Barack Obama's Civilian Army

[Lucky9teen]

Thursday's show, I believe, it's the most controversial of all the shows this week — and maybe ever.

I will give you some facts, some history but also some of the future.

The reason Thursday's show is the last before Friday's solution, I wanted you to see who was advising the president and what they are doing, before I could ask you to look at this phrase from Barack Obama and think he meant it literally:

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

THEN-PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE BARACK OBAMA: We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

I don't know how anyone will respond to the facts I am going to present, because they really haven't responded to any of our questions or challenged any of the facts in our last few shows other than "Hey, don't call him a 'czar!'"

But I can't make this piece of the puzzle fit, unless this piece is about building some kind of thug-ocracy.

All week we've been asking tough questions — here's one more, Mr. President: Why do we need a civilian national security force that is "just as strong, just as powerful" as the military?

Here's why I ask this question: Who are we fighting? Who internally is threatening our security?

It's clearly not because we feel there is a threat from illegal aliens crossing the border, because anyone who would say that has been deemed a racist. A civilian national security force on the border is called The Minuteman and the attitude from this administration — as well as the Bush administration — is that they were "vigilantes." So it's not for the border.

It can't be a civilian national security force against Islamic extremists, because according to this administration we aren't even at war against Islamic extremists anymore. Is this administration really going to ask the American people to profile and call-in tips on Muslim Americans who act suspiciously?

So, who's left? Is it possible we are seeing the beginnings of another enemy?

Mr. President, is your civilian national security force to protect us from things the Missouri State Police, your own Homeland Security and the liberal Southern Law Poverty Center have come out and said were a threat: militia groups; tea party goers; folks with "Don't Tread on Me" flags; me; Sarah Palin?

Think about this: Is it unreasonable to think this government would ask you to spy on your neighbors, in light of these recent stories:

— Flag.gov e-mail asking for tips on "fishy" behavior

— Cookies on your computer that track whenever you've been on a government Web site — this used to be illegal but that was changed

— The government is using outside companies to track and contact you. Are they gathering information on you? I know that on "cash for clunkers" they didn't trust the dealers.

To me, all of this sounds like a sci-fi movie, but again I have to ask the reasonable question, in these unreasonable times: Who will the civilian national security force protect us from?

Maybe a better question to ask is, Mr. President: Do you know of a coming event?

Or maybe we should ask Joe Biden, who said:

(BEGIN AUDIO CLIP)

THEN-VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE JOE BIDEN: Mark my words, it will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America.... Remember I said it standing here, if you don't remember anything else I said: Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.

(END AUDIO CLIP)

Is this civilian national security force just preparing for what Joe Biden predicted?

Who builds an army against an unidentified, unrecognized threat? Because we can't answer that question — or any of the others just proposed — then it's up to us to look for clues.

Maybe we have to start with the company whose CEO is a close financial adviser to the president of the United States, who helped write the health care bill and cap-and-trade bill and who has billions of dollars at stake: Jeffrey Immelt.

Immelt has been appointed by president to the board of directors to the New York Federal Reserve. Does he have any information? Let's look for what they may be saying the threat will be that we will need a civilian national security force against.

It would seem to me the network that sells "Yes We Did" dolls, mugs and t-shirts and is obviously extraordinarily close to the president in seven different ways — is it possible to watch their network and their news, to see if they have any inside information as to what this threat may be? Immelt's network seems to be the leading network in predicting a lot of trouble, but they're not alone:

(BEGIN VIDEO MONTAGE)

ED SCHULTZ RADIO SHOW: Folks, these people are psycho. That's what they are. Sometimes I think they want Obama to get shot. I do. I really think that there are conservative broadcasters in this country who would love to see Obama taken out.

FRANK RICH, NEW YORK TIMES COLUMNIST: I'm just old enough, I was a kid, I remember I woke up in 1963 to the horrible events in Dallas. Even as a kid, I happened to be growing up in Washington, D.C., it was palatable to me all this hate talk about Kennedy and this sort of crazy fear.... But there were a lot of threats. There was a lot of stuff going on that in tone resembles this.

SEN. BARBARA BOXER, D-CALIF.: All of this is a diversion by the people who want to, frankly, hurt President Obama. And by the way I saw some of the clips of people storming these townhall meetings. The last time I saw well-dressed people doing this, was when Al Gore asked me to go down to Florida when they were recounting the ballots, and I was confronted with the same type of people. They were there screaming and yelling, "Go back to California! Get out of here!" and all the rest of it.

CONTESSA BREWER, MSNBC: "A man at a pro-health care reform rally just outside, wore a semiautomatic assault rifle on his shoulder and a pistol on his hip.... The Associated Press reports about a dozen people in all at that event were visible carrying firearms.... There are questions about whether this has racial overtones. I mean, here you have a man of color in the presidency and white people showing up with guns strapped to their waists.

(END VIDEO MONTAGE)

Is it reasonable to ask the question — based on these clips — do they think that a good portion of the American people are the enemy? They are such a danger we need a civilian national security force as well-funded and well-trained as the military?

That's who they think the enemy is and, once again, the media has it completely wrong.

So who is the real enemy?

"Common Sense" has been No. 1 for the last 10 weeks. One of the last chapters is "The Enemy Within" — I wrote it months ago. It doesn't take a genius to figure this out — let me give you this quote:

"It's not just the political class who has mastered the art of deception. There are other potentially deadly masters who will seek to exploit your frustration and sense of desperation. Many will warn you of government tyranny; they'll talk of secret societies, vast conspiracies, shadow governments, and the need for violent action. I urge you to stay away from these individuals and those ideas."

We've showed you the radicals in this administration. Now I'll show you the radicals outside the administration who are being used and will be used by the media and by this administration:

There was the Obama Joker poster creator; the right tried to take advantage of this and added the word "socialist" under it. But the creator of the poster is a Kucinich supporter who doesn't like Obama because he's not left enough.

Then there was that clip on MSNBC: The racist white person (according to MSNBC) who brought a rifle to the Obama town hall — wasn't even white! He was black.

In Denver, Maurice Joseph Schwenkler and an at-large accomplish smashed in windows at the Democratic Party HQ in Denver. Both parties accused Schwenkler of supporting the other, but he's a "trans-gendered anarchist" who belongs to the radical anarchist protest group Denver Bash Back.

While the radicals in the White House may not be connected to the radicals just mentioned, they are connected by the fact that they are radicals.

Remember, Obama adviser "czar" Jones created STORM who believes: "Revolutionaries need to be militant in street actions. As leaders in the fight for liberation, we should be role models of fearlessness before the state and the oppressor."

These are the sort of tactics some of Obama's "czars" know best.

So when we've got a president creating a "civilian force" as strong as the military and an admitted far-left radical in the White House doing this:

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

VAN JONES, GREEN JOBS 'CZAR': Actually, my job is not so dissimilar than my job was before.... What I do, can I make it simple, I'm basically a community organizer with the federal family.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

How else am I supposed to read this? I'm happy to hear any other explanation than "don't call him a czar."

[Lucky9teen]

Sometimes, with what is going on, I often wonder if we're heading toward something like this...

[JoeA]

Those of us who weren’t snowed by this “performance”, knew better. But I believe it was all a set up for Obama to get in, no matter who he ran against.

I agree with you that the election was set up for Obama, and that there are powers-that-be in the background, if not running the show than at least participating in making the decisions.

But there is a major chink in that armor, and that is the eligibility issue. Notice that I didn't say "birth certificate". That's only one aspect of the larger story. By his own admission, in his book and by his Senate vote re: McCain's eligibility, he has admitted that he doesn't meet the qualifications to hold the office. THIS is our ramrod, that we need to use to bring him down.

[Lucky9teen]

Yeh, if you sit there and look at everything Obama stands for and the ties he had while growing up...even his childhood and background there....and then think about where he is today, he is the perfect candidate for the powers that be, to put into place their “ONE WORLD ORDER/GOVERNMENT”.

And it’s no wonder the legitimacy issue is being shoved aside and his records are so easily dismissed and able to remain hidden and why no one is doing a background on him. If he wasn’t the right guy for the powers that be, I think they’d be all over that issue, like white on rice.

[stephenjohnbanker]

“Try 80 million.”

Correct

[CPT Clay]

Its very bad for my blood pressure I believe.

[GonzoGOP]

Sometimes, with what is going on, I often wonder if we're heading toward something like this...

Thankfully the people that actually have the nukes are the most stable, professional, loyal (to the Constitution not the Demagogue), and calm under fire individuals available. I don't trust the Democrats, I'm unsure of the Republicans, but I trust the Military. They place a limit on how far Obama can go. Unfortunately that is fairly far. He can get away with corruption, theft, and dirty tricks without interference from the military. However suspending elections, arming and training a CDF equal to the army without congressional approval or disappearing people, no at that point they will stop him.

If, God forbid, it does happen here it will be a lot more like Honduras. Obama and his cronies will be escorted to the border. There will be riots that will make Rodney King look like a picnic, but in the end things will calm down. No foreign power is going to storm the borders to restore Obama. The UN can't even deal with a bunch of Somali pirates how are they going to take on ten CVN battle groups?

Totalitarian leaders have only been able to take over where their leaders have done one of two things. 1) Secure the allegiance of the military in advance. This is what Hitler, Chavez, Lennin did. 2) They used foreign supplied weapons to overthrow the military of their country. This is what Mao, Castro and Franko did. But who in their right mind is going to risk a toe to toe conflict with the US to ship in sufficient weapons and supplies to overthrow the US Military? Iraq had the 4th largest army in the world and we went through him in 100 hours. So are you going to move 15-20 division worth of tanks across the Mexican border without us noticing? {insert illegal alien jokes here}

Even Washington got no place in his efforts until the French started sending in vast quantities of supplies. And when England and Europe didn't back the Confederacy they were doomed to starve.

[TalonDJ]

Only 100,000? You are short SEVERAL decimal places.

[MrB]

Oh, I was talking about just my zipcode... :)

Actually, I was being conservative, considering that a lot of gun owners would be a bit hesitant about being the “first on the hill”.

[Lucky9teen]

What about all the foreign military that is already on US soil?

8 month marx !

Wait for it.....:o)

[Lurker]

Don't underestimate the enemy

I don't think I am, although who does? LOL.

They could swoop in with large numbers and take every house at once when you least expect it.

I'm not sure where these 'numbers' would come from. Not the local PD. I've had half of them to my house for dinner or beers at one time or another in the last 10 years. Mrs. L serves the Chiefs of Police of every town in the County twice a month.

We've been working the 'intel' side of this problem for the last several years. It's all about relationships.

Or they could pick up all those who they have learned are more likely to be a threat

Most likely they'd be asking me who those people are. Neighborhood Watch Block Captain, CERT Team Leader, Citizens Corps Council Member, we're pretty wired in at the local and County levels.

Maybe the Feds, but they couldn't pull it off without lots of local backup and we'd get wind of that most likely.

One at a time, make you all mysteriously vannish.

Any 'vanishing' I do will be by choice, and that's a fact. If they try that crap on me there will be folks in local hospitals and morgues and not just me.

[GonzoGOP]

The only places where they could be a problem are in Detroit, where supplies for a Muslim takeover could be brought in from Canada, and the Southwest where supplies for a guerrilla operation aimed at a "Reconquista" would be brought in from Mexico. In both cases these are riot and insurgent type campaigns, not full scale invasions. They can cause a lot of trouble and kill a lot of people, but take over by force of arms? Not terribly likely.

A good example are the rebellions that are going on in Tibet and Western China. While some weapons are run in and it causes the Chinese some problems, nobody, not the Russians, Indians, Iranians, Pakistanis or even us are going to actually send in troops to help them.

“Mrs. L serves the Chiefs of Police of every town in the County twice a month.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

No disrespect intended sir but this seems a very unfortunate choice of words. Whatever does it mean?

[Lurker]

She serves them lunch. At least I think it’s lunch.

[LS]

Well, the Civil War is really different, but ok, I concede that a large portion did desert. I think the issue is in the “modern era,” is the military in any way wired to resist a subtle (not really overt) takeover? I don’t know.

[Noumenon]

Weapons and ammunition are useless without the will, the skill and the opportunity to use them.

[Noumenon]

Red and white t-shits. Nice targets.

[snowsislander]

Where exactly in the Constitution is mentioned this power to create such a body?

[Chode]

Where do we draw the line?

When do we say enough??

What will finally provoke spontaneous direction action???

[dcwusmc]

So I take it you are more interested in whining about an election McLame had NO INTEREST in winning than helping to resolve the situation HE HIMSELF helped create? Your priorities are duly noted. Thanks for playing.
