Obama Owns Supreme Court’s Decision; Obamacare is Legal as a Tax!

When is a win not a win or a tax not a tax? Or maybe I should have opined, “be careful for what you wish for, you may get it.” 

Obamacare passed constitutional muster today in a 5-4 decision written by Chief Justice Roberts. The most hated piece of legislation ever passed by the Congress is now officially the law of the land.

Yea, rah rah, maybe!

Chief Justice Roberts is either the cleverest or the most devious jurist ever. With his majority opinion in place, that Obamacare is not constitutional under the Commerce Clause, but is constitutional as a tax, Obama is stuck explaining how this contradiction in his portrayal of the law could have come to pass.

After all, didn’t Obama and is minions tell the American people countless times that Obamacare was not a tax.

This is from the White House Insider and what today’s decision means:

And the initial reports I’m getting are telling me there was a lot more clever going on inside that decision than the initial reaction will indicate. It’s the Obama Tax now.  And states were given an out.  The entire law is a big ass convoluted mess and the ruling has reinforced that fact.  Obama will have to defend something he doesn’t understand, and Romney can now sit back and just repeat over and over again “repeal-repeal-repeal”.

Oh, one other thing, it’s going to be a long, long time before Obama and the radical progressives will be able to talk about “activist judges” on the Supreme Court subverting the will of Congress and the American people.  Chief Justice John Roberts just saw to that.

No Domestic Drones;Drawing a Line in the Sand

Privacy is produced by exercising control of information about ourselves!  Jim Harper Cato Institute

 May 15, 2012 

Enough is enough! As a friend of mine is fond of saying, “I’ve had it Jack!”

Since 9/11 we’ve witnessed a series of new laws, the Patriot Act, NDAA, laws allowing warrantless surveillance, and presidential directives (Obama can order the killing of a U.S. citizen he considers a threat) all designed to strip Americans of their rights to privacy while giving the government the unabated authority to spy on us.

I stopped asking questions like, “where’s MSM on this story?” a long time ago. The answer is firmly in the Socialist hip pocket of Obama and his administration.

Besides this group has been too busy wasting our time with non-news stories covering every conceivable topic except the political decisions by our law makers & government that impart real impact on our lives. 

The FAA has authorized the use of aerial drones by law enforcement agencies , without any public discussion. The most basic question yet to be asked is where did the FAA authority come from? Certainly, not the Constitution! But never let it be said that will stop our Congress, a body that passes unconstitutional legislation all the time.

Anyone hear of H.R. 658? Thought not. The law signed by our poseur president, Obama, requires the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to “integrate drones into American airspace by 2015,”

 “Aerial drones are now used by the Texas Department of Public Safety; the Mesa County Sheriff’s Office, Colorado; the Miami-Dade County, Florida, Police Department; and the Department of Homeland Security.

Rarely, do I agree with the ACLU, but they have been on point on this issue and the NDAA. This is one area where civil libertians, conservatives, moderates and yes even progressives can agree.

Drones are high-tech instruments of war that should be banned for use in the U.S. PERIOD! Not surprisingly, the NY Times calls the domestic drones “scary and useful!”

If the “war on terror” is over, as the Obama administration recently stated, pray tell just what is the necessity for upwards of 30,000 domestic drones by the year 2020?

Common Dreams’ progressive blog has just provided the FAA’s completed list of organizations “clamoring” for drones. Prepare yourself to be surprised by who believes they need domestic drones!


Is Obama Building a Case for War with Iran?

An assessment by U.S. spy agencies concludes that Iran is prepared to launch terrorist attacks inside the United States, highlighting new risks as the Obama administration escalates pressure on Tehran to halt its alleged pursuit of an atomic bomb.  The Washington Post

 

We’ve been down this road before haven’t we, only last time it was Bush and Iraq playing cat and mouse. We said they had weapons of mass destruction, they said they didn’t; however they stopped inspectors from verifying what they were saying was the truth. As we all know, that was a big mistake.

A DISTINCTION WITH NO DIFFERENCE

ONE IN THE SAME

Now we have our fake President Obama (what Constitution?), the man that now can detain any American citizen without due process simply by stating the person is a terrorist, the man who has already ordered the killing of an American citizen abroad, is playing cat and mouse with Iran.


Defense Secretary Leon Panetta recently made clear in an interview with CBS that the U.S. will not allow Iran to get a nuclear bomb; period.

Walter Russell outlined Team Obama’s position in Via Meadia.

If Washington must bomb Iranian facilities to stop them, Obama will bomb.

[...] Panetta said “the United States does not want Iran to develop a nuclear weapon. That’s a red line for us. We will take whatever steps are necessary to stop them. A nuclear Iran is unacceptable”.

When US secretaries talk about “whatever steps are necessary” they are not usually talking about holding one more meeting of the sanctions committee.  They are thinking shock and awe and not cookies and tea.

Is it possible the Iranians are foolish enough to really go after the U.S. with an “all out war” or will that be the propaganda our obedient FOOS (Friends of Obama) in the MSM will be spewing in the upcoming months?  

Salon’s Glenn Greenwald thinks so. In fact, he says the some in the MSM appear to be banging the war drums with relish and in a manner that would have been anathema if Bush 43 was targeting Iran. 

Is war with Iran inevitable before November of 2012 and will another event like 9/11 be manufactured as justification? 

All of which leads to whether you can you believe your own eyes and believe our fake President?

The Cain Smear Campaign & the Elitist Cabal that Benefits

Who Benefits if Herman Cain is Knocked Out?

George Carlin and the Illusion of Choice – Uber Cynical – You Don’t Need a Formal Conspiracy when Interests Converge!


There’s only one question to ask as we watch the latest assault on a political candidate that isn’t the choice of the Elitist Cabal.

Who has the most to gain if Herman Cain is knocked out?

If you said Perry, or Romney, or Obama you’d be right on all accounts. 

Right now GOP candidates and Team Obama find they are losing to a man who wasn’t counted on to be part of their plans for the 2012 election! Cain is mucking up the works (that means he’s leading in the polls) in the same manner that the Tea Party has and that can’t be allowed to continue, hence these anonymous sources are surfacing.

If you’re still naive enough to believe that there’s a difference between the Washington patricians in either party, I’ve got a bridge for you.

The idea is to make the “good fight” look real enough for those voters gullible enough to go another round during the next election. Ya, let’s have those Democratic and GOP candidates snarling at each other; it’s incredibly good theater, don’t ya know. (Make it good fellas!)

While we’re at who is clever and Machiavellian enough to pull this off. One name that immediately comes to mind is Karl Rove. Yes, you’re saying to yourself, but why would he hurt a genuine conservative candidate like Cain? Well for starters Team Rove didn’t choose Cain to be the GOP candidate to run against Obama.

If you don’t think that’s a big deal, I’ve got two names for you; Christine O’Donnell and Sharon Angle. If Rove and the GOP elitists were really interested in capturing the Senate in 2010 why did he destroy these two Tea Party women? BTW, Rove was no fan of Sarah Palin either.

You can thank Rove for allowing Harry Reid to continue his obstructionist policies as the Senate Majority Leader. (51 Democrats; 47 Republicans; 2 Independents)

Read on.

As Lame Cherry points out:

 Romney is smear central and had a hand in this. Rove has been slinking around setting this up and Obama’s fingers are banging all over this. Romney can’t at 25 points defeat Cain, so he has to root around finding dirt.

Rove can’t have Romney adding Cain to the ticket, as this is about Jeb Bush as I told you from day one in why all this was set up. Obama can’t beat Cain in the election, so he needs Romney AS THAT IS WHAT ROVE AND THE GOP ESTABLISHMENT PROMISED HIM.

 Who benefits?

 

Why Are the Feds Turning Off All TV & Radio Communications on November 9th?

On November 9, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time, televisions and radios across the nation will broadcast a series of beeps followed by the message, “This is a test.”   will mark the first time that the federal government conducts a nationwide, “top-to-bottom” test.

Why do the Feds need to test a COMPLETE communications blackout?

The Blaze opines that “only the President has the authority to activate EAS at the national level, and he has delegated that authority to the Director of FEMA.  The test will be conducted jointly by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through  FEMA, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS).

In essence, the authority to seize control of all television and civilian communication has been asserted by the executive branch and handed to a government agency.

The EAS has been around since 1994. Its precursor, the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS), started back in 1963.  Television and radio broadcasters, satellite radio and satellite television providers,  cable television and wireline video providers are all involved in the system.”

Here are a few additional questions.

What if something goes wrong & we’re out of communications for days, weeks, hours?

What other damage can be done with all communications down?

Is this a precursor to an up and coming false flag event?

Just asking!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cain Hit Piece by Politico Predictable and Unintensionally Funny

  • He breathed audibly, glared at the reporter and stayed silent for several seconds. After the question was repeated three times, he responded by asking the reporter, “Have you ever been accused of sexual harassment?”

from the new Politico novel Black Man Coming

The gloves are off. Maybe we should file this under reading between the lines; what they wrote and what they really meant!

Politico in concert with MSNBC and others are breathlessly reporting on allegations:

  • that “at least two” female employees complained to colleagues and senior association officials about inappropriate behavior by Cain. “At least two” really means, “damn, we tried to make it more while pretending to be journalists and couldn’t find a way!”
  • The women complained of sexually suggestive behavior by Cain that made them angry and uncomfortable. What the hell does this mean, suggestive? Either his behavior was or it wasn’t.

  • In one case, POLITICO has seen documentation describing the allegations and showing that the restaurant association formally resolved the matter. What this means is they’ve seen one side of the story, the allegation side they are using as a device to weaken Cain and strengthen Obama.
  • Both women received separation packages that were in the five-figure range. Five figure range? You mean the payoff could have been as little as $10,000? Sounds like a nuisance suit to me. Now if these women received $500,000 each that would be worthy of a second look.

There were also descriptions of physical gestures that were not overtly sexual but that made women who experienced or witnessed them uncomfortable.

 OK, I’m trying to figure out what kind of physical gesture that wasn’t overtly sexual, could be.

If Cain whipped “it” out and placed it on the table THAT would be suggestive. But no, it can’t be that. Did he place his hands in his ears and go, “Bugga,bugga, bugga”?

Unless Politico has something more than allegations, accusations, and anonymous sources this is a waste of my time and yours!

BTW, do you think the fact that this Politico piece was written by easily identified Journolisters could have tainted their perception of the truth? Na, what am I thinking?

Louisiana Bans Cash Sales; Why the Government Wants to Take Your Cash

“Money’s destiny is to become digital,” announced a 2002 study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. In terms of public safety and national security, the sooner the world moves to a digital cashless economy, the better. Jonathan Lipow

The headline screamed, “Louisiana Bans Cash!” When I heard this two days ago I thought it was a joke, but this isn’t funny and it’s no joke.

The State of Louisiana has banned cash sales on all 2nd hand goods. Yes, boys ‘n girls you can no longer go to a swap meet, antique store, garage sale, etc. and use cash to purchase your items .

The excuse being used by the author of House Bill 195, Rickey Hardy, is that by eliminating cash sales of second hand goods this will help law enforcement track stolen goods like copper, etc.

Customers will have to use checks, credit cards, or purchase a money order. And it gets worse, according to Attorney Thad D. Ackel, lead counsel at Ackel and Associates LLC.:

. “For every transaction a secondhand dealer must obtain the seller’s personal information such as their name, address, driver’s license number and the license plate number of the vehicle in which the goods were delivered. They must also make a detailed description of the item(s) purchased and submit this with the personal identification information of every transaction to the local policing authorities through electronic daily reports.”

Now why would Louisiana or any state want to ban cash sales? Because they want to track our every move.

This is just the first OVERT step in moving us towards a cashless society, towards implanted tracking chips, national ID cards, and more.

Here’s another excuse for a NWO cashless society. Turn in your cash and we’ll all be safer!. Ya, right!

 

Why it’s hard to take the Wall Street protesters seriously

We’re into week three or four of the Wall Street protests against corporate greed and what have we learned? Well, for one thing, this group is good for laughs.

What do they say about a picture being worth a thousand words? Let’s file these two pictures in our memory bank under nuff said. I mean really, they want to be taken seriously?

No, r-e-a-l-l-y?

More bong politics and progressive activism, pretending to part of a serious political movement.

Protesting & Pooping in My Nike's

Talking about serious movements, did you get a load (sorry, I couldn’t resist) of this guy?

H/T to Maggie’s Notebook for this glam photo.

Nothing’s funnier in my book than a guy protesting “corporate greed” & pooping on a police car in NYC while wearing his Nike’s.

What we’re talking about is a group where slogans matter more than substance

What we have are the privileged, pampered, parroting kids born and bred on  progressive speak down on Wall Street making a mess, getting arrested, and wasting time. They are laughable.

No one captures the American political scene better than Michael Ramirez.  He’s spot on here!

 

Can’t we get Obama to just shut up?

I don’t know about you, but I can barely stand to hear Obama say three words.

Talk about fingernails on a chalkboard! The Reverend Al, Lawrence O’Donnell, just about everyone at MSNBC…NUKE’EM!
