Obama Victory: The Death Rattle of Liberty
October 26, 2008 | Tagged Chavez, Election, Healthcare, Liberty, Obama, UN |
Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary defines death rattle as:
a rattling or gurgling sound produced by air passing through mucus in the lungs and air passages of a dying person
Years ago I worked as a CNA in a hospital (also as a nursing student, before I decided a healthcare career wasn’t for me.) The death rattle meant that the patient was going to be gone soon. One could hope it meant he or she would suffer no more and his or her soul would move on to a better place. The death rattle of liberty offers no such hope.
I was perusing news articles this morning and found three of them that provided food for thought on this subject. One from The Washington Obamost because it had such a telling title:
At the U.N., Many Hope for an Obama Win
An informal survey of more than two dozen U.N. staff members and foreign delegates showed that the overwhelming majority would prefer that Sen. Barack Obama win the presidency, saying they think that the Democrat would usher in a new agenda of multilateralism after an era marked by Republican disdain for the world body.
Obama supporters hail from Russia, Canada, France, Britain, Germany, the Netherlands, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Indonesia and elsewhere. One American employee here seemed puzzled that he was being asked whether Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) was even a consideration. “Obama was and is unstoppable,” the official said. “Please, God, let him win,” he added.
“It would be hard to find anybody, I think, at the U.N. who would not believe that Obama would be a considerable improvement over any other alternative,” said William H. Luers, executive director of the United Nations Association. “It’s been a bad eight years, and there is a lot of bad feeling over it.”
Conservatives who are skeptical of the United Nations said they are not surprised by the political tilt. “The fact is that most conservatives, most Republicans don’t worship at the altar in New York, and I think that aggravates them more than anything else,” said John R. Bolton, a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. “What they want is the bending of the knee, and they’ll get it from an Obama administration.”
John Bolton summed it up nicely. Of course this worthless waste of New York space prefers our nation to fall into Obammunism. Imagine the money Mr. Global Poverty Act will funnel to various U.N. programs! The U.N. Secretary General is probably going to call domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and get his advice on the best way to maximize the funds received under Obama’s direction. Global “social justice” at the expense of Americans, won’t it be grand?
Not that the U.N. man-crush on “Big Brother” Barack Obama is just about money. They can also look forward to a position of power over the “ugly Americans.” Unless they are blind, they can see Obama’s disdain for liberty and salivate at the thought of a fallen United States. If there is one positive in a Barack Obama presidency (not a positive for Americans), it is the fact that lesser nations will look better by comparison than they currently do.
Reuters has an article that, on its surface bears good news but when viewed through the lens of Obammunism, one realizes that pharmaceutical breakthroughs will be curtailed.
New Merck HIV drug works in untreated patients
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A new class of HIV drugs can help control the virus in untreated patients, researchers reported on Sunday.
Merck and Co. hopes the findings will open a new market for its drug Isentress, the first drug on the market in a new class called integrase inhibitors.
Isentress worked slightly better than an older HIV drug called efavirenz in suppressing levels of the AIDS virus, the researchers told a meeting of the American Society of Microbiology and the Infectious Diseases Society of America.
Last October, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared Isentress for use in HIV patients whose infection has begun to resist the effects of other drugs.
This problem, called resistance, is common in AIDS virus infections and is one reason why companies continue to develop new drugs to fight HIV.
Anyone that isn’t a drooling Obamoron should be able to spot the problem here. How do innovations in medicine occur? Is it a simple matter of St. Barack waving his hand over an empty bottle, which subsequently fills with whatever wonder drug a person may need? Some might argue that money (gasp… the evil profit) must be invested in research and development. Evil pharmaceutical companies are a target of Obama’s socialist plans, will they be allowed to profit? If they are not allowed to profit, how will research and development be financed? Is it a simple matter of re-educating drug company owners and researchers to give their intellectual property in the absence of any incentive? If so, I hope the number of people estimated to be eliminated in the re-education camps is smaller than the 25 million The Weather Underground estimated would have to be eliminated once they took over.
The third article is an omen from Reuters:
Venezuela’s Chavez wants to jail rival
CARACAS (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez threatened on Saturday to imprison his main political rival, intensifying a campaign against a man he calls a crime boss just a month before he faces tough regional elections.
Opposition leader Manuel Rosales, who lost to Chavez in the 2006 presidential vote, is governor of the oil producing state of Zulia and is running for mayor of its capital Maracaibo.
“I am determined to put Manuel Rosales behind bars. A swine like that has to be in prison,” Chavez said.
The future is less than bright. Do the political enemies of “Big Brother” Barack “Born Alive, Let Them Die” Obama have this to worry about? Obama is only a candidate and we’ve already seen the writing on the wall. Remember “Thought Criminals Punished in Denver“? How about “Missouri’s Obama Truth Squads“?
Our grasp on liberty is slipping and it has been for years. My pessimistic side believes that we are doomed to hit the rock bottom of a tyranny at the hands of the Obammunists before enough people will wake the hell up! My optimistic side believes that McCain can win the election and we can win a four year liberty extension. We can use this extension to find conservative leadership, attempt to educate Obamorons on individual responsibility and common sense, and to purge The Republican Party of the nearly Democrat RINOs that have taken over.
Are there enough thinking Americans left that have not been fooled or lulled into some outrageous support for the liberty eliminating Obamanation?

I believe social security and medicare should indeed be phased out and ALL subsidies should end. That said, an Obama presidency is not the answer to any problem.
