The Obama Threat

On the other hand, Steve Sailer describes the basic threat Obama poses to our freedom here and here. Obama's campaign is quite Goebbels-like in its squashing of dissent - simply put, any depiction of Obama that fails to hue to the Obama myth is a subject of relentless attacks from his brownshirts. In the digital age, thugs need not be beefy, testosterone-laden enforcers. An army of geeks willing to harass media outlets and advertisers can do the trick, along with an amusingly compliant press. (Here is a stomach-churning example). The tactic of using protests as intimidation to extract concessions from scared businesses and cowardly officials is no doubt one of the lasting skills Obama picked up as a community organizer. The non-stop Sarah Palin revelations on NPR and CNN compared to the (Obama)campaign-directed coverage the Anointed One gets pretty much tells the tale.

I will be voting for neither candidate I'm sure, but I'm really torn between which one I find scarier. One seems determined to get us into an ultimately destructive world war, while the other appears ready to transform the U.S.A. into a fiefdom of his personal brigade of thought.
