They don't even make any sense.
The term Manchurian Candidate is from a novel, adapted into films in 1962 and 2004. It's about the son of a prominent political family who was brainwashed into becoming an assassin for the Communist Party. Obama brainwashed himself listening to Wright's anti-American rants and associating with far left folks like Ayers. Frank Marshal Davis, who Obama mentions in his book, was a well-known Chicago communist, moved to Hawaii and became one of Obama's mentors as he was growing up. The black liberation theology of his church had its roots in the black separatist, Marxist ideology of Malcolm X in which James Cone articulated Malcolm's objection that Christianity was a "white man's religion." Ayers educational program has its roots in the radical teachings of Saul Alinsky. Obama's based his community organizing on Alinsky's philosophy, "What follows is for those who want to change the world from what it is to what they believe it should be. The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power. Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away". Michelle Obama based her thesis on the ideology of black separatist, Stokley Carmichael. http://tinyurl.com/64c3aq Obama's far left associations bother me more and for different reasons than they do Judy. What bothers me most is that all these guys, their ideology born of hatred for America, have a common desire to overthrow our country's capitalist system and establish a socialist/communist government. Ayers thinks the best way to do this is to infiltrate government and overthrow it from within. Obama is ready to fulfill his dream. Thus, the title, Manchurian Candidate is apt. I do not want to live under a totalitarian, socialist government. Because of Obama's history and associations, I hope I'm wrong, but I fear it is quite possible that this is what we would see when Obama becomes president. Bush's bailout recently handed Obama all he will need for complete ownership of our financial freedom. When the bailout passed, I knew then we are heading for some very tough times and I don't trust Obama at the helm. The most interesting thing about this campaign has been an opportunity to examine my own political ideology. Having imbibed a daily dose of Thom Hartmann on Sirius radio for a couple of years before the primary, I considered myself far left. Now, I'm not so sure of where I am presently on the political spectrum. I think perhaps I'm now more centrist. Maybe my red neck roots are showing, but I don't care. I love my country. I'm proud of our soldiers. I get a lump in my throat when I sing the Star Spangled Banner. I display an American flag on appropriate holidays. I believe in free enterprise as much as I believe in unions. I believe in hard work and fair play and I'm opposed to a government that makes it citizens dependent for a hand out. I hate the sexist treatment of Palin. I think it's worse than Hillary's. It makes me sympathetic to her and she has given me a newfound respect for people with conservative values. I'm still sorting out what role government should play in our lives, but of one thing I am certain, Obama is not to be trusted.
