RACISTS ATTACK PRESIDENT OBAMA UNDER THE GUISE OF NEWS

When the right wing media and it's sycophants in the right political wing, are so bold as to verbally attack The President of the United States of America in a personal way, it is time for righteous men and women to stand up and say Enough!

How dare people say that The President of The United States of America is not an American1, is treasonous, racist, or not working in the best interest of America?  Who gave them the right to disrespect the man the majority of Americans voted for?  Who do they think they represent?  Better yet, who do they actually represent?

These are some of  the questions that come to my mind as I read, listen to, or watch the so-called news these days.  Many other thoughts come to mind, but I will not let loose with the stream of expletives that run though my mind.  I won't call names, because I will not give publicity to the idiots.  We know who they are, no names need be mentioned.  If you are not sure who I mean, take minute of your time and turn on some, if not all, Cable-so-called news stations and within a few minutes you too will know of whom I reference.  No doubt you will be as shocked and disgusted as I am these days.

I wish to share some thoughts on this garbage, and garbage it is.  Do not be mistaken.  When The President of The United States of America is slandered, lied on, and verbally attacked, it opens the door for the real haters, known as racist, to attempt a physical assault on him.  Mr. Obama has had more threats on his life than any other President.  He has been so demonized and so many lies have been told on him, that to some his life is considered worthless.

But I wish to say a word to those who have thoughts of or are plotting to do harm to Mr. Obama.  Don't do it!  Let it go!  If something happens to Mr. Obama, the love that he has inspired in the hearts of the World will show in a way that will be devastating.  America is just starting to once again enjoy world-wide respect.  Mr. Obama is showing the world that our population is made up of peaceful, righteous people, not the war mongers or fools they recently thought we were.  We are blessed to have a World-leader on the level of Mr. Obama, and the world appreciates his wisdom and intellect.  Would you have the world think we are still the racist, war mongering, haters of yesteryear, or would you rather be respected?

If you closely look at world events since the election of Mr. Obama, what you see is the knowledge that every county can change thier politics.  The world was, and is, highly impressed that the citizens of the United States decided to change it's politics.  We took a stand and made a CHANGE.  They in turn decided they too can make a change.  It is a testament to the United States that the citizens of Iran took a stand.  We saw various world leaders take softer stances with the United States after the election, where the prior administration had succeeded in joining the world against us.

I know there are some so filled with racist hate due to a Black man in the White House, that the opinions of the world does not concern them.  Those people need help from the mental health community and they need it as soon as possible.  Some members of  the right wing media and political party fit this group, for the amount of loathing they serve on a daily basis is a sure sign of mental dis-ease.

I appeal to those who know people of this ilk to assist them find mental health assistance.  It may save thier lives, for the Secret Service is not playing.  They take this very seriously, and some one will lose their life.  I warn you for I would hate to see the possible fall out that I foresee. 

Not only will some one lose thier life, and the world be shocked and awed, but I foresee a political revolution in this country that may eliminate the Republican party.  Why Republicans you ask?  Because the Republican party has allowed itself to be seen as anti-minority, anti-poor, anti-women, and anti-progress.  By allowing it self to be connected to those who are on the Obama attack, they have silently approved these messages of hate.

My home town, Washington DC, has protest every day of the year.  Every day some group or another comes to DC to protest something.  The freedom of speech is a right that we enjoy and protect.  Residents of and workers in DC are all too familiar with this right, and we cherish it more than most know.  We even join in, when it's of a righteous cause.  We may gripe about the traffic snafus it creates, but we do so tongue in cheek.

But there was a recent event that we, as jaded as we can sometimes be, were not expecting - the assault on the Jewish Holocaust Museum.  That event rocked many of us, due to it's violence and racist hatred.  Many people have visited the Museum and thought it to be safe. Now we know better.

I bring your attention back to this event because the verbal and written attacks by the right wing media and some right wing politicians on The President of The United Statues feeds into this madness.  Oh, if some thing happens they will bend over backwards to distance themselves from the act and defend thier right of freedom of speech, but they will have been just as guilty as the person who commits the crime.

I call upon all righteous men and women to denounce this madness and stand up and say Enough!

- More to come -
