LOOK AT THE BIRDIES!

The Obama campaign is working extra hard to sell the American people on giving this ultra partisan and incompetent president another 4 years to continue his bankrupt ideology. His campaign continually shifts to the slogan de jour in order to find anything that can be as successful as was the “Hope and Change” sloganeering that helped him get elected.


His modus operandi reminds one of a time honored trick used to thwart children’s desperate desire to have something or throw a temper tantrum if denied. The trick is called distraction. If you could get the child focused on something else they will forget their original object of desire.

Are the American voters as naïve and easily distracted as little toddlers? Are we so unaware of intrinsic proof that unfolds its reality by our own common eyes on Main Street and Wall Street that we ignore what we see to instead believe a political sophists lie?

The Democrats and the Obama administration certainly believes that they can win an election by once again relying on distraction, slogans, slander of the opponent, demonizing conservative values and making every dismal economic statistic better by the claim it would have been worse if not for Obama.

It is an old political trick. It has worked for them in the past. Will this electorate distraction work in an age of voter awareness? Most parents know that the distraction trickery no longer works as the child ages and matures. Have we matured as voters?

The level of success of this distraction psychology needs more than just a group of Party officials quacking out a duck feathered litany of lies. It needs another flock of trusted squawkers to either repudiate or promote the quackery.

Americans long suspected that the mainstream media had a liberal bias long before it was fashionable to make that conspiratorial claim. Yet, most believed (some still do) that it was innocent bias, meaning that the reporters and editors were human and part of the imperfection of being human is the inability to exercise a completely machine-like objectivity.

However, it doesn’t explain why most major newspapers and television news outlets contain a lopsided number of liberal believing employees. If bias reporting was just problems of human error in reporting stories than news would sometimes lean left and sometimes lean right.

More importantly the argument that mainstream news is a conspiratorial reality rather than a human folly proves itself by omission. Why are the biggest and most explosive political stories not being covered by the news outlets?

If the New York Times wants to claim that the national security stories it printed regarding the covert counter-terrorism operations were the public’s right to know then why isn’t the cover-up of Holder’s Fast and Furious fiasco equally front page news?

Why when the Watergate scandal broke did all the major news outlets jump on the news bandwagon to drumbeat bits and pieces of new details while the Fast and Furious current scandal is barely mentioned?

There is no longer an argument or an excuse that can be used by the mainstream media to deny their corrupt collusion with the liberal agenda and this Obama administration. The question is not whether the major networks are biased but rather to what degree of corrupt propaganda and misinformation are they willing to pass off as professional journalism?


The media has switched to the tactic of omission by claiming their age old paradoxical rational. Claiming that they don’t write the news but merely report it and then furthering that argument by saying that what news makes the front pages is driven by public appeal. If a story doesn’t sell to the public it dies but if the story gains public interest it is incessantly reported on the front pages.

This is bunk. The logic makes no sense. If I have a secret and tell no one should I suggest that it is curious that no one is interested in my secret? Is it strange that no one has asked me to reveal something they have no idea I hold in my mind?

 
Americans did not know about the Stuxnet virus that was created in cooperation with the Israeli and American espionage agencies to thwart Iran’s computers to delay their nuclear program. It was a secret, intended to be a secret and by the New York Times exposing the secret it begs an Iranian retaliation in our future.

Americans understand that covert operations need to be kept secret. Equally Americans want to believe in the integrity of these operations. We don’t expect our CIA or FBI to act immorally but we do expect stealthy operations to undermine our enemies and the threats they pose to our security.


Is the argument that the secret mission of Fast and Furious is less appealing to the American public that our own government sold guns to Mexican drug thugs that eventuated in these guns being used to kill two law enforcement officers (Zapata and Terry) and Americans still don’t know who in our government authorized this criminal law enforcement operation?

The New York Times must be doggy chasing the meaty bone of the Fast and Furious scandal with the same demand to bring the truth to the American people right? They must know that having a corrupt operation approved by the ATF and the DOJ that resulted in hundreds of dead Mexican nationals and two American law enforcement officers is a slam dunk “right to know” story right? More importantly there continues to be a cover-up while the president issues Executive Privilege to insure no more information leaks out can’t be claimed as a ho-hum run of the mill news event right?

Look at the birdies! The mainstream news media is in sensual bed swimming under the covers of the Obama liberal agenda trying to pretend that they are not in full fallacious love with their mister while they commit blatant adultery on their public responsibility to be objectively married to the truth.

The American voters have grown since 2008 with the rise of the Tea Party activists that are educating voters to the tactics employed by this administration and the Democratic Party for generations. Sadly, some voters still rely on the major network and newspapers for their information and those ignorantly loyal voters are what this administration is counting on to win re-election.

We need to grow up as Americans and no longer rely on pundits, press or sloganeering from those with a vested interest in selling us distractions. Any American can look around at their country’s problems and the outlook it portends and know instinctively that we need to reverse course not re-elect those that continue to steer us toward misery.

If you want HOPE then we must change both the president and the Democratic majority in the Senate otherwise you will have proven that corruption, lies, and distractions are more powerful than your own rational reasonable adult common sense.

DEMOCRATS FAST AND FURIOUSLY DON’T CARE

The Fast and Furious scandal has yet to be exposed, explained, detailed, documented and fully disclosed to the public. It seems that the only information known about this Gun Running operation is the when, it occurred while the questions of what, how, who and why remain shrouded in secrecy.


This scandal has graduated from a failed sting operation being investigated by Congress to a corrupt conspiracy between the ATF, DOJ and the White House that now has the President involved by invoking Executive Privilege.

The Democrats sitting on the House Committee claim that the Republicans are on a witch hunt to embarrass Eric Holder and the Obama administration. Are they serious? They claim that Holder has released all the relevant documents pertaining to this investigation even though most of the documents turned over by Justice contain a visible letterhead while the rest of the words on the pages are “blacked out” or redacted. Do they think that reflects supplying information?

Further the Democrats continue to play the blame George Bush game by comparing a previous gun-running covert ATF sting named operation “Wide Receiver” as though they were kissing cousins. That could not be further from the truth. They know it and we know it.

First operation “Wide Receiver” had the full knowledge and cooperation of the Mexican government in a joint effort to uncover the gun running network of the cartels. The guns that initially went across the border were interdicted because those guns were outfitted with tracking devices. Eventually, however the cartels criminals realized that the guns were being traced and they were able to disable the tracking devices. When both the ATF and the Mexican authorities started to lose track of the guns the operation was shut down by the Bush Administration in 2007.

Unlike Fast and Furious we know what the goal was in “Wide Receiver” that being to uncover the network.

We know the how of the operation, which was the tracking of weapons to allow Mexican police to make the arrests and gather intelligence on the network.

We know the who which was a cooperative law enforcement effort between the Justice Department, (AG Mukasey) the Alcohol and Firearms Agency
(Todd Jones)and the United States and Mexican Government.

We also know the why of the operation, which of course was to stop gun traffic across the border and help the Mexican government by disrupting the drug cartels ability to outgun their military and police with American made weapons.

Lastly we know why the program was shut down. The reason was that the Mexican criminals figured out how to disable the tracking devices and guns were then lost by both ATF and Mexican authorities. It was a program with good intentions to stop violence by thugs that initially yielding better intelligence but when guns were lost Bush’s Justice Department did the right thing and shut down the program.


We also know that this type of sting operation used in law enforcement is pretty S.O.P (Standard Operating Procedure) in most covert criminal investigations. Whether it is money laundering, drug trafficking or any other network of transferring contraband the tracking of the low man (bag man) in the point of sale or transfer and following them to a larger player (bigger criminal) in the illegal network allows law enforcement greater effectiveness to halt the criminal operations.

Conversely what do we know about operation “Fast and Furious”?

We know the when. Fast and Furious was started in 2009. We know that both the American people and the Mexican government did not know about Fast and Furious gun-running until Border agent Brian Terry died December 14, 2010.


We have yet to learn who authorized Fast and Furious in the Justice Department and whether AG Holder knew and the President knew about this unethical operation.

We don’t know what Fast and Furious intended to accomplish. In fact, it seems a shrouded mystery that ATF law enforcement would solicit gun store owners to sell to customers it would otherwise turn away then watch the gun buyers take their booty across the border while they watched and did nothing.

Therefore we don’t know why this operation was conceived. Why would you allow guns across the border without tracking devices and without any way to interdict and recover those weapons?

Perhaps most importantly we don’t know how any responsible officials in our government could have allowed this operation both to become operational.

How does a law enforcement agency get authority from our Justice Department to arm criminals without a plan to recapture both the weapons and the criminals? What was the plan?

The Terry family deserves answers from this administration. The American people deserve answers from this administration.


For Holder and the Democrats to say “Fast and Furious” was a botched gun-running operation that was similar to “Wide Receiver” under George Bush is not just a bold faced lie it is a purposeful marginalization of a serious breach of ethics, law and morality.

The idea has been floated that the real agenda for “Fast and Furious” was to allow these weapons to be found at crime scenes both in Mexico and the United States and then blame America’s gun store owners and State’s weak gun laws as being responsible for arming criminals. That would be outrageous!


Yet, is it crazy given that this operation came at the heels of President Obama making the public claim that 90 percent of the guns used by Mexican criminals came from the United States? That the ATF’s own statistics report that only 12% of American guns come from across the border making Obama’s statement wildly inaccurate and embarrassing?

Is it crazy when the operation came at the heels of the Obama administration suing Arizona for its new immigration law?

Is it crazy when we know that Mexican President Calderon has consistently accused the United States of not doing enough to stop the flow of American weapons across the border and was invited by President Obama to chastise Congress over Arizona immigration policy in May of 2010? Was Obama setting the table by having Calderon chastise Congress to reinstate the assault weapons ban?

There is a lot of smoke. There is a lot of mystery. There is a lot of conspiratorial ducks lined up and quaking while A.G. Holder refuses to release the documentation to answer all the questions.

Now the administration has imposed Executive Privilege to further shroud the discovery of the truth.

Why is the truth being withheld? What are Holder and Obama afraid of revealing to the public? What was the ultimate plan of the “Fast and Furious” operation? Why after eighteen months since the death of Brian Terry are his family and Americans still in the dark about who, what, why and how this happened?



If the Democrats want to suggest this is a witch hunt then they should come to the podium before the American people and tell us what they know. Otherwise they should be as furious and curious over the secrecy and stop playing politics over this lawless, immoral and deadly scandal!

How dare they not care! How dare they not want answers? How dare they call the search for the truth for the Terry Family a witch hunt!

All Americans should be FAST and FURIOUSLY demanding full and complete disclosure!

COMMON SENSE AND MORALITY NEVER GETS OLD

In the quest of the left to undermine the common sense voices of the awakening American electorate it has gone over the top and plummeted straight to the bottom.

The Wisconsin defeat of the union backed recall of Scott Walker was on its face a display of the self-indulgent spoiled liberal activist’s brigade that hypocritically speaks of democracy they don’t practice.


Americans have a clearer view of the liberal’s complete “demo-corrupt-cy” when it comes to accepting the outcome of voter defeat of their agenda. All conservative and independents can put away their field glasses they have used for over a hundred years to warn other citizens of the coming herd of anti-American predators seeking to stampede her storied culture into oblivion.


They stormed statehouses, taken over the Democratic Party and have been drinking their full in the public watering hole with hydrated hubris as they bred and crossbred their herd. Using an old animal defense mechanism they puff out their bodies to appear grandeur, bigger and more powerful to their foes by the help they received from their media and Hollywood special effects control.

Megaphones, celebrity endorsements, legal loopholes, political chicanery, sly sloganeering, acid spitting accusations of their detractors and the mastery of creating facts and statistic to contort any truth into proof of their positions.

The old guards at the civilized gates of old glory’s waving traditions were seemingly overrun by these petulant persistent pests that lived in every home wanted or unwanted but tolerated nonetheless.

Some of the old guard defected and joined the herd while others compromised by giving part of the American house to them as a haven out of fear they would dominate the domain.

Therefore the marauding mobbish mutating minions of radical reformers not only appeared as innocuous infiltrators to the American cultural landscape after decades but seemed transformed into indigenous idealists.

 
They claimed to be soiled, seeded and sowed by the concepts of constitutional construct that evolved their evanescent egalitarian notions of idiomatic individualism seen as a collective conscience. One brain balled together to stamp a strategy to indoctrinate, infiltrate and interpose their views on the American vista.

Ah but they were not satisfied with being allowed to peacefully play preacher to their socialists songs of the promised land of heaven on earth. No they had to bear their fanatical fangs dripping with tyrant threats of temper tantrum tampering of voter volition.

They not only instigated a defiant disregard of democracy by petitioning a recall against a duly elected Governor but they lost by a large margin to which no message massaging can mitigate its moral meaning.

Americans can see in 3d clarity without blue and red lenses what the left stands for, where the left wants to take America, and how that will end if we hop on the utopian bus.

Across the pond (Europe) the scum is so thick with cultural and economic contamination that the well water long used by liberals to sell its fraudulent future fantasy is a desert reflecting the dull dusty demonstration to their complete communal convoluted coherence to nothing more than power and self-indulgence.

It was not the old guard (GOP) that provided the common sense chemical that scattered the pestilence growing out of control in the political landscape in Wisconsin and the nation but rather a grassroots band of patriot prodigies willing to offer up their sparse free time to clean house.

These are the “New” Americans of the 21st century that honor their forefather’s past as they embrace the future forward with the simple successful and insightful awareness that while technology replaces old fashioned methods both common sense and morality never gets old.

The best new ideas come from pragmatic inspiration that knows we can't compete against the laws of the natural world but expand our vision from the reality of what is cogent and possible. We can fly but not because we humans grew wings on our bodies.

SELLING SHRILL SLANDER GLOBALLY

The NAACP was formed as an opposition power to racism along as an advocacy group for the minority voice in the beginning of the 20th century. Its goals, aims and accomplishments to defend the equitable treatment of minorities by working within the framework of both the legal system and the media are laudable.

In fact the NAACP for over a century has been viewed by all Americans as an advocacy group that consistently adhered to its primary mission of equality and was considered an apolitical organization committed to fairness.

However, a few decades before the close of the 20th century the NAACP found itself the subject of hypocrisy and racism. It decided to align itself with the Democratic Party and be used as another arm of the left wing to get out the vote in support of only Democratic candidates.

Worse, even though the group had been helped to exist by being funded heavily with money and influence by the Jewish community there is a growing anti-Semitic voice in the Black community that has not been condemned enough by this organization.

The problem with any group hijacked for a political purpose is that it quickly loses both credibility and integrity to its basis for formation. Loyalty to an apolitical principle vanquishes when any group aligns its loyalty to political allies. Those allies receive immunity and protection from a group creating hypocrisy because the finger pointing is no longer based on objective righteousness but instead used to attack political opponents.

The idea that the NAACP could charge the Tea Party Movement as being racists with no proof while remaining conspicuously silent on Obama’s 20 year relationship with a known racist’s agitator in Reverend Wright illustrates the complete fraudulentness of the group today.

Another important lesson dispositive of why all political action groups end up ultimately collapsing and imploding their own credibility is “rebellion without a cause”, or not knowing when to quit.

Too many special interest groups formed for an honorable purpose, work hard to achieve their intended goals, succeed but then do not disband. As a result of this lust for activism with their cause achieved they cling to relevancy by trying to relive their past nostalgia by becoming shrill. Shrill by using histrionic comparative of real moral transgressions of the past to current day political petty ideological pander.

Sadly, your parent’s NAACP just like your parent’s Democratic party has been taken over by radical left wing political ideologues intent on fomenting an ingrained sense of Wright’s “goddamn America”.

For the NAACP to compare the current voter ID laws as being even remotely connected to a time predating the passage of Civil Rights when discrimination existed mocks themselves as much as it negates America’s progress from its prejudicial past.

To add insult to injury the NAACP has decided to take this argument of discrimination of Photo Id voting laws to the theater of the absurdity and inanity namely the United Nations Human Rights Council. If ever there was a synonym phrase for collective hypocrisy the United Nations would be on the shortest list.


For the NAACP or any other American political group to make requests or petition to the United Nations Human Rights Council regarding our election laws is an abomination. Especially when we know membership on this counsel includes countries like Saudi Arabia that discriminates against women.




We all know that the United Nations has no legal jurisdiction over America's election laws and therefore the only conclusion one can draw for why the
NAACP has chosen to request an affirmation by the United Nations Human Rights Council that photo ID laws are discriminatory is to get validation to argue that American laws are racists in the court of world public opinion.
Trying to utilize an international organization to wrestle with fundamentally domestic issues is a disturbing trend of the radical left. Seeking the approval or the condemnation of American laws made by, for and of the people by arguing their immoral value to international organizations is ultra un-American and fodder for our enemies “Great Satan” image propaganda.

By the very nature of its undertaking the NAACP has proven itself to be an organization that not only seeks to keep racism alive but transform it to an absurd level of victimhood. Proving your identity and eligibility to vote in America has absolutely nothing to do with racism but everything to do with halting the rampant fraud in our election process.

Instead of trying to heal the nation from the racial wounds of an ugly historical past this organization and other left-wing organizations continue to foment a paranoia of discrimination conspiracy using political soapboxes both in and now, outside the United States.

All Americans understand that it is healthy and in fact civic minded to argue and debate government laws regulations and policies however those differences of opinion internally should never be a aired in international forum.

Leaving aside that the photo ID law requiring voters to prove their eligibility is an extreme stretch of the imagination to call it discriminatory why is the NAACP taking this discussion to a world stage? Why is it NAACP running to the United Nations? What does international law have to do with state election laws?

Most Americans rightfully believe that insulting America by an American in a foreign country is wrong disrespectful and highly inappropriate. It bespeaks cowardice and extreme disloyalty to badmouth your country from another country.


Equally running to the United Nations to seek their approval of condemnation of our sovereign laws goes beyond disrespect, beyond disloyalty, beyond inappropriate, beyond legitimate political debate and into the realm of anti-American antagonism.

It is perplexing and disturbing that American special interest groups seem to be operating with such a rogue mentality that they fail to understand that their very existence and the freedom to exercise myopic viewpoint is guaranteed by the very country they seek to condemn.

Does the NAACP believe that it might have a stronger argument if Saudi Arabia agrees with it regarding the photo ID law? Will our American justice system be persuaded by the Human Rights Council of the United Nations or any international authority outside the United States as rational argument to strike down American laws? 

Patriotic Americans are increasingly frustrated with a liberal minority that seeks to undermine our Constitution, Bill of Rights and our nation's sovereignty. Seeking United Nations approval for any actions be they about war or our domestic laws is intolerable.


The liberal left continues to prove itself to be unpatriotic, anti-American,
selfishly contemptuous, lip-service loyal, politically unbridled, agenda driven to retain power attain power and to suck the power out of the United States Constitution.

PHEW PEW FINALLY A POLITICAL STAT CONSERVATIVES ALL KNEW


Recently the Pew Research Center conducted a study to determine the political party knowledge of voters by a 13 question quiz. They requested the voter’s party affiliation, their age and their educational background.

First Pew established that Republicans were more knowledgeable about political parties than liberals regardless of their formal education. Two the study found that Republicans were more open to criticism than their liberal counterparts. Three the study found that liberals only enjoy the company of other liberals while they banish friends that do not agree with their political views.

The results were not really surprising to conservatives who have long known that being a conservative comes with the price of being marginalized by the left-wing controlled education and media establishments.

Conservatives have been painted by liberals in an aggressive long standing erroneous campaign of character attack by the Democratic Party. They have painted the opposition Party members as dumb, (Hillbilly under-educated) obstinate, (religious zealots) and judgmental (moral police).

Therefore although the results may anger liberals who are more likely to castigate the study as bunk, conservatives know the ring of truth in the study’s findings based on the many antidotal experiences they have had with friends and family.

Why is there such disparity between the two political party views that transcends from a differing opinion into a character distinction over the realm of knowledge, self-examination and acceptance of opposing viewpoint?

Let’s talk about the finding by the Pew Research Center that shows that Republicans are more open to criticism.

Independent thinkers are taught to not fear the truth and to keep their minds open or otherwise truth becomes both elusive and self-serving. Many traditional stories and adages teach children that reliance on information un-sourced and un-substantiated is no more than a fools truth and or belief. Equally truth is as easily misinformed en mass as it can at times rest only with a few.

Americans were once routinely taught not to believe the so-called truth of gossip, hysteria, popular opinion, or even the rationalizations of their own egos when it comes to seeking the truth.

Conservatives believe that if the foundation of an argument is capricious, weak or contains dubious facts then as critical thinker you must acknowledge the feebleness of your opinion and concede it to be unsettled.

Liberals argue using antidotal evidence, theory, popular opinion, government statistics, and the views of influential people as factually proof that they were feed to believe in our educational institutions. Knocking down those beliefs is considered an affront to their core creed of their liberal religion.

Conservatives separate religion from politics when it comes to debating a political issue yet conservatives know that religion and moral conscience teaches you can never separate your character and values.

The third finding of the Pew Research shows that liberals need to flock together. Why? Well if you viewpoint is filled with flaws and you can’t defend it with intelligent argument you resort to the safety of like-minded fools. You also run away from sane arguments in order to avoid introspection that might find you wrong when you want desperately to save your delusional world view.

Conservatives don’t abandon friends and family just because they hold a different or wayward view. That is because they are secure in their point of view knowing it is based on facts and reality not theory and postulation. They are truth seekers willing to follow the truth to where it leads.

There is a reason that as citizens age they become more conservative in their opinions and it is not just that
they are afraid of the retribution of the after-life, but rather that experience teaches them the truth and the folly of liberal ideas. Ideas based on falsehoods never stand the test of time.

Many conservatives know that a large portion of the Occupy Wall Street crowd will age, pay taxes (we hope) and grow up to moderate their childish, selfish and myopic baseless viewpoint. Yes there will be a portion of those that will be recalcitrant and become the “established” left-wing activist of the future like Bill Ayers.

Yet, like everything in life you cannot rid society of all its “useful idiots”. There are fools born every day as the saying goes but we always know that reality and truth is powerful. Experience will keep slapping you upside your head until you learn and there is no escaping common sense when it is staring you in the face and taunting you when you ignore it.

FACT FICTION OR STRANGER THAN BOTH

The Healthcare Bill is back in the news in a big way as its constitutional fate is now in the hands and minds of 9 American jurists. Yet, it brings back a flood of images from its birth in 2009 to what might be its death in 2012.
Fact or fiction Obamacare was passed by the House and Senate as normal legislation and Bills become law?
Answer, strange!  Obamacare went from the House to Senate where the Senate made changes and sent the Bill to Committee. Committee made more changes and sent it back to the House. The House was supposed to vote aye or nay on those changes and if it passed House it should have returned to the Senate for final vote on the revised Bill.
Then if passed by the Senate it would need to return to House for final vote to become law. It never went back to the Senate floor for a vote.
Why? Nancy Pelosi looked at the Senate and committee’s revisions to the Bill and changed the wording of original House Bill to comport with the Senate claiming they were all of a budgetary nature. She then announced that because they were strictly cost differences she was going to not send the Bill back to the Senate but instead use a provision in the Budget Act of 1974 called Reconciliation. That parliamentary provision was intended to speed up the legislative procedure of Bills that were accepted by both bodies of Congress but hung up on small accounting differences and nothing more. The Healthcare Bill was neither a popular Bill nor a Bill that was only debated for its budgetary discrepancies.
Fact or fiction Obamacare was read by members of Congress before they passed the Bill?
Answer stranger still! No member of either body has read the Healthcare Bill before passage but worse no member can read the Healthcare Bill because is not completely written. Obamacare gives Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius huge bureaucratic power to write rules and regulations in governance over both insurances providers and healthcare providers. Therefore it is still a work in progress.
Fact of fiction Obamacare has a mandate requiring all Americans to buy health insurance or be fined a penalty?
Answer stranger than strange. Yes Obamacare claims that this penalty is not a tax or a mandate but an incentive without criminal prosecution if Americans ignore the fee. However, to the 50 States of the union who do not accept Obamacare they will be permanently shut off of Federal funds for Medicare in which the federal government will yet continue to force state citizens to pay in FICA contribution. In essence, if you don’t implement Obamacare the federal monies you paid for to fund the sick and elderly with be held hostage.
Fact or fiction ObamaCare’s Secretary writes provisions that violate the 1st Amendment?
Answer turn and face the strange. Yes the forcing of faith based healthcare providers like Catholic Hospitals to pay insurances premiums that support contraception, sterilizations and abortions without recognizing a moral exemption is the State interfering with religious liberty. Everyone knows that purveyance is support and the Church is being forced to have its healthcare dollars directed to the support of abortions which they equate as a sin equal with murder. Equally the poor who have religious objection to their health insurance policy funding abortion would be forced to choose no insurance coverage or Obamacare leaving them a discriminated choice.
Fact or fiction if Obamacare is held to be constitutional then the government would be able to control  by a broad expansion of Commerce Clause every aspect of the citizen’s life altering our limited Federal power, States Rights and individual liberty heretofore guarantees?
Answer estranged. Indeed if the court ruled Obamacare was constitutional and both the Congress and the people accepted that ruling as the final word then such would be the end of our Republic. However that would assume that the Supreme Court is the final arbiter that would then exhaust remedy for the people. That would be incorrect.
Repealing Obamacare would not make the precedent of the court ruling go away. The people still would have two courses of peaceful action. One is nullification by the States to refuse to agree with the Constitutionality of Obamacare and the court’s ruling forcing the Federal government to back down. Another petition to the court from the people might result in a Supreme Court reversal but even if it did not it would muddy the water for a future Congress to proceed with an open ended Commerce clause precedent.
Two, an amendment to the Constitution ratified by the States that limits the Commerce Clause, Necessary and Proper Clause to not only make Obamacare no longer constitutional but to set a future constraint on Congress and the Supreme Court.
The other options are perhaps not so peaceful but still promoted by our forefathers in that ultimately it is neither the Supreme Court, Congress nor the Executive Branch that has authority over the people but the other way around. We the people give legitimacy to our government and we the people are the final arbiters of its legitimacy.
The idea that in order to resolve a financial cost burden in healthcare many Americans are willing to assign the federal government dictatorial power over the people would be considered too improbable a premise for a fiction novel.

Yet that is the fact that Americans are facing today as we await the Supreme Court ruling. Making myself and the majority of Americans feel like strangers in the land of the free!

Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. 
The people themselves are its only safe depositories."

AMERICANS PATRIOTS ARE SITUATIONAL AWARE

The liberals in Congress along with many special interest groups (ACLU) had temper tantrums over George Bush and the Patriot Act. The claim was that even in the wake of trying to thwart terrorism the rights of citizens should not be infringed upon by Big Brother government.
Yet the Obama administration has not only supported the Patriot Act his Department of Homeland Security has extended spying on Americans.

Many conservatives worried that provisions in the Patriot Act were problematic to the notion of unfettered intrusion of privacy by federal officials and the precedent it would set against the Fourth Amendment.
The conservatives have always been wary that our government officials given the broad power to spy on so-called terrorists suspects without a warrant would branch out to invade the privacy of citizens based on political rivalry.
Conservatives want terrorists caught before they can carry out murderous plots against American citizenry but they equally want assurances of federal restraint to protect First Amendment rights.
Americans have learned that the Department of Homeland Security has been monitoring social sites (Twitter, Facebook, Drudge Report, Hulu) on the internet since 2010 claiming the need to “collect information used in providing situational awareness and establishing a common operating picture” for government officials.
Huh? Does that make sense? Nobody knows what “situational awareness” means?  Does it mean that federal officials are so computer illiterate then don’t know what a hash tag means?
 Does it mean that given the government’s penchant for long unintelligible writing officials need to learn to be witty writers under a twitter 140 character limit?
Exactly what “situation” can the Huffington Post or the Drudge Report provide “awareness” to the Homeland Security officials charged with protecting us from attack? Are we not already in the mainstream media subjected to editorial terrorism?  
The truth is that that our government is already “Big Brother” while the liberal media has become their controlled puppet.
Remember the uproar when the Obama administration refused to claim that we were at war with terrorism instead calling it a police action. What’s the difference? In a war you have clearly defined enemies that are not citizens unless it is a civil war. In a police action the enemy is not defined but includes anyone that violates the law.
The CIA and the FBI were looking for chatter from the enemy terrorists under Bush while the Homeland Security Department under Obama is reading the Twitter feed and the Drudge report?
The silence of the liberal media about Obama’s use of the Patriot Act points again to the one word that delineates the ideological difference between liberals and conservatives; hypocrisy.
Conservative Americans have always been skeptical of big government over individual liberty understanding the danger of excessive federal power.
The liberals on the other hand only use Fourth Amendment arguments against conservative leadership (Bush)
while becoming deafly silent about government spying done by their messiah of Marxism. (Obama)
All Americans should be outraged that Homeland Security is spying on America’s social network sites. Do they really believe that a terrorist will get on twitter with the hash tag #terrorists and expose their sleeper cell identity?
Are terrorists watching television shows and marking their favorites on Hulu in a secret cryptic message system or using the “like” on facebook to send code to others about a terrorist plot?
The only “situational awareness” at work here is that the government is spying on Americans with the same lame justification they use at the TSA for patting down children and old ladies at the airport.
We all know that there is no privacy in America today between car’s black boxes and smart phones even the Amish are traced and tracked by checking accounts and social security numbers.
However, we have never believed beyond the potential of our federal government becoming a police State directly violating the privacy rights of citizens until this new revelation of DHS.
More than ever conservative and independent Americans need to demand accountability of our government to the Bill of Rights. More than ever “We the People” must not allow federal government to intimidate us as we exercise our public protests while the government spies on us.
We cannot be afraid to voice our criticism of a government drunk with power especially when our elected Representatives ignore our Bill of Rights.

Let them come. Let them watch. Let them listen. Let them know. They might be watching us but “We the people” are “situational aware” that we have the power not them.
Our Constitution is more than a piece of paper the liberal left continually tries to distort and destroy. It is an intangible treasure held close and intractable in every traditional American heart and soul!
I will not give up on this fight. I will not fade into the night. I am America.” (I am America by Krista Branch)
