HAVE LISTENED TO THIS WISE MAN ON FOX FOR SOME TIME. THIS IS NOT
NEW NEWS ABOUT WHICH HE WRITES; BUT I HAD NO IDEA THAT HE WAS
PARALYZED FROM THE NECK DOWN..OR THAT HE WAS AN MD AND A LAWYER.
AMAZING !
Dr. Charles Krauthammer
Dr. Krauthammer is on Fox News . He is an M.D. and a lawyer and is
paralyzed from the neck down. A friend went to hear Charles
Krauthammer. He listened with 25 others in a closed room. What he says
here, is NOT 2nd-hand but 1st. The ramifications are staggering for
us, our children and their children.
Last Monday was a profound evening, Dr. Charles Krauthammer spoke to
the Center for the American Experiment. He is a brilliant
intellectual, seasoned & articulate. He is forthright and careful in
his analysis, and never resorts to emotions or personal insults. He is
NOT a fear monger nor an extremist in his comments and views. He is a
fiscal conservative, and has received a Pulitzer Prize for writing. He
is a frequent contributor to Fox News and writes weekly for the
Washington Post. The entire room was held spellbound during his
talk. I have summarized his comments, as we are living in uncharted
waters economically and internationally. Even 2 Dems at my table
agreed with everything he said! If you feel like forwarding this to
those who are open minded and have not drunk the Kool-Aid, feel free.
SUMMARY OF HIS COMMENTS:
1. Mr. Obama is a very intellectual, charming
individual. He is not to be underestimated. He is a cool customer who
doesn't show his emotions. It's very hard to know what's behind the
mask.The taking down of the Clinton dynasty was an
amazing accomplishment. The Clintons still do not understand what
hit them. Obama was in the perfect place at the perfect time.
2. Obama has political skills comparable to
Reagan and Clinton . He has a way of making you think he's on your
side, agreeing with your position, while doing the opposite. Pay _no_
attention to what he SAYS; rather, watch what he DOES!
3. Obama has a ruthless quest for power. He did
not come to Washington to make something out of himself, but rather
to change everything, including _dismantling_ capitalism. He can't be
straightforward on his ambitions, as the public would not go along.
He has a heavy hand, and wants to level the playing field with income
redistribution and punishment to the achievers of society. He would
like to model the USA to Great Britain or Canada .
4. His three main goals are to control ENERGY,
PUBLIC EDUCATION, and NATIONAL HEALTHCARE by the Federal government.
He doesn't care about the auto or financial services industries, but
got them as an early bonus. The cap and trade will add costs to
everything and stifle growth. Paying for FREE college education is his
goal. Most scary is his healthcare program, because if you make it
FREE and add 46,000,000 people to a Medicare-type single-payer system,
the costs will go through the roof. The only way to control costs is
with massive RATIONING of services, like in Canada. /God forbid! /
5. He has surrounded himself with mostly
far-left academic types. No one around him has ever even run a candy
store. But they are going to try and run the auto, financial, banking
and other industries. This obviously can't work in the long run. Obama
is not a socialist; rather he's a far-left secular progressive bent on
nothing short of revolution. He ran as a moderate, but will govern
from the hard left. Again, watch what he does, not what he says.
6. Obama doesn't really see himself as President
of the United States, but more as a ruler over the world. He sees
himself above it all, trying to orchestrate & coordinate various
countries and their agendas. He sees moral equivalency in all
cultures. His apology tour in Germany and England was a prime
example of how he sees America, as an imperialist nation that has
been arrogant, rather than a great noble nation that has at times made
errors. This is the first President ever who has chastised our allies
and appeased our enemies!
7. He is now handing out goodies. He hopes that
the bill (and pain) will not come due until after he is reelected in
2012. He would like to blame all problems on Bush from the past, and
hopefully his successor in the future. He has a huge ego, and Dr.
Krauthammer believes he is a narcissist.
8.. Republicans are in the wilderness for a
while, but will emerge strong. Republicans are pining for another
Reagan, but there will never be another like him. Krauthammer believes
Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty & Bobby Jindahl (except for his terrible
speech in February) are the future of the party. Newt Gingrich is
brilliant, but has baggage. Sarah Palin is sincere and intelligent,
but needs to really be seriously boning up on facts and info if she is
to be a serious candidate in the future. We need to return to the
party of lower taxes, smaller government, personal responsibility,
strong national defense, and state's rights.
9. The current level of spending is
irresponsible and outrageous. We are spending trillions that we don't
have. This could lead to hyperinflation, depression or worse. No
country has ever spent themselves into prosperity. The media is giving
Obama, Reid and Pelosi a pass because they love their agenda. But
eventually the bill will come due and people will realize the huge
bailouts didn't work, nor will the stimulus package. These were
trillion-dollar payoffs to Obama's allies, unions and the Congress to
placate the left, so he can get support for #4 above.
10. The election was over in mid-September when
Lehman brothers failed, fear and panic swept in, we had an unpopular
President, and the war was grinding on indefinitely without a clear
outcome. The people are in pain, and the mantra of change caused
people to act emotionally. Any Dem would have won this election; it
was surprising it was as close as it was.
11. In 2012, if the unemployment rate is over
10%, Republicans will be swept back into power. If it's under 8%, the
Dems continue to roll. If it's between 8-10%, it will be a dogfight.
It will all be about the economy.. I hope this gets you really
thinking about what's happening in Washington and Congress. There is a
left-wing revolution going on, according to Krauthammer, and he
encourages us to keep the faith and join the loyal resistance. The
work will be hard, but we're right on most issues and can reclaim our
country, before it's far too late. Do yourself
a long term favor, send this to all who will listen to an intelligent
assessment of the big picture. All our futures and children's futures
depend on our good understanding of what is really going on in DC, and
our action pursuant to that understanding!! It really IS up to each of
us to take individual action!! Start with educating your friends and
neighbors!!! Don't let this man's use of "freedom of speech"
capture your "freedom to think!"
