It appears that Barack Hussein Obama - that champion of Community Organizers - is frightened by the prospect of Conservatives doing the same. It has historically been very easy for the Left to march toward their goals because they faced no resistance from their opposition.

Conservatives never actually got together before to act on their displeasure with the Socialist advance that has been going on in this country for decades, mainly because they were too busy building their lives, families and ultimately, a nation. Now, however, with the Left poised to topple and ruin all that Conservatives have toiled to accomplish, the gloves are off.

Barack Hussein Obama was in Austin, Texas on August 9th to deliver - yes, another - speech to a friendly audience at a Democratic National Committee (DNC) finance event, and after a rambling diatribe that opened his remarks by blaming his predecessor and the Republican party for our current ills, finally got to his attacks on a group of ...Community Organizers. He called out the organization Americans for Prosperity (AFP) because they have had the audacity to oppose his agenda, and he did it by name.

Ironically, Obama worries that we who donate to AFP really don't know who they are and he claims that all the Democrats have asked for is disclosure. Funny how we never knew where all of Obama's campaign money came from, yet he still wants the other side to "fess up", a notion that prompted his heinous rebuke of the Supreme Court at his State of the Union Address. If he's worried about how we spend our money, I have a laundry list of advice for him, but that's for another time.

For anyone with the stomach to read through it all, the full text of Obama's Austin speech is here. For an excerpt of his attack on AFP, I have mercifully provided it below:
