Obama Retreats To Secret Bunker As “Big Event” Draws Near

Barackburningtheconstitution1

A truly grim “urgent action bulletin” issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) earlier today states that the Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU) has received word from “highly placed” sources within the Pentagon that President Barack Obama this past week cancelled his trip to Asia and has retreated with many of his top aides to the mysterious and newly built White House bunker in preparation for what many in the world’s intelligence agencies are calling the “Big Event.”

Important to note are that these GRU sources were notified by their Pentagon counterparts last week that Obama was preparing to invoke the powers given to him under 50 USC Chapter 13 to hold that various American States are now in a “state of insurrection” thus allowing him to invoke the National Emergencies Act under 50 USC § 1621 and invoke the highly controversial “continuity of government” plan for the United States allowing him, in essence, to rule with dictatorial powers.

Equally important to note, this MoFA bulletin says, is that the mysterious White Bunker was completed last September (2012) at a cost of $86 million (US) and had taken over two years to complete and whose purpose remains clouded in secrecy.

Critical to note, this bulletin says, is that Obama quietly last month extended the post-9/11 Declaration of National Emergency thus giving him the power to take over America should he so choose.

Joining Obama in his plan to take over United States, this bulletin continues, are his journalist cohorts (otherwise known as “presstitutes”) who now include America’s top conservative reporters who were summoned yesterday to a secret “off-record” White House meeting with the President.

To what end Obama is ordering his propaganda media allies to prepare the American people for, this bulletin further states, can be gleaned from their recent reporting which includes:

1.) Former US Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Paul Craig Roberts who is advocating that Obama declare a National Emergency and rule as dictator.

2.) US Congress member Sheila Jackson Lee who is advocating that Obama declare Martial Law.

3.) New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman who is advocating that the American people stand with Obama as democracy itself is at stake.

4.) New York Times guest columnist and professor of history at Princeton University Sean Wilentz warning that the Obama regime has neglected to do its utmost to defend the Constitution punish Republicans he said have brought their country to ruin.

5.) Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Krugman advocating that Obama create a Constitutional crisis in order to defy Republican blackmailers.

Of the greatest danger facing the American people, MoFA historical analysts in this bulleting say, is Obama becoming a modern day Abraham Lincoln, who was the 16th President of The United States and who engineered its 1861-1865 Civil War.

Like Obama, Lincoln was elected during one of the most divisive periods of American history with the issue then being over the rights of the individual States versus the central federal government in regards to slavery.

Lincoln, who had proclaimed prior to his becoming President that “eliminating every last black person from American soil would be “a glorious consummation,” and who in his First Inaugural Address stated “I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so,” nevertheless forced his nation into civil war and became the first leader of the United States to suspend its Constitution and rule with dictatorial powers.

Today many Lincoln scholars and Obama supporters, reports the Canadian Free Press, say that Lincoln saved the Constitution by suspending constitutional liberty in the North for the entire duration of his administration. He supposedly “had to destroy constitutional liberty in order to save it.”

Lincoln further regarded the US Constitution as an unnecessary impediment to his political ambitions by exhibiting his total disregard for the law of the land (the law of America’s founders) by launching a military invasion against the South without the consent of the US Congress.

Lincoln suspended habeas corpus and imprisoned thousands without trial for opposing his political policies, censored communications and even imprisoned numerous publishers of newspapers who wrote in opposition of his tactics, confiscated firearms, and as this article warns: “Is any of this beginning to sound familiar?

So today, this bulletin continues, Obama has become the first President in American history to declare he will not negotiate with his equal counterparts in the US Congress, has ordered Federal workers to “make life as difficult for people as we can,” has suspended all oversight of his massive NSA spying apparatus has the most terrible and feared secret police force since the Cold War, and controls over 120,000 armed Federal agents he can unleash upon his people at a moments notice and that has been described as “equally as powerful as the US military”.

And in its summation, this bulletin warns, with Obama now “secure in his bunker,” threatening priests with arrest if they minister to US soldiers, and US banks stuffing ATMs with 20-30% more cash in case of panicked withdrawals, these GRU warnings of a “Big Event” soon to occur in the United States cannot be dismissed as they may, in fact, point to a complete overturning of America in the coming weeks.

Pre-Event Developments

Irrationally, the Illuminazi faction of the Cabal has triggered a partial government shutdown in the United States, hoping to prepare ground for martial law later down the road. Needless to say, their plans will NOT be allowed to succeed and their actions have only resulted in an important wave of mass awakening instead.

It will be interesting to see what happens with that situation on October 17th when the US government runs out of money to pay its bills. The lunar eclipse on October 18th is the entry point into a new Window of Opportunity with an increased probability of the Event as we head into a solar magnetic field reversal later this year.

Finally we are experiencing mass awakening in the United States, which is a crucial prerequisite for the Event:
The Positive Military is supporting this:
And there are already groups connected with the Positive Military preparing for the Event:
It has been communicated from the Resistance Movement and the Positive Military that they will NOT trigger the Event between October 11th and October 13th this year.

Pentagon warns to expect “Radical” Change in US Government soon

BarackObaaama

A highly troubling “urgent bulletin” issued earlier today by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) states that it has received information from the Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU) warning to expect a “radical change” in the government of the United States, possibly within the next fortnight, based on information they have received from “highly placed” sources within the Pentagon.

According to this MoFA bulletin, GRU intelligence assests were notified by their Pentagon counterparts this past week that President Barack Obama is preparing to invoke the powers given to him under 50 USC Chapter 13 to hold that various American States are now in a “state of insurrection” thus allowing him to invoke the National Emergencies Act under 50 USC § 1621 and invoke the highly controversial “continuity of government” plan for the United States allowing him, in essence, to rule with supreme powers.

Specifically, this bulletin says, Obama will invoke 50 USC § 212 that states: “ the President shall have declared by proclamation that the laws of the United States are opposed, and the execution thereof obstructed, by combinations too powerful to be suppressed by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings”

The specific laws being opposed by these “combinations too powerful to be suppressed by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings,” that Obama will outline in his reasoning’s for declaring a state of emergency, this bulletin continues, are the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), otherwise known as Obamacare.

The NDAA is opposed by many US States, this bulletin says, with California joining Alaska and Virginia this past week in passing a law making it illegal to be enforced in their territory, and with many other States, also, preparing to do the same.

The specific portions of the NDAA law being opposed by these US States allows for the indefinite detention without charges or trial of all American citizens and allows for their assassination should Obama order it.

The PPACA (Obamacare) law is, likewise, opposed by over half of the US States and has led to an American “shutdown” this past week that has closed 15% of their government, but has left fully 85% of it still open.

To the specific “combinations too powerful” Obama will cite in his declaration of National Emergency as being needed to be defeated by extraordinary measures, the MoFA says, is a faction of the US House of Representatives popularly known as the Republican Tea Party whom the President and his allies have likened to “hostage takers” and “political terrorists.”

Obama’s greatest fear, and reason(s) for declaring a National State of Emergency, this bulletin continues, was outlined yesterday by his US Treasury Department who released a report yesterday warning of potentially “catastrophic” damage should Congress fail to raise the debt ceiling and prevent the government from defaulting on its debt.

As the current US government shutdown crisis and debt ceiling fight have now merged, the MoFA warns in this bulletin, Obama further warned yesterday that an impasse on the debt ceiling beyond 17 October, when the US government will be essentially out of cash to pay its bills, could start a downward economic plunge worse than the recession of five years ago – with credit markets seizing up, the dollar’s value plummeting and US interest rates soaring and even coming close to the brink of such an unprecedented default that could roil both domestic and foreign financial markets.

Preparing to oppose Obama, should he, in fact, declare a National State of Emergency, the GRU grimly warns, is the US military who themselves are preparing to invoke 50 USC § 842 which allows them to protect America from “The Communist Party of the United States, or any successors of such party regardless of the assumed name, whose object or purpose is to overthrow the Government of the United States, or the government of any State, Territory, District, or possession thereof…”

Not known to many Americans is that the Progressive movement Obama belongs to, and whose media acolyte “presstitutes” swept into office, have long been associated with the Communist Party.

And, as the World Net Daily News Service reported this past August, John C. Drew, Ph.D., the award-winning political scientist, met Obama in 1980 and wrote in 2011: “[Obama] believed that the economic stresses of the Carter years meant revolution was still imminent. The election of Reagan was simply a minor set-back in terms of the coming revolution. … Obama was blindly sticking to the simple Marxist theory … ‘there’s going to be a revolution.’ Obama said, ‘we need to be organized and grow the movement.’ In Obama’s view, our role must be to educate others so that we might usher in more quickly this inevitable revolution.”

With Obama’s “revolution” now at hand, the GRU warns in this bulletin, it is critical to note that that United States, unlike other nations, have all of their elected officials and military personal swear allegiance to the US Constitution, and not to their government or its leaders.

The most recent example of this conflict between Obama and the US military, the GRU further states, was in Egypt when the Obama regime supported Muslim Brotherhood was overthrown by the Pentagon backed Egyptian military, and who, like the United States, makes its political and military leaders swear allegiance to their constitution, not to any of its leaders.

As many in America now know that these present times are not the normal activities of a government seeking peace and prosperity, and as dozens of undisclosed Obama Presidential directives that define US national security policy and task government agencies are still unknown either to the public or, as a rule, to the US Congress, this bulletin warns in its summation that with each passing day American can be more likened to a communist dictatorship than a functioning democracy.

So bad, in fact, has the United States become that one of its legendary reporters, Pulitzer Prize winner Seymour Hersh wrote this past week that the Obama administration lies systematically yet none of the leviathans of American media, the TV networks or big print titles, challenge him.

Even worse, and in a further Sovietization of American Life by the Obama regime, the US this past week refused to grant entry visas to internationally renowned authors Ilija Trojanov and Ernst Titovets who were invited to speak at conferences, and which Justin Raimondo of the highly respected Antiwar.com blog calls “part of a disturbing pattern of repression that all points to one ineluctable conclusion: the United States is the Soviet Union of the new millennium – an ideological state with global ambitions that holds itself up as the epitome of “freedom” and yet is the single most powerful enemy of liberty worldwide.

You should be concerned: Obama warns world markets there is no guarantee U.S. will avoid defaulting on its debts

barack

  • ‘Exasperated’ president says shutdown feud may prevent debt solution
  • He said: ‘When you have a faction willing to default, we are in trouble’
  • Says he is not willing to water down healthcare bill to break deadlock
  • Held crunch meeting with Wall Street bankers over budget impasse
  • Goldman Sachs chief: ‘Consequences of default are extremely adverse’

An ‘exasperated’ Barack Obama offered no guarantees the U.S. would avoid an unprecedented default during a crisis meeting with Wall Street bankers yesterday.

The President said it could not be taken for granted that the political infighting over the federal shutdown would ease in time to raise the legal debt limit before the October 17 deadline.

Speaking on CNBC last night, he said: ‘I think this time is different. I think they should be concerned.

‘When you have a situation in which a faction is willing to default on U.S. obligations, then we are in trouble.’

Chief executives from major financial institutions met Obama over the first budget impasse for 17 years in a row over healthcare and finances.

They warned of ‘adverse’ consequences if the U.S. government agencies remain closed and if lawmakers failed to raise the debt ceiling by mid-October.

After the meeting, Goldman Sachs chief executive Lloyd Blankfein implicitly criticised Republicans for using their opposition to Obama’s healthcare law as a weapon that could lead to a devastating default.

‘You can litigate these policy issues. You can re-litigate these policy issues in a political forum, but they shouldn’t use the threat of causing the U.S. to fail on its … obligations to repay on its debt as a cudgel,’ said Mr Blankfein.

Congressional Republicans and the White House are in a stalemate over government funding – chiefly as a tactic in the Republican campaign to stop Obama’s health insurance reforms.

The President stressed to congressional leaders last night that he will not negotiate with Republicans over a government shutdown or raising the U.S. debt limit, the White House said.

After more than an hour of talks at the White House that did not lead to a breakthrough, the White House issued a statement saying that Obama remains hopeful that ‘common sense will prevail’ in the budget stand-off.

‘The president made clear to the leaders that he is not going to negotiate over the need for Congress to act to reopen the government or to raise the debt limit to pay the bills Congress has already incurred,’ the White House said.

House Republicans have been demanding that Obama agree to cut funding or delay implementation of his signature healthcare law in exchange for their agreement to approve spending measures to reopen the government.

Obama held talks in the Oval Office with the top U.S. Republican, House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner, the Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, the top Democrat in Congress, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi.

It was their first face-to-face talks since a government shutdown began on Tuesday.

While the U.S. government closure has already had repercussions from frustrated tourists turned away from national parks to cancelled stops on Obama’s Asia  trip, the deadline for raising the nation’s debt limit poses a much graver risk.

If the U.S. Congress fails to raise the $16.7trillion (€12.3trillion) borrowing cap, the U.S. would go  into default, likely triggering financial market shockwaves around the world.

The President stressed to congressional leaders last night that he will not negotiate with Republicans over a government shutdown or raising the U.S. debt limit, the White House said.

It was their first face-to-face talks since a government shutdown began on Tuesday.

While the U.S. government closure has already had repercussions from frustrated tourists turned away from national parks to cancelled stops on Obama’s Asia  trip, the deadline for raising the nation’s debt limit poses a much graver risk.

If the U.S. Congress fails to raise the $16.7trillion (€12.3trillion) borrowing cap, the U.S. would go  into default, likely triggering financial market shockwaves around the world.

‘There’s no debate that the seriousness of the U.S. not paying its debts… is the most serious thing we have, and we witnessed that in August 2011 and you saw the ramifications: a slowdown in the economy,’ said Brian Moynihan, chief executive of Bank of America.

The country came close to default during a similar political crisis in 2011. That stand-off prompted  the first downgrade of the U.S. credit rating.

Conservative Republicans have signalled they will take the same tactic on the debt limit this year as they did on government funding by seeking to dismantle or put off the healthcare law. President Obama has declined to negotiate over raising the debt limit.

Business leaders made clear the financial world wanted to avoid the risk of the government not paying its bills.

‘There is precedent for a government shutdown. There’s no precedent for default. We’re the most important economy in the world. We’re the reserve currency of the world,’ said Mr Blankfein.

‘Business leaders want Washington to understand ‘the long-term consequences of a shutdown … certainly the  consequences of a debt ceiling  [not being raised], and we all agree that those are extremely adverse,’ he said.

Michael Corbat of Citigroup and others were scheduled to attend the session.

‘I think both sides have a pretty good appreciation for what’s at stake here,’ said Mr Corbat. He said the executives were ‘trying to encourage both sides to engage.’

Obama is scheduled to meet the top leaders of Congress at the White House. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew is to brief the leaders on the impacts of the threat of default in 2011 and the economic imperative for Congress to act to raise the debt ceiling.

Meltdown in Washington: President Obama Reported Sedated Following Emotional Breakdown

PUTIN-Shades

By Nigel J. Covington III
Editor-in-Chief

<National Report> Late this afternoon White House insiders leaked information stating the president has suffered a mental breakdown and is presently resting and under a doctors care. This afternoon the National Report received three calls on our nationwide hot tip line (206) 222-1975. Two of the three callers are insiders known to the National Report to be reliable confidential informants.

The caller unknown to this publication is a low level employee who could only state that there was some kind of a medical emergency involving President Obama. The other two callers known to us are both support personnel within the Obama administration. Both confirmed this week has been a political disaster for the president and this has taken a tremendous toll on him.
Russian President Vladimir Putin Has Recently Shamed Obama on the World Stage

Earlier this week Russian President Vladimir Putin derailed the president’s plan to bomb Syria and bury the U.S. in another war the people want nothing to do with and can ill afford to pay for. Putin negotiated a deal with Syria for control over its chemical weapons providing a peaceful resolution to a certain US attack. With the world watching Obama was forced to stand down causing him a great deal of shame and public embarrassment.

Before Putin extended the olive branch of diplomacy to resolve the Syrian crisis, he also agreed to grant asylum to Edward Snowden, the man who stole US secret documents that exposed the NSA secret program already underway and approved by President Obama to spy on all US citizens. Not only did Snowden expose the top secret NSA program to the world, he escaped US authorities in China and arrived in Russia where he repeatedly bitch-slapped the president by releasing more US secrets to the media.

Safely in the arms of Mother Russia Snowden, showed the world people how helpless and weak the Obama administration is at being utter failures at diplomacy, tact and statesmanship. While Putin and Obama were engaged in “negotiations” over Snowden’s extradition, Snowden and Putin were engaged in conversation about Snowden’s defecting to Russia.
Whistle-blower Edward Snowden Exposed Obama-NSA scandal

In one of the most crippling moments of President Obama’s tenure Putin cut a deal with Snowden for asylum giving the Russian president tons of other US secrets. Edward Snowden now lives safely beyond the reach of Obama’s dirty scandal ridden administration who would’ve imprisoned or killed Snowden without a trial clearly disregarding all of Snowden’s civil liberties and denying him the opportunity to explain his actions before a court of law who would determine Snowden’s fate… not Obama. Then Putin told Obama ‘no’ on Snowden’s extradition completely shaming the president in front of the world.

In the past couple weeks the big winners on the world stage have been Syria, Russia, Snowden and Putin; all at the expense of America’s impotent and fraudulent president.

Remember what Obama “sold” the American people in his 2008 bid for the presidency? Obama the “agent of revolution” guaranteed “change” instead he lied to everyone by promising the “most transparent” government – “no special interest” – “a new way of doing business” – “most honest” – “most righteous” – “the new beginning” – then there was the abortion of Obama’s world tour… what a national mortification. And today how many of these promises has the president kept?
President Obama – Epic Failure Shames America

Then today’s Gallup poll results have been absolutely devastating for the president and the Democratic party. Obama’s approval rating dropped to the lowest in presidential history, and support from the Democratic Party plummeted more than 25% from this time last year.

Our sources confirm late this afternoon a doctor was summoned to the oval office and remained with the president for about a half-hour. When the doctor emerged he was heard to say the president needed rest and would be sedated once he was moved to his bed. The White House has remained silent and has yet to make a statement publicly.http://nationalreport.net/meltdown-washington-president-obama-reported-sedated-following-emotional-breakdown/know-it/

The White House has told federal agencies to prepare for a partial government shutdown on Oct 1

BarackObama image

The White House has told federal agencies to prepare for a partial government shutdown on Oct. 1, as time continues to run out on a Congressional deal with no clear end in sight.

The Office of Management and Budget sent a memo to agency heads on Tuesday urging them to be “prepared for the possibility of a lapse.”

“The Administration does not want a lapse in appropriations to occur,” OMB Director Sylvia Burwell wrote in the memo. “There is enough time for Congress to prevent a lapse in appropriations, and the Administration is willing to work with Congress.”

The memo comes as the possibility of a government shutdown has increased over the past few days. On Tuesday, Potomac Research Group’s Greg Valliere put the odds of a shutdown at 25%, up from 10% a month ago.

Chris Krueger, a Washington analyst at Guggenheim Securities, raised the odds of a shutdown to 40% on Wednesday. And his 60% odds on the other side were based on “blind faith, because there is little to no evidence to suggest that the House, Senate, and White House can agree to a stopgap measure in time.”

House Speaker John Boehner announced Wednesday that the House will look to pass a continuing-resolution bill that keeps funding at current sequestration levels and strips funding for the Affordable Care Act. It will go to the Senate, where it will be dead on arrival. And President Barack Obama would not sign the bill into law.

Meanwhile, Obama made an impassioned plea before the Business Roundtable in Washington on Wednesday, where he urged some of the nation’s top corporate executives to implore Republicans to avoid brinksmanship on a shutdown and over the debt ceiling.

“It is going to be important for all of you I think over the next several weeks to understand what’s at stake and to make sure that you are using your influence in whatever way you can to get back to what used to be called regular order around here,” Obama said,

“Doing things in a way that reflect the genuine, messy negotiations of democracy but do not promise apocalypse every three months. And I think this is the time for us to say once and for all we can’t afford these kinds of plays.”

I Too Have Become Disillusioned

Newsweek 819

THE WASHINGTON POST ATTACKS OBAMA

[NOTE: The following would of little interest if I had written it. In fact I already have written it –– dozens of times. The remarkable thing is that finally, the Washington Post and Newsweek, both recognized as highly liberal, have seen fit –– at long last –– to print an article attacking President Obama  –– a newsworthy phenomenon in and of itself. The unpleasant truths about our President and his agenda are starting to trickle through the “protective wall” built around him by the liberal media. ~ FreeThinke]
By Matt Patterson ~ columnist for The Washington Post, The New York Post, The San Francisco Examiner [lightly edited with emphasis added by FT]
Years from now, historians may regard the 2008 election of Barack Obama as an inscrutable and disturbing phenomenon, the result of a baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the Middle Ages. How, they will wonder, did a man so devoid of professional accomplishment beguile so many into thinking he could manage the world’s largest economy, direct the world’s most powerful military, execute the world’s most consequential job?
Imagine a future historian examining Obama’s pre-presidential life: ushered into and through the Ivy League, despite unremarkable grades and test scores along the way; a cushy non-job as a “community organizer;” a brief career as a state legislator devoid of legislative achievement –– nearly devoid of his attention in fact, so often did he vote “present;” and finally an unaccomplished single term in the United States Senate, the entirety of which was devoted to his presidential ambitions.
He left no academic legacy in academia, authored no signature legislation as a legislator. And then there is the matter of his troubling associations: the white-hating, America-loathing preacher who for decades served as Obama’s “spiritual mentor;” an actual real-life terrorist who served as Obama’s colleague and political sponsor. It is easy to imagine a future historian looking at it all and asking: how on Earth could such a man have been elected president?
Not content to wait for history … Norman Podhoretz addressed the question recently in the Wall Street Journal: To be sure, no white candidate who had close associations with an outspoken anti-American  like Jeremiah Wright and an unrepentant domestic terrorist like Bill Ayers, would have lasted a single day. But because Mr. Obama was black, and therefore entitled in the eyes of liberal Dom to have hung out with protesters against various American injustices, even if they were a bit extreme, he was given a pass. Let that sink in: Obama was given a pass –– held to a lower standard –– because of the color of his skin.
Podhoretz continues: And in any case, what did such ancient history matter when he was also so articulate and elegant and –– as he himself had said –– “non-threatening,” all of which gave him a fighting chance to become the first black president and thereby to lay the curse of racism to rest?
Podhoretz puts his finger, I think, on the animating pulse of the Obama phenomenon –– Affirmative Action. Not in the legal sense, perhaps, but certainly in the motivating sentiment behind all affirmative action laws and regulations, which are designed primarily to make … white liberals, feel good about themselves.
Unfortunately, minorities often suffer so that whites can pat themselves on the back. Liberals routinely admit minorities to schools for which they are not qualified, yet take no responsibility for the inevitable poor performance and high drop-out rates which follow. Liberals don’t care if these minority students fail; liberals aren’t around to witness the emotional devastation and deflated self-esteem resulting from the racist policy that is affirmative action. Yes, racist. Holding someone to a separate standard merely because of the color of his skin –– that’s affirmative action in a nutshell, and if that isn’t racism, nothing is.
And that is what America did to Obama. True, Obama himself was never troubled by his lack of achievements, but why would he be? As many have noted, Obama was told he was good enough for Columbia, despite undistinguished grades at Occidental; he was told he was good enough for the US Senate despite a mediocre record in Illinois; he was told he was good enough to be president despite no record at all in the Senate. All his life, every step of the way, Obama was told he was good enough for the next step, in spite of ample evidence to the contrary.
What could this breed if not the sort of empty narcissism on display every time Obama speaks? In 2008, many who agreed that he lacked executive qualifications nonetheless raved about Obama’s oratory skills, intellect, and cool character. Those people –– conservatives included –– ought now to be deeply embarrassed.
The man thinks and speaks in the hoariest of clichés, and that’s when he has his Teleprompter in front of him; when the prompter is absent, he can barely think or speak at all. Not one original idea has ever issued from his mouth –– it’s all warmed-over Marxism –– ideas that have failed over and over again for a hundred years.
And what about his character? Obama is constantly blaming anything and everything else for his troubles: Bush did it; it was bad luck; I inherited this mess. Remember, he wanted the job, campaigned for the task. It is embarrassing to see a president so willing to advertise his own powerlessness, so comfortable with his own incompetence. But really, what were we to expect? The man has never been held responsible for anything, so how do we expect him to act responsibly?
In short: our president is a small-minded man, with neither the temperament nor the intellect to handle his job. When you understand that, and only when you understand that, will the current erosion of liberty and prosperity make sense. It could not have gone otherwise with such a man in the Oval Office.
~ § ~
Remember please the foregoing was published in The Washington Post. That makes it extraordinary. Frankly, even I thought some of it excessively condemnatory. I also wonder how Mr. Patterson could know that President Obama’s grades were unremarkable, since most of us who do not respect the president’s political philosophy and worldview have complained for years that his academic record has been officially hidden from public view? Let us pray this new, cruelly critical approach will not serve merely to increase the sympathy vote for the foundering fiasco now occupying the White House.

 

G20 Ends Abruptly as Obama Calls Putin a Jackass

September 6, 2013

ST. PETERSBURG (The Borowitz Report)—Hopes for a positive G20 summit crumbled today as President Obama blurted to Russia’s Vladimir Putin at a joint press appearance, “Everyone here thinks you’re a jackass.”

The press corps appeared stunned by the uncharacteristic outburst from Mr. Obama, who then unleashed a ten-minute tirade at the stone-faced Russian President.

“Look, I’m not just talking about Snowden and Syria,” Mr. Obama said. “What about Pussy Riot? What about your anti-gay laws? Total jackass moves, my friend.”

As Mr. Putin narrowed his eyes in frosty silence, Mr. Obama seemed to warm to his topic.

“If you think I’m the only one who feels this way, you’re kidding yourself,” Mr. Obama said, jabbing his finger in the direction of the Russian President’s face. “Ask Angela Merkel. Ask David Cameron. Ask the Turkish guy. Every last one of them thinks you’re a dick.”

Shortly after Mr. Obama’s volcanic performance, Mr. Putin released a terse official statement, reading, “I should be afraid of this skinny man? I wrestle bears.”

After one day of meetings, the G20 nations voted unanimously on a resolution that said maybe everyone should just go home.

The Obama Administration’s contempt for the Constitution is reaching unprecedented heights.

Right now, John Kerry is using his position to argue that Obama has a so-called ‘right’ to take the country to war without the consent of Congress!

The Secretary told at least three separate media outlets that Obama has the power to go to war alone, presumably even if Congress votes against entering into war with Syria in the coming days.

Speaking to George Stephanopoulos, Kerry had the audacity to say:

“The President of the United States has the right to take this action, doesn’t have to go to Congress, but he does so with the belief – and this is why I think it’s courageous – the president knows that America is stronger when we act in unity.”

Can you believe this? This claim is in flagrant opposition to the U.S. Constitution!

Obama has zero power to declare or take actions of war without the express approval of the U.S. Congress! This is made clear in Article I, Section 8 of the “Supreme Law” – the one that Obama and Kerry swore to uphold and protect.

Bogus claims like these not only smack of tyranny, but tell us that the Obama Administration is prepared to do whatever it takes – with or without Congress – to take our nation to war, even before the facts are settled!

Right now we need to demand lawmakers to prepare to remove Obama from office if he decides to take any actions of war without their approval!

Obama has not the power to drop a single bomb or provide the rebels with a single bullet without Congressional authorization!

Take action! Blast faxes to Congress demanding that they commit toimpeachconvict, and remove Obama from office if he engages in any unconstitutional military action in Syria!

“Engaging our military in Syria when no direct threat to the United States exists and without prior congressional authorization would violate the separation of powers that is clearly delineated in the Constitution.” – Rep. Scott Rigell (R-VA)

Obama Wants War

It is clear that Barack Obama wants to take our nation to war with Syria.

On Friday, he said he’s looking at taking “limited, narrow” actions against the forces of Bashar al-Assad, and on Saturday he said, “I believe I have the authority to carry out this military action without specific congressional authorization.”

This is a major constitutional problem — only Congress is vested with the power to declare war!

A bipartisan coalition of 116 House members sent Obama a letter urging him to refrain from taking actions of war without their authorization, but Obama doesn’t seem to care. In fact, he is dangerously close to single-handedly taking our nation to war in a manner that the Supreme Law prohibits.

This is why we need to mobilize right away and tell lawmakers to prepare to prepare to remove Obama from office if he takes engages us in an undeclared, unconstitutional war!

“For too long, the legislature’s responsibility to authorize military force has been overlooked. It is time that we uphold the Constitution, which makes it clear in Article I, Section 8 that Congress alone holds the power to declare war.” – Rep. Walter Jones (R-NC).

H. Con. Res. 107

Any military action ordered by Obama in the absence of a Congressional Declaration of War is an impeachable offense in violation of the Constitution and the War Powers Resolution of 1973.

That’s why Rep. Walter Jones introduced H. Con. Res. 40 to prohibit Obama from “initiating war against Syria without express congressional authorization.”

The crux of the bill is as follows:

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That it is the sense of Congress that-

(1) the President is prohibited under the Constitution from the offensive use of the United States Armed Forces in Syria without prior express authorization by an Act of Congress or without a prior express appropriation of funds for that purpose by an Act of Congress; and

(2) the President’s defiance of those constitutional limitations on his authority to initiate war would constitute an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under article II, section 4 of the Constitution.

America can’t afford to go to war without debate, and Obama is bound by oath to honor that fact. With the exception of our nation being physically attacked, the President cannot wage war; he can only preside over war once it has been declared by the People’s Congress. Should Obama fail to recognize this, Congress must swiftly remove him from his presidential seat.

Take action and call as many U.S. lawmakers as you can – see our Congressional Directory – and make sure you add your name to our petition here.

P.S. Obama cannot constitutional “wage war” – only Congress can. Tell your lawmakers to poise themselves to impeach Obama if he decides to authorize military action in Syria without Congress’ permission. Sign our petition and send free letters here.

Marginalia: While the United States is right to condemn the use of chemical weapons, the simple fact is: we still don’t know who is responsible for their recent employment.

The “official” position claims Assad is responsible, although there is evidence that the Free Syrian Army committed the acts.

Until this is settled, no military actions should be initiated.

Take action! Blast faxes to Congress demanding that they commit toimpeachconvict, and remove Obama from office if he engages in any unconstitutional military action in Syria!
