Part Two: Character of a King, opps sorry, I meant President

I think that the following remark by our Candidate of Change sums up the true character of a "wanna-be King": "Don't think we're not keeping score, brother." to Rep. Peter DeFazio, after the Democratic congressman voted against the stimulus bill. Score-keeping was apparent when Samantha Power, who resigned from the Obama campaign after calling Hillary Rodham Clinton a "monster," was hired to a position on the National Security Council. (My mind's eye flashed: Following this "monster" remark, I see Obama and Samantha off in a secluded corner high-fiving!)

Other King-like examples: 1. Firing Rick Wagoner as president of GM. 2. Threatening to fire Vikram Pandit as CEO of Citigroup. 3. Threatening to fire anyone the administration doesn't like from any company.

Age of fear grows for everyone who dares to speak against the Administrations actions. If you are not supporting the first black president then you must be rascist! "Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards." -- Attorney General Eric Holder

Character of Integrity: In a letter to Dmitri Medvedev, Obama offered to drop plans for a missile shield in Europe in exchange for Russia's help in resolving the nuclear weapons issue in Iran. Medvedev said he would not "haggle" on Iran and the missile shield.

Or this tidbit of news: Backtracking on a campaign promise he made to black farmers, Obama significantly lowered the amount of money they could claim in a discrimination settlement against the Agricultural Department. "I can't figure out for the life of me why the president wouldn't want to implement a bill that he fought for as a US senator," said John Boyd, head of the National Black Farmers Association.

How about this for campaign promises: Obama asked Congress for an extra $83.4 billion to fund operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, a special funding measure of the kind he opposed while in the senate.

Now here is a sample of Obama honesty: "While the online question portion of the White House town hall was open to any member of the public with an Internet connection, the five fully identified questioners called on randomly by the president in the East Room were anything but a diverse lot. They included: a member of the pro-Obama Service Employees International Union, a member of the Democratic National Committee who campaigned for Obama among Hispanics during the primary; a former Democratic candidate for Virginia state delegate who endorsed Obama last fall in an op-ed in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star; and a Virginia businessman who was a donor to Obama's campaign in 2008." -- Washington Post, 3/27

Character of honesty? After saying he wouldn't have lobbyists in his administration, Obama made 17 exceptions in the first two weeks in office. There's a president we can trust to keep his word! (that's sarcasm)

A president shows his real beliefs: For an April 14 speech at Georgetown, the administration asked the university to cover up all signs and symbols -- including the letters "IHS" in gold, a symbol for Jesus.
