Obama wants U.S. defenseless

Barack Obama's own administration may still be trying to explain away his announcement that the U.S. would never respond to a biological or chemical weapons attack on America with nuclear weapons, but this is hardly the first gaffe suggesting the man in the White House has no interest in defending the homeland.

Much less news coverage was afforded the decision by his Congress to defund an incredibly promising project that could offer protection to all U.S. citizens currently vulnerable to missile attack – including those carrying biological, chemical and nuclear weapons.

On Feb. 11, a high-powered laser successfully shot down a ballistic missile in a test off the coast of California. That was when the "airborne laser aircraft" demonstrated it is capable of destroying a missile traveling at 4,000 miles per hour.

This might have been greeted with sighs of relief given the news that has dominated the world lately – Iran's nuclear program and North Korea's nuclear tests. But it wasn't. Instead, it was greeted with a collective yawn from the complacent yet undefended American public and a choice by the Obama administration and Democratic-dominated Congress to pull the plug on the airborne laser system.

At the same time, the Obama administration is green-lighting plans by America's top technology companies, including Google and Yahoo!, to transfer strategic computer know-how to China, which is already acknowledged to be working on cyberwarfare capabilities that could pose tactical challenges to the U.S. in any future conflict.

Why should any of this surprise us? Obama's so-called "science czar," John Holdren, visited the Soviet Union during the Cold War as vice chairman of a group whose founder was accused of providing vital nuclear information that helped the Soviets build their atom bomb. http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=126950

Holdren also has endorsed a "surrender of sovereignty" to what he called "a comprehensive Planetary Regime" that would control all the world's resources, direct global redistribution of wealth, oversee the "de-development" of the West, control a world army and taxation, and enforce world population controls.

However, it's worth noting not everyone in the world community shares Obama's apparent fondness for "we are the world"-style totalitarianism. Some countries would prefer to impose their own will on the rest of us.

In China, for instance, Senior Col. Liu Mingfu published a book, with the approval of Beijing, that calls for his country to make a "sprint" toward becoming the world's dominant military superpower.

China has also reportedly developed a high-tech ballistic missile capable of sinking U.S. aircraft carriers.

There can be no confusion about what China is doing with its aggressive military arms buildup.

Beijing may already be in full sprint for the finish line – a military showdown with the U.S. when America can least afford it.

As I've said before, I don't think Obama is dumb. I think he's a reasonably intelligent person fully capable of seeing what I'm seeing and understanding what it means.

I can only assume he likes seeing the U.S. weakened and China rising without challenge.

I can only assume he likes seeing America civilians undefended and unprotected against attack.

I can only assume he likes seeing the U.S. pushing itself into a corner of helplessness and crisis.

I can only assume he likes seeing the world's playing field leveled as much as he enjoys seeing America's income redistributed.

I can only assume he intends to play all of this to his own political advantage.

I can only assume his globalist sympathies are more important to him than the lives and safety of 300 million Americans he swore an oath to defend.

I can only assume his bizarre, twisted and un-American sense of morality is more important to him than the oath he swore to uphold the Constitution.

This man is dangerous – not just to our liberties but to our very lives and the very future of America.
