Is Obama making George Orwell’s “1984″ a reality?
May 17th, 2009 | by admin |
ORWELL asked:
Some observations from President Obama’s press conference (tagged by LA Times’ liberal writer, Andrew Malcolm, “Barack Obama’s delivery of no news is quite smooth”): In messages reminiscent of George Orwell’s “1984″ or “Brave New World,” Obama tried to convince us that he’ll cut the deficit by growing the deficit, he’ll get entitlement programs under control by enrolling more dependants, and he’ll grow America’s private sector of the economy by increasing the size, budget, and reach of the federal government to historically unprecedented levels. What’s next? Posters proclaiming “Freedom is slavery,” “War is peace” or “Poverty is wealth”?

No, non-elected federal judges and their court ordered: abortion, forced busing, affirmative action, and minority quotas have long ago made ‘1984′ a reality.
