The following
is written by Dr. Sowell, and I
quote:
"The current
Occupy Wall Street movement is the best illustration
to date of what President Barack Obama's America
looks like. It is an America where the lawless,
unaccomplished, ignorant and incompetent rule. It is
an America where those who have sacrificed nothing
pillage and destroy the lives of those who have
sacrificed greatly.
"It is an
America where history is rewritten to honor
dictators, murderers and thieves. It is an America
where violence, racism, hatred, class warfare and
murder are all promoted as acceptable means of
overturning the American civil
society.
"It is an
America where humans have been degraded to the level
of animals: defecating in public, having sex in
public, devoid of basic hygiene. It is an America
where the basic tenets of a civil society, including
faith, family, a free press and individual rights,
have been rejected. It is an America where our
founding documents have been shredded and, with
them, every person's guaranteed
liberties.
"It is an
America where, ultimately, great suffering will come
to the American people, but the rulers like Obama,
Michelle Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Barney
Frank, Chris Dodd, Joe Biden, Jesse Jackson, Louis
Farrakhan, liberal college professors, union bosses
and other loyal liberal/Communist Party members will
live in opulent splendor.
"It is the
America that Obama and the Democratic Party have
created with the willing assistance of the American
media, Hollywood , unions, universities, the
Communist Party of America , the Black Panthers and
numerous anti-American foreign entities. "Barack
Obama has brought more destruction upon this country
in four years than any other event in the history of
our nation, but it is just the beginning of what he
and his comrades are capable
of.
"The Occupy
Wall Street movement is just another step in their
plan for the annihilation of America . "Socialism,
in general, has a record of failure so blatant that
only an intellectual could ignore or evade
it.""
