It's All He Really Knows


But there are at least six reasons to fear that Obama will govern from the
far left.

First, it’s all he really knows. Obama grew up in a left-wing household,
attended elite left-wing dominated universities, and spent the remainder of his
formative years as a community organizer alongside the likes of Wright and
Ayers.

Second, it’s how he votes. In 2007, according to the National Journal,
Obama’s voting record was the most liberal of any senator.

Third, it’s what he falls back on. Obama is scripted to be “post-partisan.”
But when off-script he’s liable to blurt out that those who resist the leftist
agenda bitterly “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to those who aren’t like
them.” And when his wife said that, as an adult, she has never been proud of
America, Obama defended her statement as applied to American politics. This is
“god damn America” lite.
