SHAME ON THE DEMOCRATS

 Reminiscent of a 1960's era Civil Rights march, Pelosi led a gaggle of her cohorts into the Capitol Building to begin the process of voting to impose the health care bill on the American people.

Martin Luther King, Jr., led marches to end segregation in the South. And he had a dream, which included the opportunity for black Americans to achieve their dreams. To thrive. To make better lives for themselves. To live side by side with white people and share the same aspirations for their children to have even better lives.

During that same era, the Black Panther Party out of Oakland, CA, preached armed revolution. And they devised a 10-point program of demands.

Number 6 - We want completely free health care for all black and oppressed people.

Number 10 - We want land, bread, housing, education, clothing, justice, peace, and people's community control of modern technology.

Martin Luther King, Jr., wanted black Americans to have the right to work and go to good schools. The Black Panthers wanted what they considered reparations, a payback for their ancestors' lives of slavery. But what is the payback? Welfare.

President Obama could have, and should have, instituted programs to help the poor get out of their inner-city hopeless lives.

But, since education is the first priority for that, he hasn't done it. The teachers' unions insist inferior teachers cannot be fired simply because they're not teaching kids to read.

The Black Panthers were a Marxist oriented group as well as believing in Mao's revolution. In fact, members had to study Mao's Little Red Book.

They also believed in the teachings of Malcolm X.

In 1952, Malcolm X joined the Nation of Islam. It was as the number 2 man in that organization that he gained national attention.

Not long after the assassination of President John Kennedy, Malcolm X remarked that Kennedy's chickens had come home to roost.

After twelve years with the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X left the organization on bad terms.

Less than a year later, he was assassinated.

Louis Farrakhan has always been suspected of ordering the murder.

Jeremiah Wright, Obama's mentor and spiritual advisor, has great respect for Farrakhan. In fact, the two of them recently shared a public love-fest where Wright awarded Farrakhan an award for being a "living legend".

The  two have long been friends. In 1984 they travelled together to Libya to meet with Khadafy.

That's the same Khadafy who recently announced a jihad against Switzerland.

And, of course, Jeremiah Wright will forever be known for the words he stole from Malcolm X, when in his sermon after 9/11 he declared America's chickens had come home to roost.

Black Muslims: Marxists,  Maoists.

Nation of Islam: Anti-Semitic. Easy to see why Obama hates Israel.

Louis Farrakhan. He recently warned that Obama might be in danger. A conspiracy theory could be written around that, knowing what happened to Malcolm X when he fell out with Farrakhan.

Jeremiah Wright: A racist, there's no denying it.

But are any of them or their organizations helping the inner-city poor in any constructive way? Helping them get an education? Demanded good schools?

Obviously, Barack Obama knows the Black Panther program, and he chose to achieve those Marxist goals, rather than truly working to help the poor make better lives for themselves.

Black Liberation Theology is a philosophy of victimhood.

And we've seen Obama portray himself as a victim over and over and over again as he complains about "inheriting" problems from the previous administration. As though he's the only President who didn't begin with a blank slate.

Barack Obama campaigned for the Presidency.

He wanted to be President.

And he knew full well what the problems were.

He said he could do the job.

He assured the American people he knew what to do.

Until he was sworn in.

Then he became a victim.

And that seems to be the mind-set he has about the poor. They're victims. Give them free health care. Food. Rent.

Do Barack Obama and Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and Jeremish Wright all believe they are somehow special? Exceptional?

It looks that way.

Don't they know how many African Americans have escaped poverty and made good lives for themselves?

Why do they want to keep the poor in a welfare system?

The inner city can seem like a hopeless prison to a young person who wants more than a Welfare life.

They need a good education.

They don't need pity and an occasional hand-out.

Free health care won't help the poor escape their lives of hopelessness.

Rather than imagining themselves exceptional beings, Obama and Sharpton and the others ought to recognize the fact that all African Americans are capable of achieving their dreams.

While the Democrats have been fighting for various Welfare programs for the last fifty years, waves of Korean and Spanish and Vietnamese and others have come to America and found a way to make a good life for themselves here.

Meanwhile, the inner cities only get worse and worse, no matter how many 'entitlements' are given out. Welfare keeps the poor feeling helpless. Life doesn't get better for them.

Anyone on a fixed income which simply provides the necessities cannot aspire to anything better, because there's no way to make it better.

After the health care bill was signed, one of the black politicians explained his feelings, saying, "There are no more second class citizens. We're all equal now."

Wrong.

We've all been made into second class citizens.

Shame, shame, shame.
