“That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise”
Limbaugh is wrong, Obama does not hate America, just the rights of property, and the motive of profit
Whether we think …
“If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”
was a gaffe, or not Mr. Obama said something revealing.
Again.
Given his Joe the plumber candid comment, his proud proclamation about fundamentally transforming America, his preference for Czars that are gaian socialists (Van Jones) whose announced preference is to shut up those that disagree (FCC, remember?), his long love for and mentor-ship by church leaders who believe America’s chickens are coming home to roost, AND THAT THAT IS JUST, his dalliance with Ayers and Dorhn … it is simply hard to believe Barack Obama’s America is this america…
“The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence. If `Thou shalt not covet’ and `Thou shalt not steal’ were not commandments of Heaven, they must be made inviolable precepts in every society before it can be civilized or made free.”— John Adams (A Defense of the American Constitutions, 1787)
or this America
“The true foundation of republican government is the equal right of every citizen in his person and property and in their management.” —Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval, 1816. ME 15:36
“A right to property is founded in our natural wants, in the means with which we are endowed to satisfy these wants, and the right to what we acquire by those means without violating the similar rights of other sensible beings.” —Thomas Jefferson to Pierre Samuel Dupont de Nemours, 1816
“[We in America entertain] a due sense of our equal right to… the acquisitions of our own industry.” —Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801.
Just in case Mr. Obama might castigate these men for being slave holders (property in 1789) or those who acquiesced in its existence (Adams) ..
Property is the fruit of labor … property is desirable … is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built.” Abraham Lincoln
or that Obama believes in heeding these warnings for America
“The essence of Government is power; and power, lodged as it must be in human hands, will ever be liable to abuse.”
—James Madison, Speech in the Virginia State Convention of 1829-1830, on the Question of the Ratio of Representation in the two Branches of the Legislature, December 2, 1829
“Government is not reason. It is not eloquence. Government is force; like fire it is a dangerous servant — and a fearful master.”
—George Washington, 1797

"the True Foundation Of Republican Government Is The Equal Right Of Every Citizen In His Person And Property And In Their Management."
