Rachel Maddow, Your Attempt At Slander Failed

July 18, 2013 by

Hello, I’m Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. And I’m under massive attack by the mainstream media and Barack Obama’s defenders. (Oh right, I repeated myself). I must be doing something right. I must be scaring the Obama socialist cabal to death. I must be hitting a bulls-eye with my opinions.
This past week, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow tried to defame and slander me in a bizarre, rambling 15-minute diatribe on her national TV show. Fifteen minutes on national TV about me. Thank you, Rachel, that’s quite an honor coming from you.
Maddow even gave me a name, “birther.” It sounds similar to “murderer,” except it means only that I dared ask questions about Obama. Funny enough, none of those questions has ever involved his birth or birth certificate. Never. Not once. But hysterical defenders of Obama never let a fact get in the way of a good slander.
Rather than attacking a patriotic American, shouldn’t journalists like Maddow be asking questions of the President? Do the answers to the questions I asked scare her that much? Am I getting that close to the truth? Do I pose that much of a threat?
Perhaps there is a connection to the media’s refusal to ask these questions of our current President and the problems we’re experiencing:
  • An economy in decline.
  • No jobs.
  • Our own government now violating our rights at every turn.
  • It’s using the Internal Revenue Service to intimidate and punish us.
  • It’s using the Environmental Protection Agency to bankrupt the energy industry.
  • It’s using the National Security Agency to spy on us
  • And it’s using the Federal Reserve to bury our children in debt.
  • And it will perhaps soon use drones to kill us — without holding a trial or even hearing the charges.
Every patriotic American — and especially every legitimate journalist — has the responsibility to question the background, character and policies of the person who is the CEO of the world’s most powerful economy, the commander of the world’s most powerful military and the person with his finger on the nuclear button.
Yet if one American actually dares to ask questions about our President, suddenly all hell breaks loose. He gets called names. He is slimed and slandered.
I am that one courageous American. I have many questions about Obama’s background, actions and policies. I’m willing to boldly stand up in public and question and criticize the President. The result: First came vicious IRS attacks. Then, after I beat them again and again, next came the leftist national media attack. Someone is very worried about Wayne Allyn Root.
Saul Alinsky is one of Obama’s heroes and mentors. His book Rules for Radicals, is Obama’s bible, even though Alinsky’s masterpiece is dedicated to Lucifer, the devil. Funny, I’ve never heard the media mention that little fact.
Alinsky’s philosophy is to destroy and discredit any conservative who dares to question you by demonizing him. The strategy is to call him vile names and tell lies, because the end justifies the means. Humiliate and intimidate him so badly, the critic will hide under the covers, never to be seen again. In this case, Maddow’s goal is not only to destroy Wayne Allyn Root, but also to warn other conservatives that if they dare question the President, they too will get the same treatment. So stop asking questions!
My personal story is the achievement of the American dream. The son of a blue-collar butcher, I graduated from Columbia University (class of ’83 with my classmate Obama). Through discipline, sacrifice, personal responsibility, work ethic, enthusiasm for capitalism and a relentless attitude, I became a successful entrepreneur. This has allowed me to give more time to my passion: politics. I became the Vice Presidential nominee of the Libertarian Party, a media personality on FOX News and conservative talk radio, and the author of the national bestseller The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide. I am also the home-school dad of four beautiful children, including a daughter at Harvard and Oxford.
Because of all this success and my media megaphone, Obama’s defenders have me on their radar. I’ve got a bulls-eye on my back. I’m making a difference. And I’m obviously scaring powerful people on the left. In one rambling, raving diatribe on national TV, Maddow slimed me and reduced me to one curse word: “birther.” Let me repeat: I’ve never been a birther. Ever. Not once have I ever questioned any aspect of Obama’s birth or birth certificate.
Alinsky would be proud. This is how you destroy your political opposition, silence dissent and socialize America. This is how big government takes over a once-proud Nation of individuals.
Maddow isn’t alone. In the past few weeks, since I’ve asked critical questions and made common-sense predictions about Obama’s true agenda, Obama’s IRS scandal and the mysterious story of Obama’s years at Columbia University, I’ve come under withering attack from across the liberal media. Jon Stewart’s The Daily Show, Mother Jones magazine, liberal bloggers and now Maddow and MSNBC have made attacking Wayne Allyn Root a national pastime. The attacks intensified as The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide rose on the bestseller list. Coincidence?
Last month, even CNN host Piers Morgan tried to discredit me and bait me into a slugfest on CNN. At least he had the class to do it to my face. Give Morgan credit. Maddow, on the other hand, wouldn’t take the chance to debate me face to face. Rachel, why are you so afraid of the truth?
Maddow gave me so much airtime she might as well have named me “the most evil man in the world.” I’ve been in the TV and entertainment business my whole life. I know full well that no TV host would ever dedicate 15 minutes of a national TV show to one outspoken critic of the President. Not unless they are seriously worried. Not unless he’s hit a bulls-eye.
Maddow’s attack on me is certainly a show of desperation. I’m obviously getting too close to the truth. In the military they say, “You know you’ve reached the target when you start getting hit by flak.”
If I’m so unimportant, why is the liberal media so intent on destroying me? If my instincts about Obama’s scandals are so wrong, why are they so intent on discrediting me? If I’m just some kook, why would Maddow even pay attention to me? Why give me so much precious time on national TV? Does Maddow read PersonalLiberty.com? I didn’t know liberals cared so much what we said here.
But perhaps Maddow has spilled the beans. Perhaps this is a clue that I’m not so unimportant. Perhaps the left knows that I’ve stumbled onto the storyline that could destroy the Obama Presidency. Perhaps they’re afraid far too many Americans are reading about Obama’s purposeful plan to overwhelm the system and destroy capitalism that I unveiled in The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide.
Perhaps they are worried my story about the IRS scandal has legs. I was the first in the country to report a year ago that this IRS scandal is massive and involves the IRS going after individual critics of the President and top GOP donors.
Perhaps my gut instincts about how Obama might have committed fraud to gain entrance to Columbia University is striking chords. Something about Wayne Root has set off alarm bells among Obama’s defenders. They are sweating and panicking. They are desperate to discredit and destroy my reputation.
Rachel, methinks thou protests too much. Remember: I’m from Las Vegas and play a mean game of poker. You’ve tipped your hand. You’re playing with a pair of 2s, you know I’ve got a full house, and you and your liberal friends are obviously desperate to bluff me out of the game.
Newsflash: You failed.
You’ll be sad to know I played to full houses, standing room only, at both FreedomFest and the GOP Women’s Gala in Las Vegas this weekend. The GOP event had to turn guests away. And your slander helped raise thousands of dollars at this weekend’s GOP Women’s Gala. By the way, the highest bid of the event was for a private dinner at the home of Wayne Allyn Root. Sorry, Rachel: You lose.
I draw three conclusions:
  • There is a God.
  • Alinsky is rolling over in his grave.
  • Thank you, Rachel, from the bottom of my Republican conservative heart. You’re the gift that keeps on giving.
I’m Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. See you next week right back here. Same time, same place. God Bless America.

"My God!  How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy!"  ~ Thomas Jefferson

 
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am honored to be here tonight to share with you some of my thoughts on whether being an American has any meaning anymore.  As I look out over this audience, what is visible to me are men, women and children with different faces, different body sizes, different genders and different clothes.  What I cannot see are your strongly held beliefs, your daily habits, or how you get along with those around you, at home, at work, or at play.  I have no idea how well you did in school in your early years, how your parents treated you, who your friends were, who you were attracted to, what you liked to do, or who you liked or didn't like.   In fact, it is none of my business to know these things."
 
"However, human nature being what it is, I can make educated judgments about such things because I know a little bit about human nature, not as a psychologist or as a psychiatrist, but as an observant individual of average intellect, having lived for 75 years.  I can say with certainty that there has been some strife and adversity in your life.  You have had to meet challenges, either individually, or as a family, or as a group.  Much of that adversity comes because of your strongly held beliefs that aren't necessarily compatible with those you deal with on a daily basis.  We all know that siblings fight and we all know that parents get to be referees, or benevolent dictators, which ever works the best."
 
"We all know that husbands and wives fight over major things and more often, minor things.  After being married for 50 years, my wife still gets after me because I won't put my dirty dishes in the dishwasher.  I rinse them though."
 
"Human beings, like all creatures, are generally selfish.  They want what they want and they want to get what they want, no matter whom or what is in the way, because that describes being a living creature.   Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on your perspective, there are all kinds of things or people in your way.   This isn't rocket science.  It is generally known by just about everyone, either consciously, or intuitively.  Which leads me to my little black box theory."
 
"Several years ago and based on knowledge, experience and observations, I developed a theory about mental processes, biases and deep-seated beliefs of the general population.  I called this theory, the "Little Black Box" theory.  Some of you may have heard me talk or write about it before.  This theory applies across the board to almost everything we believe in and everything we do in our lives.  It is inescapable and what is in the "Little Black Box" determines, to a large degree, how our lives will turn out.  It determines our thoughts, religious beliefs, sexual proclivities, our fears, our strengths, our weaknesses, our successes or failures and even our political persuasions.  The content of the "Little Black Box" and thus a person's point of reference, begins to fill up at a very early age and the person is not aware, nor do they have any control of what is going into it, because it is determined by their early environment, along with a dash of their biological parent's genetics and how they are treated by their parents and the siblings with which they live."   
 
"People behave in direct proportion to the content of the "Little Black Box" and in most cases they are not aware that they are behaving in this manner.  To them it is perfectly normal.  In fact, what is in the "Little Black Box" defines who they are early on in their lives ..... that is, according to my "Little Black Box" theory.  Changes to the content of the "Little Black Box" rarely occur throughout a person's lifetime.  When they do occur, it is almost always the result of some revelation, a violent act or accident, overpowering new information, (true or false) or an epiphany."
 
"The theory is especially applicable to how people believe and act in the area of religious faith.  The same is true for political leanings and biases.  It is intuitive then to say that, if you are born into a Democrat family, you will most likely remain a Democrat for the rest of your life, without any regard to the substance of what is meant by being a Democrat.   It is equally true for Republicans, or independents.  I call it blind party affiliation by virtue of a person's early environment."
 
"If you are born into a poor family, you are likely to remain poor.  If you are born into a wealthy and privileged family, you are quite likely to follow the path of wealth and privilege.  There are many exceptions of course."
 
"For this reason, people are very selective about what they listen to, watch and read.  They virtually always listen to, watch and read about issues that are compatible and aligned with what is in their "Little Black Box".   They analyze everything they see, hear and read in the context of their "Little Black Box".  It is not a choice they make consciously.  It is pre-determined and pre-programmed for them long before the age of consent.  No matter how convincing an argument you make to another person, they will almost always yield to what is in their "Little Black Box" before all else, even if it defies principle, logic, reason and/or even common sense."
 
"At his point you are asking yourself, OK, what has this got to do with whether being an American has any meaning?  It has everything to do with it because it explains why we have differences.   In general, it explains why we as a country are so divided and why being an American takes a back seat to what divides us.  It is those very differences and divisions that are causing the problems we face in America today.  But it is equally true that if we are divided, those that govern us will also be divided.  A divided government is a recipe for disaster, as has been playing out before our very eyes over the last 50 years.  However, it is equally true that a united government could also lead to disaster if those that are united in government stray away from the principles of what makes us Americans."
 
"However, ladies and gentlemen, as I look out over this audience tonight it may not be readily apparent to everyone, but we do have one very important thing in common.  We are all Americans in spite of our divisions, at least I hope that everyone in this audience is an American.  We were born on free soil.  We are endowed with certain unalienable rights.  Some call those rights our gift from God.  Still others call them natural rights that inure to the benefit of all living creatures that government cannot take away.  We are all Americans and that does mean something.  Let that sink in for a minute."
 
"You did not create you.  In the beginning you had no control over the mechanisms that formed the shape of your body, the characteristics of your personality or your mind, or the capabilities that were granted to your body and mind by virtue of genetics and life with or without your parents.  But no matter what anyone tells you, you were not created to serve others, unless it is your choice to do so.  In fact, you were created to express who you are as an individual.  You were created to serve yourself and those you love, or care about, not by force but by free choice.  Anything else is tyranny."
 
"You are unique, a snowflake, one of a kind and no other person can be like you now, in the past, or in the future.  It is your individual uniqueness that is your value.  It is what you express or achieve as a person, that is your mark, your legacy and your reason for being here.  No other person, group of persons, or a government has the right to take that from you.  You are not a pawn you are sovereign under the supreme law of nature.  You are free to choose good or evil.  If you choose good over evil there will be rewards.  If however, you choose evil, there will be a price to pay."
 
"This great land called America is as unique as you are.   It is one of a kind, exceptional, a snowflake, when America is compared to other cultures or nations.  Its unique form of government allows individuals to fully express who they are.  Under our Constitutional Republic an individual can be just about anything they want to be, provided they have the necessary drive, the ambition and the work ethic.  A free America provides opportunities that can't be found in hardly any other country, even today."
 
"But because of our divisions we have taken our eyes off of the ball.  Instead of keeping our eyes on the lookout for our ever-present enemies, foreign or domestic, we fight amongst each other over the "spoils" of government and ignore the axiom that says a government left unto itself will morph into a dictatorship.  We are being conned and lied to by the current government for evil purposes, on a whole range of issues that have a direct affect on our freedom." 
 
"There is a story that is told often to prove some kind of a point that tells of a neighbor who has heard sounds of a heated argument in the house next door.  Afraid that bodily harm might come to one of the occupants, the neighbor calls the police.  Two squad cars pull up to the house of the warring spouses and four officers approach the front door.  All of a sudden two windows open up on the house and two guns are pointed at the officers.  One of the officers asks, 'Hey what's going on in there?'  One of the spouses responds with, 'Can't a husband and wife have a little fight now and then without the police poking their nose into our business?'"
 
"On September 11, 2001 a radical, foreign ideology violently poked its nose into America's business and 3,000 Americans died in the collapse of the Twin Towers in New York and the Pentagon in Washington DC.  Suddenly, united Americans were the ones poking the guns out the window at the enemy and we went to war in Iraq and Afghanistan.  For a few months after 9/11 we were Americans again, but alas, it didn't last."
 
"Today our real enemy does not confront us from foreign shores, although the threat lingers on the horizon.  Our real enemy is that which divides us and makes us cast aside the political foundation that preserves our liberty and protects our freedom.  "The Parallax Prophecies" predicts that if Americans do not set aside their differences and come together, America has no chance to continue as a free nation.  We will become like so many other third-world countries where the people are more interested in getting something for free from government, no matter who has to pay for it.  We will have let our government convince us that we are but helpless victims and need mother government to take care of us, instead of being proud, self-reliant, responsible, free and sovereign Americans.  And one thing is for sure.  If we are divided as a nation, we will not be able to effectively confront the determined foreign enemies that are approaching our shores from the East and from the West."
 
"It does mean something to be an American because in America, it is the natural, unalienable, God-given rights of the individual that sets us apart from all other nations on earth.  It is the combined power of individual Americans that have freed over a billion people from brutal dictators and despots.  It is the combined power of individual Americans that have created America's unprecedented military might.  It is the combined power of individual Americans that grow the food that feeds our nation and a good portion of the people in other countries.  It is the combined power of free and generous individual Americans that have opened their wallets and their hearts to the people of other nations who have suffered the indignities, the injuries, the disease and death from natural disasters around the world.  It is the combined power of individual Americans working alone or with others, that have created the highest standard of living anywhere on the planet.  It is the combined power of individual Americans that have developed the technologies and medical break throughs that have not only made our own lives healthier and easier, but have saved countless millions in developing countries.  It is the combined power of individual Americans that have created the greatest wealth the world has ever known and from that wealth we have been able to fund all of the great things that we do as free Americans and as a nation."
 
"America has nothing to apologize for and every American has every reason to be proud for being part of and contributing to the land of free individuals with unalienable rights and the home of the brave who put their lives on the line to preserve that freedom and those unalienable rights."
 
There are two kinds of people in America, those that want something from government and those that want to be left alone by government to live out their lives in freedom.  It is this difference that divides us.  Those with the most votes determine the direction of America, either for the benefit of a free America, or the establishment of an enslaved America.  If we are divided as a people and as a nation and will not unite on the principles that made us free, enslavement can be our only future."
 
"Yes, it does mean something to be an American, but it won't mean anything if we remain divided.
 
If we want to save America from destroying itself from within, we had better start thinking AS Americans and acting LIKE Americans.  Only then can we be victorious over the twin, corrupt evils of power and money, in the hands of men and women who have no honor, either foreign or domestic."
