Things I am passionate about. Injustice, stupidity, intolerance, bigotry and small-mindedness. Oh and there might just be some humor to offset the whole thing.

Michelle Obama: Fascism, Depression, And Utopia, Oh My!

Posted by morganwrites on July 23, 2008

This quote from the ObamaMessiah’s wife, whom the Obama campaign says we’re not allowed to discuss, is a real eye catcher. It starts with a little burst of fascism, lapses into sadness and despair, and ends with a messianic promise of paradise for the world if Obama is elected,

“I wish we had time to be divided. I wish we had time to be upset. To be angry. To be disappointed. I wish we did. Because if we had time for that, then things wouldn’t be so bad right now. Instead, we’re in a place where another four or eight years of the world as it is will devastate the life of some child.”

To begin with, the country is currently sharply divided and clearly will continue to be divided, no matter who wins the election. So, when Teresa Heinz Obama says we don’t have “time to be divided,” there’s an implication there: people should not be allowed to disagree with her husband. After all, if there is going to be unity and Obama isn’t going to change his core liberal beliefs to achieve it, then everyone who isn’t liberal will have to be forced to change their beliefs. If Obama gets in, expect some variation of this argument to be used when the Left begins their un-American attempt to drive their political opponents off the airwaves via the Fairness Doctrine.

Next, Michelle goes into the standard liberal spiel about how “bad” things are. Whenever a Democrat is out of office, no matter what the situation is, they, along with their accomplices in the mainstream media, try to convince people that everything is falling apart. And, the only way Humpty Dumpty can be put back together again is if liberals are allowed to use big government to fix every boo-boo on the knee of the body politic.

Then, to cap it all off, Michelle finishes with this breath taking quote,

“Instead, we’re in a place where another four or eight years of the world as it is will devastate the life of some child.”

Yes, if we put Obama into office, the life of every child, everywhere on the planet, will be free of devastation and will therefore be nothing but cookies, rainbows, and fairies riding unicorns.

This sort of over-reaching rhetoric, combined with Obama’s towering arrogance, and the vacant-eyed zombies who follow him around because they like the idea of “hope” and “change” is creepily reminiscent of cult leaders like Jim Jones. Let’s just “hope” that the rest of us don’t get stuck drinking the poison Kool-Aid if this inexperienced, ultra-liberal dope gets into the White House.

Woman in W.Pa. baby mystery charged with homicide

PITTSBURGH — A woman suspected of cutting open a pregnant woman’s uterus and stealing the baby has been charged with homicide, unlawful restraint and kidnapping, police said Sunday.

Andrea Curry-Demus, 38, of Wilkinsburg, is charged in the death of Kia Johnson, 18, of McKeesport. Curry-Demus is accused of taking the baby boy to a Pittsburgh hospital and claiming it was her own.

Johnson’s body was found Friday in Curry-Demus’s apartment. The body was positively identified through dental records, Allegheny County Medical Examiner Karl Williams said Sunday.

In the criminal complaint, police said that video surveillance at the Allegheny County Jail from Tuesday afternoon shows Curry-Demus talking with Johnson for several minutes. The women were at the jail visiting different inmates, police said.

The clothing Johnson is seen wearing on the surveillance tape was consistent with the garments found on her body, police said.

Allegheny County Police Superintendent Charles Moffatt said the jail was the last time Johnson was seen alive.

Curry-Demus was being held in county jail on Sunday and it was not immediately clear whether she had an attorney. A lawyer who had represented her previously did not immediately return a phone message left Sunday.

No one was home at the McKeesport home of Johnson’s father on Sunday.

In the criminal complaint, police said Johnson’s body was found bound at the wrists and ankles with duct tape, and there were layers of duct tape and plastic covering much of her head. Her body was wrapped in a comforter and garbage bags and placed under the headboard of the bed in the master bedroom.

Williams said Johnson appeared to have been dead for about two days. She “had a wound to the abdomen consistent with the removal of a baby,” Allegheny County Police Superintendent Charles Moffatt said.

“A very sharp instrument” was used to cut open Johnson’s belly, he said.

Authorities said Johnson was 36 weeks pregnant, and they were trying to determine whether she was alive when the baby was removed. They also are awaiting toxicology tests to find out whether she was drugged. Test results are not expected for several weeks.

Police said in the complaint that Curry-Demus denied meeting Johnson but that she told investigators that her fingerprints would be on the duct tape and plastic used to wrap the body.

Curry-Demus showed up at the hospital Thursday with a newborn that still had the umbilical cord attached, police said. Tests later proved that she was not the mother.

Police said Curry-Demus initially told investigators she bought the baby for $1,000 from the its mother. She later said two people brought a pregnant woman to her apartment Tuesday evening, removed the baby the next day and gave it to her. She said she then took the newborn to her sister’s apartment and told her she had just given birth, police said.

Curry-Demus’ sister told investigators she didn’t see anyone else in Curry-Demus’ apartment when she visited twice Wednesday morning, police said. On the first occasion, Curry-Demus repeatedly went into the bedroom alone, closed the door and stayed there for several minutes. On the second occasion, Curry-Demus showed her sister the baby and claimed to have just given birth, police said.

Wilkinsburg Police Chief Ophelia Coleman said Sunday the child was “under observation.” Williams earlier said the baby was “apparently doing well.” The hospital has declined to release any information about the child.

In 1990, Curry-Demus, then known as Andrea Curry, was accused of stabbing a woman in an alleged plot to steal the woman’s infant. A day after that stabbing, Curry-Demus snatched a 3-week-old baby girl from a hospital after the child’s 16-year-old mother had gone home for the night. The baby was found unharmed with Curry-Demus at her home the next day.

Curry-Demus pleaded guilty in 1991 to various charges from both incidents and got three to 10 years in prison, according to court records. She was paroled in August 1998.

Sometimes I wonder why I even read the news.
