GOP: Stockholm Syndrome

GOP establishment suffers from Stockholm Syndrome

President Obama and his socialist cabal are destroying America, step-by-step, minute by minute. 

He’s killing jobs, strangling the economy, snuffing out capitalism, and destroying our children’s lives with massive debt.  

He’s demonizing business owners, punishing success, and redistributing income from the makers (the job creators) to the takers (his voters). 

And now, millions of Americans are losing their health insurance because of ObamaCare. Oh and he happened to know this was going to happen for three years now -- but said nothing. 

When a private sector CEO uses fraud or misrepresents the truth to sell a billion dollar product, don't he or she go to prison?

Isn't that fraud and misrepresentation? When a private sector CEO uses fraud or misrepresents the truth to sell a billion dollar product, don't he or she go to prison?

The real question is why is the GOP establishment standing by as Obama destroys America? Are they stupid? Are they cowards? Are they just dense? Are they in on it, just pretending they oppose Obama, but are really on the same team? Or, are they suffering from Stockholm Syndrome?

What is "Stockholm Syndrome" you might ask. Well, the Stockholm Syndrome is a psychological phenomenon in which hostages are in a state of denial and exhibit irrational empathy, sympathy and positive feelings toward their captors, defending and even apologizing to them.

Today’s GOP establishment appears to suffer from this mental disorder.

The real statistics of the Obama economy are mind-numbing:

- Ninety million working-age Americans are not working, the highest in history.

- More Americans now receive entitlements than work full-time.

- The typical American family earns less today than in 1989.

- The number of Americans getting food stamps is now biggerthan population of the entire Northeast - including New York City, Boston, and Philadelphia. And bigger than the population of the country of Spain!

- The national debt jumped $328 billion in one day, more than the entire budget deficit for the year 2007 under President George W. Bush.

- Nearly half of Americans have less than $500 in savings.

- More Americans are losing health insurance than signing up for ObamaCare.

Yet with the country headed for economic collapse, the GOP says little, does less, and apologizes at any attempt to resist.  

That's Stockholm Syndrome.

Obama and his socialist cabal call conservative patriots “terrorists” “extortionists” “legislative arsonists” and “racists” (comparing them to the KKK). And what does the GOP establishment do? They go along with Obama, belittling the few courageous conservative heroes trying to save America (and the U.S. economy) from a madman.

That's Stockholm Syndrome. 

Obama is turning America into a Big Brother Nanny State with nasty government bureaucrats controlling our lives. 

He uses the IRS to destroy his critics and bankrupt his political opposition. 

He uses the NSA to listen to our calls and communications -- no doubt planning to blackmail opposition candidates. 

He uses the EPA to prevent America achieving energy independence from nations rife with supporters of radical Islam. 

He creates new government regulations to bankrupt small business owners, starving donations to conservative candidates and causes. And he uses the SEC as a weapon to extort political donations from big business. 

Yet, the GOP says little, does less, and apologizes at any attempt to resist.  

Stockholm Syndrome. 

Then there’s the corruption. Michelle Obama’s Princeton college classmate just happens to be a top executive at the firm chosen to build the ObamaCare web site. They are both members of the Association of Black Princeton Alumni.

That firm just happened to receive a NO BID contract worth over $600 million, then built the worst performing web site in history. Where did the $600 million go? That's taxpayer money, not Michelle Obama’s.

Yet, the GOP says little, does less, and apologizes at any attempt to resist.  

Stockholm Syndrome. 

In the past year Obama has fired nine commanding generals and suspended two others.

Is he purging the military of anyone who disagrees with his policies? To what end? 

Something is very, very wrong. These are the military leaders who keep our children safe at night. Never in military history has anything like this happened. Where are the investigations?  

Obama orders the IRS to destroy critics, conservative donors, and small business owners, while allowing the same IRS to hand over $4.2 billion in "tax credits" to illegal aliens, who never paid taxes, and claim multiple deductions for kids who either don't exist, or don't even live in this country. 

Yet Obama doesn't ask the IRS to investigate this fraud, committed by real criminals. 

Only conservatives get hit with IRS investigations. Criminals get off Scot free because they vote Democratic. If this was a script in a fictional movie, Hollywood wouldn't buy it. It's that absurd.

Yet, the GOP says little, does less, and apologizes at any attempt to resist. 

Stockholm Syndrome. 

America is being destroyed, yet the GOP fumbles, retreats, and apologizes. It’s tragic. 

One party is filled with frauds, crooks, and Marxists out to bankrupt the economy, wreck capitalism, and destroy America. And, the other party is filled with weak-willed cowards either scared of their own shadow, in cahoots with Obama, or suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. 

AMERICA, WAKE UP!

Obama Care: A Success Story

Why Obamacare is a Fantastic Success
 

By Wayne Allyn Root

There are 2 major political parties in America. I’m a member of the naïve, stupid, and cowardly one. I’m a Republican. How stupid is the GOP? They still don’t get it. I told them 5 years ago, 2 books ago, a national bestseller ago (“The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide”), and in hundreds of articles and commentaries, that Obamacare was never meant to help America, or heal the sick, or lower healthcare costs, or lower the debt, or expand the economy.

The GOP needs to stop calling Obamacare a “trainwreck.” That means it’s a mistake, or accident. That means it’s a gigantic flop, or failure. It’s NOT. This is a brilliant, cynical, and purposeful attempt to damage the U.S. economy, kill jobs, and bring down capitalism. It’s not a failure, it’s Obama’s grand success. It’s not a “trainwreck,” Obamacare is a suicide attack. He wants to hurt us, to bring us to our knees, to capitulate- so we agree under duress to accept big government.

Obama’s hero and mentor was Saul Alinsky- a radical Marxist intent on destroying capitalism. Alinksky’s stated advice was to call the other guy “a terrorist” to hide your own intensions. To scream that the other guy is “ruining America,” while you are the one actually plotting the destruction of America. To claim again and again…in every sentence of every speech…that you are “saving the middle class,” while you are busy wiping out the middle class.

The GOP is so stupid they can’t see it. There are no mistakes here. This is a planned purposeful attack. The tell-tale sign isn’t the disastrous start to Obamacare. Or the devastating effect the new taxes are having on the economy. Or the death of full-time jobs. Or the overwhelming debt. Or the dramatic increases in health insurance rates. Or the 70% of doctors now thinking of retiring- bringing on a healthcare crisis of unimaginable proportions. Forget all that.

The real sign that this is a purposeful attack upon capitalism is how many Obama administration members and Democratic Congressmen are openly calling Tea Party Republicans and anyone who wants to stop Obamacare “terrorists.” There’s the clue. Even the clueless GOP should be able to see that. They are calling the reasonable people…the patriots…the people who believe in the Constitution…the people who believe exactly what the Founding Fathers believed…the people who want to take power away from corrupt politicians who have put America $17 trillion in debt…terrorists?

That’s because they are Saul Alinsky-ing the GOP. The people trying to purposely hurt America, capitalism and the middle class…are calling the patriots by a terrible name to fool, confuse and distract the public.

Obamacare is a raving, rollicking, fantastic success. Stop calling it a failure. Here is what it was created to do. It is succeeding on all counts.

#1) Obamacare was intended to bring about the Marxist dream- redistribution of wealth. Rich people, small business owners, and the middle class are being robbed, so that the money can be redistributed to poor people (who vote Democrat). Think about it. If you’re rich or middle class, you now have to pay for your own healthcare costs (at much higher rates) AND 40 million other people’s costs too (through massive tax increases). So you’re stuck paying for both bills. You are left broke. Brilliant.

#2) Obamacare was intended to wipe out the middle class and make them dependent on government. Think about it. Even Obama’s IRS predicts that health insurance for a typical American family by 2016 will be $20,000 per year. But how would middle class Americans pay that bill and have anything left for food or housing or living? People that make $40K, or $50K, or $60K can’t possibly hope to spend $20K on health insurance without becoming homeless. Bingo. That’s how you make middle class people dependent on government. That’s how you make everyone addicted to government checks. Brilliant.

#3) As a bonus, Obamacare is intended to kill every decent paying job in the economy, creating only crummy, crappy part-time jobs. Why? Just to make sure the middle class is trapped, with no way out. Just to make sure no one has the $20,000 per year to pay for health insurance, thereby guaranteeing they become wards of the state. Brilliant.

#4) Obamacare is intended to bankrupt small business, and therefore starve donations to the GOP. Think about it. Do you know a small business owner? I know hundreds of them. Their rates are being doubled, tripled and quadrupled by Obamacare. Guess who writes 75% of the checks to Republican candidates and conservative causes? Small business. Even if a small business owner manages to survive, he or she certainly can’t write a big check to the GOP anymore. Money is the “mother’s milk” of politics. Without donations, a political party ceases to exist. Bingo. That’s the point of Obamacare. Obama is bankrupting his political opposition and drying up donations to the GOP. Brilliant.

#5) Obamacare is intended to make the IRS all-powerful. It adds thousands of new IRS agents. It puts the IRS in charge of overseeing 15% of the U.S. economy. The IRS has the right because of Obamacare to snoop into every aspect of your life, to go into your bank accounts, to fine you, to frighten you, to intimidate you. And Obama and his socialist cabal have access to your deepest medical secrets. Or have you forgotten the IRS harassed, intimidated and persecuted critics of Obama and conservative groups? Now Obama hands the IRS even more power. Big Brother rules our lives. Brilliant.

#6) Obamacare is intended to unionize 15 million healthcare workers. That produces $15 billion in new union dues. That money goes to fund Democratic candidates and socialist causes- thereby guaranteeing Obama’s friends never lose another election, and Obama’s policies keep ruining capitalism and bankrupting business owners long after he’s out of office.

Message to the GOP: This isn’t a game. This isn’t tiddly-winks. This is a serious, purposeful attempt to highjack America and destroy capitalism. This isn’t a train wreck. It’s purposeful suicide. It’s not failing, it’s working exactly according to plan. Obama knows what he’s doing. Stop apologizing and start fighting.

Oh and one more thing…Conservatives aren’t “terrorists.” We are patriots and saviors. We represent the Constitution and the Founding Fathers. We are the heroes and good guys. Unless you get all this through your thick skulls, America is lost…forever.
