Could our government be overthrown?

[trc123]

If it's not a lawful order (supported by the Constitution) they would refuse.

[HappyChristian]

This would be the reason for the non-military civilian "national defense" group.

I think, unfortunately, that some of the kids in the military today might follow orders that aren't constitutional...for the very reason that they don't know what the constitution says! And if it's a living document, it changes with the times anyway (I know it isn't supposed to, just what people are being taught...).

[trc123]

I'm thinking more the Officer corp.......they are smart enough to know.

[bzmomo7]

HC, the civilian militia he's been talking about (that he wanted it just as powerful and well funded as our military) was the first thing that came to my mind, too. :eek

[IM4given]

Sounds like he intends to create a lot more "job opportunities" for our young people with the National Civilian Security Force...the CHANGE has begun.... :sad

Will the Real Barack Obama Please Stand Up?

Gregory D. Lee

Like the decades-old television game show, To Tell the Truth, it?s time for Barack Obama to stand up and tell us exactly who he is and what he intends to do as president now the election is over. Is he a centrist who can reach across the aisle to Republicans, a pseudo-conservative tax cutter or a socialist who wants to redistribute wealth?

The last few weeks of the campaign have been revealing. Obama professes that he will cut taxes for ?95%? of all Americans, yet only about 60% of Americans pay federal income taxes. He says anyone making under $250,000 will definitely receive a tax cut; or is it $200,000 like he said in his infomercial? That figure may even deteriorate down to $150,000 as Joe Biden has said. Which is it? Either way, the math doesn?t add up. When Obama lets the Bush tax cuts expire in 2010, your taxes will go up for sure, assuming you pay income taxes.

And, when confronted with an innocent question by ?Joe the Plumber,? Obama was most candid. With his off-the-cuff remark about ?spreading the wealth around,? Joe successfully unmasked the covert socialistic candidate for what he really is. In Obama?s mind, when you pay no federal income taxes but receive a check from the IRS, that?s somehow a ?tax cut.? In my mind, it?s welfare under the guise of spreading the wealth.

If you voted for Obama, then I?m sure you?ll like his picks to replace the two most liberal Supreme Court Justices who are expected to retire soon. Why not expand the number of Justices on the Court and fill them with his cronies? The Constitution doesn?t mandate a certain number. Because liberal Democrats control both houses of Congress, what will stop them?

Obama also said that he wants to create a ?Civilian National Security Force.? At a campaign rally he said, ?We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we?ve set. We?ve got to have a civilian national security force that?s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded.? Can anyone explain to me what that is? He wants this new bureaucracy to have the same funding as the Pentagon. That?s another $400-plus billion right there. But wait! He wants to cut the Pentagon?s budget, so maybe it will only be $300 billion more after he cuts the Department of Defense 25% as Rep. Barney Frank says will happen with a Democrat majority in both houses of Congress.

Either way, the concept is scary and reminds me of a secret police force that will take conservatives to a re-education camp for compulsory lessons on sharing, tolerance and why abortion is a good thing.

On the energy independence front, Obama said that the coal industry will be bankrupted because of his policy of capping greenhouse emissions, and this would ?necessarily? raise energy costs. So you can count on higher electricity costs as well as higher taxes, because he will not expand domestic oil drilling.

The American system allows the opportunity for an extreme liberal, closet socialist, who has American haters and domestic terrorists as friends, and advocates higher taxes, a weaker national defense, direct talks with dictators, and has the middle name of ?Hussein? to be president. What a country.

At least I will have four years of material to write about.

trc - yes, the officers would know. But in this day of renegades, many of the young soldiers may choose to ignore their orders...hopefully not, since my son is going for a commission!

im4 - interesting article! His last statement was interesting...will he really be able to write truthfully about BO? Not if the Fairness Doctrine comes out, and BO continues handling dissent the way he did during his campaign!!!!

[Colin Stolzer]

If you think the military will refuse on constitutional grounds you should think again and have a look at what happened in New Orleans.

Great article, IM. :thumb Unfortunately, the majority of the American public was to foolish to see any of this coming. How people can be so stupid is beyond my comprehension? I can understand our unsaved youth who have grown up in a public school system filled with lies about the USA. I just don't get grown adults. I mean....what planet were these people born on? Rather---do they live inside of a vacuum? It simply amazes me that this 221 year young nation is so blinded by world----yet most will say aloud..."God Bless America." How is God going to continue to bless a nation that is so greedy, selfish, lazy, arrogant...and of course, the list goes on and on. Unbelievable, that a nation can get so caught up with "emotionalism." The majority of Americans will obviously believe anything but the truth---the LORD JESUS CHRIST---and His Holy Word.

Just a shout out to ALL the blood bought born-again believers who have been relentlessly living for the Lord Jesus Christ. I admire all "true" Christians. Please don't blame yourselves, Christians...for the sins of the unsaved and the saved that voted for this wicked President Elect. I know you say "we have gotten what we deserve." NO!! God will punish a whole nation for the sins of others, because when He is finally through putting up with abomination after abomination---He will cast His judgment on His creation and His Children. I am honored to be serving the Lord of Lord and King of Kings. Thank you Jesus/God and Christians for my salvation 5 years ago. I pray that I may continue to grow in His Holy Word and serve our Heavenly King.

Revelation 2:26-28...26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. 28 And I will give him the morning star. KJV 1611 AV.

Probably only by legal means. I would see a "coup" as only being possible by God's intervention as every elected official' date=' all military members and civilian law enforcement members take an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States and they take that very seriously......[/quote']
I wonder how much they really care about the constitution when very clearly it states the conditions for running for the presidency of the USA. One of those conditions to be met is that the candidate must be a natural born citizen. OBAMA is not such an individual, as he was born in Indonesia, NOT hawaii. Do you see how quickly that was thrown out, and/or ignored. You can look for OBAMA to do the same with anything else he doesn't like. ..... or, should I say::: why would he not do the same??????/

[IM4given]

Apparently Obama understands the US Constitution very well....



Just like those nine Islamic Terrorists knew how to fly airplanes... :sad

[pneu-engine]

I agree that he knows it. However, I think he will twist and distort it to suit his own whims and desires. It could happen very easily. If there is a national emergency such as 911 or Katrina, then he might declare martial law and then who knows what he would do.

Absolutely. :thumb Obama knows our US Constitution inside/out---upside/down---forwards/backwards, and ever way around. He won't hesitate to declare "martial law"....in any national emergency. That would happen in a heartbeat.

[John81]

Don't get too worried. They said the same things about Bill Clinton. It was feared by many that Clinton would use or create his own Y2K episode in order to declare martial law. Many even put forth the fear he would refuse to leave office, using some fake threat and martial law to stay in power.

No matter who is in the White House, God is in control and He wants each of us to abide in Him, to pursue personal holiness and to submit to His will in our lives so we can be His useful instruments.

When you read the following you'll see why the Constitution of America means nothing to president OBAMA.

What is America's Dangerous Future?
by Frosty Wooldridge

05/22/2007

In tomorrow's America of suffocating political correctness and clashing cultures, unrestricted immigration will prove a merciless weapon of war. It's importing conflicting languages, barbaric rituals such as female genital mutilation, deadly diseases like tuberculosis and leprosy, cultural antagonisms and loss of a cohesive national identity. California is our national harbinger of things to come. It is called Third World Momentum.

The Roman Empire fell to immigration of the Vandals. Likewise, Celtic Britain, Germany's Prussia and Serbian Kosovo.

I traveled to Los Angeles recently. I felt like a stranger in my own country as few spoke English. Whole areas have been turned into city-states of foreigners where Americans are not welcome. I might as well have been in China, Korea, Mexico or Bangladesh. All businesses carried their own languages. One store near Garden Grove in Los Angeles, Aztlan Gallery, featured anti American T-shirts, ?DECOLONIZE: UNITED STATES OF AZTLAN? and ?GO BACK HOME GRINGOS.? The voting ballot offered 20 languages on it for the governor recall election. Whose country is this, anyway?Continued

What is our dangerous future? Where once immigration furnished men and women for building a nation, today, illegal and unrestricted mass immigration make a few wealthy at the expense of American citizens. Our own corporations are 'outsourcing' and ?offshoring? jobs to Third World countries -- thus leaving American citizens in unemployment lines. Honored meat-packing companies that were built by Americans -- bus illegal immigrants from Texas into food processing plants in Austin, Minnesota. Along with their cheap labor come drugs, TB, Leprosy and honor killings. Austin's schools struggle with foreign languages and Austin kids suffer. Our own Congress renewed the H-1B visa, which gave 890,000 American jobs in the past 10 years to foreigners. Little wonder our economy augured into the ground like a plane that lost its wings.

In Sequoia National Park three years ago, Mexican cartels ran a $150 million dollar drug-growing plantation with armed guards who threatened backpackers. In Florida, a Muslim woman sued our country so she could disobey our laws because she refused to have her picture taken for a driver?s license. A naturalized citizen Muslim soldier in U.S. Army uniform fragged and killed his commanders at the beginning of the Iraq War. Over 30,000 men in Army uniform aren't American citizens. The INS freed illegal alien Malvo who promptly killed 17 Americans. Via illegal immigration of 20 million, we endure 7,000 new cases of leprosy added to our shores. We suffer a $8.5 trillion national debt and 5.1 percent national unemployment, but we spend $68 billion resettling 2.3 million immigrants each year when 14 million of our own citizens can't find a job. Immigrants send $56 billion of our dollars -- $15 billion to Mexico, $25 billion to Latin America, $16 billion to Asia -- back to their home countries -- thus draining us of hard currency. This transfer of wealth is making this country poorer by the day. Consumer debt tops $2 trillion. The average credit card sustains a $9,260.00 debt.

In the cultural realm of a First World Country, do we need rituals where a baby girl has her sexual being cut out of her in the form of 'clitorectomy'? Can we afford everyone wearing a mask for driver?s license pictures? Can we afford losing our English language and become the Tower of Babel? Do we condone, by being politically correct, 'cock fighting' and ?horse tripping? brought to us by Third World cultures? What about the new strain of tuberculosis spreading across America because illegal immigrants work in fast food and hotels? It's called MDR TB (multiple drug resistant) and has no cure. According to a report last year titled: ?THE PATIENT PREDATOR: TUBERCULOSIS? by Kevin Patterson, 16,000 cases of this strain of tuberculosis migrated from Mexico in the past four years. Illegal immigrants? children number over one million in our public schools. If your children contract it at school, will they survive? Two million TB deaths worldwide annually don?t bode well.

California citizens die in emergency rooms because hospitals suffer an onslaught of immigrants who can't pay. Because of no family planning in their countries of origin, this endless line of immigrants is pushing us toward 200 million added people vying for diminishing resources past the mid century. For starters, how about a glass of water in the drought prone West?

This is not about race, creed or color. It?s about too many people and an unsustainable society in the long term. It?s about accelerating unsolvable problems. Minimum population projections add four to five million people to every state in the union. California will add 20 million. Can your state add millions of people without horrific consequences?

It?s important that you enter this accelerating debate on our nation?s future. What is at stake? Our children, the viability of our nation and our way of life. It?s about law and order along with citizenship. In short, it?s about America. It?s about you.

America of 2008 isn't even close to being the America it was coming our of World War 2.

I might say, some changes has been good, but most have not in America.

I'm proud we have an America that does not discriminate against people who are not white as they once did.

Back in World War 2 there were many in this world who loved and respected America, but now there are many who hate her although she does treat minorities much better now than them.

But I feel the Bible explains all things that are coming to pass before our very eyes, the time has come where people will call evil good, and call good evi.

Actually the only thing that matters for us who are of God the Father is if we put our whole trust in God and deny our self and truly follow Jesus. To many who call their self Christian seem to much of their hope with this world. Remember we should back God, promote God with all our mind, our heart, our soul, our body,our life, our strength, our resources becasue our conversation is in heaven, not of this world, our only hope is in heaven, not this world. For its true, out only hope is in the Father & His Son, this world and everything upon it will burn.
