When the Constitution of the United States was framed it placed the exclusive legislative authority in the hands of Congress and with the President. Article I, Section 1 of the United States Constitution is concise in its language:
“All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.”
That is no longer true. The Bill of Rights protected Americans against loss of freedoms. That is no longer true. The Constitution provided for a balanced separation of powers. That is no longer applicable.
Perhaps it can be summed up succinctly in the words of arch-conservative activist Howard J Ruff:
“Since the enactment of Executive Order 11490, the only thing standing between us and dictatorship is the good character of the President, and the lack of a crisis severe enough that the public would stand still for it.”
Next we will look at all legislation passed or attempted by the dishonest Socialist regardless if they call themselves Progressive, Liberal, Independent, Republican, or Democrat.
If you have a computer you can look up the legislation.
Here are just a few Executive Orders that would suspend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. These Executive Orders have been on record for nearly 30 years and could be enacted by the stroke of a Presidential pen:
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication media.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11001 allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11003 allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11005 allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11051 specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.
Here are the later Executive Orders:
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11049 assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 12148 created the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) that is to interface with the Department of Defense for civil defense planning and funding. An “emergency czar” was appointed. FEMA has only spent about 6 percent of its budget on national emergencies, the bulk of their funding has been used for the construction of secret underground facilities to assure continuity of government in case of a major emergency, foreign or domestic.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 12656 appointed the National Security Council as the principal body that should consider emergency powers. This allows the government to increase domestic intelligence and surveillance of U.S. citizens and would restrict the freedom of movement within the United States and granted the government the right to isolate large groups of civilians. The National Guard could be federalized to seal all borders and take control of U.S. air space and all ports of entry. Many of the figures in the Iran-Contra scandal were part of this emergency contingent, including Marine Colonel Oliver North.
maybe, but maybe not...BHO is being squeezed from a lot of directions.

Understand, and liberals are also known to do dangerous
things when they fear the loss of their power.
CDC is only testing people who are hospitalized for H1N1 in the US. Everyone else is tested for seasonal flu and if positive are assumed to be H1N1 but not tested for H1N1 unless they were hospitalized.
In the US CDC is not collecting H1N1 data on the general population so they lack the base number of infected people to determine accurately, the death rate for the virus. They don’t have a basis in data to determine that the swine flu is “wide spread” because they are not testing for it beyond hospitalizations and deaths. The only valid way to determine if the virus is widespread and dangerous is to test for the flu in selected representatives areas and then they could make valid data assumptions for the Nation.
CBS just reported according to early state by state data of general population tests, only 1-3% (I am recalling here) of those identifed by their doctors as having swine flu based on symptoms and a positive regular flu test, actually tested positive for the swine flu virus. That data was gathered before CDC stopped testing for swine flu in the general population in July.
The data you selected from the CDC site is results from hospitalization testing not general population testing. 37.5% of those hospitalized (4,855) with suspected swine flu
came out positive. However, that is a bogus number because many of those who were attacked by the flu ended up in the hospital after the flu passed with lung damage and/or deadly infections caused by the weakened immune system from the flu. By the time they get to the hospital, they no longer test positive for the flu.
The goal has been all along to fracture this country through a series of unpopular and destructive policies. He wants things to go so far that everything breaks. He gets a whole bunch of goals if it happens.
He destroys the country he hates.
For the sheeple he gets praise he’ll take care of them.
For the enemies they get martial law and either killed resisting or being rounded up into all those weird empty prison buildings just waiting to be filled.
And he gets to frame it as being the second president to ‘hold the union together’. If he succeeds he is a hero, if not he’s got a cause to go after for his next term in the smaller country he’ll be leading. Either way he’ll get sympathy from the national and international liberal media. Rebels will be framed as racist, extremist, etc.
Screw Karma. How about a good ol' military coup?
Karma is a bitch and she slaps reeeeaaaal hard.
What goes around comes around.
Speaking of which, why isn’t Typhoid Malia getting vaccinated? Isn’t she a National Security risk. I mean she plays and goes to school with a lot of other carriers of the Swine Flu.
Can you imagine the horror if Barry O. caught the Swine Flu from his very own daughter?
Is she part of the Horses out of the Barn?
If this crisis is indeed a National Emergency, then how is that inner circle of the White House is not vaccinated as a matter of National Security?
Or is it job security for the execs of the drug companies?
Malia! for the love of Allah or God, your family and your country, I implore you to be a patriotic american: Take the vaccine!
Wonder what the flu count will be after all the football games with people packed side by side? Couldn’t help but think when I was watching the Cowboys win, who was sneezing and coughing in that enclosed stadium?
Karma is in ‘other’ hands .. what the
military does will be tense to watch
unfold. God bless, guide and protect
them.
No kidding? What happened to going to church? Mr. Christian?
Actually, from a legal perspective, it should be quite fascinating. The Constitution is sh*t in the eyes of the Left. Let's get over the fact that we have no law in America today. Let the games begin...
“That’s because studies have shown...”
“Experts agree...”
“Latest opinion by experts has resulted in a WAG....
(wag=wild ass guess)
God be with you...
Yeah, I hear you.
I got sick at my niece’s wedding. Some old guy behind me was coughing like nuts and I’m trying to not inhale and thinking ‘man I hope I don’t get sick’.
Would you put it past Obama?

Not to be petty .. but that reminds me: Sasha is asthmatic .. I would think she would be in the high risk group who needs the H1N1 vaccine. I can’t imagine she wouldn’t be given it.

And what about the first puppy?
“He would like to adopt one (from a shelter),” Gleick says. “Malia, earlier in the year, was interested in getting a Yorkie. She has asthma. They need something that’s not allergenic. Barack mentioned a Labra-doodle. Obviously, this is the most hotly-anticipated puppy on the planet.”

I have my doubts that Sasha and Malia have not had the vaccine.
