The Shadow of a Past Betrayal


The mainstream mudia reported this week that President Obama had put Medicare and Social Security on the "chopping block" in an effort to reach a budget consensus with the Republicans.

As usual, the mudia does its best to obfuscate rather than to inform. What do the Republicans want? Any imbecile knows that the pet rock and wet dream of the Republican Party is to abolish, kill off, destroy, repeal Social Security and Medicare. Given that fact, words like consensus and compromise have no place in the report. Try this,

Obama has put Medicare and Social Security on the chopping block in order to reach an agreement with those who want to put Medicare and Social Security on the chopping block.

Uh huh....

We never put much stock in Fauxbama. But it ought to be clear by now to even the thickest block of wood that Obama was simply a false flag operation -- a put up job, a mole, a swindler and a fake.

What is stunning is the extent to which so many still don't get it, arguing that what we are seeing is an Obamian Gambit which aims to paint the Republicans into a corner. Bullpucky. What we are seeing is a classic Mutt and Jeff routine, in which Obama plays the consoling good guy to a totally battered middle class America. "Stick with me. I'm doing the best I can."

This is not some unexpected turn of events. Goldman Sachs was a major bankroller of Obama's campaign. Was it any surprise that as millions lost their savings and livelihood, Obama took to the podium to declaim that he did not begrudge Blankfein his millions?

There are some who speak of a "looming" sell out. Nah. What we are witnessing is simply the shadow of a past betrayal.

I was an early Obama enthusiast and donor. I am embarrassed to admit. I suspected a problem, and swept it away, when he promised "hope", which he delivered. Not Help. Which he offered only to his Bankster Buddies. He gives wonder speeches. He is the kind of speaker that can make you grateful for his picking your pocket. But as he picks your pocket, he is fighting wars in 70 countries around the world. That is what he is really doing. Making the world safe for extractors. He doesn't even offer "hope" to the poor. He is getting the numbers he needs just offering it to the middle class. It used to be that the middle class could take care of itself. Now the poor are ignored, slated to become Soylent Green.
