This dude went from promising to close Guantanamo to making franchises out of it with the NDAA that passed while everybody was out getting drunk on New Year's Eve. And from what I've heard, his re-selection for 2012 is a done deal. Yet I still can't find one single Black person that is still planning on voting for him again to give one valid reason for their action, other than some nonsense of "we have to keep Republicans out of office", or "we "need" a Black president in office." What exactly has this "Black Democrat" done that is any different (rather better) than any of the previous presidents, Democrat or Republican?

And I'm not buying this whole Andrew Breitbart-died-of-a-heart-attack-while-walking-home-from-a-bar bit 19 minutes after the day he was to drop a bomb on Obama's whole 2012 campaign...

“We ended torture. We promoted human rights. We are leading again by the power of our moral example.” -- Barack Obama

Obviously, as in Libya!

Then there is the tendency amongst us to defend a Black man under a vicious assault by the raw-elements of the White Supremacy Dynamic. At Savior’s Day Min. Farrakhan quoted a Kansas politician who sent a email targeting Obama using Psalm 109:

8 May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership. 9 May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow.10 May his children be wandering beggars; may they be driven from their ruined homes. 11 May a creditor seize all he has; may strangers plunder the fruits of his labor.12 May no one extend kindness to him or take pity on his fatherless children.

Whereas these are the hopes of Mike O’Neal and his ilk, when you read the words of the Psalmist this is precisely what Barack Obama and NATO did to Muammar Qaddafi. In the context of scripture, if you go around the world murdering people in defiance of Galatians 6:7, what should you expect?

Just dripping with hypocrisy, like poison from the fangs of a pit viper!

“The United States takes this as seriously as if it was our own citizens, and our children, who were murdered. We're heartbroken over the loss of innocent life. "The killing of innocent civilians is outrageous, and it's unacceptable. It's not who we are as a country, and it does not represent our military." – Barack Obama


“We’re heartbroken.” Since when?

TRIPOLI, Global Research, August 10, 2011 -- The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) conducted intensive attacks on Libyan civilians in the night of August 8 and in the early hours of August 9, 2011 from approximately 2:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. EET. A large number of casualties occurred in the city of Zliten, in the district of Misurata. In Zliten, 85 people were killed including 33 children, 32 women, and 20 men as a result of NATO's deliberate targeting of residential areas and civilian infrastructure. Many of the injured civilian victims are in critical condition and near death.

This has nothing to do with being heartbroken. This is pure political theater, as Dr. King said, “Expediency asks the question, is it politic?” Expediency demanded this fraudulent moral outrage over the incident in Afghanistan. It made no such demands over war crimes in Libya.

Incidentally, the Libyan video is perhaps the last footage of Mummar Qaddafi’s youngest son Khamis before he was reportedly killed on August 29, 2011, by a US Predator Drone. At least Khamis was a soldier.
