Barack Obama: Why Doesn't He Like Us?

The latest by T.L. Davis. As always, worth a read.

T.L. Davis can speak for me anytime. I can't recall a single time I have disagreed with him on a large issue, or any issue for that matter. I also consider myself a Patriot. I think most Patriots have a lot in common with T.L. Mainly, we see things from the view of what is best for my Country. Not, how can I benefit most from the trials my Country is going through.

obama isn't a Patriot. He thinks only of himself and how he will best benefit from a crisis or disaster. He is an arrogant, selfish, elitist and we should remember that whenever he speaks. We have to filter out the "me" portion of what he says, unfortunantly, when we do that, there isn't much left...

By T.L. Davis - TLin Exile

I've held my tongue for a long time. I am a patriot and I recognize that my will is not always the will of the nation. I recognize that I am not the voice of all the people, that I do not have any claim on what is right or wrong for everyone. We are a nation of vastly different ideals, mores, customs and even cultures. Though I still believe that all cultures can benefit from understanding the free market and the wealth creation that is possible. I encourage every citizen to learn how to adapt to the American model to make themselves and their families prosperous. Despite the dues seeking rhetoric of the labor unions, we are not a people constantly beholden to the labor unions for the benefits they can leverage away from greedy capitalists. Greedy capitalists do more good despite themselves than labor unions can do on purpose.

Don't tell that to the Commander in Chief, though. Barack Obama has made it clear that he is the president of minorities and of labor unions and government workers and that's about it. Oh yeah, he is also the president of the Muslims worldwide, even radicalized terrorists.

I know how this sounds and I have resisted other opportunities to make my feelings known. But, there now has been enough time and opportunities for the President to prove me wrong, but he never has. Let's do a few comparisons just to highlight my point of view. I can only judge a president based on their actions. I am not much concerned about who they are as people, but how they act in office. I fully recognize that a senator has different allegiances than a president so, I won't go back to Obama's days as a senator.

The first opportunity Barack Obama had to demonstrate his willingness to tackle the race issue in a positive way, showing no favoritism was the night when Professor Henry Louis Gates was arrested by a white police officer. Any politician knows enough to keep any opinion out of his/her response until the facts are known, but then the president responded that the white officer acted "stupidly" before he had any chance to review the facts of the incident. Then, the answer was to get the white police officer to sit down with the professor and the president to do what? What did that accomplish? It was a photo op, nothing else and the chance for the president to distance himself from his perception as a radical was lost...
