We Scapegoats

I want to expand on the idea of Obama being a divider and not a uniter.

Obama has gone out of his way to foment even more hate against the Right during his campaign than the Left had been able to generate in the last eight years. And that's saying something!

It has now escalated to threatened and actual intimidation and violence. And he has led the way by applying to law enforcement to investigate those who criticize him, using government information to ruin private citizens, inciting supporters to swamp radio stations, and "get in people's faces", by banning news outlets who don't pay him homage, and investigating reporters and their spouses who ask hard questions.

Hate and rage undermines critical thinking. He must keep people agitated, he can't have them critically assessing his policies or his motives. He needs the Left to hate the Right so they will support his fascist measures to suppress our speech, steal our incomes, take our guns, outlaw our religions and to make sure he has someone to blame when things invariably twist off and go sideways.

While he needs the Right in order to use us as Scapegoats, the villains against whom "his" people will rally, he needs us impotent...not strong enough to mount a serious political threat.

The Right are Jews to Obama's Hitler.

• When the Market doesn't rally, he won't blame his Socialism, he'll blame Capitalism. (RIGHT WING GREEDY CAPITALISTS)

• When terrorists attack, he won't blame his own naive pacifism, he'll blame the Right's saber-rattling and a bellicose military. (RIGHT WING ISLAMOPHOBES & WARMONGERS)

• When unemployment reaches Depression levels, he won't blame union tyranny, he'll blame Corporate "outsourcing". (RIGHT WING BIG CORPORATIONS)

• When electricity prices skyrocket, he won't blame his "Bankrupt Coal" strategy, he'll blame Greedy Energy Companies. (RIGHT WING EXPLOITERS)

• When gas prices reach $6.00 a gallon, he won't blame his "No Drilling" policy, he'll blame Greedy Oil Companies. (RIGHT WING OIL PROFITEERS)

• When crime rises, he won't blame liberal judges and compassion for criminals, he'll blame guns and legal gun owners. (RIGHT WING MILITIA REDNECK GUN-NUTS )

• When more children don't learn to read, and more drop out than graduate, he won't blame a bloated and unaccountable education system or lack of competition, he'll blame greedy taxpayers who don't want to pay "their fair share". (RIGHT WING SELFISH RICH ELITISTS)

• When "the poor" remain poor, no matter how much welfare they get, he won't encourage them to work hard and better themselves, he'll blame the achievers for doing better, working harder and making more money. (RIGHT WING MONEY GRUBBERS)

He has already laid the groundwork with accusations of hate and racism, religious bigotry and violence. And he will continue to do so to keep the Left too agitated and angry to think things through, or notice that the common denominator of all the failures and disappointments is himself.

Everyone who votes for Obama expects all things to be bright and beautiful as a result of his election. Everyone who votes against him, knows that disaster will be the real result. When it all turns to ashes, he's going to need someone to blame, and so will the Left. That is the only way they can cling to the Utopian dreams he wove for them in their opium trance.

That is the only way they can witness the failure of "Hope" and "Change" and not blame their Messiah. It MUST be someone else's fault.

And that "someone else" is us.

We have been warned.
