Could This Be Why Obastard is Being such a Jerk?
Now | Me

Posted on 10/08/2013 9:32:32 AM PDT by Cyber Liberty

OK, it's a vanity. Deal.

I haven't heard this possibility brought up, but that might be because I haven't read every post. It's been a very busy week, and Obastard is doing his best to overflow the piss-off bucket. But, a thought dawned upon me yesterday when I was reading a story in IBD about the next big scary deadline coming up, the Debt-Limit that we're supposed to hit on 10/17.

I think Obastard is being a total pr**k about shutting down parks, landmarks and private property because he's building up cred for a threat he intends to pull next week. He's lost a lot of credibility with his threats recently because, at least on the foreign scene, he's been shown to be rather, uh, "toothless."

What's the big threat? We're all expecting it so I don't think I'm shocking anybody when I say he intends to deliberately default on our bond interest payments. It's well known that he doesn't have to do that, and any normal business would ensure the bond-holders get serviced first, but I think he's planning to stiff the folks holding the debt, and that's us. Yes, the Chinese will take it in the shorts, but I think the Fed holds the biggest chunk of the debt these days. At least, they're the only fools buying it lately, since the S&P downgrade.

He's infuriating everybody right now for the same reason a battleship bombards an enemy before an invasion: To "soften us up." He would rather create mayhem the likes we haven't seen in my lifetime than try to get spending under control. He wants to deliberately crash the economy, and this is his big chance, all the while blaming the Republicans, especially TEA Partiers. We're all Emmanuel Goldstein now.

I see a golden opportunity to put troops in the streets, and dissidents in jail.

I don't even think he's actually calling the shots in these random closings. He's just telegraphed the message that he wants pain caused and there are myriad little bureaucrat tyrants just chomping at the bit to excercise a little a-THOR-a-tay and break the balls of the non-government functionaries they despise.

He has created a culture that stresses the concept that the citizens all function and live at the fragile benevolence of the federal government, and there are plenty on the other side of that line who embrace the idea that they are in charge. Obama's world view complements the one they've envisioned since they were bullied in high school. We must all respect their awesome power or they will make us pay the price.

As far as defaulting, he won't do that because it will be the final nail locking down his worst president ever title, which he still thinks isn't his. He probably thinks it belongs to Reagan.

Your theory is plausible, and I have thought the same thing.

Hitler, when he saw his Reich crumbling, decided to take down Germany with him. I think obama is capable of the same type of behavior.

Certainly a possibility. After all, who would've imagined WWII Veterans threatened with arrest while illegal aliens be permitted to hold their rally on the National Mall? Isn't that backwards? Barry is out to undermine and sabotage everything American.

Keep your eye on the movement of military domestically, and other security forces. Remember those large ammo purchases? And why did Janet Napolitano vacate her post and WHY has no one been appointed to fill that position? That could be a clue. Barry is empowering his Park Rangers and other security people with more intrusive actions and belligerent attitudes.. What gives?

0bamaCare is the Socialist / Communist permanency program.

Everything has to do with keeping it fully intact.

Including mere distractions like a full default on the debt.

I confess that when Bush Jr. was elected I told people that all we did by electing him was put off the inevitable by four years. I said the same thing when he was re-elected but not sure we really put anything off.

It’s running full speed ahead now. I do not think we will survive a full obama term.

Wasn’t it the Holy Reverend Jesse Jackson who himself said in 2008 “He’s not one of us!” ? Obummer is not part of the American fabric, doesn’t feel it, never felt it. And now, seeing that nobody will hold his feet to the fire, because, let’s face it, that’s how our system works when the MSM is on your side (as it’s been on the side of the blackmailer Jackson, if you need examples), he feels no sense of responsibility to anybody or anything.

My scenario: Just as he did with the CR, he will demand of the Republicans in Congress a “clean” debt limit raise, with zero future limits or conditions. The Republicans will either totally cave and accede to this demand, or they will hold out and be blamed for pushing the USA over the “debt cliff.”

Obama then cuts off all entitlement payments. No SS, pensions, or indirect EBT payments (they are doled out by the states.)

Once the EBT payments stop, our cities will EXPLODE and Obama will have his “emergency” and will announce fiat rule by the National Emergencies Act.

As long as Obama/Jarrett etc believe that the MSM will cover his flanks and blame the Republicans for the chaos, what will stop him?

He gets to declare the “Tea Party terrorists” to be “enemies of the state,” and rule as a dictator. It’s win-win for Obama.

Notice there are a lot of normally big mouths in DC who are very, very quiet these days. If their plan to further destroy America this month succeeds, then they’ll all be fighting over the cameras in about two weeks. If it fails, then the only one who’s been out there is hussein.

Hate to admit it but do see it your way Travis. May as well let zer0 make the cities burn. zer0 and his crowd want it this way (imho). If zer0 doesn’t accomplish it, someone else will. My belief is We the People are prepared to deal with it. We may not win because winning is always in doubt but am ready to make a stand. May the republicans make one and take a stand because everything is being set up to be done based upon lies, and the main liar is in the People’s White House. Am praying the lame-stream wakes up. They (the lame-stream) has skin in this game zer0 is playing too. The lame-stream could destroy zer0. They have the information to destroy zer0 with but will they wait too long is the only question I have left, for I have no doubt zer0 and his minions are seeking to destroy America.

You are correct. This evil scum is capable of anything and everything and it will all be bad.

I think Boehner should hold a press conference and announce that if Obama fails to make the bond payments as required by the 14th amendment using the ample supply of tax receipt funds that continually come in to the Treasury, then Congress will immediately begin impeachment proceedings. Enough with the games.

after some deliberation, I decided to post this vanity...

None of us should hesitate posting in matters like this. When you shine a light into a dark corner, sometimes something really is there. It's worth the effort.

Towards the end of Glenn Beck’s show this morning, he was saying they’ve gotten wind of something that’s being planned. They haven’t nailed it down to their satisfaction yet, but they’ll put it out when they have. Glenn has said before that sooner or later they’ll be honest about ‘who they are’. Maybe that shoe is ready to drop?

Polls this morning show 58% are against raising the debt limit, with only around 37% for. It doesn’t look like it’s going Barry’s way right now & he’d better be very careful what nonsense he tries.

Payments on Treasury debt are made from current, not prospective future revenue. The Treasury has on hand trillions of dollars from current year tax payments, and by law, debt on interest must be paid first.

The threat of default is essentially non-existent, barring a complete financial meltdown... which in fact, may come later as a consequence of hyperinflation as initiated by the Federal Reserve's monetary policies. But for the moment, Obama in his capacity as Chief Executive cannot simply choose to default on the debt. It must be paid, and it will.

The Secretary of the Treasury can/should/will pay the interest on the debt without the Presidents authority.

As I understand, paying the debt interest obligations is first on the pay list. Before anything else.
The monthly income into the government coffers is many times that needed to service the debt.

IOW for the Country to default on loans would require a conscience effort/edict to bring about. And I don't know if that is even possible.

If that is true then a default can be laid squarely at the feet on Zer0.

I’m still wondering why Benghazi Barry did a “surprise visit” to FEMA Area 3 the other day. (FEMA Area 3-—PA, WV, VA, DC)
