I Will Not Support Barack Obama Or The Democratic Party Any Longer!


I was on board the Barack Obama campaign from it's inception. I
followed the primaries throughout, advocating for his victory until he
was nominated party candidate for the presidency. After which I
continued to support and advocate for his election victory until the
end was realized.

I believed that he was a genuine man, even though he sometimes puzzled
me with his verbal nuances and matter of fact answers to certain
questions. I also felt that he would truly represent TRUE CHANGE in
Washington-DC, despite the obstacles within and without his democratic
party.

But he has failed miserably to Stand Up and Assert himself as
president of this republic when the time was absolutely necessary for
him to do so. And I will outline some of these missed opportunities or
willful neglect to act credibly.

* Barack Obama promised to revamp the Internet Snooping Regulations
that G. W. Bush used and amended to spy on, and apprehend anyone they
felt was a national threat or suspect terrorist, This preemptive
mentality is still being used by Barack Obama's administration.

* Barack Obama promised to bring the troops home from Iraq, this was
eventually altered somewhat, with a promise to bring some or most
combat troops home by 2011. But current evidence, coupled with a
humongous Embassy built for the Americans in the heart of Baghdad,
makes that promise ludicrous.

* Barack Obama increased the combat troops strength by several
thousands, hoping to cripple the Taliban elements, while propping up a
corrupt President and regime in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, thousands more
US, NATO and Afghan troops and civilians are being killed on a daily
basis.

* The Don't Ask-Don't Tell Law is still not yet repealed, even with
his promise to let the Pentagon and the military Top Brass have their
say and recommendations. Even though the House & Senate currently are
unanimous for the repeal of it.

* Barack Obama and the US House & Senate all supported Israel's
incursion and massacre of hundreds of civilians in Gaza recently. They
even refused to acknowledge any UN sanctions on Israel after the
Goldstone report was made public. And the White Prosperous that was
mostly used to injure and maim civilians was quite evident and proven
factual on the ground in Gaza, by medical personnel and observers
therein.

* The Immigration reform promise is still to be addressed. Even
though some hurried and politically expedient proposals were presented
by some democrats in New York State, for some changes to be made. But
this is not the Comprehensive approach to immigration reform we were
expecting to happen. So this too seem to be a pipe dream for most
supporters of Immigration Reform currently.

* Barack Obama is not respected by the Israeli administration
currently. And he operates as though he is taking orders from prime
minister Nethanyahu. Barack Obama's also dismisses the plight of
Gazans, just because the political administration on that strip of
land is deemed to be terrorists by his administration, and past
presidents.

When in fact, Israel has over one million Palestinians in Gaza under
military seize, destroyed the pure drinking water factory, prevent
food of nutritional value to be brought into Gaza, or any cement,
steel, and building materials from being brought in.

So most Gazans are living in make shift Tents, make shift homes, with
no proper schools, housing, mass unemployment, unwholesome food and
nutrition, and prohibited form travelling within and without Gaza.

While the US, and most of the Arab world leadership, pretends to care
or speak for them.

And the list goes on without any end in sight!
