AN OPEN LETTER TO

PRESIDENT OBAMA

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike

any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.

You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive

Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no

visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth

growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus

don't understand it at its core.

You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned

yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to

publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail..

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America '

crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You scare me because you want to change America to a European style

country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system

with a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly

capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.

You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose

that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of

living in the world.

You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics

against certain banks and corporations.

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from

challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider

opposing points of view from intelligent people.

You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both

omnipotent and omniscient.

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything

you do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the

Limbaugh's, Hannitys, O'Reillys and Becks who offer opposing,

conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will

probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

This letter was sent to the NY Times but they never acknowledged it.

Big surprise. Since it hit the internet, however, it has had over

500,000 hits. Keep it going. All that is necessary for evil to succeed

is that good men do nothing.. It's happening right now.*

Everything you read on the internet is true....... :ugh:




Quite honestly, it sounds like a letter co-written by the "Limbaugh's, Hannitys, O'Reillys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view."

What is your point? The author acknowledges that he wrote it and Obama scares me too. That is at least 5 peoples view. Do you have anything that disproves what is said???

The point being... The above suggests he is currently an executive for Proctor and Gamble does it not?

Don't quote that he is a Proctor and Gamble exec if he is retired.

From the information I can gather from my intranet, he retired way before Obama was elected.

Not trying to stir the pot, I am just saying.

My stand on the issue

Do you have anything that proves what is said?

I have posted stuff on here before that may have had a questionable source. I agreed with all or some of it, so I posted it.
It has been pointed out to me that Snopes has been reliable to use to test it for accuracy.
This did check out with Snopes.

I guess that we could ask: Who is Snopes, and can we trust them?

I am the first to realize that we cannot believe all that is on the Internet, but I know enough about Obama that I do not trust him.

If that makes me an angry white gun carrying racist, then I and my multi raced family will accept that label along with my friends off all colors.

The Czechs, North Koreans, Russians, etc probably could help you out there. ;)

As far as proving that the author is scared of Obama's kind of know-better Democrats, I'd say that's self-evident. If you want to dissect statements like "You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics against certain banks and corporations" or "You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaugh's, Hannitys, O'Reillys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view.", those are a matter of public, and widely reported,record.

History provides much evidence for the progression of governments, most recently the march of socialist governments, over their subjects.

This is all up to your discression to choose to belive it or not. It is awesome that we still have the ability to express our views, at least for a while.

I myself will not wait and see what next election brings us. I have chosen to be politically involved and help to get the best candidates in place that reflect my values. I believe that most people that are on RME would find that those I am pushing for would meet their desires also. We need candidates that push for Constitutional principles, that do not believe that the Constitution is a ''living breathig document''. That being said, that eliminates Obama fron the get go, as well as most of the Democrats.

Bingo!!!

My point is that it sounds like a letter that could've been written by anybody. Ourselves included.

Yes it is, and that's all I've done.

I haven't called anybody a racist or anything else. I'm just casting the shadow of doubt, and I personally doubt that this letter is authentic.

please, no enemiess on RME

Dont get me wrong, I am not suggesting that you called me racist. Obama called me a racist because I dont agree with him. He also mentioned that I would grab onto my guns and God.The God and guns part was correct! Thats about all I feel he has gotten correct.

As far as if the letter is authentic, I believe that it is. Perhaps it is not. It does not matter to me either way. I feel the same way as the author does. Perhaps I should just sign the bottom of the letter and say it was me.

Perhaps you are OK with the direction this country is going. I am OK if you were to feel that way. I am not trying to make an enemy on here. I just feel that the ''Change we can believe in'' is not in our best interest, and we MUST do our part to be informed about all the candidates next election and get candidates with Constitutional values in every available position in November.

I'll signthe bottom of this one,
