Never in my lifetime did I believe this great nation would be taken down and withdrawn from its world leadership position by its own leadership. While some try to explain away the Obama administration’s damaging policies by making excuses, they fail to face reality. This is a planned agenda.
When then-Sen. Barack Obama announced in 2008 that he was going to fundamentally transform America, few Americans comprehended what that declaration actually meant. However, with his radical background and his leftist mentors and associates, his agenda became very clear early on in his presidency
* * * The real question is, how do you change the disastrous Obama administration policies that affect our national security? Obviously, the ballot box is one way, but the one institution that has the power to send an unmistakable signal that will be heard throughout the country is the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It is time for them to live up to their oath of office — “to defend this country against all enemies foreign and domestic.” The Obama administration has clearly violated the Constitution and must be held accountable. Since we no longer can count on Congress, the Joint Chiefs as a corporate body should voice their objections to administration policies that are threatening America’s security and that of our allies. It’s time to take back America.

A Pinochet time may be approaching.
By force if necessary.
I have been saying for a long time that we need a Pinochet moment.
Pinochet?
We’ve reached the tipping point of the number of citizens who believe in Obama’s radical agenda.
There are less and less people who believe in economic liberty and personal freedom. Soon we will deplete the human resource that understands value creation, the reason for economic growth. (The goose that lays the golden eggs.) Those that currently engage in such economic activity realize that they are targeted. Entrepreneurs have gone ‘slow roll’ or are preparing for the worst as exhibited by those in OWS. They are coming for you and your property. After all, you didn’t build that. They mean to exact ‘revenge’ and ‘punish’ those who are not with them.
We will remain stagnant until we deteriorate beyond recognition.
We are FUBAR.
We can only hope that if it does it will not come from the military.
Congress needs to take the challenge and live up to their duty as Representatives of the people. If the seventeenth amendment was not in place, Senators would still represent the sovereign states that loaned a portion of their sovereign power to the Federal Government to do only a few specific things in our behalf. Chief among those was to protect the country from foreign invasion and coin money.
Anyone like to present a how goes it on those two subjects?
Erased our borders, allowed a deadly disease into our population, destroyed the healthcare and education system, weakening the military, over-loaded entitlement programs and criminalized Christianity and traditional values.
WHO is standing up for Americans?
We are being taxed without any representation.
God designed His creation such that such an attempt to use force to make people “cooperate” will always fail.
Our national debt is out of control and is not sustainable. At some point the economy has to collapse. We can ignore reality but we cannot ignore the consequences of reality.
Honestly, I don’t know HOW the economy is limping along to this point.
bttt
WHEN the GOP gets control of the Senate, it needs to SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN. No bills should pass. No appointees should be confirmed. No money should be spent. If they make it impossible for the Kenyan usurper to govern, we’ll get that moment. The military will have no choice but to end the gridlock.
You are absolutely correct, if these boneheads up in the Senate/House do not step up to the plate and defend this nation, citizens and our constitution, folks will get to the point that they've had enough.
Not advocating, just reading the tea leaves out in the heartland. Folks have had enough with a rogue gubbamint putting the interest of foreigners ahead of law abiding, tax paying, hard working American citizens.
Smaller gubbamint (scale back unconstitutional federal agencies), lower taxes (Abolish the un-American IRS), Congressional term limits, gain control over illegal executive orders, close the damn borders, 5 year moratorium on legal immigration, Demand congressional budget (zero based), increase defense spending by 10%, require all who receive government assistance of any kind, put in 20 hours of community service per week, return to the gold standard and audit the (not so) Federal Reserve.
WE WANT CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP!
Sorry Admiral,some knew exactly what he meant,BEFORE he was elected,and how the hell did not anyone realize it before they voted for him a second time!
yeah, I don’t think this is a good example of how to proceed.
Bingo!
According to Wikipedia :-
all JCS are appointed by the President following Senate confirmation.
After the 1986 reorganization of the military undertaken by the Goldwater-Nichols Act, the Joint Chiefs of Staff does not have operational command of U.S. military forces.
Today, their primary responsibility is to ensure the personnel readiness, policy, planning and training of their respective military services for the combatant commanders to utilize. The Joint Chiefs of Staff also act in a military advisory capacity for the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense. In addition, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff acts as the chief military advisor to the President and the Secretary of Defense. In this strictly advisory role, the Joint Chiefs constitute the second-highest deliberatory body for military policy, after the National Security Council, which includes the President and other officials besides the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

If the majority of them were appointed by the usurper, is there any hopes that their advice will reverse the course ?
Since the JCS is out-ranked by the National Security council (i.e. the usurper and his ‘officials’), their advice can be disdainfully/diliberately discarded.
The JCS does not have operational command of U.S. military forces, so if their advice is discarded, they are out of luck. The usurper can do anything he wants.
Could it be they have been advising him to act in ways to ‘fundamentally transform America’?
or,
the usurper acts on his own despite their advice otherwise?
What makes the author think the JCS can ‘send an unmistakable signal that will be heard throughout the country’? If their signal is to further the usurper’s agenda we won’t hear it, or hear only the misinfo and disinfo fed to us by the lamestream media;
if their signal is against the usurper and his handlers’ agenda, we most certainly won’t hear it.
There must be something we don’t know?
Just puzzling.
We do not need a Pinochet moment, we need a Iceland moment.
