White House Says No To Day Of Prayer

Posted by mattshultz on May 6, 2009

Yesterday we learned that President Obama and the White House have decided no to participate in the National Day of Prayer.  This has been something that has been done for a number of years and it is disappointing to see this decision by the Obama administration.  As I look at this choice I am left to ask myself what is to be gained by drawing this line in the sand against the Christian faith.

President Obama presented himself as a man of faith throughout the election process but his choices as President to date have been hostile to Christianity.  In his zeal to appease the enemies of this country he has shown himself to be extremely more secular than candidate Obama.

This is just another sad example of the complete disregard for Judeo-Christian the history of  this country. In my political view there was nothing lost by participating in this event so my only conclusion is that President Obama wants to continue to antagonize people of faith who generally fall right of center on the political spectrum.

President Obama has out kicked his coverage ( to use a football term) on the extremely liberal policies that he has shoved down the throats of the American people.  As we continue to see the socialist/fascist direction of this new government my hope is that those people who voted for Obama will decide that this is not the  “CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN’ that they signed up for!

President Obama Is An Economic Fascist

Posted by mattshultz on May 5, 2009

Economic fascism can be defined as government control over the four P’s: Product, Price, Profit Margin, and People. When the government controls the product created by the market, when it controls the price structure for product and company securities, when it controls how much profit particular companies can make, and when it controls the people who are hired and fired, economic freedom has been banished, and economic fascism reigns supreme.

And economic fascism reigns supreme in Barack Obama’s America. Just look at the recent government handling of Chrysler. In a series of press conferences this week announcing Chrysler’s bankruptcy, Obama hit on all of the four P’s.

This quote comes from a recent story on the conservative web site Human Events.  It amazes me to see these people in our country right now driving around with Obama stickers on their cars oblivious to the damage they have done to FREEDOM in this country. This type of Economic Fascism has its roots in WWII era Italy with the policies of Benito Mussolini. In shifting our government to this type of freedom killing enterprise he has done what the AXIS powers of WWII could not.

President Obama and the Democrats are using this economic downturn to implement socialist policies that will hurt the long term viability of this country.  I hope that people will begin to see that the unimaginable sums of money that is currently being spent unchecked in Washington D.C. is not what the founders of this country intended for America.

It appears the Democrats have finally figured out what de Tocqueville warned us of a long time ago.  In his famous quote de Tocqueville said: “The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public’s money illustrates his idea on how a “democratic state” can actually be perverted by soft despotism.

I recently heard radio personality Mark Levin talking about this very concept of Soft Tyranny that we are currently experiencing under the Obama Administration. Wake up Americans you are losing the very FREEDOM that millions of people have fought and died for.

America was always meant to be a country of opportunity…..Never a country of GUARANTEES!
