ObamaPolice, A Civilan National Security Force?

During a campaign stop in Colorado, President Obama clearly articulated to his followers that he needed a "Civilian National Security Force". One that is, in his words, "as large, as well trained, as well funded, and as well armed" as our current military members. Recently, with the comments coming from his congressional partners and veiled mentions of his own, he seems to be making another push for this type of program.


In reality this is just one part of the a multi-part strategy to subjugate the American public and overthrow our Constitutional Republic. This strategy began, in an unprecedented move, before Obama even took office by pressuring the Bush administration to sign the first TARP bill. Next we had the massive stimulus bill that was a front for political payoffs to unions and supporters and to date, has not been show to be stimulative at all. Then we had TARP II, of which only 10% has been spent with no job creation anywhere other than the federal government. Now we have the government taking over 2/3Rd's of the US Auto manufacturing industry, and the play that was made to take over 1/6Th of the US economy with Health Care Reform.


Oops, ROAD BLOCK. The good people of this great country woke up and started telling their elected representatives that enough was enough. To date we have succeeded so far on at least putting it on hold. Make NO MISTAKE, HR3200 has Obama, Emmanuel, and Alinsky all over it. Systematic, Incremental, one part at a time and hopefully the public won't catch on till it's far to late. Now that the public has figured it out, we see the rhetoric and name calling from the administration and congress which points to just what this "Civilian" organization would b charged with. Protecting them (the socialists) from us, the portion of this country that still believes in Liberty and Freedom.


You see, what we have witnessed so far is really just the tip of the iceberg that sank the Titanic. Cap & Trade (tax), Either banning entirely or requiring federal firearm registration, The tamping down of religious expression and watering down of Christianity, and there is more, MUCH more.


However, the public has awoken from it's slumber and has begun to see the lies told by Obama during his campaign. In fact, the only thing that does not seem to be disingenuous about the campaign was change. And in order for them to get all the changes they want, they need HR3200 to pass with it's language intact. Mark my words, this is not JUST a health care reform bill. It paves the way for further more massive takeovers of the US Economy and ultimately a "Civilian National Security Force".


The ObamaPolice would serve as nothing more than an avenue by which to enforce edicts on those of us who disagree and would revolt. Make no mistake, it would operate without constraint of any kind. It would not have to recognize States rights or local LEO's. It would function without any regard to the "Due Process" clause of the US Constitution. Miranda, a thing of the past. In fact, federalizing a prison in Michigan on the auspices of using it for Guantanamo detainees could pave the way for federalizing other facilities to use as interment and reeducation camps. All of this is real, and scary. It has been telegraphed because they don't think the American public has the stomach to stand up and fight them. My fellow Americans, lets reset the balance in Washington by using our constitutional right to vote for solid candidates who cherish and value the constitution.

Reason, What the Obamacommies forgot

Is it a flash of self awareness that ensures we do not forget humanity's ultimate goal? What answers are mankind searching so desperately for? Perhaps it is the feeling that our government is simply unable to function in a rational manner. That the answers are posited before the questions are formed and we are advised that thinking about the question is not the way to approach the problem, and that instead we should just be able to "feel" the answer is right regardless of the question.

Reason and logic must be the guide to determining somethings validity. We are after all the top of the food chain, the ultimate predator. Reason, when applied, dictates that we live our lives unencumbered by having to "feel" whether or not we are paying homage to the "social consciousness". Reason using beings strive to live their lives in a way which maximizes our return on investment without encroaching on another persons right to do so ,and to do that without force towards another reasoned being. Reasoned beings should ever strive to be free of any system which has as it's highest moral principle, "from each according to his ability, to each according to his NEED".

We must escape from the inconsistency in our own moral contexts which provide us with no end of conflicts. Escape from being led down a path where our reason conflicts with the public demand that we "feel with our hearts" what is good. Feel what and for whom.

Reason demands that we act consistent with our nature as human beings. Emotion or feeling demands that we often disregard our nature altogether. Reason posits that absolutes exist and are inviolable. Feelings claim that everything is subjective and in a grey area.

In this time of great debate about the direction of this country and the freedom's which are being systematically removed, reason is far more valuable a resource than one's feelings. Just because we "feel" bad for those with real health care and insurance issues, does not mean that we all should give up our freedom's in this area to fix their problem. Reason tells me that what is being proposed and promoted in an emotional way is antithetical to the liberty that I desire. Pressure your members of congress to do a better job than they have. After all, when reason was applied to this health care bill many of us were dismissed and called names. The American public deserves better from Washington.

A Funny Thing Happened While Waiting at the Tire Shop

An interesting observation struck me yesterday as I waited at a local tire shop for some work to be done on my car. A conversation broke out about health care. I am positive it was NOT organized by the RNC. No AstroTurf was in sight. Not even a single, solitary, synthetic blade.

Of the six individuals waiting for their vehicles, none wanted the Obama administration of congress running America's health care system. Six uniquely American individuals, seniors, middle aged, veterans, male, female, none of who wanted or trusted universal health care. As I believe I wrote in a prior blog, "you can dress up a pig and call it a cow but it is still a pig".

Another observation was that the conversation centered around distrust of governments ability to run health care and the costs associated with it. Treatment cost, insurance costs, Medicare costs, and Washington's seeming inability to pay for the obligations it currently has without the addition of at LEAST 1 TRILLION dollars of additional spending for health care. It was the consensus amongst us that 1.) Costs are out of whack with normal society, and , 2.) Government has shown itself unable to control any costs or afford any additional ones.

These were the two things that seem to be at the crux of what the American people oppose in the current proposals. Everyone I was speaking with had the understanding that nothing had as yet been actually decided in Washington. But HR3200 has made it out to the general public and, by a fairly significant margin in my observations, has not been well received.

Once HR 3200 leaked out it was crystal clear to most of us why the White House and Congress wanted this legislation rammed through in two weeks (before the August recess). What was supposed to be a break filled with feel good meetings touting the wonderful benefits of Universal Health Care has turned into a frank and oft times heated discussion by the American people on the flaws and fears HR 3200 has generated.

It is quite simple really. With medicare and social security bankrupt, Senior citizens are losing confidence in government. Those of us in our 30's to 50's are just seeing one financial boondoggle after another and we seriously doubt governments ability to be both honest and competent not to mention financial secure. This presents a problem to both the Obama administration and Congress. Should they be voted out if they continue to ignore the American public? Should we vote them out and replace them with people who have a better idea what being a public servant means? We will see what the public does at the polls in 2010.

The Democrats Incremental Plan


How do you implement a socialist power block, a far left socialist government, in a Constitutional Republic? How do you bypass the will of the people, violate their God given rights, take more and more rights away from the states and into some massive, bloated, overblown centralized government? The Answer, A Little Bit at a Time. Incrementally.

We are now seeing this very ideology, this method of governing, in its totality in Washington, DC. What, if anything, is amusing about this, is the Obama administration with it's attempts to reign in Congress back to the incremental stage. However, the hard left socialists in congress (Pelosi, Reid, Boxer, Frank, Waxman), have all but told him NO, realizing that now is the time. Obama has made it clear that he understands he can not ram his socialist agenda down the public throat all at once.

Medicare, Social Security, Employer Withholding of Income Taxes, SCHIP, the "Stimulus" boondoggle, Cap and Tax, Card Check, Health Care Co-ops, Incremental steps. Oh, did you manage to catch the co-op one? That's right, health care co-ops to be exact. What exactly would a health care co-op be? How would it function? How is it a part of socialized medicine? Quite simply, it is just another way of dressing up a pig and calling it a bird of paradise. It would be Government funded, and with government funding comes government mandates. If passed in any sort of health care bill, it would be yet another incremental step towards a full government take over of the health care system in this country and Washington fully in control of another 1/6th of the US economy. Make no mistake, if we allow Washington to foist a bill on us with any parts of HR3200 in it, we will not be able to turn back the clock on it and they know it.

This is, in a sense , A seminal moment in our founding fathers experiment in representative government. Never in the history of the Democrat party have so many been willing to sacrifice their seats in congress to further their socialist agendas. Perhaps it is because their own hubris has blinded them to their constituents desires. Or, more likely, they believe that with the administrations ties to Acorn, they can turn double digit negatives into re-election in 2009/2010.

Whatever their reasons are, it is crystal clear that this administration and its far left allies in congress will try their best to push this country away from it's roots as a constitutional republic and towards a socialist democracy, with 1 party rule (theirs), and no dissent. A Little Bit At A Time.
