Is the Soros-Sponsored 'Agenda 21' a Hidden Plan for World Government? (Yes, Only it Is Not Hidden)!-Posted on The Blaze-By Mike Opelka-On June 14, 2011:

What is Agenda 21?  If you do not know about it, you should.

Agenda 21 is a two-decade old, grand plan for global ’Sustainable Development,’ brought to you from the United Nations. George H.W. Bush (and 177 other world leaders) agreed to it back in 1992, and in 1995, Bill Clinton signed Executive Order #12858, creating a Presidential Council on ‘Sustainable Development.’ This effectively pushed the UN plan into America’s large, churning government machine without the need for any review or discussion by Congress or the American people.

‘Sustainable Development’ sounds like a nice idea, right?  It sounds nice, until you scratch the surface and find that Agenda 21 and Sustainable Development are really cloaked plans to impose the tenets of Social Justice/Socialism on the world.

At risk from Agenda 21:

Private Property ownership

Single-Family homes

Private car ownership and individual travel choices

Privately owned farms

The Agenda 21 plan openly targets private property.  For over thirty-five years the UN has made their stance very clear on the issue of individuals owning land;

Land cannot be treated as an ordinary asset, controlled by individuals and subject to the pressures and inefficiencies of the market. Private land ownership is also a principal instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to social injustice; if unchecked, it may become a major obstacle in the planning and implementation of development schemes. The provision of decent dwellings and healthy conditions for the people can only be achieved if land is used in the interest of society as a whole.

Source: United Nations Conference on Human Settlements (Habitat I),Vancouver, BC, May 31 – June 11, 1976. Preamble to Agenda Item 10 of the Conference Report.

There are two more, very good reasons to be wary of Agenda 21 and the International Council of Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI) that supports it: George Soros and the United Nations. Soros money has been tracked to funding parts of ICLEI ;

In 1997, George Soros’s Open Society gave ICLEI a $2,147,415 grant to support its Local Agenda 21 Project.

As regards the UN, that organization‘s problems with America’s appreciation of freedom and self-determination is one that needs no explanation.

Currently in California, Agenda 21 is working to implement plans to create plans for sustainable management of ‘open spaces.‘ The definition of what is to be considered an ’open space’ has sparked some heated exchanges between those directing the planning meetings and citizens who want private property rights to be respected and protected. (The East Bay Tea Party video featuring a Liberal Democrat arguing against ICLEI can be seen at the end of this article.)

This type of global plan could not be implemented without a large and well-funded group pushing through its priorities. For that, Agenda 21 has the International Council of Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). And ICLEI is deeply entrenched in America;

ICLEI USA was launched in 1995 and has grown from a handful of local governments participating in a pilot project to a solid network of more than 600 cities, towns and counties actively striving to achieve tangible reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and create more sustainable communities. ICLEI USA is the domestic leader on climate protection and adaptation, and sustainable development at the local government level.

Over six hundred cities,towns and counties in America are members of ICLEI? Do you support your local government agreeing to rules and regulations set up by a UN-based organization that wants private property transferred to government control? If you would like to see if your community is a member of ICLEI, you can visit their website.

Austin, Texas is one city that seems to have fallen for the ICLEI/Agenda 21 and was heavily consuming the ‘Communitariasm’ Kool-aid.

A local group called Texans For Accountable Government saw what was happening and attempted to stop the Austin City Council from adopting some Agenda 21-friendly initiatives. One of TAG’s members, John Bush, delivered a succinct presentation on ICLEI and Agenda 21 that was virtually ignored. Watch his short argument against the proposed local law immediately followed by the lopsided vote adopting the plan.

In the world of business Agenda 21 is not a free market friend, preferring PPPs or Private Public Partnerships where the government decides which companies will receive tax breaks and are allowed to stay in business. In light of this realization, the cozy relationship between the current administration and GE (a company that paid no tax in 2010) should raise eyebrows. And the WH efforts to tell Boeing in which state they can operate seems to further bolster the belief that Agenda 21 ideals are already making headway in America.

The seeds for Agenda 21 were planted back in 1987 when the writings of Gro Harlem Brundtland (a woman who at the time was Vice President of the World Socialist Party) caught the eye of the UN.  Dr. Brundtland wrote a report for the UN called, ‘Our Common Future’ eventually got into the business of environmentalism as a tool to control all the people of the world and establish a global government. The growth of ICLEI and the framework being put in place by supporters of Agenda 21 appear to be bringing Dr. Brundtland’s ideas closer to reality

In recent months, citizen groups across the country have organized and become involved in the removal of towns and cities from membership in ICLEI. The Roanoke, VA Tea Party is holding a rally this week in an effort to have ICLEI removed from their local government.

For a better understanding of Agenda 21 and ICLEI we suggest: The American Policy Center offers a one-page primer on Agenda 21.

From the Bay Area Tea Party we offer a long-form video covering Agenda 21:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEHWsdimVO4&feature=player_embedded

The featured speaker at the Tea Party meeting, Rosa Koire, is a liberal Democrat who understands that Agenda 21 will destroy America as we know it. Rosa’s website, DemocratsAgainstAgenda21.com is also worth a visit.

H/T to the tireless members of the SFBAY 9-12 organization for all of their information sharing on the topics of ICLEI and Agenda 21.”

Open Letter to Under/Unemployed Americans: Barack Obama Owes You an Apology!

Posted on The Heritage Foundation-On June 13, 2011:

“As President Barack Obama swung through North Carolina yesterday, he did all he could to show that he cares about the U.S. economy, its 9.1 percent unemployment rate, and the 13.9 million Americans who remain out of work. Well, that is, until he let a bit of honesty slip off his tongue.

During a meeting with his Jobs and Competitiveness Council—a group of CEOs the President created to give him advice on the economy—conversation turned to Obama’s $787 billion stimulus that promised to “create or save” 3.5 million new jobs by 2011 by pumping money into “shovel ready” jobs. Confronting the reality that his stimulus failed, thePresident quipped, “Shovel-ready was not as shovel-ready as we expected.” The council, led by GE’s Jeffrey Immelt, burst into laughter.

But for those millions of jobless Americans who have not seen the promise of Obama’s stimulus come to fruition, unemployment is no laughing matter. Still, though, that reality escapes those on the left who continue to cling to the notion that President Obama’s big government, Keynesian policies have succeeded despite all evidence to the contrary.

Case in point: On Sunday’s “Meet the Press,” host David Gregory confronted DNC chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz with the cold hard facts—unemployment is up 25 percent since President Obama’s inauguration day, the debt is up 35 percent, a gallon of gas is up 104 percent, and 59 percent of Americans disapprove of the President’s handling of the economy. Wasserman Schultz’s reply that, in all likelihood, is still spinning like a top two days later: ”We were able to, under President Obama’s leadership, turn this economy around.”

Obviously enough, the economy has not turned around. In a roundtable published by Barron’s magazine, 10 money managers and financial market experts were unanimous in their belief that slower economic growth is in store for the second half of 2011. Meanwhile, economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal say that the biggest risk to the U.S. economy’s recovery is a slowdown in hiring. On average, they expect the economy to add just 2.2 million jobs over the next year. And to make matters worse, Bill Gross of the Pimco investment firm told CNBC that the United States is in worse financial shape than Greece when its public debt is added to all the money owed to cover future liabilities in entitlement programs.

Or if you apply simple logic, if the economy had turned the corner, the President wouldn’t need to tour the country to convince America that down is up, night is day, and that he’s doing a great job getting people back to work.

In another bit of unintentional Obama economy comedy, the LA Times‘ Peter Nicholas laments today that “traditional tools to jolt the economy [are] largely exhausted or unavailable” to the President—more spending and tax cuts are off the table, he writes, because Congress is “concerned with reducing the federal debt.” Remember, though, that debt comes from spending, and it’s Obama’s reliance on spending that has helped put us where we are today. Heritage’s James Sherk and Rea Hederman, Jr., write:

The President responded to the recession with the stimulus, which massively expanded the size of government. President Obama now fiercely resists attempts to reduce spending and insists on dealing with the deficit by raising taxes on “the rich”—i.e., successful entrepreneurs and business owners. Increased government spending displaces private-sector business investment.

Other Obama policies that have made America’s economic picture worse include the President’s health care plan (which makes hiring new workers significantly more expensive, while leaving uncertainty over future costs); an increased effort to foist unionization on employers and employees; a refusal to submit trade agreements with South Korea, Colombia, and Panama (that would create new business opportunities, along with tens of thousands of jobs); and an opposition to increasing domestic energy production, which will leave Americans to grapple with high energy costs.

There are, in fact, things the President can do to help the economy get on the right track. As Sherk and Hederman note, it starts with opening the door for entrepreneurs and businesses to expand and create new jobs by lifting the stifling regulations and burdens that have been created in the past two years.

President Obama might want to joke about jobs or downplay his failures as mere “bumps on the road.” He might also like to blame America’s troubles on the previous Administration or “unease about the European fiscal situation.” The truth, though, is a different story, and rather than joking, downplaying, or blaming, it’s time for the President to get to work on fixing the problem.”

Semper Fi!

Jake

I was wondering this morning what is the greatest sin.  I wrote in Google search, “the greatest sin,”  and was brought to writer Brennan Manning, a Catholic priest.  Father Manning says the greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips and walk out of the door and deny him by their lifestyles. Father Manning takes the words right out of my mouth.

Jesus was not a Christian. He was not even a good Jew.  Jesus was crucified for going against his establishment.  After studying the Constitution, I went against the establishment. I had a bigger than life calling.  I didn’t connect it with Jesus at the time, but miracles took place in my life after I chose the Constitution and rejected the establishment. Whereas, if anything could go wrong, it did before my change. Say I to those of little faith, after I went on my own, when everything could easily have gone wrong, everything started going right.

America is in big financial trouble.  But why? We don’t know the underlying reason.  The greatest sin is objectivity.  It is against “Higher Law,” the background of constitutional law. We, individually, are not objective.  You can’t make us objective. We were created with the ability to cope on our own.  Indeed, we give lip service to the Constitution—leap from the Constitution to “for the good of all.” It makes absolutely no sense. The idea is in vogue that the intelligentsia knows what is better for all.

The Constitution rejects the notion of government entitlement. I recall that Senator Reed won his seat back by being for government entitlement—beat the Tea Party candidate.  The Tea Party candidate, Sharon Angle,  was for privatizing Social Security. The majority thinks the idea nutty. Everyone running for office at this time is dealing with the symptoms and avoiding the cure for the problem they caused. Akin to black slavery, this we have is tax slavery.  And who but America’s blacks are the most dependent on government entitlements? 

I’m for Herman Cain for president. I hope my message gets to him.  With his understanding of free enterprise, he has a golden opportunity to bring blacks into the American dream. It is black against black. Against Cain's free enterprise stand, Obama has the chance of a snowball in hell of winning a second term.

Cain says it is God's will that he run. Catholic priest Manning teaches that the greatest accomplishment is me—the person I’ve become and who other persons are to become because of me.  Exactly!  It isn’t what I learned when I was a Christian, but it is what Jesus taught.  Manning says, “I cling to the God of my experience, whose love beggars belief.” I think Cain knows that. 

What do the American people know about life? Long before I found Father Manning, I found what he teaches is on target. The Constitution does not entitle anyone to government grants in aid.  It’s a Roosevelt ruse that has gone awry.  I’m a voice of experience. Government entitlement is someone’s sweat robbed from the owner and handed out to others for political gain. 

I hear over and over on the news that half of the American working people pay no tax on their income.  Don’t allow anyone to tell you the entry level worker with no deductions is not taxed in his income.  I know the black problem. When I was an entry level worker, my take home pay would not pay the rent on my one-room pad. I was locked out. Down the street was a mile-long line waiting to receive food stamps out of the money government took from my pay.  

The control freaks in charge of our lives, those telling you that half of the American working people pay no income tax, have you believing this lie.  Think about this. Half of America’s young blacks are unemployed.  They are far better to become involved in crime. it is our fault.  America elects people to public office, like Senator Reed, who are bankrupting America morally, spiritually, and fiscally. Let us give those black kids a break.  Jesus said that we should do to others as we would have them do to us.

Tea Party, come to the party! When people sell out their God-given rights and responsibilities the result is not a pretty picture.

Posted on NewsMax.com-By Reuters-On June 13, 2011:

“SEOUL - North Korea has probably succeeded in miniaturizing a nuclear device, South Korea’s defense minister said on Monday, an advance that would in theory allow the hermit state to place an atomic warhead on a rocket.

Regional powers have for years tried—with a mix of aid offers and punitive sanctions—in vain to stop Pyongyang pressing ahead with a nuclear weapons program it argues is a necessary defense against a hostile United States and South Korea with which it still has no peace treaty to formally end the 1950-53 Korean War.

Kim Kwan-jin offered no evidence to back his assertion but said the North had had enough time for such a development.

“It has been quite a while, enough time for them to have succeeded in miniaturization,” he told a parliamentary defense committee.

If true, it would mark a key advance in the North’s drive to develop a functioning nuclear weapon though that threat appears to be potential rather than actual.

It detonated nuclear devices in 2006 and 2009 but neither was considered by weapons experts to have been successful, though they say the impoverished state has enough fissile material for up to 10 nuclear weapons.

It is believed to be preparing a third test at a test site on its east coast.

The North has also been working, so far with little success, to build a missile capable of delivering a nuclear weapon across the Pacific, as far as the United States.

Talks with major powers on its nuclear weapons program have been on ice for more than two years though the North has signaled it wants them to resume.

However, both the United States and key allies South Korea and Japan have been reluctant to head back into negotiations which in the past have rewarded the North for little if anything in return.”

Where is the outrage? I,like many others, post blogs about the decay of American politicians or Obamas ridicules policies but where are the leaders of our Tea Party? WE need to unite in electing Candidates that will support the Constitution and place Americans first. Where is the outrage of out sourcing American jobs, allowing law breakers to infiltrate our boarders?It seems that rhetoric has crept into the Tea Party. Its easy to complain, I know I've been complaining since the last Presidential election, we need to UNITE in support of Candidates that will make the right choice and support US the AMERICAN populaces. We need a list of Candidates for not only Federal Elections but State and Local positions to succeed as an organization. Please give information on who and where the TEA PARTY can make a difference and what is needed to succeed. With the information at hand WE can take back the Government and eliminate the Socialists trying to steal America as we've know it. Instead of talking about the obvious it is time to organize against the obvious. Those who have the organization and support team should now disseminate the information about leaders we can get on board with and start the fight now, today, not in the last daysof the battle. Send information to the Tea Party members and we will make the difference and stop this Hope and Change folly.

What’s wrong with this picture?

Posted on RenewAmerica-By Wes Vernon-On June 13, 2011:

“If you have been depending on the mainstream media for your news the past few days, you are probably learning here for the first time that CIA Director Leon Panetta has been called out for his links to an important open member of the Communist Party.

Some background:

When this writer first arrived in Washington, D.C., as a reporter in 1968, one of my assignments was to cover the congressional delegation from Washington State.

Occasionally, both Democrat and Republican members of Congress from the Evergreen State would obliquely mention the name of Hugh DeLacy — either with a knowing snicker or muffled sound of disapproval.

It was as if they were shamefacedly acknowledging their state’s dirty little secret.

This much I gathered: Hugh DeLacy was a Communist who entered Democrat politics in Seattle and served in Congress, later to be defeated because of his pro-Red affiliations.

That name — stashed away for years in a reporter’s mental file — re-emerged in 2011 when (not for the first time) intrepid researchers did the work the mainstream media should have been doing.

It seems that the late Communist Hugh DeLacy and the man who now heads this nation’s spy agency were good buddies.

An oldie in the files re-emerges:

Although hearings were held last Thursday on Panetta’s nomination (by President Obama) to become Secretary of Defense, not one word appeared in any major newspaper or TV news channel about the allegations.

The June 9 morning hearings by the Senate Armed Services Committee did not elicit any mention of the newly revealed information of the Panetta/DeLacy connection. That afternoon, the senators scheduled an executive session behind closed doors. No information as to whether the issue was brought up then.

Documentation:

Researchers Trevor Loudon and Cliff Kincaid have documented the following:

Director Panetta for years maintained a friendly relationship with the late Hugh DeLacy. One “Dear Hugh” letter from then-Rep. Leon Panetta (D-Calif.) in 1977 offered a summary of a report on U.S. military operations, which, according to Panetta, was “unavailable for distribution.”

In his conclusion, Panetta writes, “If there is anything I can do for you in the future, Hugh, please feel free to call on me.” This “Dear Hugh” business did not appear to be a routine ingratiating courtesy on the part of a politician to a constituent (DeLacy later lived in Santa Cruz, California). When DeLacy passed away in 1986, Congressman Panetta spoke at his memorial service.

In 1983, Mr. Panetta paid tribute to DeLacy and his wife and entered it into the Congressional Record. “The causes for which they have dedicated their lives [including] a halt to the dangerous arms race — are causes for which we are still working today,” intoned Congressman Panetta.

"Dear Hugh's" real activism:

In an obituary on DeLacy, the Los Angeles Times stated, “In 1954, he [DeLacy] invoked the Fifth Amendment when asked by the House Un-American Activities Committee if he was or ever had been a Communist.”

Two years later, the House committee heard testimony from Barbara Hartle, a former Communist who had resigned and renounced her membership in the Party and since then had shared information with the FBI and other authorities in their efforts to combat the Communist conspiracy. Said she:

“I had attempted to break contact with the Communist Party in the underground on the wrong assumption that if I broke contact that they would leave me alone.” Instead, Hartle testified under oath, she was then “pursued by the Communist Party in the persons of its leaders, attempting to discipline me, attempting to bring me back into activity and responsibility.”

The harassment became so pervasive, Hartle added, that she concluded the Communist Party “was a gigantic hoax, that it has raised havoc with my life, that it was a danger to the country.”

House Committee Staff Director Richard Arens then asked the witness to “tell this committee while you are under oath, the names of any persons to your certain knowledge, who were Communists and officers or leaders of the Northwest Committee for the Protection of the Foreign Born [a Communist front].”

Mrs. Hartle: Hugh DeLacy.

Mr. Arens: And by the way, if it is agreeable with you, give us just a comment about the individual, what you know about him.

Mrs. Hartle: Hugh DeLacy was at one time president of the Washington Commonwealth Federation of the state of Washington, was one time a Congressman from the First District of the state of Washington [for one term, 1945-47].”

Mr. Arens: And Mr. Chairman [Rep. Clyde Doyle D-Calif. was chairing the hearing], I think it would not be inappropriate that in anticipation of our [planned] hearings in Ohio, we made a vigorous search for Hugh DeLacy in order to subpoena him. Our best information is that he has been dodging the subpoena.

Communist-backed candidate:

The lead in the L.A. Times obit identified DeLacy as “a Founder of the Progressive Party that nominated Henry Wallace for President in 1948.”

That party was organized and dominated by the Communist Party. Wallace himself admitted later in life that he had been duped and used. Christopher Andrew, a University of Cambridge historian — working with evidence in the Mitrokhin Archive — has stated publicly that he believed Wallace was a KGB agent.

From the Loudon/Kincaid files:

Panetta — as a member of Congress — and DeLacy — as a street activist — shared an affinity for communist scoundrels in Latin America.

While DeLacy visited Nicaragua and paid tribute to its communist Sandinista regime, Panetta — on Capitol Hill — fought President Reagan’s efforts to undermine the Sandinista Moscow puppets.

Leon Panetta, as the Loudon/Kincaid files show, collaborated with the Institute for Policy Studies, a think tank that promoted the Chilean Marxist and Cuban Intelligence agent Orlando Letelier who conducted Communist political operations in Washington. (See this writer AIM Report — “Robert Novak Versus the Media Establishment,” Sept. 18, 2007)

And there's more:

The California Senate Fact-Finding Committee on Un-American Activities named Hugh DeLacy as having been associated with the American Peace Mobilization Committee. That front was organized during the Hitler-Stalin pact to “sabotage our national defense program,” culminating in a “mass picket line around the White House” until shortly before Nazi Germany turned on its erstwhile ally, the Soviet Union — at which point, the U.S. Reds suddenly became “great patriots” for FDR’s “waw effaht.”

Add to all the above the fact that DeLacy was not only a prominent member of the Communist Party USA, but also a personal contact of identified Soviet spies Solomon Adler and Frank Coe and accused spy John Stewart Service, and one has to wonder: What was there about DeLacy’s background and record that attracted the friendship of the man who is now CIA Director and has been nominated to assume an even higher national security post — Secretary of Defense?

The late columnist Robert Novak told me that he had learned shortly after arriving in Washington in the fifties that the press corps had imposed a “self-censorship” in ignoring certain stories — that among these were congressional investigations of Communist influence in our society. He added this de facto “cartel” turned a blind eye to “a lot” that was “still” going on even then (at the time of our 2007 interview).

Beyond that, the question persists in 2011: Why have the media — even some non-liberal ones — not followed up on the information that the man who heads our premiere spy/counterspy agency was a good friend of a Communist Party member?

Only a few websites — including this one — have paid attention to the story.

If Panetta’s nomination for Secretary of Defense makes it through the Senate Armed Services Committee — and barring indications to the contrary, it would appear “the skids are greased” — then what? Is there not one conservative senator prepared to raise this issue on the floor when the confirmation is up for debate?

Not one? Why?

Our favorite restaurant fell by the way side and closed. Mary and I saw a new sign on the building and pulled our car at the entrance to see if they were open for business. The new owner, a middle aged Asian gentleman, rushed outside to greet us.

He said his grand opening was three weeks away. He then enthusiastically began promoting his new restaurant; explaining how it was going to be so much better than the previous restaurant. His passion was infectious. Mary and I left excited about giving his new venture a try.

I thought, this guy is what America is all about. Obama-nomics has wreaked havoc on small business. Still, this man is willing to take the risk and go for it.

Folks, I can not begin to tell you how much it “frost me” that Obama uses class envy to portray small business owners such as this restaurateur as selfish greedy bad guys.

The liberal mindset reasoning that “the boss” is always the bad guy baffles me. Approximately half of new small businesses fail within the first two years. With all of the silly and outrageous “nanny government” cost incurring regulations, the failure rate is rapidly increasing.

So, when a small business owner survives the maze of control freak intrusive regulations, meets payroll and all of the other challenges which come with being “the boss”, Obama believes it is evil for the business owner to take home a check much larger than his “workers”.

Well excuse me Mr. President, but the boss took the risk, providing employment for employees who can simply punch out at five o'clock and forget about the business until the next day. The boss, perceived by liberals to be selfish, greedy and “evil”, is mentally, physically or emotionally engaged with his business 24/7.

A liberal posted on my facebook wall, “You conservative Christians forget that Jesus was a socialist.” Apparently, this person is unfamiliar with Jesus' Parable of the Talents.

Condensing the story, a master left town leaving three servants with talents (money); one with five talents, another with two talents and the third he entrusted with one talent; each according to his ability.

The servants with the five and two talents invested and doubled their master's money. Upon his return, the master was extremely pleased and greatly rewarded them.

The third servant, probably an Obama voter, was fearful of taking a risk and buried the master's one talent. Upon his return, the master was furious with his servant calling him wicked and lazy. Yep, sounds like an Obama voter to me.

If Obama was the master, he would have scolded the two risk taking servants accusing them of being selfish and greedy. How dare his successful two servants double their talents and not redistribute them equally with the “wicked lazy” servant.

Answering as he did to Joe the Plumber, Master Obama would say, “I think it is only fair that we spread the wealth around”.

Obama is a master of deception, speaking out of both sides of his mouth. While promising to implement policies which strengthen small business, Obama continues to create policies destructive to business. Is Obama “clueless” in regards to economics? No. Obama is a big government socialist fulfilling his vow to “fundamentally transform” America.

Small business has been the backbone of America employing most Americans. Under Obama, this reality is changing. The private sector is shrinking while people working for the government continues to grow as if on steroids.

I would like to share excerpts from a book by small business owner, Dwayne B. Stovall titled, “Growing Up Colorless: Race, Media and Government”.

“...For many years now, I have awakened every morning without the use of an alarm. The fear of failure is all a person needs to lose the ability to sleep.

Stress is like most chronic pain.

Come Monday, you still have to get up and make sure you don't do something that destroys your business and hurts your family or hurts the people that work for you and their families.

Like every other contractor in my industry, I give away 2 to 3 percent of every contract to an insurance company for bonding. Add to that the general liability, workers compensation, various commercial insurance policies, and all the taxes we are forced to pay and you can see how we start every year hundreds of thousands of dollars in the hole....”

So Mr Obama, enough with your despicable nonsensical self serving rhetoric saying those who are fortunate (lucky) should be willing to give a little more to support those who are “less fortunate”. You are shamelessly exploiting “class envy” to expand your voter base of deadbeats sitting around expecting handouts from your “stash”.

I know it is silly to wish my life away, but COME ON 2012! The American entrepreneurial spirit can not survive much more of a president who inspires divisiveness and hatred for achievers.

IT HAPPENS EVERY FRIDAY! Were you aware?
Mornings at the Pentagon

By JOSEPH L. GALLOWAY
McClatchy Newspapers

Over the last 12 months, 1,042 soldiers, Marines,This week, I'm turning my space over to a good friend and former roommate, Army Lt. Col. Robert Bateman, who recently completed a yearlong tour of duty in Iraq and is now back at the Pentagon.

Here's Lt. Col. Bateman's account of a little-known ceremony that fills the halls of the Army corridor of the Pentagon
with cheers, applause and many tears every Friday morning. It first appeared on May 17 on the Weblog of media critic and pundit Eric Alterman at the Media Matters for America Website.

"It is 110 yards from the "E" ring to the "A" ring of the Pentagon. This section of the Pentagon is newly renovated; the floors shine, the hallway is broad, and the lighting is bright. At this instant the entire length of the corridor is packed with officers, a few sergeants and some civilians, all crammed tightly three and four deep against the walls.

This hallway, more than any other, is the `Army' hallway. The G3 offices line one side, G2 the other, G8 is around the corner. All Army! Moderate conversations flow in a low buzz. Friends, who may not have seen each other for a few weeks, or a few years, spot each other, cross the way and renew.

Everyone shifts to ensure an open path remains down the center. The air conditioning system was not designed for this press of bodies in this area.

The temperature is rising already. Nobody cares. "10:36 hours: The clapping starts at the E-Ring. That is the outermost of the five rings of the Pentagon and it is closest to the entrance to the building. This clapping is low, sustained and hearty. It is applause with a deep emotion behind it as it moves forward in a wave down the length of the hallway.

"A steady rolling wave of sound it is, moving at the pace of the soldier in the wheelchair who marks the forward edge with his presence. He is the first. He is missing the greater part of one leg, and some of his wounds are still suppurating. By his age I expect that he is a private, or perhaps a private first class.

"Captains, majors, lieutenant colonels and colonels meet his gaze and nod as they applaud, soldier to soldier. Three years ago when I described one of these events, those lining the hallways were somewhat different. The applause a little more wilder perhaps in private guilt for not having shared in the burden ... Yet.

"Now almost everyone lining the hallway is, like the man in the wheelchair, also a combat veteran. This steadies the applause, but I think deepens the sentiment. We have all been there now. The soldier's chair is pushed by, a full colonel.

"Behind him, and stretching the length from Rings E to A, come more of his peers, each private, corporal, or sergeant assisted as need be by a field grade officer.

"11:00 hours: Twenty-four minutes of steady applause. My hands hurt, and I laugh to myself at how stupid that sounds in my own head. My hands hurt. Please! Shut up and clap. For twenty-four minutes, soldier after soldier has come down this hallway - 20, 25, 30. Fifty-three legs come with them, and perhaps only 52 hands or arms, but down this hall came 30 solid hearts.

They pass down this corridor of officers and applause, and then meet for a private lunch, at which they are the guests of honor, hosted by the generals. Some are wheeled along. Some insist upon getting out of their chairs, to march as best they can with their chin held up, down this hallway, through this most unique audience. Some are catching handshakes and smiling like a politician at a Fourth of July parade. More than a couple of them seem amazed and are smiling shyly.

"There are families with them as well: the 18-year-old war-bride pushing her 19-year-old husband's wheelchair and not quite understanding why her husband is so affected by this, the boy she grew up with, now a man, who had never shed a tear is crying; the older immigrant Latino parents who have, perhaps more than their wounded mid-20s son, an appreciation for the emotion given on their son's behalf. No man in that hallway, walking or clapping, is ashamed by the silent tears on more than a few cheeks. An Airborne Ranger wipes his eyes only to better see. A couple of the officers in this crowd have themselves been a part of this parade in the past.

These are our men, broken in body they may be, but they are our brothers, and we welcome them home. This parade has gone on, every single Friday, all year long, for more than four years.

"Did you know that?

I'm not a real big fan of debates but the GOP debates in New Hampshire have been a good showcase of Conservative thought.  We don't have a perfect candidate, and we will never will.  But the combination of Constitutional conservatism, economic savvy, historical context, and fresh Patriotic fervor is like a symposium on the role of government, and what it means to have faith in freedom and the free market.

Pawlenty seems a little stiff.  Newt is still a great intellect and, although he will hang up his campaign coat soon, adds a comprehensive understanding of aspects of American government.  Romney is a little redundant, rehashing many of his recent speeches.  But he appears to be the solid "fix the economy" candidate.  Michelle Bachmann looks strong.  I would like to hear more from her.  Santorum is passionate and unwavering, a fresh face.  Herman Cain is an audacious advocate for capitalism.  He has a certain "elder statesman" quality.  He is the experienced one in the house.  Cain has detailed ideas plans to answer the questions about Obamacare, Medicare insolvency, and jobs creation.  Cain is unequivocal about his opposition to allowing Sharia law to influence American law. 

The audience seems very in tune with the economic issues.  The debt limit is being discussed in-depth.  Every one of the GOP contenders has something to offer.  And as Mitt Romney has asserted several times, "Obama has no plan."  I feel proud as I watch this.  This, as I said, is an imperfect field.  There are a range of ideologies among the GOP candidates.  But the quality of the debate has risen out of pop-culture, sound bites, and mainstream media news flashes.  These candidates are debating with a depth of Constitutional knowledge that a few years ago was not present.  

I give credit to the Tea Party for pulling our candidates back in the direction of our founding roots.  I hope Americans, young and old alike, watch this and other upcoming debates.  The GOP candidates are giving us a good education about limited government and its enumerated roles in the Constitution.

Posted on The Blaze-By Scott Baker-On June 12, 2011:

“Zero Hedge:

Courtesy of the recently declassified Fed discount window documents, we now know that the biggest beneficiaries of the Fed’s generosity during the peak of the credit crisis were foreign banks, among which Belgium’s Dexia was the most troubled, and thus most lent to, bank.

Having been thus exposed, many speculated that going forward the US central bank would primarily focus its “rescue”efforts on US banks, not US-based (or local branches) of foreign (read European) banks: after all that’s what the ECB is for, while the Fed’s role is to stimulate US employment and to keep US inflation modest.

And furthermore, should the ECB need to bail out its banks, it could simply do what the Fed does, and monetize debt, thus boosting its assets, while concurrently expanding its excess reserves thus generating fungible capital which would go to European banks. Wrong.

Below we present that not only has the Fed’s bailout of foreign banks not terminated with the drop in discount window borrowings or the unwind of the Primary Dealer Credit Facility, but that the only beneficiary of the reserves generated were US-based branches of foreign banks (which in turn turned around and funnelled the cash back to their domestic branches), a shocking finding which explains not only why US banks have been unwilling and, far more importantly, unable to lend out these reserves, but that anyone retaining hopes that with the end of QE2 the reserves that hypothetically had been accumulated at US banks would be flipped to purchase Treasurys, has been dead wrong, therefore making the case for QE3 a done deal.

In summary, instead of doing everything in its power to stimulate reserve, and thus cash, accumulation at domestic (US) banks which would in turn encourage lending to US borrowers, the Fed has been conducting yet another stealthy foreign bank rescue operation, which rerouted $600 billion in capital from potential borrowers to insolvent foreign financial institutions in the past 7 months. QE2 was nothing more (or less) than another European bank rescue operation!

For those who can’t wait for the punchline, here it is. Below we chart the total cash holdings of Foreign-related banks in the US using weekly H.8 data.

Posted on WND.com-By Bob Unruh-On June 12, 2011:

“A backlash has begun against an Indiana Supreme Court ruling that homeowners have no right to resist a police officer’s illegal entry but can argue it later in court.

State lawmakers are seeking a change in the state statutes and asking the court to make the judges fix the problem themselves.

A constitutional expert contends the moves are needed, because the court’s arguments essentially are the same as the idea that “someone can’t use a firearm to protect himself from someone who is threatening to kill him.”

A later argument over such use of a firearm might very well be of no help to the person who wanted to protect himself, the expert, Herb Titus of William J. Olson, P.C., Attorneys at Law, told WND today.

“He might be dead.”

According to local reports when the ruling was released last month, the state Supreme Court concluded that “allowing resistance [to an illegal police entry] unnecessarily escalates the level of violence and therefore the risk of injuries to all parties involved without preventing the arrest.”

The panel, in a 3-2 vote, said that people who are victimized by police entering their homes illegally must not resist but instead could pursue a complaint later in the court system.

The case originated with police officers who responded to a report of a domestic dispute outside of a home. When the officers wanted to follow the man into his home, he resisted, and they shot him with a Taser and arrested him.

“Although some state legislatures have abrogated the common law right to resist arrest, Indiana has not,” explains a friend-of-the-court brief filed by dozens of state lawmakers. “The right to resist arrested in the streets is quite different from the right to resist unlawful entry into one’s home – for arrest, investigation, or any other purpose.”

The brief, asking the state Supreme Court to rehear the case, said, “The public policy of this state, as embodied in the 2006 legislation, has been to grant our citizens greater autonomy to protect themselves from unlawful incursions into their homes.”

According to the brief, the state in 2006 specifically adopted a law that explains a person is justified in using “reasonable force, including deadly force, against another person: and does not have a duty to retreat; if the person reasonably believes that the force is necessary to prevent or terminate the other person’s unlawful entry of or attack on the person’s dwelling, curtilage, or occupied motor vehicle.”

“Any rule that encourages ‘immediate surrender’ whenever a person hears the word ‘police!’ or sees a badge could expose citizens to a great risk of harm. …

For example, a serial killer in Pennsylvania used a police disguise to gain entry into a home where he raped and strangled a woman, and men claiming to be narcotics agents in Alabama kicked in a door and stole money ... after hitting the occupant on the head.

“These headlines need not be replicated in Indiana. Rather, granting rehearing is appropriate to narrow this court’s holding and apprise our citizens that they retain the venerable right to reasonably resist unlawful entry into their homes by police.”

State Sen. Mike Young, who played a key role in getting the 71 lawmakers together on the brief, also confirmed that he will craft legislation to respond to the court’s ruling.

At the time, Young noted the judges “overturned a basic common law that dates back to the English Magna Carta nearly 800 years ago. This flies in the face of our 4^th Amendment right in the U.S. Constitution, protecting us against unreasonable search and seizure.”

“When someone enters your home illegally at 3 a.m., your first thought is not what court will have jurisdiction, but, rather, what do I need to do to protect my family,” Young said.

“Few issues before this court have galvanized the public’s attention and concern as much as the declaration in this case that the right to reasonably resist an unlawful police entry into a home is no longer recognized under Indiana law,” Young said. “Rehearing is appropriate to reconsider that holding in light of Indiana’s robust self-defense statute.”

But Justice Steven David wrote for the court that if a police officer decides to enter a home – for any reason or no reason at all – a homeowner cannot do anything the stop him.

Even state Attorney General Greg Zoeller, who argued the winning side in the state Supreme Court case, endorsed the idea of a rehearing.

“In supporting a rehearing, the state will continue to argue that [the] convictions should be upheld, but on more narrow grounds. We contend that under the circumstances, the police entry of [the] residence was legal: The officers responding to the 911 call sought to avoid leaving the alleged victim with the defendant after a confrontation outside. So while there is no right to commit battery with police, I believe the individual has the right to shut the door, stand his ground and communicate with police without engaging in an altercation. In balancing the perils of domestic violence with respect to law enforcement, I will continue to advise our police clients to respect people’s Fourth Amendment rights.”

Titus told WND that the court’s move is symptomatic of the moves in U.S. courts to weaken the principle of private property.

“We [recently] filed a brief in the U.S. Supreme Court in another case involving GPS searches,” he said. “And in our brief we urged the court to return to the original meaning of the 4^th Amendment, which is based on property as contrasted to privacy.”

“The Indiana court openly stated that they were reversing something that has been in the common law for centuries. … A lot of people have forgotten why the amendment is in the Constitution. It was designed if you own your house, the property is a barrier to keep the government out.”

When courts substitute “privacy” for “property,” however, it can mean anything, he noted.

He explained that over history the government had to show a “superior property interest” before searches could happen. In the Indiana case, he said, the entry “completely disregards the sanctity of the home. It disregards the property interest that serves as a barrier to government intrusion.”

He said while that is “divorced” from constitutional foundations, it is the argument judges use in current cases.

They act, he said, by the dictates of what they believe should happen.

“This comes as part of the evolution of law,” he said. “They believe the law is changing to meet changes in society. The law becomes an instrument in the hands of the courts or the hands of some other government official to achieve whatever it is they want.

“They live in a world in which they presume that the rules governing them are mere constructs, instruments that a ruling class has decided to be what they want to happen, what they think. There aren’t any fixed rules.”

WND columnist Nat Henthoff, an authority on the First Amendment and Bill of Rights, said there are other recent cases in which the 4^th Amendment has come under fire.

“On May 16, 2011, in these United States, eight justices, apparently unaware of the deep roots the Fourth Amendment has in our history, ruled in Kentucky v. King – as warned in the interpretation of the lone dissenter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg – to suspend the Fourth Amendment,” he wrote. “How ‘secure’ do our homes remain if police, armed with no warrant, can pound on doors at will and, on hearing sounds indicative of things moving, forcibly enter and search for evidence of unlawful activity?”

He explained that Lexington, Ky., case involved police who suspected there was a drug operation in an apartment.

“They went to the wrong apartment. But outside that apartment, they smelled marijuana, knocked hard, announced who they were and at that point heard noises coming from inside the apartment. What could these sounds be caused by? Evidence being destroyed, the police believed, but without actual proof,” he wrote.

“In view of the marijuana smell and what they suspected, they could have easily obtained a warrant. Judges are very accommodating in this context. But the police roared they were going in and knocked down the door,” he explained.

The federal government also has been accused of violating the 4^th Amendment’s protections in its new procedures to take virtually nude body images of airline travelers, or subject them to physical pat-downs critics have likened to public sexual assaults.

There are a number of legal challenges continuing to the procedures.”

Freedom’s Phoenix

From the ashes of decline, shall rise, a great phoenix

On the wings of American exceptionalism

A symbol of  “We the people”, republicanism

The founding fathers in their wisdom did greatly fear

Two very dangerous things, that more than any other,

A standing army or central bank, liberty would smother

The Constitution, Article 1 and the laws of the land

Were intended to protect the people from being ripped off

In refusing to be audited, the Fed and Pentagon do scoff

The earmarks flourish, while our Liberty shrivels

For the power and the glory of a Capitol hill few

Who blindly throw our money in the pot, as if, fixing a stew

We have a standing Army, in spite of our founders fear

It has its own air force, as does the Navy and its army, the Marines

All in addition to the US Air Force, flying must be in the genes

The Pentagon has bases galore and on nearly every shore

Duplicative programs abound, as the branches trust not each other

If this, be the case, why should we people trust one branch or another?

We spend nearly as much on defense as the rest of the world combined

Yet our weapons systems are aging and our troops often do suffer

As the sheer size of the DOD bureaucracy, our success does buffer

Put the Pentagon under scrutiny, to trim the waste, and unnecessary spending

Before financial calamity doth spark a round of indiscriminate cuts

Our security put at risk, by the unwitting in Congress or those without guts

We have a great Central Bank that we all know as “the Fed”

We know not what they do, for they report not to Congress

Operating audit free, cronyism run amok, part of the mess

They are printing new money at an alarming rate

We know not to whom they give it, only who they come to,

“We the people”, whenever, the piper’s bill doth come due.

As the founders feared, unchecked, our government has grown too big

Big enough to give to some, everything that they want and need

Big enough to take from others, all they have, down to the seed

There is a movement afoot, across this great land

To spread the light of truth and fiscal awareness

By bringing to bear, transparency, audits and fairness

It is a movement born of the spirit, the heart and soul of our great Nation

Men and women uniting with purpose, Liberty’s flame burning, in their heart

Restoring pride, honor and moral bearing that our nation, be not, torn apart

Won’t you please read, and join us in signing, the Pentagon Petition

Demanding of the Congress, fair and orderly cuts in the spending

Bringing all departments to the table and leaving no sacred cows pending

If you have had enough and are tired of watching your Country decline

Join the ranks of the patriots who are uniting and working together

To see our Republic flourish once more and our exceptionalism un-tether.

“Report: US gives Netanyahu ultimatum on resuming talks.

Israel Radio Reported Sunday that The United States gave Netanyahu an ultimatum on renewing negotiations with the Palestinians.

According to the ultimatum, Netanyahu has to decide within a month whether he agrees to accept US President Obama’s proposal and resume talks based on 1967 lines.

Washington is pressuring Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to accede to its proposal to resume Israeli-Palestinian peace talks on the basis of U.S. President Barack Obama’s May 19 speech.

An Israeli source who spoke recently with senior officials in Washington said the Americans were very frustrated with Netanyahu’s behavior, feeling that he was impeding America’s efforts to keep the Palestinians from unilaterally seeking UN recognition of a state in September.

Netanyahu’s personal envoy, Isaac Molho, spent last week in Washington, where the Americans presented their proposal for resuming talks on the basis of Obama’s speech. Specifically, Obama’s plan calls for negotiating over borders and security first, while deferring issues such as Jerusalem and the refugees until later. It also calls for the borders to be based on the 1967 lines, with mutually agreed land swaps.

The Americans told Molho that to block European initiatives such as France’s proposal for an international peace conference in Paris, they must have something concrete to offer, like Netanyahu‘s agreement to negotiate on the basis of Obama’s speech.

The U.S. proposal was also given to chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat, who said the Palestinians would resume talks on this basis.

Meanwhile, a European diplomat who was briefed on Molho’s talks in Washington said they were fruitless. “The Americans didn’t get anything new from Molho,” the diplomat said.

This week, American diplomat David Hale will arrive in Israel to hold further meetings with both Molho and Erekat. Hale is temporarily replacing George Mitchell, the U.S. special envoy who resigned earlier this year.

An Israeli source who maintains close ties with both senior U.S. officials and people close to Netanyahu said that Washington‘s frustration began with Netanyahu’s trip to Washington last month, when he publicly fought with Obama and then refused in an address to Congress to endorse the president’s outline for talks. The Americans were now speaking very harshly of Netanyahu, said the source.

“He’s asking us to protect him in September, but he isn’t giving us any tools with which to help him,” the source quoted one American official as saying. “Instead of helping us, he’s making it harder for us.”

As a result, American officials complained, Obama was unable to get Britain and France to commit to opposing a unilateral Palestinian move when he visited Europe last month.

“The Americans need Israel inside, but Netanyahu isn’t there yet,” the source said. “To date, from the American and European perspective, Israel hasn’t given anything.”

European diplomats said Netanyahu’s speech to Congress was viewed in Europe as one long “no” and had thus increased European distrust of him. “We want to hear Netanyahu say he‘s willing to negotiate on the basis of Obama’s speech and that he’ll discuss borders based on the 1967 lines with land swaps,” said one diplomat.

Since the barren talks with Molho last week, the White House has been upping the pressure on Netanyahu.

On Friday, Steve Simon, who heads the U.S. National Security Council’s Middle East desk, told American Jewish leaders that Netanyahu needs to reply within a month to the U.S. proposal for restarting talks.

The White House knew this remark would both be conveyed to Netanyahu and leaked to the American and Israeli press, thus making its displeasure public.”

Posted on CNSNews.com-By Matt Cover-On June 13, 2011:

“(CNSNews.com) - CIA Director Leon Panetta, who President Barack Obama has nominated to be secretary of Defense, told the Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday that he believes the president can unilaterally use military force, without congressional authorization to “protect our national interests.”

Panetta’s claim of broad unilateral presidential power to initiate U.S. military action absent an attack or imminent threat to the United States came in response to a question from Sen. John McCain—who said he agreed with Panetta.

The U.S. is now involved militarily in Libya even though Congress has never authorized that involvement.

“Does it worry you if the Congress begins to tell the commander in chief as to exactly … what the president can or cannot do in any conflict?” asked McCain.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOr8VraYnEU&feature=player_embedded

“Senator, I believe very strongly that the president has the constitutional power as commander in chief to take steps that he believes are necessary to protect this country and protect our national interests,” said Panetta. “And obviously, I think it’s important for presidents to consult, to have the advice of Congress. But in the end, I believe he has the constitutional power to do what he has to do to protect this country.”

Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution says Congress “shall have Power … to declare War, grant letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make rules concerning Captures on Land and Water.”  At the constitutional convention in 1787, James Madison of Virginia and Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts proposed that the word “declare” war be inserted in place of “make” war in this passage so that it would leave the president the limited power to “repel sudden attacks.”  Madison’s proposal was adopted.

Madison notes from the Constitutional Convention clearly indicate that the drafters of the Constitution meant to deny the president the power to initiate military action by the United States except when necessary for self-defense.

“The Executive should be able to repel and not to commence war.”

President Barack Obama expressed this same interpretation when he was a presidential candidate. On Dec. 20, 2008, he told the Boston Globe: “The president does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation.”

However, with the ongoing Libyan operation, President Obama has maintained that he does not need explicit congressional authorization because he has sufficient authority as commander-in-chief to attack Libya, even though he admits that Libya did not attack the United States nor did it pose any direct military threat.

Instead, Obama contends that the civil war currently underway there threatens regional stability and thus endanger U.S. national interests in the region. Obama also contends that his administration has sufficiently consulted with Congress by briefing key members on the details of the operation, arguing that in doing so he has secured congressional consent for the attacks.

Sen. Jim Webb (D-Va.) told Panetta that while there was no question about the president’s authority to defend the country in case of an attack or to fulfill treaty obligations, a “unilateral” military decision such as Obama’s attacks on Libya “needs to be subject to the review and direction of the Congress.”

Panetta said it was “very important” for the president to consult with Congress after he takes military action, saying that“hopefully” Congress will agree that military action is necessary.

“[O]nce those [military] decisions are made, in order for those decisions to be sustained,  that it’s very important to work with the  Congress and seek the best advice and counsel of the Congress and hopefully get the Congress’ support for those actions,”said Panetta.

Critics of American involvement in the NATO-led attacks on Libya have argued that Obama lacks the constitutional authority to commit U.S. forces there, claiming that while the president is commander and chief, he must first seek congressional authorization before deploying any military forces, except in the case of an attack on the United States.”
