The Republican Party is hell-bent on vilifying any hint of liberal thinking in the American mainstream. They appear to believe it is okay to sacrifice the financial wherewithal of everyday Americans by undermining any efforts by President Barack Obama to guide the nation out of Great Depression II. Thus, conservatism is the Republicans’ 2010 mantra.

First let us call upon the words of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had to clean up the Republican Party's financial mess from Great Depression I, for his view on the conservative.  “A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward.” Does that suggest that today’s Republicans are yearning for a return of the modern day robber barons that raped and pillage the US economy?

President Roosevelt made two other quotes that give reason to attempt to guesstimate the deleterious implications of Republican anti-Obama antics. “Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself.” and “In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.”

With the national unemployment rate at 9.5 percent coupled with the Republicans stymieing every effort put forth by the Obama Administration coupled with America’s corporate leadership overly nervous about hiring new workers even though they are profitable suggest either there is massive fear or a sinister oligarchy plot underway.

If America’s economic stagnation is caused by corporate executive fear, then it is most likely honest. We must remind these executive what President Roosevelt taught that we need only have fear of fear itself.

On the other hand if a Republican oligarchy developed a political strategy to prolong the current economic crisis, we must debate whether they have morphed into strategic pawns of Al Qaeda. The Great Chinese war philosopher, Sun Tzu, teaches that “All war is based on deception.” The real Al Qaeda strategic objective is to cause a Western Economic meltdown creating a financial catastrophe that will make political conditions appropriate for the rise of radical Islamic law.    

Al Qaeda is well aware that Sun Tzu Teaches, “There is no instance of a nation benefitting from prolonged warfare.” Thus, Al Qaeda knows the longer the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan drag on they are winning by destroying the US economy. But Al Qaeda must have underestimated President Obama’s resolve to devalue Middle Eastern oil by kindling the advent of alternative fuel sources. President Obama also refused to allow the world to slip into a full economic depression.

It appears that President Obama is a worst case scenario for Al Qaeda for he lived under Islamic culture that afforded him an opportunity to understand the enemy’s mindset. Sun Tzu teaches, “Know your enemy and know yourself and you can fight a hundred battles without disaster.”

As the suicide attacks get bolder, they really are a gauge that the West is winning. The Western fighters are learning to fight Al Qaeda because they are getting to know the enemy as they know themselves. Today, Al Qaeda is recruiting American born fighters because they do not know the enemy as they know themselves.

Al Qaeda has been exploiting American greed and nativism. Oil disruptions gave oil speculators a freehand to tax the world based upon an oil shortage paranoia. The US saw gasoline rise over four dollars per gallon during President George Bush’s late tenure up from under two dollars per gallon during his early tenure in office. President Obama getting control over the speculators is obviating American greed out of Al Qaeda’s economic attack arsenal.

However, the Republicans appear to be pulling defeat out of the jaws of victory by refusing to work out compromises with President Obama and the Democrats. The Republicans took a major step towards national suicide by working to put a wedge between President Obama and the American people through allowing ultra rightwing propaganda to become the de facto party mantra.

Al Qaeda got to celebrate when Republicans wanted to deny 30 million American people healthcare. The Republican Party managed to put a persona non grata welcome mat out for nonwhite Americans. Today’s Republican Party is ignoring the teaching of the Great Republican President Abraham Lincoln, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.”  

Thus I would like to know: 1) Are Republicans allowing the American people to suffer depression level hardship as the social cost of their dream of regaining political power in 2010? 2) Does the Republican leadership understand that they are aiding and abetting Al Qaeda when they just say no to everything? 3) Has the Republican leadership written off nonwhite America?
