College Paper Shows Obama Was a Raving Anti-American Kook »
Posted By pc25 4 months, 3 weeks ago in NewsThe state-run media can do research. It only took them 8 months after the election to release this crazy Far Left anti-American article Barack Obama wrote while in college.
The state run mainstream media has finally done a bit of the candidate background reporting it declined to do during the campaign — other than in Wasilla — and whaddya know? The New York Times unearthed a 1983 article called, "Breaking the War Mentality," that Columbia student Barack Obama wrote for a campus newspaper. The article shows that Obama dreaded American "militarism" and its "military-industrial interests," while effusing enthusiasm for the dangerously delusional nuclear-freeze movement.

Obama: Student Radical [Andy McCarthy]
During the campaign, I wrote a piece called "Why Won't Obama Talk About Columbia? — The years he won't discuss may explain the Ayers tie he keeps lying about." So now, nearly six months into the Obama presidency, the mainstream media has finally done a bit of the candidate background reporting it declined to do during the campaign — other than in Wasilla — and whaddya know? The New York Times unearthed a 1983 article called, "Breaking the War Mentality," that Columbia student Barack Obama wrote for a campus newspaper.

Radicalism is wearing a red beret and marching with girls who don't shave,

Radicalism is headbands!
Radicalism is a fist in the air,

He went on to harvard, became a lawyer,

Ok, maybe that is kinda radical. -

Why Won’t Obama Talk About Columbia?
The years he won’t discuss may explain the Ayers tie he keeps lying about.
Barack Obama does not want to talk about Columbia. Not even to his good friends at the New York Times, who’ve so reliably helped him bleach away his past — a past neck-deep in the hard Left radicalism he has gussied up but never abandoned.
Why? I suspect it is because Columbia would shred his thin post-partisan camouflage.
You might think the Times would be more curious. After all, the Democrats’ presidential nominee has already lied to the Gray Lady about the origins of his relationship with Weather Underground terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn. Back in May, in a cheery profile of Obama’s early Chicago days, the Times claimed (emphasis is mine):
Mr. Obama also fit in at Hyde Park’s fringes, among university faculty members like Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, unrepentant members of the radical Weather Underground that bombed the United States Capitol and the Pentagon to protest the Vietnam War. Mr. Obama was introduced to the couple in 1995 at a meet-and-greet they held for him at their home, aides said.-

Obama bewailed the "narrow focus" of anti-militarism activists, worrying that they were targeting the "symptoms" rather than the real "disease," namely, America's underlying economic and political injustice..
The article shows that Obama dreaded American "militarism" and its "military-industrial interests," while effusing enthusiasm for the dangerously delusional nuclear-freeze movement.
thats somewhat comforting to know especially since he is in Russia now and my wouldn't you know it
Obama: Hey, let’s bypass the Senate on treaty ratifications
After listening to the Democrats screech for the last two years about the rule of law, this Jake Tapper report should be surprising …. but it’s not. Apparently, Barack Obama finds treaty ratification a little too complicated, and so he figures he can just commit the US to nuclear disarmament and bypass Congressional oversight:

Barrack Hussein Obama is the author of a best selling autobiography:

It told about his weird childhood, his long education,

it told what he hoped for; what he believed.

theres absolutely nothing anti-american about wanting to break the war mentality. in fact, its a great idea, for our image and interests abroad as well as for the world at large. and throughout america's past, there have been many notable, repectable Americans who have shared these sentiments. mark twain, a true american genius and thinker, tops that list.
so, none of this makes Obama anti-american, it makes him pro-good idea.
and it actually makes people like pc25 look stupid for saying those who might be critical of america's negative ways are then deemed un-american. which is actually the opposite of the truth of the situation. and the first amendment tells me so.
and you gotta love how the gateway pundit doesn't understand what Obama is saying so they chalk it up to "near incoherent Lefty gobbledygook" which is embarrassing for the gateway pundit. they should be able to understand that paragraph. its pretty simple and not written in braille.
so, sad for the gateway pundit and the person who wrote their piece who obviously lacks reading comprehension skills and is obviously far inferior to Obama intellecually. otherwise, they woulda understood that paragraph, and never mind what it says about all the people on this board who agreed with the gateway pundit on that point.
and since Obama was a mere 22 years of age when he wrote the piece in question...
any of you freek cons want to know what George Bush was doing when he was 22?
of course you don't.
but I guarantee he wasn't writing well thought out articles for his school newspaper.
more like he was dressed in a cheerleading outfit, drunk out of his gourd with a coke spoon stuck up his nose. but you didn't have a problem with that, right?-

the positions he held then are the positions that he holds now
http://www.commentarymagazine.com/blogs/index.php/...
Those who suspect the president is engaged in a bit of dangerous self-delusion and denial about certain unpleasant realities regarding the threats from rogue states won’t be heartened to read that his current non-proliferation fetish stems, at least according to the New York Times, from his college infatuation with the nuclear freeze movement. Apparently, youthful Obama did not focus on the results from Ronald Reagan’s refusal to buy into the fantasies of liberals –namely the fall of the Soviet Empire. That lesson has entirely eluded now-president Obama. Is it any wonder his critics find his posture fraught with peril and entirely out-of-touch with the threats we face?
So little has changed. President Obama, like college student Obama, still fails to grasp the moral and political dimensions of the struggle we are involved in, still lacks any appreciation for the nature of totalitarian despots and of the motives compelling them to seek nuclear weapons. He is still fixated on the notion that weakness can resolve international threats. Unfortunately, the consequences for student Obama were not potentially fatal to his country. The reality is different today. As the Times notes:
Critics argue that the North Koreas of the world will simply defy the ban — and that the international community will fail to punish offenders.
“If the implications were not so serious, the discrepancy between Mr. Obama’s plans and real-world conditions would be hilarious,” said Frank J. Gaffney Jr., a Reagan-era Pentagon official who directs the Center for Security Policy, a private group in Washington. “There is only one country on earth that Team Obama can absolutely, positively denuclearize: Ours.”
as he is off on his little Russian junket to give away the kitchen and cut unratifiable deals with the recrudescent Soviets hasn't really changed in the ensuing quarter-century.
your qualifier of Obama being only 22 years old is enough of an indictment against Obama and your defense of him.......the pity of it is he is 50 years old, holds the same position, is hopelessly naive and gullible. That doesn't make him pro good, that make him VERY DANGEROUS -

Let the record speak for itself!
Indeed, the most pervasive malady of the collegiate system specifically, and the American experience generally, is that elaborate patterns of knowledge and theory have been disembodied from individual choices and government policy.

"Barack Obama's student jaw on war was one long bore
The president elect's university treatise was unfathomably dull but still hinted at great things to come
He was, to be fair, a student. And the subject of his treatise – a review of two Columbia University anti-war groups – hardly promises a gripping exposition of the ethics of armed conflict. But the remarkable aspect of Breaking the War Mentality, the previously unseen article by the president-elect is – with the exception of a strange reference to reggae legend Peter Tosh – that it is unfathomably dull.
Take a deep breath, and read this: "Indeed, the most pervasive malady of the collegiate system specifically, and the American experience generally, is that elaborate patterns of knowledge and theory have been disembodied from individual policy." . . .
"We know that wars have occurred, will occur, are occurring, but bringing such experience down into our hearts, and taking continual, tangible steps to prevent war, becomes difficult."
Observing the turnout at anti-war hangouts, he says: "One might be persuaded that the manifestations of our better instincts can at least match the bad ones."
There is also evidence of Obama the cool, when he quotes the ex-Wailers reggae artist Peter Tosh, famed for his 1976 hit urging the legalisation of cannabis. If you're hoping this means Prez-to-be Obama blew a fat spliff while jammin Legalise It on a '45, then read on, because he then kind of spoils it with another pompous-sounding cobweb of words.
Tosh's line "everybody's asking for peace, but nobody's asking for justice", Obama writes, "forces one to wonder whether disarmament or arms control issues, severed from economic and political issues, might be another instance of focusing on the symptoms of a problem instead of the disease itself". Now that interpretation of Steppin Razor's lyrics may well have required the inhalation of something pungent. -

Breaking the War Mentality (Barack Obama, circa 1983 at Columbia)
Sundial (via Columbia University Archives) ^ | 03/10/1983 | Barack Obama
Posted on Thursday, January 29, 2009 7:30:27 PM by Ultra Sonic 007
Most students at Columbia do not have first hand knowledge of war. Military violence has been a vicarious experience, channeled into our minds through television, film, and print.
The more sensitive among us struggle to extrapolate experiences of war from our everyday experience, discussing the latest mortality statistics from Guatemala, sensitizing ourselves to our parents' wartime memories, or incorporating into our framework of reality as depicted by a Maller[?] or a Coppola.
But the taste of war -- the sounds and chill, the dead bodies -- are remote and far removed.
We know that wars have occurred, will occur, are occurring, but bringing such experience down into our hearts, and taking continual, tangible steps to prevent war, becomes a difficult task.
Two groups on campus, Arms Race Alternatives (ARA) and Students Against Militarism (SAM) work within these mental limits to foster awareness and practical action necessary to counter the growing threat of war. Though the emphasis of the two groups differ, they share an aversion to current government policy.
These groups, visualizing the possibilities of destruction and grasping the tendencies of distorted national priorities, are throwing their weight into shifting America off the dead-end track.
"Most people my age remember well the air-raid drills in school, under the desk with our heads tucked between our legs.
Older people, they remember the Cuban Missile Crisis. I think these kinds of things left an indelible mark on our souls[?], so we're more apt to be concerned," says Don Kent, assistant director of programs and student activities at Earl Hall Center.
Along with the community Volunteer Service Center, ARA has been Don's primary concern, coordinating various working groups of faculty, students, and staff members, while simultaneously seeking the ever elusive funding for programs.-

"When I first came here two years ago, Earl Hall had been a holding tank for five years. Paul Martin (director of Earl Hall) and I discussed our interests, and decided that ARA would be one of the programs we pushed."
Initially, most of the work was done by non-student volunteers and staff. "Hot issues, particularly El Salvador, were occupying students at the time.
Consequently, we cosponsored a lot of activities with community organizations like SANE (Students Against Nuclear Energy)."
With the flowering of the nuclear freeze movement, and particularly the June 12 rally in Central Park, however student participation has expanded. One wonders whether this upsurge comes[?] from young people's penchant for the latest 'happenings' or from growing awareness of the consequences of nuclear holocaust.
ARA maintains a mailing list of 500 persons and Don Kent estimates that approximately half of the active members are students. Although he feels that continuity is provided by the faculty and staff members, student attendance at ARA sponsored events -- in particular a November 11 convocation on the nuclear threat -- reveals a deep reservoir of concern.
"I think students on this campus like to think of themselves a sophisticated, and don't appreciate small vision. So they tend to come out more for the events; they do not want to just fold leaflets."
Mark Bigelow, a graduate intern from Union Theological Seminary who works with Don to keep ARA running smoothly, agrees. "It seems that students here are fairly aware of the nuclear problem, and it makes for an underlying frustration. We try to talk to that frustration." Consequently, the thrust of ARA is towards generating dialogue which will give people a rational handle on this controversial subject.
This includes bringing speakers like Daniel Ellsberg to campus, publishing fact sheets compiled by interested faculty, and investigating the possible development of an interdisciplinary program in the Columbia curriculum dealing with peace, disarmament, and world order.

How often do you see those in the news? How often do you see those articles written by regular people. I don't believe I've ever written an article about the things I love that are unthreatened. I've done some poetry in my life, and it was most effluvient when I was in a time of distress... unrequited love, the yearning for something more, drives the poets (and authors) instinct most strongly.
Reply
There are "Odes" out there, to various things. But they don't sell, and they don't make interesting reading.
If you've never heard Obama speak well of America, I don't think you've objectively listened to him speak. But don't expect a speech just about the good. What would be the point? Why ignore the opportunity to point out places for improvement?
I'm sure that you don't believe the country is perfect. The impression I get is that Obama wants to help improve on a great nation. Is that so bad? -

Barack Obama holds a fire sale of America's nuclear defences in Moscow
No apologies for posting consecutively on Barack Obama: the Looney Tunes President’s sell-out of US and Western interests is proceeding at such a speed that it is difficult to keep pace. Well said, Nile Gardiner, for asking if Barack Obama is the most naïve president in American history. The answer is undoubtedly yes – unless he has a secret agenda to cut America down to size.
It was always in Russia that Obama threatened to do most damage and, as Nile Gardiner has rightly pointed out, these forebodings have been fulfilled. His supposed missile deal with Vladimir Putin (let’s cut straight to the organ-grinder and by-pass Medvedev, the monkey) is very satisfactory to Russian ambitions and realpolitik.
For America voluntarily to reduce its nuclear superiority is madness. Bien-pensant talk of a nuclear-free world displays total stupidity in a global situation where nuclear weaponry is proliferating, not receding. There is even a nuclear bomb in Pakistan, which is teetering on the brink of failed statehood at the hands of Islamist insurgents. Is this a time for America to disarm, to “sell the store” as one trenchant right-wing commentator has already described Obama’s posturing in Moscow?
For Obama, success is not the delivery of watertight nuclear security for America; it is a feel-good news conference and photo opportunity that will create huge approval ratings on liberal campuses where the delusions of 1968 and the anti-Vietnam war movement still linger on in these isolated Jurassic Parks.

My Fellow Americans: I wanted to give you people, my buddies, the good news. I have made up my mind and have decided to chase my one ambition of this lifetime. That's correct, I am going to run for President of the U.S.A. I accept your congratulations thankfully.
Reply
However, I am not going to run as a Conservative Candidate so I hope I will not offend any of my Loyal Supporters. Instead I have decided to run as a Liberal Candidate. So, before the true Patriots on the Honest Right start to wonder why I would do such a foolish thing I believe the following explanation will clearly justify my intentions.
Today the word is Damocratic, that is what people want to hear, because in order to stay in the news and get your voice heard you have to be on a Liberal ticket. A individual does not have to know what he is doing or whether or not what he intends to do is good for the Country, all he or she, has to do is say he is a Damocrat. The Media will follow you around like the Pied Pipers Rats, just to get whatever stupid story they can conjure up. So, the Presidency no longer means doing what is best for the Country but simply saying you will do what is best for the Country because you are a Damocrat.
It does not matter if you lie to the American Public, they love it, it shows you are human. It does not matter if you want to convert the Country to Communism, the American Public does not understand that concept and they think it is wonderful. It does not matter if you bankrupt the Country, the American Public has been bankrupting themselves for years and believes the American Bankruptcy Laws can work for the Country. It does not matter if the you take all Freedoms of the people away, the American Public just needs to be told that it's for their own good. It does not matter if you eliminate all our defenses for protecting our Country, the American Public despises violence so much that they don't care if all their friends and relatives are wiped out by our enemies. It doesn't matter if you eliminate all your friendly allies, the American Public is happy to know that you are bowing down to the Dictators of the world and entrusting our lives and our childrens lives on their promise of non violence. None of that and more matters it just matters that the American Public knows you are a Damocrat.
Rest assured my Friends, I will be elected President because I will be saying what the American Public wants to hear when my primary goal is world domination. However, unlike a real Damocrat I will rule as a Conservative and bring this country back to where it once was with the same Policies that made it the Greatest Country on the Face of the Earth. So, it goes, If you can't beat them, pretend to Join them. No one will even know my true identity or plan. Now, you see that is what a real leader is all about much unlike our present one. Out Foxing the Rabbit. Do I have your Vote? The Real American
