The Obama Testament
by
Howard Jacobs
President Obama has often been looked to as a prophet; an almost Godlike figure. So, it seems appropriate to see how the Old Testament would look if Obama had been a part of it.

Obama and His Lottery Winner Syndrome
by
Donald M White
What would be the chance in politics of a real rags to riches story? Who would have thought that a well educated, but relatively poor, young man from South Chicago could become president? What kind of odds would there be for a community organizer to strike the political mother load prize of all elections, the White House? Practically unthinkable, but yet that is what has happened in our lifetimes.

The article concludes with suggested steps needed in order to restore liberty and avoid the dysfunctional government of "1984."

The Company He Keeps - Who is Barack Obama?
by
C. Daugherty
Isn't it true that a person can be known by the company he keeps? After reading Barack Obama's Dreams From My Father, I'm left perplexed by Obama's denunciation of Rev. Jeremiah Wright this week. Obama's pleading ignorance on Wright's character is contradicted by what he says in his own book. The Wright he saw speak at the National Press Club IS the same person he met 20 years ago. What's more, Dreams reveals a long-standing pattern of Obama choosing friends and associates who see the world exclusively through a prism of racial division.

Barack Obama and the Future of Our World
by
Susanta Bhattacharyya
In his Presidential Inaugural Address, Obama lectured American citizens to "Prepare the nation for a new age" and extended his cautioned words to "those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West" that the people will "judge you by what you build, not what you destroy." It will be interesting to watch how much significant change Mr. Obama can bring to America's imperialist and violent foreign policy. Only time can tell whether he has actually inherited the legacy of blatant hypocrisy, immoral double-standards and shameful contradictions of former American presidents or not. The world will eagerly wait to watch how much he builds or destroys in the coming days.

Meet the New Boss, Same As the Old Boss - Are Obama and Bush Really That Different?
by
Bruno Korschek
This line is from a classic Who song, "We Won't Get Fooled Again." Unfortunately, it looks like we did get fooled again, electing a new President in 2008 that has turned out to be not much different than the previous one or the one before that or the one before that, etc. Let's take a look at the first year and a half of the Obama Presidency and see how similar he is to his predecessor, George W. Bush, and others before Bush:
