President Obama signs Executive Order allowing for control over all US resources
examiner.com ^ | March 17, 2012 | Kenneth Schortgen Jr

Posted on 03/17/2012 5:05:01 PM PDT by upchuck

On March 16th, President Obama signed a new Executive Order which expands upon a prior order issued in 1950 for Disaster Preparedness, and gives the office of the President complete control over all the resources in the United States in times of war or emergency.

The National Defense Resources Preparedness order gives the Executive Branch the power to control and allocate energy, production, transportation, food, and even water resources by decree under the auspices of national defense and national security. The order is not limited to wartime implementation, as one of the order's functions includes the command and control of resources in peacetime determinations.

Additionally, each cabinet under the Executive Branch has been given specific powers when the order is executed, and include the absolute control over food, water, and other resource distributions.

The Obama administration appears to be preparing for a long drawn out war in the Middle East, or at the very least, an expected crisis that will require the need to override Constitutional authority and claim dominion over all resources in the United States under the guise of national defense. With the rise in Disaster Preparedness growing for both individuals and states leading up to yesterday's Executive Order, the mood of the nation points strongly towards some event or disaster that will require massive preparations on a national as well as local scale.

IF Obama is reelected, most people will be in for a real shock, because he will go all out. And I’ll make a bet he won’t even be remotely nice about it either.

I agree. I work at a military base and the old guard is being forced out to let younger more inexperienced people take over.

In other words, the ones who know what to do and how to do it are being forced out in favor of someone who might be able to run 1.5 miles within standards but couldn't aim a rifle if his life depended on it.

Saving time by reading four more articles and four more threads seems a bit counter intuitive.

Obama is a traitor to the United States, so HE gets to decide what constitutes a national emergency????
It looks very ugly from where I sit.

You're right, he's a traitor to our Constitution and to the office he holds.

He's gone ballistic with E.O.'s!

He goes around Congress and the democrats in the Senate permit him while the RINOS don't know how to fight or won't.

TEA Party Rebellion!

Will we have an election?

Before making any comments, would FReepers please read the entire contents of the previous 4 threads (and articles) from today and save yourself a little time.


Mind your own damned business. A lot of us aren’t on FR 24/7.

As usual the right hand says "look here its all about contraception" while the left hand consolidates power over the entire nation. Incrementally, a little bit at a time. And now as we get closer to the election, a lot at a time.

These are scary Marxists and this is all obviously very well planned out.Let's hope we can stop it.

In my opinion, unless obama knows he is going to win,no there won't be an election.

In case people on this forum haven't noticed it, he is slowly getting his ducks in a row to strike.

Yep, game over if no one fights him, he cannot by executive order declare himself king, unless the country sits on its hands and watch America die to be replaced by a satanic dictatorial commie antichrist..

Obamma mamba Jamma Lenin Khomeini will declare marshall law before the election, we will have war in the country from those that back his takeover...come Lord!!!

I just want to point out that this article misses the whole of the EO...which includes peacetime.

Sec. 102. Policy. The United States must have an industrial and technological base capable of meeting national defense requirements and capable of contributing to the technological superiority of its national defense equipment in peacetime and in times of national emergency.

Wish there were a way to nail the original thread to the top of Breaking lest it get lost over the weekend.

Thanks again for linking it.

Unfortunately, there's no way to keep any particular thread at the top.

Smiling. I’m mad and upset over Obama’s E.O.’s, but otherwise doing A-OKay! I trust you’re well, also?
We need a TEA Party Rebellion!

“I don’t think our military will stand for it.”

I would not trust the average General to do the right thing.
