Am I just desperate for something to excuse Obama's luke-warm change of heart? I don't think so. The fact that President Obama still remains personally popular with the majority of American tells me I'm not alone in instinctively knowing him to be a brave, good and gentle soul, sensing the danger that restrains him. Something (or someones) have given him reason to be afraid. The danger can be holstered by a media whipped mob only feet from where the President is speaking. Who, then whips the media to lather so much press on this vocal and often hateful minority? Who orders the minority party of both houses of the United States Congress to go beyond simple political gamesmanship into cheerleaders for the crazed Birthers, Secessionists, Racists and deluded anti-socialist Social Security and Medicare recipients to overthrow the government? Who fans the flames of treason as the new patriotism? For what purpose?

So much of this dangerous propaganda was in play throughout the Kennedy Administration, leading up to his murder and the coverup of the script that brought forth that coup de tat.

The genetic successors of the conspirators of 1933 are morally empty: Bush I the last still infected with a trace of a sense of right versus wrong. They are monsters these decendents of the traitors of 1933--truly the giant Taibbi squid, sucking all the wealth and life from what was once a great and inspirational nation. Heartless, they know where their prey is vulnerable. So I pray for Michelle, Malia and Sasha, as I'm sure Barack Obama father does every night.
