The target is Obama!

Many people are convinced that this President has done more to destroy the United States in three years than all the other presidents combined. The only hope of preventing another four years of even more drastic destructive policies is the election of one of the four remaining Republican candidates. The two frontrunners are using their time and resources, even on national television where they can be seen by the public, arguing over whether Newt's consulting contract with Freddie Mac is "lobbying," or whether Mitt is a moderate. Wake up gentlemen; the target is Obama!

There are only a few fleeting months before people will go to the polls to choose America's next leader. The candidates should not waste a moment trying to tear each other down. The target is Obama. People need to know about his destructive policies and how they are destroying America.

They need to know that Obama speaks in a highly specialized language of deceit and misdirection. For example, his EPA has been studying the Keystone Pipeline project for three years. It could have been approved at least two years ago, or rejected, were identified and documented flaws found. But no, Obama decided to put off a decision until after the 2012 election in an effort to appease both his environmental and union friends. This action blocked as many as 20,000 well-paying private-sector jobs that could begin immediately, and produce another 100,000 jobs as the pipeline began operation.

This action follows months of Obama telling the American people that his first priority is jobs, jobs, jobs.

When Congressional Republicans required him to reconsider and make a decision in 60 days as a condition of extending tax cuts until year's end, Obama again refused to approve the project, blaming the Republicans for trying to force a decision without adequate study. How many more years of study does the project need? Obama doesn't want jobs for the American people; he wants to force the America people to stop using petroleum, and force them to use what he calls "green" energy. Obama is determined to be the Social Engineer-in-Chief, and force people to live the way he thinks they should.

If he were he truly concerned about jobs for Americans, and if he truly wanted industries to bring their foreign manufacturing jobs back to America, he would never have denied Hawker-Beechcraft the opportunity to bid on a new $1 billion contract for a new airplane. But he did, and he has indicated that the contract will go to a Brazilian company that is currently under investigation by the U.S. Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Remember when Obama loaned $2 billion to Brazil for off- shore oil exploration?

What's wrong with this President? Why is he denying Americans access to American oil reserves and blocking 20,000 America jobs, while he is funding the exploration of oil off the coast of Brazil, and providing Brazilians with jobs? Why is he blocking American manufacturers from bidding on a billion-dollar defense contract in order to send more — what should be American airplane-building jobs — to Brazil?

Republican candidates: when you have the microphone and a TV camera, tell the world about Obama's destructive policies; don't argue about who's an "insider" and who's an "outsider. The target is Obama.

The Heritage Foundation reports that:
    "...4 out of every 5 renewable energy companies backed by the Energy Department were run by or primarily owned by Obama financial backers. In the (Section 1705) government-backed-loan program [alone], for example, $16.4 billion of the $20.5 billion in loans granted as of Sept. 15 went to companies either run by or primarily owned by Obama financial backers. Tens of billions of dollars went to firms controlled or owned by fundraisers, bundlers, and political allies, many of whom — surprise! — are now raising money for Obama again."
It's far more important that every American voter know about Obama's cronyism — with their tax dollars — than which candidate is most conservative. The target is Obama.

Rest assured that Obama's well-oiled and better-funded political machine is champing at the bit to unleash a tsunami of attacks against the Republican candidate — regardless of which candidate is nominated. There is no time for the Republican candidates to bicker among themselves. Moreover, voters are sick and tired of hearing it. There is a real risk of turning off voters who could stay at home on November 6th.

Every American should carefully examine what Obama has done since he was inaugurated. Sort out the bad from the worst. Listen carefully to him declare that he will use Executive Orders, Presidential decrees, recess appointments (while there is no recess), and any other tactic he can think of to impose his vision of how America ought to be. Watch him trash the Constitution — as with ObamaCare. Watch him manipulate, bypass, and ignore Congress — as with the 30 bills passed by the House that puppet Majority Leader Harry Reid will not allow the Senate to even consider.

Every person who respects the U.S. Constitution and wants to restore the United States it created must understand that the target is Obama!
