The far left and members of the Socialist International and Progressives in the House and the Senate have a strategy as the mid-term elections loom before them. In an article at the following link, http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704293604575343262629361470.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEADTop John Fund, writing for the Wall Street Journal, spells it out succinctly, and here it is:
The strategy in a nutshell will be, “You’re throwing us out, but we are still in control for now, and we’re going to hit you back in a way that you will never be able to undo the damage. Oh, but it’s for your good, you know…”
The radicals and revolutionary progressives know that their days are numbered, and that the American electorate is on to Obama’s agenda, thanks to whistle blowers, and intrepid reporters and researchers who are reporting the news and not covering up and playing the White House’s spokespersons on the issues that matter and that will determine the future of this country for the next generation.
This is why they are planning to bring every pet project of theirs to a vote while they still hold super majorities in both houses (thanks to the reactive voting of the 2008 elections) before they are thrown out of the House and the Senate. They realize that though after November of this year, for the interim, they will be out of power temporarily, but they will continue behind the scenes while Obama is in the White House to continue all their efforts to get back in power, if not through congress, through the courts, and other means. Nothing is beyond them.
They are after all, revolutionaries. Not your revolutionaries as in the Founding Fathers, oh no, not by a long-shot. Our founding fathers believed in the right of free speech, to keep and bear arms, to religious liberty, to free markets, personal responsibility, accountability to the American electorate, free trade, and the separation of powers.
These revolutionaries believe only in the redistribution of wealth, the use of police powers in government to confiscate land and property without due process or compensation, stuffing the ballot box with false votes, packing the unions with tax payer money, and much much more according to the ideologies of Marx, Engels, Mao, and other Communist luminaries who have paved the landscape of death and destruction in history’s most repressive machines.
The radicals in both parties see that the American electorate has had it with them, and they know they’re on their way out, some for good, and they are planning to hit back with the full vengeance of their elective office while they still hold it. Remember that next time you hear a politician promise you that he or she will build you something, or give you something, because unless it is coming out of their own pockets, it will be coming out of yours.

TOP ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS IN SECRET MEETINGS WITH HAMAS LEADERS
Jewish Democrats, like a good many other Democrats who believe that the United States must following a course of strength and determination in the face of terror and tyranny, must understand that no everyone who come under the banner of the Democratic Party is good for the interests of this nation or its allies, particularly, Israel.
This has become painfully evident in the previous eighteen months, as the Barack Obama Administration is the first in this nation’s history to supply a foreign terrorist entity with over 900 million dollars in aid, specifically to Hamas.
Hamas has a history of terrorist acts against Israel, and it is incredible that this country, under any circumstances, would provide an organization that on a day to day basis shoots rockets into Israel’s population centers to kill innocent Israeli civilians, regardless who those civilians might be.
Rockets do not discriminate between Jew and Arab, and this is what Hamas has been doing since it took control of the Gaza Strip.
Yet, this administration has provided Hamas with almost a billion tax payer funded money which this terrorist organization has used in funding its terrorist war against the people of Israel.
When the President of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu visited the White House, Barack Obama excused himself from his presence, and went and had dinner by himself. Such a slight had never been made to a head of state before, and the act was not lost to those who follow US Middle East policy, particularly US policy towards Israel.
Many have already forgotten the statements made out of this White House last year that US Middle East policy would henceforth be one where Israeli interests no longer necessarily applied.
What’s more, people have also forgotten, what this writer and many others, including Sean Hannity and others warned about with regards to Obama’s pro-Muslim stance, specifically that Obama would abandon Israel and take a pro-active pro-Muslim stance at the cost of Israel’s interests and the interests of this country.
Now we are seeing senior high level administration officials requesting Hamas not to speak about their secret talks with them for fear that there will be a backlash from Jewish voters, “and other pressure groups in the US” as they put it. What is this all about? What are we seeing?
Well, as mentioned above, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh, and many others warned about Obama’s close associations with Rashid Khalidi, a pro-PLO radical professor, who mentored Obama on Middle East policy while he was a state senator in Illinois.
There were articles about this which this writer and a good many others cited, but they went on deaf ears. Nobody wanted to listen. Everybody was sick of George W. Bush, and they wanted “change.” They heard the rhetoric, were entranced by the deep melodic voice, and hypnotized right into the voting booth, giving the inexperienced pro-Muslim radical junior senator from Illinois the vote which propelled him into the White House and into the center of world power – the Oval Office. The rest is now history, and what a history it has been
Well, how are these voters now feeling about having contributed and given to a man such as Obama such power? Buyer’s remorse will not change the direction this country is headed, only making sure that such a man is not reelected, or elected again to any office, and that such men and women never get elected to public office again. To fail to do so will imperil this country, and its fragile alliances overseas, and bring upon US and our allies more terrorism, as our enemies sense weakness and vacillation, and as in cases such as where US Officials of this administration hold secret closed door meetings with terrorist groups such as Hamas, treason does not lie far behind. Beware.

TIER 5 UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSIONS: THE FORGOTTEN 99ERS ARE THROWN UNDER A BUS BY THIS CONGRESS
It appears that perhaps ironically the only solution for help for the long term unemployed – the 99ers – in getting their Tier 5 Unemployment Benefits enacted is not through congressional means but by Presidential Executive Order. There are currently 31 million unemployed professionals in America, with hundreds of thousands more being added every month to that number. Of these there are those – the 99ers – those whom have been unemployed for over six months to three years, unable to find work in this “jobless recovery,” many of whom have exhausted all of their benefits (regular, EUI Tier 1-4, and Federal EB), and have faced the last three months without a lifeline to help pay with their bills and buy food, or even keep a roof over their heads.
Congress is out of touch with Main Street. Several congressmen on both sides of the isle have charged the long term unemployed with being slothful and unwilling to find work. Insulated from this economy by six figure salaries, paid vacation, and benefits up the wazoo, they have lost touch with the hardworking common man and woman who live paycheck to paycheck, pay taxes these politicians don’t, and who now face the loss of wages for being laid off or downsized by corporations moving their business overseas to save on overhead in taxes and regulations overseas markets don’t face. Thanks a lot guys. You over-regulate business, hike taxes for everyone, and then force a health care reform bill down everybody’s throats which you know will incur costs on everyone they don’t need or want at this time, and then expect businesses to grow and jobs not go overseas.
Then after you get your vaunted health care reform bill, you throw every constituent you claimed to be for under the bus by ignoring their plight and claiming that now you are fiscally conservative and want to save the taxpayers’ money. Then you insult US by overlooking President Obama’s taking two billion of our tax dollars and investing it in an off-shore deep water drilling scheme for a Brazilian oil company for which George Soros has invested a large sum of his capital with, while placing a six month moratorium on off shore drilling here at home. That’s just great to know that you and the president “are on our side.” Right.
The Labor Department reported that the number of new claims for unemployment compensation jumped to 472,000 last week, the highest figure in several months. In the two and a half weeks since the 1st of June, when the last extension expired, some 903,000 workers have seen their benefits cut off. By June 26, that number will top 1.2 million. The vote was taken under Senate rules, not to pass the legislation itself, but to “waive budgetary discipline” and allow passage by a simple majority rather than 60 votes out of 100. The result was 45 in favor and 52 against, with three senators absent. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid had already abandoned an effort to adopt a cloture motion, closing debate, for lack of the necessary 60 votes. Three months ago a similar extension bill passed the Senate easily. This is an election year, and many in congress facing reelection are misreading the cries of average Americans, many of whom are involved with the T.E.A. Parties across the nation. The result is that a Democrat-controlled Congress that rushed through a $787 billion bailout of Wall Street in October 2008 in a matter of days, (much of which went to overseas private bank accounts of the nation’s most wealthy and connected persons) and authorized a further financial windfall to the banks and speculators five months later in the ARRA (Obama’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act), cannot bring itself to support even the smallest of subsistence for the unemployed workers who are the victims, not the perpetrators, of the current economic crisis the talking heads call a “jobless recovery.”
Our political leaders think that the calls for congress to rein in spending, to give the people a voice and a say by listening to them and not passing legislature to promote political agendas, include throwing the sick, the elderly, the unemployed, the long term unemployed, and the disabled under the bus. This includes liberal Democrats and Republicans as well as fiscal hawks within both parties. Again, these people do not know the mood of the American electorate. They have misread US. This is not what the T.E.A. Party is about. The American people want their government to cut spending, and stop hundreds of billions of tax dollars in foreign aid to questionable governments. This administration last year authorized almost a billion dollars to the terrorist HAMAS in Gaza, and is seeking hundreds of millions more this year. This while, there are thirty-one million Americans unemployed, and a congress unwilling to give them a life-line as they increase taxes on small businesses across the nation, and forcing them to add more to the rolls of the unemployed by laying more workers off in order to stay in business.
Oh, but the alphabet soup media and the virtual press on the Internet keep giving US the spin of all spins by telling US that we are in a recovery. Every other week, we hear or read stories written by “experts” who tell US that things are beginning to “Look up” even as more and more businesses close down, more and more people are laid off, and the stories of a looming depression around US, that we see, that we feel in our pockets, in shuttered businesses and empty lots all around US are seen more and more throughout areas that were once vibrant. There is something wrong with this picture. We are being told that things are beginning to get better, and they’re not. Everyone you talk to tells you the same story; things are not getting better, more and more people are losing their jobs, businesses are cutting back. And things like food and fuel, and goods and services costs more and more each day. You go to your local supermarket and this state of flux is all around you. One week the prices are at one level, a week later they’ve gone up. We’ve been told that times are getting better since the beginning of this year, but no matter how much they spin it, it’s not getting better and you and your neighbor know it.
It appears though that the media and the politicians do not. Remember the 1980s when Ronald Reagan was in his first term? We were coming out of a double digit inflationary Recession, and unemployment was just below ten per cent. Back then, the media were full of stories on unemployment, and everyone seemed obsessed by it. Every day they speculated whether it would spell the end of Ronald Reagan's presidency. On a daily basis we were spoon fed stories by the media – CBS, NBC, ABC, and the fledgling CNN on the rate of unemployment around the nation, and how unacceptable it was. Today we are seeing a tremendous difference between Washington's gut-level response to unemployment and the response back during the recession of 1983. Almost daily today we are being given skewed reports of how the economy is beginning to turn even though they are still bad, but not quite, because within these reports there are phrases which are placed in to provide the reader with the belief that even though things are bad and getting worse, these are but “hiccups” which are “slowing down the economic recovery” as though there were a recovery at all. There isn’t, and they know it, no matter how they spin it, they know they’re lying to you, and they know that you know it, but they don’t care, and neither do the politicians
Almost ten per cent unemployment was unacceptable back in 1983, why is it acceptable today? Why is the media giving this administration and this congress a pass this time around? The plight of the 99ers – those who have been unemployed more than six months, some as much as three years, is all but ignored by the alphabet soup media. It’s almost as though they do not exist. To the media the ten plus million 99ers are a non entity. The government doesn’t include them in their unemployment figures, so neither do they. And since this government has abandoned them, so has the media. The 99ers do not exist as far as this government and this media and this president is concerned. The shattered lives, the broken dreams, the loss of home, the destitution and hardship these people and many more is a forgotten statistic which is now discarded since these people have ceased to be. The media which were on top of such stories during Reagan’s first term is now silent under Obama’s. The obvious difference between the Reagan administration and today is the mainstream media -- they hated Reagan, whereas they will not criticize the Obama administration. Stories on employment have been incredibly few and far between, even skewed in many places. The Washington Times recently published a story titled, Unemployment Fell in 37 States, http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/jun/18/unemployment-falls-37-states-may/print/
. It’s as though the mass media and the “free” printed press in America have become an adjunct of this administration, dressing up the figures and spinning the news in order to put some lipstick and some perfume on this ugly stinking pig. But no matter how much they try to dress it up, it’s still an ugly, stinking pig.
.Regardless of how you and your neighbors feel, they politicians and the mass media believe that you can do precious little about it. Or so they think. All of the House and much of the Senate is up for reelection this year. This is where our strength lies. If they think that cutting off the unemployed and especially the long term unemployed – the 99ers – will placate angry Americans, they’re grossly mistaken. Fiscal conservatism has nothing to do with throwing needy Americans under the bus, it has more to do with wanting our elected representatives to stop profligate spending on unnecessary projects made with local machineries created to perpetuate political dynasties back home. It has to do with corruption, with runaway federal power, about the encroachment of an imperious presidency looming tyrannically over the futures of every American as it seeks to regulate, tax, impose its will, and exceed the limits the Constitution has placed on it. This is what it’s all about, and not about disregarding our needy here at home.
The fact remains that the poor, destitute, elderly, and infirmed, and yes, the long term unemployed; must not be political pawns for self-serving politicians to use in order to get their spending bills passed, and once passed, thrown under the bus as inconveniences for those who claimed previously to support their cause. This is the hard lesson which everyone needs to learn and learn well. Government cannot be trusted, and big government swallows those it considers inconveniences.________________________________________

THE BROWN PELICAN
What explains the inexplicable behavior of this president in the face of multiple crisis? They’re trumped by Obama’s insatiable need to be popular, and his party’s obsession with politics. No party campaigns like the Democratic Party, and no machinery can hold the level of money and organization for political activism as the DNC. This has been evident since the days of Bill and Hillary Clinton, who by the nineties had established a far reaching network of support unlike any before it. Unfortunately for Mrs. Clinton, the one which Barack Obama and his well monied elite benefactors dwarfed even what the Clintons were able to muster. Even some long time Clinton supporters like Governor Bill Richardson defected to Obama’s side at the end of the Democratic Primaries.
Thus the compelling motivation for Obama to campaign in the face of crisis. Rather than being the statesman that he promised he would be, he has made it quite evident that he is nothing but another Chicago Democrat Machinery Politician with no executive, business, foreign policy, or diplomatic experience to handle the responsibilities his office of Chief Executive demands of him. He barely had just begun his service as a US Senator when he launched his campaign for president, and because campaigning took all of the time he had left to serve in the Senate, he went into the White House with little or no experience for the office he was about to hold. We are seeing the evidence of that, regardless of the public relations campaign his administration and party allies feverishly make on his behalf every day. There is no question, Barack Hussein Obama is one of the finest public speakers to hold elected office, perhaps bested by the great and beloved President Ronald Reagan, but his ability to read speeches written for him on a teleprompter is not evidence of leadership, nor does it translate into effective government. Being able to speak well does not mean the same person is able to lead and manage. That comes with experience, and an ability to bring around oneself knowledgeable and experienced professionals whose counsel and leadership abilities can be put into action in implementing the president’s policies properly.
But when such people do not possess these abilities, but who like the president, are placed in such key and sensitive positions via the same kind of political machinery we see at play in various cities and states throughout the nation - are appointed to these positions by the president on the basis of their political allegiance and ideological proclivities, people whom have never owned a business, have never worked a day in their lives, with no affinity with the common man, and whose claim to fame to is run political campaigns, then what we have is the current fiasco in Washington, where we get more of the same as we did in the Clinton White House – where everything is a focus group, every day is a spin on the days events, every visit by the president is a photo opportunity, and every activity is a political campaign and public relations event tailored by the White House for use by a pliable media committed to present the president and his entourage in the most favorable light even in the face of more and more iconic incompetence.
The only word that can be used to describe the manner in which President Barack Obama has behaved during what is has turned out to be the most disastrous man-made disaster on the environment in history is astonishing, simply astonishing!
There are clear, safe, and natural solutions to resolve the current crisis, but they’re not being implemented by this White House, or by British Petroleum. The reason? Environmentalists. They hold the power over this administration and they call the shots over decisions made by them with regards to industry and the environment. They do not want these solutions to be put in place because it would resolve this disaster within days, and put an end to its destruction of the fragile eco-system of four states bordering the spill.
They are so trapped in their ideological political game of putting an end to the fossil fuels industry in this country that they are willing to destroy the environment to do it. How this administration has handled this crisis and the course it has chosen is part of a well planned tactic in using this crisis to bring a policy they’ve been wanting to implement for some time into place – the end of American off-shore drilling, or drilling period, just as they’re trying to bankrupt the coal industry through Cap and Trade, a high tax on the coal powered companies that supply the nation’s heating and electrical services – in short the very companies responsible for providing US with electricity and gas that power our electrical appliances and heat our homes and businesses. Obama made this clear in an interview he gave several years ago
Some blame ineptness, others say it is by design in order to regulate and nationalize the oil industry the way Auto Industry was nationalized, and Healthcare was nationalized; but whether it is a lack of leadership, dirty politics, incompetence, or by design; our natural resources, tourist and fishing industries and towns along the shores of the Gulf of Mexico should never be made the political pawns of any politician.
Now if only the politicians and technocrats would get out of the way and allow free enterprise to handle the situation, there would be a boon on the local economy, a boon on the businesses involved in the cleanup, and our fragile eco-system and beaches would be spared the disaster that doing nothing but blame, investigate, and prosecute for forty days has done in accomplishing absolutely nothing in resolving this disaster.
Thus the compelling motivation for Obama to campaign in the face of crisis. Rather than being the statesman that he promised he would be, he has made it quite evident that he is nothing but another Chicago Democrat Machinery Politician with no executive, business, foreign policy, or diplomatic experience to handle the responsibilities his office of Chief Executive demands of him. He barely had just begun his service as a US Senator when he launched his campaign for president, and because campaigning took all of the time he had left to serve in the Senate, he went into the White House with little or no experience for the office he was about to hold.

There is no question, Barack Hussein Obama is one of the finest public speakers to hold elected office, perhaps bested by the great and beloved President Ronald Reagan, but his ability to read speeches written for him on a teleprompter is not evidence of leadership, nor does it translate into effective government. Being able to speak well does not mean the same person is able to lead and manage. That comes with experience, and an ability to bring around oneself knowledgeable and experienced professionals whose counsel and leadership abilities can be put into action in implementing the president’s policies properly.
But when such people do not possess these abilities, but who like the president, are placed in such key and sensitive positions via the same kind of political machinery we see at play in various cities and states throughout the nation - are appointed to these positions by the president on the basis of their political allegiance and ideological proclivities, people whom have never owned a business, have never worked a day in their lives, with no affinity with the common man, and whose claim to fame to is run political campaigns, then what we have is the current fiasco in Washington, where we get more of the same as we did in the Clinton White House – where everything is a focus group, every day is a spin on the days events, every visit by the president is a photo opportunity, and every activity is a political campaign and public relations event tailored by the White House for use by a pliable media committed to present the president and his entourage in the most favorable light even in the face of more and more iconic incompetence.
The only word that can be used to describe the manner in which President Barack Obama has behaved during what is has turned out to be the most disastrous man-made disaster on the environment in history is astonishing, simply astonishing!
There are clear, safe, and natural solutions to resolve the current crisis, but they’re not being implemented by this White House, or by British Petroleum. The reason? Environmentalists. They hold the power over this administration and they call the shots over decisions made by them with regards to industry and the environment. They do not want these solutions to be put in place because it would resolve this disaster within days, and put an end to its destruction of the fragile eco-system of four states bordering the spill.
They are so trapped in their ideological political game of putting an end to the fossil fuels industry in this country that they are willing to destroy the environment to do it. How this administration has handled this crisis and the course it has chosen is part of a well planned tactic in using this crisis to bring a policy they’ve been wanting to implement for some time into place – the end of American off-shore drilling, or drilling period, just as they’re trying to bankrupt the coal industry through Cap and Trade, a high tax on the coal powered companies that supply the nation’s heating and electrical services – in short the very companies responsible for providing US with electricity and gas that power our electrical appliances and heat our homes and businesses. Obama made this clear in an interview he gave several years ago
Some blame ineptness, others say it is by design in order to regulate and nationalize the oil industry the way Auto Industry was nationalized, and Healthcare was nationalized; but whether it is a lack of leadership, dirty politics, incompetence, or by design; our natural resources, tourist and fishing industries and towns along the shores of the Gulf of Mexico should never be made the political pawns of any politician.
Now if only the politicians and technocrats would get out of the way and allow free enterprise to handle the situation, there would be a boon on the local economy, a boon on the businesses involved in the cleanup, and our fragile eco-system and beaches would be spared the disaster that doing nothing but blame, investigate, and prosecute for forty days has done in accomplishing absolutely nothing in resolving this disaster.

SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT FAILED POLICIES TOWARDS CUBA
There was a time when I believed in the embargo against Castro’s Cuba. I even believed that efforts by the US to broadcast into Cuba was both a noble cause and a necessity, given the iron grip on information the Communist dictatorship on the island has over its population. But as I continued to examine these efforts at blunting the Castro tyranny through the years, I realized that as noble and well meaning as these efforts were, they produced little or nothing by way of influence on the island, and was just a vast tax payer funded boondoggle which enriched those who were involved in these projects, while the plight of Cubans on that imprisoned island worsened with each passing year.
The vaunted embargo was nothing of the sort, as American corporations and businesses of all sorts used second and third parties in Canada, Mexico, and Europe to conduct business with the Communist regime and rake in millions of untaxed revenue for themselves – remember it is a criminal offense to directly conduct business with Cuba under the “embargo” so much of the business conducted is “off the radar.” This so-called embargo enriched unscrupulous Capitalists in this country – some of them Cuban Americans – while giving the Castro regime legitimacy in its claim to the Cuban people and the so-called “non-aligned” Third World countries that the embargo was the cause of the poverty on the island and not the failed socio-economic policies of the Castro brothers and their sycophants running their multi-decade long machinery of oppression.
It took a lot for me to come to this conclusion, and did not come easy, but it has come for me and for many other sons and daughters of those who fled the island fifty years ago.
The answer to Cuba’s woes lies when those conducting the affairs of that government decide for themselves that change must come in order for Cuba to progress, and with that change an opening up of commerce and ideas that will usher in an age prosperity such as only those who lived prior to the Castro Era can scarce remember existed a lifetime ago, and for which they dreamed would someday return to their beloved island.
When such change takes place, if it ever will, many of those Cuban Americans – sons and daughters of the first and second generation of exiles whom have made the United States their home – who have prospered and are able to aid in Cuba’s restoration; will need to step up and help their brethren on the island. But they will have to temper that enthusiasm with an altruistic desire to help and not to take over, since Cuba belongs to the Cuban people, and it is the Cuban people on that island who have lived and suffered through the worst privations who deserve to keep and enjoy the first fruits of their labor as they breath for the first time the first breath of fresh air they have ever breathed in their lives. Distrust, recriminations, vengeance, hatreds, and suspicion will have to be abandoned and make way for forgiveness, healing, honesty; in order for true reconciliation to take place and bear fruit in the new Cuba.
The Cuban of the island will then be able to take the hand of the Cuban-American of the United States and join together to start Cuba on its journey to its destiny.

OBAMA'S JUDICIAL NOMINEE REFLECTS A NEW WORLD ORDER
Call it a New International Order, or a New World Order; both are part of the same rhetoric and the same mindset that has beset Republican and Democrat politicians in the White House for quite some time, with the exception of President Reagan who was a staunch believer in American Exceptionalism – a firm conviction that the United States of America has a unique role given to it by Divine Providence which it must keep, and that in order to fulfill this role and preserve the delicate balance of liberty and prosperity while keeping the peace, it is incumbent upon itself that it preserve also its independence and not get entangled in the affairs of foreign governments, especially where such entanglements require that it give up parts of its sovereignty, much less its complete sovereignty.
Successive American presidents from both political parties have saddled the nation’s interests with those of other nations, interests which have worked to erode this nation’s independence, making it interdependent with nations that do not necessarily have this nation’s interests at heart. As if this weren’t bad enough, these globalist politicians whose oath to our Constitution has proven meaningless, continue with multilateral negotiations with the globalist heads of other nations in search of ways and means to bringing about a New World Order. And they mean to keep it.
Thus we heard on the heels of military victory over Iraq at the end of Operation Desert Storm, President George H.W. Bush, once a head of the secretive Council On Foreign Relations, and a member of the Trilateral Commission, telling US that America and the world were embarking on an era which would usher in a “New World Order.” His successor, William Jefferson Clinton, perhaps one of the most corrupt presidents this nation has ever had in office; also continued to lay the foundations for this New World Order, as did his successor during his second term in office, George W. Bush.
And now we see the current occupant of the White House, Barack Hussein Obama, himself boldly tell the graduating Class of 2010 at West Point that he seeks the establishment of a New International Order, and to that end he is doing all that he can to bring it about before the end of his first term, since at least at this writing it is questionable whether or not he will serve a second term, though things have a way of changing for politicians with time, and Obama is no exception to this rule, so don’t count him out yet.
But, it is interesting that while former presidents who were members of the secretive Council on Foreign Relations, and or the Trilateral Commission; both globalist organizations committed to the continued establishment of policies and treaties which erode American sovereignty and strengthen international ties along economic and political lines; only in the last twenty years have they become confident in their enterprises to speak of their endeavors publicly. This indicates that they are so far along and believe that society is so permeated with like-minded individuals now in places of power and influence across the broad strata of culture and commerce, religion and ideas, education and information; that can boldly speak of what was once unspeakable in public, the New World Order, or as Barack Obama calls it, a New International Order.
There is enough going on in the world of cross-national commerce, diplomacy, science, finance, and every other enterprise that there is no need to look for conspiracies under every bed; it’s here, and it is moving at an incredible pace. Evidence of it is the Global Warming/Climate Change being promoted not just by environmentalists, but by captains of industry, politicians, film stars, educators, and almost all of the giants of the technology industry, including Exxon-Mobile, PSE&G, Michigan Power and Light, Consolidated Edison, and educational channels such as the Discovery Channel and A&E. They’ve tipped their hand, because it would have been more credible of them if they had presented those who support and those who oppose the claims of the Global Warming/Climate Change crowd; but instead they’ve all decided to climb on to Al Gore’s bandwagon and take a stake in the coming multi-trillion dollar international tax and regulate scam which governments – including this one under the current president – will force down the throats of their electorates and constituents, just as congress followed the lead of this president and rammed a two thousand page health care bill down the collective throats of a nation without knowing what was in it, and with the knowledge that it would bankrupt it once and for all time when it takes affect some four years from its passage. They don’t have to worry about backlash, you see, many of them have opted not to run for reelection, and have chosen a nice retirement for themselves. They won’t be affected by it since they and this president and successive presidents will be exempt from it. Only the American people will be affected by this law; a law that congress would not place on itself. But the law will serve the New International World Order because it will effectively impoverish American industry and small and medium businesses, not to mention raise the costs of health care beyond anything that the free market would have accomplished had the law not been passed.
The point that must be taken is that America is on the brink of change its people did not anticipate when fifty-two per cent of those who voted in 2008 for “change,” rejecting – or so they thought at the time – “four more years of George Bush.” Whether true or not, and arguments can be made that President Bush’s second term in office did not offer much differences with regards to rogue states like North Korea, Syria, Libya, Iran and its nuclear program, bilateral relations with a resurgent and imperialist Russia, the limited war being fought in Afghanistan against a resurgent and resupplied (Iran) Taliban, and the bailout of Wall Street at Main Street’s expense, and waste and fraud in government spending at levels never before seen in the history of this nation.
But, sensing the deep desire of the American electorate for real and substantive change in the way that Washington does its work, the end of all corruption in high places, the end of sweat hear deals, cronyism, payoffs, favoritism, control of key committees by any one party, and the excrement throwing destructive political climate the Clintons had brought to Washington and made a staple there and across much of the country; the end to all of these was the change that the American electorate wanted, and sought in Barack Obama, but it is not the change they got.
They did not know, nor were they going to listen to anyone warning them of Obama’s radical Marxist past; his associations with the most militant and radical elements of our society; his lifelong involvement in Communist front groups and projects, the Communist power brokers and machine politicians who helped catapult him onto the national stage; his own statements in interviews made long before he was known, where he promotes Marxist ideas and thinking with regards to the Supreme Court, and our Constitution; his intent to bankrupt the coal industry and every energy provider through Cap and Trade; his desire to establish socialized medicine via universal coverage – what has come to be known as healthcare reform, or ObamaCare. All of these very troublesome details about his life were ignored by those who wanted change, and were spiked by the alphabet soup media that sold out to him almost at the onset.
OBAMA SEEKS A NEW INTERNATIONAL ORDER
Who needs conspiracy theories when everything is out in the open?
"U.S. President Barack Obama told West Point's graduating class Saturday the country must play a leading role in building international alliances.
"The international order we seek is one that can resolve the challenges of our times," Obama said, including countering violent extremism and insurgency, stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and securing nuclear materials, preventing conflict, helping poor countries feed themselves and care for their sick and fighting global warming.
"If we are successful in these tasks, that will lessen conflicts around the world," the president told about 20,000 people at the academy, on the Hudson River north of New York City. "It will be supportive of our efforts by our military to secure our country. We must pursue a strategy of national renewal and global leadership."
And now we see another of Obama’s choices for the Supreme Court whose radical credentials are beyond reproach, if you are a radical looking for a like-minded fellow radical to fill the soon to become vacant seat of Justice John Paul Stevens. In order to underscore just what Obama’s intent is with regards to his change that you can believe in, one must go back to an interview he had years ago where he made the following statements:
"If you look at the victories and failures of the civil-rights movement and its litigation strategy in the court, I think where it succeeded was to invest formal rights in previously dispossessed peoples, so that now I would have the right to vote. I would now be able to sit at the lunch counter and order; as long as I could pay for it I'd be OK.
"But, the Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in the society. To that extent, as radical as I think people try to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn't that radical. It didn't break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution, at least as it's been interpreted, and [the] Warren Court interpreted in the same way, that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. Says what the states can't do to you. Says what the federal government can't do to you, but it doesn't say what the federal government or state government must do on your behalf, and that hasn't shifted – and one of the, I think, the tragedies of the civil-rights movement was because the civil-rights movement became so court-focused I think there was a tendency to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalitions of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that."
How does this serve the New World Order? Any change that erodes the national Constitution, and the Constitutions of our fifty states, whether small or great, whether by legislation, litigation, or executive order; undermines the very sovereignty of this representative republic, and lays the groundwork for the end of the United States of America as we have come to know it, and worst yet, as our Founders envisioned it to be when they established its laws and bylaws.________________________________________

UNDER G-D AND INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY & JUSTICE FOR ALL
When man attempts to establish his own version of righteousness, his endeavors – as well meaning and pious at it may seem – is destined to fail, because the righteousness of G-d is not predicated on human effort or human trial and error. The righteousness of G-d stands by itself and is imputed to those who place their trusts in G-d’s complete work of redemption through His Messiah. Anything that deviates from this is itself in denial of the most basic tenets which form part of the faith in those who place their trusts in the provision G-d has made on their behalf in the Messiah.
When the Protestant Reformation discovered this truth, it revolutionized Europe, and launched key reforms in Christianity, but not only Christianity, these reforms also affected Judaism, and help launch the great spiritual migrations to the new world and the colonies of North America. The very laws of this nation were founded upon the most cherished tenets of Judaism and Christianity, and from these the rule of law emerged to become the very cornerstone of our republic.
We have fallen from these lofty heights, because when everything has been said and done, we have allowed through apathy and ignorance the dissolution of our religious heritage by committed secularists within our ranks who have ingeniously have parsed words and used carefully selected arguments to remove G-d and His commandments; indeed, all religious symbols and celebrations from our national culture, and have successfully struck the mention of G-d from our textbooks, replacing Him with Darwinian Evolution, and secular humanism.
In our apathy we have become complacent and compromising. We have sat back in our security and remained quiescent as our children were raised for US by our increasingly Anti-Judeo-Christian public school system, as secular humanists and atheist instructors have taught our children a world view alien to our most fundamental and cherished beliefs. Is it any wonder then, when this generation has produced the most narcissistic, amoral, and self-centered people? If those whom we elect to public office are a reflection of ourselves, then we are a very sick people.
The remedy is a national repentance which goes beyond a public show of contriteness, but one which penetrates the individual; one which is of the heart, one which transforms the person and challenges the nation to be better, to do better, to realign its priorities, and see its mission in a whole new light. It is what Abraham Lincoln termed a “New Birth of Freedom.” In order for the nation to change, its people must change. Only a tyrant believes that change comes from the barrel of a gun. Whether the tyranny is Fascism or Communism; it is not government which is the Guarantor of freedom, but the rule of law, especially when those laws are predicated upon the Judeo-Christian precepts; precepts which have uniquely defined the United States of America as a nation under G-d, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
