... (President Barack Obama) learned Chicago-style politics well and is systematically going about his intentions of destroying the American way of life and molding it to his socialist/Marxist way of thinking.

Anyone who does not agree with him had better watch their backs.

I did not vote for the man, but I did follow his campaign very closely. I listened very carefully to what he said and found it very scary. Because the “change” he was talking about was not what people thought it was. He kept saying “fundamentally change” but, unfortunately, people were so disenchanted with (George W.) Bush, they didn’t hear the word “fundamental.”

That’s the really scary part. He is a constitutional lawyer who considers the Constitution a hindrance to his plans, rather than a protection for the American people, which is how it was intended. ...

He said he would bring transparency to government, yet has proven to be one of the most secretive of executives, refusing to let the people read bills he is trying to ram through — bills designed to tear down this country and that will put us at risk of bankruptcy in short order.

He wants to redistribute the wealth in this country, taking from people who have earned it and giving it to those who have not. He wants to destroy capitalism. Where does he think all this money is going to come from? ...

Is this what you want? I sure don’t. I want to keep my freedom, my money, my home, the ability to speak my mind and all the rest of the things that our founding fathers wrote the Constitution for. ... I want my country back! ...
