At West Point, Obama talks of a new 'international order'
Washington Post ^ | May 22, 2010 | By Michael Shear

WEST POINT -- President Obama on Saturday pledged to shape a new "international order" as part of a national security strategy that emphasizes the president's belief in global institutions and America's role in promoting Democratic values around the world.

"The international order we seek is one that can resolve the challenges of our times,'" he said in prepared remarks. "Countering violent extremism and insurgency; stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and securing nuclear materials; combating a changing climate and sustaining global growth; helping countries feed themselves and care for their sick; preventing conflict and healing its wounds."

I just want things to be the way I remembered. I know enough with nostalgia and deal with reality. Thank you for your frank insight and tough talk.

Everyone,
Please send this link of Ronald Reagan’s Presidential acceptance speech to everyone on their email list. IT IS IMPORTANT. Although it is is 30 years later, you can substitute Carter for Obama in almost every sentence. But it is 100 times worse. Please do this, it is our future that is at stake.

He is a Traitor! His attempt to destroy the nation and the Constitution is planned. He is no a fool, but a TRAITOR.


Precisely.

Alex is a good researcher, I just can't stand that low growl in his voice.

I did suffer through his interview with the late great Aaron Russo (check it out on youtube, it's very good, and heartwarming, too).

I hope you’re right- but in gthe last several years- I’ve begun really losing faith in people after watchign them vote in one democrat after another all the while thinking ‘perhaps this time it will be different’- it is NEVER different- the dems ALWAYUS do the same stinkign thing- Tax Tax Tax and run all over our constitutional rights-

But hopefully we as a country have seen just how dangerous obaqma and his commie administration is now that we’ll vote those lying sacks of dung out of office very soon- I truly hope there is a massive turnaround in this country before it’s too late to reverse the damage done by those thugs in the whitehouse

We also now have political correctness [whatever that is]


Political correctness = slavery. It is intimidating (for some) and prevents discourse.

0bama has thrown our Traditional Allies under the bus.

He intends to form this New International Order with New Allies, from the Muslim/Hispanic/Third World.

No, I’m not being sarcastic.

As the ultimate Narcisist, he intends to remake America in the Image of Himself: Half American/Half Third World.

The Islamic Marxist Kenyan wants to be king of the world. Being president of this country isn’t enough for the boy afflicted with malignant narcissism.


The New World Order/One World Government cannot come about as long as the United States is a soverign and strong nation. 0bama wants to destroy America. Case closed.

Obviously, a new international order, capable of even addressing those things, which a crack-pot President lists, would spell the death knell, not only for individual freedom; not only for traditional ethnic cultures, the world over; but for most of the innovation, that in previous generations has tended to actually benefit all of mankind. Why?

Because innovation always poses a threat to someone, some interest. The stultification of individual initiative, just in bringing down an international curtain over the nations that have proven most protective of individual rights, would already be profound. Those enforcing the destruction of the nation States, would naturally feel threatened by those who did not get the message.

Those of us who see a form of treason involved in the Administration's failure to secure our borders, must seriously consider if the intent is not simply to undermine, and shortly destroy any sense of ethnic continuity among the American people--leaving us intellectually naked to resist an intended World Dictatorship. What other possible interpretation is there for that failure?

As a school boy, I was a devoted student of Sherlock Holmes. Holmes' theory of deductive reasoning comes instantly to mind. If you eliminate every other explanation for a phenomenon, whatever remains, however unlikely it may seem, must be the solution.

If anyone has another interpretation for the failure (coupled as it is with denunciations of those who try to step into the breach, as in Arizona) can anyone suggest? I do not want to shout treason, if it not be such. So please, I invite suggestions of an alternative explanation.

Obama wants to go after "violent extremist" - it's the newest liberal buzz phrase.

Got a donation plea from the ACLU in today's mail - and sure nuff they're also going after virulent extremism. Here's what it said...

ACLU Donation envelope: Find out what you can do right now to confront the virulent EXTREMISM TAKING HOLD across America.

And just what is that "Virulent Extremism"? It's NOT Al-Qaeda. Nope. It's not radical Muslims shooting up a base - or trying to set off a bomb in New York. NOPE. Not even close.

The virulent extremism the ACLU is asking people to fight is their fellow AMERICANS. Americans who happen to have different beliefs than theirs. And what beliefs make one a "virulent extremist"? The letter states the BIG THREE: those who want religion in the schools... those who would "erode" a woman's right to an abortion... and third - those who are "denying fundamental right, such as the right to marry for gay and lesbian Americans"

In short - US. WE who are conservatives - we are the "virulent extremists" in the liberal mind. The phrasing is very close to what Obama was pushing at West Point today ... think about it.

Yes! But I really am serious, about my query at the end. Can anyone think of any reason a loyal American could possibly defend our border being undefended, while those who should defend it, denounce those trying to fill the void created by that failure to defend?

We have all become so used to the outrageous from Washington, our capacity to rationally judge has been stunted.

Combating changing climate? How crazy is this man?

Crazy as a fox! By "combating" the regime means to pull of the greatest scam and heist ever via cap and trade. It's about power, money and tyrannous control period.

Beck has done an outstanding job at exposing this $10 trillion scam.

If you haven't seen the shows they are a must see!

More and more, the ACLU is abandoning their Fabian deception, that has pretended a purpose to defend freedom, particularly the right to dissent, while in fact undermining freedom, for this sort of nonsense.

For more background on the ACLU and its onslaught against actual religious freedom, consider this Chapter from my Conservative Debate Handbook:

The First Amendment

We are all the targets of a very vicious onslaught against all the foundations of the heritage that those of us at this venue revere.

It's creepy and scary.

"When 0 talks about globalism and sustainable development, it’s all tied into climate change and global redistribution of wealth and the establishment of an unbelievablly wealthy and powerful RULING elite,.."

I am so SORRY that unbama got to speak to these wonderful men and women at our army academy--West Point.

I am SO SORRY that someone as spoiled, who has never served, who does not even LIKE our military, was up there on that podium spouting his schuck and jive. I suppose the West Point grads are too gracious to ignore the slimely hand of congrats uhbama must have offered, but I bet more than half of them were not proud to have to shake that hucksters paw.

What Obama stands up for and places his hand over his heart for when he visits Moscow and licks Putin’s boots:

1.
Unbreakable Union of freeborn Republics,
Great Russia has welded forever to stand!
Created in struggle by will of the peoples
United and mighty, our Soviet land!!

CHORUS:

Glory to our great Motherland, mighty and free,
Bulwark of people, in brotherhood strong!
Party of Lenin, the strength of the people
To Communism’s triumph lead us on!

2.
Through tempests the sun rays of freedom have cheered us,
Along the new path where great Lenin did lead!:
To a righteous cause he raised up the peoples,
Inspired them to labour and valorous deed!!

3.
In the victory of Communism’s deathless ideal,
We see the future of our dear land,
And to her fluttering scarlet banner,
Selflessly true, we always shall stand!!

"...combating a changing climate..."

Anthropogenic Global Warming is disproven. And it is not appropriate for the unscientific political marxists to be demanding something to be 'done' when there is nothing needing to be 'done'.
