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.

I agree!

I truly believe people like Boehner, McConnell and other spineless wussies on our side are as much a threat to our Republic as the current dictator and his scum socialist party.

To me all this relentless abuse of the truth is so unnecessary. We can beat this bum just by laying waste to all the regimes lies. From why gas is at $4.00 instead of $2.50 to where zero was when the seals took off in the chopper to take out osamma.It’s so easy. Just build on our knowledge, tell what is really happening and when people find out the truth the vote becomes soooo obvious.

This nation has turned its back on G-d. We have not acknowledged Him as Creator. We are under His judgement, and it will get worse.

So sad but true.

The political mentality of putting getting re-elected over the fate of one's country has become the saboteur of the nation.

You know, I remember reacting the same way in 2000 after Bush won over Clinton. There was all the talk about Clinton declaring some kind if emergency, halting the elections, FEMA camps, black helicopters. Then there was when Bush was aon his way out in 2008, same thing. Now hearing this...although with the NDAA, this bill and the recent anti-first amendment bill...I don’t know anymore.
