Informing and Equipping Americans Who Love Freedom
Here’s an extensive comparison of quotes from our
Founding Fathers...And Barack Obama
Founding Fathers...And Barack Obama
Allan Erickson, Western Journalism — The contrast is glaring:
John Adams: “The consequences arising from the continual accumulation of public debts in other countries ought to admonish us to be careful to prevent their growth in our own.”
Barack Hussein Obama: “Print more, spend more, raise the debt ceiling.”
Thomas Jefferson: “If we can but prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people, under the pretense of taking care of them, they must become happy.”
Barack Hussein Obama: “We must exploit the labors of the people to take care of them at the expense of happiness.”
JFK: “And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you — ask what you can do for your country.”
BHO: “Ask not what you can do for your country—-demand that your country do for you.”
Lincoln: “ . . . government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
BHO: ” . . . government of, by, and for the government shall expand; and the people can perish to save the earth.”
Washington: “I cannot tell a lie.”
BHO: “The truth is relative.”
Reagan: “Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.”
BHO: “My duty is to run your life, even if it means you are left unprotected.”
FDR: “The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.”
BHO: “Never fear; I am here.”
Harry Truman: “The buck stops here.”
Barack Obama: “What buck?”
Harry Truman: “Those who want the government to regulate matters of the mind and spirit are like men who are so afraid of being murdered that they commit suicide to avoid assassination.”
Barack Obama: “In the name of collective security and the general welfare, the government must regulate matters of the mind and the spirit.”
Martin Van Buren: “The national will is the supreme law of the Republic, and on all subjects within the limits of his constitutional powers should be faithfully obeyed by the public servant.”
Barack Obama: “I have a phone and a pen.”
Bill Clinton: “Promising too much can be as cruel as caring too little.”
Barack Obama: “Promise the moon and keep ‘em guessing.”
Ulysses S. Grant: “I know no method to secure the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so effective as their stringent execution.”
Barack Obama: “The ACA is the law of the land. Get over it.”
Thomas Jefferson: A wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government . . . ”
Barack Obama: “I think government should redistribute wealth.”
Andrew Jackson: “The Bible is the rock on which this Republic rests.”
Barack Obama: “Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation.”

» EXPLOSIVE: Filmmaker ‘Behind The Benghazi Attack’ Found To Be A CONFIRMED MUSLIM Agent Who Worked With US Government
Walid Shoebat —
A woman who starred in the controversial video that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton blamed for the attacks in Benghazi, has come to us with a STUNNING revelation that the man who produced the video recently confessed to her that he is a Muslim – twice. According to Cindy Lee Garcia, who is also the plaintiff in a lawsuit against Google and Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, the maker of the infamous “Innocence of Muslims” video, responded “Yes” both...» Congressman: Obama Using ‘Cloward-Piven Maneuver’
World Net Daily —
‘Attempt to flood the border with illegals’ part of infamous socialist strategy. Two U.S. congressmen tell WND they believe the flooding of America’s Southwest border with thousands of illegal-alien children seeking government handouts and citizenship is the intended outcome of policies by the Obama administration derived from a strategy by radical sociologists to transform America into a socialist state. In the 1960s, professors Andrew Cloward and...» Immigration Shelter Photos: Feds Treat Illegal Aliens Better Than Veterans
Alex’s Jones Infowars —
While homeless vets wander the streets, Obama administration uses military bases to shelter illegal aliens. Exclusive photos of an illegal immigrant shelter on a military base in Texas emphasize how the Obama administration is quick to aid illegal aliens but not veterans, especially not the vets being horribly mistreated at VA hospitals or even the homeless veterans struggling on the streets across America.» Veterans Affairs Issued ‘Gag Order’ And Engaged In Criminal Cover-Ups, Lawmakers Say
Washington Examiner —
A Department of Veterans Affairs memo that prohibits top administrators from answering questions from members of Congress, the media or veterans' groups is being called a “gag order” meant to cover up agency wrongdoing by a Kansas congressman. Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kansas, backed the charge by releasing the June 4 e-mail from Janet Murphy, acting deputy under secretary for health at VA, to dozens of top-tier officials nationwide instructing them not to talk...» You’ll Never Believe What ABC And NBC Decided Was More Important Than The VA Scandal
Tea Party News Network (TPNN) —
“It’s no different than the coverage of Bergdahl. This has disappeared. Benghazi disappeared. The IRS disappeared. Fast and Furious disappeared. Stimulus abuses disappeared. All these scandals are disappearing on purpose.” The news network ‘geniuses’ at ABC and NBC sent a message loud and clear to the veterans and their families who have suffered at the hands of a corrupt VA. Their message was “The falsified documents from the VA, which...» Obama May Free Cuban Spies and Terrorists
Accuracy In Media (AIM) —
Just a few blocks from the White House, in the basement of a black Baptist church, the chief of the Cuban Interests Section plotted with former terrorists and members of the communist Workers World Party this past week to convince President Obama to release communist spies and terrorists from American prisons. Coming in the wake of freed U.S. Army deserter Bowe Bergdahl, in a trade for terrorists arranged by the Obama administration...» OUTRAGEOUS: Iraq Begged Obama For Airstrikes On Surging Terrorists, He Said No
Mr. Conservative —
Obama loves to be quite the goodie two shoes on camera, but what happens behind the scenes often paints a different picture. Although he most recently asked really, really nicely for the terrorist groups in Iraq to stop taking over it appears he’s actually done quite little to help the situation. As it turns out, Iraqi officials have literally been begging Obama for help in the form of airstrikes to help push back the incoming terrorist forces. Each of the several times he’s...» Muslims Continue Push To Promote Islam Through D.C. Bus Ads
Christian News Network —
A Christian, a Muslim and a Jew turn up together on a Washington, D.C., bus. It’s no joke. They’re the faces of a new ad campaign by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Muslim civil liberties group. And the ad is the latest volley between Muslim and non-Muslim groups that has played out most recently on the sides of buses in the nation’s capital. First, the American Muslims for Palestine ran ads during peak D.C. tourism season, the Cherry...» Indonesia Destroying Churches As Islamist Influence Grows
The Clarion Call —
Indonesia is the most populous Muslim country in the world. Its decline into extremism and intolerance does not bode well for the future. Churches are being shut down in Indonesia at a rate of 40 per year, according to an Indonesian think-tank promoting religious tolerance. Despite its reputation for moderation, the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom recently listed Indonesia as a “Tier 2” country for its religious persecution...» Russian Bombers Fly Within 50 Miles Of California Coast
