This is a wonderful look at yet more evidence of how President Obama thinks that you are too stupid for all the horrible and untrue information that is out there; the information that he and the United States regulatory czar Cass Sunstein disapprove of. You may all remember not to long ago President Obama gave the commencement speech at Hampton University. In his commencement address he showed once again the disdain he has for opposing viewpoints. His views are made quite clear in this excerpt from the commencement address. President Obama said, “Meanwhile, you’re coming of age in a 24/7 media environment that bombards us with all kinds of content and exposes us to all kinds of arguments, some of which don’t rank all that high on the truth meter. With iPods and iPads; Xboxes and PlayStations; information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment. All of this is not only putting new pressures on you; it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy.” And just so you whiny progressives can’t say I am taking anything out of context here is a link to a transcript of the entire commencement address. Below is the video of our glorious leader stating the above:
Let’s take a moment and think about what he just said here. This statement may seem innocuous on the surface but this kind of rhetoric has been used many times in the past and always to the detriment of the people. Now I know what you are thinking, you think that I am going to compare President Obama to horrible communist dictators of the past which used similar tactics and wording to control the information flow to the people and silence dissenting opinions. While that would be easy to do, I do not put President Obama on the level of those monsters like a lot of other people do. So instead let’s look at similar things in America’s past. A prime example is, a president that in my opinion was a complete piece of progressive garbage, Woodrow Wilson. (He like President Barack Obama, and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton) proudly called himself progressive. But what is a progressive. In short progressives believe in a statist ideology which combines elements of Communistic, and Socialistic government rule.
Back to the good ole pile of crap that Woodrow Wilson signed into law, the Sedition act of 1917. Because of this law his administration imprisoned thousands for speaking out against his social policies. Not only that, but this man that progressives in our current government look up to was a big segregationist. He re-segregated the military, was a blatant racist, and ran newspapers that he disagreed with out of business, just to name a few of his anti-American, anti-constitution policies some of which we are starting to see brought back to life in the current progressive administration. More on that at another time.
The only time that an informed populace is a bad thing is if you are trying to deceive them and strip them of their constitutional rights. I say that based purely on what our current president has said about the constitution which is the glue that holds our natoin together and ensures our freedom. Here is Obama in his words not mine on his view of the constitution:
So in closing it is turning more into an idea of freedom from speech rather than freedom of speech. It is time to wake up America before you sleep your freedoms away.
Until Next Time: Courage
