Restore America to the Constitutional federal republic representing the will of We the People!

There are fundamental flaws in how American government operates today,
contrary to the Constitution and the vision of a representative republican form of governance.
I intend doing something about it: by educating and informing others who
are not even aware of the dangers.

They Can Not Say Anything More
"Against whom is President Barack Obama running in November?
Mitt Romney has just one brief, silent cameo in the Obama campaign's new seven-minute ad. The presumptive Republican nominee gets about as much screen time as former President George W. Bush and less than tea party demonstrators or top congressional Republican leaders like House Speaker John Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
"Instead of working together to lift America up, Republicans were waging a campaign to tear the president down," the narrator intones, as conservative firebrands Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity appear in archival footage. Then comes Romney's big moment: More than three minutes into the video, we finally get a glimpse of a photograph of him standing at what appears to be a Republican presidential debate with Texas Gov. Rick Perry and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
The video, entitled "Forward," hits home the fact that Obama inherited an historic recession. A downturn that former Federal Reserve chief Alan Greenspan describes in a news clip as a "once-in-a-century type of event." Bush is seen but not heard discussing the collapse, which the ad says resulted in the loss of 4,400,000 jobs by the time Obama took office in January 2009.
Cue footage of tea party demonstrators, some holding "Don't Tread On Me" flags, while the ad's male narrator declares that "some said America's best days were behind us." By contrast, "Obama moved quickly to push his economic stimulus" highlights the video. It shows a Bureau of Labor Statistics figure that the economy created 4.1 million new jobs between March 2010 and March 2012.
The ad touts Obama's legislative victories, including his health care law and the rewrite of rules for Wall Street "to make sure they never again wreck our economy." And, yes, it trumpets the killings of Anwar al-Awlaki—a U.S. citizen targeted for assassination in a drone strike in Yemen, and Osama bin Laden.
The campaign did not explicitly label "Forward" as its new slogan, but that didn't stop some in the media from doing so—and pointing out that it resembles MSNBC's "Lean Forward." (But perhaps it's an homage to Wisconsin's state motto, "Forward," or to the Jewish Daily Forward, or to an ad campaign by Washington, D.C.'s, problem-plagued public transportation agency?) Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt shot back on Twitter: "Funny that some in media think most people follow cable news slogans as closely as they do. Also apparently off limits: 'trust' 'fair' 'vote.'"
In a press release, the Obama campaign describes the video as "an important grassroots organizing tool" and says that it will be played when the president and first lady Michelle Obama hold rallies together in Ohio and Virginia next Saturday.
By Olivier Knox"
The Obama (Kill Order) makes it perfectly clear that Romney never has been an issue or a problem of any kind... whatsoever, which is why the Knox article names anyone but the candidate that has explained the solutions to the problems our nation faces. That candidate has now been declared the winner of the Iowa Caucus fiasco, after the RNC tried to rig the election for their favorite son, Willard Mittington Romney.
The candidate that has explained the solutions to the problems our nation faces for a good long portion of being voted into office for 35 years is Dr. Ron Paul. His words and actions remain the same and as true as the first day he took office: he believes in the Constitution for the United States of America.

Erosion And Death Follows
How does the benefit to the few financially greedy parasites, beholding to no one and nothing-except to increase their already overflowing coffers, outweigh any benefit to the nation and it's people?
Even if the obscene wealth of these economic predators were taxed at the same rate as the wage earners of our nation, these cannibals within our society would still accumulate in a year more financial strength than the wage earners will in a working lifetime. How can Congress justify legislation and policy that further lines the pockets of these sociopathic multi-million and multi-billionaires as they continue to rape the country and sell off what is left in the wreckage?
Not only, according to his released tax returns, did Romney make $42.7 million over the past two years, paying only $6.2 million in taxes which is an effective tax rate of less than 13.9% for doing nothing, he took advantage of a giant tax loophole that's available to only a very select few. It's called the carried interest loophole, or as it's often called the hedge fund manager tax loophole (in 2009 Top 10 Hedge Fund Wheels of Corporatism averaged $900,000/Hr). Why the hedge-fund carried interest tax loophole? Because; hedge fund managers, partners in real estate ventures, and private equity wheels, are the select few who can use this legal provision to escape paying what the 99.999 % of the population are forced to pay.
The fact that closing this loophole could save the nation and it's taxpayers and the deficit $15 billion by 2015, it is the percentage - usually 20% - that hedge fund managers and private equity Wheels can claim as investment, taxed at the long-term capital gain of 15% rate, instead of claiming what it actually is, fees or income, which would be taxed at what the rest of us pay, 35%.
In addition to the affront of carried interest, the maximum Gift Tax Amount a married couple can pass to their children without paying gift taxes is $10 million, but Romney paid zero gift tax on the $100 million trust funds he set up for his sons. The Romney's avoided $31 million in gift tax that 99.999 % of the population would have had to pay if they did the same thing, while simultaneously accumulating and distributing financial strength within their family!
According to David Cay Johnston, the Romney's "gave their sons some of their carried interest. And because the carried interest is not an ownership, it is a right to receive profits, Congress lets you value that gift at zero".
In a nutshell, top hedge fund managers, gifted with a much lower tax rate, who do not produce anything tangible, or, many argue, anything of any value whatsoever, make more hourly, than most Americans will earn in a lifetime.
This economic cannibalistic presidential candidate, who left the company 13 years ago, still receives a share of the firm’s “carried interest” profits – taxed at the same low rate. He has now gifted his sons with the financial strength and the lesson that the country he raped is there for his sons to rape: the increase by the number of sons of economic cannibalistic Americans. It's the gift that ever continues increasing to those few who receive it.
Like the after effects Of uncaring clear cutting loggers in the forest, erosion and death follows.

Bigger Sharper Teeth or Romney's Dirty Dozen
Willard Mittington Romney the wheeling dealing corporate raider has announced his foreign policy dream team of professionals. Not to mention the ugly truth in your face, the only real problem with this group of torture, murder, and terror oriented specialists, is their membership in the Council on Foreign Relations. This marks them as members of the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderberg Group, Just as it marks Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State and the fraud occupying the presidency. I wonder if Americans are paying attention and becoming just a bit uneasy about the RNC's favorite son and for what he just might be preparing.
Now that Romney has shown that his teeth are much sharper and bigger than Bush's were and the American public has been conditioned to the 'forever war' for ten plus years, you should be able to see this shark for exactly what he is: the next and possibly last phase, if he takes office, of the New World Order's plans for the destruction of America. Now you now why the kill order out of the White House only ordered action against Dr. Ron Paul and no one else. Obama, Romney, and Gingrich who would say anything to sway votes are on a team being run from the Bilderberg Group and higher. What does any of this say about the motives of the RNC?
"CFR MEMBER MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES HIS FOREIGN POLICY TEAM THE GOP HAS CHOSEN ? / CFR MEMBER MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES HIS FOREIGN POLICY TEAM. GUESS WHO'S ON IT?
by William Wallace 3rd Armor Division, March 16, 2012, 8:30am
WELL REGULATED AMERICAN MILITIAS
Generally, the team is quite neo-conservative, indicating the continuation of Bush’s foreign policy.
Ron Paul is the "only" 2012 presidential candidate who is not a member of the CFR.
Romney’s foreign policy views generally align with those of the Bush administration. He sees Islamic fundamentalists, or “jihadists,” as the most pressing threat to Israel/the United States. He has focused his foreign policy platform on doubling defense spending, forging “global networks of intelligence and domestic law enforcement,”
http://www.cfr.org/experts/world/mitt-romney/b13226
Late last week CFR member, and GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney released the names of his foreign policy and national security advisors just in time for his Friday address on America’s foreign policy. He effused over his selection:
"I am deeply honored to have the counsel of this extraordinary group of diplomats, experts and statesmen. Their remarkable experience, wisdom and depth of knowledge will be critical to ensuring that the 21st Century is another American Century".His campaign continues to be plagued with an increasing chorus of doubters about his conservative posture. His claim to have balanced the budget of Massachusetts without raising taxes was found to be false.
Critics note that the latest announcement by Romney of his advisors should finally put to rest any idea that he represents conservative or Tea Party values (whatever that is). Analysts note that it should be more than abundantly clear that Romney has little or no interest in deviating in the slightest from the foreign policy trajectory the country is currently on. If he does waver, he’ll have plenty of pressure from the elitists surrounding him to stay the path to building the U.S. empire abroad with America's blood and treasure. In his article entitled, “Obama Will Win If Republicans Pick Establishment Candidate,” author Gerald Celente said the Republican establishment is following “a suicidal strategy that’s stranger than fiction. It’s as though the Republican campaign has been devised by insidious Democratic infiltrators.”
He named the following people to his board of advisors:
Romney's Team Member's
1.Dov Zakheim - (Israeli Dual Citizen)CFR Member, Senior Advisor at the Center for Strategic and International Studies; Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) (2001-2004); Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Planning and Resources (1985-1987).
2.Robert Kagan, a Neo-conservative (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member, surprise! Syndicated Columnist; Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution in the Center on United States and Europe; Board Member of the Foreign Policy Initiative Chairman of the Chertoff Group; United States Secretary of Homeland Security (2005-2009); Judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (2003-2005).
3.Cofer Black - Torture Specialist Born 1950, Stamford, CT, High school at Canterbury prep school, college at University of Southern California Master's of International Relations, USC, 1974. Joined CIA clandestine service in 1974, served 6 foreign tours, mostly in Africa. CIA station chief in Khartoum, Sudan, 1993-94, when bin Laden was there. Helped capture Carlos the Jackal. Director of CIA's Counter-terrorism Center (CTC), 1999-2001 After 9/11, "led the hunt" for Osama bin Laden, including at Tora Bora. State Department ambassador-at-large for Counterterrorism, 2002-04 Vice-chairman, Blackwater USA, 2005-present Principal, 2006-present, Complete Intelligence Solutions, a Blackwater spin-off providing security data and services for the private sector Advised Romney presidential campaign on national security issues, 2007-08. Cofer Black's role in the United States torture regime was threefold: he ran well-funded secret operations throughout Afghanistan and Pakistan as a CIA warlord; he oversaw our country's early development and implementation of "enhanced interrogation" techniques, renditions, black sites, and disappearances around the world; and he privatized murderous violence with Blackwater USA and other corporate ventures. Black's proposal for ungloving the CIA, which was approved by George Bush and CIA director George Tenet in a Memorandum of Understanding soon after 9/11, called for Black to lead a private, secret war in Afghanistan against the Taliban and Al Qaeda. He asked his agents to bring him the heads of al Qaida men "on sticks," and insisted publicly that they could only be stopped when "flies are walking on their eyeballs." Among Black's warlord-like responsibilities was "jointness"--cooperation with military officials to extend military operations into extralegal savagery, as when interrogating prisoners inside storage crates at Bagram Air Force Base near Kabul or hunting down bin Laden at Tora Bora. When Cofer Black later blamed the military for the Tora Bora fiasco--planting his accusations via a "deep background" story in the Washington Post--Donald Rumsfeld had him fired. Black implements SERE tortures, disappearances, renditions, Black Sites. Cofer Black systematized torture by enlisting psychologists Bruce Jessen and James Mitchell in a program to adapt SERE techniques--tortures used by Cold War-era regimes to elicit false confessions for propaganda--for detainee interrogation. Techniques eventually perfected at Guantanamo were evident early on in Black's Afghanistan. He also used CIA resources around the world to conduct disappearances and torturous interrogations at secret Black Sites, and he made liberal use of the practice of rendition, turning prisoners over to foreign governments willing to torture them. Black privatizes murder and torture and brings it into Republican politics. After being forced out of government, Black's adventures in torture and thuggery continued in the private sector. He helped lead Blackwater USA, a company accused of killing dozens of Iraqi civilians in association with taxpayer-funded security contracts. The company he founded with Blackwater money in 2006, Total Intelligence Solutions, extends his work beyond war zones to domestic venues, providing corporate security on the home front for American corporate leaders who seek information about and protection from enemies of all kinds. Republican presidentical candidate Mitt Romney sought out Black's services and counsel, naming him a national security adviser and attributing to him the notion that waterboarding should not publicly be labeled torture and doing so would hurt America.
4.Michael Chertoff - (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member, Chairman of the Chertoff Group; United States Secretary of Homeland Security (2005-2009); Judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (2003-2005)
5.Eliot Cohen - (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member, Director of the Strategic Studies Program at the School of Advanced International Studies, Johns Hopkins University; Counselor to the United States Department of State (2007-2009); Defense Policy Advisory Board Member (2001-2009)
6.Michael Hayden - CFR Member, Principal of the Chertoff Group; Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (2006-2009); Director of the (NSA)National Security Agency (1999-2005). Hmmmm
7.Eric Edelman - (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member, Visiting Scholar at School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University; Under Secretary of Defense for Policy (2005-2009); Principal Deputy Assistant to the Vice President for National Security Affairs (2001-2003)
8.John Lehman - (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member, Chairman and Founding Partner, J. F. Lehman & Co.; National Security Advisory Counsel for the Center for Security Policy; Secretary of the Navy (1981-1987); Member of the 9/11 Commission.
9.Evan Feigenbaum - (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member, Co-Chair Executive Director of the Paulson Institute; Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia (2006-2009); Member for East Asia, Secretary of State’s Policy Planning Staff (2001-2006)
10.Aaron Friedberg - (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member, Co-Chair Professor of Politics and International Affairs at Princeton University; Deputy Assistant for National Security Affairs and Director of Policy Planning, Office of the Vice President (2003-2005)
11.Kent Lucken - (Israeli Dual Citizen) CFR Member,Co-Chair/Director at Citigroup Private Bank in Boston; where he provides global wealth management services to international entrepreneurs, private equity firms and several of the largest privately-held corporations in the U.S. Prior to joining Citigroup, Mr. Lucken worked at Robertson Stephens Investment Bank and he served fourteen years with the U.S. Department of State. Former Foreign Service Officer; Board Member for the US-Asia Institute.
12.Kristen Silverberg - (Israeli Dual Ctizen) CFR Member, Co-Chair Chief Operating Officer at Vorbeck Materials; Ambassador to the European Union (2008-2009); Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs (2005-2008)
I don't know about you, but dual citizenship is not ok with me for an ordinary citizen. But if you hold an official position that demands that you put American interests above all else -- if you should look transparent and fair to the rest of the world regarding your formation of Middle East foreign policies, then this is an absurd trend. Even if there were no pro-Israeli agenda, the fact that decision makers have a bias or an allegiance to one of the parties involved in the current conflict should have raised red flags long before now.
Ask yourself: How you would react to the Head of Homeland Security if he or she were a dual national with citizenship in Iran, Lebanon or Saudi Arabia? Ask yourself why you don't feel the same about Israeli dual citizenship. Then you will understand how powerful the Israeli lobby has been in "adjusting" your acceptance of their special status."

Power Grab by Dictator of National Care
The upcoming decision and ruling to be handed down by the supreme court sometime this summer will determine whether or not you will be able to find and receive proper health care. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,if upheld as constitutional, will be administered by non-medically trained people. The underlying intent of the PPACA is uniquely political in its philosophic construction and has little to do with health care or medicine and has everything to do with further weakening the legislative and judicial branches while at the same time centralizing power and control in the executive branch of our government. Little Barry is setting up the presidency as a totalitarian rulership, and with NDRP IN FORCE it can not get better it can only get worse.
"CONSTITUTIONAL LAWYER HAS READ THE ENTIRE BILL
A retired Constitutional lawyer has read the entire proposed healthcare bill. Read his conclusions and pass this on as you wish. The Truth About the Health Care Bills - Michael Connelly, Ret. Constitutional Attorney Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009. I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law. I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. What I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected.
The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business, and put everyone into a government run system. All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by federal bureaucrats, and most of them will not be health care professionals. Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled by the government.
However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface. In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no intention of providing affordable health care choices. Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated If this law or a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United States will effectively have been destroyed.
The first thing to go will be the masterfully crafted balance of power between the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the U.S. Government. The Congress will be transferring to the Obama Administration authority in a number of different areas over the lives of the American people, and the businesses they own. The irony is that the Congress doesn't have any authority to legislate in most of those areas to begin with! I defy anyone to read the text of the U.S. Constitution and find any authority granted to the members of Congress to regulate health care.
This legislation also provides for access, by the appointees of the Obama administration, of all of your personal healthcare direct violation of the specific provisions of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution information, your personal financial information, and the information of your employer, physician, and hospital. All of this is a protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures. You can also forget about the right to privacy. That will have been legislated into oblivion regardless of what the 3rd and 4th Amendments may provide...
If you decide not to have healthcare insurance, or if you have private insurance that is not deemed acceptable to the Health Choices Administrator appointed by Obama, there will be a tax imposed on you. It is called a tax instead of a fine because of the intent to avoid application of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment. However, that doesn't work because since there is nothing in the law that allows you to contest or appeal the imposition of the tax, it is definitely depriving someone of property without the due process of law.
So, there are three of those pesky amendments that the far left hate so much, out the original ten in the Bill of Rights, that are effectively nullified by this law It doesn't stop there though. The 9th Amendment that provides: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
The 10th Amendment states: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are preserved to the States respectively, or to the people. Under the provisions of this piece of Congressional handiwork neither the people nor the states are going to have any rights or powers at all in many areas that once were theirs to control. I could write many more pages about this legislation, but I think you get the idea. This is not about health care; it is about seizing power and limiting rights...
Article 6 of the Constitution requires the members of both houses of Congress to "be bound by oath or affirmation to support the Constitution.
If I was a member of Congress, I would not be able to vote for this legislation or anything like it, without feeling I was violating that sacred oath or affirmation. If I voted for it anyway, I would hope the American people would hold me accountable. For those who might doubt the nature of this threat, I suggest they consult the source, the US Constitution, and Bill of Rights. There you can see exactly what we are about to have taken from us."

If Things Were Right: Like a Phoenix Rising From The Ashes
In the vision of our founders, demonstrated by the careful word crafting in the compositions that we now call Founding Documents, the explicit limits to federal government are plain. In all of them the rights to all were equal, not that all are equal. One who works for wages, or takes up a trade or starts their own business is not equal to someone who feels those workers, trades, and businesses all must pay to support them because they are entitled. Charity is voluntary not mandatory.
Freedom is something you must both earn and pay for if you are to keep it. The rights of others cannot be infringed upon by you as you would not have your rights be infringed upon by others, without your wanting and willingness to take action to defend those rights. What right did you give to the federal government to use your tax dollars to give to foreign nations? And at what point did you feel obligated to fund "entitlement" programs for people that are not U.S. citizens or simply plain lazy Americans who use excuses instead of brains or physical dexterity to at least earn their own keep?
Somewhere in our not so distant past we began to lose our rights. Property rights, individual rights, privacy rights, and most of the Constitutional rights were deliberately and systematically taken away and there wasn't even a heated public debate to defend those rights. The right to determine where our tax dollars are spent was something that was much simpler to understand when the Constitution limited taxation with apportionment and a budget had to be approved by the elected representative employees and the People of the many States were heard through the voices of those elected Representatives to that post of service. They aren't our leaders at all, they are supposed to listen to their constituents and follow their majority opinion. If they are not following our lead, we need to remedy the problem.
If things were right in this country, our currency would be stable regardless of what other nations currencies are worth. It would be based on a standard weight of tangible asset the worth of which is based on real industrial value and not a formula that requires a four-year Harvard Degree in Economics.
If things were right we would think $100.00 as a weekly wage was doing pretty good. Fuel prices would be less than 25 cents per gallon and a brand new American built automobile would cost less than $5,000.00 with all of the optional extras.
If things were right, education would be the total responsibility of the parents and not the state. Home schooling, charter schools, and eventually that leads to no public (tax funded) schools at all. All the libraries in the world made available on DVD and online for the world to gain knowledge. The classics as written by those who wrote them and not just the opinions of those lessons written by others. Discussions and debates could take place at a meeting place or online since that enables communications across the continents.
If things were right, we could easily transition from petrochemical fueled vehicles to HHO fuel cell powered electric vehicles. The technology that today is real but at a reasonable cost instead of the premium price that few can afford to pay.
If things were right, regulatory obstacles would be fewer and those additional and unnecessary fees and certifications forced on manufacturers would be eliminated.That would make employment an opportunity that would always be here for younger generations to go out into the world to seek their goals and dreams.
If things were right, I would have work to do and would be self-sufficient instead of desperately trying to produce the rent for every month. I also would be typing less and talking more as the host of an online talk show. But reality is not the same as being right.
If things were right, the known, simple, inexpensive treatments to cure cancer and other illnesses that are so often fatal would be common knowledge and inexpensively available to everyone. If only things were right.
It is the right, and the patriotic duty for all sovereign American individuals to voice their grievances for remedy to those who represent them in our federal government instead of restricted free speech rights and form letters. That remedy begins when we cast our ballots to choose just who will represent us and carry out our mandate for a responsible compliant government and not an irresponsibly reticent and complacent government.
Democrats and Republicans as political parties have taken away our ability to be fairly represented. Those candidates who do not embrace and expound the party ideology are removed from candidacy with the support of the privately-owned major media, who spoon feed spin to the public with the party line of choices while they ostracize the nominees who do not toe that party line.
I have worked for and have been involved with government at all levels and feel there is no level that is not corrupted by lobbying and campaign funding from special interests. While at the same time the media, funded by lobbies and special interests will point the fingers of spin at individuals, groups, and corporations, the problems worsen and never improve.
The presidential election in November, 2012 will be noted as an important historic turning point in the history of the United States of America. It will determine whether America will rise from the ashes like a phoenix, or become absorbed by the global elitists who have been taking over the world through their banks and the corporations they created.
If we keep voting the same warring bigger government unlimited spending party people into office, we will lose our sovereignty and become slave labor to the statists.
Update:
Now that the election is over and Obama stole another four years from the People, will we have any opportunity to regain our prosperity and liberty? Or will we continue to plummet to third-world status?
Obama promised in 2008 that he will "fundamentally change America" and so far he has. The problem is it was not the change that most of us believed in nor wanted.

Americans Must Believe
Those people who spend their time and energy advocating a litany of proposed actions or services the U.S. Government really needs to consider right now, calls for an expansion of government. There are times when an issue or issues are presented which strikes an emotional public chord. People become emotionally engaged in the particulars and the bigger picture fades from view or is ignored. It often helps at times like these to stand back and examine the issue or problem from different points of view.
Clever politicians are forever coming up with new schemes to engage the U.S. Government into doing one thing or another; to address some issue of concern, to solve a particular problem, or to fill someones need somewhere. In many of the newer programs that have been enacted in one way or another, there has been absolutely no consideration of the means to pay for some of these programs that have become law. It should be apparent to all U.S. Citizens it is time to propose that we step back and actually inspect and then think about a few of the these problems facing America. For the moment, shall we Put aside the endless lists of things for government to do and focus on the bigger picture.
The encyclopedic collection of broken promises, failed programs, and wasted trillions should be sufficient to invoke the public attention. The programs or services that never quite materialized, the flashy programs that fizzled, the problems government was supposed to solve but only managed into expensive perpetuity, or programs that failed so badly they forced politicians to point to shiny objects at other locations which had been uncovered, while the original problem was quickly covered over with fresh rolls of turf-grass.
The following should be read and understood by all Americans; Democrats, Republicans, Independents, EVERYONE! The person occupying the Presidency and all 535 voting members of the Legislature, minus a handful, are now declared officially, to be ALL incompetent, negligent Politicians:
a. The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775. You have had 237 years to get it right and it is broke.
b. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 77 years to get it right and it is broke.
c. Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.
d. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 48 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.
e. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 47 years to get it right and they are broke.
f. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 42 years to get it right and it is broke.
g. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 35 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.
h. The Department of Education was created in 1953 and became a solitary Cabinet Department in 1979. Every year billions are spent to insure Americans have developed basic skill levels in reading, writing, and reasoning. This was done to supposedly insure that as a nation, America would remain competitively dominant on a global basis. At the close of 2011 America ranked below 45th place in countries around the world. You had 59 years to get it right and as test scores continue to fall it has become a national embarrassment and failure.
i. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA a.k.a. Obamacare), which just had to be passed so the U.S. House of Representatives could be able to read all 2,700 plus pages according to Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House, is now in question. It has now been revealed by Senator Jeff Sessions, budget chief of the Senate that:
Senate Republican staffers have continued to look though the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) to see what’s in it, and their latest discovery is a massive $17 trillion funding gap. “The more we learn about the bill, the more we learn it is even more unaffordable than was suspected,” Sessions said, “The bill has to be removed from the books because we don’t have the money,” he said. The hidden shortfall between new spending and new taxes was revealed just after Supreme Court justices grilled the law’s supporters about its compliance with the Constitution’s limits on government activity. If the court dose not strike down the law, it will force taxpayers to find $17 trillion they do not have, to pay for the increased spending shortfall. You had 2 years to figure out it can not be gotten right and it is broke.
The government has FAILED in every "bloated government service" that has been shoved down our throats while spending our tax dollars, with no spending limit in place it makes no difference if any program budget or the entire U.S. budget is balanced or not. There are Services which have a real purpose and were never put into place to be a business and produce a profit (revenue stream), the U.S. Postal Service is an example.
OBAMA WANTS AMERICANS TO BELIEVE HE AND HIS PLAN CAN BE TRUSTED TO HANDLE A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM FOR THE U.S. CITIZENRY! It Is Only Money They Could Be Spending On Food: Even If There Is No Proof, Americans Must Believe!

The Hope for America: Know Yourself And Set Yourself Free
To say the least, Dr. Vaknin has a colorful history and much more than a passing interest in the psychology of narcissism. The partial comment and summary of Dr. Vaknin's book, 'Malignant Self Love' found below is interesting not only for what it relates, but what it implies about what was inferred by the Americans who heard Obama's speeches, then voted for this person to occupy the presidency.
Common knowledge of Narcissists' habits are those including manipulation of others Narcissistic tendencies to further their controlling nature. The personality of narcissism is so controlling the well-being of others is irrelevant, from harassment and emotional abuse to physical abuse and murdering those who stand in their way......conscience to them doesn't exist!
Article follows:
- "Israeli Psychologist on Obama
Dr. Sam Vaknin is an Israeli psychologist. Interesting view on our president. Dr. Vaknin has written extensively about narcissism.
Dr. Vaknin States "I must confess I was impressed by Obama from the first time I saw him. At first I was excited to see a black candidate. He looked youthful, spoke well, appeared to be confident -- a wholesome presidential package. I was put off soon, not just because of his shallowness but also because there was an air of haughtiness in his demeanor that was unsettling.. His posture and his body language were louder than his empty words. Obama's speeches are unlike any political speech we have heard in American history. Never a politician in this land had such quasi "religious" impact on so many people.
The fact that Obama is a total incognito with Zero accomplishment, makes this inexplicable infatuation alarming. Obama is not an ordinary man. He is not a genius. In fact he is quite ignorant on most important subjects."
Dr. Sam Vaknin, the author of the 'Malignant Self Love' believes "Barack Obama appears to be a narcissist." Vaknin is a world authority on narcissism. He understands narcissism and describes the inner mind of a narcissist like no other person. When he talks about narcissism everyone listens. Vaknin says that Obama's language, posture and demeanor, and the testimonies of his closest, dearest friends suggest that the man is either a narcissist or he may have narcissistic personality disorder (NPD).
Narcissists project a grandiose but false image of themselves. Jim Jones, the charismatic leader of People's Temple, the man who led over 900 of his followers to cheerfully commit mass suicide and even murder their own children was also a narcissist. David Koresh, Charles Manson, Joseph Koni, Shoko Asahara, Stalin, Saddam, Mao, Kim Jong Ill and Adolph Hitler are a few examples of narcissists of our time. All these men had a tremendous influence over their fanciers. They created a personality cult around themselves and with their blazing speeches elevated their admirers, filled their hearts with enthusiasm and instilled in their minds a new zest for life. They gave them hope! They promised them the moon, but alas, invariably they brought them to their doom.
When you are a victim of a cult of personality, you don't know it until it is too late. One determining factor in the development of NPD is childhood abuse "Obama's early life was decidedly chaotic and replete with traumatic and mentally bruising dislocations," says Vaknin. "Mixed-race marriages were even less common then. His parents went through a divorce when he was an infant two years old. Obama saw his father only once again, before he died in a car accident. Then his mother re-married and Obama had to relocate to Indonesia , a foreign land with a radically foreign culture, to be raised by a step-father. At the age of ten, he was whisked off to live with his maternal (white) grandparents.He saw his mother only intermittently in the following few years and then she vanished from his life in 1979. "She died of cancer in 1995."- One must never underestimate the manipulative genius of pathological narcissists. They project such an imposing personality that it overwhelms those around them. Charmed by the charisma of the narcissist, people become like clay in his hands. They cheerfully do his bidding and delight to be at his service. The narcissist shapes the world around himself and reduces others in his own inverted image. He creates a cult of personality. His admirers become his co-dependents. Narcissists have no interest in things that do not help them to reach their personal objective. They are focused on one thing alone and that is power. All other issues are meaningless to them and they do not want to waste their precious time on trivialities. Anything that does not help them is beneath them and does not deserve their attention.
If an issue raised in the Senate does not help Obama in one way or another, he has no interest in it. The "present" vote is a safe vote. No one can criticize him if things go wrong. Those issues are unworthy by their very nature because they are not about him.
Obama's election as the first black president of the Harvard Law Review led to a contract and advance to write a book about race relations. The University of Chicago Law School provided him a lot longer than expected and at the end it evolved into, guess what? His own autobiography! Instead of writing a scholarly paper focusing on race relations, for which he had been paid, Obama could not resist writing about his most sublime self. He entitled the book 'Dreams from My Father.
'Not surprisingly, Adolph Hitler also wrote his own autobiography when he was still a nobody. So did Stalin. For a narcissist no subject is as important as his own self. Why would he waste his precious time and genius writing about insignificant things when he can write about such an august being as himself?
Narcissists are often callous and even ruthless. As the norm, they lack conscience. This is evident from Obama's lack of interest in his own brother who lives on only one dollar per month.. A man who lives in luxury, who takes a private jet to vacation in Hawaii, and who raised nearly half a billion dollars for his campaign (something unprecedented in history) has no interest in the plight of his own brother. Why? Because, his brother cannot be used for his ascent to power. A narcissist cares for no one but himself.
This election was like no other in the history of America . The issues were insignificant compared to what is at stake. What can be more dangerous than having a man bereft of conscience, a serial liar, and one who cannot distinguish his fantasies from reality as the leader of the free world?
I hate to sound alarmist, but one is a fool if one is not alarmed. Many politicians are narcissists. They pose no threat to others. They are simply self serving and selfish. Obama evidences symptoms of pathological narcissism, which is different from the run-of-the-mill narcissism of a Richard Nixon or a Bill Clinton for example. To him reality and fantasy are intertwined.
This is a mental health issue, not just a character flaw. Pathological narcissists are dangerous because they look normal and even intelligent. It is this disguise that makes them treacherous. Today the Democrats have placed all their hopes in Obama. But this man could put an end to their party. The great majority of blacks voted for Obama. Only a fool does not know that their support for him is racially driven. This is racism, pure and simple.
The downside of this is that if Obama turns out to be the disaster I predict, he will cause widespread resentment among the whites. The blacks are unlikely to give up their support of their man. Cultic mentality is pernicious and unrelenting. They will dig their heads deeper in the sand and blame Obama's detractors of racism. This will cause a backlash among the whites. The white supremacists will take advantage of the discontent and they will receive widespread support. I predict that in less than four years, racial tensions will increase to levels never seen since the turbulent 1960's.Obama will set the clock back decades. America is the bastion of freedom. The peace of the world depends on the strength of America , and its weakness translates into the triumph of terrorism and victory of rogue nations.. It is no wonder that Ahmadinejad, Hugo Chavez, the Castrists, the Hezbollah, the Hamas, the lawyers of the Guantanamo terrorists, and virtually all sworn enemies of America are so thrilled by the prospect of their man in the White House.America is on the verge of destruction. There is no insanity greater than electing a pathological narcissist as president.
Michael A. Haberman"
