud, bribery, and money
laundering. What did the seemingly mild-mannered Obama find so irresistible
in these angry and/or crooked people and others like them? Was it the same
thing that a shy man finds in his attraction to a flamboyant girlfriend – and
alter-ego, a person who expresses what he really feels but is unable to give
voice to?
In these relationships and in community organizing – which offers inner-city
mostly-black residents job training, tutoring, and methods to organize
tenants’-rights groups and voter-registration drives, etc. – the
twenty-something Obama apparently found his calling, and also a renewed and
burning ambition.
WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE
While his community-organizing job paid a paltry $12,000 or so per year,
Obama somehow managed to pay his way through one of the priciest graduate
schools in the world, Harvard Law School. (I say somehow managed because we
have no record of his tuition payments). Even more amazing, he became the first
black president of the Harvard Law Review without ever producing a written
paper – or at least a paper that the public has ever read.
There is a good deal of evidence that Obama’s acceptance at Harvard Law – and
his tuition – were facilitated by friends who had a vested interest in the
community organizer. Among them was Percy Sutton, a former Manhattan borough
president and ardent leftist, who was also Malcolm X’s lawyer. In an
interview last year, the octogenarian Sutton stated: “I was introduced to
[Obama] by a friend. The friend’s name was Dr. Khalid al-Mansour,
and the introduction took place about 20 years ago.” Sutton described al-Mansour as “the principle adviser to one of the world’s
richest men” and suggested that al-Mansour was
raising money for Obama. Knowing that Sutton had friends at Harvard, al-Mansour asked him if he would write a letter to Harvard
recommending Obama, which Sutton did most agreeably. This took place about
1988 when 27-year-old Obama was applying to Harvard Law.
Journalist Jack Cashill has credibly speculated
that Obama’s two memoirs were actually written by his pal Bill Ayers, who was
and is a University of Illinois at Chicago English professor, having escaped
life in prison on a technicality. Two years [after he was admitted to law
school], Cashill writes, “while still a law
student, Obama improbably received an advance to write a memoir that would be
called `Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance,’ which was
published in 1995.” His second memoir, published in 2006, was “The Audacity
of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream.” (I suspect Cashill said “improbably received an advance” because, as
stated earlier, Obama had not produced even one paper or distinguished
himself in any way to have inspired a major publishing company to approach
him).
All this begs the question: Who writes two memoirs about himself before the
age of 45? My own speculation is that it could be no one but a narcissist. As
most people know in this age of pop psychology, the psychiatric disorder of
narcissism derives from the Greek myth in which Narcissus, a handsome young
man, became obsessed with himself and fell in love with his own image as he
gazed into a pool of water. A lot of people have some degree of narcissism, which
is characterized by grandiosity, an unquenchable need for admiration,
unhealthy self-absorption, dependence on the affirmation of others, and also
a lack of empathy, which is hidden by both personal charm and the kind of
earnest language that pretends to “feel your pain.”
Or he could be a malignant narcissist., which psychiatrist Dr. Otto Kernberg, a legendary leader in thought disorders,
compares to a narcissist on steroids. This variety involves paranoid traits
(think of Obama’s thin-skinned, quasi-hysterical reactions to Rush Limbaugh
and Sarah Palin), and ego-syntonic
aggression, which means the person is perfectly in-sync with people who have
the courage he lacks to lash out.
But consider the source! Obama’s father was a self-aggrandizing narcissist
who thought nothing of throwing his son away to fulfill his own ambitions and
his mother also threw him away for the same reason. Talk about DNA, which
Obama perfectly exhibited when, during his campaign, he unflinchingly
dispensed with both his white grandmother and his black “mentor” Rev. Wright
for his personal ambition.
GROOMING THE PERFECT MARXIST CANDIDATE
This leads me to only one conclusion, which I wrote about in a former
article: “Obama: The Trojan Horse.” My theory is that President Obama’s
narcissistic charm, even temperament, skill with words (teleprompter
included), hunger to please, radical agenda, and subterranean rage at the
“unfair” American system have been brilliantly exploited by powerful leftist
radicals and Marxists in the United States, who for decades have plotted
America’s path to socialism. He is their pawn, totally dispensable but handy
while the “aura” lasts.
These “handlers” saw in Obama the ideal blank slate on which to actualize
their agenda, and they made sure the slate remained blank by concealing (or
destroying) any evidence of his past, including his birth certificate,
Selective Service record, visa(s), school transcripts, and other vital
documents. All of which is costing his moneyed backers – including America-loathing
billionaire George Soros – multimillions in lawyers’ fees to fight the
proliferating lawsuits that seek the truth about this stealth president.
In fact, former ambassador Alan Keyes, one of the many plaintiffs seeking
proof of Obama’s American citizenship, has reported that Obama’s lawyers have
now filed a motion “to quash our effort to obtain the relevant
documents…[which] confirms Obama’s ruthless determination to destroy anyone
who continues to seek the information the Constitution requires. Obama thus
signals his intent to bring financial ruin on those who won’t accept his
cover-up of the circumstances of his birth is a tactical escalation. It
confirms the common sense suspicion that he won’t act forthrightly in this
matter because he has something to hide.”
It is clear that Obama and his fellow radicals are restive. In the less-than
four weeks of his presidency, the new president has taken volumes from the
Marxian handbook, which dictates that the stupid masses be blitzed with an
overload of information, hollow press conferences, appointments, dismantling
of formerly effective national-security programs, et al., in order to set the
stage for a massive, Soviet-style takeover of our government, including a
civilian national security force that Obama has said should be “just as
powerful, strong and well-funded as the U.S. military.” Echoes of Nazi
Germany in 1938, anyone?
According to writer Kyle-Anne Shrive, in Obama’s ascendance:
“We have yet to see a more perfect collision of Murphy’s Law with the Peter
Principle. In only three weeks’ time, [he] has signaled
to every terrorist on the planet that we are a sorry, groveling,
ashamed nation ready to come to the diplomatic confessional. He is closing Gitmo within one year, has suspended trials there, and
dismissed the charges against the U.S.S. Cole
plotter. [He] has just put our money where his mouth is and is using $20.3
million to bring in Palestinian refugees from Gaza…[he] had the gall to
pronounce the so-called economic stimulus bill absolutely free of `earmarks’
and `make-do work’…but according to the Congressional Budget Office [this
bill] will do worse to our overall economy than no government action
whatsoever.”
And Obama has done all this with the predictable double-speak that characterizes
malevolent intention, i.e., touting transparency while concealing everything,
speaking of integrity while appointing crooks and incompetents riddled with
conflicts-of-interest, supporting energy independence while killing off-shore
and domestic oil-drilling and nuclear power, and feigning optimism while he
speaks of impending “catastrophe” in order to push through a pork-laden,
trillion-dollar-plus Stimulus plan that rewards the corrupt voter-fraud
organization Acorn with billions and unions with discriminatory union-only
labor agreements, paves the way for socialized medicine, and threatens to
take away the most cherished rights of We The People.
As blogger Eric Gurr has said: “We still talk about
the health care crisis, the environmental crisis, the oil crisis, the banking
crisis. Let me tell you my friends you are about to learn the meaning of the
only crisis that matters, the survival crisis.”
You can be sure that the sad-lonely-angry two-year-old, the
jealous-confused-resentful 10-year-old, the self-conscious-
cheated-victimized adolescent, and the man who found solace in and identified
with his hate-America mentors is now determined to redeem all of his demons.
Unfortunately, he is acting out his rage on free-market capitalism, a free
press, property and gun rights, a limited constitutional government,
protection of the unborn, and everything else that is good and great about
our country.
This is Obama’s revenge!
