Mexican citizens are not allowed to carry guns, and we can see how well that has worked out. Thousands killed by those that ,as criminals, do carry, as decent citizens can do nothing. All this anti-gun liberals should be made to move to “gun free Mexico’.
Tatersalad, thanks for the link. I printed it out. obozo doesn’t want law-abiding American citizens to have guns. So, he and his tyrannical government can kill us when they want to. I don’t want obozo as president or hitlery as Secretary of State. Or, the rest of his criminal czars and cabinet. Of course, these criminals in our government don’t want law-abiding Americans to have guns, Criminals prefer unarmed victims. But, obozo, you’re not gonna disarm us. You’re not gonna take the gun out of my hands. The only way you’re gonna do it is out of my dead hands. I’ll take a few of you with me. See website: http://www.haasstrep68.com page 4 for the history of treason and how, if you wnat to, you can help remove obozo from office/from the ballot.
Obviously, this guy knows HIS OWN limitations.
Maybe we ought to put him in a straight jacket, too, for his own sake!
I am simply amazed that America hired a new President in 2008, and although America was running low on fuel, so to speak, but we were still running on the fumes, now although America has plenty of Gas, our President has just decided to stop. So, here we are again, John Lott comes out and told the world that, then Senator Obama, tells him that he doesn’t think that people should be able to own guns, I think that’s kind of Hallarious, because I don’t think he should have been President, like a lot of people, but he is. I t is just shamful of our President, that he just can’t be honest with the American People, those HE chose to be President of. You would think that he could at least be honest, let’s say, every once in a while? It’s amazing that he doesn’t know how, he seems to say one thing then does the oppisite of what he said, so I guess that whenevere we hear speak on any subject matter, just think oppisite of what he is saying, then America will know what the truth is, everytime. We have a little over 100 day’s and the democrats are running scared, we have just got to know, that as long as we all tell the truth about The President, and what he has done to America, then I believe that, we can win this election. I also believe that the President has hurt himself by lying all the time. I guess he believe’s that coming up with as many lies that he can come up with, he will win, I don’t think that is the case. I believe that the more he lies, sooner or later those that have chose to believe him, will eventually see right thru him, he will eventually beat himself.
Your trouble is, you don’t understand that O’bwana and his minority-based movement do not want the same things Americans do. Socialist policies don’t have unintended economic consequences — socialists want to destroy the private-sector economy. Every business that fails and every private-sector worker fired is a big ‘plus’ for them. His followers all know he’s telling the lies he has to tell to get 50% plus one votes. Do you think one Leftist actually thought Alger Hiss was innocent? No way. They thought that spying for the Soviets was a good thing; not deserving of punishment, but for public consumption, the truth had to be translated into NewSpeak. But forget all that. Any society where the highest-and-best-use for a lady like Laura Ingraham is political punditry is in a sorry, sorry state.
Obama is not our President. He is a usurper. You cannot win a race if you aren’t eligible to enter it, and with a foreign father and teenage mother, he is not Constitutionally eligible for that office.
But Barry is just like a pea in a pod. Our biggest worry is the congress that let it happen. That can only mean they are in the “takeover” process.
By what law does congress have special medical benefits and retirement program. They are just other common citizens, nothing special… unless you ask them.
You’re Right, the Democrats were once the common Man’s party, and it has been bought out by Big Corporate Money, exactly the same as the Republican Party who are the people that own the Big Corporate Money. It’s like batting a ping-pong ball back and forth but we have bigger problems than that. We watched Congress, both House and Senate, sit back while a Kenya was elected as USA President. Even bigger of a problem was that it was brought before the courts and the Federal Judges agreed that Mr. Obama could run on the Democratic Ticket. People, that is all three branches of our Government that combined on this and it didn’t matter if he was Democrat or Republican either, and neither did it matter that he wasn’t an American. That all combined places our Military and Police and Intelligence Services under the control of the same group that has gained control of all three branches of our Government. We, the American People have lost control of our country and it was bought in dollars without a shot fired other than the ones fired by police keeping the commoner in line. Many people say it is the World Trade Organization and World Bank, but it is the Rich Men of all this World that have combined their efforts. I am pro-gun and pro-Freedom and Pro-Capitalism, but Rich Capitalists have bought the system and there is little anyone can do about it but sing sour Grapes. That combining of efforts is what toppled Communism, not Ronald Reagan or the US Intel Services and those combined efforts have made China change into the world’s production center because of cheap labor, and we think we have it bad. I’m glad I’m not Chinese living in the New Chinese Version of Communism. I am an Old Man with Severe Heart Disease and Crippling Spinal Degeration, so I won’t ever live to see what George Bush 41 called the New World Order, but I am sorry for you who will have to live under it. You can see some of it coming about under Mayor Bloomberg in NYC already. These are Well Educated Men of Higher than Average IQ and they have apparently already read Frank Kitson’s Book on Low Intensity Operations and built on past it to a World Class Operation. Russia, China and the USA are all already On Board, although Chancellor Merkel appears to be trying to Drop Anchor after living under Erick Honecker in East Germany. She is just lucky that her efforts happened to fit right in at a time when Walls were weakening between those Men of Means that are now Combining Efforts even more effectively. Gun Control is just one of many issues to be faced in the near future as Money takes control and builds a Power Base. You know the old saying, the love of Money is the Root of All Evil and Johnny Cash’s Song, “It’s Going By The Book”. SOOO, What to Do about It? Anything you write up or try and the New World Order will simply recalibrate their efforts accordingly, remember they own the Police, Remember the VolksPolizei and Stasi? Well, these new Guys have a million times the money at their disposal and have proven that Everyone has his Price, Well, except for the Pope. Pope Benedictum XVI had to work for the first guys that tried a New World Order on a smaller scale and with far less funding, but then he managed to find release from that Service and began to work for the Real Leader. Yes, I Believe in God and I am sure He is sitting up there shaking his head in disgust, and therein lies your answer to the entire problem, but there is no such thing as a Rapture of the Church. We all have to Die eventually, Jesus had to Die on the Cross to calibrate every single thing in this World for a final True and Just Judgement Day and this generation believes it is going to cheat the Evil One and Death? No, that won’t happen, but there will be a Great Persecution of all who Believe and have Faith and a Great Persecution of the Church. All Men would have to become just as incorruptable as Christ’s Vicor on Earth to make a difference, otherwise we all March Onward toward the New World Order, which seeks to end religion by the way. Catholic, Protestant, Jew and Muslim all pray to the same God, the God of Abraham as originally known. It is time those with Faith come together in a common Mass. So Argue about your Leader if you wish, it will make no difference. Obama and Romney both work for the same Powers and both will carry the American Nation in the same direction, Ping-Pong. You are the Ping-Pong Ball. It is only when the Ball flys off the table that the game halts. It is the skill of the players that determine that and really the Chinese are good at Ping-Pong. Take a look at whose nation is being built up at a trumendous rate with funds from all the players while we argue. I wish I had an audio track of the Panzerlied by Groschel -Wiehle to play while you read this, and the skill to get it to work.
Only Liberals shouldn’t be able to own guns. They’re not responsible enough to own guns because “liberalism” is a mental disease and if they’re mentally disabled, that would prohibit them from purchasing or owning weapons.
Not to speak of the fact how many lefties have murdered millions.
I THINK THERE ARE REAL BIG TARGETS ON THE HEADS OF OBAMA, HILLARY, HOLDER, BUSH SENIOR, BUSH JUNIOR AND BILL CLINTON. I HOPE AMERICA IS A GOOD AIM ! THEY WILL GET WHAT THEY HAVE COMING TO THEM.
Unfortunately, Liberal Nazis don’t want guns, their weapon of choice historically speaking, has always been the ultimate weapon always preferred by Cowards & Terrorist; they love to use BOMBS and Genocide to rid themselves of all they hold in disdain.

Start Studying your Rights! When you do NOT know your Rights, you do not have any
Get guns out of criminal hands in Chicago, then we’ll talk about it.
despicable lier that BO is, I wish him to be in a hostage situation with no way to defend himself. Does he and the leftists think they will never need protection? Yeah, he/they do ! This is what America has sunk to; all our rights destroyed, abominable ! How did we let this happen?
Emma , how did we let this happen ? Most people in this country don’t even know how our government runs , and as such , people like Hussein can come out of the woods , and lie like the Devil himself , people will eat it up . They believe what he says , without even checking the facts . Do you think people of today , where it’s ” gimme , gimme ” , from their own parents , will check out what our government is saying ? No , they think they are too busy to look up what they are told . And , if my parents like them , then I do too . And , it doesn’t only be the Democrats either .
I dont believe people should have to endure a president thats not a Natural Born Citizen, he is NOT the offspring of TWO US Citizens, under “Happersett v. Minor” an 1875 US Supreme Court ruled “parents” had to be US Citizens,,,…obamas father was never a US Citizen and never applied to become one……why is he still in office again?
This President Obama?, needs not to be concerned about guns as the second Amendment to the United States Constitution has it in The Bill of Rights for the American citizens. American citizens live and die for the Constitution of the United States of America since our founding fathers placed it as the law of the land ! This President?, needs to read and comprehend the American Constitution!
Obama and his ilk are ignorant of the second amendment’s purpose, or just plane stupid or they care nothing about the freedoms of our country and would prefer to see it deteriorate into a leftist tyrannical and totalitarian state ——– take your pick!
Patriot:
They are neither ignorant nor stupid. They are marxist ideologues who want to destroy America and they know they cannot have a free hand to do all they want as long as We the People have a right to keep and bear arms. So you are correct that want to “fundamentally transform” America into a totalitarian state which THEY can rule without fear of resistance.
Ovomit, your out of content,you have been back tracking since you were born,i,d say it was probably something your daddy taught you,but you don,t even know who he is for sure. 99.9% of what he has ever said he has had to take back,sorry no sympathy from this guy you looser,the only people he apologizes to are his muslim brotherhood,he,s such an a$$.
We know damn well why he would rather people not have guns,because he know there are a lot of rounds out there with his name on them, in my opinion.Why is he still in office? no one person can come up with a reasonable explanation(george soro,s,jim abrhams,michael moore and one who claims to be his stepfather b.ayer,s i believe they would be a good place to start,but either wise he is a puppet or read somewhere a pinnochio,anyway we need to disgrace this fool come election time.
This colonial British illegal fool, working under ‘natural cover’ “Barack spear Chuka Harrison donkey Obama” must take big ‘ol America as ‘quaint’ little Britain, which operates without a written Constitution and has a “no gun” policy for ordinary folks. “Barry” if you want little “eccentric” England, you go and live there. I’m sure they’ll welcome you back “home”!
From Plato’s book:
“Won’t he smile in welcome at anyone he meets, saying that he’s no tyrant, making all sorts of promises both in public and in private, freeing the people from debt, redistributing land to them, his followers, and pretending to be gracious and gentle to all?”
However after a series of unpopular actions, including stirring up a war, the leader begins to alienate some of his most ardent advisers who begin to voice their misgivings in private. Following a purge of these advisors the tyrant attracts some of the worst elements of the state to help him rule.
As the citizens grow weary of his tenure the tyrant chooses to attract foreigners to resupply his dwindling bodyguards. The citizens finally decide they’ve had enough and begin to discuss rebellion.
At this point in the story the student asks his teacher incredulously: “What do you mean? Will the tyrant dare to use violence against [the people] imprison or to hit [them] if [they] don’t obey? The teacher answers,
“Yes – once he’s taken away [the people's] weapons.”
The name of book 8 in the 10 book series from Plato Is THE REPUBLIC
Obama, NO ONE gives a DAMN what YOU think of the 2nd. Amendment but, you did sware to uphold our Constitution with NO execptions.
Your job is to do the bidding of WE THE PEOPLE, NOT you the destroyer. Start packing your bags dude, you have one foot in Chicago and one foot on a banana peal in the White Hose. Rest assured, WE THE PEOPLE will gladly give you that little extra encouragement this November so don’t try to box up the silverware or gold bathroom fixtures, just pack up your junk and call “PODS” ASAP.
The NRA has already informed you in a very clear manner “AMERICANS WILL NOT GIVE UP THEIR GUNS”. I stronglu urge you to listen this time and pay damned close attention to the message being delivered to you and you UN ‘targets’.
I think all ObummaMites should turn their guns.Take it one step further,all demoratis congress persons should not be allowed to have armed guards. Give them water balloon to toss.
Did Obama miss the lesson on the Constitution of the United States? Oh, I forgot, he doesn’t believe in that document. Didn’t his have to swear to uphold the laws and the Constitution of the United States? Oh, maybe he forgot that too. He is really quick to support muslim countries with our tax dollars but not support the US. He is really an evil person. He has been placed in his position by the muslim countries, liberals and anyone promoting “free stuff” (meaning tax payer money. Doesn’t he get it! Tax payers are running out of money, they don’t have it anymore. That’s okay with the muslim in charge, because he has amassed billions of our tax dollars and can live anywhere in the world after he destroys America….
Must have missed that chapter on the 2 amendent while”a Professor of Consitutional Law”,seems funny I’ve only seen or heard from one man claiming to have been a Student in his class?If I had the president as a professor you’d think more peole would be bragging about it!Makes one wonder if maybe the photos were staged?After all the Democrats are now trying to introduce a bill to bury his pass?No school records ?At least we know about Bush 2 C’s at Yale ,but have never seen any of O’s from Occidental ,Harvard or Columbia or any other students and Profs coming forward,other than that one Brietbart clip with the Racist Proffesor,and that was’nt a classroom setting just Barry being a community agitator? Where are all these people who should be on the boob tube bragging about going school with the president?I personal knew one of Us Senator and two Gov. one from each party and most of the people resenting me in the State House! Just seems very strange that so few have come forward!
There’s no proof he went to any school, anywhere, in the world. Why? Because he had his past sealed. He probably wasn’t all that smart on top of being an illegal alien.
Obama doesn’t think the American legal citizens should have guns. He doesn’t need a gun, he has body guards and secret services surrounding him and his family. He won’t legalize marijuana, even though the vets have begged him to, but it is ok that he did it and probably still does, same exact way with cigarettes. The hard left liberals want to tell us how to live our own life’s , while they do as they please. We are suppose to live differently than he does , and the hard left liberals . They honestly think they are above everyone else. I CAN’T STAND HIM OR HIS THUG FRIENDS !!!!
To liberals who are always whining “if you don’t like abortions, don’t have one”, or, “if you don’t like homosexual marriage, don’t marry a homosexual”, I say if you don’t like guns, don’t buy one! Hey, Barry! It’s none of your effin’ business whether or not I own a gun.
Gee,He thinks he’s smarter than the founders, or is there something smelly afoot?After all one of the main problems a dictator has is a armed public that also has the right to vote and if a tyrant rises to remove by force those who would enslave or rob us of our God given right to self defense>Here are a few of Barry’s fellow gun control advocates ,Hitler ,Mao,Stalin,Castro,Pol Pot,Several Middeastern Dictators ,Africian Dictators,Not counting our South American Friends like Venezuela, notice a pattern ?
700,000 licensed hunters in Kentucky. 450,000 licensed hunters in W. Va. 600,000 licensed hunters in Tennessee. At least another 500,000 each in Pa., Ga., S.C., N.C., Fla., and you have the biggest army in the world. Even bigger than the Red Chinese Army. And this isn’t even one-quarter of the states. Any wonder why Obama and the left-wing socialist-Marxists want to disarm us?
Well just F—Obama. Give him a bullet
With Obama in office the devil Muslims are coming out of the closet. Time to hit them all
Start properly punishing the people who intentionally killing people with guns,with the DEATH PENALTY and leave us law abiding citizens alone. It’s the liberals in the aclu that fought to abolish the death penalty so now they are trying to take our guns so they have the upper hand and can steal from us and do what ever they want at our expense. Well all I can say to obama and all those liberal dogs out there is give it your best shot and just try and take our guns. Just make sure you bring alot of body bags. GOOD LUCK!
A staged assassination attempt?I have been saying this very thing for months now and lots of folks think I’m crazy but he will try anything to stay in the WH.Joe Angione is a former columnist for The Villages Daily Sun. Click Joe Angioneto email Joe.
An Obama rumor that must never become reality….
A good journalist is usually taught not to print rumors or at least never to present them as the truth
What I’m going to report here is only a rumor that presently can’t be confirmed. But it is of such magnitude that it must be made known if only to prepare America for a possible terrible eventuality. And while it has not been confirmed, neither can it authoritatively and convincingly be denied, certainly not in a United States where our Constitutional rights are under constant attack.
This rumor involves an agent of the Department of Homeland Security who allegedly informed a reporter at the Canada Free Press of a “false flag” or faked event to be initiated by Obama administration operatives in the hope of preventing the November presidential elections.
Canada Free Press (CFP) is an independent, conservative, electronic daily newspaper, updated several times a day. It boasts more than 100 writers and columnists who file stories regularly to the newspaper from all corners of the globe.
According to the newspaper’s coverage of this DHS “whistleblower,” the event would be a staged assassination attempt on the life of President Obama that would be blamed on “white supremacists” and subsequently used to enrage black and Hispanic communities driving them to rioting all across the nation.
The faked assassination, says the CFP report, would be carried out through the assistance of DHS agents, and “other colluders” taking their orders from the White House. The objective would be to stir up enough racial unrest to justify the imposition of martial law in major urban cities, including erecting DHS checkpoints, restricting travel, and delaying (possibly indefinitely) the November 2012 elections.
Doug Hagmann, reporting in the May 8, 2012 edition of the Canada Free Press wrote that his informant works in “the upper-echelon of DHS”, which he described as “effectively under the control of Barack Hussein Obama.”
Hagmann’s contact said: “The DHS is actively preparing for massive social unrest inside the United States. He then corrected himself, stating that ‘a civil war’ is the more appropriate term. Certain elements of the government are not only expecting and preparing for it, they are actually facilitating it.”
The DHS whistleblower mentioned a recent meeting at the Department of Homeland Security where plans were discussed to use pawns to simulate the rioting seen in the Arab Spring countries that would bring on a “controlled chaos” for the benefit of the Obama administration.
“Envisioned by these conspirators are riots starting in urban areas such as New York, followed by a disruption of business and commerce,” the DHS source added. “They want to restrict travel, if not through high energy prices, then by checkpoints and curfews mandated by the rioting and unrest…The whole purpose is to keep Obama in office for another term, no matter how unpopular he is, as he is not finished changing our country from a Constitutional Republic.”
This certainly isn’t the first rumor to surface about Mr. Obama’s intention to subvert the U.S. Constitution, by manipulating economic, racial and social issues that would polarize Americans and bring on enormous conflict but the full measure of this contrived event, if true, involves total suspension of our democratic rights, and repression on a scale never thought possible in the America we’ve known and cherished all our lives.
It’s a rumor that bears watching…and is worth spreading because the more people who know about it–and understand the high level of deceit and treachery that confronts us daily in Washington–the less likely it is for the rumor to become a reality.
The lesson here is that if people are aware of the possibility, even remote, of some great calamity befalling them, they’re on guard…they’re prepared…their defenses are up, and those who would commit evil, will back down fearing a confrontation they can’t win.
The more we talk about the potential for a staged, bogus presidential assassination that would trigger massive civil unrest and possible martial law, the stronger is our defense against it actually occurring. The nation will be watching. Patriots everywhere will be on alert. The Obama administration will be under scrutiny more intense than ever before. It doesn’t have the guts to take on millions of Americans when we’re ready for anything.
I wrote this a few months ago about the above article I added some historical references.
Am I paranoid or just plain crazy??!!
Friends, humor me and read this prelude from history and hopefully I am just crazy. And then read the following articles and comfort me in telling me “You just need to get some rest, or you have a lot of time on your hands along with an overactive imagination.”
“Once in power, both communists and fascists created totalitarian states. Every aspect of the peoples lives was regulated. Individual interests were made to bow before those of the state or party through the use of force and through an appeal to the ideal of service or duty to a cause that was made to appeal worthy of every sacrifice. Without this idealism, neither communism nor fascism would have been a threat.” “Hitler did not wait for the complete subjection of the officer corps before he established a totalitarian state….opponents of the regime had no way to to reach the public because the radio and the press were denied them, while under the direction of Dr. Goebbels the official propaganda reached every home. The educational system was used to indontricnate the youth of the nation, uncooperative professors were discharged, and books by Jewish authors were burned. Enemies of the regime were sought out by the Gestapo and the SS.
…..A demented youth set fire to the Reichstag. Hitler blamed the deed on the communists and, perhaps sincerely believing that a Bolshevik uprising was about to to take place, persuaded Hindenburg to issue an emergency decree suspending constitutional guarantees of freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Yet despite their violence and the widespread fear of a Communist uprising, the Nazis received 43.9 percent of the vote. With his Nationalist allies, Hitler barely controlled the Reichstag, but on March 23 he persuaded that assembly to pass an enabling act which gave him power to make laws, to initiate constitutional amendments, and to conclude treaties during the next four years without it’s consent. As this act altered the Constitution, it had to be passed by a two thirds vote. Hitler disposed of the eighty one Communists deputies by refusing to allow them to be seated on the grounds that they had plotted a “blood bath” The Catholic Center Party was persuaded to support the measure by generous promises and veiled threats. The president, army and conservatives were brought into line by a magnificently staged ceremony at Potsdam in which Hitler imitated that a monarchical restoration was in store. Catholic and conservative alike were also influenced by fear of communism, belief that parliament democracy would not function in Germany, and confidence that Hitler would not go to extremes. Only the social democrats opposed the enabling act. By a vote of 411 to 94, the Reichstag abdicated its authority. Germany became a dictatorship through constitutional procedure. It was only then the revolution really began.
During the months that followed, Hitler used his authority to dissolve the rival political parties and ban all private armies other then his own. Anti-Nazi officials were discharged, and the judiciary was gradually brought under control. The power of the separate states was greatly dimnished, and Germany became a centralized national state controlled from Berlin. Western World Renaissance To The Present 1965 pg 872-877
And then the action stage: “You can’t wage war with Salvation Army methods”-Adolf Hitler
The time had come. But Hitler couldn’t simply attack. He must first make it look like self defense.
“I shall give the propagandist reason for starting the war; never mind whether it was plausible or not. The victor will not be asked afterward whether he told the truth.” The plan was for the SS, dressed in Polish uniforms, to attack a German radio station on the Polish border. To make the whole thing authentic, they would need German “casualties”. They decided to us concentration camp inmates, whom they vilely referred to as “canned goods”. These victims of Germany would be dressed as German soldiers. In the end only one man was murdered for this purpose, via lethal injection, and afterward shot several times to give the appearance that he had been killed by Polish soldiers. In “retaliation” German troops marched into Poland at dawn on September 1st. Goring’s Luftwaffe rained hell from the skies, deliberately killing civilians. Civilians were murdered more carefully on the ground. It was a coldly deliberate act of terror by intentional mass murder never seen before in modern times.
And Hitler gave a speech before the Reich-stag casting himself in the role of aggrieved victim: “You know the endless attempts I made for a peaceful clarification and understanding of the problem in Austria and later of the problem in Sudentland, Bohemia and Moravia. It was all in Vain.” “I am wrongly judged if my love of peace and patience are mistaken for weakness or even cowardice…I have therefore resolved to speak to Poland in the same language that Poland for months past has used toward us.” “This night for the first time Polish regular soldiers fired on our own territory. Since 5:45AM we have been returning the fire, and from now on bombs will be met with bombs.” Bohhoeffer Pastor,Martyr, Prophet Spy pgs346-347 Eric Metaxes 2010
From Wikipedia: The Constitution does not authorize the President to use signing statements to circumvent any validly enacted Congressional Laws, nor does it authorize him to declare he will disobey such laws (or parts thereof). When a bill is presented to the President, the Constitution (Art. II) allows him only three choices: do nothing, sign the bill, or (if he disapproves of the bill) veto it in its entirety.
Obama’s use of signing statements has clearly shown his willingness to continue the George W. Bush legacy– not only of torture and illegal detainment, but in the dangerous trend of de facto rule by “executive fiat.” Worse, such signing statements put in place a precedent for future presidents to follow– or expand upon.
Further, Barack Obama has continued to backslide on his campaign promise not to use signing statements and executive orders to circumnavigate legislation signed into law. RELATED (Feb. 2010): Obama Breaks Yet Another Key Campaign Promise on Executive Orders, Signing Statements
After the legislation cleared Congress, the ACLU commented that signing the bill “will damage both his legacy and American’s reputation for upholding the rule of law,” while executive director of the Human Rights Watch blasted the President for being ‘on the wrong side of history,’ noting that “Obama will go down in history as the president who enshrined indefinite detention without trial in US law.”
Presidential candidate Ron Paul went even further, declaring that the NDAA bill begins the official establishment of martial law in the United States (see video).

Perdue jokes about suspending Congressional elections for two years….and then this:
Perdue’s case for postponing the 2012 elections was seconded by President Obama’s former budget director, Peter Orszag, in an article in this week’s issue of The New Republic. Citing what he called “the baleful infringement that elections impose on policy making,” Orszag argued for “stretching out the time between solicitations of input from voters to a more reasonable interval.”
Alleging that “a lot of valuable experience is tied up in present office holders,” Orszag maintained that “simply extending their terms would be the most efficient option. I mean, what person other than Barack Obama has the experience needed to do the job of president? I suppose you could argue that Bush or Clinton might, but they are Constitutionally ineligible for another term. All of the other contenders have zero experience at the position. Logically, we’d get the most experience for the least cost by letting everyone stay in place until the national and global situations are stable enough to allow us the luxury of another election.”
In related news, former Obama Administration “Green Jobs Czar,” Van Jones vowed he will lead “a people’s offensive that will crush Tea Party opponents of the President’s agenda.” Pointing to the “Arab Spring” that toppled Egyptian president Mubarak and is now in the process of implementing sharia law in that country as his model, Jones boasted that “80% of America is with us. The enemies of progressive policies will be swept aside once and for all.”
OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO STAGE ‘REICHSTAG’ EVENT AS TRIGGER FOR MARTIAL LAW, DHS SOURCE WARNS
‘Reichstag’ event could involve false assassination attempt blamed on “white supremacists”
Incited racial riots would lead to calls for government “crackdown”
Civil unrest would lead to martial law, DHS travel checkpoints, indefinite delay of elections
Washington, DC – The Obama agents, through the DHS and other assorted colluders, are plotting a major ‘Reichstag’ event to generate racial riots and produce the justification for martial law, delaying the November 2012 elections, possibly indefinitely, a DHS whistleblower informed the Canada Free Press on Tuesday.
The ‘Reichstag Event’ would take the form of a staged assassination attempt against Barack Obama, “carefully choreographed” and manufactured by Obama operatives. It would subsequently be blamed on “white supremacists” and used to enrage the black community to rioting and looting, the DHS source warned.
The Obama administration would then use the violence and chaos they created as justification for the imposition of martial law in major urban cities in America, the creation of DHS checkpoints, restriction of travel, and the indefinite delay of the November 2012 elections.
The Reichstag event refers to a fire started during Hitler’s rise to power. The fire allowed him to grab emergency powers and murder his opposition. Historians have long believed that Hitler started the fire himself, while he blamed it on the Communists.
The anonymous whistleblower elaborated on how the Obama administration is using the Occupy movement, labor unions, and other assorted subversive groups to create massive chaos within the nation.
“Using untracked campaign funds, they are paying people to infiltrate the various movements to cause physical destruction of property and disrupt commerce. That began last year, but has increased ten-fold already this year,” the DHS source shared.
“Obama is using some high profile people as pawns to foment the revolution. I heard several times through very credible sources that [Louis] Farrakhan is on the CIA payroll. Other have been named as well, but I’m not prepared to identify them yet. Farrakhan is to coordinate the Blacks and the Muslims to prepare for riots this summer, using any means necessary.”
The recent revelations appeared to complement warnings given by other government insiders, who alleged that Jeremiah Wright, Van Jones, Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson were all agent provocateurs whose mission was to inflame racial tensions and spark open conflict in the streets of America.
According to the DHS source, a global economic collapse is coming, which the Obama administration is well aware of. They wish to build a system of global governance from the ashes of the previous financial system. In order for this mission to be completed, the Obama administration needs more time at the helm of power. Their reasons for concern are justified; as recently as May 8, influential political prognosticator Dick Morris predicted a Romney landslide if the election were held today.
The shocking news also seemed to confirm recent actions taken by the DHS, such as their purchase of 450 million rounds of ammunition and their recent BlackHawk helicopters operation in Chicago, which looked frighteningly similar to a civil unrest exercise, but was described as “routine training”.
The concept of a staged assassination attempt against Barack Obama is not new as well and was first voiced by a knowledgeable White House insider known only as “WHI”.
Ulsterman: So what is it? Pull what off?
Insider: A manufactured threat against the President of the United States. Something easily digested by the media and the American public. Not a real threat – something totally of their own making. They will use it if they need to – got no doubt whatsoever about that. Jarrett has approved the idea…and did so a long time ago. There were whispers of it during the 2008 campaign. McCain was so god-awful it never reached a serious consideration…but the plan was discussed. If needed – they were willing to go that route. It would be the ultimate use of the race card in the history of American politics. And…it would likely work if they got away with it.
Ulsterman: They would go that far? Risk something like that?
Insider: You don’t need to ask that question. Not after what we’ve discussed this past year. Not after what I’ve told you has proven out over and over again. So stop asking the fu—ing question. You need to accept the fact…if you haven’t done so yet – you need to accept the fact these people are playing for keeps. I told you – how many times? How many times have I said it? These are not Democrats. These folks are something else entirely. And they are willing to push the country – all of us, right against the fu—ing wall. Hard. I’m pushing back. Others are too. All of this is part of that effort. A small part, but an important one.
As with the Occupy movement, it appears as if the Obama administration executed a test-run of the plot, with a “shot being fired” at the White House. This would lend credibility when they choreographed the attempt for the masses.
As early as August 2011, WHI also predicted race riots coming in the summer of 2012. The use of the Trayvon Martin death and the subsequent incitements to violence by the media, Obama operatives, and useful idiots, followed by the subsequent threats by the NBPP of a coming “race war” appear to have been merely a sign of what’s to come.
Middle-class American citizens were shocked and appalled at the allegations, with many hoping they were not true. Some said they had harbored similar suspicions for quite some time, due to the many anomalies and inaccuracies emanating from the current operatives inhabiting the White House.
The DHS source claimed that campaign funds were being directly used to fund the incitements to violence and rioting that the Obama administration was seeking to spark.
“Using untracked campaign funds, they are paying people to infiltrate the various movements to cause physical destruction of property and disrupt commerce. That began last year, but has increased ten-fold already this year,” stated this source.
“He added that they are using some lower level DHS agents to make the payments under the context of tracking subversives, but they are the unwitting subversives.”
The use of campaign funds, funneled through DHS agents to street-level agitators for the purpose of fomenting violence, would be extremely legally questionable, if not outright illegal, certain legal experts shared.
Intelligence officials said that if the allegations were true, the degree to which extremists had penetrated the upper echelons of the American government, finance, and security structure was unparalleled.
“Let’s just say that we are not taking these accusations lightly,” one official remarked on condition of anonymity. “Certain figures will be placed under a microscope, along with their associates.”
Valerie Jarrett, the shadowy figure always at Obama’s side, has been accused by some of “manipulating” or “controlling’ the President. Just who does she work for? Who does she take orders from?
The possibility that Barack Obama’s operatives, under the direction of Valerie Jarrett, was actively involved in the facilitation of street violence and mob chaos disturbed citizens, with many deeming it unpatriotic, subversive, and possibly seditious.

“Isn’t this why HUAC was created?”, one middle-class citizen angrily questioned. “Congress must re-instate HUAC, hold hearings, and find out if there is any truth to this.”
The intensely close co-ordination of seemingly separate entities confirmed the suspicions of many that communist agents had infiltrated major institutions, organizations, and trade unions, and were working together to sabotage America.
Who is Valerie Jarrett?
“Their apparatus can be seen as a type of octopus, having many tentacles,” one intelligence source confided on condition of anonymity. “Occupy is one tentacle, the unions are another, the Black Panthers are another, the radical black/Islamic supremacists(Wright, Farrakhan, Van Jones, Sharpton) are another, DHS and its’ umbrella agencies are another, the mainstream press is another,” the source explained. “These tentacles are all working together, seemingly separate, but eventually they are controlled by the same small group of people. They receive their directives and marching orders and mindlessly execute them.”
The intelligence official predicted that in the very near future, all of the seemingly separate entities would be clearly exposed as working together, co-ordination their activities together, and driving for the same goal – the destruction of America as a constitutional republic, the destruction of its capitalist system, and the dethroning of the U.S. as a superpower.

I don’t see christian conservatives or conservatives striving to legislate censorship in the airwaves or the internet. Only the left would have conjured up the “Fairness Doctrine” only the left when left to their own, round up the people utilizing the police, with whom they disagree with politically and then liquidate them with guns that they banned from public use. Only the left build liquidation camps that they herd the people in and exterminate them. Yes, my open minded friend, your side has a long documented bloody history of silencing their enemies, first from the public square, and then lining them up at the edge of the mass grave splattering two heads at a time…to conserve ammo that has been banned of course from public use.
“The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing. Indeed, I would go so far as to say that the supply of arms to the underdogs is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let’s not have any native militia or native police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order throughout the occupied Russian territories, and a system of military strong-points must be evolved to cover the entire occupied country.” –Adolf Hitler, dinner talk on April 11, 1942, quoted in Hitler’s Table Talk 1941-44: His Private Conversations, Second Edition (1973), Pg. 425-426. Translated by Norman Cameron and R. H. Stevens. Introduced and with a new preface by H. R. Trevor-Roper. The original German papers were known as Bormann-Vermerke.
Hey Obama, you stupid effing bastard: IT IS TITLED THE 2ND AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION, found in the Bill of Rights, ratified in 1789! You also swore an oath to protect & defend our Constitution against all enemies, foreign & DOMESTIC !!!!!! I HAVE A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO KEEP (OWN) & BEAR (CARRY) ARMS & that right SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you get it yet, Obozo???????????????????? “From my cold, dead hands” is not an idle threat, it is a pledge !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Democrats were once the party of the common man, Obama is proof that is no longer true. George Bush 41 Sr. was the first to mention the New World Order (NWO), Rich men that now own both political parties here in the USA. Both Parties will continue to attempt to disarm the people of the USA and the world because unarmed people can be forced more easily to accept anything. Hitler did it, Stalin did it. PolPot did it. Now the USA and UN want to do it. It isn’t about protection of life, if it was then Abortion, Contraception and Gay Rights would be illegal. It is about subjection of the people of the USA and world so that the WTO can plunder the resources of the world and reduce human life to a commodity such as pork bellies and barrels of oil to be bought and sold and used. Reducing the undesirable populace is the ultimate goal. I am not surprised that Mr. Obama wants to take away guns because that is one more step towards reducing the American people into cowering masses such as he is accustomed to in Kenya.
It’s a good thing some people can’t legally own guns,like those who have to answer yes to the question “are you a user of or addicted to Marijuana or illegal drugs? Which of course makes it illegal for a coke snorting, pot smoker even if he is President to own a gun. Of course the same question should have kept him from getting a security clearance.
My Creator gave me the right to keep and bear arms.
As OB put it himself, that is WAY above his pay grade so
he can believe what he wants and SHUT UP.
Obama, that is NOT your decision, any of your business and dam sure not your concern. Our Constitution guarantees us that right and you nor any other man or organization will take that way from us withoug walking through a firestorm.
THIS is exactly one of the many major points that will ensure your ass is bounced out of the White House this November.
You might want to concern yourself for charges of Treason shortly there after.
