It is understandable how Obama and Rahm Emanuel have cavalier disdain for American values.  The procrastination in aiding our troops in Afghanistan and socialist agenda are telling signs.   One generation of existence here can never provide the same richness of history, the same sacrifice, and the same sense of community that course through the veins of Americans whose families have been here for countless generations.  You do not value something if you haven’t earned it.   The Pilgrims came to the New World seeking religious freedom.  England stretched its arm across the ocean and tried to limit freedoms and impose unfair taxes on the Colonists.  The Colonists responded by rejecting and defeating  England and establishing the United States of America.  We have a Constitution for necessary reasons- to ensure our freedoms and prevent oppressive behavior by those that would subjugate us.   

Obama himself stated that he would “fundamentally change” America.  One of Merriam-Webster’s definitions for revolution is “fundamental change” in political organization.   Aristotle described two types of political revolution:  Complete change from one constitution to another and Modification of an existing constitution.  It appears that his goal is the second of Aristotle’s descriptions.  This would give rise to a Demo-Socialist (my term) state which allows its citizen to vote and select leaders in an effort to appease the populace’s need for political   illusory self-governance.  At the same time, the state nationalizes most institutions and bottle feeds its citizens universal health care, meaningless jobs, and self-serving propaganda.  Sounds like Obama has a leg up on this as the bank bailouts and automobile buyouts give the government major control of these industries.  This control was pronounced with the government’s decision to limit salaries of top bank executives.  The Health Care bill if passed will eventually lead to a single-payer health care system.  Revocation of coal mining permits is another instance of socialist strong-arm tactics.  But this happened before in Europe.
