WND's Porter: If we don't stop Obama "dictatorship ... we'll lose our lives"

June 17, 2009 1:56 pm ET by Media Matters staff

In her June 16 WorldNetDaily.com column, radio host Janet Porter writes that the Obama "dictatorship must be stopped. And it must be stopped now. If we don't, we'll lose more than our strongest ally in the Middle East and the free market - we'll lose our lives." From her column:

In the same way he doesn't want to interfere with the so-called "elections" in Iran, he doesn't want to interfere with Tehran's efforts to obtain nuclear power. He'll give them until the end of the year to gain all the nuclear power they need to obtain their fundamental goal of wiping Israel off the map. But, rest assured, after that, he'll engage in some serious dialogue.

No, Obama doesn't want to dictate to other nations what they should do. Unless that nation is Israel. When it comes to Israel, he wants full dictatorship. I wouldn't be surprised if he were to appoint another unaccountable czar to rule over them.

[...]

In the same "Apology tour" highlighting America's arrogance for "dictating" policy, Obama also used his political power to try and force the European Union to admit Muslim Turkey into their midst. Thankfully, France and Germany wisely opposed his dictates.

And while we're on the subject of the arrogance of such "dictates," Obama, who said he wasn't interested in taking over the Auto industry, has done just - closing dealerships based not on their success, but on their politics. Those who opposed his candidacy are out of business, and those who gave him the most money remain open, even if their dealerships weren't successful. Auto czars and pay czars that answer to no one but the dictator in chief are making policy as we speak. They have taken over the banks, and now they want to run your health care.

This dictatorship must be stopped. And it must be stopped now. If we don't, we'll lose more than our strongest ally in the Middle East and the free market - we'll lose our lives.

      I really want to know... what's the rabid right's suggestion on US policy toward the election fallout in Iran? That Obama must openly support Mousavi?

      Is giving the Iranians any hint that Mousavi is a puppet of the U.S. really a good idea?

        Of course not, but what "good ideas" DO these guys have anyway? Hearing McCain's comments this morning on NPR reminded me why I voted for Obama: Hot head versus cool head. McCain is fire and Obama is ice. And enough of the world is burning after eight years of fire making decisions. Time to cool things off a bit. And that's the best chance Mousavi has.

          The right wing wants a cowboy movie. They want Obama to go galloping in, guns blazing and to hang all the bad guys and have all the purty wimmenfolk fall all over our brave and heroic troops and to have everything put right.

      Apparently, being right-wing ubber-conservative also equates to acting like a 16-year old spoiled brat who kicks, screams and pulls hair until they get their way!

      It's not Ok to just disagree with Obama.

      He must be "STOPPED" or "WE'LL LOSE OUR LIVES".

      The scary part is just how many zealots there are out there that believe this garbage.

      And how do we propose to stop the "dictatorship"? Is this yet another right wing incitement of violence that they will no doubt get away with?

      If "conservatives" are so concerned about spending, they should consider for a moment how much more their hateful rhetoric is costing us in secret service protection.

      Who is the beyotch?

      How dare she characterize France of all places as "wise?"

      She's obviously some sort of SOCIALIST sleeper agent placed among our midst long ago.

      See you must watch out for this type of stuff if you want to be a true CONSERVATIVE.

      Jeez. Talk about hyperbole there. Catch your breath. Count to 10. Now relax...

      1st, Obama was democratically elected. And hence, no dictatorship. Don't like what he's doing? Campaign against him in 2012, or look for some way that he broke the law, and impeach him. Since you can't do the 2nd, might as well just wait to see who your side trots out in 2012 to try and defeat Obama. Something tells me, the GOP won't win.

      2nd, no matter what you think, Iran is not stupid. Even if, and or when they have a nuclear weapon, they're not going to use it on Israel. They won't dare to. Why? First, look at their location. Kind of close to people that Iran likes. Second, Iran full and well knows the consequences of if they did something like that to Israel, which would the destruction of their own country, and taking down of their regime. Again, they're not stupid, but sometimes they talk stupid.

      3rd, Turkey being somewhat of a Muslim country had nothing to do with them not being accepted into the EU, which would have benefitted everyone if they had been.

      4th, Obama didn't close any dealerships, the car companies did. Stop with the repeating of tired, worn out, debunked talking points.

      5th, stop with the Czar talk. George W had more than 20 some odd Czars during his 2 terms and yet, you weren't hyperventilating over it at that point in time. Calm yourself.

      6th, nobody is talking about government run health care. Of course, you don't care about this, unless you want to enforce your will on women who want to have an abortion, or 2 gay folks who want to get married.

      7th, Bush started the bank takeovers. Just remember where it all started.

      8th, you're safer now than you were before. Stop talking about losing your life. It's ridiculous.

      WND is hoping someone in fear of their lives will act out violently to stop the "Obama Dictatorship". Then they can wonder aloud why someone would do something so terrible.

      I hope it doesn't take another Oklahoma City for these crackpots to realize their words have consequence.

      To all those who name the name of Christ who plan to willfully disobey Him by voting for Obama, take warning. Not only is our nation in grave danger, according to the Word of God, so are you.

      Clearly there is absolutely nothing that President Obama can do to appease these lunatics. My thinking is that he just needs to do the exact opposite of what these freaks advocate and we'll all be better off.

      Listen you clueless nut job. George W. Bush got fewer votes and yet ended up taking office.

      He expanded the use of signing statements to ignore the plain letter of the law.

      He asked Americans to spy on each other.

      He introduced warrantless wiretaps, sneak and peek searches, and detention without charges, the right to counsel, or habeus corpus.

      He used the military to further his individual objectives in a war of choice, not necessity.

      He condemned as traitors anyone who merely DISAGREED with him.

      He spoke in person only to carefully chosen, supportive partisan audiences.

      He used law enforcement, most notably the Secret Service, to suppress dissent.

      He used the justice system, including federal prosecutors, to launch partisan prosecutions of his opponents and bury actual evidence of wrongdoing by his supporters.

      He used members of his administration to threaten reporters and commentators who didn't agree with hi.

      He paid members of the media to write fawning praise of himself and his administration.

      He created fake journalists (Jeff Gannon), to disseminate his message and attack his opponents.

      You know what those actions are? A dictatorship. Oh, but that was OK, because you supported THAT president, right?

      So, you're not against dictatorship so much as you're against being out of power.

        And while I think of it, don't forget who said THIS:

        "I told all four that there were going to be some times where we don't agree with each other. But that's OK. If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator."

        NOT Obama.
