Will President Obama "seize power overnight" in a move to consolidate White House control of the U.S. government?
That's the fear of Fox News anchor Glenn Beck who discussed the issue at length today with another broadcasting powerhouse, radio's Rush Limbaugh.
"I fear this government, this administration has so much framework already prepared, that they will seize power overnight before anybody even gives it a second thought," Beck said.
His comment came as he was analyzing the changing nature of the media since Obama's election, citing the administration's close ties with the NBC network, owned by corporate giant General Electric:
If you watch what could only be called the administration's organ – anything involved with GE or NBC – you've got [GE CEO] Jeffrey Immelt on the board of the Federal Reserve, you have him in the Oval Office consulting not only on health care, but the financial situation, and they are an organ. If you watch MSNBC, I contend that you will see the future because they are laying the ground for a horrible event ... anything from the right, there's some awful event and I fear this government, this administration has so much framework already prepared, that they will seize power overnight before anybody even gives it a second thought.
Limbaugh responded, "I don't think they're going to be able to seize it overnight without anybody knowing about it."

” I worked on a project back in 2004 or so that involved a company buying out cellular tower leases all over the country - every state in the lower 48. I think the company name was Reliance Communications - though there was another entity named TowerCo involved in some of the deals.
It wasn’t until later that I learned that George Soros was heavily involved with those companies.”
I don’t doubt this for a minute. Do you have any sites that detail this? Thank you in advance.
According to feedback from folks I know "over there" they already do. Something about tipping their hand with a certain RWE Report.
They consider that report as being insight to the current administration’s true thought process. They were and are remaining PIZZED.
See my post above. American Tower has 23k towers, TowerCo (privately held) has 3k. Also the towers are not the choke point, it is who controls the backhaul network on the towers.
I’ll wager that you are as surprised as I am that someone like Beck would actually devote an entire week to systematically breaking down Obama’s power structure for all to see. It’s not a panacea, but it’s a start.
“Serious question; If tomorrow morning we all awoke to no Fox News, no Free Republic, and instead of Rush you heard about the wonderful revolution going on in our country with Obama at the lead.
What would you do? Go to work as usual, hide under the bed, or would you grab your weapons and ‘ride towards the sound of gunfire’, so to speak?”
That’s a good question. If all of us on the internet were cut off from communicating, where to go? I’ve been thinking for a long time that those of us who are like-minded should be meeting in person with those who live in our area. Because, we on the internet are miles apart and we would not even know how to contact each other!
"But behold, this land," saith God,
"shall be a land of thine inheritance;
And the Gentiles shall be blessed upon the land,
And this land shall be a land of liberty unto the Gentiles,
And there shall be no kings upon the land
which shall raise up unto the Gentiles;
And I will fortify this land against all other nations,
And he that fighteth against Zion shall perish," saith God;
"For he that raiseth up a king against Me shall perish,
For I, the Lord, the King of heaven, will be their king,
And I will be a light unto them forever
that hear My words.
"Wherefore, for this cause — that My covenants may be
fulfilled which I have made unto the children of men,
that I will do unto them while they are in the flesh —
I must needs destroy the secret works of darkness
and of murders and of abominations;
Wherefore, he that fighteth against Zion —
both Jew and Gentile,
both bond and free,
both male and female —
Shall perish;
For they are they which are the whore of all the earth;
For they which are not for Me are against Me,"
saith our God;
"For I will fulfill My promises which I have made
unto the children of men, that I will do unto them
while they are in the flesh."
[The statement "And I will fortify this land against all other nations" is not a prophecy, but a promised blessing that I think we are losing because of widespread animosity against Christian values. The First Book of Nephi warns "... These things must shortly come; yea, even blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke must come; and it must needs be upon the face of this earth; and it cometh unto men according to the flesh, if it so be that they will harden their hearts against the Holy One of Israel." The 2001 terrorist attacks on America, though partially fulfilling this warning, were human judgments on America that God did not intervene to prevent.]
However, even if God will not permit a dictatorship over America as a whole, portions of America may be temporarily lost to foreign powers, depending on how valiantly Americans rise up against the Obama Administration's obvious desires to strip Americans of their God-given rights and freedoms. So even though Glenn Beck has read the Book of Mormon and is aware of its promise of no dictatorship over America, he is wise to warn Americans of dictatorship. For even if the attempt at it must fail, it is now doing severe and long-lasting damage to America. I don't think God would be pleased with those who knew of, but did nothing to help thwart the evil intentions of the Obama Administration.
I have told others that while Obama is a horrible thing to inflict on America, I have never in my life seen people more engaged, more enraged and ready to take their uppity “public servants” down a couple of notches.
I’m very glad to hear this. This is what I thought before my conversation with my friend led me to wonder.
lol
Looks like we have us an UNDEAD thread going on here.
I wonder if during the day, this thread will hit 500? More?
Anyway, you raise some good points regarding "Where is the military"?
Other posts.... 38, 78, 125 and others bring out the fact that Obama will attempt to redeploy the military to sand boxes around the world while he develops his own brown shirt brigades (National Service) right here in the US (ACORN types)
And if the armed forces are of no help, who ya gonna call? The police?
(shudder!)
Thank you. That does make me feel better.
There’s a big difference between voting cash for clunkers and letting extremists of either party try to seize power over the country. Trust me - there are patriots in both parties... (of course ours are smarter when it comes to what’s best for our country - and theirs likey to push idiot programs that make people dependent - and we’re wiser and they’re more criminal... etc. etc.)
That's already been done:
I don't disagree at all that BHO's words and actions are more than alarming.
What I am talking about are the AMERICAN people reactions to those words and deeds. So far (on healthcare) it's only been talk from him, and look what a hornets nest he has stirred up. Try some overnight coup and the town halls will truly look like a polite Sunday School discussion over Jesus. All hell will break lose.
Who will be fight or go after? I don't know, but this I DO KNOW; the American people are smart, and insightful, and we WILL figure out who to kill and who to torture, and who is an ally.
Oh, I know it’s been introduced. But no one mentions it. Obama knows it’s too early. He has to win re-election first. Early in the second term would be the time to push for it. When the media start talking about it, and it actually starts moving through committee and onto the floor, so it can be sent to the states, that is the time I am referring to. And, as in Honduras, if it doesn’t get ratified, look for libs to argue that he should be able to run anyway, because the people want it. One more vote on the Supreme Court would allow that to happen.
Are the folks you know at battalion command and above?
“Military officers serve the Constitution, not the President.”
Sure, but their commission is from the President and they serve at his pleasure.
I am starting to fear for Rush’s life (and Glenn’s). I really hope they have good security. :( I can definitely imagine one of the ACORN thugs, or New Black Panthers trying to take out our guys. I’m serious.
Can someone help me? I have no idea what the Lloyd character is talking about.
Is he admiring Chavez for stifling the media in Venezuela?
