The truth about Obama, you decide for yourself

I have talked with some friends and co-workers that seem to be convinced that Obama is different from Bush. Of course he is a different president, but I am someone who is in the activist community and protested against Bush for his entire presidency. I know politics better than most people know their favorite music. Most people that voted for Obama are not paying attention to the politics and decisions in this country anymore. The republicans that only watched FOX News from time to time to get their updates on the Bush administration had very little clue what was actually going on. This is no different from the flip side of things.



I have taken it upon myself to go back through all my email newsletters and put together a full list of links and information you can check for yourself and verify to show you what "change" Obama represents. Don't believe me, do your own research and please read this email. Thank you



I also recommend watching "The Obama Deception" which is available free on youtube or google video from documentary filmmaker Alex Jones. If you are an objective skeptic, than you will watch the opposition to your views. That is a true intellect.


Here is the entire documentary, "the Obama Deception" for free on the internet:

On his first day in office, January 21, 2009, Obama signed Executive Order 13489. This order was entered into the Federal Register on January 26, 2009. What this executive order says, is that only the Attorney General (Eric Holder) and Council to the President, (Gregory Craig) are able to review presidential records requests and determine if they can be made public or not. (See Section 3) In other words, you aren't going to see any records or documents that Obama doesn't want you to see.

The Bilderberg set the agenda and have for years. Does Obama go against them? Nope, Tim Geitner, ex head of the Federal Reserve is Obama’s Secretary of Treasury. Geitner attended the Bilderberg meeting to take orders from them, not the president. How is this different from any other president?

Obama proposed ‘indefinite detention’ for Gitmo prisoners. Wait a second, I thought he was for CHANGE? The unlawful detention of people without charges fro longer than 24 hours is illegal. Obama ran on the concept that he was for the constitution and a constitutional lawyer and yet he is keeping the unlawful detention camps policy!?!? He pledged to close Guantanamo, not keep it

We the people wanted charges for unlawful torture of detainees that were being held without charges. We wanted trials. We wanted disclosure because of rumors on the internet from people who saw the classified photos and video that women and children were killed, people were raped, etc. Abu Graib was supposed to be investigated, not covered up. Obama pledged to release all photos, instead he supported the continuing cover up. Here are some of the photos you probably never have seen

http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2009/05/here-are-few-of-torture-photos-obama.html



If you just want to see the documents released by Obama on torture, here you go

http://www.aclu.org/safefree/torture/torturefoia.html



The People wanted an investigation into US Military Solider LaVenna Johnson who was raped and beaten to death when she went to Iraq to fight for our country. They found corrosive acids on her genitals and she had also been shot. It was ruled a suicide. Someone even tried to set her body on fire! The military and politicians refused to investigate this American soldier’s murder ruled suicide because of evidence she was raped by higher ups in the military, defense contracting military industrial complex or politics. Someone is covering this up. Obama could give a crap. The family has requested more than 20 times to investigate and asked Obama directly

Federal Judge rules that Obama Administration cannot use a captured person’s “substantial support” for the Taliban or al Qaeda as a reason to justify their detainment. This actually makes sense. I think people have the right to express support for anti-American values, let a lone support for the “enemy” in a true society that claims it is free. It just can’t participate in the enemy’s wishes.

Rachel Maddow goes off on Obama’s expansion and defense of “preventative indefinite detention of suspects” in other words, if they think you will commit a crime, they can’t charge you on a crime that hasn’t been committed, but they can hold you as long as they want. Wait a second, wasn’t Obama against unlawful detention?

http://www.boingboing.net/2009/05/22/obama-promises-to-su.html

Where the Hell is the Anti-War Movement? Most of the left have convinced themselves that Obama is anti-war, a man of peace, and so there is no need for the campaigns of protest that we saw under Bush. But this is patent nonsense. Obama is not ‘anti-war’ at all.

The Obama Justice Department’s Secret Blogging Team… Is it Illegal?

http://www.counterpunch.org/hudson06222009.html



It is important to understand that these are now Obama’s wars now: War on Drugs, War on terror and War in Iraq. And he does not intend on stopping them. Thank you dual party system for exploiting people’s stupidity to start wars and continue them only to blame the other side. When was the last time you heard grown ups actually say “he started it” and use that as a reasonable excuse to continue it? thank you republicans and democrats for being jerks who prey on the people’s good will and intention by giving them the false paradigm and illusion of opposition when really they are just opposing how to get to the same destination.

I've lost count of how many times Barack Obama has claimed he was going to change the way Washington does business, how he was going to cut off the role of the big corporate lobbyists, stop government use of secrecy to cover for illegal actions, make government more accountable and transparent, end the war in Iraq, stop illegal detention, stop torture, go back to the constitution and so fourth…. But instead he has continued the way Washington works, expanded Wall Street’s influence on it, increased the role of corporate lobbyism, continued and expanded government secrecy covering for illegal actions, made government less transparent, made government less accountable, continued the war in Iraq, continued the war on drugs, continued the war on terror, continued illegal detention and is justifying indefinite detention, continuing torture aboard and still allows Gitmo and 14 other “secret CIA prisons” to operate and finally, Barack Obama has continued the destruction of our Constitution and Bill of Rights. If you voted for him, let me ask you why? Did you honestly think that the establishment wasn’t backing a guy “they” didn’t want in?

USA Today fact checked Obama on Healthcare Bill Claims

From the sidebar of the article:

Some of the assertions that President Obama made about his health plan at Tuesday's town-hall meeting are open to argument:

· "Under the reform we're proposing, if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan."

Not necessarily. In an analysis of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee bill, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office estimated that 10 million workers could lose employer-provided benefits and would have to find other insurance.

· "Insurance companies basically get $177 billion of taxpayer money to provide services that Medicare already provides."

About 10.2 million Medicare recipients are in Medicare Advantage. Under that program, the government pays insurers a set amount per Medicare beneficiary. Obama ridiculed it as costly and redundant, but the plan provides additional benefits, such as vision, dental and hearing, to seniors and helps coordinate health care for those with chronic conditions, says Robert Zirkelbach at the trade association, America's Health Insurance Plans.

· "The rumor that's been circulating a lot lately is this idea that somehow the House of Representatives voted for 'death panels' that will basically pull the plug on Grandma. ... (T)he intention. .. was to give people more information so that they could handle issues of end-of-life care when they're ready, on their own terms. ... (O)ne of the chief sponsors of this bill originally was a Republican ... (Sen.) Johnny Isakson from Georgia."

Isakson issued a press release saying Obama misused his name. A provision he attached to a Senate health care bill would allow seniors to obtain help in formulating a living will something Isakson said is different from House language. The House bill would require Medicare to pay for end-of-life counseling sessions, but it would not mandate that anyone use the benefit.

· "AARP would not be endorsing a bill if it was undermining Medicare, OK?"

The AARP issued a press release to make it clear that it has not endorsed any particular health care proposal. "Indications that we have endorsed any of the major health care reform bills currently under consideration in Congress are inaccurate," AARP said.
