>NOW! PASS IT NOW! PASS IT NOW! just trust me says president B Obama.

>I remember asking dad about Castro when I was about 9 years old.  I 
>asked, "Is Castro a good guy or bad?"
>
>
>Dad said he couldn't tell!!  This was about 1955.  We were living in 
>Louisiana  at the time.  Dad was in the Army there.
>
>Cuba was fairly close and in the news a lot.  The Cubans were asking 
>the same question!  Ike was president.
>
>This past July, we had the pleasure of sharing a summer 
>barbecue  with a refugee from Cuba ..  Our dinner conversation was 
>starkly different than most.
>
>This refugee came to the United States as a young boy in the early 1960s.
>
>His family was more fortunate than most as they were able to
>bring a suitcase and $100 when they fled Castro's newly formed 
>revolutionary paradise.
>
>Our dinner consisted of all-American fare: hamburgers, potato salad, 
>watermelon and fresh ears of sweet corn.
>
>This is a menu shared with family and friends nationwide, while 
>celebrating the birth of our beloved  America on the Fourth of July.
>
>We began with a simple discussion about our country and the 
>direction it has taken since Barack Obama came to power.  We shared 
>the usual complaints about the sour economy and liberal social 
>engineering emanating from the rulers in Washington ..
>
>But then he said it.  The sentence came naturally. I assume it  was 
>unplanned.
>
>But it carried the weight of a freight train.  "You know when Castro 
>took power, none of us knew he was a Communist"
>
>We sat stunned.  He continued, "Yes, we all thought he was a 
>patriot, a nationalist.  Before the revolution he didn't sound like 
>a radical."
>
>The comparison at this point was easy, and I interjected, "You mean 
>just like Barack Obama?"
>
>He responded; "Yes, just like Barack Obama."
>
>He continued, "We were all shocked as the government just continued 
>to grab more power.  First they said the revolution is over, so 
>please turn in your guns.  We all complied."
>
>"I remember my uncle saying after it started; 'Castro will only 
>nationalize some of the big industries, he   will never come and 
>take our family hardware store.' But that is exactly what happened; 
>Castro started with the sugar mills and the large 
>industries,  but  they eventually came and knocked on the door of 
>our family hardware store.  My family had run this store for 
>generations.  They said we now own the hardware store, you work for 
>us.  And that nice, large four-bedroom home you own, it is now 
>our   property also, and you can move yourself and five children 
>into two rooms of the house because others are moving in with you."
>
>The lesson learned from this discussion is a lesson most Americans 
>refuse to hear.  Political  leaders can lie about their  agenda and 
>once in office they can take totally unexpected turns.
>
>If you had asked us three years ago if we thought General Motors 
>would be nationalized, we would have never believed it.  We could 
>never contemplate a country where the rule of law, the most 
>fundamental building block of a justice society would be evaporating 
>just like it did in Castro's Cuba in the early 1960s.
>
>But the news of injustice keeps increasing.  Black Panthers are not 
>charged with wrongdoing by the U.S.   Department of Justice because 
>their crimes are against whites.  The bondholders of GM are stripped 
>of their assets without due process by the government.
>Governmental leaders are bribed in full daylight only to have 
>all  investigation of the crimes stifled by the Attorney General.
>
>The U.S. borders are overrun with crime and illegal activity and the 
>leaders in D.C. act as if it is important to protect the lawbreakers 
>while the innocent are  killed and overrun.   When local communities 
>attempt to enforce the law, they are ridiculed and threatened as 
>racists and bigots.  They are sued by the  very administration 
>entrusted with enforcing the law. [The so-called Tea Party that is 
>rising up against the BO administration are called terrorist, SOBs, 
>barbarians by our government (Vice President included) and etc 
>because they oppose the move toward more Socialism via the administration.]
>
>Without the rule of law the U.S. Constitution is a sham.  Without 
>the rule of law our beloved America is swiftly becoming a country 
>where only the well connected and politically   powerful will be 
>safe. As Michelle Malkin has so eloquently explained in her recent 
>book, a culture of corruption has replaced honest government.
>
>

>
>The only way this problem will be fixed is by massive citizen 
>action.  All honest citizens that want to   be treated equally must 
>come together and demand that the favoritism, the bribes, the uneven 
>enforcement of law end now.  And yes, it   can happen here.
>
>PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW ... And may God save the 
>United States of America!
>
>
>*Personally, I believe it is happening here, and if you think so too 
>the least you can do is forward this email.  6 million plus jews 
>didn't believe it would happen in Germany either.  If you're a 
>Christian in these United States of America you're next on the list.
