Obama In 1998: "I Actually Believe In Redistribution"

At an October 19, 1998 conference at Loyola University, Barack Obama spoke against "propaganda" that said government doesn't work and the need to "pool resources and hence facilitate some redistribution because I actually believe in redistribution."

Fuck you Obama, I worked hard for my money, I'm not going to give it away to people who refuse to work

Granted that Ayers is not cabinet member but he was/is an advisor and has been a friend of Obama's for many years.

Uneducated people? Hmm... look at where the "educated" ones have gotten us. 15trillion in debt, a monolithic draconian power grab health care rationing system coming. What would the IRS accuse him of? Good question, we don't know anything about him because the media refuses to do their jobs. But what we do know is not good.

$85 billion a month to the mega banks in indefinite Quantitative Easing payments, taxpayers on the hook for it all.

Yeah, he believes in redistribution all right. Fucker.

Fascist Obamunism = Marxism.... name one successful Communist country ?! the Obama lie count is rising faster. Tax only those making under $250K = Lie, he taxed EVERYONE. Obamacare = too many lies to count and still rising! National Debt = he is purposely destroying the USA.

Obama, there is a difference between "redistribution" and "making sure everybody's got a shot". You can make the playing field level without taxing one to give to the other.

Notice in this video, he tries to sound as white as possible, to make himself sound academic. But when he was running for president, in all his speeches, he sounded as black as possible, to be more convincing to the black nationalist community.

As far as I'm concerned though, the Republican Party is a ship with no sails. If I were a U.S. citizen, I would back the Third Position Party; it's the only way to counter the black nationalists and big labour who keep Obama in power.

Try to search for the subject of the FBI Benghzi delay and you'll find one report as late as nov 11th. all other media buried it. Good luck out there with your leaders.

The precise timeline of the FBI investigation and discovery of the affair is still unclear. The Wall Street Journal reported that the email investigation began “late this spring” but that Petraeus wasn’t interviewed until “recently.”

“The decision was made to delay the resignation apparently to avoid potential embarrassment to the president before the election,” an FBI source says. “To leave him in such a sensitive position where he was vulnerable to potential blackmail for months compromised our security and is inexcusable.”

T]he White House, with concurrence by the FBI and Justice Department, held off on asking for Petraeus’ resignation until after the election. His resignation occurred three days after the election, avoiding the possibility that Obama’s ill-fated appointment of Petraeus could become an issue in the election.
