Why did Barack Hussein Obama II choose yesterday, Monday June 30th, as the date to deliver his speech in Independence, Missouri? Wouldn’t July 4th have been more appropriate? What makes June 30th the day Obama chose?
Here are some interesting events, related to Black Liberation Theology, Socialism, Terrorism, Gay Pride, and other things that Obama is interested in, that all happened on June 30th:
1906 - The United States Congress passes the Meat Inspection Act and Pure Food and Drug Act. This was partly a response to the publication of Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle, an exposé of the Chicago meat packing industry.
1934 - The Night of the Long Knives, Adolf Hitler’s violent purge of his political rivals in Germany, takes place.
1935 - The Senegalese Socialist Party holds its first congress.
1960 - Congo gains independence from Belgium. This is the one I think is key…keep in mind that the “Black Liberation Theology” that Obama studied for 20+ years from his spiritual advisor Rev. Wright puts heavy emphasis on African Independence from “Eurocentrism”:
African-centered thought, unlike Eurocentrism, does not assume superiority and look at everyone else as being inferior.
1963 - Ciaculli massacre: A car bomb, intended for Mafia boss Salvatore Greco, kills seven police and military officers near Palermo.
1971 - Ohio ratifies the 26th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, lowering the voting age to 18, thereby putting the amendment into effect.
1986 - The U.S. Supreme Court rules that states could outlaw homosexual acts between consenting adults.
1997 - The United Kingdom transfers sovereignty over Hong Kong to the People’s Republic of China.
2005 - Spain legalizes same-sex marriage. (Hmm…Barack is celebrating “Pride Month”)
2007 - A car crashes into Glasgow International Airport in Scotland, believed to be a terrorist attack.
