The Notion

Take the Obama Conspiracy-Theory Challenge!

posted by Leslie Savan on 09/10/2009 @ 11:13am

Now that President Obama's speech to school kids has proved not to be the Maoist indoctrination tool that the right absolutely knew it would be, it's time for the rest of us to start facing down the next big, media-fanned psychokiller fantasy. But what will it be?

It beggars the imagination: As Condi Rice said about planes deliberately crashing into the World Trade Center, who could have imagined that the president of the United States would be attacked for telling kids to stay in school and believe in themselves? Or that he'd be accused of wanting to euthanize America's grannies, or of being born in Kenya, which would, after all, make his presidency illegal?

It takes a lively paranoia, a financial stake, and/or a belief that a black man has no right to order white folks around to come up with such outlandish fabrications. But if any of you can tap your inner John Bircher, please share your crazed thoughts: What will be the right's next big Obama conspiracy theory?

That the government plans to tattoo the presidential seal on the soles of the feet of all gun-owning Christians? That Obama supported the switch from analog to digital TV because government scientists had placed interlocutor rays in every conversion box that would darken white people's skin (and don't Republicans have proof of this in John Boehner, who's been used as a guinea pig in these diabolical experiments)? Or might it be that the failure to maintain a balanced diet will become a felony, punishable by forced labor on the construction of a massive food pyramid somewhere in central Illinois?

Surely you can top that. Send your predictions here, to Comments. Then, when the mainstream media "reports" on just such a "controversy," you, instead of WorldNetDaily.com or the RNC, will be on the record for making it up first!

  4. How about this.....

    Obama is so desperate to get a healthcare, er, health insurance reform bill, he's cutting backroom deals to:

    1) Initiate TORT REFORM,

    2) Force Rangel out,

    3) Abandon CapandDie until after 2010 Elections,

    4) Cancel unfunded portions of the Pork Bill....

    Scary, huh, Libs?

  5. Good creative post Ms. Savan. First, it will be something the fake-liberal commentators will relay in the same form, 'if you can believe it, X neocon is accusing Obama of ____'.

    In fact with a couple mouse clicks you can find good old Brian Williams and all the rest of them doing this with the list, from racist, to Muslim, to birther, to death panelist, to school kid indoctrinator.

  8. Huh? I thought we were all marxists?

    I was waiting excitedly for all the indignation, even after all the racist, tea partying, fundamentalist drivel leading up to this point. Tsunami!

    Remember 'fellow' americans... the true answer lies somewhere in between.

    You called me a name! No, you called me a name FIRST! No, it was you! I just called you what you are! I looked up the name in the dictionary... it has two definitions! I meant the other one! The one about the pot, or the one about the kettle? You're not making any sense! YOU didn't make sense first!

    1. I've said before, I don't hate anyone. I disagree with someone's beliefs, but I've never hated anyone.

    2. While I certainly admit and maintain that this late 20th, early 21st century form of European liberalism adopted by the left is evidence of a mental disease or at least a cognitive disability, I don't believe that most leftists are engaged in kook conspiracy theories.

    Ms Savan on the other hand takes the attitude shared by some of our resident bloggers that all conservatives share in the dumbest conspiracy theories that float out there.

  19. A little off topic here, but I just heard Sarcozy will begin taxing businesses and individuals in France for using fuels that create excess carbons.

    The man is an idiot. Fortunately for the world France doesn't matter so much anymore. Two things will happen here:

    The company's will reduce production to avoid the tax, or leave, thereby creating a reduction in the wealth and economic health of the country as a whole, OR

    Everyone will simply pay the tax and absorb the costs and increases in their bills, and continue on, in which case NOTHING will be achieved towards reducing global warming.

    A better idea would be to, oh I dunno, FIND ANOTHER SOURCE OF FUEL FIRST! Where's the damn innovation? As one entreprenurial type said here once, "The Internet didn't take off because the Government initiated a tax on typewriters." Sad thing is, after his country collapses from his foolishness, Sarcozy will probably come to us looking for a loan. That is, if we havn't gone stupid by then too. ct

  22. Obama stated that he instructed the Secretary of Health to investigate and experiment with cases of controlling malpractice suites in several states. He directly referenced the Republican side of the house. This was a blatant attack on Republican ideals with the obvious goal being to infiltrate the groups attempting to organize demonstration projects in order to identify them for political cleansing. He stated this will target individual states, and earlier mentioned Alabama as an individual state. It is clear that his orders to attack Republican health care reform activists will focus on the Bible Belt of this great nation under God. Once these good Christians, working for proper, godly health reform, have been eradicated, there will be nothing standing in the path of his communist agenda. The identified conservatives will most likely be placed on a list to be reviewed by Obama's government death panels. This will allow the socialist Obama administration to reduce the older white population and political leadership in the south to eventually establish a regional fiefdom for leftist Islamic African American extremists, bent on the fascist totalitarian subjugation of the descendants of white, Protestant America.

  31. Why doesn't reform/change start at home, first? Would it be possible, if the electorial process (in your own backyard) was reformed/changed, then healthcare reform/change might not be such a major undertaking? I'm just a working stiff (neither poor, nor rich), but firmly believe that this great country can't be all that bad (even before change), considering all the immigrants residing here! That, in itself, should gauge this country's worth! Also, after reveiwing www.opensecrets.org, hard to believe that the controversial reform to healthcare will actually come to term, regardless of the next 'conspiracy theory', since the health professional industry was the sixth top political contributor, and what was the number one political contributor, yep, lawyers/law firms. Can ya 'bite' the hand that brought ya to the dance? I doubt it. Conspiracy theory, or not, it's the guy in the middle that will be asked to bend over, when it's all said and done.

  36. Next republican theory: Ted Kennedy asked Pres. Obama to bring back the swine flu virus on his trip to Europe last summer in order to infect Americans, especially Republicans. The goal is to scare everyone into passing their public option health care plan. Pres. Obama brought back two forms of the virus. Pres. Obama will give the deadliest one to anyone who doesn't vote or support his and Kennedy's health care reform. That is the best I can do... I think one has to be as crazy as these birthers, deathers, socialism phobes etc to really answer this question. Thanks.

  39. The Left and especially readers of The Nation are the very heart and sole of paranoid conspiracy country. Half of you guys here still think the CIA and Mossad staged 9/11. You still believe that Oswald was framed and Ruby was a govt plant, and that the Israelis kill Palestinian kids for body parts.

    For you to shudder in amazement and contempt at some screwballs who distrust everything Obama does, is riduculous.

    And it is not as if Obama is such a tower of virtue and incapable of low and devious moves. He made Jeremiah Wright his mentor and spiritual guide, sat in his pews for 20 years. When Hillary's video's showed that this family friend for most of his adult life hated whitey, America and Jews and adored Farrakhan, Obama claimed astonishment and outrage.

    And just last week he pretended never to really have known the views of a man he crowned a czar and had quartered in his West Wing. When it turned out this racist and Marxist produced and even appeard on rap albums that pretty much picked up where Wright's video stopped Obama pulled the covers over his face and was deep asleep.

    ...except, "Chip," that they continue to beat the pants off us in two important, nay vital, measures: live expectancy and infant mortality.

    And innovations in green technology won't be far behind. The French, after all, believe in investing public money in this stuff. Much more so than US-Americans, who believe that kind of thing is a communist plot.

    The Germans also believe in public investments in green technology. As we speak, they're drawing up plans to build solar panels in the Sahara. Even though we have the entire arid Southwest in our own backyard, the Germans, who have to negotiate with North African monarchs, may be the first to realize the full potential of solar energy.

  70. This is a great response to the right-wingnuts!

    But unfortunately, you just can't out-crazy these people. Really, you can't.

    check out http://www.obamadeception.net/ to see what is being said. A bank of the world with its own army? nation-wide enslavement in prison camps?

    I know - we like to think that we could figure out how they think these things up, so we could respond more effectively. But there are some really frightening levels of hatred and delusion out there that we cannot wrap our minds around.

    At least I can't see how anyone could be any more detached from reality or more outrageous than this.

  74. Here's my favorite...

    Michelle got a "make work" BS job at a university hospital holding a poorly defined job description, accomplishing nothing anybody can remember for $150,000 a year. Then, when her husband was elected a U.S. Senator, she was inexplicably given a raise to $350,000 a year. Clearly an important job, given that a surgeon MIGHT make that much at the hospital. Then when she leaves to move to Washington, the hospital decides not to fill that vitally needed $350,000-a-year position with a replacement.

    The conspiracy being that it was obviously a way to funnel cash to the couple with a veneer of legitimacy. And nobody in the mainstream press will ever ask them about it in public.

  77. OBAMA PLOT: Its not for nothing that his name scrambles so easily with Osama Bin Laden. He has used this acrostic fact in secret rites which he performs to psych up for the fulfillment of his prime plot, which is to sink the American military in the vast quicksand landscape of Afghanistan. We neo-birthers, getting nowhere with our denunciation of his birth credentials, now have stumbled on the real secret truth. He is in league with covert Al Qaeda agents to entrap our country in Central Asia, with unlimited commitments to consume American military and financial assets there. At the appropriate time, a signal will be given to capture and unleash Pakistan's nuclear arsenal in a way which brings both Russia and China into a 3rd world war fray, thereby preparing for an invasion of the North American land mass by hordes of Russian and Chinese troops led by, guess whom? Covert Chechenyan Islamists (for the Russians) and Uyghur Islamists (for the Chinese).

    If that last part seems improbable, it isn't. We all know how devious and untrustworthy those ex-commie Ruskies and Chinamen are. They don't hesitate to sacrifice lives for their own ends, and because their soldiers take orders unquestioningly, it will only be after suffering vast casualties at the hands of our noble patriots defending their wives and children those troops will turn against their dupe commanders. We Americans will get to slaughter the invaders, and the invaders will turn on the Islamists. Two birds with one stone. And then, we'll deal with our own traitors, namely, the so-called President and his advisors and flunkies.

    Of course, all of this projected bloodshed could be avoided by simply heading it off at the coral gate.

    Down with President Obama Bin Laden (as in loaded with Guilt). Let us now pray!!!!

    Actually, the Germans are already behind us in our current projects We actually have larger solar projects in Nevada, California, Arizona, and Texas.

    the Sempra Solar energy plant near Boulder City which is currently the 4th largest is expanding it's current capacity and next year will be larger than Germany's.

    But the real monster facilities are in construction in Arizona and California. These are 5-7 times the size of the German project.

    All the US projects are scheduled to be operational by 2010 and 2011.

  97. The road to serfdom has been well planned by the coatless plotters in the Oval Office.

    It begins with the imposition of the Satanically inspired metric system and the abrogation of our Biblically based English weights and measures.

    Don't believe me?

    Here are the chilling facts.

    Long ago our Founding Fathers (after writing the Second Amendment) took steps to protect America from the scourge of the metric system by passing the Alien Act to keep out pesky Jacobins. You will recall with an appropriate level of horror I trust how they killed God's representative on Earth Louis XVI and then tried to eliminate Christianity in France.

    Once the metric system is imposed, mandatory wife swapping and Bible dancing will follow. Or perhaps Bible swapping and dancing with one's wife - that bit is admittedly unclear.

    With that chip, Satan and the Government will be able to force good Americans to do their bidding. (I'd note that of course when a Democrat is in the White House there is no distinction between the two).

    And when some faceless bureaucrat in Washington like Hubert Humphrey or Walter Mondale decides that you've become a burden to society, he'll merely push a button and the Chip will terminate your brain functions.

    Then good Americans' bodies will be turned into Soylent Green to feed illegal aliens (of both the Lou Dobbs and Scully/Mulder kind).

It is obvious that a real Black man could not be as intelligent and well read as he is, so we can only conclude that he is a satanic figure in a Black disguise. How else could a Black man have been elected president in America except through a massively evil spell that pulled the hood over all our eyes.

    Then, he will call on the FBI, CIA and NIS to do random listening in on US citizens phone and electronic communications. No warrants will be needed.

    then, he will call on multiple Us agencies to deport those that have "relationships" with any group that MAY be linked to terrorism. (Except those groups linked to US born terrorists)

  133. I think the point is to keep generating the conspiracy theories as fast as they fall... in order to keep us dubious about conspiracy theories in general. Seems there are still some 'fans' of the last administration that feel the need to cover some tracks... and distractions like this are double serving to a complacent populace...

    Funny that... Obama is ten times more legitimate in the office of POTUS than the last one (what was his name again?)... and yet... against their own best interest, these right wingers can't even acknowledge that Obama is far more likely than 'what's his name' to enable a truly conservative agenda... one that includes civil liberties, constitutionality, and a prosperous business orientation... one that puts economic concerns up front and on the table...

    Got to hand it to Obama though... cause he is sticking with the right far longer than most of us ever would... in seemingly stolid belief that they really do have important insights to bring to the table...

    ...and... it's like they are standing in the middle of the room... with everybody's eyes on them... with their fingers in their ears... shouting "No we don't, Mr. President""

    I think Obama is right to keep hanging in there for them... while he gradually instills the proper respect that the left-center has been denied for so long.

    Slow and steady wins the race...;^)

  140. 1. Obama wants to open up trade and normalize relations with Raul Castro so that gobs of Cubans can migrate to Florida and make it a solid Democrat victory in future elections.

    2. Obama is really fighting the war against the Taliban because he wants control of the opium fields, to support an alliance with organized crime to sell heroin and get campaign donations from them.

    3. Obama's mother, as part of her humanitarian aid to Indonesians, taught up-and-coming Muslim terrorists how to set up cottage industries that build roadside bombs.

Since one of the contributors to higher health costs is a limited number of physicians, HR 3200 addresses this by forming a partnership between Acorn and the Gay and Lesbian Medical Association to train nurse practitioners to perform late term abortions. This will be done at one of the secret internment camps set up by AmeriCorps and practice will be done on pregnant blue whales.

  142. In the spirit of bipartisanship, the administration has set up at the 9-12 event scheduled for today in Washington a series of flat screen tv's projecting Jim DeMint's picture on them. In the middle of the screen, where DeMint's big mouth is, there is a hole. The enamored, enlightened audience is invited to French kiss the likeness of DeMint. When someone does, a lethal charge of electricity passes from the tongue, through the roof of the mouth, and directly into the brain.

    Viola.

    ~Proof that we would have to spend a very minimal amount of time looking if this was true. It's not and it makes no sense. But, empty vessels do make the most noise~

    antisocialist - Liberals don't "hate" America or our fellow Americans. You need to flip that! Conservatives "hate" (insert whatever).

    Liberals can and do put up with - lies, small-minded garbage (in the worst ways), sick behavior, a total lack of respect for the CIC & our troops, laughable ignorance, etc. from conservatives that really do "hate"........far longer than you ever could.

    If you keep drinking your "negativity poison", it will catch up with you. The people you think about every day because you "hate" what they believe in are not your problem and they don't suffer from your grudges. You are your problem and you suffer.

    And by the way, your answer about why you are still here made no sense. So, if the articles and comments bother you, ask yourself why you're still here because spewing hate is not a service to your country or your fellow Americans. Try something positive!

  153. Obama and his science advisers are at work on a top secret project to resurrect Hitler and make him commander of the US armed forces. Martial law will be declared in every part of the country except Massachussetts and Boulder Colorado (New White House location), and all non White Sox fans will be sent to re education camps. Earth Wind and Fire will be played 24/7 on every radio station. Only NPR will be allowed to continue normal programming.

    Soon after re animating Hitler, the Obama cabinet will clone Genghis Khan from an ancient DNA sample, in order that the president might become romantically involved with the former Mongol warlord. School children will be required to watch these love making sessions via webcam every morning before home room.

  154. As testimony to his communist leanings, our President Obama has worked out an arrangement with Russian Federation President, Dmitry Medvedev, by which we get the loan of Lenin's embalmed body. The body will be on display in the rotunda of the Capitol where it will be cooled by refrigeration equipment run only on natural gas piped in from Venezuela. Once cooled, the glass case will support a selection of cold cuts, vegetables, olives and other pickled items in what is being billed as a Communist Antipasto.

They will say that the president is a double agent and reporting his devious plan for America to Osama Bin Laden. The small-minded conservative fringes will assert this by pointing out that he is a muslim, Kenyan, socialist, radical, black man.

    Their disrespect toward President Obama should be called for what it is. RACISM.

    The birthers, tea party fools, limba, and fixed news are only comfortable with people that look like them. The Republicans are a bunch of dinosaurs stuck in the past of a shameful America.

I think there is an underlying method to their madness! Anger with out accountability is increasing and becoming more the norm. This makes it all the more possible for President Obama to be either killed or injured..by a "racist"...but it will be condoned and planned by a "Cheney-esq" group.

  160. As an actual socialist who finds accusations of Obama's socialist tendencies to be laughable, it's possible to pin anything on him. And it's quite clear that our President wakes up in the morning thinking up new ways to take away our freedoms.

    (1) He's going to fluoridate the water. (2) He's going to require that car tires be made from rubber. (3) He will force, by government regulation, airline passengers to have their tray-tables stowed in the upright position for takeoff and landing. (4) Obama is sending government agents to require people to pay money to enter Federally-owned parklands. (5) Cereal makers will have to display the contents of the box under the penalty of law in Obama-world.

    This list is endless.

Well, I've heard that his ultimate goal in passing health care is to bankrupt the American government, so that he can sell it off to his home country of Kenya, who will be the only ones who will still WANT it by that time.

  163. I remember Waco when they started playing the irritating music that everyone had to suffer along with the heat, the tension, and everyone was loaded to the teeth with weapons. I thought to myself, "this is certainly a recipe for bloodshed and probably death too." That was hardly wisdom. It was pretty obvious.

    Now we're watching Fox Fake News slowly but surely turn into our own Rwanda Radio. We have front row seats. It's another recipe for bloodshed and this time, no doubt someone's deaths, probably many in the future. Another no brainer.

    I hate to feel helpless so I almost never do. But I do these days. I damn sure do. Fox is a lot bigger than Waco.

They will probably be returned straight away by intelligent alien races as quickly as a good parent returns a lead lined children's toy. But it's worth a shot, eh?

  166. It's already being whispered that Obama is preparing special 'camps' for political dissidents who don't agree with his agenda. No doubt, these dissidents will be snatched up by Obama's agents and transported to the camps in black helicopters. Once there, the patriotic dissident will be subjected to brainwashing and indoctrinated to the liberal agenda before they are released back into society. Those that refuse indoctrination, well, let's just say that they will be seen again.
