Please stop criticizing our president for each and every little thing. In all fairness, our problems are not his fault. Remember that it was America, not Barack Obama, who ignored his vapor-thin resumé as a business leader or administrator.
It was Americans who ignored Obama’s extremely radical and very troubling associations (Obama’s political mentor — socialist Saul Alinsky; Obama’s spiritual mentor — Rev. Jeremiah Wright; “Weatherman” Bill Ayers; Tony Rezko, George Soros, PLO associate Rashid Kalidi and the list goes on and on). It is America that is so infected and indoctrinated by leftist ideology and political correctness in our schools, media, politics, courts and entertainment, that a poser and fraud like Obama would even dare run for office. It is America that is not combating these pernicious influences on our families, culture, and most importantly, our Christian faith.
The responsibility for his complete incompetence lies with us and our cultivated ignorance. We elected him. We elected a man who travels internationally to apologize for our every fault and brazenly does so without once mentioning America’s innate goodness or historic contribution to the world. We put in office an unknown quantity who literally bows down to tyrants, dictators and Saudi princes (but I repeat myself there). A president that sides with a domestically and internationally designated terrorist organizations (Hamas) instead of our ally, and the only democracy in the region, Israel.
And although there are plenty more examples, it has now become clear that when we, as a nation. turned our backs on our Creator who gave us the “unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” and on all our forefathers who had always preserved our country, we went ahead and caused an Obama. We are the ones to blame.
