Barbara Simpson, in her June 16 WorldNetDaily column, feels the need to liken Barack Obama to a corrupt dictator:
Tell me quick: What kind of president has Robert Mugabe been for Zimbabwe during 28 years in office?
If you depend on mainstream media, you probably don't know.
On the other hand, tell me quick, what are the specific accomplishments of Barack Obama – his qualifications for office – his specific plans for this country if elected?
If you depend on mainstream media, you probably don't know.
But, I repeat myself.[...]
I do not believe that Obama is a nascent tyrant, but his policies and aims for this country are socialist, which is Marxist-communism light. November's election could change this country dramatically with an increased heavy hand of government control.
Remember: When Robert Mugabe was first elected, he was hailed by the West, the U.S. and indeed, Jimmy Carter, as essentially being Zimbabwe's savior.
Consider what's happened – and Carter has never said a word.
Many people regard Obama as our "savior."
That makes me nervous.
It makes us nervous that we still have five months to go in the election and WND is already peddling this kind of smear.
