An Open Letter Of Apology To President Barack Obama

by Sherwood Ross

 

Dear DEAR President Obama,

 

Now that you have signed the National Defense Appropriation Act into law giving yourself the power to arrest and imprison any American indefinitely, I want to tell you how very very very very very sorry I am for all those nasty things I wrote about you.

Name-calling is never appropriate and I should have known better, especially when I compared you to Benito (“Three cheers for war!”) Mussolini for making undeclared wars in Africa.

In retrospect, I was way off base. Since the NDAA nullifies the Constitution, you might agree with Mussolini’s viewpoint, “Mankind is tired of liberty” but that’s definitely where the comparison stops.

Mussolini was a fat slob whereas everyone can see you are the leanest, trimmest, handsomest president we’ve had in the White House since JFK, maybe handsomer.

Likewise, I’m exceedingly sorry I wrote U.S. forces in Afghanistan are killing innocent people every day. I know that is not their intent.

As Hermann Goring once said, “I am in the habit of shooting from time to time and if I sometimes make mistakes, at least I have shot.”

Handcuffed Mickey Cohen with Girlfriend Sandra Hagen - Standing by Her Man

Since comparing your actions to a top Nazi is odious, let’s just say as the noted American gangster Mickey Cohen once boasted, “I never killed a man that didn’t deserve it.”

Sure, it’s technically an “assassination” to execute people without a trial but your suspects were fingered by the CIA.

We need to keep in mind you’re striving to reduce terrorism, not necessarily uphold the law for, to quote J. Edgar Hoover, “Justice is incidental to law and order.”

If the CIA had the smarts to grab you right out of college and give you a job, I’d be surprised they could be so mistaken as to order the execution of innocent people.

The late President Nixon may have said of them, “What the hell do those clowns do out there in Langley?” but what did he know? Actually, you can now take comfort from Nixon’s words, “When the president does it, that means it’s not illegal.”

Anyway, while I’m apologizing to you, please tell the CIA I take back all those nasty things I wrote, saying they’re the world’s biggest criminal syndicate ever, and comparing it to the Ku Klux Klan for operating in secret, kidnapping and lynching.

We all know the CIA’s critics do tend to exaggerate. Some say the Agency’s overthrown 30 countries by force and violence when it’s probably been just 26 or so.

As ex-CIA Director William Colby once said, “I have definitional problems with the word ‘violence.’ I don’t know what the word ‘violence’ means.”

Colby - The Man Nobody Knew

At times, the Agency may have run amok here and there but at least it showed its smarts by not copying the KKK’s cross burnings, which definitely would have made us look bad in Muslim countries.

So I’m glad you refused to prosecute CIA torturers. Incidentally, when the Agency destroyed its torture flicks, it didn’t prove obstruction of justice so much as not wanting to make Hollywood producers look like action movie amateurs.

Imagine a scene in which a CIA agent says of a waterboard victim, “He sleeps with the fishes” and it’s for real, not fictional like in “The Godfather.”

When you leave the White House, you might consider Hollywood. You’d grasp the true meaning of Samuel Goldwyn’s words, “A verbal contract isn’t worth the paper it’s written on” because without a Constitution now everything’s gonna be verbal.

I also apologize for describing you as the moral opposite of Rev. Martin Luther King, because he was anti-war while you have been making wars at the drop of a bomb.

Who’s to say MLK would criticize your wars in Libya, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Iraq, and Yemen, right? And that’s just a half dozen countries out of 200, so what’s the big deal?

You’re only trying to be friendly as you expand the number of U.S. military bases abroad. We’ve only got 900.

As JFK’s Secretary of State Dean Rusk, once said, “While we are sleeping, two-thirds of the world are plotting to do us in.” Or as Billy the Kid warned: “I see many enemies around and mighty few friends.”

Billy the Kid - "Lot's of Enemies and Few Friends"

As for my disparaging you for assuming “king of the world” powers of life-and-death over all human beings on the planet, well, while that’s technically true, I know you are not the sort of guy to actually exercise those powers, even if misguided liberals do mock you as “President O’Bomber.”

The NBA is always advertising the good its players do in their communities and you’re a basketball player yourself, right?

I mean, indiscriminate killing is not something an NBA player would do, is it?

So, logically, you wouldn’t do it, either. Actually, I think that if you had the desire to play basketball professionally you obviously would have been a top star like Dwayne Wade or Kobe Bryant.

Am I right, bro’? You don’t mind if I call you bro’, do you?

In closing, I think you can take satisfaction knowing that you outperformed the Nixon regime, whose Henry Kissinger once said, “The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little bit longer.”

The fact is, after only three years in office you have inspired 300 million Americans to be on their very very best behavior, or else, no mean achievement.

Yours Truly, your friend, loyal supporter, Cheerleader-in-Chief, and soon-to-be-campaign contributor, Sherwood Ross P.S. May you have four more years! (And me, too.)

  1. Well done Stuart! I think Israel forced the blackmailed Obama to insist this legislation includes tossing American citizens into military prisons without any evidence of helping terrorists in order to put people in prison who suggest the next phony terrorist attack in the United States is a Mossad false flag. Perhaps a nuclear false flag. The United States of Israel. Oh my.

  2. With thousands of operators, a-teams, and patriots comming home the zionists can’t afford public trials. The first group of recon marines that finally have had enough and plan on doing something about it is the reason for the law. Imagine their case being public? Imagine 100 similar cases being public? The zionists would have damage control beyond repair and it would be over for them quickly. They’re scared, they know we all know, the important one’s anyways. They went balls deep on 9-11 and aren’t going to go quietly. They over bet, they aren’t bluffing, losing is death now, not a paycheck. Target lists just got longer for them. I wonder what the match will be to light it? Shitting on your rights 10 years ago wasn’t enough. Stealing all your money isn’t either. You get the government you deserve.

  3. What I’d like to know is , will you Americans walk up voluntarily to the doors of the delousing showers or will you do something ? What does it take to make you lot mad ? The Zionist false flag tricking you into WW1 didn’t do it , letting Japan attack Pearl Harbour didn’t do it , the Bay of Ton kin didn’t do it , the murder of 3000 of you on 9/11 didn’t do it , killing and dieing in Iraq and Afghanistan didn’t do it , watching your Constitution and Bill of Rights being put through the shredder didn’t do it , having one of your own shot in the head with a teargas canister didn’t do it and now you find they are building Million man prisons FOR YOU has only seen a few blogs posted . WTF ?

    • Judging from your writing, you’re Canadian or some other crown colony. I’d check your six before you preach to us. We’re on it, no worries mate. We’re mopping up your mess and shite once again.

      Israel, yours. Fractional reserve lending practices, yours. Slavery, yours. Kashmir, yours. WWI, yours. WWII, yours. India, yours. Nukes in Africa, yours. Boer wars, yours. Crimea, yours. Pakistan, yours. India, yours. Shall I continue? Boxer rebellion, 1812, American Revolution, Opium wars, War against the French, Spanish, Potugeuse, Dutch, N. Ireland, Scotland, W. Indies, plantation carribbean. Jamaica. Japanese gun boat diplomacy. Hong Kong.

      That’s all relatively recent, we can go on forever. We, and the rest of the world did appreciate the Balfour declaration, and destablizing Asia before you got your asses kicked out of there as well. Falklands, oh, clap clap there. You rivaled us on the Indian genocide in Canada, thanks. Maori are still in love with you. I’m sure the aboriginals in Australia can muster a whistle for you. Sheesh, we all loved the renaming of Rhodesia and the following slaughter. Namibia, after the germans left. Cecil Rhodes and on, and on. And you wonder? Incredible tumerity! Lest we forget the first truly global war which is the Seven Years’ War. We’re simply doing what the Roth’s want, only through your proxy via Tel Aviv. You can shove that Magna Carta where it don’t shine. Twit! You are the Death Star.

      • Well cowboy , I hope you do have a plan and don’t worry about my 6 , we’ve had yours through all your unjust wars . The Zionists have branded you all as Traitors to America and you WILL be the first ones rounded up for Sedition and locked up in Canada’s Million man prison . Every person who has Tweeted an anti American Government word is on their list , every person in a Militia as well . I hope your internal anger you display is of some use to the US when the time comes .

        Proud Aussie !

    There will NEVER be a “second Revolution” in America.

    White Americans are TOO STUPID (yet arrogant); TOO PAMPERED; TOO COWARDLY; TOO TIMID; TOO PASSIVE; TOO FAT; TOO SLOVENLY; TOO UNRIGHTEOUS (they have their own SIN GUILT and CANNOT cry out against the State’s SINS); TOO SELF-CENTERED; TOO CLUELESS; TOO DEPENDENT on the STATE to stage a revolution.

    (A hundred assorted kids outside of Wall Street and elsewhere with NO SPECIFIC AGENDA besides Soros’ socialism just doesn’t get it…)

    There is NOT a social infrastructure APART FROM OUR MILITARIZED, JEW-CONTROLLED State that could take on the US MILITARY made up of a GROWING number of blacks and latinos and UN troops who are just itching to harass, jail indefinitely without charges, and Kill, the STUPID and ARROGANT whites.

    The Senate just passed the JEW CARL LEVIN’s (head of Senate Armed Services Committee) S-1867 – National Defense Authorization Act that will give the militarized blacks and latinos the RIGHT to arrest the stupid whites.

    It’s all over.

    The White Identity Movement (mostly NEO-PAGAN & fiercely ANTI CHRISTIAN) is a LOST cause.

    This comes from a Jewish Rabbi , Not all Jews are Zionists .

  5. GoOd satire, see you in the FEMA camps.

    • I want the top bunk and I don’t want to be the Momma ! See you there .

      Have a good Xmas guy’s , things might be different next year ????

  6. Sherwood, this guy Obama is like Bush, only he knows how to talk. The walk is pretty much similar in terms of what you write about here. It would be naive of us to think that the President of the US has much independent power. He is like the Congress and much of the Court system. There are much bigger fish then the ones we see all the time on the Media Circus. Its like Virtual Reality. They are really propped up by systems behind the curtain that include some of the folks that are seemingly coming more into visibility thanks to some of the writers in VT.

  7. When will Americans wake up. Any law repugnant to the Constitution in null and void ab initio….That is, from the beginning….and this goes for most of the crap coming out of congress. We the People are the ultimate authority, NOT those lamebrains on the hill. All who voted for this horrendous bill have violated their oath of office and are no longer deserving of the office they hold.

  8. Well, he is entitled to his opinion,…Now, as this soldier said,the ex-CIA Director William Colby once said, “I have definitional problems with the word ‘violence.’ I don’t know what the word ‘violence’ means.” I say: “Welcome to the club, Bill Colby, we all don’t know what the word violence means,…until someone to blow up our head, with a baseball bat.”

  9. To support Veterans,….more than an obligation a moral question,…..

  10. Brilliant, Sherwood. Completely brilliant!
