Will President Obama "seize power overnight" in a move to consolidate White House control of the U.S. government?
That's the fear of Fox News anchor Glenn Beck who discussed the issue at length today with another broadcasting powerhouse, radio's Rush Limbaugh.
"I fear this government, this administration has so much framework already prepared, that they will seize power overnight before anybody even gives it a second thought," Beck said.
His comment came as he was analyzing the changing nature of the media since Obama's election, citing the administration's close ties with the NBC network, owned by corporate giant General Electric:
If you watch what could only be called the administration's organ – anything involved with GE or NBC – you've got [GE CEO] Jeffrey Immelt on the board of the Federal Reserve, you have him in the Oval Office consulting not only on health care, but the financial situation, and they are an organ. If you watch MSNBC, I contend that you will see the future because they are laying the ground for a horrible event ... anything from the right, there's some awful event and I fear this government, this administration has so much framework already prepared, that they will seize power overnight before anybody even gives it a second thought.
Limbaugh responded, "I don't think they're going to be able to seize it overnight without anybody knowing about it."

Das macht nichts. He can "neutralize" Joe Lieberman as fast as he can do in Sarah Palin. The simple fact is, history points in this direction. Thugs consolidate power. It's what they do.
Census Bureau, out of Commerce Dept and--into White House basement.
Security/ interrogation of terror suspects--out from the CIA, into the White House basement.
Cabinet, cast adrift and ignored--handpicked unvetted thugs/czars/commissars---White House basement.
Control of auto industry/financial industry--into the White House basement.
Health and energy sectors--- to go into the White House basement.
I could go on, but you get the point.
A few Democrats are mouthing a few things to get out of the heat right now. They'll say anything. Liar-in-Chief Obama himself has made so many false promises to get elected and during the last 10 months that his nose ought to be sticking into Hugo Chavez's butt in Venezuala (maybe it is) or measure another $2 TRILLION (that's 2000 x billion dollars) in length. Again, Beck is getting the goods on these people and calling it like he sees it. That's not retarded.
It's deeply disquieting, but then ... people can always flip over to The View or watch tingly feelings go up Chris Matthews' leg at MSNBC or watch the "clown news" on the Comedy Channel.
The question each of us has to ask is this: how willing are we to gamble with our country and our freedoms? When you voted last November, did you ever even imagine that now the government would own banks? Own car companies? Fire private corporate executives and set their pay? On the way into what even the Obamanists have to admit will be between 9 and 10 TRILLION dollars in debt? (A trillion, of course we have to keep reminding ourselves because these figures are nearly astronomical, equals 1,000 x billion.) $ 10 TRILLION in debt, with the second largest amount being to Communist China? Now that IS retarded.
Did you see Obama's speech during the campaign in Colorado Springs where out of the blue he slipped in a call for a DOMESTIC SECURITY FORCE at least as powerful as our military facing overseas? Really??? (Easy enough: just get all those drug gangs in Maxine Waters' district and suit 'em up, hand out the AK's. Maybe throw in a few million illegal aliens since he'll already be paying for their healthcare with your and my taxes.) Why does Obama want a domestic armed force? Does that suggest a perspective rather like the Republican Guards in Iran? Brown Shirts in Germany? Chavez Death Squads in Venezuala?
I agree that the normal mindset among decent people makes Beck's concerns hard to fathom. We want to think that we're not really seeing what we're seeing. But we are. Beck is the one who's reported that Communist Van Jones, now inserted into Obama's White House, has helped earmark nearly $500 million out of the "bail out" package to go to the Apollo Group & friends who are the ones who themselves drafted the 1,000+ pages of the bill (it didn't just appear out of nowhere ... believe me, it took a long time to come up with that bill, so it must have been in the works for many months prior to the election). Does it make anybody nervous about what the vote-fraud ACORN, Apollo Group and Colors of Change people are going to do with a half billion of your and my dollars? It does me. I must be retarded along with Beck.
Finally, I'm not a Beck fanatic. I never watched him till the last couple of months. Sometimes I disagree. He himself states that he is hypothesizing to figure out what makes sense to possibly explain the otherwise incredible, bizarre things this Obamanist klatch is doing. I hope Beck is wrong. Beck himself states openly and accountably that he hopes he's wrong. And we know that the easiest way to quell dissent is to call people "crazy."
But Beck is facing tough facts - is one of the pathetic few media people (now THEY are, in general, a retarded bunch) who is reporting them truthfully. And he's using his brain without Obama's permission, or yours or mine, to consider what hypothesis, what pattern, could explain those facts. That's not retarded.
You’re right, they bought up thousands if not more. And get this, (I insured one of the lessees) they bought the tower from my client and allowed him to lease it back. They aren’t doing anything with them, but just owning them.
Found this on Drudge yesterday:

Apparently Beck had over 3mil viewers on Monday that are not reflected in the above.
Face it, they are already running a parallel government with the what 7 czars. Its just time now and they will have their crisis and military will shift from the senate to the czars.
86,000 additional deaths would be an increase of <3% of the death rate. Probably lower than that, because many of the people who die of H1N1 will be people who were medically fragile and would have died of something else.
I hate to sound paranoid, but something struck me today. I’ve heard this more and more frequently, but today there was almost an urgency in Glenn and Rush in this statement.
“Who is really in charge? Who is really running this country?”
It was the tone in both of their voices and it makes me afraid that they know something we don’t. That they know Obama really ISN’T running the show. Not just speculation, but serious knowledge and it scares the crap out them.
This has gone beyond “Who is going to raise my taxes” people. We all feel it. Even folks who aren’t ‘into’ politics feel it. There is an undercurrent that is causing everyone I know to be edgy and their sixth sense is picking up on it.
I’m not psychic, but I feel like September is a big month. Like frightening big month. I don’t know about death or anything, but the death of our economy (and vulnerability to other countries) is just as scary.
Ping.
Of course, Soros is just the front guy.
Rather like the company in Georgetown, DC in the late 1990s that was buying up satellite transponders all around the planet allegedly to provide satellite radio programs to poor people in the Third World. Of course, people who can’t afford beans or a bowl of rice may not be able to afford satellite receivers or transceivers .... Anyway, company was owned by a family named bin Ladin. Completely separate, secure global comms? We report, you decide.
You mean Beck had and additional 3 mil viewers - 5,810,000? Or 3 mil total?
Why weren’t they reflected in these numbers, do you know?
And under Executive Order (that has not been rescinded), the Feds can sieze your water supply on your land if the nation is under martial law. I remember reading about that when Clinton signed it. The Federal Government, by EO, established that under martial law, they have mineral rights to any property in the United States.
And what did both Russia and Germany do before they siezed power? They removed the government from office and replaced them with their own men.
Notice how Obama is just soooo ‘inefficient’ that he can’t manage to fill his cabinet? Only 43% filled so far, but how many Czars has he named?
very well reasoned and stated post Unc. after what has happened to this country in just the time frame of the nov. ‘09 elections until now, things we would have never dreamed could happen, if told it was going to, just 2 years ago, have happened. it is retarded to not consider the words of beck and others like him sounding the alarms. an open mind is never an incorrect thinking posture to use.
I trust the Military would take care of business. If not, we can.
Let them try to do it. There are millions of combat vets like us with the particular skill sets, leadership training, experience, motivation, and physical resources required to prevent it. If not prevent, then reverse it. I think the administration is probably smart enough not to attempt it because of that factor.
USMA ‘78
This thread has fairly died but I did want to address your statement/agreement regarding the ‘he needs the support of the US Military”
Where is the military currently? Where are they sending MORE troops? Who are they going to leave over there without a ticket home? Who has Obama been visiting with overseas? Who are they bringing into the states from Gitmo?
Don’t say it can’t happen.......It’s in the works. They are making a move to federalize the National Guard ref: thread from Monday, “S.D. National Guard leader: Pentagon control of local troops would create chaos” from the Rapid City Journal.
I hope the doubters are right........but the facts cannot be argued. (imo)
The Marxist Trotsky was exiled and then assassinated. The head of the SA was done in on the "night of the long knives". Statists eat their own, sometimes first. These "opposition" democrats will be some of the first to go.
Just their acquiescence. SecDef Gates and Admiral Mullen CJCS, fired the commander in Afghanistan, Gen. David McKiernan because he was not sufficiently political. Wasn't willing to stroke the folks in DC, or even go there very often. Silly man thought he belonged in the field with the troops. The last time a commander in the field was relieved was when Truman fired MacArthur. But MacArthur was insubordinate, McKiernan was not.
I think it was Karl Rove who said on his program today,
“Power left unchecked can turn ugly very quickly.”
So true!
- Bio-attack in a city or two? Poison a few water suppies? Send in just two or three pre-symptomatic carriers of anthrax all over some cities passing around the love? Epidemics? Mass panic? Declare national emergency? Easy, child's play.
- Set off two or three large but conventionally powered EMP weapons and knock out two or three critical grids?
- Get inside and set off one explosion at the right points inside one nuclear power plant with threats to do more?
- Just one dirty bomb detonation with threats of more to come?
- Blow up another Federal building or two, make it look like "right wing fanatics" (even use real "right wing fanatics" the way Iraq used McVeigh, etc.)
- Apparent attempt to assassinate Obama (easy to fake or if done by Obama's handlers who're finished with him, actually successful) - then massive race riots all across the country? Take a look again at the Watts tapes.
- Make sure war breaks out between Israel and Iran? Maybe add in a couple of nuclear exchanges? Accompanied by massive Islamic threats or even actual suicide bombings in the U.S. (So easy it's almost laughably easy in our open society)
- Suddenly a dozen or two dozen of our "Religion of Peace" friends come out of sleeper status and blow themselves up along with hundreds of others in a dozen or two dozen places around the country? (Did you see how two black guys with a rifle in the trunk of one car paralyzed the DC area?)
ALL FOLLOWED INSTANTLY (PRE-PLANNED) BY NATIONAL EMERGENCY, MARTIAL LAW, ETC., ETC., ETC.
Probably, at least another dozen scenarios, all achievable, cheap, highly dramatic --- especially if you have inside collusion. Soros dollars. Or millions from Saudi Wahibi fanatics, along with Iranians, blue-eyed blond left-overs from the Radical Left who love Bill Ayers. Or the Russians who are using surrogates to get even for the fall of the Berlin Wall. (Take a look at Shadow World: Resurgent Russia, the Global New Left, and Radical Islam) I wonder what was in that ship that allegedly "disappeared" a few weeks ago sailing out of Russia, and which led to a massive search by Russian and NATO naval forces ... Or the Chinese whose senior military leaders write openly about conducting "asymmetric warfare" against the U.S.
Maybe the worst would be taking control of the airwaves and giving the mike to Rosie O'Donnell, Jeanine Garofolo and Al Franken for 24 hours a day tag-team. People will beg to be put out of their misery. Surrender all their property and civil liberties just for them to shut up.
