Cicero and Obama
October 14th, 2015
You are probably familiar with the epigram "the more things change the more they remain the same", but are perhaps neither familiar with nor care about its source. In any event, Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr, a highly intelligent French critic, journalist, and novelist, coined it circa 1850. I have always found Karr's epigram to be true but am not citing it for pure enlightenment. So what does this have to do with Cicero and Obama you ask. Please be indulgent for this short blog and my purpose will be perfectly clear.

The greatest orator of the late Roman Republic, Marcus Tullius Cicero, 106BC - 43 BC, commonly known as Cicero, astutely stated the following about treason:


  "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear."

In my opinion Obama is intentionally destroying America's culture, traditions, and values with much of the resulting damage being irreparable. Many of his acts and edicts have been in arrogant contravention of the U.S. Constitution and he has utterly failed to enhance the incredible greatness our country once enjoyed. To the contrary, America has become a country in decline and laughed at by the world as it watches her self-destruct from within. This once unthinkable situation is a direct result of Obama's actions and the willful acquiescence of his Congressional sycophants, all in blatant violation of their respective oaths of office to protect and defend America.

It is abundantly clear that times have changed in the 2000 years since Cicero orated so brilliantly but treason remains the same today.

Obama has been the "luckiest" recipient of the most scandalous support by a palpably leftist press in history. Everything from his mysterious background, e.g., no college records of his courses, grades or writings, even in law school where is was editor of the Harvard Law Review. More astounding is the total lack of interest on the part of the "watchdog" press as to anything of interest in his life, aside from the formulaic, controlled bio notes about his youth in Indonesia and high school in Hawaii. Where the public was made aware of every after beer belch by George Bush, including his drunken episodes as a student and myriad testimonies by college chums of all his frat boy peccadilloes, we know nothing of his student years, and the otherwise hound dog press cares nothing and, most importantly, suppresses any queries by public or private parties about his past, the obvious complicity stinks on dry ice.

It may take years, but someday, someone will reveal some facts about his past that have been hidden by a totally sycophantic press. My guess is it could well come from someone like Bill Ayers who already said he wrote Audacity of Hope and not Obama...but the press didn't press this issue to determine whether it was true. Wherever or from whomever it comes, the public will feel they've been swindled big time by the revelations.

Cicero was a brilliant man, blessed with abundant 'foresight'. It is nice to read statements made 2000 years ago, that adds credence to my theory, that Barack Hussein Obama's only goal, as President of the USA, has been to destroy our Country, from within.
