7 Stories Obama Doesn't Want Told
Presidential politics is about storytelling. Presented with a vivid storyline, voters naturally tend to fit every new event or piece of information into a picture that is already neatly framed in their minds.
No one understands this better than Barack Obama and his team, who won the 2008 election in part because they were better storytellers than the opposition. The pro-Obama narrative featured an almost mystically talented young idealist who stood for change in a disciplined and thoughtful way. This easily outpowered the anti-Obama narrative, featuring an opportunistic Chicago pol with dubious relationships who was more liberal than he was letting on.
A year into his presidency, however, Obama’s gift for controlling his image shows signs of faltering. As Washington returns to work from the Thanksgiving holiday, there are several anti-Obama storylines gaining momentum.

So he doesn't want anyone to know he is out to destroy the American economy, while enriching his cronies? Then he will work to make a one world govt with the UN and then he will try to rule the world?

Many of these stories I do agree with, especially the one that mentions that Obama is in love with himself. He has been a bully, and he doesn't want anything negative said about him. Look how much he complained about FOX News, and he has Mark Lloyd in the FCC.

I still would like to know where he was born, did he go to school, did he graduate, what did his medical reports say, what kind of grades did he make if he did go to school, where is his passport, did he write a college thesis, and most important, WHY HIDE ALL OF THIS???

I have no evidence other than his behavior after being sworn in as the POTUS, but I don't think he learned anything while attending Haaavaaahd Law School. All he did was respond 'here' when class roll was called, the same as he did so often when Senate votes were being recorded. He certainly has given us absolutely no reason to believe that he learned anything about following the law.

There's an 8th story that obama doesn't want told. The one about who he really is and where he really came from, who really funded his college education and how ACORN really got him "elected" president of the US. I'm talking about transparency. REAL transparency.

Another story he doesn't want told: Obama walks into a bar with a donkey. The bartender says "Where did you get the Jackass?" The donkey says "At the White House."

Sure takes alot of b&lls to walk outside carrying a mag wth your picture on it when all cameras on on you. Heck we know the mag spoke favorably about him since they had his pic on the cover. Gee, I wonder how many people bought that mag just for the Obama story? Not many.

Let's describe Obama. Narcissist. Arrogant beyond belief. Radical. Liar. Wimp. Talker not a doer. Fool being played by foreign dictators. The first and last anti-American president in U.S. history. Ashamed of this great country. Atheist but sympathetic to radical Muslims. Would prefer one great global world government where everyone's wealth in the U.S. could be given to the poor of the world. . .since we don't deserve it. Warped view of history and current issues around the globe. Sure he knows better than anyone else--especially conservatives, Christians and traditionalists; especially the Founding Fathers and the writers of the Constitution--after all, they were all simple people; he's a towering intellectual. In short, Obama is dangerous to this country, its security, its future and its very existence. He needs to be removed from power. It's called IMPEACHMENT.

It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact.
The methodology is known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy;
The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.
The result, they predicted, would be "a profound financial and political crisis" that would unleash "powerful forces ... for major economic reform at the national level."
They implemented the strategy by creating a succession of radical organizations, most notable among them the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), with the help of veteran organizer Wade Rathke. Their crowning achievement was the "Motor Voter" act, signed into law by Bill Clinton in 1993 with Cloward and Piven standing behind him.
As we now know, ACORN was one of the chief drivers of high-risk mortgage lending that eventually led to the financial crisis. But the Motor Voter law was another component of the strategy. It created vast vulnerabilities in our electoral system, which ACORN then exploited.
ACORN's vote registration scandals throughout the U.S. are predictable fallout.
The Motor Voter law has also been used to open another vulnerability in the system: the registration of vast numbers of illegal aliens, who then reliably vote Democrat. Herein lies the real reason Democrats are so anxious for open borders, security be damned.
It should be clear to anyone with a mind and two eyes that this president and this Congress do not have our interests at heart. They are implementing this strategy on an unprecedented scale by flooding America with a tidal wave of poisonous initiatives, orders, regulations, and laws. As Rahm Emmanuel said, "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste."
The real goal of "health care" legislation, the real goal of "cap-and-trade," and the real goal of the "stimulus" is to rip the guts out of our private economy and transfer wide swaths of it over to the government to control. Do not be deluded by the propaganda. These initiatives are vehicles for change. They are not goals in and of themselves except in their ability to deliver power. They and will make matters much worse, for that is their design.
This time, in addition to overwhelming the government with demands for services, Obama and the Democrats are overwhelming political opposition to their plans with a flood of apocalyptic legislation. Their ultimate goal is to leave us so discouraged, demoralized, and exhausted that we throw our hands up in defeat. As Barney Frank said, "the middle class will be too distracted to fight."
It is time we fully internalized and digested this fact, with all its ugly ramifications. These people have violated countless laws and could be prosecuted, had we the political power. Not only are their policies unconstitutional, but deliberately so -- the goal being to make the Constitution irrelevant. Their spending is off the charts and will drive us into hyperinflation, but it could be rescinded, had we the political power. These policies are toxic, but they could be stopped and reversed, had we the political power. Their ideologies are poisonous, but they could be exposed for what they are, with long jail sentences as an object lesson, had we the political power.
Every single citizen who cares about this country should be spending every minute of his or her spare time lobbying, organizing, writing, and planning. Fight every initiative they launch. It is all destructive. If we are to root out this evil, it is critical that in 2010 we elect competent, principled leaders willing to defend our Constitution and our country. Otherwise, the malevolent cabal that occupies the government today will become too entrenched.
After that, all bets are off.

What would be nice is to find a judge whom would sign a court order to have all the records brought to him and for him to tell the American people the truth. The only reason anyone would want his records sealed is because he is hiding the truth about himself. But I know there is no honest judge that would do that.

The man has no idea what he is doing. This entire administration is the laughing stock of the entire civilized world. What is even more profound is the two people who crashed the 1st state dinner - talk about gaffes - and ole Joe was just asmilin with them. They have made such a mockery of our country. I will be so relieved when they are gone from OUR HOUSE.

Holder is a prime example of what you get when you elect someone that thinks like a professor. You get a classroom, theoretical approach to problem solving, thus the trials in NYC. These people, the elite of the Democratic party don't live in the real world. They live in a test tube.

Prov 6
16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, SEVEN are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Wow, I'd say the Obamanation has them all!

THERE IS ONLY ONE SOLUTION TO OUR WHITE HOUSE PROBLEMS-------REMOVE THE...' MAN OF MANY SECRETS' ... AFTER ONE TERM. UNLESS OF COURSE HE IS REMOVED FROM OFFICE BEFORE THEN FOR NOT BEING A LEGITIMATE CITIZEN.

O-bow-ma, as presented by the media (with one exception) is an absolute fraud. These are not just stories. "I believe in spreading the wealth around" was the story, not "Joe the plumber". It's the TRUTH the media (with one exception) does not want told. I don't think Obama even knows (not even yet) just how far left and out of the real mainstream he is. He is so full of himself he needs the media to step in and protect him. Because by and left to himself, he would NEVER have been elected.
Denny
Obama can only avoid the bright light of truth for so long. The myth is slowly crumbling.
