Alright guys, seriously I am sorry for writing so much about Obama but I feel it is very important for everyone to understand all aspects of our soon to be president, I am writing this out of love for me peoples you knowatimsayn? haha
I came across a few other things I think are important to consider about our future president. Obama wants to create a “people’s army”, which if you know from your history books, is not good AT ALL!
“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set,” said Obama on July 2, 2008. “We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”
Which means putting just as much money into a second army as we do in the one we already have, a few trillion or so bucks. He has stated that he wants it to be 250,000 people strong to begin with, which would consist of volunteers devoted to “America” or “Freedom” led by Obama.
Remember Hitler had the brown shirts, Hitler Youth, SA, and SS. Mao has a people’s army, so did Fidel Castro, as did most any other communist and socialist country in our worlds history. Dolores Umbridge had the Inquisitorial Squad. Now don’t get me wrong the idea of “spreading the wealth around” sounds good, but as history has shown, there has never ever been a successful communist country, not so many socialist countries either.
A people’s army for the purpose of homeland security is a frightening idea in the name of stopping terrorism. I don’t think that having troops actually stationed in our towns and neighborhoods constitutes freedom. Look at the witch hunts http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witch-hunt or more recently the red scare http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_scare. Anyone, for disagreeing with the powers at be, could be dubbed a “witch” or “communist” and could be imprisoned for any number of years or put to death. I hope the new key word when disagreeing with Obama isn’t “Terrorist”.
Don’t take my word for it though, please research this if it concerns you. There are many parallels between what Obama wants to do and the start of a socialist society. Maybe I am just being paranoid or crazy, which I hope this is the case, but I know I am not the only one who thinks this way.
Please vote and vote for who you believe in though.

Good post Andy. I agree and fear the United States taking steps towards Socialism and Communism. These next four years will be very interesting indeed.

Hey no problem. I mean to post more on here but sadly don’t have the internet to do so all the time. As I write this, Obama is our president elect and probably choosing his panel and advisors. Stockpile seeds and if you are into it, guns. Just make sure you are not relying on the government to take care of all your needs. Please with each passing day, week, month, and year be paying attention to our world (not just mainstream media, but foreign media as well) and be wary of this so called “fairness doctrine”, at its heart it is really a stab at freedom of speech. As Jesus said, endure each day with faith hope and love, the greatest being love.
Brian, you have no idea how bad I want to start a band with you. Lets do it. XXX
