“Just WHO will provide their services to this organization? Will it be military personnel? Police officers? National Guardsmen? Just who will this organization employ?

All of the whores like Clark who will want the goodies of being an insider. Lots of lefties in the military, police forces, Justice Department. They will want power and they will fold.

That’s going to be the hard thing...unlike 1861, we may have trouble telling who the enemy is. Infiltration will be easier, and finding a center of gravity to hit may be difficult.

But we’ll win.

That is surrender or else face destruction.

What's he gonna do to me? I live in a town of only 25,000. I could raise a company of armed men and women in a day. He's going to have to nuke all of us, and then he'll be lord of the dead.

There are some totalitarianism aspects or tendencies in him, it seems.

I see no way this country could be “taken” at this point

How about if Obama replaces the people with the US nukes with a few thousand of his people ? He has the nuclear codes and announces that the US will have to follow his orders or be anihilated. Would the US citizens fight or would they rather be destroyed ?

He might make a demostration by nuking your town and then seeing if anyone else wants to disobey. It would be like dropping a couple of nukes on Japan and then giving them an ultimatum to surrender in ww2. As tough as the japanese were, they surrendered.

Excellent and interesting post. Would you mind if I copied it for my own notes?
America will sigh it’s own death warrant next week when it elects Obama.

finding a center of gravity to hit may be difficult.

That's exactly the thing. The Enemy Within, to paraphrase Dr. Savage, is so insidious and pervasive, like an ill-defined malignancy with no obvious primary but spread throughout.

It seems the US military has been struggling for some time to contain a bunch of bed-sheet clad yahoos in Afghanistan and Iraq. It would be a nightmare if the military had to try to suppress a domestic uprising consisting of 75,000,000 US gun owners who were p*ssed off about losing their country. If Afghanistan and Iraq can fight for their country, so can we.

It would be a lot simpler if we just elected McCain next week. Who needs a civil war?

Yes, but the Japanese were afraid we’d wipe them out, not that we’d wipe purselves out.

Also, how many Air Force officers do you think Barack Obama will find who will drop nuclear weapons on American cities?

Stop writing science fiction and start thinking about real threats.

The creation of such a corps would ensure that true experts carry out tasks such as restoring electricity "

Like a chessboard, for every move that communist bastard makes, there will be counter move after counter move. I (retired) as well as every other Journeyman Lineman, know where every significant vulnerability of the National Power Grid lays. The havoc just a few of us could create in one night would take months to fix...

It would play out the same across the land if this fascism comes to pass. No way the leftist can repair what "Joe the plumber" and the rest of the trades could pull off needed to stop this plague... Did I mention the snipers?

I’m sure the ACLU will be PART of it.
Ok , did Obama say what the purpose of this civilian security will be ? How in God’s name is this country allowing this bastard to ascend to the White House ?

It is about nuclear blackmail, not hand to hand combat.

That is surrender or else face destruction.

Nobody in the US Military would carry out that order...

Ok but if Obama has the nuclear codes along with enough (maybe 1000) people in the right places, he can blackmail the US, "go along with me or else face total destruction" and he could do it too.

A strike on US soil from one of our own missile commanders? No chance in hell. The other missile commanders would SHOOT the guy that turned the keys for this.
