Saw this recently and thought it was worth passing along for your consideration. What do you think?
AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA
By Lou Pritchett
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 Limbaughs, Hannitys, O’Relllys 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.

Note: Lou Pritchett is a former vice president of Procter & Gamble whose career at that company spanned 36 years before his retirement in 1989, and he is the author of the 1995 business book, Stop Paddling & Start Rocking the Boat.
Mr. Pritchett confirmed that he was indeed the author of the much-circulated “open letter.” “I did write the ‘you scare me’ letter. I sent it to the NY Times but they never acknowledged or published it. However, it hit the internet and according to the ‘experts’ has had over 500,000 hits.
I completely agree with Lou Pritchett. I think Obama is the worst president in the history of this country. No doubt he has ties with Muslim extremists that want to see our country go down.
What is really scary is the fact that so many people are so apathetic about the ever-increasing socialism, moral decay and fiscal insanity that have been growing like a cancer for many, many years. Obama is clearly hurting this country, but so did his recent predecessors. We’re like the proverbial boiling frog. The water is getting hotter, but it’s been too warm for a long time. Too many people just don’t realize how much liberty they are going to lose.
I have my questions about Obama, but come on – aren’t we getting tired of this skewed information?. 1. Both Barack Obama and wife Michelle paid for their educations via scholarships and student loans. Barack was able to pay off these loans with his best selling books. 2. Obama only lived outside the US for 4 of his formative years. The remainder of his entire life has been spent in the United States. And on and on….
Yes, there is a Snopes confirmation – but THINK people. They are only confirming that Pritchett wrote it. They and NOT confirming the content.
This misinformation is ridiculous. Think for YOURSELF . Pritchett obviously has a chip on his shoulder. So you should believe him because he said it? Research these things for yourself, or become one of the sheep that believes anything they read on the internet.
Wow. Kind of out of date response to an old article. By this time, Obama has already started well on his way to destroying our country with his power grabs, socialist agenda and liberal policies. But, hey, since you have proof of all of the above, that makes it all better.
Wow.
“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.” My response: Is that really your business to know? What’s wrong with having an “upscale” lifestyle anyway, does that really define who a person is?
“You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.” My reply: Do some freakin research.
“You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.” My reply: Read dj’s comment please. Know your facts.
“You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one.” My reply: There will never be a perfect health care system, no matter what president is in office. People have been complaining about the US health care system for years.
Your “letter” is opinionated and many people probably don’t care. Many people probably do, I don’t.
And if you’re so scared, go to church, better yet, move out of the country and live under someone else’s government. Hey, how about Iraq? I wonder what your letter would be about then. =)
~Not trying to be mean.~
I find it amazing how many people read this article and don’t bother to absorb the fact that I’m not the one who wrote the letter. Short on grey matter?
Slurp. Keep drinking the liberal Kool-aid, my friend.
As for research on Obama, I don’t have $3 million to pay attorneys to dig up what he has spent $3 million to hide: his school records, passport records, college papers, college application & loan records.
Let this one thought trickle into your mind: “Why?” Why would he go to such great lengths to cover up his records? Why is he determined to keep people from the truth?
I suspect it will all come out in the end. I hope sooner than later, before he bankrupts this country with the grand agenda of those who are running his show.
