There has been much speculation by conservatives as to the purpose of Obamas appointment of so many czars, never mind the question of legality. Were they created simply to guide their respective areas of the private sector into socialism? Are they there to enforce Obamas will without having to go through Congress? Or is it a more sinister plan to have them there to coerce others? All three of those theories have some merit and to some degree all three probably coexist. However, the big picture seems to come into better focus, at least for me, when I compare the organizational structure and purpose of ACORN to that of Obamas cabinet and czars.
If you have paid attention to the investigations of ACORN and its multi-faceted organization, coupled with its built in defense mechanism, you can see how the top leaders of ACORN can get away with questionable and sometimes illegal conduct. For example, look at the well-known voter registration fraud charges filed against ACORN. ACORN claims it wasnt them, they didnt know it was happening, and blamed the actions on rogue employees. This way, they are insulated from the act.
In the latest Obama gaff regarding the snitch email snafu, the action was blamed on a rogue healthcare czar, namely Nancy DeParle. It was she that instituted the entire snitch brigade monstrosity, not Obama. He knew nothing about it. In fact, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said that the White House is in no way connected to the White House website, so how could he have known? I guess were left to believe that Obamas cabinet and czars are as transparent with him as he is with us.
This isnt the first time that Obama or one of his appointed secretaries has had to blame an underling for something that came out. Remember the Homeland Security profiling paper on possible terror threats warning of disgruntled veterans and those who disagreed with Obama? That wasnt Obamas doing. It wasnt even Janet Napolitanos doing. It was someone I dont even recall being named. If you look at the total lack of real job or leadership experience in some of Obamas appointments, you can certainly surmise that they have been put in place to be expendable. They are basically human shields. The fact that many of them share socialist agendas with Obama may tend to be the reason they volunteer to protect him as opposed to having any real power for themselves.
Now, if you look at the complex web used to hide ACORNs finances, you can also see why Obama has created such intricate, confusing organizational structures for his stimulus bills, bailouts and the healthcare takeover. And like ACORN, it certainly isnt to make the process more efficient.
Be precise, call them what they are: COMMISSARS.
bttt
The only good thing about ACORN is that when the next Republican president is elected he or she can seize them so their wealth can be redistributed.
He's recently introduced a new like-minded operation (I think with Soros/Podesta involed some kind of way) called, "Apollo" created by the Tides Foundation.
Scary stuff and real Patriots are needed.
Not Obama, he has one overseeing every department.
Why aren't republicans demanding that NO policy be implemented by these czars without a bill being put through the senate?
Import Palestinians
Organize his brownshirts to beat the hell out of anyone who disagrees with him
Crap and tax
Obamacare
NEXT:
AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS
And his approval rating still high!
Yup. IIRC, Glenn said not to worry too much about ACORN and SEIU, it's the coming AmeriCorp that will be the monster.
I hope people realize that these protests and tea parties are about more than health care... Obama is effectively overthrowing the US government...and, Cap & Trade is coming too. (ETC)
You need to be phoning and emailing your congressman about your tax money being given to these THUG organizations that are fighting against you. This is CRAZY!!
He's working on the armament.
Personally ... I don't expect to die a natural death (I'm 61), and I don't expect my death to be quiet.
Paranoid?
I was told 45 years ago ... paranoia is the first step to awareness.
There may never be another Republican president.
The time to act is now...no more putting things off. The fight is right now.
Everyone must do something everyday to defend the Republic.
I'm 65 1/2 and feel the same...I'm prepared to make a lot of noise before I go.
Because congress "delegated" the authority to create the policies used within those agencies to those agencies when congress created those agencies. The review of those policies will not be done by any over-site committee as long as the Democrats control everything. Ergo, no remedy with congress.
The only alternative is that for someone with standing to bring suit on the questionable policy issue in the Federal Court system.
We need our own organization that can respond to these kind of efforts in an organized fashion.
Our best hope is to circle the wagons at the state level and leverage the 10th amendment against the feds. The states best strategy against the Fed would be to require businesses to remit all taxes to the state treasury and have the state send funds to Washington. They could act as a broker and provide an anonymous “shield” for taxpayers against federal threats.
If the fed threatens to withhold funds due the state then the state can threaten to withhold tax receipts. The Fed often threatens to withhold funds when they don’t agree with state legislation, which is clearly unconstitutional in many situations.
It’s all about leverage and currently we are powerless against the Fed. We need a Governor and like minded legislature to stand up to the growing bureaucracy.
Choice of weapon? Video Cameras for evidence gathering.
And while filming say for the camera something like,
This behavior is unacceptable. This country doesn't value this kind of behavior. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. etc.
The whole world is watching...The whole world is watching...
Shame? LOL. Don't you know that shame is obsolete...it's one of those 'acting White' thangs that belongs to another era.
When these thugs start kicking your butt...yell loud enough, I'll be just below the horizon. (Saddled up and ready)
