The Big Lie In Georgia ~ Ep. 1427 ~ The Dan Bongino Show

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode in his Show Notes (a.k.a. Newsletter!):

In this episode, I discuss the explosive new revelations about the Georgia election and the ridiculous media spin behind it.

I really do wish that I didn't get behind on posting Dan Bongino's Show Episodes.  It can make it difficult to not "jump ahead" and be talking about the current events.  I'm really in that predicament today, as I just saw this episode, but as I don't live under a rock, I saw some major events today, unfolding before my eyes.  How so I fit in the events I witnessed today in with this writing about Episode 1427?  Or, should I?  I think it would be a good idea, for one main reason.   Our sanity is being attacked, and we need to hear something sane... and with much wisdom!

Yep, in two weeks, things could start happening that are very disturbing.  And I have heard people who  have the same thoughts as I do about how sickening this would be if such complete control of the White House, House, and Senate by the Demonicrats should happen.  We all prayed that it wouldn't happen.  But it did.  Now what do we do?

I guess that we should do what I did:  Pray for His strength and guidance to help us through this!  When I saw the previous episode, I really saw how Dan was struggling, but he got through it.  Bongino isn't letting his cancer hold him back, whatsoever.  Same with Rush Limbaugh.  They both have something in common.  They both have the faith of knowing the Lord, and they both have their love for us (this country!). They battle through their health issues, but keep on doing what they can.

We can do that, too!  The idea is that we have to not hang our heads, but look up, and see that there is always going to be some hope for the future!  The Lord has it in control.  You know, where something happens, somehow miraculously, and that is unexpected?  Oh, like say, the radical Left in the Demonicrat party tries to get something through, and a Democrat or two object to it on moral grounds, and refuse to vote it into law?  Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that can happen!  And then, there is always the Supreme Court that could come save the day, too, if they can manage to show any courage for once.

So, turn off the network news programs for a bit, and start thinking about all the possible ways that this coming dumpster fire in a train wreck may not spell the end of America.  Rioting, or insurrection, or a revolution should not be options.  Just sayin'...

Because I know that Dan Bongino would prefer that I embed the Rumble.com video here, I am now doing that! It finally came to me how to do it, and I am very pleased, because it doesn't require me to use the JavaScript code to do it! So, when you are watching, you will not be seeing it via youtube.com again. Nope, not here. Ever!  No more screwtube embedded video here! Forevs! So, it's now RUMBLE all the way, Dan.  For Dan's show page on Rumble.com, click here.

What’s Really Going Down on Jan 6 at 1P? ~ Ep. 1424 ~ The Dan Bongino Show

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode in his Show Notes (a.k.a. Newsletter!):

In this episode, I discuss the controversy brewing over the powers of both Congress, and the Vice President, in a disputed election, and the continued efforts by Facebook to interfere in the election.

You will definitely want to watch the first segment, in the first 20 minutes of this episode.  It involves the counting of the Electoral College votes on January 6, 2021 at 1:00 PM.  Dan uses the article, in his show notes, from The Epoch Times, "Power of Vice President to Count or Reject Electoral Votes Disputed," to provide the information about what the dispute is.  It has to do with the challenges in Congress of which electors are accepted when there is a dispute.  Dan then suggests that you make your own decision about which side of the dispute you would side with.  Does the Vice President make the decision, if the House and Senate disagree, or is it up to state legislatures, or their Governors?  However, would this not be a great case for the Supreme Court?  Do you think that the Supreme Court would actually accept this legal battle to make a decision, for a change?  I really don't know what they will do if it should come up to them. 

In the next segment you need to see, is when Dan remarks on the latest Fakebook fact-checking on a post he put on his Facebook page.  Hey, guess who's going to win this round of censorship?  I'd put my money on Dan in this one, for the reasons that he gave during this segment.  Hint:  He doesn't care!

There is much more to this episode, so be sure to watch it all if you can!  And have a safe New Years Eve tonight!  I'm hoping that 2021 will be a much better year, although, for many of us, 2020 just made us tougher and more able to overcome a crisis, like I did after the Iowa Derecho on August 10, 2020, that knocked out my electricity for nearly two weeks.

Because I know that Dan Bongino would prefer that I embed the Rumble.com video here, I am now doing that! It finally came to me how to do it, and I am very pleased, because it doesn't require me to use the JavaScript code to do it! So, when you are watching, you will not be seeing it via youtube.com again. Nope, not here. Ever!  No more screwtube embedded video here! Forevs! So, it's now RUMBLE all the way, Dan.  For Dan's show page on Rumble.com, click here.

The Coming Chaos ~ Ep. 1351 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode in his Show Notes (a.k.a. Newsletter!):

In this episode, I address the political chaos unfolding after the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The decision to post this episode was mostly based on the last few moments of this episode. Being that there are so many people subscribing to the Dan Bongino Show channels, both on youtube and Rumble, I am sure many have seen this episode.  So be it.  There are surely a few people out there, though, that haven't yet seen it.  This is for them, and there may be parts you may want to see again if you've already seen this episode 1351.

The fight is coming to our door, for sure. And though this episode came out just after the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, and the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett has been made now by the President, it is still important to know what kind of gaslighting the Demonicrats and their mainstream fake news allies will tell you while this is all going on. The word "gaslighting" is used, as they tend to ignore true history, you know, like it never happens like this. No, it has happened in this country's history, 29 times. Don't worry about a thing, Dan will explain it all to you in this episode.

In the last segment of this episode, I was very happy that Dan mentions the awesome appearance of Jim Caviezel on Fox & Friends Weekend, with Pete Hegseth asking Jim a question.  I am including that Fox & Friends segment that I found on youtube.com after I watched this episode.  It's only about 6 minutes long, and it will be a great bonus for you to see that.  

   

 Or, if you prefer, you can watch it on Rumble.com. 

(I know, Dan Bongino would rather that I use the Rumble.com video embedded here, but I'm a little nervous when it comes to using Rumble's java script embed code in my blogs, so that is why I'm still using the youtube embedded video of the episode so you can see it here on this page.)

This is an Abomination of Justice ~ Ep. 1239 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:

In this episode I address the explosive revelations in the scandalous attack on General Mike Flynn. I also address the resurfacing of a disgusting media attack. Finally, I address an inexcusable attack on the Second Amendment by the Supreme Court.

The impact of what Dan talks about in this episode is going to be huge, especially in the General Mike Flynn case. Gosh, somehow, the Covington law firm that was originally Gen. Flynn's defense team, who did a really bad job, failed to turn over about 6,800 documents to Gen. Flynn's new defense attorney. If it wasn't bad enough that the FBI basically set up and frame Gen. Flynn, and then interviewed him without having an attorney present, and then amended the 302 interview forms that the FBI agents had originally mentioned that Gen. Flynn didn't lie, just wait until you hear Dan explain all of the attempts to cover it up. And it was all so that they could use Gen. Flynn to get to President Donald Trump. 

Starting at about 27 minutes into the episode, when Dan is talking about Congress not going to work because it is "too dangerous," you may want to pause the player, and remove any little kids from the room. You won't normally see Dan quite as agitated as he was at this point. But, for good reason, as you will see and hear!  Too dangerous for Congress to work?  Wait.... WHAT?  Yes, and it should bake your bagels, too.  But, I'll kind of mention it here, Dan is right.  Congress, get your ass to work!

Don't worry, it isn't all bad news, as Dan mentions that a possible vaccine for Coronavirus may be ready for emergency use by this fall.

As always, remember that there are no coincidences in Washington D.C., in The Swamp.  They all know each other, and they all have something to hide.  Please enjoy this episode!

Ted Cruz on how Senate should handle Schumer's 'judicial intimidation' ~ Fox News Video

Republican Sen. Ted Cruz joins 'Fox & Friends' to discuss the government's coronavirus response and Sen. Chuck Schumer's 'unacceptable' comments directed at Supreme Court Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.

Before Schumer's threats to two Supreme Court Justices were discussed, the conversation began with the actions that President Trump has taken to limit the Covid-19 virus (Coronavirus) infections and deaths in the United States. Sen. Cruz (R-TX) tells the Fox & Friends hosts, Steve and Ainsley, that when President Trump froze civilian air travel to and from China, along with screening and quarantine of travelers coming from China and other areas affected by the virus, very early in the outbreak, that it played a major role in limiting the spread of Covid-19 in the United States.

Then the subject of Sen. Chuck Schumer comes up. While the Senate Minority Leader was clearly intimidating two Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States, in front of the Supreme Court, Senator Cruz seemed to go easy on what the punishment would be, when asked by Ainsley Earhardt. Censure of Schumer? Is that all you have, Senator Cruz? It's a federal crime to threaten and intimidate federal officials, isn't it?

If that wasn't disturbing enough, there were people in the Schumer clip holding up signs that read, "Protecting Abortion Access is a Catholic Value," and in small letters at the bottom of the sign, "Catholics For Choice." It is hard for me to even believe any Christian would not value LIFE as a choice! I am praying that those people do not represent a very large percentage of the Catholic church. However, right now, if I was a Catholic, I'd be looking for another Christian denomination, or place to attend church, if the Catholic hierarchy, all the way up to the Pope, doesn't condemn that organization, and excommunicate them.

Whitaker reacts to Ted Cruz scorching Sotomayor over court critique ~ Video ~ Fox News

Former acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker weighs in on Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) scorching Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor's court critique. Former acting AG Whitaker explains that the large number of nationwide injunctions from California district courts and the 9th Circuit rulings have greatly increased the need to go to the Supreme Court, and push back, so that the President's policies can be implemented. Justice Sotomayor's comments drew fire when she stated that the Supreme Court was just a rubber stamp for the President.

Obama ices the cake of his new America ~ By Barbara Simpson

Obama rules. He knows what he wants, and he’ll get it, regardless. He either forces it through Congress and the courts – see Obamacare – or he’ll use his pen and make law by executive order, regardless of whether it’s legal or constitutional.

He’s putting the icing on the cake of his new America. The only problem is that he’s made the cake under the icing rotten, and it will poison all of us unless we get ourselves back on a road to freedom.

It is that critical: We either stop this destruction of our beautiful country, or all is lost.

My memory seems to be much better than Barack Obama's or Nancy Pelosi's, who couldn't remember Jonathan Gruber, let alone, working with him. Yes, I can actually remember hearing Barack Obama saying in 2008, on several occasions, that he would transform America.

Unfortunately, most people did not have a clue what "transforming America" really meant. But some of us knew. Some of us were up-to-date with the news, and heard him tell "Joe the Plumber" Wurzelbacher that he was going to "spread the wealth." But who knew that Obama's "spreading the wealth" ideology also meant spreading our wealth to third world countries? Well, some of us did. We called it what it is: Socialism, on a global level.

And worse yet, some of us were aware that transforming America would mean allowing people into the country that would not assimilate into our American culture, requiring multiculturalism that would get so far out of control. We were aware that the values that made this country great, and free, would become politically incorrect.

Now, as we find out here in Barbara's column, we learn that our concerns were well justified. Some of us will feel vindicated by what the Babe in the Bunker writes here:

I’m probably being too easy on him by calling it “progressive.” In reality, it’s more likely socialist, communist, but no matter what you call it, totally despotic.

The changes Obama has already made, and those that are imminent, are dividing this country in more ways than the average person can imagine and probably in ways that even the above-average, thinking person did not anticipate.

Looming in the near future will be an executive action that will be one more large step towards despotism, and one large step further away from our freedom when Obama goes around Congress to give amnesty to millions of immigrants that broke the law to come to America.  I do not even understand how that is even necessary, being that bringing in refugees from around the world is totally legal for our government to do, and Obama's transformation of America has already been in progress for decades.

If we are going to "reform" our immigration policies, we may want to look at who is being allowed to legally become part of America. Just sayin'...

Obama ices the cake of his new America

Published November 16, 2014

From WND.com Commentary

When I was a kid, there was a phrase that when someone put the finishing touch on something, people would say, “Well that’s the icing on the cake!”

We don’t say that much now, but it would be dead right for what Barack Obama is doing to this country.

Right now, Obama and his administration are obsessed with immigration. His goal is not to reform our laws to make them work and put logical restrictions on the number and type of immigrants we allow across our borders, either as visitors, residents or, ultimately, new citizens.

His goals are to increase the numbers of people from Third-World countries we admit, to legalize those here illegally and forgive them their crimes and to increase the number of so-called refugees from Third-World countries, most of whom have no interest in becoming Americans but who want all the goodies we provide to the less fortunate.

When Barack Obama and his political henchmen get done with his plan to transform this country, we’ll end up being a country of one state.

Victory for Homeschool Family Facing Deportation ~ By Jason Devaney

“When we lost at the Sixth Circuit [in 2013], I told Uwe that he would go back to Germany over my dead body,” Farris said in the HSLDA release. “I’m glad that wasn’t necessary! This is a courageous family and one that deserves to stay here. They are modern day Pilgrims.”

Monday’s Supreme Court ruling all but sealed the family’s fate before Homeland Security stepped in.

“Our entire family is deeply grateful for all the support of our friends and fellow homeschoolers and especially HSLDA,” Uwe Romeike said in the HSLDA release. “I thank God for his hand of blessing and protection over our family. We thank the American government for allowing us to stay here and to peacefully homeschool our children — it’s all we ever wanted.”

The HSLDA says the Romeikes were granted “indefinite deferred action status” and can stay in the U.S. for the foreseeable future. Monday’s Supreme Court ruling showed that the U.S. government does not consider home schooling a fundamental human right; the Department of Homeland Security’s decision goes against that.

Still, the family will not be U.S. citizens. The Romeikes will remain in the U.S. as, essentially, refugees.

“As long as we can live at peace here, we are happy,” Uwe Romeike told the HSLDA.

Victory for Homeschool Family Facing Deportation

By Jason Devaney

Tuesday, 04 Mar 2014 08:35 PM

From Newsmax.com

A homeschooling German family that was granted asylum six years ago and was on the verge of being deported after the Supreme Court rejected its final appeal on Monday will be allowed to remain in the country after all.

The Department of Homeland Security said Tuesday the Romeike family could remain in the U.S. — without receiving citizenship.

“This is an incredible victory that I can only credit to Almighty God. I also want to thank those who spoke up on this issue — including that long ago White House petition,” Home School Legal Defense Association Chairman Michael Farris said in a press release.

“We believe that the public outcry made a huge impact. What an amazing turnaround — in just 24 hours.”

The case stems from the family’s belief that its children should be home schooled. Germany would not allow that practice, and Uwe and Hannelore Romeike — who have raised their children as devout Christians and began home schooling three of them in 2006 — feared they would lose custody of them after German authorities visited the family’s home and began issuing fines. Attending state-approved schools is mandatory in Germany.

Obama's bogus NSA plans mean nothing ~ By Larry Klayman

So President Obama’s sham proposals are just that – a ruse to lull the American people to sleep as his NSA continues to rape and pillage our privacy rights and to act as a sword to keep us silenced as he socializes and Muslimizes the nation to his designs.

It thus falls on us to continue to litigate our cases to a successful conclusion against Obama and the NSA, as this one heroic judge, Richard J. Leon, of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, is the primary hope to protect the citizenry from the tyranny of this administration and its enablers in Congress, short of non-violent revolution.

~ Larry Klayman, from the article

Obama's speech late this last week was given to hopefully quell the fears of the people, and silence those of us who don't feel very comfortable with the NSA spying on us. It was given to allow the mainstream media the ability to say, "There's no more story here. Move along, folks."

It isn't going to work, hopefully. There is the New Media, and this story won't go away as long as we're still here. But wait! That's the ironic twist to the story, though. If we're right, and the government is using unconstitutional spying techniques against us, not to mention using the IRS to target Obama's political enemies to stifle their freedom of speech, we're then going to be in for some major trouble.

What I am afraid of, deep down, is that the abilities of the spy agencies are so technologically advanced, that if they are ever used by a tyrannical government that wants to take away our freedom... And Obama's speech should not make anybody feel anymore confident that it couldn't happen. Just sayin'...

Obama's bogus NSA plans mean nothing

By Larry Klayman

Friday, January 17th, 2014

WND.com


Exclusive: Larry Klayman says NSA will continue 'rape and pillage our privacy rights'

Earlier today, President Hussein Barack Obama addressed the nation regarding the unconstitutional actions of spying on over 300 million American citizens by his National Security Agency (NSA) in an attempt to deflect from his newest “phony scandal.” The president’s so-called recommendations for his NSA and other intelligence agencies are vague, ill-defined and not genuine in any event.

In the wake of a host of these scandals, which now includes the NSA revelations by Edward Snowden, which have captured the nation’s and the world’s attention, and our successful lawsuit that recently resulted in the NSA being enjoined from further violation of our Fourth Amendment constitutional rights, the “Mullah in Chief” was caught with his dirty hands in the proverbial cookie jar and now has to appear to make amends to the aggrieved American people.

WIFLI Briefing for Apr 10, 2012 - The message is simple

Welcome to this edition of Time 2 Escape WIFLI Briefing!

What is WIFLI?
You may be wondering what the acronym "WIFLI" means. I started out by calling these issues the Time 2 Escape Daily, but that didn't work out very well. I quickly learned that putting these issues together on a daily basis was a task I was unable to accomplish. To replace "Daily" in the title, I borrowed the acronym WIFLI, which literally means "When I Feel Like It." Putting together a post on this blog WIFLI works much better for my schedule, and for the higher quality of each issue that is eventually published!

FAIR USE NOTICE: This edition of the Time 2 Escape WIFLI Briefing may contain copyrighted material. Such material is made available for educational purposes only. This constitutes a 'fair use' of any such copyrighted material as provided for in Title 17 U.S.C. section 106A-117 of the U.S. Copyright Law.

Up until just a few moments ago, there were many people that still had hope for Rick Santorum to become the GOP nominee in the election against Barack Obama. I had included that as the first story in the NEWS segment since I began working on this issue of the WIFLI Briefing. I had to append an update just below the story that broke the sad news for Rick's Army that the Santorum campaign was now over.

But the good news is, for the rest of this issue, I included the columns that are very relative to why Barack Obama must not win a second term. The information that you'll read and ponder on as you continue through this edition are just the tip of the iceberg.

There is a problem, however, and that is the Conservatives are going to be very concerned about whether or not Mitt Romney can be trusted to what is right for America, and not sway over to the progressive values and policies that we've had to endure at many times with other Republican Presidents. Will Mitt Romney really work to reduce the size and power of the Federal government? That will be our hope, but there are doubts that have sprung up since the nomination process first began back in Iowa in January.... or even four years ago.

Since my last WIFLI Briefing on March 28, I've had to go through some things that prevented me from being able to get this issue finally published. Just one week ago today, I had the surgery that reversed the ileostomy surgery I had on January 25 of this year. The operation on April 3 was successful. And while in the recovery process, I've done my best to keep on top of the news and get this edition published.

As usual, I had the wonderful support from family and friends to keep me uplifted and positive throughout the surgery and recovery process. I had the joy of watching the Chicago Cubs trying not to lose, and wonderful shows on various Christian broadcasting networks to watch. I had the opportunity to still be able to worship my Lord during the important time of Passover and Easter. At the end of this edition, you'll see one of the videos that I spent much time watching again and again.

I even ended up watching the exciting conclusion of the Masters golf tournament in Augusta, GA. I'm not usually interested in watching golf on TV, but for some reason, watching how Bubba Watson persevered, especially on that last hole in the playoff, it was a special treat.

Another special treat was when I donated my remaining nine ostomy bags to the Community Health Free Clinic yesterday. I hope those will be a great blessing to somebody in need someday.

And as usual, I had time to keep up with Ralph Marston's Daily Motivators. I believe that the Daily Motivator "Decide" on Monday, April 9, 2012, was the most relevant to this WIFLI issue:

Decide that this day will be productive and consequential, and it will be. Decide to rise above the petty distractions, and you’re already on your way.

Decide that there are valuable opportunities in the challenges, and you’ll find those opportunities. Decide to make a positive difference, and you’ll have what is necessary to do so.

There are many factors in life over which you have no direct control. And yet even with those things, you can decide how to handle them.

  ~ Ralph Marston ~ Decide ~ Apr 9, 2012

I am praying that the Conservative Republicans and Independents, and even some Democrats, will unite to fight to keep America free. I'm just sayin'...

NEWS

Could GOP delegate count really be this close?
Santorum camp looks to claim as many as 7 victories during May
From WND ~ By Bob Unruh ~ Published Apr 5, 2012

A report released today by Rick Santorum’s campaign says that the GOP primary tabulations assembled by the media are wrong, and the former Pennsylvania senator actually is much closer to former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney than is being portrayed.

RICK SANTORUM

The report said Santorum will follow what always was expected to be a “difficult” month of April with the possibility of up to seven victories in May, which would leave him “heading into the June 5th primaries with a freight train of momentum.”

The report by Strategic National was released this afternoon by the campaign.

The report says a much more accurate assessment of the delegate totals in the GOP nomination race at this point is 571 for Romney, 342 for Santorum, 158 for Newt Gingrich and 91 for Ron Paul.

The Wall Street Journal, on the other hand, lists 658 for Romney, 281 for Santorum, 135 for Gingrich and 51 for Ron Paul. Real Clear Politics lists 655 for Romney, 272 for Santorum, 140 for Gingrich and 67 for Paul..

The report released by Santorum’s campaign said, “There are a couple of fundamental flaws with the delegate counts that the media keeps that reveals that this race is much closer than they report.”

The report said Florida, Arizona and “possibly Puerto Rico” will be recalculated to disperse their delegates on a proportional basis. Those counts now go wholly to Romney.

... READ MORE ...

UPDATE! At 1:00 PM Central today, 4-10-12, I heard the news that Rick Santorum has suspended his campaign. He is dropping out of the race for the GOP nomination.

Holder assures judge of administration's respect
From GOPUSA News ~ By Pete Yost ~ Published Apr 5, 2012 12:58 pm

ATTY GENERAL ERIC HOLDER

WASHINGTON (AP) -- In a letter written at the request of a federal appellate judge, Attorney General Eric Holder on Thursday offered assurances that the Obama administration respects the decisions that courts make.

The attorney general wrote the letter after appeals court judge Jerry Smith in Texas asked for reassurances that the Justice Department recognizes judicial authority. Smith made the request after President Barack Obama said this week that it would be "unprecedented" for the Supreme Court to overturn a major law passed by Congress like the health care overhaul whose constitutionality it is now considering.

On Tuesday, the judge had said he wanted a letter of at least three pages that makes specific references to the president's statements.

"The longstanding, historical position of the United States regarding judicial review of the constitutionality of federal legislation has not changed," Holder wrote.

COMMENTARY

The Imperial President: Obama Wages War on SCOTUS, Congress
From Breitbart.com Big Government ~ By Ben Shapiro ~ Published Apr 3, 2012

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA

In August 2011, Obama stated, “It's been a long, tough journey. But we have made some incredible strides together. Yes, we have …. We knew this was going to take time because we've got this big, messy, tough democracy.”

BEN SHAPIRO

President Obama’s favorite word, as we’ve learned repeatedly, is “I.” He uses it on a constant basis. He uses it to claim credit and to assign blame. He uses it to cajole and to threaten. He uses it to plead and to prod.

But he doesn’t use the word “I” purely out of ego. He does it because for President Obama, “I” represents the executive branch. And the executive branch, in Obama’s view, is the ruling branch of American government.

President Obama’s latest attack on the Supreme Court is just the latest evidence of his deep-rooted disdain not just for the Constitution, but for the system of checks and balances it represents. Prior to his election, Obama told Americans that we were just days away from “fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” He didn’t mean that simply in terms of policy, although he certainly wanted redistributionist policy to take center stage. He meant it in terms of governmental structure.

President Obama has made it his mission to wield the club against the other two branches of government in a manner unprecedented in American history. Yesterday, Obama, rejecting the heart of judicial review for purposes of his own power, stated, “I am confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress.” That, of course, is precisely what the Supreme Court does on a daily basis: it reviews acts of a democratically-elected Congress. The reason the justices are unelected is that they are supposed to be free of outside influences in defending and protecting the Constitution.

Obama’s Quest To Consolidate Federal Power

Theories abound as to the motives and significance of Barack Obama’s April 2, 2012 tirade against the United States Supreme Court. Perhaps the most plausible, given the timing of the events, is that one of the “justices” sympathetic to the Obama regime leaked word that the Court had struck down Obamacare in large part, or in full. In response, Obama could be attempting to publicly stay ahead of the court, since its decision will not be officially announced until June.

Of course, the primary suspect in this scenario is Elena Kagan, the newest member of the court. It may seem pejorative to suggest that she could so flagrantly compromise the integrity of her office, except that by remaining involved with the Obamacare court case, she has already done just that. Having stumped for Obama’s massive governmental power grab as his Solicitor General, she can by no means be objective in her current position. Yet she flatly declined to recuse herself from the case. So regardless of whether or not she actually divulged last week’s decision on Obamacare, the Court as it currently exists is in a wholly compromised condition.

Nor was the outrageous commentary on Monday the first effort by Obama to wage war on the Supreme Court and all of those irritating constitutional limitations to his power that it currently represents. In the wake of his latest rant, many are recalling how he used the 2010 “State of the Union” message to disparage the Supreme Court for ruling against Campaign Finance “Reform.” Yet his latest outburst reveals something much broader in scope and far more sinister than an episode of mere jockeying for power between two branches of the United States Government.

Obama Is Making the Case For His Own Impeachment
From Townhall Columnists ~ By Tony Katz ~ Published Apr 4, 2012

TONY KATZ

The President’s latest tactic, taking on the Supreme Court’s power of judicial review with a preemptive striking against justices who might contemplate an unfavorable ruling on ObamaCare, following on the heels of last week’s "open mic gaffe" in which he explained Russian President Dimitri Medvedev that he’d have more “flexibility” to sacrifice American security after his re-election, lead to one question: Is Barack Obama making his own case for impeachment?

Obama is no longer fit for the job. I don’t say this lightly. I don’t say it with glee or joy. And I don’t say it with malice. But rather with recognition that the Office of the President must be protected. And the citizens of the United States must protect themselves from a president who is either incapable or unwilling to fulfill his responsibilities to the American people and respect the Constitutionally proscribed limitations on his powers.

Obama’s pronouncement about the Supreme Court was so disingenuous and divisive as alone to warrant impeachment proceedings. Obama, a one-time senior lecturer in constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School, told a group of reporters at a Rose Garden news conference that since the Affordable Care Act was passed by a “strong majority,” a finding of unconstitutionality would constitute “judicial activism.” Nothing could be further from the truth. Judicial activism is when judges exceed their appropriate powers and legislate from the bench. Judicial review, in contrast, is one of the Supreme Court’s primary functions.

Obama, repetition and the art of the non sequitur
From TheBlaze Contributors ~ By Joe "Pags" Pagliarulo ~ Published Apr 4, 2012 at 9:13am

JOE 'PAGS' PAGLIARULO

Most of us outside of Illinois became aware of Barack Obama in 2004. He was a candidate for senator and asked to give a speech at the Democratic convention that year in Boston. He was interesting. A fresh face — in stark contrast to old Washington embodied by the Democrat nominee Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts. He had a certain confidence, youth and ability to grab your attention with how he delivered the speech. It would be a few years before we really started understanding who this man was politically.


In 2007 — when some of the candidates running for the 2008 nominations on both sides of the aisle became apparent — I was brought into New York to do a show for CNN. On the show were: Roland Martin (liberal currently with CNN), Rachel Maddow (liberal currently with MSNBC), and one other man — another liberal whose name escapes me, and me – the lone conservative on the panel. It was assumed I’d be pulling for Rudy Giuliani the former mayor of New York, I guess, because we were both white and Italian. It was odd that the assumption was made. I made it clear, however, that I was not a Giuliani guy because of his stance on abortion. I mentioned I was looking into McCain but was also looking into Obama. Why? Because he was young, energetic and gave one heck off a speech. I still didn’t know much about him other than what I saw and heard — like most Americans. The examination didn’t take long before I found out he was the most vehement supporter of abortion I’d ever heard speak and he was, at his very core, a socialist. He was and is a guy that believes the ruling class gets all the spoils and the rest of us idiots get what the bloated government decides we should get and we should thank said government for the table scraps.

The day Obama snuffs out Internet truth
Exclusive: Erik Rush envisions scenario of frightening totalitarian control this summer
(Be sure to read the complete column!)
From WND Commentary ~ By Erik Rush ~ Published Apr 4, 2012

ERIK RUSH

You awake one morning this summer to a radio alarm that startles you out of bed with blaring white noise instead of music or your news show. Annoyed, you soon discover that you can’t tune in any stations at all, not even on the other radios in your home. It isn’t until you determine that there’s nothing on the television but snow and “Cannot find server” messages online that you become concerned.

You phone your job; at least the phones are working. The receptionist suspects something is amiss, but they’re as clueless as you are as to what the cause might be. As far as they know, it’s business as usual, so you plan to go in.

Outside, it’s quieter than normal. As you leave your home, a brief conversation with a neighbor indicates that this is even more widespread than the city. Again, he’s pretty clueless, but mentions that a friend of his who was about to go out of town called and said his flight had been canceled. In fact, the friend said all flights out of town had been canceled.

No one gets much done at work that day. You learn that the telephones are only operating locally; whether land lines or cell phones, no one is able to place calls outside of the local area. Several co-workers who had work-related trips scheduled also had their flights canceled with no explanation. All day long, people on the job attempt to learn something, waiting for the radio, television, or Internet to go live again, but nothing changes for the remainder of the day. Some go home, others don’t want to be alone, so they remain. You hear a few more sirens than usual, and a call to emergency responders affirm that they don’t know what’s going on either, and they’re only responding to 911 calls.

Your employer is NOT your master
Exclusive: Phil Elmore offers appropriate response for bosses fishing for Facebook logins
From WND Commentary ~ By Phil Elmore ~ Published Apr 4, 2012

PHIL ELMORE

For as long as there have been employers, there have been methods for weeding out the unsuitable candidates and selecting the better ones. What no job applicant ought to hear, however, is the question, “What is your Facebook password?”

The popularity of social networking sites like Twitter and especially Facebook has given these sites a unique prominence in employees’ personal, social and sometimes professional lives. Depending on your relationship with your coworkers, subordinates and supervisors, you may have some of these as Facebook “friends.” There are certain obvious cautions attached to this type of networking. If anyone you work with can see your social media posting “I’m so hung over today” as you head into work on a Monday morning, it’s not a good idea.

This is common sense. The workplace and regulations relating to human resources, hiring, firing and employee/employer disclosures are already a Byzantine maze of overlapping and sometimes contradictory mandates. It should not be the case that a special law is required telling employers they may not ask about your social media, or prescribing dire consequences if they do. For all of Facebook’s rumblings about filing legal action against employers who dare to ask employees for their passwords, it seems unlikely that this would occur except in the most egregious or highest profile of cases. The issue, however, is a valid one.

Who is your employer to demand your private login data?

OUTSIDE of the BOX

Last weekend, we celebrated Passover and Easter, which I call "Resurrection Day." The following video was sent to me by my sister in an email last week. I've watched it multiple times, too many to count. The message is simple: Who am I to deserve God's Love?

Who Am I?

Complete Lyrics:

When I think of how He left His home in Glory
Came and dwelt among the lowly such as I
To suffer shame and such disgrace
On Mount Calvary take my place
Then I ask myself a question, Who am I?

Chorus:
Who am I that a King would bleed and die for?
Who am I that He would pray not my will Thine for?
The answer I may never know, why He ever loved me so
That to an old rugged cross He'd go, for who am I?

Then I'm reminded of His words, I'll leave you never
Just be true I'll give to you a life forever
I wonder what I could have done
To deserve Gods only Son
Fight my battles till they're won, Who am I?

Time 2 Escape Daily for Tuesday, Jan 10, 2012

As I am finishing the production of this issue, Rush Limbaugh is defending what he said yesterday that sparked the lead column in today's issue. The topic of today turns out to be whether some of the Republicans have begun an anti-capitalist theme in order to defeat Romney... I don't know what they think they are doing. Are you kidding me? Aren't the Republican candidates supposed to be trying to impress the Tea Party wing of the GOP rather than the Occupy Wall Street wing of the Communist Party?

Well, of course, most of today's columns that I've linked to will help explain why I'm a little ticked off that Republicans are eating their own, and using Progressive talking points to do so.

But yet, I think you might see a correlation between the first of the links on this page to the very last one, because I did. What Ralph Marston wrote in his Daily Motivator was very relevant to every one of the columns listed here today... especially the one about the Sacketts, a story that is about the amount of unconstitutional authority that had been allowed to a federal agency. Now that this story is out, more people will start waking up. As Ralph Marston suggests, "Instead, use this moment to break the pattern."

I could have posted this edition late last night, but I anticipated that many of you were busy watching the football game, because I was. I'm just sayin'...

Rush Limbaugh predicts 2012 outcome
Radio host says pollsters wrong about presidential race
From WND ~ By Joe Kovacs ~ Published Monday, Jan 9, 2012

RUSH LIMBAUGH

PALM BEACH, Fla. – While polls across America show Barack Obama in a tight race for president with potential Republican nominees, top-rated radio host Rush Limbaugh doesn’t think the outcome of the race will even be close.

“If the election were today, it would be a landslide loss,” Limbaugh said this afternoon. “Let me define landslide: five to seven points. It’d be big. It would be huge.”

“Make no mistake about it,” he continued. “Of this I am as confident as anything. I know it’s not reflected anywhere else in the media and it’s not reflected too many other places in conservative media. But I’m telling you, he’s toast. Just as Jimmy Carter was toast, and nobody knew it until election night [in 1980]."    READ MORE

WND Exclusive ~ Supremes: EPA actions ‘outrageous’
Argument comes in dispute over agency threats to Idaho family
From WND ~ By Bob Unruh ~ Posted Monday, Jan 9, 2012

The government’s actions in a dispute between the Environmental Protection Agency and a husband and wife targeted by the agency when they bought a residential lot in Idaho and started building their dream home are both “outrageous” and “very strange.”

There were comments today from justices on the U.S. Supreme Court about the Environmental Protection Agency’s actions in a fight with Mike and Chantell Sackett, of Priest Lake, Idaho.

Mike and Chantell Sackett

Their case began in 2005 when the Sacketts were working on their dream home. Their land, purchased for $23,000, is about two-thirds of an acre and is about 500 feet from the water in Priest Lake, Idaho. Houses are on the surrounding lots and their land lacked standing water or a creek. They obtained all the needed county permits for their work.

But while they were working on foundation preparations, the EPA agents arrived, claimed the property is “wetlands” and ordered them to stop work and launch a full restoration project that even included installing plants that were not native – at their own expense. They were told after they guarded the land for several years they would be allowed to pay $250,000 to request permission to complete their home.

'It will not be easy, just as it wasn't easy 235 years ago'

From WND ~ Posted January 8, 2012

HERMAN CAIN

Our nation is plagued with crises. We have an economic crisis, a spending crisis, a big-government crisis, an energy crisis, an immigration crisis, a foggy foreign policy crisis, an assault on the Constitution crisis and a moral crisis.

President Obama blames the Bush administration, the Republicans in Congress, big business, rich people and even the American people by saying in essence that we have lost our optimism. That’s what happens, Mr. President, when we have a leadership crisis in the White House.

Sadly, polls consistently show that President Obama has about a 45 percent job approval rating. These 45 percent must be some of the most clueless people on earth, or they have been living in a cave for the last three years. The other option is that they have drunk so much of the Obama Kool-Aid that they do not want to know the truth.   READ MORE

Republican candidates' circular firing squad plays into Dems' script

Moreover, we have been through three years of 23-25 million unemployed or underemployed. Our national debt is now larger than the national economy, approaching Italian proportions. The class warfare rhetoric is beginning to grate. A huge majority believes the nation is on the wrong course.

Who wants four more years of this?

Democratic hopes for 2012 hence hinge on that party’s ability to portray the Republican alternative as unacceptable if not intolerable. And the Republicans have begun to play into that script.  READ MORE
