Perhaps Stephen Maloney is correct in his reasoning of why "nobama" bloggers had such little effect on the election. American voters were not listening, and did not want to keep up with the extremely complicated issues surrounding Tony Rezko, Khalidi, William Ayers etc. With the media promoting Obama and participating,if not leading, in the aspersions cast against opposing candidates, all needs to now be reaccessed. Joan Swirsky gives an excellent examination of these issues in her article for "The New Media Journal" .
The liberals’ plan was to trick the citizens of the United States into believing that their moderate-toned, multi-racial candidate was a gift to America, a way to expiate their collective guilt over racial discrimination and “heal the wounds” that, in their view, our big bad country was guilty of inflicting. They and their media lapdogs presented this “gift” with grandiose language and warm-and-fuzzy images, the better to convince the electorate of his benevolent intentions.
At first wary, Americans ultimately bought the media hype. Once they took a closer look, however, they were introduced to many Sinons – Tony Rezko, Jeremiah Wright, Rashid Khalidi, Louis Farrakhan, et al. But the “gift” assured them that he was being victimized by these people, and so the American people bought the “victim” thing and rewarded him with the nomination to be president. end quote
Swirsky quotes Dr.Kate who in her article "The Trojan Candidate",uses the analogy of the Trojan Horse, and it is fitting for the sudden ascent of Obama. How else could an inexperienced,Chicago politician defeat the Clinton Machine? Everything the Obama campaign planned seemed masterful, but frustrating for those who did not fall in line for the new order of thinking.
Joan Swirsky refers to one of Obama's role-models, Saul Alinsky who wrote "Rules For Radicals". In which this is said about change: “... a Marxist revolution achieved by slow, incremental, Machiavellian means which turned society inside out. This had to be done through systematic deception, winning the trust of the naively idealistic middle class by using the language of morality to conceal an agenda designed to destroy it.”
Logically, this leads Swirsky to another point from Dr.Kate: the role of William Ayers and quote from Ayers' blog:
"The end of an empire is messy at best
And this empire is ending
Like all the rest
Like the Spanish Armada adrift on the sea
We’re adrift in the land of the brave
And the home of the free
Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye"
Frightening words. Yet, the conviction behind them is what alerted many to action.
Obama's cabinet appointments, the selection of Rick Warren, confuses the left and gives pause to thought from many on the right. Or is it simple confusion as it is meant to be?
Joan Swirsky goes on to examine other issues, and problems that point to the threats made against America's constitution. Swirsky clearly alerts us to what is at stake....TRedwine
