The American Thinker calls attention to this statement by Obama:
"If there is an Arab-American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney, it threatens my civil liberties."
He says "if", to ostensibly make it hypothetical, but we know that his audience doesn't hear the "if".
What they hear is, "The evil Bush is rounding up innocent Americans and throwing them in jail! The evil Bush is destroying our civil liberties! Bush evil, Obama good!"
He also says Arab American family, to create the picture of an ordinary, law-abiding family, kids, pets, 2-car garage, quietly eating dinner one night when suddenly the goons break down the door.
But this is nonsense. We all know it hasn't happened. As the American Thinker put it,
Even the suggestion it could occur is a profound insult to our nation and our citizenry. It is an image of the gulag, the death camp, the dictatorship, and so inappropriate in any discussion about America, it is beneath our contempt.
Even in those first raw days after 9/11, there was never any rioting against Muslims in this country. There never was any backlash against Arab Americans.
If anything, we've bent over backwards not to make any assumptions about Arabs or Muslims. We all have to endure shoe-removals and pat-downs at the airports, just so we don't appear to be doing any race-profiling.
Once more, we get nothing but demagoguery from Obama, and yet nother smear against America from a far-left candidate.

What's scary is that no matter what happens, this guy's probably going to end up president, the rock is avalanching down that hill right now.
We have to pray that there will be people to handle him, and senators and congressmen to keep him in check, and then we, like our Anti-Bush Uncles-in-law, can put "Hang in there America, January 20, 2013!" as our signatures in our emails.
That's what I've been thinking, too; Ba-rock (get it? ha.ha.) is rolling down that hill too fast to stop.
But even the near-messiah Obama has feet of clay. He stumbled a little on NAFTA and perhaps will stumble again.
It'll be interesting, won't it? What's that adage... "may you live in interesting times"...??
You know, here's something else that may just stop that Ba-rock in his tracks:
His wife. She's showing signs of being a loose cannon.
I don't think it matters what she says, the 'Rock is already rolling. And we haven't even talked about his middle name. Or the trial starting in Illinois right now which may be revealing, but too little too late.
I'm not saying he'll win the presidency, just the nomination. He's gotten this far by revealing very little of what he thinks and believes. My take on that is because there is actually very little that he thinks and believes, but I may be biased.
1.65 million dollar house. Yep, they're working class, just like the rest of us. Oy vey.
