    AN OPEN LETTER TO
    PRESIDENT OBAMA


    Dear President Obama:

    You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike
    any of the others, you truly scare me.

    You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.


    You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive
    Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no
    visible signs of support.

    You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth
    growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

    You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

    You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus
    don't understand it at its core.

    You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.

    You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned
    yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to
    publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail..

    You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America '
    crowd and deliver this message abroad.

    You scare me because you want to change America to a European style
    country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

    You scare me because you want to replace our health care system
    with a government controlled one.

    You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly
    capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.

    You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose
    that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of
    living in the world.

    You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics
    against certain banks and corporations.

    You scare me because your own political party shrinks from
    challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

    You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider
    opposing points of view from intelligent people.

    You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both
    omnipotent and omniscient.

    You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything
    you do.

    You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the
    Limbaugh's, Hannitys, O'Reillys and Becks who offer opposing,
    conservative points of view.

    You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

    Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will
    probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

    Lou Pritchett

    This letter was sent to the NY Times but they never acknowledged it.
    Big surprise. Since it hit the internet, however, it has had over
    500,000 hits. Keep it going. All that is necessary for evil to succeed
    is that good men do nothing.. It's happening right now.*
