The Radical Idea

If Obama and his Democrats are able to demonize enough businesses, they believe the American people will gladly embrace socialism. Government causes the crisis we find ourselves in with regulations against "redlining", forcing bank to issue sub-prime loans which the borrowers could never pay back. Government oversight is so lax that Madoff criminality ensues on a different front, but to Obama and his minions, free enterprise is the culprit. Government washes its hands, absolves itself and passes the buck to those who actually built prosperity for the nation. This is all part of an effort to alter America irrevocably. If we are lucky, we may become a relatively benign socialist country with only slightly less civil liberty-only a few of our God-given rights stolen. If Obama is as determined as I think he is-we are on our way to a Trotskyesque, Marxist enterprise with very few freedoms preserved and very few places to flee. "BO" is an implacable opponent of the values of the Founding Fathers, and there may not be enough opposition in the Congress to stem the leftist tide.
