BOOK REVIEW – THE ROOTS OF OBAMA’S RAGE
REVEALED: The real motives that drive Barack Obama as he works to destroy America“The most profound insight I have read in the last six years about Barack Obama.” — Newt GingrichThe Roots of Obama’s Rage
by Dinesh D’Souza
Barack Obama: even as his presidency approaches the halfway point, he remains to a great degree an enigma to friend and foe alike. Conservatives have pointed out his hardcore socialist ideology, his immersion in African-American radicalism, and his uncritical endorsement of the failed policies of big government liberalism. But now bestselling author argues that all that is not what is really driving Barack Obama to make the disastrous decisions he continues to make as president. In his shocking new book, The Roots of Obama’s Rage, D’Souza explains that the real reasons why Obama appears bent on working to destroy America from within can be found in the first of our callow and self-absorbed president’s two autobiographies, Dreams From My Father.
There are numerous other examples of Obama’s embarrassment with and distaste for Western civilization and its legacy of freedom. D’Souza also points out that the Churchill bust in the Oval Office — given to the U.S. by Tony Blair after the September 11 attacks — was banished from the Obama White House almost immediately after the president took office, and unceremoniously sent back to Britain. He reveals how Obama’s conference on Iran and North Korea’s nuclear weapons programs ended with nothing being done about Iran and North Korea, but with reductions in the Soviet and American stockpiles. D’Souza even explores the ominous implications of Obama’s twenty years in the Afrocentric church of the Reverend Wright, noting that Obama was first attracted to this racist, far-Left church by a sign outside that said: FREE AFRICA.
The Roots of Obama’s Rage uniquely reveals Obama for who he really is: a man driven by the anti-colonial ideology of his father and the first American president to actually seek to reduce America’s strength, influence, and standard of living. Controversial and compelling, The Roots of Obama’s Rage is an original and revealing look at the most dangerous president of modern times.
Meet the real Barack Obama:
- Why understanding Obama’s formative history is crucial to understanding who Obama is now
- Obama’s supreme struggle: to try to reconcile the Africa of his father and the America of his mother in order to develop a cohesive sense of identity and place
- Barack Obama’s hatred: how his experiences with his father filled him with hatred — a calm, ideological hatred derived from the debris of the anti-colonial wars and their impact on his family and especially his father
- Why it is not entirely accurate to call Obama a socialist
- How Obama seeks to castigate and expose the rich, whom he views as a neocolonial force within American society, so that they cease to be exploiters of the rest of the population
- How Barack Obama, a man of Arab African and white American ancestry, became identified as a black American
- How Obama self-consciously rejected his father’s American nickname in favor of the senior Obama’s African identity
- The shocking core belief that explains Obama’s friendship and association with the radical activist/terrorist Bill Ayers
- Why, despite being a son of Africa and obviously being very concerned about Africa’s present and future, Obama can offer Africa essentially nothing
- How critics of Obama’s absurd moral equivalence and criticism of America missed the real point of Obama’s statements
- How Obama clearly prefers the kind of patriotism that is not associated with the 9/11 attacks and America’s subsequent actions in Afghanistan and Iraq — and how, in Obama’s world, we show our love for our country not through jingoistic flag-waving and foreign expeditions, but rather by agitating for domestic policies that take from the haves and give to the have-nots
- How, while one might expect a president to be mostly concerned with protecting the American people from terrorist attack, Obama’s primary concern seems to be with protecting captured terrorists from the American military
- Behind cap and trade: why, for Obama, high oil prices aren’t the problem; America’s level of consumption is the problem — and America’s energy “addiction” is presumed to be a new form of neocolonial exploitation
