Junction City, Kan., billboards hate Obama, misspell 'Reagan'

​Could Junction City, Kansas, be the Obama hatin'-est town in the country? Your Crap Archivist cruised west to the big J.C. for its Fourth of July festivities. 


At mile 300 on I-70 we spied this doozy of a billboard: "Obama is a Fraud. Demand Resignation Now. God Bless America." We snapped photos of it from the parking lot of the Dreamland Motel, the place Timothy McVeigh holed up in the week before bombing the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City. 


The Dreamland closed last winter, probably due to socialism.

Also, I think their kangaroo got sick.


A mile away we saw this:


junctioncityregan_thumb_400x276.jpg

Point proven! I mean, If government were worth a damn, the schools would have taught agitated billboard-makers to spellcheck! 


More Reagan:


junctioncityreagan3_thumb_400x171.jpg

Other billboards within three miles of these were all angered up about bailouts. "Say No to Government Motors" one read over an image of the Ford logo. I appreciate that they managed to express this sentiment without resorting to an image of Calvin pissing. 


Another: "Wake Up America! No More Bailouts!"  


Incidentally, Junction City is the rare Kansas town whose downtown is not abandoned. Instead, a homey strip of shops, bars, restaurants and coffee shops cater to Fort Riley soldiers and their families, which just goes to show you that government spending never helps anyone ever. 


Anyway, at J.C.'s Sundown Salute we clapped for marching soldiers, observed that the Flint Hills Tea Party booth was peddling crackpot book  The 5,000 Year Leap, and somehow talked Sam Brownback into posing for photos with me even though I hadn't showered and had slept in my clothes.


Rain spat on the parade, but we still had fun. Soldiers chanted "Got a letter in the mail/Go to war or go to jail." We hung near a dad wearing Kiss makeup for some reason, and Junction City folks were sweet and chatty. The American Legion's $6 breakfast boasted tasty hashbrowns. 


Republican senatorial candidate Todd Tiahrt didn't show, but he still got his message out:


junctioncitytiahrt_thumb_400x431.jpg

Back at the Dreamland, the book my girlfriend just happened to be reading this weekend summed it all up pretty well.

maybe that is fine to you but as far as health care. Is he going to bail each and every American out of jail because they can't afford to pick a plan anymore because they don't have a job to pay . His Obama Care is not free. There other things passed under it that Americans  know nothing about. I personally know of someone that was on medicaid because of not being able to find a job.  One of her grandsons took a little job for about 4 hours a day. He is only 17 but took the low pay job to help with the situation. She was cut off of medicaid and told the reason was she made to much money. She was told because her grandson working put her in a bracket. Since she had adopted him that is why it was cut. He made minimum wage at this job. She did not get any of his money. That was so he could have anything he wanted for himself. So there is your government program for you. It has been proven that OB is out to make us a socialist country. And to the one that said George W passed out the stimulus checks to the rich you better go back and check it out Bush gave stimulus checks not only the rich. I am not rich by no means. Work hard just like the rest of the blue collar people and George did not make us pay it back. And oh everyone has been saying how he ran the deficit up. Wrong when Desert Storm happened they spent billions on that war and that was before George JR was in. George junior just had to go back and clean it up to take a slaughter craving maniac out . Trash is always slung in politics but like Ann Barnhardt said ,it is a proven fact where we are at.

I agree, OBAMA is trouble!!!! We need to remove him before this country is ruined. The only people that like him are people that have no faith in GOD. Obama and God are not in the same sentence.

Notta-sunflower,

This is a libtard site. They're trying to make Kansans out to look like backwards inbreds b/c some of us believe in something......God. Good eye and excellent points. The church has nothing to do with the sign, neither does the town of Junction City, though I live near it and FULLY support it. I hope everyone continues thinking we're a bunch of backwards goons b/c I don't want them living here. They can keep their gay marriages and their crime ridden cities. They can also keep their worthless underachievers and I'd prefer that they keep the financial responsibility of supporting such people.

Nice how you got the church sign in there next to the billboard and your girlfriend's book...
Is there something that you are trying to say there... Because you know that that church doesn't own the sign, or have anything to do with the owner of that sign... So I don't really understand what the purpose was of having it in the picture...
You can't do anything about who your neighbors are...

Thanks folks. I'm no better Capt. Obvious. I'm just trolling too. Occasionally I make a statement that reflects my true beliefs, but most of the time I like to just play into the stereotypes of a Kansan. I'm familiar with and include in my social group Hispanics from El Salvador, Mexico, Cuba, Ecuador (sp?), and Honduras. I enjoy their hard-working fun-loving culture. Besides, they like to drink and get stoned so we're like peas in a pod. Like them, I make my living in a meat packing plant, then spend the rest of my time loving my family. They are very similar in this regard.

No blacks around here to speak of. I can't say I have a lot of black friends, but I get along with about the same percentage of them as I do whites. Again, I just like to play into the stereotype.

Gays, I don't care if dudes want to hump each other after a long night at the bar. Marriage between them seems strange and unnecessary, but marriage between man and woman could be viewed as unnecessary too. My lady and I don't need a piece of paper to signify our love for one another.

"Ok, I'll hate you",

No, that's not good enough. You gotta get more mean than that. Besides, you need to make up or misconstrue a few things that people say to really piss them off. Keep trying grasshopper and thanks for playing.

I'm loving this. I've been searching the internet and it sounds like most of the pathetic citizens in this country don't like Kansans. That's good news to me b/c I'd like to have this state all to myself or share it with like-minded people. You can keep the problems associated with being so open-minded and having such f'd up people in your states (crime rates primarily). You can also keep your irresponsible whores that need to kill their babies before they're born. You can keep your gays too b/c my son doesn't need to see that shit in public. I'd like to be a grandfather someday, rather than a gay'sfather. You keep your way of life. I appreciate mine more every time I learn more about yours. We'll run the rest of the yuppies off to live in your state.

What a great state to live in!

Sacremento California is asking for millions of dollars in bailout money. Funny thing is Kansas doesn't need to ask for handouts. Don't worry Jesus, the hard-working folks of KS will continue to support your ridiculous way of life. Keep letting the illegals into your state and you'll continue to be broke and call me a racist for not wanting them here. Them being illegals, not them meaning Hispanics.

Chairman,

Everyone? Get real bud. I wouldn't even suggest that everyone in California is a fag, drug addict, or minority. Stereotypes don't fit every single person in any given area....

We have plenty of you citified yuppies (or love-everybody-hippies) trying to ruin our state too. They'll never succeed though. Kansans are attacked for upholding morality and values. Being gay is not okay folks. It's just not the way things were intended to be. Were any of you born out of a man on man relationship?

Jesus,

You still haven't mentioned any points about how or why you'd consider me "unpatriotic". Just b/c I don't think guys should fuck other guys makes me unpatriotic? Do you think Thomas Jefferson or George Washington were fags? Do you think they supported the non-working worthless portion of the population with their paychecks?

Please, just tell me how it is that I'm not patriotic. What is patriotism to you? Living a self-righteous lifestyle with no respect for the opinions of others?

I know you're so much better than me b/c you come from the concrete jungle and it takes you 2 hours to drive 10 miles to work, but I just don't understand what has been said here that would make you feel like you love this country more than I do.

It is apparent we'll never get along. There's nothing you could say to make me think you're right and the same goes the other way around. I'll stay in KS till I die. You should stay in Cali until the ocean swallows it. There's a reason we live here and you live there. Enjoy your life the way it is and I'll continue to enjoy mine. Don't think we all believe the walking on water story in the "good" book though. That's a good stereotype, but like all stereotypes, not everyone fits it.

Again genius, how do we stop him? I hate seeing the fuck picketing veteran funerals. What am I going to do? Stoop to the ghetto level (more your style I assume) and do a drive by? Fucking idiot, shut up."

Again, The unpatriotic pissant speaks up.
"I don't like what he does but I don't use my own rights to oppose him. HE is a big scary church /lawyer man (and I secretly like what he does). My Great grand daddy fought those evil nazi's that said and did similar things but I am to scared to make my grand daddy proud." Real Patriots dare to do the tough things, when did you serve in the military anyway?

Where do I get my food from? my local farmers market and my local bison rancher.

Why what store do you buy your giant agro-corp crap from?

"We're accepting of immigrants"
Yeah but Pedro best know that he can't get uppity and ask for a real wage cause we know hows to treats boys like that, and Maria best just keep cleaning up my hotel room and best not tell the cops when she finds my seeds and papers after I've gone.

Sorry just finishing what you really wanted to say but were not man enough too.

"Where are you from dipshit? California? There's a state to be proud of."
So a state having the eighth largest economy in the world is a bad thing to you?
A state that has a gross state product (GSP) that is about $1.85 trillion, which is 13% of the United States gross domestic product.

Comparing the state you love to bad mouth to the mighty economic powerhouse of Kansas with GSP of $122.7 billion, we get..... Kansas aint poop in a cat box (or the poop in a American Talibans bible)

"Let me guess, you're a f'n homo too."
And here is were we see the unpatriotic persons true colour.
Lets see if I can decipher your strategy here, "When trying to disparage someone , remember to call them that which I really want to come out and say I am, but are to scared to admit (man but Freds butt looks real good in them overall's)"
And to answer your question, No , I am not a homo, (but my boyfriend is (dah-dum-pa)) but unlike you I do not have a problem with another person due to their sexual orientation.

Oh, by the way.
How many of those farms that you seem so proud of were originally acquired through the homestead act?
You know that act, where the native people and real owners of the land where killed or enslaved or forced to move to swamp land 1100 miles away?

so to sum it up,
You are proud to be an unpatriotic, homophobic descendant of land thieves and think that you will get in heaven because you follow a book that was finished being edited 315 years after the main characters passing.

Yep you really showed me I am wrong about people from Kansas.

Sure he has the right to say what ever he wants. That does not mean that there has to be no consequences to him and his for what he says.

Again, this persons statement just shows that people in Kansas are not patriotic, it shows that people in Kansas Support this moronic American Taliban asswipe. You top that off with KNOW_NOTHINGS like ANN and those that support her views and it makes a whole lot of sense to just close the boarders of Kansas and eliminate anyone trying to get out.
Once they are all gone then we have somewhere to put all the hard working immigrants that would make this country much better then those sick, twisted , moronic sacks that live in Kansas now.

The only good thing to come from Kansas was Eisenhower, and that was more then 50 years ago.

Why should America Care what Kansas has to say about anything?
Lets see some stats:
1,174,668 people in the 10 largest cities
Modernly known for wheat fields, oil-well derricks, herds of cattle, and grain-storage elevators.
Raises corn, sorghum, oats, barley, soybeans, and potatoes.
Known in the past for being the boyhood home of Eisenhower and Dodge City
Per Capita Personal Income in the year 2006 $34,799
In 2006 Kansas Received $2,755,000,000 in Procurment from the Federal Government
And lets not forget the thing that seems to really represent Kansas: The Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas. That wonderful group that has made Kansas synonymous with picketing funerals of fallen soldiers and desecrating the American flag.


As a comparison lets use Arizona
3,593,600 people in it 8 largest cities
Modernly known for producing over half of the country's copper.
Known in the past for the slaughter of the great Indian chiefs Geronimo and Cochise, for Tombstone.
10's of millions of international visitors come to the state to see the Grand Canyon, the Petrified Forest, the Painted Desert, Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, Fort Apache, and the reconstructed London Bridge at Lake Havasu City.
Per Capita Personal Income in the year 2006 $31,936
In 2006 Kansas Received $10,625,000,000 in Procurment from the Federal Government

America and the government should listen to AZ more simply by the fact that there are more folks already living their, the government is already giving them more money, and 10's of millions of more people SEE Arizona more then they see Kansas.

Honestly , the rest of the country needs to get together and just build a giant dome over kansas and pump out all the air. Leave it for a year and plow the bodies into the ground for fertilizer. America would be better off with out Kansas and the garbage that comes out of it.

"Ann Barnhardt says:" Continued
"3. His willful, conscious failure to enforce the laws of the nation, namely in regards to securing the southern border and in enforcing voter intimidation laws. He has openly failed to do these things, in direct violation of his oath of office, for purely political reasons. This constitutes treason."

So by keeping in place the same policies that were placed by the last administration and doing the same actions that were done by the last administration is treason?
Did you call out the Bush administration for treason for doing the same actions?

"4. His willful failure to do ANYTHING about the oil spill. His failure to suspend the Jones Act so that private vessels could quickly go to the Gulf and start skimming, laying containment boom, etc. Willfully ignoring or rejecting dozens upon dozens of offers from all over the world to contribute vessels and technological assistance, even failing to deploy U.S.-owned vessels for no reason whatsoever. Even igniting the slick to prevent it from ravaging the coasts and inland waterways would have been preferable to doing absolutely nothing."

So those picture I have seen of flaming oil on the ocean surface..... Optical illusions?
One question, who will pay for the "private vessels "to" quickly go to the Gulf and start skimming, laying containment boom"?
Who will pay for the equipment? Who will organize/ coordinate all these private vessels?
Please tell me what John McCain and Sarah Palin would have done differently, what would they have done to have gotten the spill stopped by this time?

What your asking to do is another bail out. I thought your types were all against bail outs

"This intentional dereliction of sworn duty constitutes treason."
The funny thing about this statement is that it also covers every republican in congress that is not voting on bills or getting items out of committee. They are not doing the duties of governing that they took an oath to do.

"5." gd said it pretty good "a "hard-core Marxist-Leninist," that's just name calling with no reference to what those names mean. Would a Marxist have bailed out Wall Street? Hell no! And Obama never called himself "post racial," that was idiot editorial writers."

6. Since Obama was adopted by his step-father, Lolo Soetoro, he is a dual-citizen of the United States and Indonesia. All such adoptions in Indonesia required and/or conferred Indonesian citizenship to the child. It is possible, but as yet unproven due to Obama's stonewalling, the he traveled internationally, as an adult, under an Indonesian passport. Regardless, his dual-citizenship makes him ineligible for the office of the Presidency. This constitutes treason."

Wow, you have never ever looked at citizenship laws or requirements have you?
Have you ever read the part of the constitution on who can be the POTUS
it states a NATURAL citizen.
and as far as the US is concerned people who meet the requirements for being a Natural Citizen can also have dual citizenship as well. Or are you trying to use some odd ball reading from the 14th amendment?

From the Indonesian Gov's web site on how to get citizenship
"What If You're Not Married to an Indonesian Citizen?
1. Aged 18 (eighteen) or married;
2. At the time of forwarding the application has resided in Indonesian territory for at least 5 (five) consecutive years or at least 10 (ten) years intermittently;
3. Sound in health and mind;
4. Able to speak Bahasa Indonesia and acknowledges the state basic principles of Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution;
5. Was never legally prosecuted due to acts of crime and sentenced jail for 1 (one) year or more;
6. Upon acquiring Indonesian Citizenship will relinquish any other citizenship;
7. Employed and/or has a steady income, and
8. Pay a naturalization fee to the Government Treasury.
(A foreign child aged below 21 and unmarried, who is adopted by an Indonesian, will be eligible for Indonesian citizenship if the process does not cause dual citizenship.)
Source: Draft revision of citizenship law No. 62/1958"

So right there is the reason that HE can't have Indonesian citizenship as then he would have DUAL citizenship then.

What was that? Did you just say well then his parents just renounced his US citizenship for him.

oh that little thing
This should cover that.
Please note:
From
"Section 349(F)(5) of the Immigration and Nationality Act
F. RENUNCIATION FOR MINOR CHILDREN

Parents cannot renounce U.S. citizenship on behalf of their minor children. Before an oath of renunciation will be administered under Section 349(a)(5) of the INA, a person under the age of eighteen must convince a U.S. diplomatic or consular officer that he/she fully understands the nature and consequences of the oath of renunciation, is not subject to duress or undue influence, and is voluntarily seeking to renounce his/her U.S. citizenship. "

From
"Section 349(B)(5) of the Immigration and Nationality Act
B. ELEMENTS OF RENUNCIATION

A person wishing to renounce his or her U.S. citizenship must voluntarily and with intent to relinquish U.S. citizenship:

1. appear in person before a U.S. consular or diplomatic officer,
2. in a foreign country (normally at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate); and
3. sign an oath of renunciation

Renunciations that do not meet the conditions described above have no legal effect. Because of the provisions of section 349(a)(5), Americans cannot effectively renounce their citizenship by mail, through an agent, or while in the United States. In fact, U.S. courts have held certain attempts to renounce U.S. citizenship to be ineffective on a variety of grounds, as discussed below."

So Where is the signed Oath of renunciation?

The laws forbidding dual citizenship were struck down by the US Supreme Court in two cases: a 1967 decision, Afroyim v. Rusk, as well as a second ruling in 1980, Vance v. Terrazas. (with exceptions made for newly naturalized citizens)

The official US State Department policy on dual citizenship today is that the United States does not favor it as a matter of policy because of various problems they feel it may cause, but the existence of dual citizenship is recognized (i.e., accepted) as a fact of life.

Also The State Department info on dual citizenship cases says that the current guidelines for ascertaining intent to keep US citizenship are applicable retroactively to past cases.

As for a Dual citizen not being able to hold the office is complete bunk, It is just a Naturalized citizen that holds dual citizenship is not eligible.

Did you know that John McCain, the 2008 Republican candidate, was born in the Panama Canal Zone in 1936 to American parents. Would you be saying that he is not eligible to run for POTUS then?

As for the rest of your drivel about slick Willy and such - well it is your opinion and you are free to state your opinion (at least until the republicans come back into power in another 6.5 years or so.)

And to me your only real reason that you HATE the President of the US so much is the fact that is is Half Black and every other disproven lie is just a cover for it.

I wonder who would have first proposed such a horrible act? Oh yeah,President Ronald Reagan, in Geneva on 29 June 1982. Reagan proposed a dramatic reduction in strategic forces in two phases, which he referred to as SALT III at the time.
My god what a treasonous act committed by such traitorous people. Surely you must have been standing on the roof tops calling both of them out for their "treasonous" actions. You did, didn't you?

So Since START I expired December 5, 2009, that means (gasp) George W Bush supported this treaty for the entire term of his tenure. Did you call his support of this measure "treasonous"? Why not? It was under his watch that the US had to dismantle a large part of it's stock pile.

or do you mean the The New START Treaty?
< STrategic Arms Reduction Treaty) (Russian: ???-III) is a bilateral nuclear arms reduction treaty between the United States and the Russian Federation that was signed in Prague on April 8th, 2010>

So let's see
Start1 - barred its signatories from deploying more than 6,000 nuclear warheads atop a total of 1,600 ICBMs, submarine-launched ballistic missiles, and bombers.

New Start - the treaty will limit the number of deployed strategic nuclear warheads to 1,550, and it will limit to 800 the number of deployed and non-deployed inter-continental ballistic missile (ICBM) launchers, submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) launchers, and heavy bombers equipped for nuclear armaments. Also it will limit the number of deployed ICBMs, deployed SLBMs, and deployed heavy bombers equipped for nuclear armaments to 700

(Oh by the way did you know that the treaty defines a missile with multiple reentry vehicles as 1 war head as well as defining a bomber that carries multiple devices as 1 warhead)
Oh and by the way the US has 14 Ohio Class Missile subs now.
The number of boomers were much higher 41 to be exact untill the enactment of the salt treaties (you remember Reagan signed that one.

So 14 subs each capable of carrying 24 missiles each comes to 336 SLBM's which leaves 364 carry vehicles left.
A majority of whats left will be heavy bombers that are in the air pretty much on a continuous basis so they are not sitting targets.

So signing a treaty that fully stocks our Submarine contingent, fully stocks our heavy bombers, that reduces the number of ground targets that have civilian populations living by them is a treasonous action to you?

2. Continued again "the stunning abandonment of Poland and Czecheslovakia and our missile defense systems there"
fromhttp://www.cnn.com/2009/WO...
on Wed March 18, 2009:"The Czech prime minister canceled a vote to allow the United States to put a key part of its planned missile defense system in the Central European country. Prime Minister Miroslav Topolanek said he called off the vote for fear his government would lose but added he could still put the two treaties up for a vote in parliament at a later date."

Both Poland and the Czech Republic are members of NATO and the European Union.

So by NOT ignoring a fellow NATO members' national boarder and their decision he is a traitor?
What would you have had him do? Invade and take out their government and then put the weapons system in place?

The US missile defense complex in Poland was to consist of up to 10 silo-based interceptors.(So we had a chance to intercept up to 10 long range ICBMs out of a possible 700 inbound).

In April 2007, President Putin warned that Russia was prepared to abandon its obligations under a Nuclear Forces Treaty of 1987 (as a reminder- that treaty eliminated nuclear and conventional ground-launched ballistic and cruise missiles with intermediate ranges, defined as between 500-5,500 km (300-3,400 miles))

So America would be protected from being hit by 10 missiles and our NATO alliance members are faced with several thousand short and medium ranged medium nukes and the interceptors that caused it all can't protect from them.

And this is traitorous in what way?

A foreign opinion�

Ok, I�m not an American�so feel free to say �This is none of your business, go back to work!�.
I�m Irish actually, it�s one of those small, wet islands on the other side of the Atlantic! ?
It�s only because I travelled through the US back when I was in University that I thought I�d toss in my opinion, might add some perspective.

What I find funny is that in Ireland I�m basically considered a right-wing guy, with conservative opinions on government policy, but I don�t think this would translate to the U.S.
As a �European Conservative� I still believe in a few things that most in the U.S would attribute to left-wing nuts.
I.E Free Education all the way up to University level, Universal Healthcare etc.

In my opinion, my own country has drifted too far to the left.
For example, if you�re unemployed your basic dole / job seeker�s entitlement is ~$260 a week. There are people that spend years on the dole because it�s not far off what you�d earn with a minimum wage job when you take your additional entitlements into account. If you�re a young woman with a child and nobody to support you (and you can�t work because you�re looking after the kid), the government will pay your rent, you�ll get additional �single parent� allowances�the list goes on. Now I don�t want to seem mean here, but I think my own country just can�t afford to be paying out all these excessive payments. It�s this opinion (and others) that makes me right-wing.

But I digress, the point I�m trying to make here is:
Most left-wing people in the US, in a global perspective, really aren�t that left-wing at all�which means that the extreme right are truly scary!

Would it really hurt to have education free for everyone?
Or free healthcare?

I can�t imagine living in a country where this isn�t standard.
When I was travelling in the States, on a train from New Orleans to L.A I got talking to a guy of similar age who was in the U.S army, on his way to Iraq.
He said that he only joined because the military would subsidise / pay for his college education.
I told him I was studying a degree in engineering back home�he asked me how I managed to afford everything.
He just couldn�t believe it when I told him that University is free for all citizens as long as you meet the entry requirements.
In fact, I was given ~$1,500 a year to help with books etc (and buying cheap beer of course).

And I recently had to get surgery done to repair a perforated ear-drum.
Without private healthcare insurance, I had to wait a few months for the surgery�but it was all free, except for some admit charges.
If this happened to someone in the States without insurance, and they couldn�t afford the surgery, would they just be left with a hole in their head?? ?

Final point � you guys shouldn�t worry about Obama, cause you have a LOOOOOOOONG way to drift left.
And who knows, you might enjoy living in a country where you don�t have to worry about saving for your kid�s education! :P

Bush was the one that was the fraud on that one, Ann.

"on a scale where 0 is communist and 20 is facist, Obama is from 8 to 11 depending on issue,"

No, an economically illiterate socialist dictator who nationalized private companies like GM and Chrysler.....then gave ownership of them to his union thugs as repayment for their vote......would not be a centrist. And suing a state whose law merely upholds federal anti-illegal immigration statute again shows Obama to be anything but a centrist.

Obama's presidency will go down as the greatest example of the failure of Affirmative Action.

There are some kooky right-wingers in these comments - repeating well documented and disproven lies like they are brand new. Obama and the Dems in Congress are all Centrists - the Repugs like to think they are socialists because they are so far left of themselves, but they have moved as far to the right as they can go without admitting they are full-fledged facists. To those who don't know, a facist is as far right-wing as you can go, like communist is as far left as you can go - on a scale where 0 is communist and 20 is facist, Obama is from 8 to 11 depending on issue, while Rush, Palin and Beck are 18s and Cheney and Bush are 19.5.

Before govt can spend a dime, it must first take it from you and I in the form of taxes.....which removes wealth from the people and free market system.

We have the debt we have due to a wasted surplus (from Clinton era), unnecessary wars and tax cuts for the rich (from Bush era) and a financial meltdown (more from the "free markets will manage "x'" Bush era).

Clearly facts are not necessary in the Junction City world view.

Ann, with the exception of the Indonesian stuff, I could make a similar list calling Bush or Clinton or the other Bush or Reagan or any president ever a traitor. (Same holds for the deficit, except Clinton brought it down!) Take #3, Reagan advocated amnesty and Bush just plain old didn't give a shit about the issue.
Then #6, a "hard-core Marxist-Leninist," that's just name calling with no reference to what those names mean. Would a Marxist have bailed out Wall Street? Hell no! And Obama never called himself "post racial," that was idiot editorial writers.

Hi Guys-
I don't know to what extent you are keeping up with current events, so if you already know this stuff, please don't think that I'm talking down to you. Here is how Obama is a traitor:
1. He has and continues to run up debt and unfunded government mandates that can only result in an economic collapse. He is consciously trying to destroy our economy and the US Dollar as the global reserve currency. This constitutes treason.
2. He has and continues to undercut and weaken our defense position in the world to the point of near-surrender. The START treaty, the stunning abandonment of Poland and Czecheslovakia and our missile defense systems there, his boot-licking of the muslim world and Marxist dictators while spitting in the face of the U.K. and Israel, our two greatest allies. These acts are conscious, willful, and are intended to weaken the U.S. on the global stage. This is treason.
3. His willful, conscious failure to enforce the laws of the nation, namely in regards to securing the southern border and in enforcing voter intimidation laws. He has openly failed to do these things, in direct violation of his oath of office, for purely political reasons. This constitutes treason.
4. His willful failure to do ANYTHING about the oil spill. His failure to suspend the Jones Act so that private vessels could quickly go to the Gulf and start skimming, laying containment boom, etc. Willfully ignoring or rejecting dozens upon dozens of offers from all over the world to contribute vessels and technological assistance, even failing to deploy U.S.-owned vessels for no reason whatsoever. Even igniting the slick to prevent it from ravaging the coasts and inland waterways would have been preferable to doing absolutely nothing. He has willfully done this so that the horrific optics of the damage to the coast can be used as propaganda to justify the forcing through of Cap&Trade (designed to further destroy the U.S. economy) and to suspend offshore oil drilling (again, designed to hurt the U.S. and help his cronies such as George Soros who owns 51% of PetroBras). This intentional dereliction of sworn duty constitutes treason.
5. Obama is a hard-core Marxist-Leninst but held himself out to the people of the U.S. during the campaign as a centrist and as "post-racial". While all politicians are liars to one extent or another, Obama's mischaracterization of himself and his intentions surpass the expected level of "political lying" by many orders of magnitude. His entire persona and agenda are a massive fraud - so massive, in fact, that they constitute treason.
6. Since Obama was adopted by his step-father, Lolo Soetoro, he is a dual-citizen of the United States and Indonesia. All such adoptions in Indonesia required and/or conferred Indonesian citizenship to the child. It is possible, but as yet unproven due to Obama's stonewalling, the he traveled internationally, as an adult, under an Indonesian passport. Regardless, his dual-citizenship makes him ineligible for the office of the Presidency. This constitutes treason.
There is more, but I think that hits the high points. This isn't a matter of me simply disagreeing with Obama on political matters. I disagree with Bill Clinton on political matters. I do not, for a second, think that Bill Clinton was or is a traitor. I hated Bill Clinton while he was in office, but would give my right arm to throw Obama out and let Bill Clinton finish his term. I'd be all for that if someone could wave a magic wand and make it happen. Bill Clinton is an American and wanted to see the U.S. thrive. I disagree with how he went about it, and certainly have problems with his personal morality, but don't think he hated this country. Barack Obama, on the other hand, HATES this country viscerally, views it as the "enemy" and is actively trying to destroy it. He was raised by hard-core communists and has continued to associate closely and intimately with radical anti-American Marxists and terrorists of every stripe throughout his life. The man is a traitor and a complete fraud. I pray that the Republic survives him, and learns to be more vigilant about researching our elected officials.

Best regards-
Ann Barnhardt
