Only One Reason for Joint Session--Resignation

Only One Reason for Joint Session--Resignation:

The request by President Obama to speak to a joint session of Congress simply to give a speech on the economy seems inappropriate and unprecedented. But is that what he really wants to achieve?

I think that he will actually offer his resignation to save the country from deteriorating further since he took office. It will be his grand gesture...his martyrdom...that will allow him to avoid a bitter defeat in 2012.

If you don't think this is true, then spread the word of this idea, and maybe it will take hold!....................

Prison Planet.com � Ron Paul: Rick Perry is a Flip-Flopper ~ "there is little difference between Republicans and Democrats"

Prison Planet.com � Ron Paul: Rick Perry is a Flip-Flopper:

Paul said Perry may “walk off” with the presidency if the American people do not wake up and realize there is little difference between Republicans and Democrats, as evidenced by Perry’s support for healthcare at gunpoint and his role as Al Gore’s Texas campaign manager in 1988.

Perry claims he did not know at the time Gore was a radical global warmist.

Jones added that Perry – despite his phony states’ rights and Tea Party rhetoric – is a dyed in the wool globalist who worked behind the scenes to implement a Trans-Texas Corridor slicing through Texas from the Mexican border to Oklahoma. Perry proposed that the border-busting project be financed by private contractors (principally Cintra in Spain) in exchange for the right to levy tolls in Texas...................

Carney: Obama Recognizes "There Are Things He Can Do Without Congress And He Will Do Them" (Video)

Carney: Obama Recognizes "There Are Things He Can Do Without Congress And He Will Do Them" (Video):

JAY CARNEY, WH Press Secretary: "They don't give a lick about the day and time:

ED HENRY, FOX News: "Why doesn't he give a speech from the oval office tonight saying here's my plan?"

CARNEY: "He wants to speak before Congress because he recognizes that while there are things he can do without Congress, and he will do them, there are actions that need to be taken with Congress that require legislation to grow the economy and create jobs. And he wants to go to Congress, speak directly to members of Congress, and layout his proposals."

(MSNBC) Wolffe: Opposition To Obama Speech Possibly Based On Skin Color:

"The interesting question is: What is it about this president that has stripped away the veneer of respect that normally accompanies the Office of the President? Why do Republicans think this president is unpresidential and should dare to request this kind of thing?

It strikes me that it could be the economic times, it could be that he won so big in 2008 or it could be, let's face it, the color of his skin. This is an extraordinary reaction to a normal sequence of events,"

President Obama Acting Like King George III

President Obama Acting Like King George III:

When the President publicly ordered the leaders of the House and the Senate to appear at the White House the next day, prepared to answer his demands for a debt ceiling resolution, many observers noted the high-handedness of his way of dealing with the coordinate and equal branches of government. He showed no respect for their constitutional independence.

Now, though, matters have taken a turn distinctly for the worse.

The President has commanded that they make the floors of the legislative houses available to him at a specific time and date without first clearing it with them. Worse, he did so by way of a public announcement rather than a private discussion. He acted, that is, not as president and commander-in-chief but as a royal authority.

Ron Paul: Feds Preparing For “Breakdown Of Law And Order” ~ "Presidential candidate warns of government “power grab” in time of crisis"

Ron Paul: Feds Preparing For “Breakdown Of Law And Order”

Presidential candidate warns of government “power grab” in time of crisis

Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Thursday, September 1, 2011


Asked about his recent comments regarding how authorities in the United States were “setting the stage for violence in this country,” Presidential candidate Ron Paul elaborated on how the federal government was preparing for a “breakdown in law and order.”

“They’re planning for any provision,” Paul told the Alex Jones Show, adding that the federal government is very much aware of history.

“You can have a breakdown of law and order so the people will unfortunately be begging for stabilization, and they’ll be inviting the federal government to come in and destabilize things, so I think they’re making plans along those lines,” said the Texas Congressman.
Responding to a question about whether such preparations were about a power grab on behalf of the federal government, Paul responded, “That’s their goal, it’s all about power.”
When pressed who the “they” were, Paul named the Federal Emergency Management Agency, who have come in for harsh criticism from the Congressman in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene.

Riots that emerged largely as a consequence of economic hardships have gripped Europe and the Middle East over the past 18 months, although little significant unrest has so far been seen in the United States.

Obama and the Burden of Exceptionalism

Obama and the Burden of Exceptionalism:

If I've heard it once, I've heard it a hundred times: President Obama is destroying the country. Some say this destructiveness is intended; most say it is inadvertent, an outgrowth of inexperience, ideological wrong-headedness and an oddly undefined character.

Indeed, on the matter of Mr. Obama's character, today's left now sounds like the right of three years ago. They have begun to see through the man and are surprised at how little is there.

Yet there is something more than inexperience or lack of character that defines this presidency: Mr. Obama came of age in a bubble of post-'60s liberalism that conditioned him to be an adversary of American exceptionalism. In this liberalism America's exceptional status in the world follows from a bargain with the devil—an indulgence in militarism, racism, sexism, corporate greed, and environmental disregard as the means to a broad economic, military, and even cultural supremacy in the world.

And therefore America's greatness is as much the fruit of evil as of a devotion to freedom.

FEMA’S use of term ‘federal family’ for government expands under Obama

GEORGE BENNETT
Palm Beach Post
Thursday, September 1, 2011


Don’t think of it as the federal government but as your “federal family.”


In a Category 4 torrent of official communications during the approach and aftermath of Hurricane Irene, the Federal Emergency Management Agency has repeatedly used the phrase “federal family” when describing the Obama administration’s response to the storm.
“Under the direction of President Obama and Secretary Janet Napolitano, the entire federal family is leaning forward to support our state, tribal and territorial partners along the East Coast,” a FEMA news release declared Friday as Irene churned toward landfall.

The G-word — “government” — has been nearly banished, with FEMA instead referring to federal, state and local “partners” as well as “offices” and “personnel.”

In days of yore, the Town Crier delivered his message in the village square.  The news came after the ringing of a bell and the words “Now hear this…”
President Barack Obama is the Town Crier of the Internet.  His message, like the one sent to millions last night, subject line “Frustrated” arrives on your PC in the middle of the night.
With shades of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Obama is going to Congress.

And if plebes didn’t know any better, they would think that

Obama had been spending all of his time trying to put Americans back to work instead of frittering away the lion’s share of his time vacationing and golfing between working at the fundamental Transformation of America.

It’s Congress and not We the People Obama is fighting.

In any case, it’s the “lawmakers” in Congress and not George W. Bush this time who have been holding Obama back from delivering his big, bursting-at-the-seams job plan.
Obama is if nothing else, is a very classic Marxist.................

Multiculturalism: The Slow Suicide of Planned Destruction
September 1, 2011 Gunny G

It is 1991, and Yugoslavia, born of the ashes of WWI, is starting to break up. It is a violent affair that will be long, painful, bloody, and complex. Numerous wars in the multi-ethnic region will be fought, with Slovenia, Croatia, and Bosnia declaring independence from Serb-dominated Yugoslavia and, in turn, Serb minorities seeking independence from the last two regions. Slovenes, Croats, Bosnians (virtually all Muslim), and Albanians (largely Muslim) will battle Serbs. Croats and Bosnians will unite to battle them — then fight each other as well — then unite again; and Albanians will take up the sword against Macedonians.

Muslims will burn churches, and minority populations will be purged from many of these regions.

They are the first conflicts since WWII to be formerly deemed genocidal, and these wars will introduce English-speakers to a new term: ethnic cleansing.

Petraeus Retires, with a Warning

Petraeus Retires, with a Warning:

WASHINGTON—An era in the American military came to an end on Wednesday when David H. Petraeus, the most influential general of his generation, retired with a 17-gun salute and a warning that coming budget cuts should not lead to the “hollow Army” that occurred after the Vietnam War.

Just 11 days before the 10th anniversary of Osama Bin Laden’s attacks on New York and Washington, General Petraeus also implicitly cautioned that the United States should not abandon the troop-intensive and expensive counterinsurgency doctrine that was his hallmark when he commanded the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Cops Confiscate Lakewood Lady’s Arsenal; Motive Pending:

Francesca Rice no longer serves in her country’s armed forces, but she brought a piece of the action back home with her.

It seems the Lakewood vet had stockpiled her Edgewater Towers condo with a home arsenal including handguns, shotguns, a sniper rifle — plus a Thompson sub-machine gun, just in case the pizza guy got fresh.

Her cache somehow caught the attention of Lakewood Police, who paid a visit last September. When they found Rice wasn’t home, they asked an obliging employee of the complex to open up the apartment without her consent. Once inside, they raided the gun rack, making off with 13 firearms worth around $15,000. The only problem: They had no apparent reason to.

9/11 Truth Message Gets Out as Indianapolis Towers Implode

August 31, 2011
An Infowars.com reader and listener to the Alex Jones Show brought his message of 9/11 truth to the airwaves in Indianapolis on Sunday.
During the planned demolition of the Keystone Towers – a building erected in 1974 that was imploded this week – the man climbed up on a stage near the site and bellowed as the towers crumbled: “9/11 is right in front of you! 9/11 was an inside job!”
The comments are clearly heard at one minute, 59 seconds into the video aired over News 8 in Indianapolis.

Appeals Court Rules It Is Not Illegal To Film Police

Americans still being arrested for recording cops as a consequence of mass hoax
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Thursday, September 1, 2011

Despite the mass hoax still being promulgated by both the mainstream media and local authorities across America, the First Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that it is not illegal for citizens to videotape police officers when they are on public duty.
“The filming of government officials while on duty is protected by the First Amendment, said the Court,” reports Daily Tech.

“The filming of government officials engaged in their duties in a public place, including police officers performing their responsibilities, fits comfortably within these principles [of protected First Amendment activity].,” said the Court. “Gathering information about government officials in a form that can readily be disseminated to others serves a cardinal First Amendment interest in protecting and promoting the free discussion of governmental affairs,” stated the ruling, adding that this has been the case all along, and that the right to film police officers is not just restricted to the press.

The case cited several examples where citizens were arrested for documenting acts of police brutality on recording devices, including that of Simon Glik, who was arrested after he filmed Boston police punching a man on the Boston Common.
Another case involved Khaliah Fitchette, a teenager who filmed police aggressively removing a man from a bus in Newark. Fitchette was arrested and detained for two hours before police deleted the video from her cellphone.

The court ruling also made it clear that bloggers who report news ba
sed on their recordings of police have equal protection under the law as journalists.

Why President Obama was smart to reschedule his jobs speech

Why President Obama was smart to reschedule his jobs speech:

Less than 12 hours after announcing that President Obama would deliver his much anticipated jobs speech on Sept. 7 — the same day and time of a previously scheduled Republican presidential debate in California — the White House changed course, shifting the speech to Sept. 8.

Reaction was swift — with Republicans crowing that the president had caved and some Democrats grumbling privately about the mishandling of such a basic piece of political planning.

But Obama and his political team were smart to reschedule the event for (at least) three reasons.................

Ignore The Police! by Bill Rounds

Ignore The Police! by Bill Rounds:

Ignore The Police: "Free To Leave" Encounters

Police may stop people on the street in what is known as a "consensual" encounter for no reason at all. Police could potentially ask you for a face (or iris) scan during this "consensual" encounter. If you reasonably think you are free to leave you can ignore everything the police are saying and just walk away. (Florida v. Royer; Michigan v. Chesternut). If you aren't sure, or you just want to be polite, one of the best things you can say is "am I free to leave or am I being detained?"

Stopping the encounter as soon as possible before a scan of your face can be required is the best way to prevent a facial scan. If you aren't free to go, you are being detained....................

World Trade Center Building 7 and Conspiracy Theories by Gary North

World Trade Center Building 7 and Conspiracy Theories by Gary North:

LIES, SPIN, AND COVER-UPS

My point is simple: every Establishment rules in terms of lies, spin, and cover-ups. Most of the citizenry is vaguely aware of the lies and the spin on this or that minor matter, but voters side with the regime on the big lies. To do otherwise is to call into question their own wisdom. It is to admit that you were successfully taken in on some major matter – you and millions of others. This undermines the religion of democracy. It means that republican patriotism is based on widespread gullibility. "Fool me once, shame on the government. Fool me 20 times, shame on me." So, once the masses have adopted the Official Party Line, to abandon it means abandoning your old self and your old world of political legitimacy. It means that you are now on your own – an outlaw, a pariah.

The defectors from Communism who went into print about their defections all described this gut-wrenching, soul-searching loss of faith in Stalin's Party Line. The most famous account was (and remains) Whittaker Chambers' book, Witness (1952).

Different events triggered these defections: the Nazi-Soviet pact of 1939, Khrushchev's 1956 "secret" speech on Stalin, or the Soviet Union's invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968...............................

Pat Caddell for VP! (kidding..am I?)

Pat Caddell for VP! (kidding..am I?):

I was working on my computer this afternoon and then internet went down. Checked my TV and no cable at all so I simply went through all channels and then I ended up on CSpan2. Pat Caddell was speaking (event happened on July 30, 2011). Certainly did not mean to listen but then for may be 2 minutes I did something else while the sound was still on. WOW...I suddenly found myself listening really seriously to Pat Caddell - could not believe my ears. I mean, that guy would have been at a Tea Party rally he would have won the day - for sure.

Of course he talked about Carter for 1 minute, he insisted that he was still a democrat, but of the old guard democrat.

Honestly, everything that guy said was..fantastic!!!

If you have an hour to lose (or willing to learn something from a democrat) please listen:
