Barack Obama's Civilian Army
http://www.glennbeck.com/ ^ | August 28, 2009 - 1:01 ET | Glenn Beck

Posted on 08/28/2009 9:14:20 AM PDT by 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."

Everything about every policy that 0bama has implemented in the last 7 months has been

de facto reparations.

I hope they have what it takes and have no fear.

I hope they don’t wait too long.

The oath they took should be kicking in about now.

There is no doubt about zero being a commie.

Obama has already begun creating his personal private army. It is called ACORN.

Actually I think the New Black Panthers are gonna play a big part in this. Why do you think charges of voter intimidation were dropped in Philly?

DC sniper.

ONE team of two.

What would a couple of million teams of two do?

The Jews in Germany during the 1930’s said the same thing. History shows they were wrong, and dead.

As a historian, let me remind everyone this has never, ever happened before, not in Lincoln's most "tyrannical" days

Well there were some military men like Thomas J. Jackson, Robert E. Lee, James Longstreet and a few of their close associates who gave it one heck of a good try. Do you honestly think that if Gettysburg Day 2 had gone the other way and the army of Northern Virginia had marched on Washington they would not have "Removed" Lincoln? Take a look at the percentage of active duty West Pointers who went rebel, it is over 50%. Only two garrisons in the entire south fired a shot, Forts Sumpter and Pickins. The rest turned over their facilities, weapons and supplies in tact to the rebels.

The big Union generals like Grant & Sherman were all out of the military when Sumpter was fired on. The best way to look at the Civil War is that the active duty army went largely Confederate. The Navy and the reserves went largely Union.

Over 45 young soldiers have died in Afghanistan this month. Does anyone care anymore? All this time spent on a POS like Kennedy yet this miserable communist POTUS doesn’t give the troops the time of day, has no plan, and his Government media hides this travesty. Parents, wives, kids, brothers are living a real tragedy daily and it is never mentioned because they have to give Obama good press.

Now POS Communist POTUS only needs a civilian Army to rise up against his own people.

Is he just keeping our soldiers over there dying to keep them out of his way?

I am so disgusted. We cannot let this happen.

"Several of Obama’s Czars were at this years meeting. What is their agenda? A one world government."

Yep. That's the eventual goal. And Islam has further ambitions to add to that. There are quite a few other elitists behind the scenes as well, such as Maurice strong,(power corp) who has spent his entire life working towards this end with the Rockerfellers, and others, all wanting to rule over their little part of the kingdom.

He’s a puppet in the sense that he’s doing following THEIR plan, it’s just better for them, that he’s in cahoots with them.

"No matter how many he ropes into the brownshirt brigade, it won’t be enough. Think DC sniper. One at a time, down they go.

About 15-20 million of them?

That'll take a while.

Not if there are 15-20 million sniper teams.

Add another one to your list:

Why does Obama need to have the ability to disconnect privately held computers from the internet for any “emergency” he might wish to proclaim?

going to stop the brown shirts when they go street by street, door to door confiscating arms.

In my neighborhood they wouldn't make it to the third home.

"Obama has already begun creating his personal private army. It is called ACORN."

Exactly. And he scored them a 100 billion dollar kick in the pants too. I don't know why some people don't see that ACORN is, and has been Obama's (and the other RATS who are behind all this)" militia and it has been trained, organized and expanding for many years now, into just about every state. It's HUGE!

Did you know General Petraeus attended this year’s meeting? I was shocked to see that name on the list.

In Article I, Section 8, of the Constitution, states that The Congress shall have Power

Congress is the key. If Obama tries to mobilize the CSF by presidential order or by order of the department of homeland security the Military is bound by the constitution to disarm and disband it.

As i pointed out if Congress if forced to confront that arming this force will cause a Civil War they will never approve it. I don't see men like Leiberman wanting that kind of blood on their hands. We only need a few senators to get queasy about starting a full scale civil war and this won't pass the senate. And the Military can stop Obama from raising and arming it without congressional approval.

You have to understand whom the left views as “the enemy”.

The Chinese, the Russians, and the Jihadis
don’t represent as big of a threat to leftist elitist power

as do the conservative citizens of their own country.

THAT is whom this initiative is aimed at.

Well, similar to our 9-11 response, the towel-heads and their ‘american’ enablers will be quite surprised at the aggressiveness with which we respond. This country is primed. We need a thorough house-cleaning, anyway.
