Barack Obama’s Comfort Zone

Dr. Sanity quotes Larry Grathwohl, a participant in Weather Underground meetings.

I brought up the subject of what’s going to happen after we take over the government. You know, we become responsible for administrating, you know, 250 million people. And there was no answer. No one had given any thought to economics. How are you going to clothe and feed these people? The only thing that I could get was that they expected that the Cubans, the North Vietnamese, the Chinese and the Russians would all want to occupy different portions of the United States.
They also believed that their immediate responsibility would be to protect against what they called the counter-revolution. And they felt that this counter-revolution could best be guarded against by creating and establishing re-education in the Southwest where we would take all of the people who needed to be re-educated into the new way of thinking and teach them how things were going to be.
I asked, “Well, what is going to happen to those people that we can’t re-educate, that are die-hard capitalists?” And the reply was that they’d have to be eliminated and when I pursued this further, they estimated that they’d have to eliminate 25 million people in these re-education centers. And when I say eliminate, I mean kill 25 million people. I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people, most of whom have graduate degrees from Columbia and other well-known educational centers and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people and they were dead serious.
AYERS IS DEAD SERIOUS ABOUT HIS ‘SOCIAL JUSTICE’

Ayers, and those of his ilk, are deformed and ugly men, of that there is no doubt – at least that’s how they appear to those of us who have been spared a life in the rarefied atmosphere of academia where, apparently, all manner of venal and vapid humans are regularly elevated to demi-god status.

This blog and hundreds of others have documented Obama’s comfort level with the ideology espoused by Ayers, an affinity also made evident by Obama’s lengthy roster of radical mentors and his continuous associations with the breed throughout his life. By now, most know that Obama’s choices in life display a pattern of beliefs and behaviors that are congruent with the teachings of Wright’s liberation theology, compatible with the politics by intimidation, as taught by Alinsky (and practiced by ACORN), and a good fit with the self-loathing Ayers’s obsessive hatred for America and his own pigmentation.

These are waters in which Obama has swum from the time he was in his leftist mother’s womb until today. This is his comfort zone. He was never a fish out of those waters and Ayers did not appear to him to be a predator, but a familiar species of fish. Obama may have been 8 when Ayer’s was playing at being a big-bad-bomber-boy, but by the time Ayers formed a relationship with him, Obama had matured into a man after Ayer’s own heart, of that I have no doubt. No, the waters Obama swims in, he is well acclimated to, and the sharks and predators that swim with him are familiar friends.

It’s when he is tries so hard to appear as if he were made of presidential “stuff” that he flounders like a fish out of water. A fish that needs countless handlers, puppet masters, truth squads, ACORN creatures, voter fraud, and millions in questionable campaign contributions – and a steady supply of teleprompters. He is definitely out of his depths when pretending a reverence for America and he is obviously swimming against the current when trying to pass himself off as someone who knows, or gives a damn, about capitalism.

The only time that Barack Obama makes sense is when you place him in his natural habitat. A world where unrequited race angst is a sign of divinity, where the nurture of bitter envy is an art form, where the hunger for power and payback are blood to the body and sustenance for the soul.

In the end, Barack Obama is common, very much the banal malcontent that we have seen since the sixties produced that ubiquitous mold. That America should deem him fit for the crown says more about our spiritual and moral derangement than it says about the character of the man who would be king. That any American should believe that Barack Obama gives a damn about “Joe the Plumber”, speaks to our inane refusal to comprehend that men who can disinterestedly ponder the execution of a quarter million “die-hard capitalists” are very much real, very powerful and they ain’t about to redistribute that power to your, or me, or Joe.

Thomas Sowell describes the type in his A Living Lie.

Obama is also part of a long tradition on the left of being for the working class in the abstract, or as people potentially useful for the purposes of the left, but having disdain or contempt for them as human beings.

Karl Marx said, “The working class is revolutionary or it is nothing.” In other words, they mattered only in so far as they were willing to carry out the Marxist agenda.

Fabian socialist George Bernard Shaw included the working class among the “detestable” people who “have no right to live.” He added: “I should despair if I did not know that they will all die presently, and that there is no need on earth why they should be replaced by people like themselves.”

For a glimpse into the methods that madmen employ,visit Zombie’s expose on Ayer’s Prairie Fire, (excerpt below) a screed recording the radicals’ passion for war and their tedious and predictable antipathy for the American soul. Surely Ayers and Rev. Wright have much they agree upon. But you see, we are expected to believe that neither of them ever breathed a word of their passion to Obama. Right.

William Ayers’ forgotten communist manifesto: Prairie Fire

Our job is to tap the discontent seething in many sectors of the population, to find allies everywhere people are hungry or angry, to mobilize poor and working people against imperialism.

We have an urgent responsibility: to destroy imperialism from within in order to help free the world and ourselves from its grasp.

Our final goal is the destruction of imperialism, the seizure of power, and the creation of socialism. Our strategy for this stage of the struggle is to organize the oppressed people of the imperial nation itself to join with the colonies in the attack on imperialism. This process of attacking and weakening imperialism involves the defeat of all kinds of national chauvinism and arrogance; this is a precondition to our fight for socialism.

Page 41: The Definition of Socialism

Ever since the word “socialism” was brought up in the campaign by “Joe the Plumber,” to whom Obama said he intends to “spread the wealth around,” there has been much discussion among pundits about what the word “socialism” really means, and whether or not it’s a bad thing.

Well, William Ayers had his own definition of socialism, which he spelled out on page 41 of Prairie Fire. Because it’s relevant to current events, let’s look at what the word “socialism” meant to left-wingers not too long ago:
[...]

Socialism is the total opposite of capitalism/imperialism. It is the rejection of empire and white supremacy. Socialism is the violent overthrow of the bourgeoisie, the establishment of the dictatorship of the proletariat, and the eradication of the social system based on profit. Socialism means control of the productive forces for the good of the whole community instead of the few who live on hilltops and in mansions. Socialism means priorities based on human need instead of corporate greed. Socialism creates the conditions for a decent and creative quality of life for all.

   Great post Zee. You know if one tenth of this stuff should by some incompetence or forgetfulness on the part of the elitist nincompoops who pass themselves off as journalists, appear on the front page of the NYT, the battle would be over. They must read it just as we do, so what on earth is it that causes them to ignore it? They, like Obama, Ayers and all the other left over lefties [ha ha] live in an adolescent fantasy world, yes, that’s the answer to my question, they all suffer from arrested development. Ah well, they have a big shock in store on Nov 4th.
