Barack
Obama is the best thing that has happened to America in the last 100 years.
Truly, he is the savior of America 's future. He is the best thing
ever.

Despite the fact that he has some of the lowest approval ratings
among recent presidents, history will see Barack Obama as the source of America
's resurrection. Barack Obama has plunged the country into levels of debt that
we could not have previously imagined; his efforts to nationalize health care
have been met with fierce resistance nationwide; TARP bailouts and stimulus
spending have shown little positive effect on the national economy; unemployment
is unacceptably high and looks to remain that way for most of a decade; legacy
entitlement programs have ballooned to unsustainable levels, and there is a
seething anger in the populace.

That's why Barack Obama is such a good
thing for America .

Obama is the symbol of a creeping liberalism that has
infected our society like a cancer for the last 100 years. Just as Hitler is the
face of fascism, Obama will go down in history as the face of unchecked
liberalism. The cancer metastasized to the point where it could no longer be
ignored.

Average Americans who have quietly gone about
their lives, earning a paycheck, contributing to their favorite charities, going
to high school football games on Friday night,
spending their weekends at the beach or on hunting trips - they've gotten off
the fence. They've woken up. There is a level of political activism in this
country that we haven't seen since the American Revolution, and Barack Obama has
been the catalyst that has sparked a restructuring of the American political and
social consciousness.

Think of the crap we've slowly learned to tolerate
over the past 50 years as liberalism sought to re-structure the America that was
the symbol of freedom and liberty to all the people of the world. Immigration
laws were ignored on the basis of compassion. Welfare policies encouraged
irresponsibility, the fracturing of families, and a cycle of generations of
dependency. Debt was regarded as a tonic to lubricate the economy. Our children
left school having been taught that they are exceptional and special, while
great numbers of them cannot perform basic functions of mathematics and
literacy. Legislators decided that people could not be trusted to defend their
own homes, and stripped citizens of their rights to own firearms. Productive
members of society have been penalized with a heavy burden of taxes in order to
support legions of do-nothings who loll around, reveling in their addictions,
obesity, indolence, ignorance and "disabilities." Criminals have been arrested
and re-arrested, coddled and set free to pillage the citizenry yet again.
Lawyers routinely extort fortunes from doctors, contractors and business people
with dubious torts.

We slowly learned to tolerate these outrages, shaking
our heads in disbelief, and we went on with our lives.

But Barack Obama
has ripped the lid off a seething cauldron of dissatisfaction and
unrest.

In the time of Barack Obama, Black Panther
members stand outside polling places in black commando uniforms, slapping
truncheons into their palms. ACORN - a taxpayer-supported organization - is
given a role in taking the census, even after its members were caught on tape
offering advice to set up child prostitution rings. A former Communist is given
a paid government position in the White House as an advisor to the president.
Auto companies are taken over by the government, and the auto workers' union -
whose contracts are completely insupportable in any economic sense - is rewarded
with a stake in the company. Government bails out Wall Street investment bankers
and insurance companies, who pay their executives outrageous bonuses as thanks
for the public support. Terrorists are read their Miranda rights and given free
lawyers. And, despite overwhelming public disapproval, Barack Obama has pushed
forward with a health care plan that would re-structure one-sixth of the
American economy.

I don't know about you, but the
other day I was at the courthouse doing some business, and I stepped into the
court clerk's office and changed my voter affiliation from "Independent" to
"Republican." I am under no illusion that the Republican party is perfect, but
at least they're starting to awaken to the fact that we cannot sustain massive
levels of debt; we cannot afford to hand out billions of dollars in corporate
subsidies; we have to somehow trim our massive entitlement programs; we can no
longer be the world's policeman and dole out billions in aid to countries whose
citizens seek to harm us.

Literally millions of Americans have had
enough. They're organizing, they're studying the Constitution and the Federalist
Papers, they're reading history and case law, they're showing up at rallies and
meetings, and a slew of conservative candidates are throwing their hats into the
ring. Is there a revolution brewing? Yes, in the sense that there is a keen
awareness that our priorities and sensibilities must be radically re-structured.
Will it be a violent revolution? No. It will be done through the interpretation
of the original document that has guided us for 220 years - the Constitution.
Just as the pendulum swung to embrace political correctness and liberalism,
there will be a backlash, a complete repudiation of a hundred years of nonsense.
A hundred years from now, history will perceive the year 2010 as the time when
America got back on the right track. And for that, we can thank Barack Hussein
Obama.
