OBAMA- The Enemy From Within

Obama has the power to close the border and as president it is his job to do it, but I’m like most Americans, we know that he never will and In fact, he refuses to close the border. Any president this country ever had would have done that. At least to some degree. But he does nothing There is nothing in Obama's $3.7 billion request that secures our border and stops the illegals from crossing. "The American people must understand that this flood of illegals coming across our border is a crisis and Obama is the cause. This President's lawless action, such as DACA have caused this severe problem. By his actions he has clearly demonstrated to the American people that he is not bound or compelled by the Constitution or our great nation and will not take seriously his obligation, as president, to defend the United States borders. Why is that? It is part of his transformation process that will destroy this country.

"This crisis is destroying our communities and putting the burden on American taxpayers.  Right now there is an enticement for illegals to continue to pour across our border. It is called free stuff such as food, medical care, free housing, social security benefits all payed for by the tax payers and delivered to them by Mr. Obama. The only way to discourage and stop them is to seal our borders and send them back to where they come from. The best way to do this is for the Governors call up their National Guard units to secure the border. We must put a stop to this problem. By doing this it also commits the United States House of Representatives to fund the states for the cost of securing the border and protect Americans from the onslaught of illegals. By doing this It would also recognize and defend the constitutional authority of any governor’s right to deploy the National Guard to secure the border and protects people.

"In order to resolve the crisis on our southern border, we need to strictly enforce our immigration laws - something the Obama administration has failed to do. Ask yourself this question; “Why would a president of this country, not protect our borders?”There is a reason and an answer for that. The destruction of America as we know it. Securing our borders and deporting individuals who have arrived illegally sends a clear message that such behavior will not be rewarded with citizenship,.

The border problem is just one of the many problems facing this country. But the biggest problem we are facing this country is another year and a half of Obama. Will we have a country left after his term in office is up. I have said this in another post and I, personally, believe it to be true; Obama is not for the black race, the white race, or any other race. He is not for America. He is for the destruction of America.

WHAT IS A NORMAL GOVERNMENT?

A normal government, in my opinion, is one with the best interests of its own citizens at heart. People who live here, work here, and pay taxes here. This is not what we are getting from Obama! A normal government would have taken immediate steps to put a stop to all the illegals coming across our southern border. They would immediately realize that these illegals cause a big threat to the public health and safety for the American people. I’m just a plain American citizen, just as most are, but I can plainly see that and so can most of the American people. A normal Government would set in motion the necessary efforts to keep more from coming across and start deportation to return these people to their own country. As reported on Fox news there is terrorist coming across with the illegals and we all know what that means, the possibility for another 9-11.

But we must all remember that the Obama administration is not a normal government. It is a government of lies, falsehoods, and deceiving the American public. He is not for the black race, the white race, or is he for any other race. He is not for the veteran or the Christian people in this country. He is for, and his goal is, the total destruction of America as we know it. He is a Muslim and we must remember that by everything he does.

Instead of Mr. Obama stopping these people at the border to our country he did everything in his power as president to help them. We have Border Patrol agents babysitting, we are unloading the illegals at military bases. The welcome mat is out from Obama and no matter what he says or has said they are here to stay. That is his goal. Why would I say this? The main reason is you cannot believe a word Obama says and just like I did Every American should look at the Department of Homeland Security notice that appeared six months ago at the federal business opportunities site www.FedBizOpps.gov.

The notice was seeking “Escort Services for Unaccompanied Alien Children,” describing exactly the services that was required to process, not deport, the huge flood of illegals. I would rather call it an invasion. The notice was posted back in Jan. 29, 2014. Read the article on this web site http://allenbwest.com/2014/06/feds-advertised-escort-services-unaccompanied-alien-children-january/ This tells me The Department of Homeland Security was already getting ready to receive these illegal children. My question is this How did The Department of Homeland Security know this? Something is being hidden in Washington, and it starts with the federal government and it goes right to the top with Obama.

The Department of Homeland notice states this in part; “(DHS) has “a continuing and mission critical responsibility for accepting custody of unaccompanied alien children from U.S. Border Patrol and other Federal agencies and transporting these juveniles to Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) shelters located throughout the continental United States.” What they are saying is these illegals are staying, at least if the Obama administration has its way. So please tell me what the reason is behind all this. They are not only letting in gangbangers and drug runners, but terrorist and diseases also. So what is the purpose behind all that?

According to the UAC services webpage of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the mission is to assist these minor illegal aliens “in becoming integrated members of our global society. ”Not our American” society. I do not know about you but there is a BIG difference there..

This explains why the Obama government is trying to do away with the small towns and the rural communities across this country, by dropping large groups of illegal aliens in their midst, all in the name of “compassion”. That is a joke because there is a bigger reason behind the whole thing.

Let me give you a example of how this is done and if you need more proof then research it as I did. The small town of Lawrenceville, in southern Virginia just this month over night woke up to find out that Washington was about to turn this town of 1,400 citizens into the host of 500 illegal minors.

Such a huge transfer of Spanish-speaking and illegals to boot, probably will change it forever. Then we must not forget the increase in crime and the possibility of diseases, but a grass roots movement by the people of that small town put a stop to it. From California to Massachusetts are doing the same thing because they are being over whelmed.

Some people (The resettlement crowd) saying where is the compassion. Where is all the love and charity? But is that what is really on their mind, charity and love? I do not think so! They want your tax dollar and mind to resettle more people. Different web sites will tell you that population replacement is a very big business. It is a big business because people like Obama want to “fundamentally” transform” this country

Southwest Key is a company, with an annual budget of more than $150 million, “most of this comes from federal government contracts.” (Now here is the point that I want to make, the chairman of Southwest Key’s board of directors, Victor Garza, is an official of La Raza, which works to reclaim the Southwest for Mexico. You’re paying for this with your tax dollars.

Look how he has alienated our allies. Look how he has cut our military forces and the list goes on and on. Obama and his cronies are destroying America from within and who knows where we will be at by the end of his term in the white house. The word he used in his campaign promises was transformation of this country, but he should have said the tearing apart of this country. Because that is exactly what he is doing and he knows it.

WHEN SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN

What an honor it has been for me and many other people to be an American, but the problem with me these past few years is the people in America are far from being who Americans really are and living by the precepts this country was founded on. It hurts me, and other Americans who believe in this country and how the founding fathers set it up, to see what is happening to our great nation. A nation that was founded one nation under God and the principles and laws found in God’s Holy Word.

In most places we are not be allowed to say a prayer at a public gathering, because we might offend someone. The truth is the people who do not want prayer as a part of their meetings should be more worried about offending our Creator. For He is the one who has blessed this country and made it work for over two hundred years. Now we offend people by saying the pledge of allegiance to our nation’s flag while illegal immigrants, in this country, display their nation’s flag and step all over ours. Prayer and any visual signs of our God are slowly being done away with. Only what we hide in our hearts will we be able to keep. The American people have been silent for too long.

The things that were once against the law are, in today’s world, now okay. It is now okay for the killing of millions of unborn babies, Homosexuals parading the streets, being married in churches, and in some cases standing behind the sacred desk. Americans may soon be able to choose to use either a men’s or a women’s bathroom when they go to a public place. Crosses are being taken off a lot of churches and they are now called campuses. We have a president that has said we are no longer a Christian nation. He said the constitution is flawed and out dated. It is time for Americans to wake up. They have been silent for too long.

It’s time to realize what is happening to our country. We need some powerful Americans (Godly Americans) in our government to begin to stand up for what the majority of the citizens want and believe in. As voters, we need to find out who they are and vote them into office. Don’t go along with elected officials just because they’ve been in office for a long time. They are part of the problem! Know who and what you are voting for.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

For a person to believe that our federal government will protect them from harm they have to be out of touch. The federal government cannot even protect its own people as we have all seen in the past few years at the border, Fort Hood, and the Benghazi massacre. The American people have more and more rights taken from them every year, but the right to own and protect  their self with a fire arm is at the top of the list.
"It is just irrational and not consistent for any government, such as the United States to say people have a right to life and a right to defend their selves but no right to own the necessary things to defend their lives and the lives of their loved ones. It does not add up when any government says its police have no responsibility and neither do they have a commitment to give individual protection and then deny people the means or rights to protect themselves.
Waiting for the police to come a life could be lost. It is morally wrong for a government such as the United States that repeatedly releases people who murder, steel, rape, and rob (Such as the 200 plus Mexican illegal's, the worst of the worst, that were released not long ago) to prey on people again and then to tell those victims of crimes and the American public they cannot have a weapon for self-defense. Who will protect the people from all the terrorist that want to see all Americans and all Christians dead? Who will protect us from criminals that already have guns? One thing is for sure we; the people cannot put any trust in the federal government to protect us.
The government and the president (Obama) do nothing to protect us. Our borders are wide open. Illegals are swarming across and all kinds of dangerous people come with them while the government does nothing. It’s brainless for a government, such as the United States that can’t control criminals, the border, drugs or illegals to claim it can take guns away from criminals only if honest folks will give up theirs. Never have I heard such dogma from people who claim to be our leaders and educated people. When you live in a country that you no longer feel safe in, it is time to re think the dogma the politicians are putting out about gun control.
Gun-control proposals and laws are an offense to main stream Americans. Gun control by meaning affects only honest and trust worthy people. A criminal is not going to abide by any law. When a politician tells you he wants to forbid you from owning a firearm or force you to get a license, he is telling you he doesn’t trust you. That’s an insult. From years I was a police officer and was trusted with a fire arm. But now I have to ask and be at their (the politicians) mercy when I want to buy a gun or own one. I have to get their approval.
They trust American people with all kinds of fire arms when they want them to go war. But when those gallant men and women take off their uniforms and return to their homes and take on the responsibility for their families’ safety, all of a sudden the politicians don’t trust these very people who defended America to own a gun. How can they justify that? Gun control is not really about guns or crime. They (the government} would have you to believe that but it is about leaders that fears the common people and want more control over them."
Most if not all the governors’, senators, and other politicians have armed body guards to protect them or they carry a firearm for their protection. These are the very same politicians that deny you that same right. What is wrong with that picture?
There is coming a time real soon that all Americans had better have a fire arm in their house and know how to use it. No matter if it is a shot gun (Joe Bidden special) or a hand gun. Be prepared. Most people will stock pile food and supplies for safety but they had better throw a gun or two in that mix. Our country is becoming more lawless and perverted every day.

America’s Biggest Problem

 

Barack Obama, our nation’s leader, is a man who does not believe in America or America’s outstanding record as a nation. He is a president who is not the least bit interested in our national security or is he interested in America's place in the world. He is one that considers our strength part of the world’s problem. He believes that America is the cause of international tension. This is supposedly the leader of the free world thinking this. This is the man that is our President!

Our elected officials and those who are in position of leadership should be devoted and steadfast to the task of restoring the American economy and our national security. Barack Obama is not interested, in the least, in protecting American internally or aboard. A person has to wonder whose side he is on.

I say that because after you consider all the negative things that he has done and wants to do, all the lies he has told and promises to the American people he has made he sure is not for the American people. Think about this - we're talking about a president who did utterly nothing to punish the murder of our Ambassador in Benghazi, by Al-Qaeda terrorists and then to top it off covered it up with a lie.

As Americans we should not and cannot accept an America that is weak and declining, a military that is poorly equipped and is not capable of standing firm against aggression home and abroad. God has shed His grace on this country and we should never forget that. Americans must never accept an American president who is weak, dithering, and apologetic and sorry about America's position and leadership in the world. We must never accept a president that can look into the TV camera and lie, one who trashes our economy and destroys our military,

The only true statement that he has made to the American people is that he wants to transform “CHANGE” America and that he is doing with a pen and his telephone while congress and the American people stand by and do nothing.

Give Me Liberty, Religious Freedom, Or Give Me Death

clip_image001I wonder if most people in America truly understand what is going on in our country and in the world that we live in today, All Americans should be truly worried about our loss of personal freedoms! They are leaving us fast! Since Obama has come into office we are losing more and more everyday and most people do not care that this is happening as long as this big plantation that we are now living on, does not stop giving out the freebies. People all over this world in a lot of different countries are fighting to keep their freedoms while most people in America could care less with a “What you going to give me “attitude. They would rather live on the plantation. Some people see Obama a the messiah and what a shame that is.

Americans, who care, should strongly challenge the many schemes, and exploitations, of our progressive (a polite word for communist) president against our own Constitution and Bill of Rights. If you remember he is the man said he would change America and he is piece by piece! The is just about the only true thing that he has done since he has been elected. Some Americans are losing their freedoms and they, for the most part, are doing nothing except looking for the next hand out.

If people want to see where our country is headed they need to look no further than Korea. The contrast between a people’s freedom and slavery can be clearly seen, by comparing the North and South Korea nations. One was founded and exists on absolute political control; the other thrives and blossoms through a democratically operating free people!

History has shown that our freedoms are taken for granted and that is one thing that should never happen. Because once our freedoms are lost, they go the way of North Korea, and like in the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany years earlier!

If the American people do not soon take notice and realize it is Obama and his “political class” that “We the People” must control and get a grip on and not the other way around So take heed America, your future is in your hands, but only if you fight constantly for your Constitutional rights, as our Founders fought for us and our futures! If we do not wake up soon the next two years can spell doom for America under Obama and we are already on that slippery slope.

The freedoms that American soldiers, both men and women, have fought for, been maimed for, and died for are leaving us fast. As for me “Give me liberty, let me serve the Lord as I want or give me death!”

Republic or Dictatorship

When I was growing up in the small village of Harmony I would watch many World War two movies where anarchy, lawlessness, and bad things happened when leaders like Hitler, Mussolini, and others ruled their countries with the attitude it was their way or the highway or you will do as I say. Now in our present day the word “lawlessness” seems to be applied to the actions of the President of the United States. It seems that he would like to be either King or a dictator. The facts are all there. I was always taught from my youth up that there were and still are three branches of government, Administrative, Legislative and Judicial. Both branches of our congress had to agree and then the president agreeing and signing the Bill.

It looks like our President (Obama) thinks that he has power over all three branches which would be the same totalitarianism. In other words a dictatorship

I never thought or assumed that I, or any other person in this country would ever be concerned or troubled about that problem in this country but we need only to look at the actions of Obama and how he has dealt with certain issues. When we stop and look what has happened and what is happening in this country today it is very plain to see that Obama is trying to be a dictator.

Obama reprimand the Supreme Court in his State of the Union speech for the whole world to hear over a decision the court made on campaign contributions as the Democrats stood and cheered. If a person would take time to look you will now see that only his appointees attend the speeches. Certain people of his own party are backing away from him.

He all but told them how they should vote on Obama Care before any decision was made. Unfortunately Justice Roberts, by ignoring the Commerce clause, decided it was a tax and supported the law, otherwise we would not be in the mess we are in on health care. And this Obama Care law is a mess. We have confusion, disorder, and just plain chaos with this law. Changes are being made just about on a daily bases.

It is the Senate’s responsibilities to approve the president’s appointees but he has appointed members of the Labor Relations Board who have made hundreds of decisions in union cases favoring the unions. While the Senate was in session during the time and the courts decided twice that the appointments were flawed and yet they are still there. Why is this? The President has tried to force them in by continuing their appointment, and his partner Harry Reid has allowed no vote on their approval. They are still there. Not by the choice of the American people, but by the dictatorship of Obama.

Obama and his Secretary of State have made an agreement with Iran that does not have the approval of the Senate, to lift sanctions on one of the most ruthless countries in the world. This is a country whose leaders are full of hate not only for Israel, bur for the United States also. Obama also agreed to pay eight billion dollars to Iran with the first payment of five hundred and fifty million already sent. How far would that money go to help America? Al this while Iran is most likely still making the nuclear bomb which they would used on America in a split second.

Obama has over and over again made changes to Obama Care that is financial and seriously affects the financial structure of the law (and this country) without going back to Congress and getting their approval. This awful piece of legislation has already cost millions of American people their health care. However Obama decides what he will delay and what will go ahead. This is called a dictator. Obama just does not think the law applies to him. Just look at this statement he made: “I have a pen and a telephone and will use it if the Congress does not do what I believe has to be done.”

Obama is now implementing attacks on this country’s coal industry (Which will cost this country thousands of jobs.), the trucking industry and commerce, setting up environmental laws, and he has created nearly nine hundred Executive Orders which are more than double all of the orders issued by the previous forty three presidents combined. That means all of them together. That smells like a want to be dictator to me! Time to wake up people!

Do you remember the many things that have happen since he has been in office? Like having the Internal Revenue Service attack certain segments of the other side, wiretapping the media and going after reporters’ parents for no reason? Obama ignored the death of an American ambassador because it might hurt his election campaign. Just look at the Attorney General, our law enforcement officer, lying to the Congress. We have to have an administration that will be honest with the American people. Not get that from Obama.

There is a trend of anarchy seen here in which Obama who is (or says he is) a constitutional law professor, who has completely disregarded the Constitution. America has existed for over 200 years because of the protection of the Constitution and its balance of power. Our country was designed that way by our fore fathers. The American people are being controlled and completely dominated by a man that lies to us, ignores the rule of law, attacks the Judiciary, ignores the Congress and believes that whatever he says is law. That may sound strong to some people but just stop and think. Many brave Americans have died to protect the Constitution, and we, as Americans, cannot let Obama or any other President try to ignore “The Rule of Law” that this country was founded on.

The question is simple. Do we want a Republic or a dictatorship? You decide.

Living On Obama’s Plantation

The Democrats, liberals, and progressives are right, when they say there are two Americas, but that is where it stops. There is an America that works and contributes by doing their part, and the America that doesn’t do anything, better known as the “What you going to give me”, crowd that does nothing. It’s not the case, as the Democrats would have you to believe, of the haves and the have nots, but the truth of what it really is, it is a case of the ones that do and the ones that don’t. Obama and the Democrats will tell you it is all about income inequality and discrimination of wages. What they need to know is not about income or how much money a person makes, it is about getting a job, supporting their self, it’s not about income, it’s about some people’s civic irresponsibility. 

Obama promised the rest of his term, as president to fighting “income inequality.” He said that some people make more than other people, that some people have higher incomes than others, and he says that’s not fair or just. What is not just about it? What kind of rationale is that? It sounds like stealing to me. The other guy has it, you want it, and so Obama will take it from you. That is what you get when you vote Democrat. That is the attitude that is destroying America. The hard working people of this country are being betrayed by a party that seeks their own good rather than the good of our country.

The Democrats have not helped the people who voted them into office. What they have done is enslaved their followers in a society of dependence on the government and what they call entitlement. The Democrat party wants people to think they are victims instead of giving them hope

Obama’s argument is that you reduce income inequality by degrading the successful. That way of thinking denies the successful working Americans the consequences of their choices and spares the unsuccessful the consequences of their choices. And we have a leader (Obama) and a political party (the Democrats) that believe in this system. Talking about living on a big plantation, we are headed that way fast!

Income will vary in any social order because of different choices that the people make. Those people that choose wisely have a far greater likelihood of success, while those who choose foolishly and irresponsibly have a far greater likelihood of failure. Success and failure usually manifest themselves in personal and family income. You choose to drop out of high school or to skip college and you are apt to have a different outcome than someone who gets a diploma and pushes on with purpose for their education. When people have children before getting married and keep on having children before marriage most of the time life will most likely take its course, When a couple have kids within a marriage life is apt to take another course. Most often in life our destination is determined by the course we take.  We must have a standard in this country to live by.

Let me give you an example. I’m a licensed electrician. I worked as an apprentice in the trade, studied the electric code for months and went to a lot of classes before I was tested and past the government test to be licensed and to be in business and owner of my own company. The process took a lot of my time but I stuck with it and that is the reason I have made a good living for years. There are other people like me that do the same thing. They may be Doctors, lawyers, or some other profession or trade. The point is we all gave up some of our free time and freedom to get where we are at now. But now Obama and his party want to take away what I have made in my life time and give it to people who could care less about a better life style.

There are some people that do not have those same thoughts or work ethics when they get out of school. They will take a job anywhere, doing anything. The fact is they made a choice the same as I made a choice and our choices led us to different outcomes. Their decision pays a lot less than mine or a doctor, or a nurse, or a lawyer, does that mean I cheated and Barack Obama needs to take away part of my income? No, it means we are both free men in a free society where free choices lead to different outcomes. It is not inequality or discrimination that Barack Obama wants to take away; it is our freedom to succeed, or the freedom to fail.  The point that I want to make here is if there is no true option for success then there is no true option for failure. We have a choice of how we want to live.

The pursuit of happiness means a whole lot less when you face the disciplinary hand of government if your pursuit for a better life brings you more happiness than the other guy. Even if the other guy sat on his butt and did nothing. Even if the other guy made a lifetime’s worth of stupid and “I do not care” decisions. Obama and the Democrats preach and teach impartiality and fairness in the outcome of a person’s future as a right, while completely ignoring inequality and the effort of others that are productive.

The plain truth is this, “The harder you work, the more you get."  Obama wants to turn that upside down. Those who achieve in their life are to be punished as enemies of society and those who fail are to be rewarded as wards of society. In other words Obama wants to bring back the plantation where everybody has to depend on the boss man and that would be him.

Obama and the Democrat party talk of two Americas and their hold on power is based on using the votes of one to take away the effort of the other to better their self. America is not divided by the differences in our outcomes; it is divided by the differences in our efforts.  It is a false idea or viewpoint to say one man’s success comes about as the result of another man’s unfair treatment.

What Obama offers is not a solution, but a separation. He has, during his term in office fomented division and strife, pitted one set of Americans against another for his own political benefit.  That’s what socialists offer.

Two Americas, coming closer each day to proving the truth to Lincoln’s statement: A house divided against itself cannot stand. This is what Obama came into office to do and he is doing a pretty good job of it.

The Real Threat To The Republic

 


In a recent editorial in a local newspaper a Democratic forum editorial declared “Republicans are a threat to the Republic.” For five years now, whenever the Democrats or Obama are perturbed, it is blame it on Bush or the Republicans. For a lot of Americans including me think that It’s a rather childish and babyish approach, and, frankly, it is getting tiring and enough is enough.

The editorial was referring to the recent government shutdown and the supposed devastation to the economy it created. The only part of that statement that is true is that it was devastating bur that is far as it goes. That problem could have been solved early and easily if all of congress would have agreed to negotiate. But if we could please, recall that Majority Leader Harry Reid’s contribution to the negotiations was always “No, he was not interested.” Out in the field with the liberal crowds (Obama gave me a free cell phone crowd) cheering in the background, President Obama said he was always ready to talk to the Republicans, but as soon as he arrived back at the White House, his attitude and actions was uncooperative and different from when he was on the road. Because of this kind of situation, the agreement to stop a government shutdown was only accomplished at the last hour.

The article also implies that tax payer’s money is not paying for Obamacare. Who do they think are the ones, financing the Web page with over a billion dollars spent to date and it is still no working! And why did Obama decide on a Canadian firm to develop the Web page for Obamacare and keep them on after their obvious incompetence was exposed? There needs to be an answer to these two questions. Why did Obama give the task of developing the web site to another country and the last question is why were they kept on after their incompetence was greatly visible?

And, finally, many of my fellow Americans voices are being heard in anger over Obamacare and the soaring debt which had gone from $8 trillion under all other presidents to the current $17 trillion under Obama in five years. Now this is truly the threat to our country. It is pulling our country under. Fellow Americans this must be stopped. Obama and his liberal friends are more of a threat to our country than any foreign power.

Obama Lied

Obama lied to all of us about the Affordable Care Act, (better known as Obama Care) that was forced onto the American public, from a Democratic-controlled House of Representatives, a Democrat controlled Senate and by a Democrat president in the White House. The Affordable Care Act legislation was written behind closed and locked doors by the Senate Democrats and House of Representatives Democrats and the bill was passed by Democrats. So much for being out in the open about it. I think the word Obama uses is being transparency. Now we have all heard Obama from the very start of Obama Care telling us if we liked our doctors we could keep them, if we liked our insurance we could keep it. (He Lied and he knew it when he said it) Well what did he mean? He now says that isn’t what he meant. That in my opinion is called back peddling or better yet lying. Sorry, you can only keep your insurance if, nothing has changed with it, including cost increases, and it has to have certain things covered. You need mental health, maternity and substance abuse, etc. Well here is the thing about that; At nearly 68 years of age I do not need maternity or substance abuse coverage, but I and a lot of other Americans still have to purchase it. When you come right down to it, no one gets to keep their insurance. Obama has lied from the very beginning of it. It was covered up by Nancy Pelosi’s great revelation to the American people; “You have to pass it to see what is in it. That is the dumbest statement ever! And now because it was passed before we knew what was in it the federal government is now requiring the American people to buy coverage that a person does not need or want. The fault (better yet disaster) or problems with Obama Care are at the feet of the Democrats and no one else because most of them passed a bill that they never read and now most of them are back peddling also. They did not care because it did not pertain to them. Americans would have better laws if the House, Senate and White House did not have the power to exempt themselves from them. If your representative or senator voted for an exemption from Obama Care for themselves and their families, they need to be voted out of office. They are not above the law. They should be held to the law (same standards), like all the other American citizens in this country that they are supposed to be representing.

The Spy Who Knows Nothing

aria_c11332720131103120100   It was reported a few days ago Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, called up Barack Obama, to admonish him (other words to tell him off) for his administration’s determination to listen in on her private phone calls? That goes just a bit too far. I would like to have listened in on that exchange between Obama and her, but that would not have happen because I don’t work for the National Security Agency. I wonder who Obama blamed this on.

The chancellor said she unequivocally disapproves of such practices and sees them as completely unacceptable, a Merkel spokesman said, the Germany interior minister is demanding the United States provide “complete information” on the spying project that is being conducting against the German government. The spokesman added that “between close friends and partners ... there should be no such monitoring of the communication of the leaders of government. That would be and is a grave breach of trust.. But breach of trust seems almost to be the way to go at the NSA under Obama. A carefully worded statement from the White House press secretary Jay Carney said, “The President assured the chancellor that the United States is not monitoring and will not monitor the communications of Chancellor Merkel.” There was no indication of past tense in Mr. Carney’s statement. But the chancellor knows just like most Americans do that you cannot believe anything that comes out of his mouth or from his so called transparent government.

All Americans need to support the work of the NSA to some degree. The United States needs a stout ability in this age of increasing danger. But the NSA does not have to tap the German chancellor’s cell phone. That is going way too far. Since then we here the Catholic Pope’s phone was also taped by the NSA. Now where is the threat to national security there? Although we know that the current concept of privacy is a impressionable one, because of all the threats to national security and the casual manner with which many Americans toss around their personal information on social media, like Face Book and Twitter but that doesn’t mean that it is a right for Obama or the NSA to spy on The American people either. It is Indeed a time to set tougher standards for the NSA. Although we need a spy agency, we do not need a bunch of thugs who work for a want to be dictator going around spying on everybody.

The Obama administration has been embarrassed by the NSA spying on other European allies including France and Spain. According to reports at least 35 countries may have been monitored or spied on by the NSA under Obama.. While many people have grave concerns about the actions of the former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, who is now holed up in Moscow, it was his revelations that have prompted a national conversation about the junction of espionage with personal privacy and national interests. We expect more from the president than “I didn’t know it was going on,” (HE LIES) It is just another example of Obama’s tendency to deflect criticism by claiming ignorance or else blaming it on someone else. Once again let me insert here that Obama is deceiver and a liar. Spying on the American people, our allies and friends fits Obama’s sneaky personality to a tee. Americans cannot even talk on their cell phone without knowing if they are being spied on. Now we are being spied on by the internet. When will it ever stop? We do not live in a communist country or do we? The fact is, under Obama we are heading that way fast.

Obama’s claim that he was in the dark and was backed up by the NSA, (Of course they will not blame Obama. They would fall on the sword first.) But German newspapers claim that Obama had been informed of the spying operation. You will never hear that from our liberal newspapers. Whether Obama knew about it in advance or not, this incident and many others like it have damaged America’s reputation with key allies. It’s up to Obama to repair those relations with our allies and he could start by taking responsibility rather than dodging it. But that is something that he will never do. Past experience tells us that he will blame it on everybody and everything before he will that the blame.
