Starring President Obama,  as the Don of Con
By Stanley Zir and Susan North  
 
It is 2011, nearly three months after the November  elections. Incredibly, Mr. Obama is again attempting to replace our free market  system of competitive ideas with a Red Chinese American-style,  government-controlled economy. That would be fine if the US Communist party  would have won the elections, but it did not. It is time to close the curtain on  this side show carnie barker, and his cure-all elixir scam.
After working for more than 20 years in the slums of New York City, I  find it easy to spot a con artist, and I have learned that you always have to  stay three or four steps ahead of the con, to keep that person’s scam under  raps.
The Obama Con is always on. He is an eloquent speaker who uses  words to trick us. He manipulates the facts and keeps us off balance. He knows  how to cover the tracks of his failed policies and push his Marxist agenda  forward. He is a master of deception – a chameleon in stealth mode – co-opting  our founders’ dream for a more perfect Union as if they were born to fulfill his  dream. He knows just what to say, so even the so-called intelligent among us are  left spellbound, gasping for breath after his speeches.
The question is  how to derail the Obama Con Express before it departs towards the 2012  Presidential elections. One way is to expose the technique he uses time after  time to deceive the American Public, “before” he addresses the American People  on any issue of great significance.
Once his modus operandi (smoke and  mirrors) is fully exposed, the American public can kick back and watch him make  a fool of himself on national TV. We need a little levity in these tough times.  Why not let this public servant do what he does best – humor us!
Let’s  take a look at what has occurred in the two short weeks leading up to his State  of the Union speech this Tuesday as he sets us all up for the fall:
Last  week, in Doha, Qatar, Secretary of State Clinton was unusually direct in dealing  with the leaders of the Arab League. She delivered a stark warning to these  leaders with unusually blunt remarks on their violation of human rights,  business corruption and other issues. WOW!  When, during the last two years,  have we ever heard her talk like this to the Arabs? Never!
In the same  week, she again pulled China’s coat about not being strong with North Korea, and  about China’s violation of human rights. The most populous nation in the world  must be shivering in their boots!
Back at the White House, a deal was  closed on some business with the Chinese extortionist, I mean, President, Hu  Jintao. President Hu was semi-admonished for China’s violation of human rights  and manipulation of currency at an open press conference by our beloved con  artist. Now he can inform the America people that he can work with Red China to  stimulate our economy, create jobs, and stand strong against China’s violation  of human rights and her threats to undermine our currency.
His errand  boy, Eric Holder, a.k.a. the Attorney General, just announced the rounding up of  127 Mafia boys. What a defender of freedom – the greatest attack in American  history against organized crime! The last time we heard from Eric Holder, he was  opposing Arizona’s right to defend her own sovereignty.
Last Friday,  General Electric’s CEO, Jeffrey Immelt, was appointed the head of the Council on  Jobs and Competitiveness; this, despite GE’s manufacture of jet engines and  components in China, not in the USA. General Electric also has a nasty track  record of selling products to Iran. This is a curious vote of confidence -  appointing the leader of an American company which supplies Iran with components  that can be used against our troops.
But Immelt champions an Obama, Al  Gore, Go Green initiative, and he is going to be the go-between form the White  House with Wall Street. Big Business in bed with the White House - sounds more  like a Communist initiative than one made in the USA. This Administration seems  to have more faith in growth under the Chinese system than under the American  capitalist system. Perhaps this is their way of saying to us that we must create  a “level playing field” between us and our Red Chinese brethren.
But,  the biggest con of all, is  Obama’s claim that “the American people want both  parties to work together to get things done.”  No, no, no – the American people  voted in November to upend Congress so that  Obama, his agenda and the  out-of-control spending would be stopped. Washington has already done too much –  now we want it undone.
There is no doubt that Obama is still up to his  old tricks. The past two weeks he positioned himself to appear as a strong  leader.. Now he is in the perfect position to make his case at the State of  Union  for increase government spending by investing in growth industries,  modernize our infrastructure, create jobs, reduce debt and in order to compete  in the global economy – He can accomplish this ruse because he continues to  fabricate the lie that our old way of doing business in America  almost led to  her financial collapse-  the truth is the financial crisis was due to the  ill-conceived political and economic ideologies of his party. 
Who is  going to disagree with Mr. Obama – the Republicans who are holding hands with  the Democrats at the State of the Union? The fun part will be to observe how  Obama dresses up his Communist pig and creates the illusion of a shift to the  center.
Republicans: if you are to be successful you need to stay at  least three steps ahead of President Obama and expose his “Con” – every day,  every step of the way – not just in the little remaining time before his State  of the Union speech, but until the very day he leaves the White House. 
We need to explicitly address the Obama Con as the name of the game he  is playing. It has been played particularly aggressively in the last two weeks  to manipulate the truth before his State of the Union speech. We must expose his  con before he delivers his mid-term address.  Afterwards, when the opposition  responds to Obama’s words, it will be too late - as too many Americans will have  already drunk the Kool-Aid.
A world-renowned comedian, W.C. Fields,  summed it up perfectly when he said, “Never Give a Sucker an Even Break.” The  American People have been suckered time and time again – it is time to stop  it.
Our State of the Union is only strong when the American People and  Government adhere to the Constitution. It can never be strong when Government  fails to uphold the Constitution, and it can be especially weakened when there  aggressive attempts to overthrow it.
My fellow Republicans: The  President keeps conning you into compromising your position, and too many of you  keep buying into the scam. The American people do not want “agreement” or  “bipartisanship” with Obama’s agenda. In November, they voted to stop him, and  everything he represents. They did not vote to have our newly elected officials  be eaten by the Big Bad Wolf.

(Click HERE: http://thefortworthpress.com/2010/10/31/america-and-israel-enter-the-death-zone-part-1/) This essay shines light on the full range of issues that must be dealt  with if Liberty’s noble enterprise is to survive: Israel, Iran, the Road Map,  the United Nations and America’s domestic and foreign policy. In this essay, it  is written:
“Leading up to the midterm elections, all  that we have heard from all parties are concerns about our domestic policies,  while, in reality, the greatest threat to our nation and the free world is the  present foreign policy. Now, more than two months later, the threat  remains.”
