As Jeff Emanuel points out in his February 9 Redstate.com piece,
"It doesn’t get much simpler or more clear-cut than this. During his campaign, President Obama promised that he “will not sign any non-emergency bill without giving the American public an opportunity to review and comment on the White House website for five days.”
The so-called “stimulus” bill was passed by the Senate just before midnight on Friday night (after Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-OH, arrived on the publicly-funded private jet Obama sent to fetch him from his mother’s funeral and cast the deciding vote for the package neither he nor a single other member of Congress has read).
President Obama, who has also not read the $787,000,000,000.00 borrow-and-spend bill, has announced that he will sign the debt legislation into law on Tuesday in Denver. [What, was he too busy going to Camp David, checking out the basketball court, going to Chicago for Valentine's Day, putting his picture up with George Washington and Abraham Lincoln in celebration of those great mens' birthdays, reading to children at an elementary school and making preparations to fly to DENVER to sign that turkey of a pork bill??]
The legislation was posted on WhiteHouse.Gov on Friday afternoon (at 2:05pm EST), but was not passed until that night. So, let’s count the days: Saturday-1. Sunday-2. Monday-3. Signing on Tuesday. That’s three days, not five.
Among other things, this little tidbit lay deep inside, crusted in its shell and working hard to recreate itself as a pearl for certain entities:
"Another unforgivable flaw is how the bill makes huge changes on major national policies without any significant debate. One provision guts the 1996 welfare reform law, which reduced caseloads by 70 percent. Instead, individuals will again be entitled to unlimited lifetime benefits without work requirements and, amazingly, states will have financial incentives to increase caseloads."One has only to read Jack Kelly's op-ed at Real Clear Politics to see what has really transpired here, and that, indeed the Pyrite's victory is Pyrrhic indeed.
And this, while the Obama/Soetoros whine that their job is too hard, the White House too confining [despite the in-house bowling alley, candy maker and Kobe beef cooking chef], and that they need more vacations. Almost before the ink was dry on the lease, off they trundled to Camp David, thanking all "the little people" for making it possible. I would urge you to read American Thinker's Lauri Regan on "The Audacity of the Obamas"-- it is clear that, for those who claimed not to know it before, we are in deep trouble with this bunch of usurpers, and just because main stream media has been coopted or drugged into not reporting it does not mean it's not a problem, which brings us to yet another front on this multifaceted nightmare.
As much as main stream media refuses to report it, the ineligibility issue is NOT going away. Once thought to be the purview of only Eastern Bloc countries and Banana Republics [the former set up, in fact, by American corporate interests like United Fruit], news suppression and propaganda have new firmly established themselves in the U.S. as the method by which usurpers, pretenders and big money interests attempt to control the people. However, the older models, from which arose Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and the later Cloward-Piven/Saul Alinsky games did not factor in technology, which has given us, among other things, the internet. It is indeed difficult to hoodwink and control a people if they have alternatives to msm disseminated information and access to communication and so, my friends, the news does continue to emerge despite the best efforts of Those Who Would Usurp. To wit, among others, one Lame Cherry entertains us with a wild but fact filled introduction of one Fredric D. Woocher, Esq. of Strumwasser & Woocher, as it is his firm which Barack Hussein Dunham, Obama, Soetero has contacted to spend even more money in attempting to obscure Mr. Obama's true identity by hiding his Occidental College records in California.
As Alan Keyes, a plaintiff in one of the myriad suits challenging Obama/Soetoro's eligibility and abrogation of the U.S. Constitution points out,
"Now Obama's lawyers have filed a motion to quash our effort to obtain the relevant documents (cf. Bob Unruh's WND article Sanctions sought in eligibility case.) I am told that it includes a demand that monetary penalties be assessed against me and the other plaintiffs in the suit. Though not unexpected, this motion confirms Obama's ruthless determination to destroy anyone who continues to seek the information the Constitution requires. Why should they demand penalties against citizens who are simply seeking the enforcement of the Supreme Law of the Land? It is simply because their persistence runs contrary to the will of a supposedly popular demagogue? This smacks of tyrannical arrogance. That Obama thus signals his intent to bring financial ruin on those who won't accept his cover-up of the circumstances of his birth is a tactical escalation. It confirms the common sense suspicion that he won't act forthrightly in this matter because he has something to hide.
"As one of the targets of this escalation, I need no more convincing proof of the ruthless disposition so far successfully masked by his empty rhetoric of hope and change. Obviously he means to offer hope only to those willing to surrender their most basic rights. To any who insist on questioning his actions, he offers the drastic change of ruin and destruction. So be it. We shall be among those who learn firsthand the meaning of the sacrifices made by the Founders of our free republic, as they pledged and gave up their lives, their fortunes and the world's esteem."
So, what is one to do in these times that so try [wo]men's souls? While we must each decide what our part is in our country's and Constitution's health, I leave you with some ultra, uber saliant words, shared with us from none other than the fearless and fact laden Logistics Monster:
And, last but most certainly not least, our brilliant founding father, Thomas Jefferson:To borrow a line from Glenn Beck; “You are the Protectors of Liberty”, which means you have a couple of questions to ask yourself.
- Am I a true patriot that believes in the principles laid down by the Constitution and the Founding Fathers, or am I a socialist sheep that would be running for South America if I were a Nazi SS officer?
- What, when, where, and how am I willing to protect these principles and liberties for myself, my family and future generations?
No answer required; it is just something you need to start thinking about and have clear answers for those questions. Also, you might want to think about looking beyond the immediate disenfranchisement problem.
“Scenes are now to take place as will open the eyes of credulity and of insanity itself, to the dangers of a paper medium abandoned to the discretion of avarice and of swindlers.” –Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, 1814.

Solar is going to see a real boom in the next few months. The stimulus plan that was just passed has a lot of funding dedicated to solar energy. Hopefull this saves us all money in the long run. Here is more information I found on the subject.

The internet only works for those individuals who really want to be informed and want to help make a difference. Those that are motivated in life and want the TRUTH!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the ones who really need this info are the ones who are couch potatoe zoombies absorbed with the doomsday media predictions, drinking kool-aid, asking for free handouts, while sitting at home using the internet for computer games! These people have no motivation other then to suck this country dry of the remaining life blood it has. Taking all the good honest hard working American's with ANY INTEGRITY down with them in their diseased and sickened state!
