Obama administration now demands our personal healthcare records

It’s been said a thousand times: Congress had to pass President Obama’s health care law in order to find out what’s in it. But, despite the repetitiveness, the level of shock from each new discovery never seems to recede.

This time, America is learning about the federal government’s plan to collect and aggregate confidential patient records for every one of us.

In a proposed rule from Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the federal government is demanding insurance companies submit detailed health care information about their patients.

Mirror, mirror on the wall: "Who's the fairest of them all?"

By Charles Krauthammer, Published: September 22

In a 2008 debate, Charlie Gibson asked Barack Obama about his support for raising capital gains taxes, given the historical record of government losing net revenue as a result. Obama persevered: “Well, Charlie, what I’ve said is that I would look at raising the capital gains tax for purposes of fairness.”

A most revealing window into our president’s political core: To impose a tax that actually impoverishes our communal bank account (the U.S. Treasury) is ridiculous. It is nothing but punitive. It benefits no one — not the rich, not the poor, not the government. For Obama, however, it brings fairness, which is priceless.

Now that he’s president, Obama has actually gone and done it.

Rick Perry

We met out-of-town friends last night -- D.C. friends -- and didn't yet watch the debate.

But it doesn't look good for Perry from what Prof. Jacobson has to say:

On appearances, Perry came across once again as ill-prepared, stumbling, and uncomfortable. I cringe at the thought of the Rick Perry from last night’s debate on stage in October 2012 against Obama with the whole country watching. I hope there is another Rick Perry out there, because last night’s Rick Perry would not stand a chance on stage against our smooth-talking, fact-misstating President.

The Rick Perry of lore needs to show up real soon

The really good conservatives (and really good men) in this race are Rick Santorum and Herman Cain. (I'm not all-in for Michelle Bachmann at this time.)

Why is it that they are written off so fast and so easily?

The one person who has been considered to be a shoe-in is Romney, and he is no different than a liberal Democrat.

Mark Steyn is speaking as I'm typing and he's saying the same thing: It would seem statistically improbable that the two lead candidates in the Republican Party are not sounding like Republicans!

Lack of confidence in leaders was cited as a reason for the plunging markets

Buffett Rule debunked: "Super-Rich" Pay Avg. Tax Rates 2-3X Higher Than a Secretary!

WOW!
http://mjperry.blogspot.com/2011/09/buffett-rule-is-based-on-anecdotal.html

We now have a proposal for a tax policy - the "Buffett Rule" - based on Warren Buffett's anecdotal "evidence" of his and his employees' tax burdens.  But that "evidence" seems pretty far-fetched and not consistent with: a) average federal income tax rates available from the IRS, nor b) average tax rates for all federal taxes paid, from the CBO.  Buffett's anecdote has to be an outlier or exception, because under the current federal tax system, the average "super-rich" taxpayer pays taxes at a rate 2-3 times the average secretary.  Instead of raising tax rates, we should probably figure out what kind of loopholes allow Warren Buffet to pay taxes of only 17.4% on his $40 million income last year.

Wow! What a weekend. Between Dennis and Sue Prager telling me, that they admire me and Pat Boone introducing me to the Beverly Hills tea party as the most courageous woman, I am in seventh heaven, I feel we are really making progress, the genie is out of the box. The latest evidence of Obama using Connecticut Social security number in his tax returns and selective service, while e-verify and SSVS, attesting that this number was never assigned to him, is really creating a strong buzz, a total outrage and I believe will ultimately lead to prosecution of ObamaForgerygate and ObamaFraudgate.

Read more...great pictures!

FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT OBAMA'S ID THEFT:

An intensive investigation has revealed the identity of the man whose Social Security number (SSN) is being used by President Obama: Jean Paul Ludwig, who was born in France in 1890, emigrated to the United States in 1924, and was assigned SSN 042-68-4425 (Obama's current SSN) in or about March, 1977.

Ludwig lived most of his adult life in Connecticut. Because of that, his SSN begins with the digits 042, which are among only a select few reserved for Connecticut residents.

Obama never lived or worked in that state! Therefore, there is no reason on earth for his SSN to start with the digits 042. None whatsoever!

Now comes the best part! Ludwig spent the final months of his life in Hawaii, where he died.

Conveniently, Obama's grandmother, Madelyn Payne Dunham, worked part-time in the Probate Office in the Honolulu Hawaii Courthouse, and therefore had access to the SSNs of deceased individuals.

The Social Security Administration was never informed of Ludwig's death, and because he never received Social Security benefits there were no benefits to stop and, therefore, no questions were ever raised.

The suspicion, of course, is that Dunham, knowing her grandson was not a U.S. Citizen, either because he was born in Kenya or became a citizen of Indonesia upon his adoption by Lolo Soetoro, simply scoured the probate records until she found someone who died who was not receiving Social Security benefits, and selected Mr. Ludwig's Connecticut SSN for Obama.

Social Security Fraud, Weathermen Underground, and the CIA

After the Baltimore fiasco, stealing ID was forbidden. Instead we began to build ID sets around documents as flimsy as a fishing license or a laminated card available in a Times Square novelty shop called “Official ID.” We soon figured out that the deepest and most foolproof ID had a government-issued Social Security card at its heart, and the best source of those were dead-baby birth certificates. I spent impious days over the next several months tramping through rural cemeteries in Iowa and Wisconsin, Illinois and North Dakota,searching for those sad little markers of people born between 1940 and 1950 who had died between 1945 and 1955. The numbers were surprising: two in one graveyard, a cluster of fourteen in another. Those poor souls had typically been issued birth certificates—available to us at any county courthouse for a couple of bucks and a simple form with information I could copy from the death announcement at the archive of the local paper—but they had never applied for a Social Security card.

Collecting those birth certificates became a small industry, and within a year we had over a hundred. For years I was a paper-made Joseph Brown, and then an Anthony Lee, remarkably durable identities. My on-paper official residences: a transient hotel in San Francisco and a warehouse in New York.

"There is evidence that Soetoro/Obama may have actually met Ayers when he was eleven (11) years old and living in Hawaii."

Just wait until Trump gets past the birth certificate and onto the issue of Barry O's use of a stolen SSN....you will see leftist heads exploding, because they will have no way of defending Obama.

Although many Americans do not understand the meaning of the term "natural born citizen" there are few who do not understand that if you are using someone else's SSN it is a clear indication of fraud.

Let's all start getting the word out to everybody on our mailing lists.

The Catastrophe of Public Education

History is a race between
education and catastrophe. --H. G. Wells

What H.G. Wells says in his famous statement above is quite true. History is a race between education and catastrophe. Unfortunately, the manner in which education is delivered in the United States, and in other countries of the Western World, through public institutitions, now is itself the catastrophe. Rather than preventing a larger historical catastrophe, public education is now promoting and contributing to just such a thing.

This is why some Republicans are starting to think we need a third party

There is an old adage that defines insanity as “doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results.” What’s worse than insanity is hypocritical insanity, which may be defined as doing the same thing that your opponent did over and over again, while expecting different results. Unfortunately, that is an apt description of the House GOP leadership of late.

Republicans must use their mandate. It’s time to stop reauthorizing Democrat failure.

Rick Perry – Just another RINO?

So let’s go with his instinct and ignore his cowardice. . .

Dick McDonald - Ownership Society Institute

"We will fix the Social Security system so it will be there for our young workers..."

--Rick Perry speaking to the Iowa Credit Union League on 9/16 in Des Moines, Iowa.

This is essentially a major retraction on his “Ponzi scheme” remark at the debate last week.  The USA Today poll said 32% of the people wouldn’t vote for him because of his “Ponzi” characterization so like the politician he is he joined the Democrats and Republicans like Romney to “repair” the un-repairable rather than replace the system with private investment accounts like 15 countries have done following the lead of Chile and the advice of supply-side economist Milton Friedman.

Listen folks the only repairs on the table are a combination of raising the retirement age, means testing and reducing the rate of automatic increases in benefits.  Each is a MAJOR BENEFIT CUT and TAX INCREASE.

America what are you thinking? Are we socialists or capitalists?

In Chile which has been accumulating personal wealth for its citizens in personal investment accounts for 30 years lets 55 year-olds access special computers to decide whether to retire and what insurance annuity they want to buy with their accumulated nest egg. Our politicians are about to raise our retirement age to 75.

The American system Perry wants to fix has no nest egg accumulated for its workers. So he is just another mathematically-challenged RINO in my opinion. I pray that Sarah Palin enters the race and advocates privatization of the system like we thought Perry would do.

LET’S REVIVE THE ECONOMY NOW

Chile followed the advice of Milton Freidman’s Chicago school of economics and is presently running a 7% a year increase in GDP. And what are we running – 0%. If we ran a 7% increase our GDP would skyrocket with the addition of $1 trillion of sales and services each year. That would mean that on each day of the year including Saturdays and Sundays there would be an increase in the sales of goods and services of $2.74 billion dollars we didn’t have the day before.

Now think about this. How many jobs would be created to service an increase of sales and services of $2.74 billion dollars a day? Assuming $50,000 of sales per employee then we would add 54,800 new jobs every day 24/7 or 20 million jobs annually. Assuming $100,000 of sales per job we still would be adding 10 million jobs.

In other words privatizing Social Security in Chile was a massive job creator.

AND WHAT DO WE NEED IN THE USA TODAY?

JOBS, JOBS, JOBS.

My Rise Up America plan needs to be considered nationally. It does for the poor and middle-class what “trickle down” did for the rich and as a kicker creates millions upon millions of jobs immediately. Forget that it will create a $4 million nest egg and a $33,000 monthly retirement check for the average household in the future think about saving our economy today.

Only new investment capital creates new jobs in the private sector.  Why should we have to rely on the rich to supply that capital when the people – remember those of, by and for the people – can surely invest their payroll taxes in the economy and create their own jobs.

Can we get out of the sandbox and go back to class?

Can’t we measure up to Chile.

Come on! Let’s roll!

The first 12 facts are about the United States, and the last 13 are about the rest of the world...

Oil companies: taxes vs. profits

Source: Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Energy Information Administration

Figure 1 illustrates the magnitude of government tax collections versus industry profits between 1977 and 2004. During this period, the 29 largest domestic energy firms earned a collective $630 billion after adjusting for inflation. These profits varied dramatically—from a low of $7.9 billion in 1995 to a high of $42.6 billion in 2004—based upon world market demand, supply, and international events.

In contrast, the taxes paid or remitted by domestic oil companies have been consistently far greater than their profits and now total more than $2.2 trillion (adjusted for inflation) over the past quarter century. The largest share of those taxes is federal and state gasoline excise taxes. In 2004, governments collected $58 billion in gasoline excise taxes. Overall, governments have collected $1.34 trillion in gasoline excise taxes since 1977.

The folks who are getting free shit don’t like the folks
who are paying for the free shit because the folks who are paying for
the free shit can no longer afford to pay for both the free shit and
their own shit. And this is creating a shitstorm.

The folks who are paying for the free shit want the free
shit to stop, and the the folks who are getting the free shit want even
more free shit on top of the free shit they are already getting.

Now, the people who are forcing the people who pay for the
free shit have told the people who are receiving the free shit that
the people who are paying for the free shit are the problem.

So, the people who are getting the free shit resent the people who are paying for the free shit because of the smears by the people who are forcing other people to pay for the free shit.

Can you believe this shit?
We have let the free shit giving go on for so long that there
are now more people getting free shit than paying for the free shit.

Now understand this, all great democracies have committed
financial suicide somewhere between 200 and 250 years after being
founded. The reason? The voters figure out they could vote themselves
free shit by electing people who promised to give them
free shit in exchange for electing them.

The United States officially became a Republic in 1776, 231
years ago. The number of people now getting free shit outnumber the
people paying for the free shit. We have one chance to change that in
2012. Failure to change that spells the end of the United States as we
know it.

Some of you know that I was recently "retired" as the 162 Fighter Wing Commander.

The decision was made by Brig Gen Mike Colangelo, the Arizona Air Commander, who replaced me because he "just wants to change the culture at the 162nd" -- not for cause or performance or any other reason.

This officer never commanded anything bigger than an Air Control Squadron, and somehow he wound up in charge.

Heck, the guy probably got beat up in grade school every day.

Important message from the National Inflation Association

The Truth About Obama's Jobs Bill

On Thursday evening, President Obama gave a speech to a joint session of Congress discussing the jobs situation here in America. The purpose of Obama's speech was to convince the American public and their elected representatives in Washington to support Obama's new $447 billion 'American Jobs Act', which has a cost that is 49% larger than the $300 billion act most people were expecting. NIA believes this bill will do nothing to reduce unemployment in America and that it is nothing but another stimulus bill in disguise that will add to our budget deficits.

Obama's bill proposes a $4,000 per employee tax credit for businesses that hire somebody who was previously unemployed for 6 months or more, at a cost of $8 billion. At the same time, Obama wants to extend emergency unemployment compensation (EUC), which allows Americans who have exhausted standard unemployment benefits that last for 26 weeks to continue receiving them for between 20 and 53 additional weeks. EUC benefits are set to expire at the end of 2011 and continuing them through the end of 2012 will cost U.S. taxpayers $49 billion.

It is totally absurd for Obama to give employers money to attempt to hire people he is simultaneously paying to stay out of work. What makes this even more outrageous is that employers have an incentive not to hire recently laid off workers, when only those unemployed for 6 months or more will bring them a $4,000 check. If this bill is passed it will make the unemployment situation in America far worse than it already is.

NIA has heard from members who own farms and have positions on their farms available, but can't find anybody interested in working for them and filling the available positions. Every time they hire somebody to work on their farm, the worker purposely does a poor job and tries to get fired. Their sole purpose of getting a job is to convince their local unemployment agency that they are trying to find employment so that they can keep receiving unemployment benefits, when in reality they are trying to take advantage of the system.

Obama is right that any future recovery will be driven by our businesses and our workers, but if Washington wants to make a positive difference the only step it should take to improve our people's lives, is get out of their lives. It is impossible for any piece of legislation including Obama's 'American Jobs Act', to improve the employment situation here in America. Obama needs to remove any government programs already in place that interfere with the free market. NIA believes that if the U.S. eliminated all unemployment benefits and also got rid of the minimum wage, it would cause the unemployment rate to return to healthy levels.

U.S. employees earning up to $106,800 annually currently pay a 4.2% payroll tax that is scheduled to revert back to 6.2% in 2012. Obama not only doesn't want employee payroll taxes to raise back up to the historical level of 6.2%, which went into effect in 1990, but he wants to further reduce them to 3.1% for 2012. The annual cost of this employee payroll tax reduction is estimated to be $175 billion. In an attempt to help small businesses, Obama also wants to cut employer side payroll taxes in half from 6.2% to 3.1% on the first $5 million of payroll, while eliminating employer side payroll taxes for new hires. The annual cost of this employer side payroll tax reduction is estimated to be $65 billion.

NIA believes all payroll taxes should be eliminated. Americans who make payroll tax payments today are paying for other Americans to receive entitlement programs that they will never receive. Social Security and Medicare are already on the verge of insolvency. By the end of this decade, NIA believes Americans receiving Social Security checks will be receiving checks that don't have any purchasing power and aren't worth cashing. Americans would be much better off if they were able to use the money they currently spend on payroll taxes to accumulate physical silver instead. Only Americans with enough savings in physical gold and silver will be able to retire in the future.

Obama's bill also provides $35 billion in state and local government aid, $50 billion in infrastructure repairs, $10 billion for a national infrastructure bank, $30 billion for school modernization and repairs, and $15 billion in housing expenditures. Unfortunately, the jobs Obama's bill will create for construction workers, teachers, veterans, and the long-term unemployed, are only temporary jobs that will vanish after the bill expires, and the money printed to pay these workers will steal from the purchasing power of American workers who already have jobs today. There is no doubt about it that America's infrastructure is decaying and we need to build new roads and bridges, but this is something that we can't afford to do until we return to an economy that is based on production instead of consumption.

We need to return to a trade surplus and begin paying off our debt before we can afford to make investments into infrastructure. China can afford to build newer airports and faster railroads because they have a $254 billion trade surplus and $3.2 trillion in foreign exchange reserves that they are better off spending on infrastructure improvements than keeping parked in U.S. dollars that will soon be worthless.

Obama says that everything in his bill will be paid for, but NIA wonders how? The government is claiming this isn't another stimulus bill and Obama didn't mention the word stimulus once during his speech. The truth is, NIA believes all of the measures in this bill will have to be paid for by borrowing and printing money, which will increase our budget deficit, expand the money supply, and lead to massive price inflation.

The jolt that Obama is trying to give to the economy he admits has stalled, is the same economy he tried to jolt with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which put the U.S. $787 billion deeper into debt. NIA said at the time this stimulus bill was passed that when it failed to produce the results the government said it would, instead of admitting that stimulating the economy failed and reversing course, they will say the stimulus didn't work because it wasn't big enough and attempt to pass further stimulus bills by making new false promises.

Obama is lying to the public just like Congress recently did in regards to its bill to raise the debt ceiling. Congress deceived Americans into believing that in return for raising the debt ceiling so that the government can continue operating as it is today, "spending cuts" would be made to lower future budget deficits. These so called "spending cuts" turned out to be minor reductions to very large spending increases, with even these minor reductions not beginning until early 2013. Government spending is set to rise every single year until the dollar doesn't have any purchasing power left.

Obama said in his speech last night that, "while corporate profits have come roaring back, smaller companies haven't." The reason this is true is only the largest banks and the companies they do business with have direct access to the Federal Reserve's cheap and easy money. If the Fed didn't bail out all of the banks on Wall Street that made risky leveraged up bets with other people's money for the sole purpose of paying their employees huge bonuses, smaller banks would have acquired their assets in bankruptcy court for pennies on the dollar and be prospering today. Instead, small banks that made sound decisions were punished for doing the right thing. The Fed has made it even more difficult than ever for them to compete with the large banks that should be out of business.

If the Fed and Treasury didn't bail out Wall Street, the world wouldn't have come to an end like former-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson conned everybody into believing. The truth is, we would be better off today because the bad assets would have been liquidated. The bad assets that caused the financial crisis of late-2008/early-2009 still exist today. The main difference between back then and now is, the size of the Fed's balance sheet has doubled to $2.862 trillion due to the toxic assets they purchased, and the world is now flooded with excess liquidity of U.S. dollars.

It is impossible for the U.S. not to feel the consequences of the money we squandered fighting wasteful wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and maintaining military bases all around the world. It is impossible for the U.S. not to feel the devastating effects of interest rates that have been left artificially low for way too long. When you have an artificial boom, that boom will eventually go bust and the more that is done to prop a phony economy up that is built on U.S. consumers spending money they don't have, the harder the economy will fall in terms of high unemployment, high inflation, and a total lack of purchasing power that will cause a permanent decline in the U.S. standard of living.

The fact that Obama felt the need to demand that Congress pass his bill 17 times in 1 speech, shows that nothing positive will come out of this bill for the average American citizen.  The only people who will benefit from this bill are bankers on Wall Street who are in line to earn huge fees on the infrastructure deals that get funded by the new national infrastructure bank. While the official U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) unemployment rate in August was 9.1%, down from its peak in October of 2009 of 10.1%, the real rate of unemployment including both short and long-term discouraged workers is now 22.8%, up from 22% in October of 2009 and a new high since the Great Depression in 1933. By further impeding the free market, Obama's bill will further misallocate what little resources Americans still have left before hyperinflation arrives.

It is important to spread the word about NIA to as many people as possible, as quickly as possible, if you want America to survive hyperinflation. Please tell everybody you know to become members of NIA for free immediately at: http://inflation.us

George W. Bush: Flight 93 Memorial Speech, September 10, 2011

PBS has purposely altered a transcript containing a major gaffe by the President

Barack Obama has gone to Congress asking for more money to spend. The President, in a rambling and tedious exercise mixing blame with demands, made quite a few dubious statements in laying out the case for Congress to vote for the plan which as yet does not exist. Much like Obamacare, Congress must ultimately vote for the bill to know what is in it.

At one point Mr. Obama made a major gaffe; he identified Abraham Lincoln as the founder of the Republican Party.

Lincoln did not join the Republicans until 1856, over two years after the party was founded. The first Republican convention was held in Ripon, Wisconsin in 1854.
Such a gaffe would have brought huge amounts of ridicule and derision on George W. Bush, but in the case of Obama the media yawned.

PBS alters transcript to hide Obama gaffe

Impeachment of the president is justified on constitutional grounds if any of the following 12 questions is answered in the affirmative:

Memo to Congress: Impeachment probe needed now!

If the president is not guilty of any of these crimes, then a thorough investigation by a House committee with subpoena power will clear the air. If he is guilty, then the U.S. House of Representatives has a moral obligation to vote for a resolution of impeachment, and the U.S. Senate must bring him to trial.

She had her hand on the throttle of an F-16 and she had her orders:Bring down United Airlines Flight 93

...10 years later, she is reflecting on one of the lesser-told tales of that endlessly examined morning: how the first counterpunch the U.S. military prepared to throw at the attackers was effectively a suicide mission. “We had to protect the airspace any way we could,” she said last week in her office at Lockheed Martin, where she is a director in the F-35 program. Penney, now a major but still a petite blonde with a Colgate grin, is no longer a combat flier. She flew two tours in Iraq and she serves as a part-time National Guard pilot, mostly hauling VIPs around in a military Gulfstream. She takes the stick of her own vintage 1941 Taylorcraft tail-dragger whenever she can. But none of her thousands of hours in the air quite compare with the urgent rush of launching on what was supposed to be a one-way flight to a midair collision.

Dealing With Muslims (1388 years...)

Two Black Americans were elected to congress this cycle, and both are Republican. Col. West is from southern Florida. He won in a walk.

This new Congressman was an extremely popular commander in Iraq. He was forced to retire because during an intense combat action a few of his men were captured. At the same time his men captured one of the guys who were with the Iraqis who captured his men. 

Knowing that time was crucial and his interrogators were not getting anywhere with the prisoner, Col. West took matters into his own hands. He burst into the room and demanded thru an interpreter that the prisoner tell him where his men were being taken. The prisoner refused so Col. West took out his pistol and placed it into the prisoner's crotch and fired. Then the Col. told the prisoner that the next shot would not miss. So the prisoner said he would show where the American service members were being taken. The Americans were rescued. Someone filed a report on incorrect handling of prisoners. Col. West was forced to retire. Col. West was just elected in November 2010 to Congress from Florida. During the elections he was part of a panel on how to handle or how to relate to Muslims. You will see his answer here explaining in just over a minute the truth about Islam.

The largest, most successful wildlife conservation program in the world, the Federal Wildlife Restoration Program, is fueled by hunters

Hunters Contribute Billions To Conservation More Than All Other Special Interest Groups

Georgia Department of Natural Resources

SOCIAL CIRCLE, Ga. --(Ammoland.com)- The largest, most successful wildlife conservation program in the world, the Federal Wildlife Restoration Program, is fueled by hunters.

Over the past 70 years, hunters nationwide have contributed more than $6.8 billion dollars to wildlife conservation efforts. In Georgia alone, since 1939, hunters have contributed more than $145 million for wildlife conservation in Georgia.

“The Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Program is the most successful wildlife conservation program in the world and serves as a financial cornerstone to the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. It benefits all wildlife species, conserves and restores habitat and helps enhance wildlife conservation through research,” said Alex Coley, Wildlife Resources Division Game Management assistant chief and Federal Aid Coordinator.

“Through this program, America’s hunters continue to provide the most substantial source of funding for wildlife conservation and management in the United States.”

The program was established through the Pittman-Robertson Act in 1937. Through lobbying efforts in Congress, America’s hunters created this act as a way to fund conservation and management of the nation’s wildlife. Wildlife Restoration funds are accumulated from excise taxes on firearms, ammunition and archery equipment. This excise tax is levied at the manufacturer’s level, collected by the Federal government, and distributed to state wildlife agencies to fund wildlife conservation and management programs. The amount of money each state agency annually receives is determined by the number of paid hunting licenses and the land area of the state.

The Wildlife Resources Division uses Wildlife Restoration funds for various types of programs, including restoring habitat and improving wildlife populations, conducting research, monitoring wildlife populations, operating more than one million acres of wildlife management areas that benefit a diversity of wildlife species and provide wildlife-related recreational opportunities, providing information to landowners on how to manage their property for various species, conducting hunter education classes and building and maintaining public shooting ranges.

Obama Regime Arming U.S. Street Gangs via ATF

Posted by Ann Barnhardt - September 6, AD 2011 12:26 PM MST

I didn't compose that headline lightly. The "Gunwalking" isn't limited to Mexico and Honduras, guys. I said this earlier - EVERY ATF office needs to be torn to pieces looking for "gunwalking" because this is how the Obama regime could arm their "army" of street gangs and muslims. I specifically said that the Detroit and Chicago offices needed to be scrutinized. And sure enough, David Codrea is breaking the story today that the Indiana office has indeed been intentionally walking guns to Chicago street gangs - not "could arm" but "HAS ARMED". Look at a map. Indiana is sitting immediately between Chicago and Detroit.


And by the way, the Chicago office head Andrew Traver - who HAD to have known all about the Indiana operation - is getting ready to be installed the head of the ATF in Washington.


I'm telling you, buy long guns and ammo NOW. Obama is going to do everything he can to bait a civil war. We now have proof that he is arming inner-city gangs.


Pass this link far and wide. I'll Tweet both links as well.

Rick Santorum in Los Angeles

He came to the San Fernando Valley Republican Club last night since he was already in town for tonight's debate. He is so very impressive as a decent, smart, and very politically experienced patriot. He is the son of a coal-miner from Pennsylvania, has seven children, and loves this country passionately. I honestly believe that any Sarah Palin supporter would find this man to be the person, if Sarah doesn't run, that represents their values and their goals for our country. From what I have seen, I believe he would be a first-class leader and take the country in the direction of freedom and back to the values of our Founding Fathers. He made a point that we should not forget: it is the Declaration of Independence that tells who we are as a country and we should not focus only on the Constitution.

Gallup: Uninsured Have Increased Under Obama and Since Obamacare Was Enacted

(CNSNews.com) - The percentage of American adults who lack health insurance coverage has not only increased during the presidency of Barack Obama, but it has continued to increase since Obama signed his signature piece of legislation last year mandating that by 2014 every American carry health insurance, according to a Gallup survey released today.

Here is a list of canards that Ron Paul seems to continually repeat...

1) Ron Paul claims we have spent "trillions" on the war

Through the end of 2012, we will have spent around $1.4 trillion (not trillions), which amounts to about $120 billion per year average. 

By comparison Total Outlays projected for 2012 per the Whitehouse is ~$3.7 Trillion with Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid accounting for ~$1.5 Trillion of that number (see: http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/Overview).

2) Ron Paul and/or his followers claim the War or Wars are "Unconstitutional" since the Congress has never made a formal declaration of war. 

Yet Congress did approve the military action in Iraq and Afghanistan. 

Bill Summary & Status
107th Congress (2001 - 2002)
H.J.RES.114

Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d107%3AH.J.Res114:

Iraq Resolution was challenged in court in 2003 in Doe v. Bush and failed.

Doe v. Bush Opinion by Judge Lynch 3/13/2003
http://www.ca1.uscourts.gov/pdf.opinions/03-1266-01A.pdf 

Excerpt of opinion:

The Constitution reserves the war powers to the legislative and executive branches. This court has declined the invitation to become involved in such matters once before. Over thirty years ago, the First Circuit addressed a war powers case challenging the constitutionality of the Vietnam War on the basis that Congress had not declared war. Massachusetts v. Laird, 451-10-F.2d 26 (1st Cir. 1971). The court found that other actions by Congress, such as continued appropriations to fund the war over the course of six years, id. at 34, provided enough indication of congressional approval to put the question beyond the reach of judicial review:

"The war in Vietnam is a product of the jointly supportive actions of the two branches to whom the congeries of the war powers have been committed. Because the branches are not in opposition, there is no necessity of determining boundaries. Should either branch be opposed to the continuance of hostilities, however, and present the issue in clear terms, a court might well take a different view. This question we do not face."

 3) Ron Paul claims that Israel's "blockade" of Gaza is an Act of War 

Video: Ron Paul denounces Israel’s flotilla raid, of course
http://hotair.com/archives/2010/06/03/video-ron-paul-denounces-israels-flotilla-raid-of-course/

Yet, if he read the Oslo Accords, he would understand that Israeli control of the Gaza coastline was part of the agreement.

Hamas’s useful Americans
http://www.jpost.com/Magazine/Opinion/Article.aspx?id=229401 

Excerpt:
"Pursuant to the Oslo Accords negotiated and signed between Israel and the PLO, the Palestinians agreed that the Gaza coastline would be placed under Israeli control and that no foreign ships would be allowed closer than 12 nautical miles from the shore. Israel demanded this out of concern over widespread import of conventional and unconventional weapons into Gaza. Had it not been for this provision, there would be no Palestinian Authority today, and Israel would not have withdrawn from Gaza.

Because of this agreement, the Gaza maritime blockade is consistent with international law, and violating it constitutes a hostile action against the State of Israel. As such, Israel is permitted to utilize all necessary force to repel any seafaring intruders.

The UN’s soon-to-be-released Palmer Report, which investigated last year’s flotilla, will confirm that this is true."

4) Ron Paul claims that a "million" Iraqis have been killed because of the Iraq War.

Here is a recent interview of Ron Paul by Megyn Kelly on Fox News.

Megyn Kelly Interviews Ron Paul - FoxNews.com
http://video.foxnews.com/v/1113357701001/is-press-snubbing-ron-paul/ 

Ron Paul is likely referencing an erroneous Lancet "Study", which claimed there was between 400,000 and 800,000 Iraqis killed in the Iraq War. The Study was funded in part by George Soros and was found to be statistically biased.

Here is the full analysis:

Data Bomb

Here is a more accurate source and the website is also anti-Iraq War so the organization that runs the site is not attempting to down play the number of Iraqi deaths.

Their estimate is no greater than 112,000. 

Iraq Body Count
http://www.iraqbodycount.org/ 

5) Ron Paul claims that Israel can deter Iran by threat of nuclear retaliation, i.e., MAD or Mutually Assured Destruction. 

Iran is run by Islamists who seek the return of the 12th Imam, the Mahdi. They believe that the Mahdi will return when war, chaos and lawlessness engulfs the earth.

They are not afraid of dying for Islam. These are not people that are afraid of Mutually Assured Destruction or the death of their own people. They seek it.

It's the equivalent of threatening to kill a suicide bomber. MAD is definitely not a deterrent.

Here is a video produced by the Iranian Government:

6) Ron Paul, also claims that Islam/Sharia is not a threat. Islam/Islamists are already trying to undermine our country and are having some success. Europe already has major problems with Islam.

7) Ron Paul claims Islam is attacking us because of US foreign intervention and he believes in a "Jeffersonian" foreign policy of non-intervention and avoiding "foreign entanglements".

Ron Paul claims that 9/11 was because of our "intervention" in the Middle East, i.e., "Blowback". He says Islam is attacking us because we are "bombing them" and that Iraq is an illegal war. Of course it doesn't matter that Congress passed a bill authorizing military intervention in Iraq, which was challenged in Federal Court and the Judge declined to intervene (see above).

He says he espouses Jeffersonian Foreign Policy as his excuse for his isolationist views. Of course history is always somewhat inconvenient in that Thomas Jefferson sent Navy ships and Marines to fight the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslim Pirates from the Muslim Barbary states of the Ottoman Empire (Islamic Caliphate). They were attacking our unarmed merchant ships and enslaving our sailors, even though we were paying tribute to the Barbary States to not attack us.

Before Thomas Jefferson became President he and John Adams where sent to London to meet with the Ambassador from Tripoli.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Barbary_War

Excerpt:
"In1786, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams went to negotiate with Tripoli's envoy to London, Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman or (Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja). Upon inquiring "concerning the ground of the pretensions to make war upon nations who had done them no injury", the ambassador replied:

'It was written in their Koran, that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful to plunder and enslave; and that every muslim who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise. He said, also, that the man who was the first to board a vessel had one slave over and above his share, and that when they sprang to the deck of an enemy's ship, every sailor held a dagger in each hand and a third in his mouth; which usually struck such terror into the foe that they cried out for quarter at once.' " 

Also see: Barbary Wars
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/barbary.htm

Excerpt: 

"In May, 1801, the United States refused to succumb to the increasing demands of the Pacha of Tripoli; in return, the Pacha declared war against the States. While Tripoli was not a strong power and little effort was necessary to watch and blockade it, the fear was that the other Barbary powers would join against the United States. The United States sent naval squadrons into the Mediterranean under the slogan of 'Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute!' Under the leadership of Commodores Richard Dale and Edward Preble, the Navy blockaded the enemy coast, bombarded his shore fortresses, and engaged in close, bitterly contested gunboat actions." 

This "tribute" the US Government was paying the Barbary states was as high as 20% of the US Federal Government budget. The Muslim Barbary States likely considered it a "Jiyza" Tax. A Jizya tax is a tax that Muslims charge subjugated Kuffar (non-believers, i.e., Christians and Jews), meant to be so onerous as to impoverish the Kuffar.

Then when Thomas Jefferson became President he sent Naval ships to deal with the Muslim Pirates and Congress authorized it but did NOT issue a formal declaration of war (sound familiar).

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Barbary_War

Excerpt:
"In 1802, in response to Jefferson's request for authority to deal with the pirates, Congress passed 'An act for the Protection of Commerce and seamen of the United States against the Tripolitan cruisers', authorizing the President to '…employ such of the armed vessels of the United States as may be judged requisite… for protecting effectually the commerce and seamen thereof on the Atlantic ocean, the Mediterranean and adjoining seas.' 'The statute authorized American ships to seize vessels belonging to the Bey of Tripoli, with the captured property distributed to those who brought the vessels into port.'" 

Someone should ask Ron Paul what was the United States doing to the Islamic Barbary States in 1786? Were we bombing them with hot air balloons or maybe.... carrier pigeons? Were we stealing their oil (at monopolistic prices)??

Why would they be attacking our unarmed merchant ships and enslaving the sailors??

8) Ron Paul claims we do not have trade relations with Cuba

A History Lesson for Ron Paul
http://frontpagemag.com/2011/08/12/a-history-lesson-for-ron-paul/ 

Excerpt:
"Ron Paul, in an exasperated tone during the Iowa debates, said: “All these trade sanctions!…This is why we still don’t have a trade relationship with Cuba.”

Ground Control to candidate Paul: according to figures from the U.S. Department of Commerce, the U.S. has transacted almost $4 billion in trade with Cuba over the past decade. Up until two years ago the U.S. served as Stalinist Cuba’s biggest food supplier and fifth biggest import partner. We’ve fallen a few notched recently, but we’re still in the top half. Furthermore, the U.S. has been Castro-controlled Cuba’s biggest donor of humanitarian aid, including medicine and medical supplies for decades.

Ground Control to candidate Paul: For over a decade, the so-called U.S. embargo has merely stipulated that Castro’s Stalinist regime pay cash up front through a third–party bank for all U.S. agricultural products; no Ex-Im (U.S. taxpayer) financing of such sales. (You’d really, really think a libertarian would approve of this?) Enacted by the Bush team in 2001, this cash-up-front policy has kept the U.S. taxpayer among the few in the world not screwed and tattooed by Fidel Castro."
