There is a largely ignored, little known or understood demographic out there, that the Obama Thugfest would prefer stayed silent or went away. America’s veterans are only usually consulted or cited when some one, or another politician, needs to use us for election, or to save an incumbency, or to legitimize some political scheme or another. This by NO measure is meant to denigrate the excellent works of Veteran’s Organizations such as The American Legion, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Marine Corps League and the Purple Heart Society. There are others with which I am not as familiar, they are not excluded here on purpose. These organizations are known for their selfless good works and generosity. Heretofore, they have been pretty much the only voice of millions of veterans, past and present. This a huge and GROWING demographic…there are some 23.7 MILLION vets out there of all stripes. Women, Men, Hispanics, Blacks, Whites, and Asians. They have one thing in common…a profound love and respect for this country, the Constitution they swore to protect and defend and the service they gave.

Naturally, as with any large grouping there are notable exceptions. The Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Obama’s mentor and the guy Obama listened to spewing hatred against the country that nurtured him for 20 years, is one. He was a naval hospital corpsman. And there is John ‘Gunboats’ Kerry, who clandestinely met with our enemy, the North Vietnamese, in the dark of night in Paris, France, and then with instructions from his handlers firmly in mind returned home to stab his erstwhile brothers-in-arms in the back by going in front of Congress and manufacturing atrocities, supposedly committed by US forces, out of whole cloth. There are the inevitable dropouts to alcohol and drugs…but this is nothing new and has  been with us from every war. This is a miniscule number when considered against the whole…most of us come back, live our lives as responsible citizens, husbands, wives, fathers and mothers. I used to wonder what would happen if this largely passive, immense demographic were pushed to the point of intolerability by an increasingly oppressive and unresponsive government. I may get a chance to find out.

There is an emerging group of veterans, both active and retired, and police active and retired. They are called “Oath Keepers” who have pledged to prevent dictatorship in this country by pledging  to ask police and the military to lay down their arms and not obey orders they deem unlawful or unconstitutional, and to stand by their Oaths to the Constitution. You know…the first American revolution didn’t start over a hell of a lot more than this. Please note: these folks are NOT calling for the overthrow of the government…though this government certainly needs a wake up call. Neither are they calling for armed insurrection. They are simply calling for our elected government and the people who are supposed to represent us in it, who swore to OBEY the Constitution of the United States of America to… ABIDE BY THE OATHS THEY AFFIRMED BEFORE GOD!!

By now everyone has heard the comments from Obama's (former) Reverend, Jeremiah Wright blaming the Jews for his own isolation from his student (Obama) whom he married and who's children he baptised. So far, most of the reporting on this story is merely focused upon Wright and his blatant anti-Semitic ranting and antiJewism. The comments were played out in the context of his ridiculous accusations against the "Zionist's" and make believe ethnic cleansing of Gaza, an area ruled by Hamas and from where Israel withdrew in 2005.

What has not received as much attention is what is running between the lines of the Wright rant.

The reporter, David Squires of the http://www.dailypress.com/news/dp-local_wright_0610jun10,0,7603283.story  (Daily Press) speaking to Wright after the 95th annual Hampton University Ministers' Conference asked Wright what he would tell Obama, if his access were not cut off. Wright said he would tell him what he has told him all along (paraphrasing) that Obama should not let politics change who he is as a person. He counseled Obama to not let "policies and the people around him" change what he believes with the core and "fiber of your being". Wright concluded that if Obama compromised his beliefs he would turn into a puppet of a political machine and would no longer be himself. Incidentally, when Wright made his 'Jews around him' comment, Squires, the reporter, snickered. Whether that was an approving snicker or an embarrassed one is a question for Squires. Interestingly, the audio found at the Daily Press (Squire's newspaper) website cuts out the snicker. But the audio at  http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2009/06/10/rev_wright_them_jews_wont_let_obama_talk_to_me.html"  (Real Clear Politics)does not cut out the snicker. David any comment?

When all of this is taken in context, Wright, arguably someone who knows B. Hussein Obama better than most, is describing him as a comrade who is in danger of losing touch. The question which should be asked is, what is Wright worried that Obama will forget? Dare we pose the question?

Today, no one doubts that Wright believes in layer upon layer of Jewish conspiracy theories of Jews running the government, controlling the Presidency, Zionists ethnically cleansing arabians from Gaza and all and all making life difficult for honest folk like himself. But what does he expect Obama to say? More importantly, what does Wright mean when he talks about Obama forgetting what he believes?

The hardest pill to swallow is when a close, personal, confident and protege, someone you placed great faith and, well, hope in, turns his back on you - shuns you. Wright is clearly bitter in a personal way. But he also expresses anxiety that his cause has been denied one of it's budding stars; at least for the time being. After all, Wright believes Obama will come back to the fold when he is a lame duck.

What beliefs, theories and conspiracies does/did Obama buy into during the height of his activity at Trinity? The vast overwhelming body of evidence would be convincing to anyone when not obscured by a political campaign and the mark of Democrat next to his name on the ballot intervening between common sense and hysteria. As APRPEH aprpeh.blogspot.com pointed out in the past, one must work very hard indeed to assemble as many antiJews as friends, advisers and colleagues as Obama assembled over the previous decades. That so many Jews not just fail, but refuse to look objectively at this fact is a sure sign of the weariness of exile, a luxury not afforded to Bibi Netanyahu and Israel who are beginning to understand with whom they now must deal.
