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."
“Well, if they keep wearing those red shirts, it will be a lot easier to sort them all out.”
They won’t need a uniform, this blow-up is going to fall along racial lines. They wanted it. They’ll get it.

“It is the manners and spirit of a people which preserve a republic in vigor. A degeneracy in these is a canker which soon eats to the heart of its laws and constitution.” —Thomas Jefferson, Notes on Virginia Query 19, 1781
I guess we will start seeing soon enough however, just who we are going to have from every state that will form the next Republican majority (wishfull thinking allowed) in both houses.
That outcome will pretty much tell us how 2012 will work out.
Its time to stop getting more guns. Get more ammo and more range time.
Also, get more face time with friends, who feel the same way you do.
I wish those who make moronic statements like that would just STFU instead of blaming the voters who refused to drink the GOP koolaid....if the best that the GOP can offer is the guy who destroyed the GOP majority in both houses while the GOP held the White House then the GOP has no business demanding any votes!
When the best any party can do is offer someone who 'isn't the opponent' as the best qualification they deserve to lose.
Yes elections have consequences...may the GOP learn not to pee on our legs and tell us it is raining!
“I’m guessing that a civilian army may be used in a way the the military army is prohibited by law. So we would have a Geheime staatliche Polizei In addition to local police in your town there will be Federal police. Since they will be civilian they likely be un-uniformed..In another word, “spies”. “
Yup, I, and other Freepers, have thought all along that the Obama Regime would model their CDF after the Iranian Basij. Scary times we are living in!
Everyone start wearing 3-cornered hats! The tri-corn hats should be a requirement for all the tea parties too! I’d like to see the entire 9/12 march in washington with everyone wearing the hats and marching to the sound of drums and flutes. What a site and impression that would make.
They’re all black, recruited from prisons and street gangs, inner cities
Thanks.

Are all these ACORN nutcases black? sure looks that way.
certain minorities are more concerned with getting even than love of country...
The Gestapo would be an unlikely comparison -- more professional than this group of thugs is likely to be.
A better point of reference would probably be the S.A. -- Sturm Abteilung -- or Brown Shirts. That is, an organized and official street mob.
So, it seems that you are happy with your decision not to have voted last November.
I heard an interesting story while on active duty in the Army.
At the height of the Watergate investigation, Pres. Nixon was getting pretty flustered. At one point in a meeting, he was reported to have said, “I can pick up the telephone and thirty minutes later 70 million people will be dead”.
I heard that the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs spoke to the NORAD commander and told him, “If you get any funny orders from the White House, please run them by me first”. There was real concern that Nixon might crack up under the strain.
I think any “funny” orders or extreme actions by Obama would trigger a Concernogram from the military leaders. Confiscation of firearms would definitely trigger such concern.
I still think that Obama will not attempt an overt attack. I believe that they will bypass Congress by using administrative rules. For example, I would not be surprised to see lead ammunition and lead azide ruled as “polluting” by Obama’s EPA. He will swear it was not his idea and act like he cannot overrule his own bureaucrats.
Let ‘em bring it on!
Please add me to your CW2 ping list. ;)
