Obama signs new Executive Order expanding Homeland Security mission in the U.S.

On Oct. 26, President Obama signed a new Executive Order which expands the role and scope of Homeland Security in states and areas across the country. This order, which establishes a new Security Partnership Council, will have far reaching effects in the overall mission of Homeland Security, and for state and local areas that interact with the Federal agency.

Economically, the Establishing the White House Homeland Security Partnership Council Executive Order will increase funding and resources to state and local governments to fulfill Homeland Security programs and doctrines, as well as increase Federal oversight in the implementation of directives tied to the agencies mission.

His EO’s can be undone!

Will Romney undo them if he is elected?

Once in office the thought of all that power can twist a man. I still think Romney is a "Blue Blood" and has contempt for a vast majority of US citizens. The idea that he will "study" the EO's before terminating any of them will allow him to drag out the issue until we turn our focus toward another crisis of the week and then keep these unconstitutional EO's.

Until Romney shows us he is really for our Constitution (by throwing out all the Czars and the EO's) I will maintain he wants just as much power over us as Obama and the leftists.

I pray that I am totally wrong on this subject.

The purpose of this order is to maximize the Federal Government's ability to develop local partnerships in the United States to support homeland security priorities.

Obama and Janet don't see Muslims as a threat. They don't see the Chinese or Russians as threats. Obama bows to the Saudis - he winks and nods to Putin.

So who is Homeland Security 'protecting' us from? My guess is it's the group they think of as 'extreme' and that's anyone or any group that threatens their political power. In short, Republicans and traditional Americans are the enemy of Homeland Security.

Or we could have kept our own tax dollars within our own states and not had Big Brother spying on us.

Another Friday afternoon news dump. Another EO. Another step closer to a commie takeover. Why not just EO us into sharia law and be done with it? Or push the button. Or cancel the elections. Or declare martial law and round up everyone who early voted an R.

His days look like they’re numbered. His EO’s can be undone!

Romney could get 99% of the popular vote but after Spain and ACORN gets through, the usurper will have won in a landslide. Even if by some miracle Romney does squeak through, there's no way he'll be able to cancel everything. There's just too many czars, head of departments, appointees, etc. who aren't going anywhere come January. They're there for life doing evilness. Has our Congress or SCOTUS lifted a finger? No, and they're not going to because there's too much blood on their own hands and they like their cushy little jobs. They're all going to be doing their darnest to stop Romney at every point. The msm will be dragging him through the mud each and every day. No, these EOs and other hooey is there to stay. We've rounded the bend, thrown out the map, and the reverse gear has been stripped.

>>>Actually, I believe that you (and I) may not be the primary targets. I believe the primary targets may be their own constituents. <<<

This was certainly what happened when the Communists took over Russia. Lenin’s belief was that his opposition had already stated who they are and what they believe, but the revolutionary cadres had demonstrated that they are willing to undermine and subvert the establishment. Therefore, the revolutionaries are the ones who need to eliminated first, lest they decide to try their tactics against the new government in power.

The other category of people to liquidated were those elites who supported the revolution. The term Lenin used for the burgouise supporters of the revolution was “useful idiots.” The useful idiots helped promote the revolution, but once the revolution succeeded, they had to eliminated. Like the revolutionary cadres, the useful idiots had demonstrated a willingness to fight those in power, and that would be dangerous to the party. I’d imagine Bill Mahar would be surprised; I wouldn’t, though.

It’s also important to maintain “purges” throughout the state apparatus so revolutionary fervor and dissent are quashed using terror. When no one feels safe, state officials can act with impunity.

Only after those two groups are killed off will the state come after the real opposition - and even then, some will be left. Remember Goldstein in “1984”? The state needs an enemy to project hatred towards, in the same way Obama actually needs conservatives and the church.

A sick system, granted, but once established, it is hard to eradicate. There are too many “checks and balances,” so to speak, for the system to fall apart easily.

God help us.

Until Romney shows us he is really for our Constitution (by throwing out all the Czars and the EO's) I will maintain he wants just as much power over us as Obama and the leftists.

Bingo. Obama broke the constitutional template which governed the US for all the many years past and Romney will just continue the contemptuous acts that Obama has established by just ignoring Congress and the American people when it suits him. America will deserve what it gets.
