Social justice: Obama & the left's not-so-hidden agenda
By Lloyd Marcus
I consulted my thesaurus because I thought I have been over-working the word "despicable" in my articles. However, my research confirmed the word best describes what passes for the modern civil rights movement and the Obama administration.
I watched a video in which Al Sharpton concluded MLK fought for social justice. He mischaracterized Dr. King's dream, saying it was to make everything equal in everybody's house. Sharpton said MLK did not fight simply to put one black family in the White House. http://bit.ly/pUWQU6
MLK was a Republican. And yet, Al Sharpton addressed a congregation of ill-informed blacks, lying to them about MLK's mission. Sharpton thrives on keeping racial tension, suspicion, and hate alive.
To maintain relevance and his cherished seat of power at the Democratic Party round table, Sharpton must continue to deliver a mind-numb, monolithic black vote — proving himself to be an asset to the furtherance of their social justice agenda. Thus, Sharpton's hatred of successful conservative blacks such as I. We threaten his gig.
Ironically, Sharpton is guilty of betraying his race, the very crime of which he accuses black conservatives. Imagine the cruelty of not only allowing a person to believe, but reinforcing the lie that the individual is a pauper, all the while seeing a thousand dollar bill in the hopeless person's back pocket unknown to him or her.
This is what Sharpton does to black America when he preaches that they are not equal, while in reality, they are extraordinarily blessed to live in the greatest land of opportunity on the planet for ALL who choose to go for it. Despicable!
Then, there is former Obama administration Green Jobs Adviser Van Jones. Jones is another strong advocate for social justice. Incredibly, this man truly believes fairness is government making everyone's life equal. http://bit.ly/hG5TCR
Jones was forced to resign when Glenn Beck and others raised heck. However, Obama would not have appointed the anti-traditional America radical socialist in the first place unless he agreed with Jones. My fellow Americans, we're in deep trouble.
Patriots, the concept of social justice (government making everyone's life equal) is insane, absurd, and evil. It completely nullifies the human spirit, ambition, and freedom to be all one can be and American Exceptionalism — things which have made America great.
In typical mindless "make himself feel good" fashion, a lib once told me, "Everyone deserves to live in a mansion." While sounding compassionate, his statement is idiotic.
When I was 9 years old, my family moved into a brand new government-funded housing project, an eleven-story building. As per my recollection, most residents trashed the building. Only a handfull displayed gratitude, pride of ownership, and respect for their homes. Poverty-minded "gimme" parasites would turn a mansion into a ghetto.
As I said, the concept of social justice, government attempting to manufacture equal overcomes, is totally un-American and just plain nuts. And yet, this is obviously Obama's agenda.
And what does the first black president do to begin implementing his social justice utopia? The thug who thinks he is king divisively, irresponsibly, and mercilessly drags all opposition out into the public square and brands them racist. Despicable!
Please take a moment to comprehend the extreme consequence of Obama's promise to "fundamentally transform America." Think of the unmitigated gall and arrogance in his statement.
Who the heck is Obama to change the vision of our Founding Fathers and shred our Constitution which has made us the most powerful, successful, and altruistic nation on the planet in only 235 years? How dare Obama conclude America needs a fundamental transformation. Patriots, where is the outrage?
No one has asked, "Mr president, you vowed to fundamentally transform America. But, into what?"
