President Obama does not understand the world, and he hopes you too do not understand.

"Since the days of Franklin Roosevelt, and the service and sacrifice of our grandparents and great-grandparents, our country has borne a special burden in global affairs. We have spilled American blood in many countries on multiple continents. We have spent our revenue to help others rebuild from rubble and develop their own economies. We have joined with others to develop an architecture of institutions -- from the United Nations to NATO to the World Bank -- that provide for the common security and prosperity of human beings. ....

We have not always been thanked for these efforts, and we have at times made mistakes. But more than any other nation, the United States of America has underwritten global security for over six decades -- a time that, for all its problems, has seen walls come down, and markets open, and billions lifted from poverty, unparalleled scientific progress and advancing frontiers of human liberty. ....

For unlike the great powers of old, we have not sought world domination. Our union was founded in resistance to oppression. We do not seek to occupy other nations. We will not claim another nation's resources or target other peoples because their faith or ethnicity is different from ours. What we have fought for -- what we continue to fight for -- is a better future for our children and grandchildren. And we believe that their lives will be better if other peoples' children and grandchildren can live in freedom and access opportunity."

and,

....

"As a country, we're not as young -- and perhaps not as innocent -- as we were when Roosevelt was President. Yet we are still heirs to a noble struggle for freedom. And now we must summon all of our might and moral suasion to meet the challenges of a new age. ....

In the end, our security and leadership does not come solely from the strength of our arms. It derives from our people -- from the workers and businesses who will rebuild our economy; from the entrepreneurs and researchers who will pioneer new industries; from the teachers that will educate our children, and the service of those who work in our communities at home; from the diplomats and Peace Corps volunteers who spread hope abroad; and from the men and women in uniform who are part of an unbroken line of sacrifice that has made government of the people, by the people, and for the people a reality on this Earth."

and again,

"This vast and diverse citizenry will not always agree on every issue -- nor should we. But I also know that we, as a country, cannot sustain our leadership, nor navigate the momentous challenges of our time, if we allow ourselves to be split asunder by the same rancor and cynicism and partisanship that has in recent times poisoned our national discourse."

yet again, ....

"It's easy to forget that when this war began, we were united -- bound together by the fresh memory of a horrific attack, and by the determination to defend our homeland and the values we hold dear. I refuse to accept the notion that we cannot summon that unity again. (Applause.) I believe with every fiber of my being that we -- as Americans -- can still come together behind a common purpose. For our values are not simply words written into parchment -- they are a creed that calls us together, and that has carried us through the darkest of storms as one nation, as one people. ....

America -- we are passing through a time of great trial. And the message that we send in the midst of these storms must be clear: that our cause is just, our resolve unwavering. We will go forward with the confidence that right makes might, and with the commitment to forge an America that is safer, a world that is more secure, and a future that represents not the deepest of fears but the highest of hopes."

~President Obama, West Point speech, 12-01-09.[1]




The views expressed by President Obama, the Commander-and-Chief of the United States armed forces and front man for the Neo-liberal multinational capitalist Empire, in his West Point speech last night are as much offensive as they are naive. It truly takes a man of great privilege and unquestioning loyalty to the free-market to devise such a clever argument as to why “we” as global citizens under the boot of NATO forces should submit to his multilateral war on behalf of multinational capitalist interest. Empire wants to expand the Middle-Eastern market at the expense of: our lives, our world, our created use-value currently being subsumed by exchange-value, and our collective psychological well-being. ....

President Obama represents order being brought back to a Society of the Spectacle which had an eight year run at a child-like theocratic controlled lordship only rivaled by the very religious fanatics that the simple-minded born again Christian zealots who clutch their sexually frustrated husband or wife in front of the TV in fear of the conditions their true master creates and recreates decade after decade. This order is economic order, it has many names: Capitalism, the free-market, Democracy, Western Civilization, freedom loving nations, national interest, and many more. This order that Obama is presenting on stage has many consequences: war, poverty, death, boredom, global warming, exploitation, slavery, manufactured fear/consent, and a constructed mass narrative that attempts to reassure us all that the very phenomenon that creates, uses, and amplifies the very crisis we find ourselves in will end this capitalist madness. This order has one interest, maintaining capitalism/profit. We are currently under the boot of sociopaths who only feel compassion for an economic system and will take any action in order to protect and remain the beneficiaries of this very real and dangerous system, capitalism. ....

The order being implemented by President Obama and NATO forces is not a kind or gentle system, it is a capitalist plan to regain control of a stumbling system which is heading towards apocalypse. This apocalypse was haphazardly constructed by American policy makers who are living 60 years in the past and who are so blinded by their nationalism, racism, and religious/fascist fueled fantasies that they could not even conduct a simple matter of class war carried out by their fathers before them. President Obama represents order and logic being brought back to an irrational system riddled with dialectical contradictions. The election of Obama represents this very sigh of relief that “we” are no longer held hostage by religious fanatics but after this sigh “we” again took a deep breath before “we” were stripped of all secondary issues to bask in the horror that is multinational capitalist/imperial hegemony. This is the order President Obama has brought to the world citizenry. A world where all illusions are caste aside and we are faced with one war, class war. We must engage in this class war because it is upon us, our everyday lives and everyday interactions are at stake.....

We can only thank President Obama for freeing us from the grips of Bush/Cheney sadistic fanaticism but you peel back the fanaticism and you find three friends who fulfill three distinctly different roles for one father. Their differences in actions represents the attitudes and actions of three brothers: one being young dumb and so eagerly wishes to impress the older brother, the second being currently right for the job because he is calculated and cool, and the third hoping that his bullshit and once upon a time heady days of high school cool will get him through the last years of his career. This is the American political system, a system that only wishes to discuss morality tales and hopes that no one will engage in class warfare. ....

What “we” do is what is of interest not their grand stories of faith or economy.....

.. ..

-From an anarchist-communist who enjoys the fact that the American political system has emerged from the eight year blunder created by a retarded man-child. Maybe now we can again begin to fight against Empire and not its horrible symptoms.

Good day, sun shines!
