Obama Isn’t On The Ballot, But His Policies And Supporters In Congress Are!

by Steven "Buck" Adams, Letter to Editor: TERRORISM IS DEFEATED AND AL-QUIDA IS ON THE RUN was a 2012 election campaign proclamation by President Obama...truth or just another deceptive campaign strategy?

I have in my possession a copy of the Branson Daily Independent newspaper from early October 2012. In that paper is an (AP) article titled: “Al-Qaida revival begins after US troop withdrawal”. That withdrawal was completed in December, 2011 against the advice of many chief military advisors and the Secretary Of Defense, Leon Penetta.

THE ARTICLE in summary says: al-Qaida has been setting up training camps for insurgents in the Iraq’s western deserts and has been seizing on regional instability and government security failures to rebuild their strength. Attacks have been on the increase for the last 10 weeks. It is believed that most of the fighters are former prisoners that were released or escaped from Iraqi jails after the U.S. military withdrawal in December 2011. The insurgent group has more than doubled in numbers from about 1,000 to 2500 over the past year, and the number of attacks from 75 a week to 140 a week from earlier this year according to Pentagon data. Sen Lindsey Graham stated: AQI is coming back!

My assumption: Either this (AP) article is a fabrication or it is further proof that we are being deliberately mislead (or out-right lied to) by our President!

I shared the article with a local newspaper editor about two weeks before the 2012 election and asked if he was aware of the article. He said no. My guess is that the article was available to all newspaper companies throughout the nation, but to protect the President, and his political allies, many didn’t publish it. Why? Probably because many undecided voters as well as some likely faithful party liners would be very concerned about a resurgence of terrorism and the threat to U.S. security...as well as the threat to friendly nations and strategic Muslim nations. This along with potential exposure of the Benghazi cover up and our porous Mexican border situation could have spelled re-election doom for Obama and his political party support group in Congress.

Since 2012 you can add the exchange of five Muslim terrorists for an apparent U.S. military deserter (the Army recently stated it will not release information on the investigation); the indecisive, sluggish, and delayed military intervention to combat the surge and takeover by ISIS of vital territories in Iraq and Syria; Christians being bullied, killed, and driven from their homes; and the slaughter of many defenders in that region. Of course, it took the beheading of two American journalists to even alert a lot of the public to the danger and threat ISIS poses and to get the liberal media outlets to fess up about the resurgence of terrorism.

So, you may be asking why is it so important for making an issue of this matter at this particular time — Obama is not up for re-election! Well, Obama isn’t up for re-election, but his policies and many supporters in Congress are!!! It is a Democrat controlled Congress that leaves the doors open for him to impose his will…; get by with dodging and stonewalling concerning scandals and cover-ups …; and gives little resistance to his side-stepping the Constitution when he can’t go through Congress to impose his will.

I may be going out on a limb…, BUT, have suspicions at times: WHOSE SIDE IS HE ON!?!

I just hope that those potential voters that are really concerned about the leadership of our NATION and our National security get out and vote!
