Americans laughed at the the ‘Obama as messiah’ cartoons. They turned away when they saw school children singing his praises, à la Hitler. They wondered what all the hoopla was about when he gave a speech to public schools across the country. And they ignored him when he said it was “the goal of this administration to ensure that every child has access to a complete and competitive indoctrination education – from the day they are born to the day they begin a career.” [emphasis added]
Now parents have another issue to ignore. [Thanks to Pamela Geller who broke this story.]
- Organizing for America, the successor organization to Obama for America, is building on the movement that elected President Obama by empowering students across the country to help us bring about our agenda of change.
- OFA is launching a national internship program connecting students all over the country with our organization on the ground – working to make the change we fought so hard for in 2008 a reality in 2010 and beyond.
- Winter 2010 internships (dates are flexible depending on your school’s schedule)
- The Internship requires a commitment of 12 hours per week
- Credit must be approved by your school ahead of time
Thus begins an application being given to high school students, recruiting them to take a ten-week course on community organizing. It includes the following recommended reading:
- Rules for Radicals, Saul Alinsky
- The New Organizers, Zack Exley
- Stir It Up: Lessons from Community Organizing and Advocacy, Rinku Sen
- Obama Field Organizers Plot a Miracle, Zack Exley, Huffington Post
- Dreams of My Father Chicago Chapters, Barack Hussein Obama
In other words, Obama is doing exactly what he said he would do. He’s taking over the minds of young Americans, creating the political machine of the future, and using tax-payer-funded public schools to do the job.
You gotta give it to him: Obama knows how to organize.
If this doesn’t motivate you to get your kids out of the public school system, and home school them, then you are beyond hope … and change.

This seems about right.

Jan 8, 2008 “Obama: No warrantless wiretaps if you elect me”
For one thing, under an Obama presidency, Americans will be able to leave behind the era of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and “wiretaps without warrants,” he said.
Feb 11, 2010 “Feds push for tracking cell phones”
In that case, the Obama administration has argued that warrantless tracking is permitted because Americans enjoy no “reasonable expectation of privacy” in their–or at least their cell phones’–whereabouts. U.S. Department of Justice lawyers say that “a customer’s Fourth Amendment rights are not violated when the phone company reveals to the government its own records” that show where a mobile device placed and received calls.
Now here’s some change we can believe in: Obama went from an outspoken critic of privacy violations to an establishment proponent of the same, and it only took one election and a couple years.
Say goodbye to the Fourth Amendment:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Surprised to hear from me again so soon? I’m kinda surprised to be writing again, too. I’ll try not to make it a habit. But I’ve been watching the snow storms ripping through Washington, and something occurred to me that I thought might be helpful.
See, when I’m trying to do something and things beyond my control keep getting in the way, I stop for a bit and say, “Is that You, God? Should I be going in a different direction?”
Now, snowstorms are no big thing here in upstate New York. We’re used to them. But if I were the President in Washington and the big, white fluffies just kept piling up and disrupting everything I was trying to do, I think I’d stop for a bit and say, “Is that You, God? Should I be going in a different direction?”
This isn’t a prophecy or anything like that, and it might be completely off the mark. I mean, hey, these storms might be trying to teach Al Gore something. But I thought it was worth a couple minutes to let you know what popped into my head.
Who knows? Maybe this old girl out in the sticks could influence the federal government. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?
Anyhow, it couldn’t hurt for you to just ask God if He’s sending you a message. I’m just sayin’.

Most Christians that I know, if given a choice, would vote for Sarah Palin over Barrack Obama. Palin embodies the positions of the current conservative right. Obama is the liberal left in presidential form.
After reading some of Palin’s recent remarks in a Fox interview, though, I have to wonder what God thinks about her stands.
However, there are many things that he [Obama] is doing today that cause an uneasiness in many, many Americans, I’m one of those.
Who looks at the way that he is treating the trials of these terrorists and kind of as gosh, they’re on a crime spree right now. No, we are in war. These are acts of these war that these terrorists are committing. We need to treat them a little bit differently than an American who is worthy — an American being worthy of our U.S. constitutional rights. I don’t think the terrorists are worthy of our rights that people like my son fight and are willing to die for.
I won’t argue whether terrorists in America should face military or civilian courts.
What I will argue is that it’s not just Americans who are “worthy” of our U.S. constitutional rights. It’s every man, woman, and child on the planet. God loves them all, and to say that only Americans should be treated decently is the height of hypocrisy. Our Declaration of Independence states that the rights Palin would deny to terrorists are God-given rights, not United States rights given only to Americans.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
